At the beginning of "The Godfather Part II" (set in 1958–60), Kay, who is pregnant with the couple's third child, implores Michael to fulfill his promise to legitimize the family business. Michael continues making a genuine effort to eliminate the family's criminal ties. However, his escalating war with rival Hyman Roth (Lee Strasberg), as well as his growing obsession with revenge, keeps him trapped in the criminal underworld. On the night after Anthony's First Communion, assassins machine gun Michael and Kay's bedroom; the couple barely escapes unharmed. Not long afterward, Kay suffers an apparent miscarriage.
