Friends.
With the Bosses gone, Roman Amato and Emilio Martelli step up to lead their respective Families. They’ve both trained extensively for such a task, but reality is always worse. Forced to work together and trust each other as leaders and allies, rather than just friends, they quickly learn that 'Boss' is more than a title and position, it's a sacrifice.
