Hi Just Lou! I almost don't even dare to speculate.  However...by the previews, I think the Adrianna & the feds scenario will move ahead a little. Since she's gonna be in a new show, I'm guessing she won't be around much longer. The Tony B & Tony thing, I don't know something's gonna come to a head. I'm wondering if there's more to the story Christopher gave Tony about Tony B at the end of last week's episode. The real estate deal for Carm??? Hmm. Maybe he'll buy her even a nice house to keep her happy. Well the sure thing is, we don't really ever know. TIS

Tonight's description in the TV guide is similar saying: "How long can Adriana keep her dealings with the FBI secret? This week, the Feds apply pressure and make her situation even more precarious." I know, I know, you are all just waiting for some action/whackings (even tho I agree I am not as disappointed as some of you). Call me a wide-eyed optimist  but I think you'll get it tonight. Two more episodes....Something just have to give, and maybe it just might be Adrianna's final episode or Tony B's. Who knows. I still am looking forward to seeing it. Plus, I do not mind the Tony/Carm storyline either. I think some of the family problems add a realism at times, that even us normal folk can realte to. One more thing, I could have sworn someone posted that the Sopranos wouldn't be on this week????? Anyway, it is on. TIS

Excellent episode.  I thought it suspicious that Tony called Adrianna to say Christopher had tried suicide, but at the same time, was surprised when Silvio pulled off the road. I liked Adrianna. At least the FBI are up shit creek now. :p And what was with Christopher staring at that family at the gas station? The guy looked a little like Furio no? Question tho, the body the kids found by the ocean, the drug dealer...I don't remember that killing. Did they show it in another season? Not surprised Tony & Carm got back together, but expect Irinna to stay in the picture as a thorn in Tony's side. I really have doubts that Tony will kill Tony B, and wouldn't be surprised if he even tried to protect him for being killed. He seems really conflicted as to whether or not to "do him in." All and all one of the best episodes in my opinion. TIS

Best eppisode of the season no question. Best eppisode ever? Its definetly stands a fighting chance if you ask me.
Lets start with the minor happening, which would have been huge news any other eppisode of the season. Tony is back in with Carmella. Will it last? Anyones guess. I say yes.
Also, were any of you getting a bad vibe in the begginning with Valentina? Is it just me, or does anybody else think something HUGE is gonna happen with her. Like her taking a shot at Tony or even Carmella. I would not be suprised.
And then of course, Johnny Sac's and Little Carmine's supposed reconciliation that they barely touched on. This my friends is huge. Instead of Tonys family being the swing, its now Little Carmine's. Only time will tell what happens.
And of course the most shocking moment of the season... Adriana buys the farm. While it seemed obvious to me all season that this would happen, I was shocked when it finally did happen. I didnt think she would die, but logic was screaming that Christopher would sell her out, and thats exactly what he did. R.I.P Adriana. We will miss your sweet ass. Lol.
But the most important event was of course the very last couple of minutes. Instead of selling out his cousin, Tony grows some testicles and stands up to Johnny Sac. And for the first real time in 5 seasons, were about to experience something new. WAR. I predict a shit load of bodies. Tony B, Christopher, Phil Leotardo, maybe even Johnny Sac, Silvio, Paulie... Who knows. It could be anybody. All I know is, that were in for a real treat.

DV, during that part, I actually thought the opposite..that maybe Christopher was envious, wanting a "family" life with kids, etc., but wasn't sure. Evidently, it's not his cup of tea. TIS

Awesome episode. I was on the edge of my seat for the better part of it. I found it suspicious when Chris left Adrianna (supposedly to buy cigarettes), but I "bought" Tony's story about Chris trying to commit suicide. I then got suspicious about why Silvio didn't ask Adrianna about her marked face, and as soon as he turned down the dirt road I knew she was gone. But still, the whole episode had me guessing. I'm thinking Phil Leotardo is gonna push Tony too far, and Tony's gonna push back....HARD! TIS - That scene at the gas station (when Chris saw the couple with the kids and the ratty car) got Chris to thinking what his future (without the mob life) would be like. He didn't like what he saw, and despite his earlier protestations, he wants that lifestyle. Gotta wait two weeks now.

"Thinking like a women there TIS." FS, it's hard to break a habit. Besides, it's the only way I know how to think. If next season is indeed the last, I look for one of the Sopranos to get killed. If not Tony, someone in his immediate family. If it's gonna end, I'm guessing it'll end on a sour note as opposed to happily ever after (Like GF). Maybe one of the kids. Johnny Sac made a threatening remark about him or his family paying..or something like that. TIS

TIS I actually have to agree with Don Vercetti there. The first thing that came to mind when Chris was looking at that guy was him thinking "geee... I could end up in a POS car, a mullet, a 300lb wife and two ungrateful kids in witness protection or I can abide by my promise and side with Tony... " As soon as she picked up the phone and I saw Tony on the other end, I knew she was cooked. Nick

I thought the same thing Paul! It wasn't Furio, but looked a little like him. Another minor observation.. Did anyone notice when Tony called Adrianna to tell her that Christopher attempted suicide, he used a pay phone and not his cell?? :p He always seems to have the cell on hand, and it seemed odd he'd use the payphone. Unless it was for purposes of the call being traced or something. How funny that now it seems payphones are so outdated. TIS

Hi Paul, looks like it's just me and you this morning.  Yes, I did pick up on that too and thought of GF. I always try to see if I can notice what movie Tony is watching on tv, just to see if there is a connection with the storyline somehow. Couldn't determine this week what it was. TIS
