Sopranos 5/6 (spoilers): Time to SOGOTP, Chase.

Seems like Bobby earned Tony's respect after kicking his ass earlier in the season.

Is Meadow going to do anything remotely interesting before the series ends?

The episode's star was obviously Chris. It's been said in this thread, but a powerful performance from Imperioli. I'm just waiting for the big blowoff between Chris and Paulie, which hopefully happens.

 

The show is built on hypocrisy.

 

The RUssian and the ducks got eaten by the bear that was in Tony's yard.

 

Tony didn't reject Chris's substance abuse roots. It was an epiphany for him to hear about Dickie's habits. He realized at that moment why A.J. was acting that way.

 

so does Chris' sloppy execution of the writer lead to his arrest and subsequent ratting out of the guys he supposedly has come to hate?

Will AJ be seduced by the power his name wields? Was he so amped up after coming home because of the anti-depressants or because of taking part in the muscle move on the welsher?

 

bostonbred...AMEN TO A GREAT BLOWUP BETWEEN PAULIE AND CHRIS. IT'S A LONG TIME COMING!

 

I laughed my ass off when Chris brought up Sal Vitro. You're right; the guy can't ever catch a break. Maybe he'll at least get paid for this job.

The shots of Paulie doing the lawn job at Chris' house were hysterical. The guy was on a mission, and didn't give a shit if he was tearing up his own Caddy in the process. Knocking down that last tree right in front of the window as Chris' wife was looking out was a nice touch.

And for Write Brained, that stripper was NASTY. Usually the dancers at the Bing are hot as hell, but she was old, used up and too skinny. They must have been going for that look on her for some reason.

 

Chris almost has to be questioned here, doesn't he? There's a pretty public association between the two because of "Cleaver."

 

Too obvious. As is constantly pointed out, the obvious stuff rarely happens on this show.

 

Yeah, but that's a pretty high-profile murder to be just swept away.

 

We also learned that Tony is a Rush fan, as he pulled into his driveway blasting Tom Sawyer. Say what you will about his character and his morals, the man's got good musical taste.
