Did you know that there were dinosaurs in the Garden of Eden? I didn't. That show is so informative.

 

Speaking of music, how about Tony turning on the radio while speaking to Phil, and the song was "Funeral for a Friend."? Good stuff.

i loved the rapper getting shot in arse instead of the "fleshy part of the thigh", and Pauly whacking that guy and asking for $4G's a month, seemingly for his "mother", Tony is gonna destroy Pauly for that one. Not the best show, but a good one, leading to a crescendo of shows in coming weeks I am sure!

Yeah, Tony promised that kid there would be no "punishment" and Pauly kicks his ass. Pauley put T into cardiac arrest, cannot concentrate on anything but what he wants, and then he mugs that kid. Did he know T said hands off?

 

They cannot pop Pauly soon enough!

 

:doh:

Not really looking to rehash the show...I just wanted to hype the fact that they played Pink Floyd's "One Of These Days" over the closing credits.  VERY COOL! :doh:

Definitely - I liked how they cut the song so that the vocals would play during the credits. FWIW: non-Floydians may not know but the lyrics are "One of these days I'm going to chop you into little pieces." Apropos for the show. Those were the only lyrics that drummer Nick Mason ever sang in a Floyd song.

Paulie is underboss, Tony can't wack him over some kid.

 

I think Tony is becoming too soft.

His whole "every day is a gift" approach will last all of about five minutes....

Pauly is definitely racking up the issues so far this season, lol. You GOTTA think that sooner or later Tony is going to find out that Pauly forced him to break his word to the kid's mother, and T will go ape sh-- on his arse.

yes but to what point? he's still just a citizen, tony can't shoot him over that. Johnny Sac beat the sh-- out of a guy once because he thought that the guy laughed at a joke about his wife, and all they did was send the guy some flowers or something.

 

I like the fact that Carmella stepped up.

Yeah, you can just feel that this episode went a LONG way toward setting the stage for some serious tension down the road. I think the interactions between the Jersey and NY families is pretty interesting. NY is bigger and stronger, yet Tony's nuts are bigger than just about anyone else's. Should be pretty damn fun to see how it all plays out.

Unless Pauly jumps to New York as remember he did have a talk with Johnny last year about feeling underappreciated etc.

he wouldn't have as much power. he's currently second in command, if he goes to New York he'd start out most likely as a soldier again.

How did you figuere he's second? Behind Tony is Silvio and as you recall there was talk of Vito may be next in line. Not to mention T has made mention if he were to name a successor he might name Christopher. Paulie in terms of experience might but up there but is lower on the list in terms of pecking order. Infact as referred to he almost jumped states last year. I think with Sacks in jail maybe he can work out a deal that prevent him fall to soldier status.

Christopher was a soldier for Paulie's crew. Now Chrissy is a Capo. The only way he can become a capo is his capo either died, in prison or disappeared. Since Chrissy is now a Capo and Paulie is still alive, Paulie was bumped up. Since Sylvio is the consigliere, the only possible position for a Capo is either Underboss or the Don.

 

About New York, maybe but highly unlikely. Noone really likes Paulie and he's more of an enforcer than a businessman. Another thing is Phil doesn't like Paulie either.

I think the liklihood of Pauly getting whacked is more likely then him going to New York by a wide margin but still see the latter being a distinct possibility in part that he's so well liked by the audience (or maybe I just like him for the comic amusement). Especially since this final season seems to be focusing on the feud between NJ and NY is the only reason I bring it up.

I think the likelihood of Paulie getting whacked is very little. The reason being that Paulie is like I said before, high up in the family. A lot of people see Paulie going over Tony's head as a way to piss off Tony, but what he did is not enough to warrant an execution. I dont' know if you remember season 4 when Sylvio ordered Patsy Parisi to steal the tiles from the esplanade even though Tony strictly forbid it. He did it because he wanted to see what his place was in the family, meaning that even as a consigliere, he gets to make his own choices.

 

Even if Barone would tell Tony about what Paulie did, the most that could happen is Tony makes Paulie cancel the tribute or pay for the kids knee operation.

 

Anyways it is a show and anything could happen but i don't think Chase would go far from mafia tradition.
