Superstitious has stronger implications than suspicious. Even if something happens that fully looks like the other mafia guys are innocent, like the lightning, he will still blame them (and not just be suspicious.) To me, this is fully in line with something Don Corleone would say.
Hell, that much water masses 24 tonnes, and I’m assuming this wasn’t special low-density air-entrained concrete either.
A quick googling shows that expanded polystyrene (suitably painted and textured to match the appearance of concrete) at ~42g/L (range 10 - 50g/L) would mass just over 1 tonne.

In Bones Booth routinely has to ask the scientists for conversion when they use metric terms. Thing is, Booth was in the Army ( it’s a major part of his character) and he should be familiar with the system, possibly moreso than the scientists.
Yes, but does this really count as an error? I presume the line is spoken by a American character at Pearl Harbor. So perhaps the subtext was “…for us!”.
In Woody Allen’s Love and Death, early in the film there was a throwaway joke about “Old Gregor” being younger than “Young Gregor.” And then there was a scene in which a family servant called “Old Nahamkin” was struck by lightning.
At the end of the film, when Woody Allen’s character is recounting some of the mysteries of life, he says that no one knew how “Old Nahamkin” could be younger than “Young Nahamkin.”
In the same vein, in True Romance when Vincenzo Coccotti is giving his speech about Sicilian liars and how he is a worl-class expert at spotting lies, he says “You don’t wanna show me nothin’, but you’re tellin me everything.”
I wonder if it wasn’t a mistake and it should have been reversed to
“You don’t wanna tell me nothin’, but you’re showin’ me everything.”
which would make more sense.
