With loyal underboss Daisy and heiress Selena Hayes, he reclaims his throne, exposes the deception, and crowns Selena his only Mrs. Corleone.

Story Guide

Episode 1

Cross Corleone has spent five years not knowing his own name. To the kitchen he's just the machine who does the work of three men for cheap, so his boss doubles his load without a second thought. Then Daisy walks in and calls him Godfather. He laughs it off — he chops vegetables for a living, he has a wife and a family to feed, and he isn't sick. Daisy refuses to leave, promising to bring him home to the family no matter what. Elsewhere, Selena Hayes gets the news she's waited five years for: the man who saved her has been found. She made a vow to marry him.

Episode 2

Anna sends Cross on a two-hour round trip for French cream puffs from Fifth Avenue — then barely hides her impatience once he's gone. She isn't alone. Jack is with her, and the two of them treat her husband as a punchline, laughing about how long his errand will take. What they don't count on is Cross coming home two hours early. He walks straight into the room and catches them together. The question of what he's actually seeing hangs in the air as the scene cuts off.

Episode 3

There's no cover story. Anna tells Cross flat out that she's fallen for Jack and wants a divorce. When Cross points out he bought the house and paid every expense for five years, she and Jack turn it into a threat — Jack runs the gang controlling the whole neighborhood, and Cross is warned to behave or end up a corpse at an intersection. Jack piles on, mocking every on-sale gift Cross ever gave and bragging about his Rolls Royce outside. Then a memory surfaces: Cross as the Godfather, delivering judgment on someone who broke his one rule — no drugs, no innocent blood.

Episode 4

Jack's humiliation lands harder than he realizes. Something in Cross snaps — after five years of amnesia, he refuses to let a thug mock him in his own house. He agrees to the divorce, but the mask is gone: it's time this city knows the Corleone family is back. Daisy confirms it, overjoyed that his memory has returned, and delivers a bombshell — after Cross vanished, a decoy was installed to make the city believe he was still in command. Once the puppet is dealt with, the family can openly welcome him home and restore order. Then Selena Hayes walks in.

Episode 5

At the Sky Garden, Jack spots Cross and assumes he followed Anna there. He can't resist twisting the knife, offering a "generous" deal: get on your knees and lick my shoes, and I'll cover your tab. Cross stays eerily calm, warning Jack that his father's goodwill is the only reason he's still standing. Jack escalates anyway, leaning on the Vanderland gang name and demanding Cross kneel or regret it. He has no idea he's threatening the Godfather himself — and that the restaurant's real owner is about to walk through the door.

Episode 6

Michael, the manager, arrives at the table — and addresses Cross with immediate deference, apologizing for the "flies" buzzing around it. Cross's request is simple: apologize to his fiancée, then leave. Jack and Anna howl that Selena must be a hired actress, with Jack even offering her money to switch sides. It doesn't land the way he expects. When a gun comes out, security is summoned, and Michael insists on moving the confrontation to the main lounge. Jack still thinks he's the one in control.

Episode 7

In the main lounge, the manager's loyalty is put to the test — and fails it. Citing Jack's million-dollar annual spending as a VIP, he blames Cross and Selena for the disturbance. Selena's response is ice: the Hayes Group owns this restaurant and pays his salary, not so he can grovel to outsiders. Effective immediately, he's fired. His bluster collapses fast, because everyone in the city knows the biggest names are throwing a banquet in Selena's honor — at her father's estate. The Godfather's name comes up. They still don't connect it to the kitchen helper standing in front of them.

Episode 8

Michael arrives and finds the fired manager scrambling to save himself, blaming Cross and Selena for assaulting a VIP guest. Jack and Anna keep sneering that Selena is just an actress who did her homework — anyone can learn a few names to sneak into a place like this. Michael isn't interested in the performance. He gives the manager one minute to fix the situation, or he'll be fired and homeless. The countdown is on, and Jack still believes his money and his father's gang will carry him through.

Episode 9

The manager's minute runs out, and Michael's verdict lands like a hammer. Instead of throwing Cross out, he offers his deepest apologies to Cross and Selena, calling the incident a total violation of the Sky Garden's standards — and hands over the restaurant's premium black card, no payment needed, ever. Jack sputters that Cross is just a useless kitchen helper. The manager is fired on the spot and blacklisted by every company in the city. The old power map is quietly being redrawn around a man everyone still underestimates.

Episode 10

Jack refuses to read the room. He reminds Michael that he spends millions here and that the Vanderland gang is a key customer, warning that cancelling his VIP would mean crossing the Hayes Group. Anna coaxes him, certain Michael is just a dog playing up to Selena's people and would never dare. Michael lets Jack finish his speech about real high society versus a lowly kitchen helper. Then he answers flatly: your VIP is cancelled. The threat that was supposed to protect Jack has just been called — and it wasn't enough.

Cross's memory is back, the decoy is still out there, and the city is about to find out who really runs it. Start this one tonight and watch the throne get reclaimed.
