- Phil Leotardo: We're friends of your son, from Alcoholics Anonymous.
- Joanne Moltisanti: What's your name?
- Phil Leotardo: We're anonymous.
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [meeting in Johnny Sack's backyard] Phil has to understand that a punishment has been meted out, and what we are here for, in the end, is to provide, for our sons, our families, the future.
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: He doesn't accept that. His family is smaller by one.
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Then, my friend, it's up to you to make him accept that.
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: Make him?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Let's talk, John, about the 500-pound elephant in the room, which is that you started this cycle of bloodshed when you whacked that girl Carmine used to fuck.
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: Lorraine Caluzzo was not a girl. And what kind of man bangs his second cousin?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: What are you, the friggin' cardinal? Look, you want to shut down our joint construction projects, eat K-rations, fine. You want Phil to put one into one of my guys, well, that's gonna take you a long way from the rich prick you always wanted to be.
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: So, what do you suggest?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Whatever his legitimate sorrow is, his got a price, he wants to provide for his family.
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: And?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: and what?Meet his price, and that's it, I don't want to nothing else
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: Oh, you don't?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I paid enough, John, I paid a lot.
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: Maybe I can sell it. Truth is, we had discussions. I gave him the sports book.
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Yeah? Why didn't you say it right off, you cheap fuck?
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: Because I don't like it. He's gonna want a consiglieri, and who knows what...
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [before hugging each other] All right, all right, let's not go backwards now.
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: Those people you run into who want to be the boss. They should know, huh?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I told you, but you don't listen, you nut.
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: It's good, seeing you again
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I'm still looking forward to working with you, John.
- Tony Soprano: [to Silvio] All due respect, you got no fuckin' idea what it's like to be Number One. Every decision you make affects every facet of every other fuckin' thing. It's too much to deal with almost. And in the end you're completely alone with it all.
- Tony Soprano: [After killing Tony B to prevent him from being tortured by Phil, telling Johnny Sack over the phone where Tony B's body is] He's at 146 Route 9A, Kinderhook
- Carmela Soprano: [after Christopher lies to her about Adriana, who was killed by Silvio , saying she left him] I am devastated! I wish I could reach her. Is there a number?
- Christopher Moltisanti: [looking ponderously] Not that I know of.
- Tony Soprano: [while visiting Christopher in a motel room as he remains in hiding from Phil, referring the body of Tony Blundetto] you need to go up to the farm and pick up your cousin. You should go up there now: this morning. When you go up there, watch your back, and take him off the premises obviously. He should be buried, it should be you that does it
- Christopher Moltisanti: [Nods] you got it
- Tony Soprano: We never got a chance to talk in detail about Adriana
- Christopher Moltisanti: I know
- Tony Soprano: If you let something slip, if she saw anything
- Christopher Moltisanti: There were a couple of times I had her with me picking up collections at the Esplanade. The cigarettes, she was always nosing around
- Tony Soprano: Did you ever say anything about Ralph or the Bevilaqua kid?
- Christopher Moltisanti: No
- Tony Soprano: [Questioning Christopher's memory during that time because he was addicted to narcotics] Would you remember?
- Christopher Moltisanti: I swear on my life
- Christopher Moltisanti: [while Tony looks around the room and in the bathroom for drug paraphernalia] you won't any of that. I'm reading, lifting weights. I know what you think, you'll see. I'll prove myself to you. I only "chipped" that once: on the day with her. She willing to rat me out because she couldn't do five fuckin years. I thought she loved me
- Tony Soprano: She's a cunt. It does no good to think about that now
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: [after hearing Tony pounding on his front door] Who is it?
- Tony Soprano: Open this door!
- Tony Soprano: I want to talk to you. I hear you got some beefs. You want to phone everybody?
- Tony Soprano: [while walking into Paulie's living room and seeing his painting of him and his racing horse he originally wanted to have discarded] what the fuck?
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: I know you said you wanted the picture burnt T, but the picture moved me
- Tony Soprano: That's because you knew it cost me a fuckin arm and a leg
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: If it was in-quality work I'll admit that but I told the guys it was a chance of hanging a picture of you on my wall so I rescued it from the flames
- Tony Soprano: What's with the hat and shit?
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: Huh?
- Tony Soprano: Don't give me "huh."You know what it does to me? To be reminded of that fuckin horse?
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: I'm sorry T, but you don't come here no more, I didn't figure it'd be a problem
- Tony Soprano: [Referring to the FBI] I don't come here no more because they're watching all our houses. It's no good for us to visit
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: I know
- Tony Soprano: What do you and your whores get a big laugh out of that?
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: That's no joke T
- Tony Soprano: Then what the fuck is it?
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: That's no joke, it cost me a lot of money to get the re-touching done
- Tony Soprano: Then what the fuck you do it for? Don't bullshit me Paulie
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: Part of it was to fix some fire damage on the guy's feet but while I was at it, I also thought I don't have a modern look in here, so I'm going with something more traditional. Something that captures what your really all about
- Tony Soprano: A God damn lawn jockey?
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: That's not a lawn jockey, that's a general
- Tony Soprano: What general? Who?
- Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: That's not a real general from history
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after Junior hung up the phone, referring to Donnie K] oh, your sending a fruit basket to the kid, he'll appreciate it
- Junior Soprano: [Referring to his lawyer] It's for Mel, the poor guy had a stroke, can you believe it? His younger than me
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Melvoin? Jesus Christ that's terrible
- Junior Soprano: [Referring to the Italian-American slang for stupid or crazy] That's why I asked you to come over. His speech, he'll sound a little" stunad", probably forever, but get this: nine months maybe a year before he could work a full schedule, they'll have to postpone my retrial
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: No shit
- Junior Soprano: The question is should I use this to stall, then get a lawyer who's more with it?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: So, you heard about this thing with Phil and John?
- Junior Soprano: Bobby said something about this
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You're losing money apparently
- Junior Soprano: Yeah? How much?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I don't know, you got to talk to him
- Junior Soprano: John?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Bobby, does John do your collections?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Look, what'd you think? Phil's just beat one of our guys to an inch of his life, next time his going to kill somebody. What can I do? His my cousin
- Junior Soprano: [Confused, distracted] did I give him the office address or the home?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [while Junior looks through his phone book] I'm talking to you
- Junior Soprano: The man had a stroke, do you want it to go to the wrong place? Its fruit, it'll rot
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Hey, I pinned myself into a corner here and I don't see a way out
- Junior Soprano: But he wasn't made right? The kid? Phil's son
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after realizing Junior is developing dementia] it's ok, forget it
- Junior Soprano: [When seeing Tony shaking his head] I'm sorry Anthony but I'm fuckin all nonplussed with all this news
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Frankly I don't know, it's got a "squirrelly" in this house
- Junior Soprano: Tell Phil
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Tell Phil what?
- Junior Soprano: [as Tony stands up to leave] where you going? You wanted to confer with me?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: No, it's not important. Make sure you eat a little lunch today
- Tony Soprano: [to his captains and associates] I got something I want to say: my cousin Anthony went into business for himself. We all know this in a way which there is no excuse. His got a problem with rage. He disappointed me in ways I can't even begin to tell you and he put all of us at risk. Regardless, it's been made clear to me, if they put his hands on him, he will not be dealt with quick. I'm talking torture for that reason even if I knew where my cousin is and I do not. I will not deliver him up to them. I am offering him the same protection I would offer any of you in similar circumstances. Now I know what you're going to say "hey Tone, I would never do what he did." God bless I hope not. But we are a family and even in this fucked up day in age that means something. So we're going to deal with this as a family, together no matter how it affects anybody, personal safety-wise, financially-wise, whatever. I see my nephew isn't here, it's important he lamb it now and it's my desire to "circle the wagon" to support him
- Silvio Dante: [hands him an envelope] Claude Rains, about fifteen hundred there, should tie you over
- Benny Fazio: [in the driver's seat] Hey, Sil
- Silvio Dante: Hey, kid
- Christopher Moltisanti: [before Sil shakes his head] You want something, fries?
- Benny Fazio: [to Sil] Fuckin something this situation, huh?
- Silvio Dante: right
- Christopher Moltisanti: I can't even get down to Milt's, "fence" some jewelry
- Benny Fazio: Everybody with eyes in the back of their heads. Shit, I was Tony's driver
- Christopher Moltisanti: It's amazing, you want me to be honest? The favoritism Tony still shows for our cousin, after what his done and I'm supposed to take a bullet for this skeeve?
- Silvio Dante: All your uncle's done for you? I need to get into specifics?
- Carmela Soprano: [after telling him to hang up the phone in his room, referring to his college applications] I don't know what to say, you know? Those applications are late, you are cooked it's that simple and I do know this because I have raised you from day one, you are not gonna like working at MacDonald's
- A.J. Soprano: Could you amp up the drama a little?
- Carmela Soprano: You know what? I don't like sarcasm and I don't want you around next year sponging off of us so fine, I am withholding your allowance until all of those applications are done
- A.J. Soprano: That's not even practical and you know it
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after hearing them argue and entering the room, to Carmela] What's the matter?
- Carmela Soprano: He hasn't done his applications: he isn't getting allowance
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [sternly to AJ] no allowance
- A.J. Soprano: Actually, I have three hundred dollars of my own money
- Carmela Soprano: How?
- A.J. Soprano: Me and Matt put on a party: five dollars a person, made six hundred bucks after expenses
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [confused] What expenses?
- A.J. Soprano: The band
- Carmela Soprano: Is that what you've been on the phone about these last two weeks?
- A.J. Soprano: It may interest you to know, people said it was the best party all year
- Carmela Soprano: There was drinking there, I suppose?
- A.J. Soprano: We just let people into Matt's house, what they brought with them was not under our control
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [ignoring his explanation] Do your applications... now
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to Benny Fazio while he lays nonconscious in the hospital after being assaulted by Phil Leotardo] I want you to know this is gonna all be taken care of by the Plumbers Union health plan. I'm gonna see to that. You know what? We were talking here and I think it's time for you to get your own customers: you're getting a little too old to be beating people up
- Carmela Soprano: [when Tony returns home] I thought you were at Raymond's birthday dinner?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: left early
- Carmela Soprano: nice to be home: there's chicken parm. Was Christopher there?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: no
- Carmela Soprano: did you know that him and Adriana broke up?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: no, this kid, that's his trouble, he keeps it all "bottled up", then they wonder why they get chemical dependencies?
- Carmela Soprano: do you think there was somebody else?
- Carmela Soprano: [after he shrugs] because there was this one night: it was way back, movie night with the girls. Adriana was very upset, and she wanted to get "something" off her chest, then she just ran out of there crying. I bet she was seeing somebody?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: you never know about people
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: [referring to Tony telling John where Tony Blundetto was hiding, over the phone] it didn't solve a thing
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: it's over
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: [referring to Phil Leotardo] the fuck it is: his beside himself now
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: the "best thing" for him, for you, for all of us is to put this "thing" behind us and get back to business
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: how the fuck is that supposed to happen?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: it's something we gotta talk about. First step, I consider giving Phil a quarter of my points on the Bloomfield operation: it's what my cousin was running
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: [after thinking it over] I'm at Columbia Presbyterian all day. It's my yearly physical: an hour already I'm waiting for these fuckin doctors. Then, I got bone density tests, lipids, come into the city and we'll sit down
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: no offense but I got an IQ of 136, it's been tested
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: alright, tomorrow morning, my house, six thirty
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: what?
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: [raises his voice] I'm on the 9am to Miami, I have to get things in line down there
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: John...
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: [irritated, referring to John killing Tony with his wife at home] you think I'm gonna give you "armatz" with Ginny upstairs?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: alright, if you don't hear from me, I'll be there
- John 'Johnny Sack' Sacrimoni: [sternly, before hanging up] you and you alone. I'm not having Phil, nobody there
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [over the phone, referring to arresting him] The Feds just "hit" Johnny Sack, you heard anything?
- Neil Mink: I have Genler on my cell phone all the way over here: Jimmy Petrille was a collaborator, Brooklyn AUSA took down the whole Petrille crew, plus Johnny. It would've reached all the way to Carmine Sr. if he hadn't died
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Jimmy Petrille? He's a sweet old guy
- Neil Mink: He gave them gambling, homicide, trafficking: eighteen fuckin years worth, it's a major "crep lock", my friend
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I was fuckin there
- Neil Mink: What, where?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Johnny's house: my car's still in the driveway, I'm walking three miles towards my house
- Neil Mink: [jokingly] No law against parking your car, unless it's in front of a hydrant
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Stop laughing
- Neil Mink: No, of course not. Anyway, you weren't named in the indictment, obviously. It's Brooklyn, they weren't coming for you
- Carmela Soprano: [over the phone] is Adriana there?
- Christopher Moltisanti: no
- Christopher Moltisanti: I was just wondering what was going on? I stopped by Fortunoff's, she was supposed to get back to them with a final decision about her China patterns and she hasn't returned their calls, is everything alright?
- Christopher Moltisanti: we broke up
- Carmela Soprano: [shocked] what, why, what happened?
- Christopher Moltisanti: nothing. She left, broke my heart, moved out a couple days ago, I haven't seen her since
- Carmela Soprano: oh, no that's terrible, are you alright?
- Christopher Moltisanti: she "stiffed" me on the club: never showed up for work, the place is left rudderless
- Carmela Soprano: oh my God, is there anything I can do?
- Christopher Moltisanti: no, look, I gotta go, somebody's waiting for me
- Carmela Soprano: I am devastated, I wish I could reach her. Is there a number?
- Christopher Moltisanti: not that I know of
- Carmela Soprano: listen, there's other "fish in the sea"
- Christopher Moltisanti: I know... thanks
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [while in the Bada Bing strip club] you said you wanted to go home
- Silvio Dante: actually, I've been hanging around on purpose. I gotta talk to you
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: about what?
- Silvio Dante: look, I've been your Consigliere for a lot of years...
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [interrupts him] don't go into the preambles, just tell me what's on your mind?
- Silvio Dante: you got some unhappy people out there
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [surprised] no shit
- Silvio Dante: not just the young guys. I'm talking about guys that's been with you since the beginning, guys that worked for your father
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: fuckin Paulie, right?
- Silvio Dante: [not wanting to name names] nah, I'm not saying nothing
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: then God damn him
- Silvio Dante: these guys will do whatever you order
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: except in this case
- Silvio Dante: don't say it like that
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: forget that Tony Blundetto is my cousin, I give him up, we can give the whole fuckin "thing" up!
- Silvio Dante: here's where the conversation gets "difficult"
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: go
- Silvio Dante: all due respect, you were ready to hand in your cousin a week ago. So, it's not about standing with the guys, or upholding some rules, not really
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: then what's it all about, why don't you "illuminate" me?
- Silvio Dante: it's about you eating shit from John, you don't wanna "bow down." You told him to go fuck himself which to be honest, wasn't exactly "appropriate"
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [sarcastically] oh, is that right?
- Silvio Dante: all due respect
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [irritated] what the fuck do you know what goes on inside my head?
- Silvio Dante: I've known you since you were a kid. Frankly, you got a problem with authority. This attitude of yours, it's a lot of what's made you an effective leader. We all got flaws, even you, seven deadly sins, and yours is... pride
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [pulls his chair closer to Sil] all due respect, you got no fuckin idea what it's like to be Number One. Every decision you make affects every facet of every other fuckin thing. It's too much to deal with almost. And in the end, you're completely alone with it all
- Silvio Dante: I'm sorry you feel that way
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: this is the "course" I've chosen and those of you that are not with me on it, well that makes me sad and it'll be dealt with in time
- Carmela Soprano: What're you doing up?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Snow blower, I told AJ to fix this leak while I was still living at my mother's. What's going on with him? Every time I go by the room, his flopped down on the bed, on the phone
- Carmela Soprano: I am so sick of nagging him and if he thinks his gonna get into East Stroudsburg state, he is sadly mistaken
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [while looking out the kitchen window into his backyard] Look at this kid out there, the gardener's son, can't ask this one to take out the trash
- Carmela Soprano: Poverty is a great motivator
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You think we gave AJ too much?
- Carmela Soprano: No, and you look at Meadow, same house, same everything, she's doing great
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: She takes after you, maybe?
- Carmela Soprano: Don't do that, his my son too
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Well, I got that appointment with his coach today, maybe he's got a clue?
