Arpreet's Week 3: Hero's Journey

This major scene really stood out to me. It was after Santino got killed by Barzini's men, where Michael, Vito, Tom Hagen, Clamenza and even Carlo were in the same room. The entire gang was sitting in a circle and Michael begins to say to Tom Hagen, you are no longer my Consigliere and then continues to say to Carlo that you will be my right hand man when we go to Las Vegas.

Godfather Vito Coreleone needed Santino and Tom Hagen because Santino was brutal and was willing to kill anyone without any questions; however Tom Hagen was a calm and gentle man.

Now, Michael, the next Godfather, does not need Ton Hagen to be his Consigliere because Michael is very calm, but he also has the brutal side of his brother, Santino, making him the perfect Godfather.
