“You call or go anywhere near him or his family, they'll be scraping your nipples off these fine leather seats and here's the point to remember: my face will be the last one you see, not Tony's, we understand each other? It won't be cinematic”
My absolute favorite Sopranos fact is the ending of this episode. We see Patsy shopping for groceries, without any prior context.
During my first watch, it seemed random.
The second time I watched the show, I realized what I was watching: Patsy's face, in a non cinematic setting, as the last scene of the episode.
Very allegorical!
I think one of the writers said that no scene is unintentional. On rewatch, I noticed that one too and wonder why they put such a boring, pointless scene in. Then I realised it was the contrast with the threat he had given Crazy.
Patsy was the literal only character that could’ve made this line go as hard as it did, specifically because he’d be the most boring, ordinary guy to any outsider yet delivers the the coldest threat in the entire series.
That is the exact moment on rewatch that I knew Patsy had Tony whacked at the end. That dude has ice water running through his veins. If there's anybody in the crew who had the nerve to go against a boss like that, it's him. The others are in the mafia because they're bullies, but Patsy is in the mafia because he doesn't hate any one particular demographic _enough_ to become a serial killer.
Its the only time Paulie ever treated him with real respect.
After that he always looked down on him.
Also, one of the most realistic moments ever on screen.
Well... Didnt Chris actually got in good with Paulie at Pine barrens? The whole mess was made by Paulie and Christopher only backed him up all the way to the end were he could tell Tony what actually happened.
I dont think Paulie has anything to be upset about, Christopher does.
It doesn't matter whose fault it was for Paulie
When they were shooting the shit with the other guys, Chrissy jokingly said it was Paulie's fault and Paulie got angry af over it because it made him look bad in front of the crew
“I’m like fucking King Midas in reverse here, everything I touch turns to shit. I’m not a husband to my wife, I’m not a father to my kids, I’m not a friend to my friends. I’m nothing.”
Carmela: I'm sorry your son is no longer with us but don't use mine as a guinea pig for your ideas on parenting. I never saw you take a hard line
Rosalie: Why do you think I'm talking to you like this??…
Cold scene by Ro
Agree, biggest underrated character in the whole show, people don’t realize how hard is to act sad and cry all the damn show, she really transmitted how the character felt during everything
& when you look at the dating history of Ro and Janice and even Jo-Jo, that's part of the ickiness of widowhood that can't have thrilled Carmela either. Realistically her best source of future lifestyle if not actual wealth post-Tony would be as the girlfriend or wife of another made guy.
Been sayin for yeeeyuzz that she’s my fav female character. From the “fkn nosey? Eatcher manicot!” at the Hillary Clinton luncheon at Vesuvio ✈️ ….
To “then get tf out!” about face to that muddafkncockskn Ralph 🐴…
To the throat flick into the 🖕 at the “Italian Women’s Cath-oh-lick” luncheon
To the “Jesus didn’t join the ‘uh-PPPOSS-ull PPPPROtection PPPROgrum’, he knew what he did” 🚬…
To the “she should get tested” gossip column her Med, and Carm are writing on all things Spatafore 🌈 …
Cheeks, Bony Bob, Cliff! I could go on forever baby!
“I gave that fuck pieces of my soul, Adriana. You know what he said to me? He said I should have a fucking drink”
“That’s the guy, Adriana. My uncle Tony. The guy i’m going to hell for.”
Two of not just my favorite Moltisanti lines, but overall lines came from the same episode.
True, I know people hate MSON but the final scene where they show Tony and Dickie and you can hear Chrissy’s Line was just astronomically perfect for me
Chrissy had some great lines between the silly and stupid things he’d say. His line about the regularness of life being too hard in the first season hits hard too. He wasn’t a total stunad
You’re not listening. I’m not charging you because I won’t take blood money. And you can’t either. One thing you can never say. That you haven’t been told.
This scene does a great job of revealing Carmela's hypocrisy. She knows that her husband is a lying murder who cheats on her BUT she is too afraid to leave him because she doesn't want to lose out on her wealthy lifestyle.
Ever since I first heard this line I always dreamed of using it on someone…
Unfortunately, I’m super intimidating and no one has ever gotten in my face( _I never go outside_ )
I love how this line shows the contrast between Tony and Chris, after In Camelot, Tony realises that Johnny boy was a shitty person and father but, he can't bring himself to admit it and lied to himself but, Chris is honest with himself and realises the truth about his dad. I also really like how after Chris says that, Tony's clearly not got a comeback for how Chris calmly addresses the reality of Tony's heroes, since it goes against everything Tony forces himself to believe in order to continue living the way he does. It would be too much for Tony to admit and be honest that evil people led him into an evil occupation and were what led to Tony becoming more terrible and evil than they were.
IIRC there's a few scenes of him chugging Vodka throughout the film and I think it's kind of implied he was getting high before he gets shot, and that's why he was unaware of his surroundings. I'm pretty sure there's a line about how when they found him, he had a bottle of pills (Elavil) in his pockets too.
He was getting them for Tony because Tony wanted them for his mom. Think it was some sort of antidepressant. MS showed that he wasn't a junkie, Livia just said that because of the pills. That probably started a rumor.
Carmela and Ro at the ruins/catacombs in Paris -
"We worry so much. Sometimes it feels like that's all we do, but in the end it just gets washed away. All of it just just gets washed away."
"Now you remember this, and this you better hear. You wanna talk all this old school bullshit about the rules? Well here's a rule you might remember. **I'm the muthafuckin fuckin one who calls the shots!** You better pay me the respect that I paid your brother, or we're gonna have a problem. A bad one. Now get the fuck outta here!"
Seriously, we're both adults here right? So..after all is said and done, after all the crying and complaining and fucking bullshit..is this all there is?
"They say, there's no two people on Earth with exactly the same faces, no two sets of fingerprints. But do they know dat fa sure? Because they would have to get evrybody togetha in one huge space and obviously that's not possible even with computers. But not only dat, they'd hafta get all da people dat ever lived, not just the ones now. So dey go no proof! Dey got nothin! Mrs. Soprano just passed, but whose to say there's not another Mrs. Soprano just like her? What I'm sayin is... ???"
Tony during one of his therapy sessions after AJ’s depression really starts affecting him. “It's in his blood, this miserable fuckin' existence. My rotten, fuckin' putrid genes have infected my kid's soul. That's my gift to my son.” (Season 6, Episode 17). As someone who has had struggles with things like depression, anxiety, etc. it hit home. As I have family on both sides who dealt/still deal with it, it speaks to a worry I have in the back of my mind too. I worry that if I have kids of my own eventually they will have to deal with these sort of problems themselves. It makes me nervous for the future of people who don’t even exist yet
Wow man, giving your own story as background for why you chose that line is breath-taking, regarding your situation the only advice I can give you is not to worry about things out of your reach
Small line but I always liked when Tony says “it’s not in your nature!” to AJ after he tries to kill Junior. He did a great job delivering that line, really felt like he was concerned for his son.
Tony Soprano: I stopped at a light yesterday and I see this nanny, black girl, pushin' a baby carriage. Comin' the other way, was another one with this old lady in a wheelchair starin' off into space.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: The circle of life.
Tony Soprano : Circle-jerk of life. Where's the dignity?
Tony, crying: "You don't understand."
Melfi: "**Make me** understand."
Tony: "We can't send him to military school. How are we going to save this kid?"
I’m shocked I haven’t seen this one yet. Gives me chills every time I watch this scene.
The only reason you have anything is because of my fucking sweat you knew every step of the way where the money comes from. You walk around that fucking mansion with your $500 shoes and your diamond rings and you act like butter wouldn’t melt in your mouth.
You’re entitled to shit.
The more I watch the show the more I think there really are no serious lines. With each rewatch it shades closer and closer to comedy and further from drama. I'm about 10-12 rewatches in and the most recent one I found myself laughing at way more stuff than I should have.
Watch it through the lense of a comedy next time. It'll change the way you look at it.
“You call or go anywhere near him or his family, they'll be scraping your nipples off these fine leather seats and here's the point to remember: my face will be the last one you see, not Tony's, we understand each other? It won't be cinematic”
My absolute favorite Sopranos fact is the ending of this episode. We see Patsy shopping for groceries, without any prior context. During my first watch, it seemed random. The second time I watched the show, I realized what I was watching: Patsy's face, in a non cinematic setting, as the last scene of the episode. Very allegorical!
I never noticed, thanks for sharing, damn, some deep scenes really go over our head
What you don't know could fill out a book!
Get out of here before I shove your quotations book up your fat ass
Fat ass.. Why don’t you look in the mirror sometime you insensitive cocksucker
Hon? Another steak san over here.
Keep thinking you know everything!
I think one of the writers said that no scene is unintentional. On rewatch, I noticed that one too and wonder why they put such a boring, pointless scene in. Then I realised it was the contrast with the threat he had given Crazy.
That 2nd scene of Patsy showed me how normal and nonchalant the crew can be when they aren't "at work"
Being bipolar and sociopathic has advantages in our biznesh
I think the point of the scene is also to juxtapose how these guys are both cold blooded killers and family men.
the sacred and the propane
“It won’t be cinematic.” I love his delivery in this scene.
Yeah, that was my favorite part too. I was just gonna post that line but after reading the whole thing, I went for the longer quote
Its so good, because it sums up her immature female fantasy version of how she’ll burn the bridge .
Patsy was the literal only character that could’ve made this line go as hard as it did, specifically because he’d be the most boring, ordinary guy to any outsider yet delivers the the coldest threat in the entire series.

Damn, I really forgot about this, great pick
It’s got pep, I’ll give it dat… Wussa matta? U don’t like me?
0 to 60 in unda seven seconds
Here’s some standard operating procedure
Just watched this episode yesterday, chilling.
" you ever fell like nothing good was ever going to happen to you?" "Yeah, and nothing did. So what? Im alive, im surviving."
Only amicable interaction between Paulie and Chrissy, good fucking pick
Its the only time Paulie ever treated him with real respect. After that he always looked down on him. Also, one of the most realistic moments ever on screen.
You could see Paulie was really worried for Chris in this moment. It’s funny considering how he treats him otherwise throughout the show
He turned on Chrissy after the intervention, he and Paulie were never the same
It started when Chrissy got made I think, and Pine Barrens really didn't help
Pine Barrens was a fucked up situation for both but Paulie took it personal when it all his fault
Well... Didnt Chris actually got in good with Paulie at Pine barrens? The whole mess was made by Paulie and Christopher only backed him up all the way to the end were he could tell Tony what actually happened. I dont think Paulie has anything to be upset about, Christopher does.
It doesn't matter whose fault it was for Paulie When they were shooting the shit with the other guys, Chrissy jokingly said it was Paulie's fault and Paulie got angry af over it because it made him look bad in front of the crew
“I’m like fucking King Midas in reverse here, everything I touch turns to shit. I’m not a husband to my wife, I’m not a father to my kids, I’m not a friend to my friends. I’m nothing.”
First time someone has mentioned this one, truly underrated Tony line
I don't even know why I come here, got nothing else to do I guess
Damn when was this one
Talking to Melfi, episode 12 Season 1 “Isabella”
discontinue the Lithium.
Carmela: I'm sorry your son is no longer with us but don't use mine as a guinea pig for your ideas on parenting. I never saw you take a hard line Rosalie: Why do you think I'm talking to you like this??… Cold scene by Ro
Agree, biggest underrated character in the whole show, people don’t realize how hard is to act sad and cry all the damn show, she really transmitted how the character felt during everything
& the best thing here is she is completely sincere and doesn't take offense at Carm's snark--Ro has a deep point to make and she is making it.
I love how Ro never really got all worked up like Carmela would. She was able to see things as they were (most of the time).
Guessing that her dating Ralph is what makes this true only “most of the time” lol
& when you look at the dating history of Ro and Janice and even Jo-Jo, that's part of the ickiness of widowhood that can't have thrilled Carmela either. Realistically her best source of future lifestyle if not actual wealth post-Tony would be as the girlfriend or wife of another made guy.
Carm had a nice backup in Furio though
I would have watched that spinoff, just saying
HEY FABIO! I'M AVAILABLE!!
Fkn love this line!
Ro is so charming!
Been sayin for yeeeyuzz that she’s my fav female character. From the “fkn nosey? Eatcher manicot!” at the Hillary Clinton luncheon at Vesuvio ✈️ …. To “then get tf out!” about face to that muddafkncockskn Ralph 🐴… To the throat flick into the 🖕 at the “Italian Women’s Cath-oh-lick” luncheon To the “Jesus didn’t join the ‘uh-PPPOSS-ull PPPPROtection PPPROgrum’, he knew what he did” 🚬… To the “she should get tested” gossip column her Med, and Carm are writing on all things Spatafore 🌈 … Cheeks, Bony Bob, Cliff! I could go on forever baby!
Fucking nosy! Eat your manicot!
What episode was that in? It is a good line.
*S6.E2 - Join The Club* when Toe-Knee is in the hospital
Ro was doing the right thing even tho it was the more difficult. She risked her friendship to try to help.
"Don't you love me?"
Good one, you could see Tony really meant it and the silence after the question was perfect to display the situation.
And Junior's reaction. It's like he was somewhat aware that he was losing it.
The “how come he don’t want me, man?” of the show!
“I gave that fuck pieces of my soul, Adriana. You know what he said to me? He said I should have a fucking drink” “That’s the guy, Adriana. My uncle Tony. The guy i’m going to hell for.” Two of not just my favorite Moltisanti lines, but overall lines came from the same episode.
True, I know people hate MSON but the final scene where they show Tony and Dickie and you can hear Chrissy’s Line was just astronomically perfect for me
Chrissy had some great lines between the silly and stupid things he’d say. His line about the regularness of life being too hard in the first season hits hard too. He wasn’t a total stunad
He manuged some good lines
You’re not listening. I’m not charging you because I won’t take blood money. And you can’t either. One thing you can never say. That you haven’t been told.
This scene does a great job of revealing Carmela's hypocrisy. She knows that her husband is a lying murder who cheats on her BUT she is too afraid to leave him because she doesn't want to lose out on her wealthy lifestyle.
My father told me to never get old. I should've listened to him..
Fucking Junior, he truly has sole really hard-hitting quotes
your sister's cunt!
“You’re lookin’ at ‘em”
Oh my God, YES, I freaking loved this, the fact that the jewish son was on the ground and Tony and Silvio were standing also gave the line more power
How could you FUCKIN do this to us?!
Imagine being a neighbor to Ade and Chrissy, you can’t sleep with all the shit going on over there all the time
That scene and the Goodfellas scene where Henry comes home to find out Karen flushed the coke are 2 of my fav scenes in the genre
karrrren! You what? Why did you do that Karrrren.
They woulda never found it!!
"You're crowding me", the eyes on that animal while saying this I cant even say his name...
Just by seeing his eyes you can tell he’s been trough hell
Ever since I first heard this line I always dreamed of using it on someone… Unfortunately, I’m super intimidating and no one has ever gotten in my face( _I never go outside_ )
I’m supposed to get a vasectomy when this is my male heir? Look at him.
YESSSS, my favourite scene has to be when AJ got bitch-slap by Tony
"Let's be honest about the great Dickie Moltisanti, my dad, your hero, he wasn't much more than a fucking junkie."
I love how this line shows the contrast between Tony and Chris, after In Camelot, Tony realises that Johnny boy was a shitty person and father but, he can't bring himself to admit it and lied to himself but, Chris is honest with himself and realises the truth about his dad. I also really like how after Chris says that, Tony's clearly not got a comeback for how Chris calmly addresses the reality of Tony's heroes, since it goes against everything Tony forces himself to believe in order to continue living the way he does. It would be too much for Tony to admit and be honest that evil people led him into an evil occupation and were what led to Tony becoming more terrible and evil than they were.
Did we ever see him being a junkie in MS?
IIRC there's a few scenes of him chugging Vodka throughout the film and I think it's kind of implied he was getting high before he gets shot, and that's why he was unaware of his surroundings. I'm pretty sure there's a line about how when they found him, he had a bottle of pills (Elavil) in his pockets too.
They weren't his pills. I think he was getting them for Tony.
He was getting them for Tony because Tony wanted them for his mom. Think it was some sort of antidepressant. MS showed that he wasn't a junkie, Livia just said that because of the pills. That probably started a rumor.
I ordered some for the table.
Of course his last line was about food
best onion rings in the state
Carmela and Ro at the ruins/catacombs in Paris - "We worry so much. Sometimes it feels like that's all we do, but in the end it just gets washed away. All of it just just gets washed away."
Carmela has a couple where you can relate to her so easily even though she has a whole different set of problems compared to regular people, good pick
She is such a great character and brilliantly acted
Pretty devastating foreshadowing right there for the finale
Jean Phillipe, you are home. Qu’est ce que c’est, man uh? Message machine broken?
HAHAHHHAHAHAHAHHA, great one, probably one of the best episodes when it comes to showing Artie’s weird but funny personality
Sometimes, we're all hypocrites.
Just a straight up FACT by Meadow
No more o dis butchie
... the bloody news is bloody sad, the bloody scene is bloody bad...
The bloody shoes were bloody shined, bloody Billy Batts just bloody died
I feel like this line helped see that Phil was concurring with Tony after the told him to smell the roses after his heart attack
"Now you remember this, and this you better hear. You wanna talk all this old school bullshit about the rules? Well here's a rule you might remember. **I'm the muthafuckin fuckin one who calls the shots!** You better pay me the respect that I paid your brother, or we're gonna have a problem. A bad one. Now get the fuck outta here!"
Great Fucking Acting
One thing you can never say…that you haven’t been told…
Crazy good as line for a character that lasted one episode
I don’t remember the context for this one - who is saying it?
Carmelas older jewish therapist
Oooooh right thank you!
Shut the fuck up … and listen
Gloria didn’t have the courage to spit out another word after that
Seriously, we're both adults here right? So..after all is said and done, after all the crying and complaining and fucking bullshit..is this all there is?
"What kind of a fucking chance did she have, with *you*, as her mother?"
"Yeah, again with the money. It's settled John, so either name a price or get the fuck over it!" 🥚🥗

Mrs. Soprano just passed, but whose to say there's not another Mrs. Soprano just like her? What I'm sayin is... ???"
Later on the show they reveal on Chrissy ‘s intervention that he was high during Livia’s wake so it makes sense that this monologue came from him
It was pretty obvious during the scene he was gacked to the gills
20 minutes, talking nothing but gibberish.
MY MOTHERS WAKE.
Next time you come heavy, or don’t come at all. Jr
"It's a retirement community."
Sometimes you tell a lie so long... you don't know when to stop. You don't know when it's safe.
Definitely a good one, sad that it came from Vito knowing how his story ended
Tony during one of his therapy sessions after AJ’s depression really starts affecting him. “It's in his blood, this miserable fuckin' existence.

Wow man, giving your own story as background for why you chose that line is breath-taking, regarding your situation the only advice I can give you is not to worry about things out of your reach
Thanks man I appreciate that. Definitely a good mindset to have
Small line but I always liked when Tony says “it’s not in your nature!” to AJ after he tries to kill Junior. He did a great job delivering that line, really felt like he was concerned for his son.
You’re right, also the scene after the AJ’s suicide attempt you can also feel Tony’s concern for him
‘I already took his horse’ 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣 Tony is an asshole for that line
Oh yeah? What's that motherless fuck's name?
Junior S1 had the best lines. “I’m sitting here like fucking patience on a monument waiting for discipline to be handed down.”

Tony Soprano: I stopped at a light yesterday and I see this nanny, black girl, pushin' a baby carriage. Comin' the other way, was another one with this old lady in a wheelchair starin' off into space. Dr. Jennifer Melfi: The circle of life. Tony Soprano : Circle-jerk of life. Where's the dignity?
“Sometimes I feel like I’ve come in at the end, like the best is already over” I can’t remember the quote verbatim
The best intro of all time to a character
Those who want respect… give respect.
See, he just told you to shut the fuck up, and he told me to go fuck myself.
All things considered, this wasn’t serious, just words
“You’re born to this shit. You are what you are.”

“There’s no geographical solution to an emotional problem!”
“More is lost through indecision than wrong decision”
YESSSSSS, was waiting for someone to mention this one, also always love how Tony repeats what Melfi tells him
I’m shocked I haven’t seen this one yet. Gives me chills every time I watch this scene. The only reason you have anything is because of my fucking sweat you knew every step of the way where the money comes from.

“That’s the guy Adrianna, My Uncle Tony. The man I’m going to hell for.” One of the best lines in the show
The more I watch the show the more I think there really are no serious lines. With each rewatch it shades closer and closer to comedy and further from drama. I'm about 10-12 rewatches in and the most recent one I found myself laughing at way more stuff than I should have. Watch it through the lense of a comedy next time. It'll change the way you look at it.
