When Ainsley knew that the exorcists were originally trying to kill the Godfather, the first thing she thought was–
Who the heck contacted the exorcists and made them think of killing the Godfather?
She's not an idiot. She knew that there was no way the exorcists would suddenly have this thought.
After all, according to Zev, they're mostly under the government's wings. If they made a move, it must be the government issuing them to do so.
But is it really the government that first had this thought?
Ainsley didn't believe so. The government wouldn't gain a lot of benefits by killing the Godfather...but the other mafia families, especially the 7 sacred families, would.
The Godfather was the Sloan Family's trump card.
If he died, the Sloan Family that was the thorn on the seven sacred families' side would weaken, and they could naturally eliminate all kinds of future threats.
