An interesting archetype that can be found in the story is the mentor. An interesting mentor found in Godfather is Clemenza. One scene it showed Clemenza cooking for approximately 6 people in his house. Michael was there, and Clemenza told him to come here and learn. He showed him his recipe for cooking "sausage and meatballs" just in case for "cooking for 20 people".
Another side of being Michael's mentor is when preparing for Sollozzo and McClusky's assassination. Clemenza planned out where to plant the gun, prepared the special designed gun that leaves no trace, and told him the instruction of what to do before and after the assassination. The assassination was a success. Clemenza also mentioned" We were all proud of you. Being a Hero and all."
This quote showed Mario Puzo had used archetypes to show his process of Micahel's life as a hero
