The Godfather, accompanied by his attorney, walked into a room to meet with his accountant.
The Godfather asked the accountant, "Where's the three million bucks you embezzled from me?"
The accountant didn't answer.
The Godfather asked again, "Where's the three million bucks you embezzled from me?"
The attorney interrupted, "Sir, the man is a deaf-mute and cannot understand you, but I can interpret for you."
The Godfather said, "Well, ask him where the @#!* money is."
The attorney, using sign language, asked the accountant where the three million dollars was.
The accountant signed back, "I don't know what you're talking about."
The attorney interpreted to the Godfather, "He doesn't know what you're talking about."
The Godfather pulled out a pistol, put it to the temple of the accountant, cocked the trigger and said, "Ask him again where the @#!* money is!"
The attorney signed to the accountant, "He wants to know where it is!"
The accountant signed back, "Okay! Okay! The money's hidden in a suitcase behind the shed in my backyard!"
The Godfather asked, "Well, what did he say?"
The attorney interpreted to the Godfather, "He said that you don't have the guts to pull the trigger."
The Godfather asked the accountant, "Where's the three million bucks you embezzled from me?"
