CUT TO: Miami, Florida. People are walking along the street as cars pa** by them. CUT TO: MICHAEL, TOM, and NERI walk down a path. A bu*tONMAN reading a newspaper turns and looks at them. CUT TO: The inside of a hotel room. ROCCO stands in front of the door as MICHAEL opens it. MICHAEL shakes his hand and pats him on the back. NERI shuts the door as MICHAEL rubs his eyes. MICHAEL Al -- could you get me a wet towel? [MICHAEL takes off his jacket.] KAY know I'm back? [TOM nods.] What about my boy -- did you get him something for Christmas? TOM I took care of it. MICHAEL What was it so I'll know? TOM Well, it was a little car with an electric motor that he can ride in -- it's nice. [MICHAEL pours himself a gla** of water. NERI comes to him with a wet towel.] MICHAEL Thank you, Al. Fellas, could you step outside for a minute? [ROCCO opens the door and steps outside, NERI follows.] Where's my brother? TOM Uh -- ROTH got out on a private boat, he's in a hospital in Miami. Had a stroke but he recovered okay. (then) Your BODYGUARD's dead. MICHAEL I asked about FREDO. TOM Uh -- I think he got out -- he must be somewhere in New York. MICHAEL Alright -- I want you to get in touch with him -- I know he's scared -- tell him everything's all right. Tell him I know ROTH misled him -- and he didn't know they were planing to k** me. [TOM nods.] Um -- they can come in now. TOM Uh -- there is something else. MICHAEL What? [TOM sits down and looks nervous.] What -- come on, what? TOM KAY had a miscarriage. She lost the baby. [MICHAEL is stunned and there is a long pause.] MICHAEL Was it a boy? TOM Mikey, after three and an half months -- [MICHAEL is enraged.] MICHAEL (screaming) Now can't you give me a straight answer anymore! Was it a boy! TOM I really don't know.
