What Goes Around is a memory in Assassin's Creed II.

Description
Angered that Ezio still had not seen the purpose of his father, Giovanni Auditore, Mario rushes off from the training ring. Confused about his uncle's anger, Ezio comes to his office only to be informed by a mercenary that Mario had left for San Gimignano. Ezio talks to his sister before leaving.

Dialogue
Mario Auditore decides to end the conflict between him and Vieri de' Pazzi.

Entering the City
Ezio arrives at San Gimignano and finds his uncle along with his troops outside the city. First we must find a way inside the city. Though it seems Vieri expects us... He has sealed the gates and sent his men to guard them. Fortunately for us, the city is larger than his host. The southern gate suffers for it. So this is where we will strike. Pronti?'' (Ready?) Ezio and Mario reach the gates only to find it closed. Mario suggest that Ezio climb over the wall and open the gates, while Mario and his men distract the guards. Take these throwing knives. Use them to dispatch the archers.'' Mario gives Ezio a knife belt. He climbs over the wall while to deal with the archers while Mario and his men fight the guards outside the gate.
 * Mario: Ezio? What are you doing here?
 * Ezio: Taking responsibility. Vieri troubles you because of me.
 * Mario: Vieri troubles us because he is a Templar and we are Assassins.
 * Ezio: Either way. I wish to help.
 * Mario: Va bene. (Alright.)'' Then listen close:
 * Mario: ''Alright Ezio. Here's how it is going to work: My men and I will distract the guards. Once we've engaged them, get yourself over the wall and find a way to open the gate.
 * Ezio: I'm ready when you are.
 * Mario: Then let us begin.
 * Ezio succeeds in opening the gates.


 * Mario: Well done, Ezio! We're in!
 * Mario commands his troops inside the city.


 * Mario: This way, men!
 * On reaching inside the city, they encounter more guards.

Come join me once they are dealt with.''
 * Mario: I want you to distract those guards, and keep them from raising the alarm. Hopefully it will buy me enough time to find and silence Vieri.
 * Ezio: Va bene. (Alright.)
 * Mario: Wait, nipote (nephew).'' Take a few of my men with you... Just to be safe.
 * As Ezio approaches the group of guards, he hears them talking about Vieri.

Ezio along with the mercenary attacks and kills the guards. They move further into the city, and find one of Mario's man lying wounded near a well. Ezio reaches the Santa Maria Assunta to find Mario and Vieri's men in combat. On seeing Ezio, Mario calls to him. Vieri's men amused us, and now we've got our hands full. My brother and I will deal with these guards - I want you to go ahead and root out that snake! Find Vieri! See that justice is severed!'' Ezio leaves to find Vieri while his uncle deals with the guards. On reaching the northern gates, Ezio watches from the rooftops as Vieri enters the city along with his father and two other men. Ezio recognizes one of them, a man wearing a hood, as the same person who was at Uberto Alberti's residence and later at the execution of his father and brothers. Now, is there anything else?''
 * Guard I: What's Vieri up to now?
 * Guard II: No one knows. But something has him on edge. How else to explain all the patrols?
 * Guard III: We're meant to be soldiers. Instead he's turned us into nursemaids. And why?
 * Guard II: Shooting his mouth again, no doubt. Angering the wrong sort of people... And so now we pay the price.WGA_Mario_v.png guards.]]
 * Guard I: Careful. Or do you want us dragged before him like Bernardo was?
 * Guard II: Poor bastard... I heard Vieri took his eyes.
 * Guard I: I'd like to keep mine. So lets end this conversation.
 * Wounded Mercenary: Ezio! Your uncle's under attack and needs help! Go to him!
 * Mario: Ah, nipote (nephew)! ''There you are! It seems my plan has hit something of a snag...
 * Spaniard: It's settled: Vieri, you will remain here to coordinate the mercenari (mercenaries). Francesco will organize our forces in the city and send word when it's time to strike. Jacopo, your job is to calm the citizens once the deed is done.
 * Vieri: What about that ubriacone (drunkard) Mario? He continues to harass my forces and I fear he'll discover what we intend.
 * Francesco: He's always been trouble. Just like that bastardo (bastard) brother of his.
 * Vieri: Then let me reunite them, father!
 * Spaniard: There will be plenty of time to clean up rifiuti (trash) ''when we've finished.
 * The Pazzi remain silent and Ezio is shocked at hearing Vieri's intentions.

May the Father of Understanding guide you! The group repeat this and everyone leaves.
 * Spaniard: Muy bien. (Very well.)
 * A guard runs up to Vieri;

Vieri retreats to the cities battlements, while Mario and his troops attack the guards. Ezio moves in to assassinate Vieri.
 * Guard: Comandante! Comandante! (Commander! Commander!)
 * Vieri: (annoyed) What?!
 * Guard: Mario Auditore has invaded the city! He comes for you!
 * Vieri: Then let's not keep him waiting.
 * Vieri recognizes Ezio.

Ezio kills the guards surrounding Vieri and finally kills him.
 * Vieri: Ah! There you are.
 * Ezio: What are you and your allies planning? Is this what my father discovered? Is this why he was killed?
 * Vieri: I'm sorry, were you hoping for a confession?
 * Angered that he couldn't get any answers from Vieri;WGA_14_v.png into Vieri.]]


 * Ezio: Pezzo di merda! Vorrei solo che avessi sofferto di più! Hai avuto la fine che meritavo! Spero che bru- (Piece of shit! I only wish you'd suffered more! You met the fate you deserved! I hope yo-)
 * Mario: (angrily) Enough, Ezio! Show some respect.
 * Ezio: Respect? After all that's happened? Do you think he would have shown either of us such kindness?
 * Mario: You are not Vieri. Do not become him.
 * Mario walks up to Vieri's body.


 * Mario: Che la morte ti dia la pace che cercavi. (May death provide the peace you sought.) Requiescat in Pace. (Rest in peace.)
 * He takes a letter from Vieri's body and gives it to Ezio.


 * Mario: Take this. Read it when you have time. Our work here is finished. Let us return to the villa...
