If you look at the behavior, the demeanor of Fredo in just about every scene throughout BOTH films, what you see is a sniveling, spineless, shallow misfit of a human being. A nice guy, sure. But sniveling/spineless/shallow nonetheless.
The only times Fredo generates even a hint of maturity is when he's with his nephew, Anthony. Figures...the kid is 8 years old.
Now, what would make anyone think that a person like that would, upon realizing the end was near...suddenly attain a serene acceptance of his fate and bravely say a Hail Mary while he awaited the final blow.
Not Fredo. Not possible.
He didn't know.
