- We were watching ed Sullivan.

- That Tommy mottola, he's one slow motherfucker.
- What's it been, about a year?
- Actually, we're not going with Sony.
- We're considering a smaller independent label.
- Oh, naturally. Got any coffee?
- I may only have soy milk.
- What?

- My responsibility.
- You waited a long time for the stripes.
- This is one of the perks.

- The county does not cover medical procedures deemed caused...
- By criminal sexual activity.
- Section four, paragraph 15.
- We'll need an insurance number.
- Oh, Madonna.
- I have bluecross blueshield, is that all right?
- Ma'am, could you hold on for one second?
- I have the hospital on the other line.

- How many times do I gotta say this?
- When guys are on the mattresses, they're not out earning.
- So? What?
- All Phil cares about is fucking money.
- He's got that wire room in sheepshead bay, right?
- Our guys have seen it.
- Yeah.

- Presenters get about $30,000 worth of merchandise in those baskets.
- That's a year's salary for some people.
- Go figure.
- Hopefully we can spread some of that lolly around.
- We'll get you that script.

- I'll go get some ice.
- What the fuck were you thinking?
- You're my wife. He insulted you.
- I'm a big girl.
- I can take care of myself.
- Oh, god, he is head of the family.
- Do you think he's just gonna wake up tomorrow and forget about this?

- It's heavy. Is it loaded?
- Nothing more useless than an unloaded gun.
- There you go.
- Mr. Waste management.
- Come here.

- You're listening to the stations of member-supported
- New Hampshire public radio.
- We're webo, Concord 89.1; webj, Jackson 99.5 fm.
- This is New Hampshire public radio, news and information for the granite state.

- I'm gonna have to search your bag.
- Cigarettes are okay, right?
- Cigarettes are fine.
- They're encouraged for patients who smoke.
- But, Chris, no chocolate allowed.
- No caffeine or substances containing caffeine.
- All set?

- You know, the truth is,
- I got myself where I am.
- But your open indiscretion, your total disregard...
- Well, you're right, it was...
- It was horrible.
- To have a knot in your stomach every time the phone rings.
- Like you were saying, theoretically, though, if we do reconcile...
- That stuff will never happen again.

Tony: What do you get when you cross an accountant with a giant jet airplane? -- A Boring 747.

- How my what?
- How your daughter made out at bowdoin.
- Would you like anything else?
- No.
- Tony, did I do something to insult you?
- Two days.

- But, Tony, come on.
- You're a nice guy, but I got my own problems.
- I don't want all the time prop you up.
- What, are you fucking kidding me?
- What you doing?
- I didn't expect you so soon.
- Tell my uncle I'll talk to him later.

- Piacere.
- Piacere, Tony.
- Psst.
- George-a Washington-a, bridge-a.
- Right, very good,
- George Washington bridge.
- Let's talk about something else, and later we'll talk about the streets.

[while playing hearts]
Salvatore: I've eaten more queens than Lancelot.

- Dollars to donuts, you're being exposed to an irritant in the air.
- I sit in an office.
- I'll write you a scrip for cortisone cream.
- Dr. Cusamano tells me you've been seeing a psychotherapist.
- So?
- I suggest you talk about stress management with him.

Meadow: They almost killed you for a stupid car.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I guess nobody told them about the kind of gas mileage that thing gets, huh mead?

Angelo: Well I'm an old fucking man. I don't see so good in the dark!

Silvio: the fuck you doin? Lunch is ready
Paulie: I'm gonna watch my hands
Silvio: you just watched your hands
Paulie: and then I tied my shoes
Silvio: so what?
Paulie: I can't stand touching fuckin shoelaces: you ever go and tie your shoes, and notice the end of your laces are wet? For what? Why would they be wet?
Silvio: I got no fuckin idea
Hesh: you ever go to public bathrooms? And stand at the urials...
Hesh: [interrupts him, irritated, not wanting to hear and talk about un-sanitized bathrooms while they eat] oh come on, will ya?
Paulie: [to Hesh, referring to Silvio] his asking, I'm telling him and frankly, it's important. Even if the laces are dry and even if you don't touch the body of the shoe, bacteria and viruses migrate from the sole up
Christopher: you see this on TV?
Paulie: I gotta watch TV to figure out the world? Your average shithouse is a sewer. You look at lady's johns', you can eat maple walnut ice cream from the toilets: there's exceptions, but in men's? Piss all over the fuckin floor, urials jammed with cigarettes and mothball cakes, it does nothin to kill germs: even if you keep your shoes tied and you're not dragging your laces through urine...
Silvio: [interrupts him, annoyed] shut the fuck up

- I want to share it with you.
- By Jacques prevert...
- "Our father which art in heaven, stay there, and we shall stay on earth, which is sometimes so pretty."

- You know, it's always something with her.
- You should see the veterinarian bills.
- Fucking racket.
- Know what we should do, if you don't mind my saying?
- I think we should switch her shoes to those titanium ones.
- They don't weigh anything...
- So they're good for a tender hoof.
- Sure. Why not?

- and good things.
- We can have it all, Phil...
- Plenty for everybody.
- Stop cryin' now.
- We should let him sleep.
- We gotta stop meeting like this, huh?

Tony: [while getting dressed] what time is it?
Christopher: Don't worry we'll take the tunnel
Tony: Alright, this meeting we're trying to nail down this new contract now with Masserone gone
Christopher: That office park by Troy Hills?
Tony: Now, listen this is very important if any of this shit about Little Carmine and Johnny you clam up
Christopher: You got it Tone

- I'm no good at speeches.
- Owe him a dime, you'll hear some great speeches.
- Shit. Shut up, let me talk.
- Go ahead. I was only kidding.
- I'd like everybody to raise their glasses.

Jim: [on the phone] Hello?
Vito: Hi!
Jim: Fuck you!
Vito: I know, look...
Jim: Not a word. Not a note. What kind of person are you?
Vito: You're right, I'm sorry.
Jim: You need help. You're seriously fucked up!
Vito: I got kids, I couldn't live without them.
Jim: Bullshit! It was the fucking life that you couldn't live without. The gambling, the money, who knows what else!
Vito: You're right. I didn't want to drag you into this pit I'm in.
Jim: Hey, fuck that! Everybody else is stupid to you, aren't they?
Vito: No!
Jim: You can live and throw it down in fucking Jersey. Everybody kisses your ass!
Vito: I miss you.
Jim: I don't wanna know you! I don't want to hear your voice. Don't ever call me again!
[hangs up]

- If that's the way it is, that's the way it is. I'll see you.
- Aren't you forgetting something?
- What?
- I'm looking out for you here.
- I gotta eat too, right?
- Yeah, sure. I'll take care of you.
- I'll be by every Sunday.
- Cool.

- What the fuck did you do?
- Hel... help!
- All right, I got you.
- Stop fighting me.
- All right.
- Don't...
- All right, turn around.
- Grab the side.
- Grab the side right there.
- All right.

- John wants things to point away from the family.
- You know what? Tell him no.
- Time and again
- I've done his bidding.
- It's time to set some limits.
- Really?
- Yeah, really.
- Be well.

Carmela: Now, you liked Jackie, so you don't want to believe that he did this to himself. So, like a lot of other people, you go around looking for bogeymen to blame - bogeymen with Italian names.

- Dad. This is Judy.
- She's my friend.
- Scene.
- UN-freaking-believable!
- God, you were really good.
- Great job, Chris.
- How'd you cry like that?

Manny: [during their news broadcast] Inevitably, "what goes in must come out"
Reporter: And these people now being released from prison are from the ones who were jailed in the big mafia crackdown from the 1980's?
Manny: It seems like yesterday, doesn't it? For years, we've heard how law enforcement broke the "back" of the mob. Well, they've served their time, it's the old never-ending battle against crime and corruption to quote Superman
Reporter: So, what'd you think is going to happen with this "infusion" of "new blood"?
Manny: We could be looking at a period of "potentially" violent power struggle
Reporter: Any familiar names?
Manny: In New York, the only "old style" boss still in place is Carmine Lupertazzi, he'll soon by rejoined by Angelo Garepe his former Consigliere, also Philip Leotardo: long time Lupertazzi captain. New Jersey's a better case in point: you've got Michele "Feech" La Manna released just this week, a man greatly feared and respected in the 70's. Similar situation with Anthony Blundetto in the same crime family: the Sopranos, twenty-eight years old when he went away, a rising star, thought to be the central suspect in the car bomb killing of Thomas Jilardi and his driver
Reporter: So, would you say that this is an "interesting point" in the history of the mafia?
Manny: I'd say we're looking at a great year for crime reporting

- I just wanna see you sometimes.
- Couple nights a week.
- I'm not gonna say I love you. I say that too soon and I'm trying to work on that.
- But I really like you.
- I like you too, honey...
- But it's not gonna happen.
- Why? Why not?
- For one thing, I already took his horse.

- That scene where pesci sticks the guy's head in a vise...
- And then pops his eye out.
- I thought I was gonna die!
- I'll be right back, okay?
- Excuse me.
- It's this way?
- Yes.
- Thank you.

- Anthony?
- You don't understand.
- Make me understand.
- We can't send him to that place.
- Yes?
- How we gonna save this kid?

Gabriella: [to Carmela] Really, though, how dare he? After all you've done for this parish!
Carmela: [resigned] What are you gonna do?
Gabriella: [after a long pause] Well, I'm gonna cut him a new one.

- Who was that?
- Silvio.
- Listen to this.
- Furio called. The stupid fucking zip moved back to Italy.
- Asshole left a message on the answering machine at the bing at 4:30 am.
- Here, carry this.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [has invited Dr. Melfi to go to Bermuda with him] Come on, Doc. I'm breaking out the big guns here. You're turning me into half a stalker.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Listen, Anthony. I'm not going to go out with you, and it's not because you're unattractive or I don't think I would have a good time. It's just something I'm not going to do. I would like you to respect my decision, and just try to feel that I know what's right for me. Okay?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: It's not just the doctor-patient ethics thing, is it?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I want to preserve the option for you that you could always come back to our work, if you wish, and that we could pick up where we've left off.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [frustrated] I don't think you get this. I want you!
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: That's very flattering to me.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I'm not interested in flattering you.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I know you're not.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Alright, then what is it? Just help me understand it.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You know, Anthony, during our work I never judged you, or your behavior. It's not the place of a therapist to do so.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Alright, I get all this. Go, go.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: In a personal relationship, I don't think I could sit silent.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [amused] About what?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Our values are... just very different.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You don't like my values.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Honestly?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Yeah.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: No.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [admiring her bluntness] OK. Like what?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: It's getting late.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: No, no. Come on. It's okay.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Well... you're not a truthful person. You're not respectful of women. You're not really respectful of people.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I don't love people?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Maybe you love them, I don't know. You take what you want from them by force, or the threat of force. I couldn't live like that. I couldn't bear witness to violence...
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: FUCK YOU!
[storms out]
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You fucking cunt!

- Nobel prize for what? Packing fudge?
- You know that you can go anywhere you want to go to college.
- But I'm not gonna pay for Berkeley.
- I want to go to Harvard or west point.
- You may get to see them on TV, but that's about it.
- To go there you gotta crack the books.

- What's going on, Mary?
- Domenica paolini and Sasha caputo.

- Englewood cliffs. You interested?
- And I get served with black-eyed peas tomorrow? Yo, I know what time it is.
- Massive's heard of the crew you with.
- There's business to be done.

Tony: [sees Chris barbecuing] Oh, look at that wrist action! All those years yankin' it are finally startin' to pay off.

Tony: This psychiatry shit. Apparently what you're feelin' is not what you're feelin' and what you're not feelin' is your real agenda.

- Yeah.
- Work...
- Socialize...
- But still having a mastery.
- Not easy.
- But interesting as shit.

Tony: [while going through their refrigerator, referring to Janice] can she put anymore gook food in here?
Carmela: It's not that much
Tony: Soy milk this, tofu that: I hate all that shit
A.J. Soprano: Yeah me too
Meadow: [to AJ] shut up you said you liked the soy milk
A.J. Soprano: I lied, she was taking me to the video store
Meadow: I'm happy aunt Parvati is gonna stay
Tony: Oh, you mean the aunt that doesn't think you get punished enough?
Meadow: [raises her voice] that party wasn't my fault, how many fucking times do I have to say it?
Tony: [surprised by her outburst] Whoa!
Carmela: [chastising her for cursing] hey!
Carmela: [to Meadow] don't look like your gonna cry, you made your bed
Meadow: I need fifteen dollars
Carmela: Excuse me?
Meadow: The Cole Porter CD: it's for Magicals, we're doing three of their songs. You took my card remember?

Meadow: [before leaving] nothing

Christopher: [At the Cleaver movie premiere after party, walking up to him] what?
Tony: [Hugs him, referring to the resemblance of a character in the movie] what? I'll give you a "what", fuckin boss down in the cellar, wearing a white bathrobe, where'd you get that?
Christopher: I don't know. "Artistic choice"
Tony: Seriously though, I'm very proud, whatever else happened, you made a movie Christopher. Nobody can take that away. A hundred years from now when we're dead and gone, people are going to be watching this fuckin thing
Christopher: You know how much Imperial vodka I scored just this party alone? I had a couple cases put down in your car

- Is that a Porsche?
- Had my eye on it for months.
- It's a gift from Tony.
- I thought about a Boxster, but I don't know.
- The 'vette felt more like me.
- You bought that yourself?
- The accountant says I'm better off owning it outright.

- It would be for you.
- Well, I want you. And not just for the smart things you say.
- I want... I want your skin.
- I want your mouth. I want your eyes.
- You project all these qualities onto me.
- You don't know me.
- This is what happens between doctor and patient.

- Gentlemen, can I get you anything?
- Orange county firefighters have called in extra help from the California department of forestry aircraft...

- Are you still taking your medication?
- Off and on.
- You should either take it or don't take it. Okay?

- Hit him! Hit that prick!
- No, Carlo!
- Carlo!
- Get him off me!
- How's that, you fuck?
- Olé!

Christopher: [to Adriana] Hey, you got change? I'm fucking sliding this stupid bill in and out of the cigarette machine for like an hour.
Tina: [suggestively] An hour? I bet you can go longer than that!
Christopher: Listen to you! Why do you always talk like a whore?
Tina: 'Cause men like it!
Christopher: Yeah?
[pauses, looks her over]
Christopher: Think you're right about that.

- and I will be judged for it.
- You're a good father.
- You care about your friends.
- Yes, it's been rough between us.
- I don't know, our hearts get so hardened against each other.
- I don't know why.

- You look good.
- Feelgood.
- So how we doing?
- Took care of mine last night.
- The Johnson brothers, we'll get tonight.
- Uncle pat was like Johnny mnemonic.
- Right, uncle pat?

Tony: Alright, listen, thanks

- Yeah, but I stayed here as a guest just last night.
- You couldn't sign on that bill, you've already closed it out.
- Thanks for being so helpful.

Artie: [referring to Elodi, after seeing Charmaine ask her to remove empty plates from a table] she's a hostess: not a busboy
Charmaine: [impersonating Elodi clapping] what was that all about, huh?
Artie: it's just a venture capital "thing" with Jean-Philippe, I'm sure it wouldn't pass your incredibly high Wharton School of Business standards
Charmaine: you want to make some "meaningful" money, why don't you get your friend Anthony Soprano to pay his tab? It's close to six thousand dollars
Artie: [before he flicks his chin] I could have an "empire" like Bobby Flay, and it still wouldn't be good enough for you
Charmaine: ok, I'll make you a deal, we'll start working on your "empire" right after we pay the ten thousand dollars of orthodonture our children will need this year

[Tony disapproves of Meadow's new boyfriend because he is black]
Carmela: If you want her to be with him, just keep playing the race card. You're gonna drive her right into his arms.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Not if I cut off those fuckin' arms.

- Playing bingo, Livia?
- Oh, not tonight, honey.
- You know, she's a degenerate gambler.
- Milly. Milly?
- My son.
- Handsome.

- You flip your Maserati, hit your head?
- You two-faced fuck!
- Take it easy.
- You wanna yell at somebody, the man you should talk to is right over there.
- That fucking cocksucker.
- I should fucking kill him and his fucking wife and your cousin next.
- All right, come on.
- Let's take a walk, calm down. Come on.

- I'll get back to the writing someday...
- But from a position of great wealth.
- Far as male modeling,
- I'd probably be a success...
- But I wouldn't want to be around those fucking people.
- I'm a soldier, Adriana.
- When you gonna understand that?

- That's the way certain people want it, and we trust there will be no ill will.
- This is fucking great. I mean,
- I know I'm just the acting, but still...
- It's a big responsibility, Chrissy.
- Hey, I got it covered.
- First thing I'm doing is getting wings in my hair.
- You know, like Paulie.
- I'll talk to you later.

- Not long before your father.
- Past is the past.
- This is the present.
- Let's talk about this game.
- What's my end?
- I don't know. Ten percent.
- Twenty.
- Fifteen.
- Call your friends.
- Let them know the game's happening.

- Commanders, good morning.
- Who are you?
- I'm from america.
- Are you with NATO?
- You cut our ski-lift cable.

- for Jackie and Jackie Jr., right?
- You know, we never really talked about that.
- About what?
- About Jackie Jr.
- What's there to talk about?
- Madame.
- Oof, madonn'.
- Pour madame...

Artie: [referring to their daughter's soccer coach after they win a game] What did I tell you? He's a beautiful, brilliant genius
Tony: [jokingly] What're you in love with him or what?
Artie: [jokingly] Frankly yes, if he steers Chiara through the college scholarships, I'll blow the guy in midfield
Tony: Oh, you will? How's chef with the dimples?
Artie: You gotta come sample the salad bar: we got a special chemical brightener, it keeps the lettuce crisp
Tony: Oh, nice
Artie: Oh, yeah, it's beautiful
Tony: [changing the subject] The offer's still there, you wanna make a little money, you put some out on the street, at two points, we split the interest?

Christopher: [after rushing into the Bada Bing strip club to tell everyone about Vito] You are not going to fuckin' believe this...
James: [Interrupts him, to everyone] Vito Spatafore is an "ass muncher".
Tony: [to Murmur] What'd you just say?
James: I'm sorry, it's true.
Christopher: We ran into this kid, Vito was spotted in a fag bar in New York.
Tony: By who?
Christopher: The kid's cousin... Allegedly.
James: Probably bullshit.
Patsy: He's a married man.
Paulie: With a goomah!
Tony: All right, back up a second. What did the kid say exactly?
Christopher: The kid's cousin, Sally Cuzo...
Carlo: From Yonkers, I know him.
Christopher: Sal was at this place in the city supposedly on business, and he saw Vito holding hands with a guy with nipple rings.
James: You're leaving out the best part.
Christopher: He was wearing a motorcycle outfit like the guy in the Village People with the hat and leather vest.
James: Chaps too.
Paulie: I don't know... Fuckin' slander if you ask me.
Tony: [suggesting to everyone to talk privately in the office] All right, let's take this in the back.
James: [Making a joke] Yeah, that's what Vito did!
Tony: [Irritated, not amused by his joke] You can go.

Tony: [while talking privately in Junior's doctor's clinic] so you ok with this?
Corrado: Do I got a "choice"?
Tony: [jokingly] Yeah, you got a "choice", you can continue running the game
Corrado: You know I'm under fuckin house arrest you "cute" fuck
Tony: Well, then take the "bite" I give you and be happy: either way, I'm having the Executive Game
Corrado: You know, your father and me started that game over thirty years ago, we were talking one day on how credit card companies you know, how they worked their "angle?" They didn't care what the fuck you bought: as long as you didn't pay all at once. They'd "juice" your debt and you'd thank them for letting you have one of their cards. There's a certain kind of player: that's why we call it the "Executive Game", my brother Johnny was one keen motherfucker
Tony: [Sarcastically] oh yeah, that's why he left us with Chee Chee Beans
Corrado: [Amused] you don't know what you're talking about. Your father left Livia with a "package" that could choke a fuckin elephant. I gotta tell you? She's like a woman with a Virginia ham under her arm and crying the blues because she has no bread. Please, they don't make them like Johnny

Carmela: [after Tony arrives home] Oh, thank God, where is the number of the therapist Melfi gave you?
Tony: Why? What happened?
Carmela: Your daughter, she's going to Europe: dropping out of school and going all over the place on a Euro pass
Tony: What, is she fucking kidding?
Carmela: Apparently not, her passport from the Christmas in the Bahamas is still valid
Tony: Where is she?
Carmela: I don't know, down the shore
Tony: Oh, I suppose all these parties she goes to are all memorials for Jackie Jr., right?
Carmela: Please with the yelling
Tony: So, what the fuck is in Europe?
Carmela: Experience, "real life", art
Tony: You know I knew when this constant "harping" on art was gonna cause trouble
Carmela: She's going to work in publicity with some friend of Misty's and going to make a movie in Denmark. I think we should call that therapist
Tony: She's going back to school: they got counselors there, better ones, Ivy league ones. No fucking way she's going to Europe
Carmela: Fine

- Ai, this is a big fucking mix-up.
- I thought Paulie called you.
- The guy's waiting.
- So you break in?
- I got a silent alarm goes right to my house.
- He'll take care of you. Don't worry.
- Let me talk to my son-in-law.
- Chris?
- Fine by me, but if I were you, I wouldn't make a problem where there ain't one.

Paulie: [while on the Asbury Park boardwalk] we gonna go see your boat?
Tony: [referring to Big Pussy Bonpensiero] no, I'm just... thinking about our former "friend"
Paulie: who?
Paulie: [surprised, after Tony gestures to the ocean] him? Not me: never
Tony: me and Jackie, met him down in 95, when he got back from Boca
Paulie: oh, yeah, that crazy shit with your uncle. Junior hijacked Jackie's truck, what about it?
Paulie: [referring to Pussy becoming an FBI informant] we should've seen it then: that's all
Tony: don't waste another second on that rat fuck. I'd kill him again if I could. Tommy Angeletti is doing a rebar at the Esplanade
Paulie: yeah?
Paulie: his into me for a hundred large on college basketball. Now Ralphie is holding up the contract for more money: his got the site shutdown on a strike, Angeletti can't work
Tony: [sternly] your fuckin book against millions that are gonna roll in from the Esplanade
Paulie: I figured you'd take a side but Ralphie shouldn't come across a couple no-show and electrician jobs? I shouldn't get something out of this Esplanade?
Tony: [after thinking it over] alright, I'll talk to him

- Kick leaves and shit over it.
- Where did you learn how to drive one of those?
- Grandfather's construction site.
- He let me fuck around when I was just 13.
- He was a good guy.

- What the fuck?
- Never you mind about that.
- Aw, she's so sweet.
- I remember my Johnny told me, she let him feel her up behind "the sons of Italy" hall.
- Listen Livia, what you don't know could fill a book.

Finn: It was the other way around. Vito was blowing the security guard.
Paulie: Son of a bitch!

- The hairs on the back of my neck, they fucking stood up.
- I knew the guy.
- They made him look like
- John-fucking-gotti.
- I brought him around here.
- Tony wouldn't have never known him if it wasn't for me.
- I had no idea.

- We thought we were gonna have to talk to each other or read a book.
- The usual, guys?
- Are we boring?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Here's yourjohnnycakes.
- I gotta warn you, they're addictive.
- They look good.

- I'm going to have to insist that you guys leave.
- Getting this breathing tube back in is something you're not gonna want to see.
- What's going on?
- You're just getting back?
- Matt's car wouldn't start.
- Did you eat at least?
- Yeah.
- Dad's not so good right now.
- They made us leave.

- Oh, I could sleep right here.
- It's all right. He'll be okay.

Christopher: The Russians? They're not all bad.
Paulie: How about the Cuban Missile Crisis? Cocksuckers moved nuclear warheads into Cuba, pointed 'em right at us.
Christopher: That was real? I saw that movie, I thought it was bullshit.

- I can put the credit card numbers on actual plastic for an extra five bills.
- We do Internet strictly.

Anthony: You know, people walk around like this is all somethin' and fuckin' laughin' and nobody takes even one second to think about what's really goin' on.
Dr. Richard Vogel: You sound depressed again.
Anthony: I mean, how can anybody not be? You'd have to be fucking nuts not to be. I mean, you'd have to have your head wedged so far up your ass that all you could see is your own stupid face!
Dr. Richard Vogel: What specifically are you talking about?
Anthony: I mean, everything is so fucked up. Why can't we all just get along?
[cries]

Tony: [Meeting privately] Let's walk. I need you to head out to Newark for me
Paulie: Airport?
Tony: Alitalia. Friend of ours is coming in
Paulie: Who? Mauro Zucca's wife?
Tony: No, Furio
Paulie: [jokingly] Furio? Coming here? What? To see what indoor plumbing looks like?
Tony: I'm making some changes
Paulie: [Sarcastically] well, thanks for fuckin telling me. When was this decided? Did I do something wrong?
Tony: Sunday: my house, a box of Mallomars on the counter, fuckin empty... you think I didn't know it was you?
Tony: [When Paulie doesn't respond] I'm kiddin' with you, you fuck. Him coming over is good: you're getting a bump
Paulie: Fuckin Mallomars, I thought you lost your mind?
Tony: Listen, the way things are, I gotta step back, Feds find an excuse and I'll do a dime for jaywalking
Paulie: Not like the old days, huh?
Tony: Furio being here frees you up, frees me up. It's me, then you, and Sil together, that's the new pecking order
Paulie: What about Puss?
Tony: Pussy reports to you guys, directly, same with Furio
Paulie: [after hugging] this means a lot to me

- It's fucking alive! It's alive!
- Oh, my god! Oh, my god!
- Tony, what did you do?
- It's for you.
- Oh, my god!
- Yeah. We're having a good week.
- Ah, ah, ah.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Hands him a wooden box] for you
Brian: What's this?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Jokingly] a music box
Brian: [after opening the box, surprised by the expensive watch as a gift] holy shit a Patek?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Yeah, me and Ralph got lucky in a new real estate investment
Brian: [Surprised] you actually did it?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Nods, smiles]
Brian: Tony, I was only speculating I never meant for you to...
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Interrupts him, reassures him] relax, your name will never come up

- It's on the table.
- All right. Go, go, go.
- Go, go, go.
- Hold it, hold it!
- Open up, it's me.
- Come on, open the fucking door.
- Where's the patient?

- Waste management.
- Do you know any other garbage men who live like this?
- Uncle Jackie.
- Why do we call him "uncle" when he's not related?
- He's in dad's other family.
- Come here.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: It's been a long odyssey with your mother, hasn't it?
Tony: Oh, these last 500 years just seemed to race by.

[repeated line]
Livia: I wish the Lord would take me now.

- It stops today, you got it?
- Don't give me your fucking manson lamps, just fucking stop.
- Another thing, don't tip a truck on a problem customer.
- I fucking hate the way you make me fucking ride you.
- Now, get the fuck out of here.

Carmela: [running into each other in the supermarket] Hi, how are you?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: How are you is more the point
Carmela: I'm running around crazy here: my son was supposed to get coffee but he told the maid to, it's the one thing I have to have. I got your note, it was so thoughtful
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I've been calling the hospital and they say Anthony is stabilized
Carmela: That's what they say
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: If you or anyone needs anything, to talk or to run winterference with the doctors, don't hesitate to call
Carmela: I appreciate that, I have plenty of people around I can talk to
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Of course, good luck

- Yeah?
- Black Cadillac.
- Route 228.
- Mm-hmm.
- This is for you.
- Have a good night.
- Franklin Pierce room.
- Up the stairs, first door to the right.

- Carmela.
- Carm!

[while shopping for a dress for Jackie Aprile Jr.'s funeral, Adriana carelessly divulges several private details to her newfound friend, whom the audience knows is an undercover FBI Agent]
Adriana: Miss? Can you tell me where I can find something more dressy? Not evening, but muted?
Saleswoman: I'll go look.
FBI: [approches Adriana] They have this great, little black cocktail I saw over there.
Adriana: Hmmm. Those I have. Thing is, it's for a funeral.
FBI: Oh. I'm so sorry.
Adriana: Yeah. Guy was, like, 22.
FBI: Car accident?
Adriana: Actually, murder. It was a cousin of mine. Anyway, the last time I went to a funeral, my boyfriend bitched me out over what I wore to his boss's mother's wake. I said, 'Come on! You think Tony even noticed for, like, one minute what I had on?' But he keeps on about everything!

- It's not your fault.
- Look, I'm sorry about your leg.
- I'll reach Janice.
- Janice put any food in there?
- No, but I have orangejuice.
- Plus there are two Miller genuines.
- And your mother's meat delivery still is coming every week.

- And listen to that.
- I think it's great.
- I'm going food shopping.
- Maybe I'll get in the bedroom.
- What time you want me to wake you?
- The movie.
- Oh, yeah.
- Good.
- Have fun.

- Oh, my god.
- I didn't wanna tell you.
- Look, we're doing everything we can.
- We're gonna find him.
- We'll get him help.
- We'll get him to rehab.
- Let's just hope he's not too far gone.

- But I held myself back!
- You were being prudent.
- Fuckthat
- I lost it.
- Timing couldn't have been worse, but what the fuck?
- So you go to Phil...
- I go with you, hats in hand, bended knees.

Supervisor: Is that your garage?
Feech: Nah. It's where I make my weapons of mass destruction.

- Who sent you here?
- Richie aprile.
- Richie aprile?
- We'll be done before beansie's home from the hospital.
- Get out of here.
- I don't want anything to do with that man after what he did.
- She's got problems, but I'm not gonna tell Richie this isn't getting done.

- Fine.
- You were pretty upset when you left...
- And I wanted to call.
- I began to rue what happened, and I was probably a little...
- I'm going back with my husband.
- Oh, well, that's good.
- Well, all the best.

- Shit like that could be poisonous, you don't know. Come on.
- What?
- What the fuck is that?
- Looks like a truck.
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: Ah!
- There's fucking gravel under this snow!
- Back wheels are gone.

- Got some girl to take care of my mother.
- Yeah, where'd you find her?
- Agency.

Christopher: [to both of them] What's up?
Tony: hey there, cous
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Guess who called me this morning?
Christopher: How'd you find me?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: What, you're not gonna guess?
Christopher: Ok, who?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [beginning to talk in code, referring to Uncle Pat Blundetto] Our friend with the orchard
Christopher: No shit, is he ok?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Yeah, sold the place, moving to Florida
Christopher: He should: his getting into his "honor years"
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [implying to the dead body Christopher buried in the area] You still got your can of peaches up there, I just had the car serviced: watch what you say
Christopher: I gotta move that shit, again?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: that development is going up there. Now, obviously, it wouldn't be good for you or our friend if somebody opened the can of fruit
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [referring to Tony Blundetto] so, you and your cousin here are gonna go up there and take care of it
Christopher: [to both of them] I'll do it
Tony: [to Christopher] I'm worried about the old guy
Christopher: [to Tony B] I told you, I'll do it
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: The thing is my old man's got a few jaws up there also, it could make problems for my uncle
Tony: [to Christopher] It's gonna be a lot of work which with Louise around, it could only be done at night
Christopher: That's true
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [referring to digging up the remains and disposing them somewhere else] This thing's gotta be done in two weeks, the latest, bulldozers are coming

- Come on, we have people arriving.
- Let's go.
- Thank you so much. Thank you.
- I'm so sorry.
- Look at her.
- She's becoming a robot, like us.
- I'm so sorry.
- At least she didn't suffer.
- All her innocence is gone.

- Renata?
- What?
- Go to the bedroom and lock the door.
- Hesh, what's going on?
- Do as I ask.

- You're off?
- Yeah.
- I'm goin' downtown.
- Me, too.
- Let's go.
- See ya next week, Joe.

Carmela: The real reason I stopped by to see you was to make sure you've recovered from this Noah thing. I'm worried it'll affect your grades.
Meadow: You call losing a wonderful man because of Dad a thing?
Carmela: Is that really what happened? Because you certainly kept seeing him long after that business with your father.
Meadow: Look, don't drag me into whatever bullshit accommodational pretense you've got worked out with Daddy.
Carmela: What was that, last night's reading assignment?

Christopher: [raises glass] To business.
Paulie: You're goin' to jinx me? Toast with water?
Christopher: Club soda. What's your problem?
Paulie: You got the problem, my friend. You're a real fuckin' drip lately.
Christopher: When I was usin', I was a disgrace; now I'm sober, and I'm a drip. The fuck you want from me?
Paulie: How's about bein' normal? That so fuckin' hard?
Christopher: Actually, yeah, Paulie, for some of us it is.
Paulie: Don't get cunty, I'm breakin' your balls... What do ya say we take a ride? A little prime rib, on me.
Christopher: Maybe next time.
Paulie: What are you watchin' your cholesterol now too?
Christopher: Yeah. Fuckin' hilarious.
[gets up and leaves]

Carmela: I swear to god, I'm gonna fucking kill you!
A.J. Soprano: What the fuck?
Carmela: You made the fool of yourself and our family on national fucking television!
A.J. Soprano: I didn't say that shit! They totally misquoted me!
Meadow: Holy shit.
Carmela: Well, of course they did. That's what they do! Which is why I and everybody else told you: don't talk to the press!
A.J. Soprano: You're the one who look like a total asshole, dragging me around like I was five years old!
Carmela: You're cross to bear, that's all you are, to your father, to me, to everybody!
A.J. Soprano: Fuck this! All right? Fuck it all!
[leaving his room]
Hugh: [to Carmela] Jesus, Mel! The hell's wrong with you?
Carmela: What's wrong with me? What's wrong with ME?
[she leaves]

Tony: [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

- I only told you I wanted to be a coach because I liked playing ball.
- But I was just shining you on, because that's what I do.
- I told you many times, Anthony, you were special.
- You had smarts, personality, leadership potential.
- All the prerequisites to lead young men onto the field of sport.
- And now look at the stress you live with.

- My friend, Josh, from crossroads high school, I didn't tell you?
- No.
- Sorry, I thought I did.
- Anyway, he's coming in and we're gonna head up and see his brother at Hampshire.
- Try and get some rest, okay?

- Called 911, they're on their way.
- He's all right.
- Oh, my god.
- Oh, my baby.
- Take her upstairs, Andy.
- She should probably take one of those tranquilizers her mother gave her.
- We should go, junior.
- Relax. We just got here.
- Chicken's nice and spicy, huh?

A.J. Soprano: [Talking privately in their garage] What now?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Hands AJ a business card] Tomorrow 7am you go to this address and for a Mr. Gaveralo, I just got off the phone with him
A.J. Soprano: Seven in the morning? For what?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You'll be working construction
A.J. Soprano: What?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Ferrying cement in a wheel barrow
A.J. Soprano: So it's outdoors?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Yeah
A.J. Soprano: But it's winter time
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You got a lot of those hooded sweatshirts like those moulinyans wear you watch on MTV you can double up
A.J. Soprano: Come on this is bullshit
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Tony puts his hand on AJ's shoulder and pulls face closer to his face] Every penny you make you keep, we won't charge you any rent and believe me the pay's good it's a union job, I just want to see you do good your my son and I love you
A.J. Soprano: I'm going to have to leave your friend in a lurch when I go back to school
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: That's ok he deals with that all the time
A.J. Soprano: I just assume to keep searching online
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I'm sure you would, but if you're not at that site tomorrow morning,
[AJ nods dismissively]
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I'm going to take away your car and then I'm going to take away your clothes I'm going to take away your room and then I'm going to take away your mother's cooking and pretty soon you'll be out in the fucking street,
A.J. Soprano: [Tony uses a football helmet and breaks the wind shield on AJ's SUV] What the hell are you doing?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: It might get a little drafty driving down there tomorrow but I will have this fucking thing towed out of here and grounded up, look at it, you don't take care of it
[Tony puts his hand back on AJ's shoulder]
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Don't put me to the test

- You call or go anywhere near him or his family...
- And they'll be scraping your nipples off these leather seats.
- And here's the point to remember.
- My face is the last one you'll see.
- Not Tony's.
- We understand each other?
- It won't be cinematic.

Carmela: [after seeing a news report showing AJ cursing at reporters, rushes into his room to confront him] I swear I'm going to fucking kill you
A.J. Soprano: [after Carmella pulls his blanket off him] what the fuck?
Carmela: You made a fool of yourself and our family on national fuckin television
Carmela: I didn't even say that shit. They totally misquoted me
Carmela: Of course they did. That's what they do. Which is why I and everybody else told you don't talk to the press
A.J. Soprano: Yeah well, your the one who looks like an asshole: dragging me around like I was five years old
Carmela: [Calling him the religious idiom] Your a "cross to bear", to me, to your father to everybody
A.J. Soprano: [Before storming out, grabbing his shoes and clothes] fuck this! Fuck it all!

- How are things on bloomfield?
- The Cuban was at the casino.
- Big John's okay with a 60-40 split because we own the building.
- What the hell?
- What?
- The fuck? Is that pat parisi?
- Oh, shit!
- What should we do?

Carmela: He's a good man. He's a good father.
Dr. Krakower: You tell me he's a depressed criminal, prone to anger, serially unfaithful. Is that your definition of a good man?... You must trust your initial impulse and consider leaving him. You'll never be able to feel good about yourself. You'll never be able to quell the feelings of guilt and shame that you talked about, so long as you're his accomplice.
Carmela: You're wrong about the accomplice part, though.
Dr. Krakower: You sure?
Carmela: All I did was make sure he's got clean clothes in his closet and dinner on his table.
Dr. Krakower: So "enable" would be a more accurate job description for what you do than "accomplice". My apologies... Take only the children - what's left of them - and go.
Carmela: My priest said I should work with him, help him to become a better man.
Dr. Krakower: How's that going?

- That was a.J.
- He's sleeping over.
- I see.
- At a friend's house.
- Oh.
- The pucillos. I don't know if you know them.

- Oh, my eye.
- There's too much chlorine.
- I swallowed some water.
- You girls see me?
- Yeah, you were cheating.
- I'm fucking starving.
- Hey, guys! We got Mr. Goodwin's office open. Check it out.
- Let's go for it.

- It will, mom.
- But he was always so happy.
- He was our happy little boy.
- I mean, god.
- Come here, baby.
- There you go. White walls.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Carlo was furious: these guys waited by the Hackensack River all fuckin night
Johnny: Fuckin Vespas never got in my hands
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: This is Port Newark, where the fuck was your longshoremen?
Johnny: Tightened security at the ports: Al-Qaeda
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after Johnny gets into his Maserati] Carlo was told it was a go. If it didn't happen, how come nobody called?
Johnny: [before driving off] Lot of things didn't happen that seemed like it they happened. Your cousin didn't whack Joey: the Vespas never got in my hands

- Dad, we're eating!
- Hold it, ma. Anthony?
- What does a gentleman do?
- In his own house?
- A young lady's invited Anthony to his first formal.
- Well, then?

- The sleep of death.
- He's talking about his own death...
- Which has yet to come, but will come.
- That's fucked up.
- Gotta go.
- I thought black was death.
- White too.
- I'm coming, I'm coming.

- Good bialy.
- Any time, boss.

- With gate, wall, big old Cadillacs.
- Isn't that stupid?
- Our place in Tahoe looks exactly like Michael's in ii.
- Wow. Really?
- No. We don't have a place in Tahoe.
- We have a boat though.
- I'm like a gangster dude's girlfriend.

- Yeah?
- What?

- Does Christopher know?
- You kidding me? He'd kill him.
- Not really, I mean...
- You know, he'd be angry.
- I'm supposed to meet my mom.
- Go ahead.
- Thank you.

- You fucking believe it?
- We now run the executive game.
- Sil, remember when we used to look through that crack in the door...
- When my old man and junior had it?
- Yeah, I remember.
- Junior would chase us down the street.
- Executive game.

Christopher: [after they watch a rough cut of Christopher's horror film Cleaver, referring to their distain when Kingsley turning down the leading role] Fuck Ben Kingsley, Danny Baldwin took him to fuckin acting school
Carmine: [pats him on his forearm] Very well directed Morgan
Larry: [to Carmine] I think there's potentially more money in this than the porn we've done?
Carlo: [to everybody] So, what'd we think, do we need the extra scene or not?
Christopher: I like it the way it is
Carlo: I don't know Chrissy, these audiences today love blood
Carmine: I'm tending to agree with Carlo, I think one more sexy kill?
Morgan: [to everybody] When Michael follows the guy to the strip club, what if he chopped up one of the women?
Carmine: Who was fate would have it, was at one time Sally Boy's mistress?
Christopher: Two extra shoot days at a minimum
Larry: Yeah, if it buys us a bullshit theatrical release
Christopher: I have to get more money from Tony, I want this fuckin' thing out there

- Karen's ziti.
- It's the last one she made.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: How are things?
Tony: Good. I had a real good week. Friend of mine's in the hospital. That's never pleasant, but... Otherwise I'm having a good week.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: What's he in for?
Tony: First they thought it was an ulcer. You know, then this and that.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You worried about him?
Tony: Jackie? Jackie's so fucking mean, he'll scare that cancer away.

Vito: Sometimes you tell a lie so long... you don't know when to stop. You don't know when it's safe.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Meeting in an Office Max] where's Carmine at?
Johnny: [Referring to the terms of the proposal] No change what so ever
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: where you at?
Johnny: I think a movement from below is not palpable for the other bosses. It's what they do most. A movement from outside is more forgivable and more understandable: given the facts here. I mean you've been reasonable
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: If I do it, what'd you do for me?
Johnny: I take a "say it so" and make it better with the other families as regards to you. It's smart to have reservations but there's differences between this and Castellano. Yes you still got four other families that could raise a stink but Andy's my brother in law. I have their ear
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I'm going to pass
Johnny: The fuck you talking about?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I'm taking all the risk
Johnny: The fuck you were talking about last time? What would it take?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Fuck even one percentage point. All claims to my HUD business are irrigated
Johnny: Alright
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Before hugging] all future construction projects: sixty forty in my favor

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Take me to my uncle's doctor
Christopher: Furio called me, his going to the fuckin track today?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: So, what about it?
Christopher: I don't know, I'm driving you again all of a sudden
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: So what? I gotta explain why I want you with me this week?
Christopher: [sarcastically] God, forbid you explain
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: That's right and now you're gonna get fresh about it
Christopher: I'm just saying... I mean I'm glad to do it
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [sarcastically] I'm glad your glad. You know, your father was like a mentor me
Christopher: Right
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [referring to Christopher's father was reliable and honorable] Stand up? You ask anybody, your old man was a legend. He single-handedly hunted down that New England crew, brought the war home to them up there

Christopher: [Sarcastically to Adriana] thanks by the way for drinking wine in front of me
Christopher: [Answering his cell phone] Hello?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Referring to the hit on Carmine Lupertazzi] Call it off, the old guy
Christopher: Yeah?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Something don't make sense here
Christopher: You think it's a setup?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Not necessarily but our "friend" up there is very anxious to "pass the ball" to the prick. But nobody could ever know this was considered
Christopher: I'll offer my guys half of what they would've got: that should do it
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I just want you to make sure I told you that

- Something's off with the seat.
- What is it, Phil?
- Feels off kilter.
- Try it, Joey.

Christopher: [while Christopher pounds on his door] I know you're in there. You're casting a shadow over the peep hole
J.T. Dolan: [after letting him in, casually] hey
Christopher: What're you "ducking" me?
J.T. Dolan: No, I thought you this girl. She's a pain in the ass
Christopher: What the fuck? Where you been?
J.T. Dolan: Working, I told you I got those TV pitch meetings. I was going to call you
Christopher: Yeah so why didn't you?
J.T. Dolan: [Referring to Atlantic City] alright you want the truth? I was away. I went to AC
Christopher: Where's my money?
J.T. Dolan: I don't have it yet
Christopher: But you went to AC?
J.T. Dolan: I have a meeting next week with René Bulsay. Dick Wolf's right hand guy. He likes my stuff, he told my agent. I'm going to be on staff
Christopher: I got out of that business because people fuck you over. Jon Favreau fagot cock sucker tried to steal my ideas
J.T. Dolan: Bro listen, I swear on everything holy I'll have your money next week
Christopher: [while leaving JT's apartment] that wasn't the deal. I'll be back tomorrow, don't make me a jerk off

- Half up front.
- So...
- We'll call you then?
- Pop, father's here.
- Would you like some cake?
- Actually, we got a long ride back.

- Are you sure he's ready?
- What does she give a shit?
- She's trying to save a buck.
- Hold on a minute.
- Guy next door... Mr. Schwinn.
- Had surgery this morning, cancer.
- You know anything about it?
- I heard they removed his larynx.

- You gotta put your son in hiding because of your fucking philandering?
- Afraid he'll get caught in the crossfire?
- Your own son?
- Christopher's upset.
- He could come over.
- He could say some things that a kid shouldn't hear.
- Just please leave.
- I don't even wanna look at you.

- Calm down, take it easy.
- He let me stand there like...
- A servant. Scraping. Bowing.
- Didn't even ask me to sit down.
- It's part of the game.
- He's going down.
- Are you fucking stupid?
- I don't give a fuck any more.
- I've given my life to this thing.
- And this is the thanks I get?

Silvio: [losing at poker as Matt Bevilaqua tries to sweep up the crumbs under his chair] What the fuck are YOU doing?
Tony: Sil, take it easy.
Silvio: I'm losing my balls over heeeere! This fuckin' moron's playing Hazel? Get the fuck outta here!
Matt: I was just trying to sweep the cheese away from...
Silvio: Why? Why NOW? Leave it there!
Matt: I don't know, I was just...
Silvio: What?
[to Tony]
Silvio: Where do you get these fuckin' idiots, huh? Where do you get 'em? He's sweeping the cheese, I'm trying ta...
[to Matt, shouting]
Silvio: Leave the fuckin' cheese there! All right? I love fuckin' cheese at my feet! I stick motherfuckin' provolone in my socks at night, so they smell like your sister's crotch in the morning! All right? So leave the fuckin' cocksuckin' cheese WHERE IT IS!
[Scoops the rest of the food from his plate onto the floor]
Silvio: Here, here, here! Go ahead. Have a good time!
[Sits back down to make a bet]
Silvio: 800.
Dr. Ira Freid: Call.
Silvio: [to Dr. Fried] And why don't you go fix a fuckin' dick or whatever the fuck it is you do.

- Hey.
- What are you doing home?
- Nothing.
- I thought it was aj, home from school.
- Yeah.

Tony: [to Janice after she and Bobby arrived late] let me ask you something: is your time more valuable than mine?
Junior: Where's the baby?
Bobby: Sorry Tone, the car seat, the other stuff, packing it in there takes forever, you probably remember that?
Tony: No I don't. I didn't do that crap
Janice: How you feeling uncle Jun?
Tony: His late enough, come on

Likewise weekly I'll collect for the skip, keep it for him until his back on his feet, take out a portion for Carmella around the house and that shit there. Anybody got any questions? For now not personal questions relating to yourself but the family. Yeah Vito

Silvio: What'd I just say? Not about yourself

Meadow: What're you talking about?
Finn: These people. Your dad's friends
Meadow: I never saw one bit of violence growing up
Finn: What about your dad's road rage? And didn't you tell me you had a boyfriend shot to death or something?
Meadow: First of all, he was killed by drug dealers. African Americans if it makes you feel any better. You know, you talk about these guys like it's an anthropology class, the truth is they bring certain modes of conflict resolution all the way back from the old country

- Sil, break it down for them.
- What two businesses have been...
- Recession-proof since time immemorial?
- Certain aspects of show business and our thing.

Christopher: [while shaving] You better!

Gabriella: [after entering his office] I'm so upset, I don't know what to say
Father: why? What's wrong?
Gabriella: what's wrong? Carmela is one of your biggest supporters and friends, how dare you let her suffer humiliation and embarrassment at the hands of an "outsider"?
Father: I don't know what you mean
Gabriella: oh, you know "exactly" what I mean. Unfortunately, because of her husband's high profile in the "waste" industry, Carmela's the one who bears the brunt of these insults but there are many of us that were equally offended
Father: I am sorry, this is an open forum, you did hear me bring up that new study?

[Father Jose calmly extorts Paulie over the usage of a statue's solid gold hat]

Father: It would demonstrate to me that you take this feast as seriously as the people who began it.
Paulie: Okay Father. Nice meeting you.

Paulie: Fuck the hat!

Christopher: [while lying in a hospital bed and telling Tony and Paulie what he saw during his near-death experience] Mikey Palmice and Brendan Filone were there too: they were friends
Paulie: Those two guys hated each other
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Christopher, you gotta relax, ok? You just need some rest
Christopher: Their friends now, they were playing dice with two Roman soldiers and a bunch of the Irish guys
Paulie: It doesn't make sense
Christopher: and the Irish, they were winning every roll and then Mikey gave me a message for both of you:
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: A message?
Christopher: Yeah, he said tell Tony and Paulie three o'clock
Paulie: [confused] Three o'clock?
Christopher: [while pressing the button for the morphine dispenser] This fuckin morphine drip, I don't think it's working, I don't feel a fuckin thing
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You gotta be careful with that
Paulie: That was all he said?
Christopher: Who?
Paulie: Mikey, three o'clock?
Christopher: Yeah
Paulie: What was he wearing?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to Paulie, referring to Christopher] Come on let's go, he needs his rest
Christopher: He had on a gangster suit: pinstripe, old fashion style
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to Christopher, eventually kissing him on the forehead] That was a dream... forget about it, ok? We're gonna take you home soon

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [jokingly, greeting a intoxicated Hunter dancing in the front lawn of his mom's house] Hey Janet Jackson
Hunter: hi. Mr. Soprano
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: where's Meadow?
Hunter: [referring to Meadow's grandmother's home] I give up, in the house?

Tony: [while walking down the stairs to greet Tony] look whose here, the guinea welcome wagon
Tony: [Visiting Johnny in his new house in New Jersey, jokingly] this is for you, you piece of shit. Carmella's bringing something nice for the house warming for Ginny
Johnny: [Showing Tony around his home] they call this the great room. I don't know what's so "great" about it. It's mediocre if you ask me. We got a fuckin living room right over there
Tony: I didn't know you were moving to New Jersey
Johnny: Ginny wanted to be close to her sisters and schools out here
Tony: We were sitting with Carmine all night long, you never once mentioned you bought a place in Jersey
Johnny: It's not Carmine's favorite subject me living in Jersey, it's what? Half an hour over the bridge?
Tony: Well, why didn't you tell me you were moving here?
Johnny: Why?
Tony: I've got to find out second hand?
Johnny: What'd you care? Are you working in the toll booth now? Besides I already got the condo in Point Pleasant
Tony: You should have fuckin told me
Johnny: I'm telling you now, this is strictly a place to live. I've got no intention to "stick my beak in." I mean there's our "family" then there's the Soprano "thing."

- I just got it back from the martinizing.
- They do a nice job over there.
- Say hi to dad for me. I put Allegra's graduation picture in a frame for him.
- Good.
- Love you.
- I love you too.
- Careful driving.

- No more bets.
- Twenty.
- Holy fucking shit.
- Here.
- Much appreciated.

- I just talked to him in person.
- He ain't seeing nobody.
- What's going on, butch?
- I just brokered this thing.
- He came here to make a peace offering.
- A semi-trailer of drills, makitas.
- We don't want your fucking drills.
- Fuck it. Let's go.

- Well, we don't do traditional therapy, perse.
- Kids in crisis mostly need an environment of calm...
- No stresses.
- Do you want this?
- Or I can pop it in the mail.
- Just one more week of this.
- Twenty-two hundred a fucking day.

- You're kidding.
- I mean...
- Jesus Christ.
- Svetlana just called.
- She said that after dinner your mother went upstairs.
- When Svetlana came up, your mother was under the covers.
- Svetlana thought she was asleep.

- Tell me to crap on the queen Mary...
- An hour later, they're hosing it down. I owe you everything.
- How do I know what nodal involvement is?
- Didn't you listen? A whole issue of us. News on seniors and health.
- "Take somebody to the doctor's," it said. Somebody to ask questions.
- You ask one dumb fucking question about my diet.

- at the time of bodily death, is the only reliable guide through the land of the dead.
- Who's gonna live here?
- A family. I'll have it finished by October.
- I'm worried, Ade.
- Everybody's worried.
- No. I am worried all the time.

- The thing with Adriana?
- I told you it never fucking happened.
- Well, apparently, your nephew feels othennise.
- Ro pointed it out to me. If she saw it, that means other people did.
- It's a movie. It's fictional.
- It's a revenge fantasy, Tony...
- Which ends with the boss's head split open by a meat cleaver.

- I talked to my guy, we're calling it off.
- I'm already out here though.
- Like, right there.
- We'll work something out, then.
- Don't worry about it.
- I want half.
- All right, whatever.
- Getting out?
- No.

- Let's give it up for no soap radio.
- Was that a steamroller of a set?
- Pick up one of their new cds for sale, up at the front.
- Come on, Giovanni.
- Jesus Christ, he's pissing his pants.

- Sorry. Right.
- Philly, yeah.
- Thought you were your brother.
- I just bought a sable off him.
- I'm sorry I had to do that.
- Fuck this.
- They're never coming.

A.J. Soprano: [In the hospital] what's up?
Christopher: You were at South Mountain Arena yesterday trying to buy a gun from that asshole that works in the snack stand?
A.J. Soprano: Who told you that?
Christopher: We know how you feel but you can't do this.
A.J. Soprano: I can't believe you know this, who told you this?
Bobby: If my father was laying in there shot I'd be thinking the same thing.
Christopher: But you can't go this.
A.J. Soprano: Yeah, well why the fuck not?
Bobby: Listen to me, I'm your uncle Junior's in federal lock up, no one's getting to him in there.
A.J. Soprano: It's difficult but not impossible.
Christopher: Trust me your dad does not want you to get involved
Bobby: You've got to channel that rage elsewhere, like golden gloves
Christopher: Dumb bells or some shit, fuck your girlfriend more

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: 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: 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: 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: 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: And?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: and what?Meet his price, and that's it, I don't want to nothing else
John: Oh, you don't?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I paid enough, John, I paid a lot.
John: 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: 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: 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: It's good, seeing you again
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I'm still looking forward to working with you, John.

- Over the past few months, you've heard from FBI agents...
- Who have documented clandestine meetings at his doctors' offices.
- Tales of bid-rigging, sweetheart deals...
- Secret payoffs and even murder.
- No, corrado soprano is not some harmless old man...
- But a killer who orders up murder like you and I order up coffee.

- You know, in some ways, the whole prison thing is not that different from bein' an immigrant.
- Word to the wise, remember Pearl harbor.
- We really were the last people in there.
- At least they were subtle about it.
- Was it stacking of chairs or the running the vacuum?

Junior: A mole on her ass? What's the joke? I still don't get it
Tony: It's not a joke per se, it's... you had to be there
Junior: A real lack of standards your generation. In my day John would be right, a man would never be expected to stand for a remark like that
Tony: The fucked up thing is I don't even like Ralph, if he was drowning I'd throw him a cinder block, but not protect one of my own captains? Besides its too late now anyway, Carmine gave me the nod
Junior: [While watching Who Wants to Be a Millionaire] On Johnny? That was a slippery fuck huh? Him and those big fish lips of his? Look at this: The fifth question and the poor prick used all of his life lines
Tony: John goes, Carmine's going to put himself in a position of maximum deniability
Junior: So, you make it easy for everybody, take it out of the neighborhood
Tony: Like an accident?
Junior: [Listing the causes that can kill John] accident, stick up, he can choke on a chicken wing. The important thing: Johnny disappears
Tony: Johnny out, Carmine's going to put his son in there, fuckin brain-less the second, who knows? Maybe there's an upside of Johnny going. He goes to Boston a lot to visit his father. It could happen up there
Junior: You want my advice? You'll call Lou DiMaggio, the Atwell Avenue Boys.
Tony: What? Those sick old fucks in Rhode Island?
Junior: They may be old my little nephew but those dogs can still hunt
Tony: My old man used to talk about them, something to do with drugs
Junior: Heroin back in the fifties it was raining cash with that shit. DiMaggio and his crew never saw a dime. A guy they worked for Lenny Caputo, he didn't believe in it. For fifteen years everyone and their mother was getting rich dealing H. Everyone except these guys. Their eking a living doing hits, running swag, anyway low and behold, one day Lenny get pinched for heroin trafficking. Turns out, the cock sucker was making a fortune working with the mulligan and not only that his been selling out his own guys to the Feds so he can keep his ass out on the street. DiMaggio and another guy on his crew did eight years on a murder rap
Tony: So much for loyalty huh?
Junior: You go to Rhode Island whatever you do, don't mention drugs: coke, heroin not even Tylenol
Tony: So, what happened to this Lenny prick?
Junior: [Smiles] Lou 'DiMaggio, his real name's Galina. They started calling him Lou 'DiMaggio, after the cops found Lenny and his wife's with their heads bashed in by a baseball bat. Anyway that was Lou when he still had his health

- What's the matter with you?
- It's this fucking swell.
- I'm sick.
- You don't see me all fucked up.
- Don't yell at me!
- I'll fucking yell at you!
- We got any good Tequila?

Tony: It's Tuesday three o'clock so we've got to talk about something ok? Spin the wheel", here's something that's been bothering me I gave my daughter a car
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Really?
Tony: Yeah a used car, one of those SUV's, a 92 pathfinder. The thing is that it belonged to a friend of hers from school and it came into my possession incurred of a debt by the kid's father and this is the way he elected to make payment
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You gave your daughter her friend's car?
Tony: It was a nice, safe, car to which I had the pink slip
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: What's bothering you?
Tony: I must've known that she'd known it was her friend Eric's car and how I got it and she'd freak out
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Then why did you give it to her?
Tony: I don't know, I mean for all these years I've been shielding her and protecting her from certain "truths" so now I want to rub her nose in it.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Any thoughts on that?
Tony: This kid's father, his fuckin degenerate gambler but his also a respected business man in the community and everything that goes along with that
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: One of your "Happy "wanders"
Tony: How do you remember this shit?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [Smiles, remains silent]
Tony: So it becomes my fault he lost his kid's car? I've got to look out for him because his a sick bastard? My friend Artie Bucco got a restaurant right? Now believe me no one's telling him to refuse a plate a fettuccine to a guy that's eating himself to death
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Maybe that's what you were saying to your daughter
Tony: What?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: By giving her the SUV, wanting her to confront some of these "moral ambiguities"
Tony: [Implying that he doesn't understand her terminology] English
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Meadow's going to be going away to college next year
Tony: Yeah that's why she needs the car
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: "Leaving the nest"
Tony: Not those fuckin ducks again
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Maybe you were preparing her for the reality of teaching her to "fly"?
Tony: You know your people are something, I gave my little girl a car to rub her face in shit and you're telling me I did something noble?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: We're getting to something here
Tony: [Realizing she's right] time's up
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Look, we still have time and we're doing good work, what? You feel you're cured?
Tony: Alright, I'll sit here but I got nothin else to say

- Come on, let's go.
- Silvio manfred Dante?
- At a funeral?
- Detective filemon Francis.
- You're under arrest for violating new
- Jersey penal code, promoting gambling.
- Every fucking super bowl, the da. Grabs a few headlines.
- Go ahead. Last year I made bail so fast my soup was still warm.
- All right, come on. Keep moving.

- Are you telling me that since
- I'm the new boss, I should tax hesh?
- Boy, Anthony must've really gotten under your collar. Admit it.
- You want to crack his cog/ioni for putting you in here.
- What are you talking about?
- Yeah.
- And I'm playing shortstop for the mets.
- All right, watch the balls!

- Want a pastry?
- I need to watch my weight.
- I need to snag another husband.
- You're the only one who realized that's a joke.
- You had to grow up in our family.
- That dig you made about me giving guys head under the boardwalk?
- He took it so seriously, Bobby.

Christopher: [after she spent a long time in the bathroom getting ready] the fuck you doing in there? We're going to miss the previews
Christopher: [while she remains silent] what? Tell me your earring went into the fuckin drain again
Kelli: [Nervously] I'm pregnant. I know it's my fault. I know I shouldn't have let you take off the rubber. I thought we were ok. I was due for my period. My cycle's like clockwork...
Christopher: [Interrupts her by putting his hand up] stop
Kelli: I'll call the clinic tomorrow...
Christopher: [Interrupts her again, walks up to her and holds her cheek] stop talking, let's get married
Kelli: [Surprised] What?
Christopher: Drive to AC and make a day out of it
Kelli: Are you serious?
Kelli: [after seeing him teary eyed] Christopher I love you
Christopher: [Touching her abdomen] my baby. My ex, she couldn't have kids and I wanted them so bad
Kelli: The one that ran out on you?
Christopher: I bet she's having some other asshole's baby, that fuckin tramp

- Where are you going? Can I come?
- Your mom wants you to get the screens down to the basement.
- No, I want to go with you guys.
- He said no.
- Janice...
- You both won't be going, you talk to your brother like that.

Annalisa: You don't want to fuck me?
Tony: Yeah, I do. But I don't shit where I eat.
Annalisa: Que cosa?
Tony: [in broken Italian] Non fare la merdo dove... It's bad business. We're in business.

- I'll rip your fucking heart out!
- Look. Anthony's going in.
- All right, a.J.!
- Okay, defense, 41 stack.
- A.j.! Stick them, baby!
- Stick them! Do it!
- Fumble!
- Fumble!
- Up! Up! Everybody up! Wait, get up.

- You told me there were
- 1500 cases of centrums on that truck.
- When your nephew delivered it, there were cartons ripped open, pills all over the floor.
- Anybody got shorted, it was yours truly, but you know what...
- All right, all right, all right, put it back in your pocket.
- But I gotta get some relief on this other situation.

- Didn't you hear it? Twig snapping.
- You said yourself I hit him in the head. Fucking Rasputin, this guy.
- See?
- Come on, he's running.

- Congratulations, carm.
- It's not an easy thing to do these days.
- I had a lot of support.
- Brian and Janine must be so happy.
- I hope so.
- Just the two? It's big, right?
- It's a mansion.
- Pass the salad.
- They have a baby on the way.

- Stopped by to pick up a few things.
- Fine.
- The geeks are really making some progress now.
- Turn that off and come here.
- I got something to say to your mother,
- I might as well tell you.
- It's almost over.
- Now.

- What?
- I don't know.
- You getting called like this and going off all happy. I worry, that's all.
- You've seen too many movies.

- You don't want me to come back anymore.
- It's quite the opposite.
- This is all a by-product of progress.
- Has someone been following me?
- Okay, forget it.
- I'll see you next week.

- And I thought maybe you could help me out.
- Got a meeting in the city later.
- Rahimah, this is my dad.
- How you doing?
- Hello.
- Want a doughnut?
- No, thanks.
- Well, I'll see you later, Meadow?
- Okay, rahimah.

- You'll go to every session, and you'll keep your mouth shut.
- Now, if you need anything, anything at all...
- Patsy's gonna be half a mile away from you in a motel.
- Do you understand what I'm saying to you? Huh?
- Do you understand?
- Tony, I'm sorry.
- How did I fucking get to this?

- I've been thinking about things, me living out there.
- And I've decided it's probably not a good idea.

Christopher: Hey Poppin' Fresh, I'm in no fucking mood today.

Meadow: What stuff?
Carmela: This gay nonsense their teaching. I am sorry but Billy Budd is not a homosexual book
Meadow: Actually, it is mother
Carmela: I saw the movie Meadow with Terence Stamp
Colin: Terence Stamp was in the Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
Carmela: I don't know about that but Billy Budd is a story about an innocent sailor being picked on by an evil boss
Meadow: Who's picking on him out of self loathing caused by homosexual feelings in the military context
Carmela: Oh, please
A.J. Soprano: OK
Alessandra: Actually Mrs. Soprano, there's a passage in the book where Melville compares Billy to a statue of Adam before the fall
A.J. Soprano: Really?
Tony: I thought you read it?

Bobby: I'll tell ya what a gold mine is - those Harry Potter books. That's cause it gives the other kids, the 98-pound weaklings, some hope.
Ralph: Oh. Speaking of 98 pounds, I hear Ginny Sack's gettin' a 95-pound mole taken off her ass.
[all laugh]
Tony: Hey! Some guy's wife! Come on!

- What do you do, Adriana?
- Well, right now
- I'm in the food service industry.
Adriana: Christopher.
- You, get up.
- Who? Me?
- What does he want?
- Hey, bridge-and-tunnel boy, chill out.

- They got him for possession.
- Shit.
- What do you care?
- He mentioned that job over at rutgers.
- A coffeehouse.
- Coffeehouse, shit. We were gonna
- Jack a benefit concert there tonight.
- Jewel and amnesty international.
- You know the details?
- Can you make it work without dino?
- It was my fucking idea.

- Let's go. Let's go.
- Yeah, that's them there.
- Fuck!
- What the fuck?
- Let's get the hell out of here.

- Come in the house.
- I got your word, I walk in...
- I'm walking back out.
- I don't see you for all this time.
- No word. Nothing.
- This is how you come back?
- Do I got your word?

Carmela: [Referring to Meadow's punishment, while lying in bed] There has to be consequences. What kind of parents would we be if we let her get away with this?
Tony: Typical?
Carmela: Plenty of parents still "crack the whip"
Tony: Yeah, that's what they tell you
Carmela: I cannot wait until she goes off the college
Tony: Then you can be fucked up with the "empty nest" syndrome and go on Wellbutrin like your sister?
Carmela: As a parent today, you are "over a barrel" no matter what you do: you take away the car, you become her chauffeur. You ground her, you gotta stay home weekends and be prison guards
Tony: And if you throw her out, the Social Services will bring her back, and we'd be in front of the judge: she's not eighteen yet
Carmela: That's your solution? To throw your daughter out?
Tony: All I'm saying is with the laws today, you can't even restrain your kid physically because she can sue you for child abuse
Carmela: There has to be consequences
Tony: And there will be, I hear you ok? Let's not "overplay" our "hand" because if she finds out we're powerless, we're fucked

- Here, I just ironed it.
- Oh.
- Thanks.
- Ooh, the canali. Very nice.
- Where are you going?
- I've got a... real estate thing.
- Ahem...
- My handsome man.

- And a .45 while hunting for easter eggs?
- In the waste management business, everybody assumes you're mobbed up.
- It's a stereotype, and it's offensive.
- You're the last person I want to perpetuate it.
- Fine.
- There is no mafia.

Tony: Your amigos with the baggy pants, I hope you kept them away from the silver
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: Oh, Jesus, their musicians aright? they saw the ad for the drums
Tony: You're selling your drums?
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: I need cash, I don't play them anymore
Carmela: Those drums were a gift from your father
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: Yeah, I don't wanna sell them, if you guys hadn't made me get such a crappy job, I wouldn't have to
Carmela: oh, so this is our fault?
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: I'm wasting my time at Blockbuster
Tony: Then get off your ass and get another job
Carmela: What about community college? You said were gonna go back to school
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: [irritated, intentionally speaking slowly to belittle them] Ok, for the hundredth time, I can't register until second semester! I mean, Jesus Christ, I do what you guys want, don't I deserve some kind of life?

- UN-fucking-believable.
- Buffalo! Fucking-a! [Cheers]
- Listen to this fucking guy.
- Probably won $35 down there.
- Final score, buffalo 28, tampa bay 24.
- Skip, another beer?
- No. No, no, I'm gonna go take a snooze.

- Motherfucker!
- What are you doing?
- What if we need the bullets?
- That's no deer hunter.
- Paulie! Christopher!

- Because I got this image of Daniel in the lion's den.
- He says you found his body.
- Oh, my god.
- He's sorry.
- He knows how traumatic that was.
- He couldn't take the pain anymore.
- Gregory, I'm sorry.
- Could you repeat that?

- Ho, get the skip a chair.
- I don't want a chair. I'm fine.
- Ton', how you doing?
- What are you weighing these days?
- Don't ask. 265.
- Let's go.

- Hadn't happened a week or so after you found out about Gloria?
- I'll tell you one thing.
- One suicide is bad enough, but two?
- They can both go fuck themselves.
- I made a donation to the suicide hot line in her name, and...
- That's it.

Tony: [Increasing Scatino's sporting goods store's debt by buying products, selling them, and not paying back the vendors] a lot of fuckin work to move some picnic coolers
Richie: Coolers are scissors, everybody wants one but have nobody has a fuckin idea how much they cost. You have a Nigerian sell these on the streets for two or three bucks a piece, who's not going to say "fuck it, give me one"
Tony: Davey, how we doing with the books of airline tickets?
David: You want to raise a red flag with the travel agency? A sporting goods store that charges airline tickets in bulk?
Tony: You say it's a promotional device" you know "customer of the year", "salesman on the month", that kind of thing, don't worry about it. You put it all on different lines of credit
David: Yeah but all of sudden I'm ordering all this weird shit. Picnic coolers, Ramosa water. When is one of these vendors realizes I'm never going to pay them and call the cops?
Richie: When your fuckin credit runs out "Diamond Jim", until then get on the fuckin horn and order unless your ready to pay the principle you owe us?

- What the fuck did I say?
- If you'd rather,
- I can invite them to her place.
- Janice, what are you doing?
- Very good.
- We can all take a break from eating for five minutes.
- Most of you will probably remember that this was her favorite song.
- It might help us get rolling.

- and she would have more of a don't-ask-don't-tell policy towards my work and my recreational life outside of the home.
- But you tell me there hasn't been much recreating since the shooting.
- No, and that's okay.

- How's you doing, Tony?
- Pick six today?
- No, just an orange juice and a racing form today.
- This wind, huh?
- Yeah.

- Did a hell of a job.
- Falcons! Falcons, heads up!
- Red, 42! 42!
- Push! Ally!
- Come on.
- Come on, al!

- Don't worry about those distractions, you keep your eye on the ball.
- I know what you're thinking.
- You have no idea.
- The cops aren't gonna help you because you can't give them anything!
- Don't be stupid!
- Even in the short term.
- Get the fuck out of town.
- You've been a good doctor to me.
- Thank you.

- Hang on, gab, call waiting.
- It may be Tony from Italy.
- Hello?
- I didn't sleep a wink last night, my god, isn't this awful?
- Did you tell franny altieri?
- Ooh no, she's gonna shit when she hears this.

- He built the sacrimoni house.
- He did decent workmanship.
- Ginny says he works for a price.
- So?
- Well, your sister loves that house.
- She said it reminded her of a "villa in Italy."
- What, is he coming here now?
- I picked up a couple of sandwiches from italianissimo.

Tony: [to Christopher and Eugene] Once you're into this family, there's no getting out.

- Well, no, it's just a test-drive for a couple of weeks.
- You know, my family gave me some sunglasses for Christmas so why don't you have these?
- I bet they'll look great on you, Chris.
- I don't know. You think?
- Sir Ben, can we get a shot?

Christopher: My friends have abandoned me. I've been totally fuckin' ostra-fied.

U.S. Attorney: You prefer Corrado or Junior?
Corrado: I prefer Mr. Soprano.
U.S. Attorney: Your tenure as boss was a short one. Actually, it was unusual in several ways. Let me put this to you as simply as I can. You can avoid sentencing on these charges if you will testify that in fact, you were not the boss of North Jersey, that in fact, your nephew Anthony Soprano was and is. That he de facto controlled your capos with the backing of two of the New York families communicating through their emissary, John Sacrimoni. We want Johnny Sack. But more than him, we want Mangano and Teresi.
Corrado: I want to fuck Angie Dickinson, let's see who gets lucky first.

Meadow: [Jokingly, after answering the phone while studying in her dorm] Taco Bell
A.J. Soprano: Hi
Meadow: Hey
A.J. Soprano: There's something I've got to tell you
Meadow: I heard
A.J. Soprano: How?
Meadow: Like mom's not totally going to tell me you got expelled?
A.J. Soprano: Not that
Meadow: I heard you "cracked" to the cop everything
A.J. Soprano: They had my DNA
Meadow: Moron, it takes like six weeks to get DNA tests
A.J. Soprano: Shit
Meadow: I've got to go
A.J. Soprano: No, I didn't tell you yet
Meadow: What?
A.J. Soprano: Jackie was doing a drug deal with some black dudes and they shot him, his like dead

Richard: [while they prepare dinner, jokingly, referring to Tony] Didn't you see my favorite patient today?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Tomorrow
Richard: How's that going?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [not wanting to talk about Tony] Let's not
Richard: [referring to stopping Tony's treatment then continuing his therapy sessions] I still wished to Christ you hadn't taken him back
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [referring to their divorce and reconciling] I took you back
Richard: You think the synergy escapes me? You start treating him, we start seeing each other again. No, seriously...
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [interrupts him] If you really wanna know, he had a real breakthrough last week
Richard: [amused] Breakthrough what? Somebody's jaw?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [sarcastically] Your right, I'm wasting my time: better I should boycott with the National Italian American Foundation and save the world from... oh what is it this week?
Richard: The very idea ABC would even think of producing that stereotypical goombah fest
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: We're the advertisement for the American experiment. We did great
Richard: I'm so fed up with people assuming I'm a thug because my name ends in a vowel: undershirts, yelling, Hollywood tries to give these sociopaths a tragic grandeur of Al Pacino
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Condescend to me, it gets me so hot
Richard: Tell me a little more about this breakthrough then. You yourself said this guy's an alexithymic: he said Nothing's gonna get through, not if it threatens that straw house his built inside his head to shelter his base criminality. It really concerns me you don't see this, I mean pink slip this guy: his dangerous
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I'm gonna pink slip you if you don't get that chicken in the oven

- You got some set of balls, you know that? Absolutely not.
- I show you my hand, and you slap it away.
- What's the matter with you?
- Why can't we talk like adults anymore, huh?
- Next time you come in, you come heavy or not at all.
- You don't mean that.

Meadow: [after Tony interrupts Eric and Meadow practicing music] do you mind? God
Tony: [Angrily] I'm trying to get some sleep, I've been working all night
Tony: How you doing Eric?
Eric: Pretty good
Tony: [Referring to his guitar skills] sounds good
Eric: Thanks
Meadow: Are you awake now?
Tony: Yeah
Meadow: Good, close the door
Tony: [Irritated by her attitude] hey! Where's your mother?
Meadow: The store. Oh, aunt Barb called, uncle Tom's father died
Tony: Whoa, whoa, whoa, Tom Sr.? When?
Meadow: I don't know
Tony: What the hell happened?
Meadow: I don't know
Tony: The guy's here almost every Christmas eve, you don't ask? Somebody says "Joe blow" died, nobody asks "how" or "what happened?"
Tony: [while closing her door referring to her lack of respect] Jesus

Tony: [Beating and strangling Ralph over Pie-O-My's death] She was a beautiful innocent creature, what'd she ever do to you? You fuckin' killed her! You killed her, you fuckin' killed her!

Tony: [referring to his father's former mistress] So I talked to her for like an hour, turns out her and my old man had a "thing", right up until he died. He got from her what he couldn't get at home, support, love, a smile when you walk through the fuckin door
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Do you think that justifies his infidelity?
Tony: She drove him into that woman's arms, my mother, to all his women. I'll tell you one thing: all the years he was rotten in that grave, I can't remember once my mother visiting him but this lady Fran...
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [interrupts him] It's possible your mother found it very painful?
Tony: [sarcastically] Oh, poor her

- Please don't hurt him!
- The kid only got firecrackers on him.
- I want to work with you guys!
- Who told you this was the way to go about it?
- Don't worry.
- This is Naples university.

- Don't get in bed with him again.
- You dislodged his drains.
- That was my daughter.
- And I can't help but think that physical affection means something.

- Better be careful. If I can do it, so can your bride-to-be.
- What is this? Some new rule about who I fuck? You want more shoes?
- No. They don't fit her. I don't know why I thought she was a size 10.
- I don't know either.
- I'm here to tell you one thing.
- You go whining to the big man again about shit between us...
- We'll have a problem, my friend.

- I got like a 450 on my math sat.
- Fuck that shit, bro.
- I could hook you up in like 10 minutes.
- Can I dance for you, baby?
- I guess.
- Yeah, dude. Yeah.
- Yeah.

Richie: [to Paulie and Silvio when they arrive to see him] Sit down for Christ's sake
Paulie: I wanna talk to you about Beansie Gaeta
Silvio: You know he may never walk again
Paulie: [to Silvio] Never say never
Richie: [to both of them] No, say never. He's a shopping cart from here on out
Paulie: He gets home from rehab soon, poor motherfucker: you should help him out
Richie: [confused] Help him out?
Paulie: You should build him a ramp on his house: for the wheelchair
Silvio: You can make the place Whatchamacallit... handicapped assessable?
Richie: Maybe when I'm over there, I can fuck his wife?
Silvio: Come on Richie, you're a fuckin captain now. So, you assert a little pressure, call that nephew of yours Vito and the other one. They're in the building trades, aren't they?
Richie: Wait, are you fuckin serious?
Paulie: Richie, it's a gesture. The man has a lot of friends
Richie: You're out of your fuckin minds
Silvio: Don't take that attitude Richie
Paulie: [sternly] Hey, your gonna build Beansie a ramp
Richie: I'll build a ramp up to your ass

Phil: There are no scraps in my scrapbook.

- It all checks out.
- Puerto Rico, the clinic.
- All that shit, from what I can tell.

Christopher: Good dinner baby
Adriana: Let's get married
Christopher: [Amused] Whoa, where'd this come from?
Adriana: I don't know, it's going to be two years we're engaged. Let's just go down to City Hall
Christopher: City Hall? What're we? Schnooks? You said you wanted a big wedding anyway
Adriana: I don't care about that shit. I just want you. It'll be cheaper anyway, we could buy a house. Plus, a wife can't testify against her husband
Christopher: Can't have a club, stay out all night getting high when you have a kid
Adriana: What if we didn't have kids?
Christopher: Fuck that, what's the point of being married?
Adriana: I mean what if we can't? If "I" can't? Would you still love me?
Christopher: Of course I'd still love you, why?
Adriana: There's something you should know: a long time ago, years ago, I had a medical procedure, it was before we met. My uterus got pierced
Christopher: Both of them?
Adriana: There's only one, that's ovaries
Christopher: So, what does that mean? You can't get pregnant?
Adriana: My doctor said it might be hard, a friend of mine gave me the name of a specialist in Manhattan
Christopher: [Suddenly furious, raising his voice] you knew you were damaged goods and never fuckin told me?
Adriana: How could you call me that?
Christopher: Jesus fuckin Christ, how could you lie to me like that?
Adriana: I tried to tell you once. I wanted to. I was afraid you wouldn't propose
Christopher: You don't get it Adriana. I don't have a son, the Moltisanti name ends: that's it
Adriana: We could adopt
Christopher: Yeah that's great, some kid with "chinky" eyes called "Moltisanti", he'd get his ass kicked everyday
Adriana: You said you'd still love me
Christopher: That doesn't mean I'd fuckin marry you

Christopher: What're you doing in bed? We got dinner with Tony and Carm
Adriana: I can't come, I'm sick
Christopher: What'd you mean?
Adriana: I don't know, I got chills, I think I'm getting the flu? I shouldn't go up there
Christopher: Come on, get dressed, couple of drinks, it'll kill the germs, you'll forget all about it
Adriana: You better go without me
Christopher: But you have to go, this is the "inner sanctum" here, I'm not just a relative anymore, you think Paulie and his comares get invited to dinner with them?
Adriana: I'm sorry, maybe I should just sleep?
Christopher: [disappointed] Nothing ever goes my way

- You're fired.
- Oh yeah? Oh, who's laughing now?
- What do you think? I can't press charges
- 'cause of my friendship with Tony?!
- Three months you worked here!
- You think that doesn't go on your permanent record?!
- We lead the world in computerized data collection!

- Janice! Janice! Janice!
- Janice? Janice!
[ In Russian ] Fucking whore.
- May she burn alive.

- The old Italians will tell you, you can't even put them around a baby.
- They suck the breath right out.
- Well, you're the only baby here, so we're ahead.
- You wanna wear his fucking pelt on your head?
- I said get rid of him.
- Leave him.
- He's a good guy.

Tony: [Surprised to see Richie answering the door at Tony's mother's house early in the morning] the fuck you doing here? Where's my sister?
Richie: Store, I'm making breakfast, want some eggs?
Tony: Do I want some eggs? Why don't you put your fuckin pants on?
Richie: Let's have some coffee
Tony: So what the fuck? The mattress in the shelter a little too lumpy?
Richie: [Referring to Janice] We're adults, and we got history together
Tony: Yeah: Israel and fuckin Palestine
Richie: People change. I was away a long time, I thought a lot about her
Tony: Ten years, you thought about Janice? There are men in the can better looking than my sister. I hope you're not thinking about moving in here
Richie: It's late, I slept over. We're taking it slow ok? Picking up where we left off
Tony: High school: grabbing blowjobs on my mother's couch
Richie: You crossed the line on me once, I held my tongue, she may be your sister, back the fuck off... all due respect
Tony: [Sternly] respect? What the fuck do you know about respect? I put you back in business you cocksucker

- We shall know forsooth.
- Liz has been to her house.

Carmela: [over the phone] hi, how are you?
Jeanie: listen, I spoke to my sister about the letter of recommendation for Meadow and she's sorry, she just can't do it... I'm sorry
Carmela: she can't? Why not?
Jeanie: well because she already wrote a letter for someone else: a wonderful Dominican from the housing projects, with a 5.2 average and a crack addict mother with Cerebral palsy
Carmela: so, what does that mean? She can't send two?
Jeanie: did you think about asking one of the priests at the church? A letter from Father Intintola would "probably" mean more I bet? Especially at Georgetown. I gotta go, bye, good luck

- Uncle junior...
- I need to talk to you.
- I came in heavy, like you said, but I don't want to use it.

- Free alterations.
- Missed a spot.
- This is overdue.

- Maybe Christopher knows a good lawyer.
- Oh, you fucking piece of shit.
- I'll call the public defender.
- They'll send someone down.
- Might take a while, though.
- This hour of the night.

[about DVD players]
Tony: I hear there's not as many titles available as on laser.
Brendan: You know, there's more coming, though.
Paulie: My internist told me the picture's not that different from laser either, Tone.
Brendan: But the sound, way improved.
Tony: Good. 'Cause nothing beats popping up some Orville Redenbacher's and listening to "Men in Black".

- I'll be back every Saturday, partner.
- I don't fucking believe this.
- I'm being shaken down, for what?
- Tell me, what did I do?
- This is not right.

Paulie: [before a sit down requested by Paulie, referring to Ralph not arriving on time] I got here first? Cocksucker

Paulie: I think I got ma situated
Silvio: the Brother Joe home?
Paulie: [referring to the odor] nah, fuck that, we went there, almost gagged. Nah, we're gonna go with Greene Grove, based on your recommendation, Tone
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I never recommended it
Paulie: yeah, you did, when your ma there. By the way, did she have the Silver Bird package?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [uninterested] I don't know
Paulie: you know, Sil, it's the most expensive nursing home in the state
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: It's a retirement community
Paulie: the level of care they have, ma was crying
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: eight grand a month?
Paulie: who gives a fuck? You see a seeing eye dog over here? Cup full of pencils?

Paulie: It'll be tough but I'll figure it out: worth every fucking penny, I'm the hero now
Paulie: [to Ralph when he arrives] you're late
Ralph: [before Paulie tries to lunge at him for the insult] well, tomorrow I can be on time, but you'll be stupid forever
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to Paulie while holding him back] hey, sit down
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to Ralph] sit the fuck down and shut up
Silvio: so, who wants to talk first?
Paulie: what's to fucking talk about? I'm owed that fifty g's
Ralph: [raises his voice] fucking alarm code? Fifty g's? Five tops, maybe? As a finder's fee?
Paulie: Freaking heist fell in your lap: you spend your days fucking those fat pigs in the outer office at the carpenters union
Ralph: three mill a year from construction this family sees

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [referring to Ralph's crew] It's not five we all know that: these guys did the heavy lifting
Paulie: Little Paulie was good to go, fucking car never came. They left him waiting outside his house like an asshole in fucking eleven-degree weather
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after thinking it over] Ralph, give him 12k
Paulie: I can't believe this
Ralph: why not? Last year you believed that flying saucers were over East Rutherford
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to Ralph, irritated from his insults] I'm not gonna tell you again
Paulie: T, I'm asking you to reconsider this
Silvio: [replying for Tony] Paulie, you requested a sit down, he heard you out

- What happens if I don't feel like shutting the engine?
- Dispatch, request backup.
- You gotta be fucking kidding me.
- Tony.
- Five-eight-two, what's your 20?
- Dispatch, cancel backup.
- This the high point of your career?
- Wait in the car.

- Anyway, $4 a pound.

- Yeah, hello?
- I'd like to talk to a Mrs. Gualtieri, she's a resident there.
- One moment, please.

Tony: [Referring to how his children socialize with their friends] My girl did the same thing, at his age, always in a group, what's that about?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: What's it about for you?
Tony: In my day a boy and a girl went on a date and your father hoped you wouldn't get too far or else you'd get the girl knocked up and her parents would come over and break your legs
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I don't think it's about him going to the mall with a group that bothered you, it was that he wanted to go to mall instead of the movies with you
Tony: Well, his getting to that age where his got a life of his own
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: One that doesn't include you
Tony: It was always "we'll do this", "we're going to do that..."
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Not so fast I've heard you many times about being with your son
Tony: Yeah well that's over now... gone... done
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Its bitter sweet this period, you're glad they're growing up but you're sad to lose them
Tony: [Intentionally changing the subject] I could be going away, for a very long time for something I didn't do
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [Remains silent]
Tony: [Offended by her not showing any emotions, sarcastically] how about "gee that's too bad Anthony" or "what a shame Tony"
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: We can't go into specifics on this
Tony: Well, here's something "specific", I didn't do anything wrong, we're not suppose to talk about it. I could be going to the can for the rest of my life and I'm not supposed to discuss it with my psychiatrist? What the fuck are you for anyway?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: How does that make you feel? The idea that you might be sent to prison
Tony: I've just got to stay around a little while for the kids, especially my boy. Once his out of the house the government can do whatever the fuck they want to do, give me life, give me the chair, whatever they want
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I've never seen you like this
Tony: Like what?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Scared
Tony: [Amused] you know I wouldn't use that word but sometimes I feel, I don't know, you mother fuckers, you know I don't fuckin deserve this
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [Intentionally changing the subject] how's your medication?
Tony: [Shifting in his seat]
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [Sensing he feels uncomfortable] Maybe we should stop

Vito: [helping him study for his massage license using flashcards] which muscles are attached to the Coracoid process?
Tony: I fuckin know this, it's on the tip of my tongue
Christopher: [entering the room with Paulie, jokingly] oh, study hall again
Tony: pectoralis minor and the coracobrachialis, and... .
Vito: and? Come on, even I know this
Tony: fine, what is it?
Vito: biceps!
Tony: [after checking his flashcards, then throws them on the table] fuck, I knew that: my mind's all over the place
Christopher: fear knocked on the door, faith answered, there was no one there
Paulie: [to Tony B] why do you wanna do this shit, so you can touch a bunch of strangers?
Vito: [to Paulie] you really "skeeve" the human body, don't you?
Paulie: [to Vito] you like it so much? Let me ask you a question, why do pissin, shitin, and fuckin all happen within a two-inch radius?
Christopher: everybody asks that, Paulie, there's no answer for it
Vito: their all "sources of pleasure" though
Paulie: get the fuck outta here!
Tony: I know this shit and the next minute, it's gone
Christopher: I don't know how you do it working full time, if your parole officer is a "problem", give our guy Jimmy Curran a call: he's a supervisor
Tony: it's not that, it's just all this pressure now that I got this "opportunity"
Tony: [to Christopher after he looks confused] Sungyon Kim, my boss, his gonna back me on a whole storefront operation
Christopher: [before Tony B nods] Korean?
Paulie: if your lookin for money, why not come to me?
Tony: this is "different", this "self-owned business" shit is like a religion to these people. Plus, the guy sees "something" in me. You know in some ways, the whole prison "thing" is not that different than being an immigrant
Paulie: [adamantly] word to the wise: remember Pearl Harbor!

- If you pray.
- Will you pray?
- Okay, you just have to follow me.
- In the name of the father...
- The son...
- And the holy spirit.

- Just got the call.
- They put him on a corrections bus this morning.
- This was the better move than taking him out.
- Man was a legend.
- Christopher agrees, by the way.
- Well, that's nice that he agrees.
- But I'm not running a fucking popularity contest.

- What's the matter?
- I'm... I'm not what you think.
- I don't know what to do.
- I need... I want to tell you all something.
- It's driving me crazy.
- Well, you know you can tell us anything.

- No, I liked the Maserati.
- Try the versace, you won't be sorry.
- All right, give me four.
- What's up?!
- Come on. Let's go. Out.
- I got friends here, man!
- Let me call my man Carlo!
- I see you here again,
- I'm gonna crack your head.
- Call Carlo!

- We all do.
- What?
- I shouldn't be sarcastic.
- Just look at her.
- The little baby's hand against her cheek.
- She's so at peace.
- A beautiful, innocent, gorgeous little baby.

Little: [when Tony and Carmine show up at Phil's home] Butch, how are ya?
Butch: Phil's not accepting any visitors right now
Little: I just talked to him on the phone
Butch: I just talked to him in person: he ain't seeing nobody
Little: [before gesturing to Tony] what's going on Butch? I just "brokered" this "thing." He came here making a peace offering: a semi trail of drills: Makitas
Butch: we don't want your fuckin drills
Tony: [pats Carmine on his shoulder] fuck it, let's go

- What?
- I have told you repeatedly...
- I do not wanna hear this shit.
- I let you be part of my movie.
- You let me?
- I'm pouring my heart out, man.
- And I'm very sorry.
- But we met in aa.
- Chris, you're in the mafia.
- Fine.

- Believe me, me and ralphie are working on a few things.
- This battle's gonna be won on the PR. Level.
- Hearts and minds.
- They manipulate your image,
- Columbus...
- You manipulate theirs.
- All right.

- Woman: That loggia was my daughter's idea.
- Nice, huh?
Adriana: Danielle, come check this out.
- Wait, ralphie.
- Oh, come on.
- What?
- What are you doing to me here?

- You should come hang out. New day.
- Vegas, huh?
- All right, Davey.
- Take care of yourself. Drive safe.
- I'm so proud of you. My little baby.
- Sal knew it was today. I told him.
- He's so self-centered.

- It's right over there.
- Ariani El pino?
- Your shitting me!
- That's where my grandfather's from!
- It's right over there.
- We come from the same town.
- Our families probably knew each other.

- What?
- Nothing. I just...
- It's just sad is all.
- What?
- Aj didn't have the flu.
- He didn't go because Tony wouldn't let him.
- He doesn't want you around his kids.
- What happened? What was that?

- I'm ditching Spanish.
- Meet me by the trophy case.
- How could we possibly get busted?
- The boys' room by the stage?
- They never check it.

- Are you gonna operate on me?
- I'm gonna take care of everything.
- The doctor bills, a wig, whatever.
- Don't worry about nothing.
- Okay? Okay.
- Okay.
- I gotta go.

- Chrissy, we're down here waiting for the tvs.
- Let me ask you something.
- The other day, t with that picture.
- He looked like he was gonna cry.
- And still no word from Ralph.
- Where the fuck is this kid?

[the cat jumps on the table in main room in Satriale's]
Walden: He was at the safe house. We brought him over.
Paulie: Get him the fuck out. These are snakes with fur. The old Italians'll tell ya, you can't even put 'em around a baby. They suck the breath right out.
Benny: Well, you're the only baby here, so we're ahead of the game.
Paulie: Ya wanna be wearin' his fuckin' pelt on ya head?

- It's dot, who's this?
- It's Tony, looking for ton.
- Oh, he's not here.
- He didn't come in tonight at all.
- He might be in later, though.
- You wanna try his portable phone?
- I did.
- You see him, you have him call me immediately.
- Okay, will do.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Meeting privately] You been waiting long? Sorry I was interviewing divorce lawyers
Johnny: That's what I always ask myself: "Is it worth it financially?"
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You and Ginny are the old married couple
Johnny: Marriage can be very hard work if both aren't pulling their loads. I was wondering, why the delay?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I was going to call you, you're not going to be happy: I'm out. Whacking a boss is bad for business, now that he settled...
Johnny: We can weather it
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: It's not the internal upheaval. Mr. and Mrs. John Q America by in large they sit still for our shit so people get ripped off. They figure it's not them but it's the O.K. Corral out there, and the Feds take heat
Johnny: This is very disappointing
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I know but his an old man come on, your going to get your chance soon enough
Johnny: Don't go into coaching, it's not your "long suit"
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: What I was going to say...
Johnny: [Unintentionally misquoting Shakespeare's Macbeth, implying his job is hard enough working for Carmine Lupertazzi Sr., but will even be more difficult working with Carmine Lupertazzi Jr] Tomorrow I go into work. "Creeps on this petty pace." Do I take orders from him again? You know that disgusting fucking cock sucking idiot son of his?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I shouldn't be hearing that. What I was going to say it's a major step but if you want to do it without me as a partner, you do what you do what you gotta do. I will never ever reveal any conversation we had
Johnny: The thing is we had those conversations. Your mouth was moving along with mine. So we just go back to our business at the Esplanade like it never happened?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Yeah that would be the healthy choice
Johnny: Healthy for who? Why the fuck would I ever trust somebody who would leave me holding my cock like this?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I shouldn't have heard that either
Johnny: Well, there you go. There's the fuckin problem
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I still consider you a dear, dear friend

- Gets them all riled.
- I could lose my job.
- Fucking stick-up artist.
- I gave you my watch.
- Don't count my money, nigga.
- You're making 500 percent off these motherfuckers.
- You're good till lights out.
- I'll steer people away from the door.

- Terri, they're not even sure she's gonna be able to have children of her own.
- Sal began to cry when he heard that.
- Oh, honey.
- In the end, I know you're not gonna leave him.
- I know you won't do that.

- Deb?
- Debbie?

- I wouldn't say no.
- Get me motivated to clean the house before Christopher gets back.
- Except I'm all out.
- It's 2:00. Cross-eyed Billy probably left the bing already.
- I know a guy, Andre. He's always up.
- Well, cancel the car. I'll give you a ride.

Tony: [referring to attacking Phil's crime family] We gotta hit first
Tony: [referring to agent Harris giving him information on Phil Leotardo] This hooked up tells me all the information I got that this cocksucker already has a target on my back
Silvio: It's a big move
Tony: [asking Bobby for his opinion] So?
Bobby: When he stuck you with the tab on Vito Jr., I said let it go. Obviously, truth is, a fuck like Phil, appeasement don't work

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after entering their mother's home] When'd you change the locks?
Janice: [referring to Svetlana] The minute the Ukrainian dye job was out the door
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Don't mess with the Russians: it's all I'm gonna say
Janice: She can have her leg back when she returns ma's record collection and don't say you wouldn't have done the same thing
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [irritated] I'm getting calls at my house from her cousin, I can't have it, don't fuck with me on this: give back the leg
Janice: Those records are yours too. It's sad you don't care: those records, their a window into ma's soul. In fact, I'm making a documentary The World War Two generation and their music exemplified by ma
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Who the fuck are you kidding? Your gonna sell them on the internet
Janice: I have work to do
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [while making the hand gesture for male masturbation, implying he doesn't believe her] yeah right, cleaning up the cellar. Good luck finding the lost dutchman goldmine, you'd make more money working a real job
Janice: Right, like the minute I'm out of here, you're not gonna have contractors downstairs tearing apart the walls

- It used to be you, didn't it?
- Stop making meatballs, Paulie.
- I'm just saying.
- Now you know what I went through.
- Okay, it's the same Gina had at her wedding.
- We should see how it looks on your face.
- Chrissy.

- I find you immensely attractive.
- Thought I repulsed you.
- You make an effort to repulse me.
- But you like that.
- You just said you find me attractive.
- You're the one that's fucked up.
- Anthony, Anthony.
- What are we gonna do with you?

- But you are not going to hell.
- You're coming back here.
- I love you.

- You get a piece of what he does.
- X is federal territory now.
- I don't want it in my club.
- It would mean a lot to me.
- You've got a lot of balls.
- Did you hear what I said?
- What'd I say?
- No.
- End of chat.
- Okay, thanks.

Massive: [to Chris] You people are alright. "Godfather", I seen that movie two hundred times. "Godfather II" was definitely the shit. The third one... A lot of people didn't like it. But I think it was just misunderstood.

Ginny: [after she visits John in a prison hospital] How's he doing?
Warren: [after shaking her head] Listen, I've been meaning to talk to you about the smoking: John shared with me how upset you were. Psychologically, when a person is told their dying, it's... the ultimate loss of control
Ginny: To hear him breathe like that
Warren: I know, it doesn't make any sense, I do know he is a leader. I suspect his smoking, on some level... is an attempt to die as he lived: in total control
Ginny: Years ago, I asked him to stop for me and the kids, I lost twenty-seven pounds, he couldn't quit smoking?

- Live with your decision.
- I don't like it there.
- Now that's funny,
- I thought I was the problem.
- I make you miserable, remember?
- Well, I never said that.
- You did.
- Absolutely.

Ralphie: What are you being like this for?
Tracee: Fuck you. Three days you don't call, not even to see how I am.
Ralphie: Baby, I'm busy. I gotta work! How else am I gonna take care of you when you're nine months pregnant?
Tracee: Serious?
Ralphie: Of course I'm serious!
Tracee: Ralphie, I love you.
Ralphie: I love you too, baby. Hey, if it's a boy, we'll name him after me. If it's a girl, we'll name it Tracee after you... that way she could grow up to be a cocksuckin' slob just like her mother. Are you out of your fucking mind?
Tracee: Guinea motherfuckin' piece of shit!
Ralphie: Yeah, that's right. Get it out! Get it out you little whore!

Furio: [while entering the kitchen] what's the smell is in this house? It's like the smell of heaven
Carmela: Homemade scones, my son loves them. Here try one, they're just out of the oven
Furio: No, thank you
A.J. Soprano: Well, that's all there is for breakfast? Just fat and carbs?
Carmela: Excuse me, we have guest you think you might say hello?
A.J. Soprano: [ignores her, continues to read from his paper about the novel Billy Budd by Herman Melville to his mother] anyway, "when Mr. Claggart gets mad at Billy, it is a surprise because his always saying how handsome Billy is, this does not seem realistic because why would an officer care if a sailor was handsome or not?"
Carmela: [after Tony walks downs the stars and takes a bite from a scone] AJ, your father's living I'll come up in a minute, go over it
Carmela: [Reads from the envelop Tony hands her] what is this? Ocean Club at Paradise Island
Tony: We leave tomorrow for three beautiful days
Carmela: Tomorrow?
Tony: I know its short notice but the deal came through, got a view suite, first class plane tickets, a guy owes me a favor
Tony: [Seeing her worried] what?
Carmela: I don't know, AJ? School?
Tony: His old enough to spoil himself now. I saw how jealous you were when I left for Florida
Carmela: [Giving him reasons why it's not a practical time for them to go on a vacation] my mother with the skin condition, just the time it's going to take to pack
Tony: To pack?
Furio: [Sensing they want to talk privately] I'll wait outside
Tony: All the shit's that's been going on, the horse and all. I know you need a break: deep down it's probably why you got your hair cut

Tony: [Tony chastises his assembled captains who aren't making enough money for the crime family] This thing is a "pyramid" since time immemorial, shit goes downhill, money goes up: it's that simple. I should not have to be coming here "hat in my hand", reminding you of your duty to that man.
Tony: [pointing at Raymond] and I don't want to hear about the fuckin economy either! I don't want to hear it. Sil, break it down for them. What two businesses have traditionally been recession proof since time immemorial?
Silvio: Certain aspects of show business... and our thing.
Tony: Now that's it. That's all I've gotta say. Frankly, I'm depressed and ashamed.

- Are you all right?
- Yeah!
- Keep going!

Corrado: [after he hands him an envelope, referring to the envelope short of money] It's "light"
Richie: You got your nephew to thank for that
Corrado: What'd you mean?
Richie: I ran into him the other day, at the garbageman's ball, whatever the fuck it is: he says we can't sell coke on the route anymore
Corrado: What?
Richie: It's what he said, I guess nobody should eat but him. You should see him in the golf outfit, he looked like Wallace Beery
Corrado: [angrily] Where does he get the... fuckin balls?
Richie: He's the boss
Corrado: And this shit is ok with you?
Richie: I know you how much you love him, I don't want to say anything disparaging

- They should know.
- I told you.
- You don't listen, you nut.
- It's good seeing you again.
- Still look forward to working with you, John. I mean that.
- You want a coffee?
- Oh, I don't know...
- Oh, my fucking Christ.

- Your nephews ripped up the house and then haven't been back there.
- I needed them to do work on Janice's mom's house.
- Which, all do respect, is also your boss's mother's house.
- Gentlemen.
- Ton, these guys...
- Won't shut up about this ramp.
- Richie, relax, sit down.
- I'll buy you a cup of coffee.

Christopher: Hey, whose fuckin' welfare check you gotta cash to get a burger around here?

Phil: Let me tell you a couple of three things.

- You don't wake up till lunch, mom.
- Tomorrow I'll get up early.
- How about the peppers and eggs and bread?
- That sounds great, ma.
- Okay.
- Do you need more time alone, Jo?
- No. I'm ready.
- Okay, Chris.
- Bye, ma.

Silvio: Chrissie, I hear you're doing good with the gambling.
Christopher: You kidding me? With the money I made, I could go work at Denny's for the rest of my life.
Silvio: Yeah, like they would ever hire you.

Tracee: I'm pregnant. It's Ralphie's.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Congratulations.
Tracee: What should I do? He acts like he doesn't give a shit.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You ever think he's not acting?

- Little carmine knew how fond I was of this kid, Tony.
- I picked him out of the chorus.
- Schooled him those years he was my driver.
- Anything from your cop?
- Some homeless fuck saw a guy limping away.
- And then he wasn't sure.

- Nice talking to you.
- Yeah, you too.
- Enjoy Miami.
- What the fuck is wrong with you?
- What?
- You tell some fucking goober your life story?
- We're supposed to be laying low.
- I'm gonna grab some Danish for the road.

Brendan: So my boy at Comley... said there's a truckload of Italian suits.
Christopher: Those unload fast. Mario'll take the whole load.
Brendan: He said shipment moves Thursday, six a.m.
Christopher: Give me one good reason I should not jack this truck!
Brendan: Hey, don't feel bad, its Junior's own fault. He gives us no choice except to do it again.
Christopher: Takin' that outrageous fuckin' tribute?
Brendan: It's like not only does he shit on our heads, we're supposed to say thanks for the hat.
Christopher: It's not like I'm gettin' somewhere's playin' by the rules! Fuck Tony!
Brendan: The books are closed... blow me.
Christopher: No, that's some true shit.
Brendan: Come on, they're not confirmin' any new made guys, how come?
Christopher: Fuckin' chaos! Nobody knows whose runnin' things anymore. Guys, they don't even know who to make payments up the ladder to in some cases. I'm talkin' about the year two thousand. The millenium. Where do we go from here?

- Honey, who is it?
- Evening, ma'am.
- He has our dog.
- Where is petey?
- He was locked in.
- Come get him.
- I wouldn't want petey to get hit by a car.

Ralphie: Oh what, not even a hello?
Tracee: Fuck you, asshole.
Ralphie: Oh that's very nice. That's how you talk to a man in front of his friends?
Tracee: Yeah, right. What man?
Christopher: Oh, a double!
Bobby: You tell him, sweety!
Gigi: [clapping] I like this girl!
Ralphie: Women, women, women . Why wasn't I born handsome instead of rich?

- Oh, ho, gratzie.
- Vincenzo, turn off that radio!
- Did you hear me?

- You're not going anywhere.
- Let go! Your son'll be home.
- You want him to see his father like this?
- You'd love that.
- I'm not leaving here, carmela.
- I don't love you anymore!
- I don't want you! You are not sleeping in my bed, Tony!
- The thought of it now makes me sick!
- Jesus Christ almighty,
- I'm going fucking crazy!

- So he gets this fucking acid.
- Burns everything.
- He pours it on her arms, on her face, everywhere.
- Her prick.
- That's one bad motherfucker.
- That's how good this broad looked.
- Had my friend totally fooled.
- She had to get a glass eye.

Christopher: [over the phone] Hey, T
Tony: Yeah, I'm here with some people and the Arabs from The Bing, what were their names?
Christopher: [confused] Some people?
Tony: exactly
Christopher: [realizing who Tony's referring to] Oh fuck, yeah. Ahmed and Muhammad, what'd they do?
Tony: [repeats the names to Harris and Goddard who are sitting nearby] Ahmed and Muhammad
Christopher: You know, actually I got a cell phone number. I called him recently but he don't answer no more
Christopher: [after looking at his cell phone for their numbers] 973-555-0146, tell me they're not gonna blow up the chemical plant or some shit
Tony: I don't know, I'll call you later

- What?
- Ho!
- Where the fuck...
- What are you doing?!
- Motherfucker!
- Fucking finook.
- Lying piece of shit.
- Better not come around here no more.

- Then it's not my business.
- Until then, keep your hands in your pockets.
- We understand each other?
- Now get out of here.
- I want to talk to Tony.
- Go ahead.

- I didn't know it was you, Lorraine.
- Here you go. That's most of it.
- Let me ask you a question, Dan.
- Say I'm some big nigger standing here instead of a woman.
- You still gonna tell me you got most of it?
- Let's go, chop-chop, pay the woman.

- And I don't know what it to do.
- All right, wait.
- Hold on.
- Your horse is sick, and the vet won't help until he gets paid.
- These guys, no compassion for the fucking animals whatsoever.
- Maybe you better go down there.
- Tell her to call 555-0157.

- So we are gonna deal with this as a family, together...
- No matter how it affects anybody personal safety-wise...
- Financially-wise, whatever.
- I see that my nephew isn't here and it's important he I am it now.
- It's my desire that you circle the wagons, you support him.
- Until and as such.

- And I disrespected the bing.
- And the girl.
- That shouldn't have happened.
- Like I said, I was doing a lot of coke.
- I gave that up.
- And end of story.
- And I'm sorry, Tony. Okay?

Georgie: [repeated line to strippers at the Bada Bing telling them what he wants if he wants to let them into the VIP lounge] it's fifty bucks to me and a blowjob later on.

- Hey, don't start with that. Okay?
- I'm not insane and I'm not overreacting. You don't know...
- This little pucchiac...
- All right!
- This is getting you no place.
- Go outside...
- Join the party, be with friends, have some pleasure. Go ahead.
- Fucking bitch!
- Tony! Go ahead. Go have a beer.

- Tony...
- This is nice, no?
- Tony...
- Doesn't feel nice?
- I didn't say that.

Anika: How do you know Peter?
Tony: Who Peter? Beansie? An old friend from the neighborhood.
Anika: So the other guy, the one with the white hair thingies, what's his name again?
Tony: Paulie.
[grimaces]
Anika: Right. What is he, like, your best friend?
Tony: He say that?
Anika: I just figured the way he was talking. Honestly, I thought he was your dad at first.
Tony: There was a time when I wished he was. He used to work for my dad.
Anika: I know he told me.
Tony: [looks angry]

- Did you talk to her?
- She's sure you said something.
- He won't discuss it. He clams up.
- Beautiful sendoff, t.
- Thank you.

- This downturn started long before pussy bompensiero disappeared.
- If you want me, I will be at the paramus mall...
- Getting your son a suit to wear to his first formal.
- Carmela, come on!
- Sunlight is good for people.
- In Alaska, they wear little light hats so they don't get depressed.

Sophia: [referring to Janice fighting with another soccer mom during Sophia's game] I'm so embarrassed, I don't wanna see any of my friends again
Janice: well, when you're a parent, you'll see, you'll defend your children like a lion with her cubs
Sophia: you're not my 'parent'
Janice: what did you say? I'm here and I try to care very much. Now get to sleep
Sophia: your gonna punch me?

- Meadow, are you sleeping?
- Yes.
- I want to talk to you.
- God, am I so not going to miss this.

Montel: [during his talk show] welcome back, we're here with our guest Dr. Del Redclay, professor of anthropology at Rutgers university and spokesman for the anti-Columbus protest. Also, Mr. Phillip Di Notti who is the president of the Coalition of Italian American Anti-Defamation organization
Professor: let's start with the "idea" of a parade for a genocidal colonial general, a national holiday no less, such festivities are deeply offensive to us
Phillip: these are pretty "broad" charges, all I know is Italian Americans are extremely proud of Christopher Columbus: admiral of the ocean seas and a great Italian
Professor: you know very well the compromised position we put forth. Now, if your people want to make it an "Italian pride" parade, we have no problem with that
Montel: western history does say Columbus discovered America
Professor: the same "America" that put "your people" in bondage for three centuries
Montel: but every culture has had to bear the pain in the making of what I think we can all agree is a starkly "economic miracle"
Phillip: he cured polio
Montel: I have to agree with Phill, the right to vote
Phillip: exactly. Take my grandparents: two simple people from Sicily, who braved the peril-less middle passage
Montel: [surprised] "middle passage"? That's the term for the slave trade

- You had to hurry me out of that restaurant.
- We're miles from the louvre.
- Fuck, damn it. I already lost a glove.
- Oh my god.
- Holy shit.
- Look at those clouds.
- Paris skies...
- Who could have built this?

- Your friend the cop is bitching about his overtime.
- He's got some black officer's squad looking into his case.
- Oh, yeah?
- If you want, I can get it squashed.
- Get him reassigned.
- You know what? Fuck him.
- Cocksucker got what he deserved.

Adriana: [at Christopher's intervention] But when you killed Cosette, that was the last straw.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Killed the dog? What'd you do that for?
Christopher: It was an accident!
Paulie: What, was it barking?

- Providing Anthony feels he can focus.
- He's had trouble with that before.
- Remember, carm, when they thought he had add?
- You didn't tell me that.
- Anthony, head on back to class.
- Let us talk.
- But if I'm learning-disabled...
- I get unlimited time on my sats.
- Is that true?
- Let's talk about that later.

Carmela: [over the phone] Hi, how are you?
Victor: [referring to them privately kissing] I'm good, I'm fine... I was just thinking about you... and what happened this morning, I just wanted to say again that...
Carmela: [interrupts him] Oh please, please, it was a crazy thing
Victor: But if it's a problem for me to come back, I've got another job in Wyckoff and yours is far enough along that Ramone can finish up so there's no charge to you except for material
Carmela: Oh, no, I wouldn't think of it
Victor: [referring to his deceased wife] It's just since Jill, there's nobody I can really talk to you know?
Carmela: Oh, I know. In fact, I was thinking maybe tomorrow you could send Ramone to the other job that way and I would have a chance to talk you know on your lunch break or something?
Victor: That would be so great

- for richer and for poorer...
- In sickness and in health, forsaking all others, so long as we both shahhve.
- In sickness and in health, forsaking all others, so long as we both shall live.

- Then comb your hair and come right along. Embarrass her.
- Alienate her. Or better yet, cut her off.
- Let her drop out and go to a state school. Or maybe move back in here.
- I was just trying to protect her from herself. And I'll do that till the day I die.
- I'm not gonna tell you you can't come.
- She's your daughter.
- I'll probably watch the game.

- I don't care about that shit.
- I just want you.
- It'll be cheaper anyway.
- We could buy a house.
- Plus...
- A wife can't testify against her husband.
- You can't have a club, stay out all night getting high when you have a kid.

- I'm sorry.
- What the fuck happened over there, you think?
- Tragic.
- What the fuck?!
- It's the bowling ball.
- Cellar stairs.
- Go get it. Help weigh him down.

- You knew matoush zhia.
- Hung out at your girlfriend's club.
- He was a drug dealer, her friend.
- I didn't know shit about his politics till one of your people told me.
- Something to keep in mind.
- I take that terrorism shit seriously.
- And Tony, don't even get him started.

- He's gonna get the best care there is.
- So, Ralph, there's...
- There's something...
- Look, I don't want you to hear it through the grapevine. Especially now.
- I'm seeing that girl you used to date. That...
- Valentina.

[about Christopher]
Richie: The attitude on that camel-nose fuck. He ever lays his hand on my niece again I'm gonna tear him apart piece by piece.
Matthew: Camel nose! You can't make that shit up.
Richie: What the fuck are you talking about? I just did. Did you ever notice he's the only motherfucker who can smoke a cigarette in the rain with his hands tied behind his back? That nose is like a natural canopy.

- She wasn't from the school?
- My god, she sounded so convincing.
- I'm just trying to be honest.
- Yeah? Why'd you lie?
- I didn't wanna piss you off.
- It's about you?
- What? I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
- No, you didn't wanna piss me off, meaning you'd have to deal with me...
- Which is more about sparing you than my fucking feelings!

Dominic: [briefing them] Are we all here? Good afternoon, for those of you that don't know me, my name's Dominic and I'm alcoholic and an addict
Paulie: [irritated] Don't forget scumbag
Dominic: As some of you don't know, I've also been in recovery going on four years. I joined AA in prison and frankly, it saved my life. Now, we're all here today because we have something in common: not only we share a certain background in culture, we also care about Chris and want to help him with his heroin addiction. Has anyone of you guys been involved in an intervention before?
Silvio: We caught our daughter smoking pot once but...
Gabriella: [interrupts him] Not really, no
Dominic: No problem. An intervention is a non-judge mental confrontation: a care-front-tation, we call it. Now what I need from you guys is make a list of specific times where Christopher's drug use impacted on you directly. For example, Adriana, is it?
Dominic: [after she nods] You would say something like this, Christopher, last Monday, you came from work high, belligerent, and you were physically abusive to me
Adriana: What if his high when we try to talk to him?
Dominic: Then we wait until his sober. During my first intervention, Steven Patrono waited ten hours for me to sober up
Silvio: Your first intervention?
Dominic: In 1997, I suffered a relapse, as heroin addicts, alcoholics suffer a fairly high recidivism rate
Paulie: [sarcastically] Great, so his taking advice from a two-time loser?
Dominic: There are no losers in recovery

Paulie: First place I'm hittin' is Denny's!
Christopher: I know. Get like five of those Grand Slam breakfasts.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Maybe you're feeling guilty
Tony: I don't see that. Why would I?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Because his a friend of yours and you're cuckolding him
Tony: [Remains silent, confused]
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Cuckolding is when a man has an affair with another's wife
Tony: She's not his wife anyway, she's his comare
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: And therefore has no status anyway
Tony: Comare's has status. I mean it's not like in the old days when a man had a wife and then sort of a second wife. It used to be they'd take their wives out Fridays and comares on Saturdays or maybe it's the other way around? Anyway when I came up, it wasn't so formal. A business associate of mine has two full families. One up here, one down in Sea Girt, and the second wife bust his balls just as much as the first.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Sounds like a complicated arrangement. I'm afraid our time's up
Tony: Just give me another minute
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I have a patient waiting
Tony: Then let him wait, you make me wait out there all the time. I just want to ask if it's possible for a man to go out with a woman without really "doing anything" with them?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You'll have to be more specific
Tony: He likes them to hurt him, and that's it and he goes and "take care" of himself. His own needs.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: He sounds like a textbook masochist
Tony: You mean like S&M?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: The M part yes
Tony: I thought that stuff was just a run up to the act?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: That's the case for many people but not for people with paraphilias for them seeing humiliated becomes in of itself the sexual release like many other things it's rooted in childhood

- Thank you so much.
- No problem. It was nice to meet you.
- You too.
- Nice house.
- Thank you.

Tony: [regarding Father Phil] What you guys do for twelve hours? Play, uh, "Name That Pope"?
Carmela: He gave me communion.
Tony: Oh, I bet he gave you communion.
Carmela: Excuse me?
Tony: Well, Carmela, the guy spends the night here with you and all he does is slip you a wafer?
Carmela: That's verging on sacrilege.
Tony: Oh, I didn't mean to verge.

- Who do we blame our daughter on?
- Straight-a student, national honor society, featured soloist in the choir.
- Yeah, this isn't going anywhere.
- "Like father, like son," right?
- What about "daddy's little girl"?
- My son's got your uncle Lenny in his gene pool. Do I blame you for that?
- If it helps you.

- Hi, Lorraine. I'm Billy.
- The fuck?! Jason!
- No! Jason!
- Jason!
- Oh, no!
- You were warned, Lorraine.
- The money goes up to John.

- I know. Tony's your best friend.
- President Franklin is my best friend, and he's in there.
- Look, some cooperators, when they get their new identity...
- They do pretty fucking good.
- One snitch became garbage commissioner...
- Of a good-sized city in Florida.

Christopher: Frankly, Tone, I'm thinking maybe we should meet Phil's number.
Tony: Why? I think that would set a terrible precedent right now. Just bend over? When he just became boss of the family over there?
Christopher: Yeah, well, that's the flying ointment. Even still, I say let him have it. Life's too short.
Tony: It's also too short to live it as a fuckin' lackey.
Christopher: True, too.

- The kid thing and all.
- I'm not happy that you lied to me...
- But I think I wanna try and deal with it.
- Really?
- I love you, Adriana.
- I want you in my life.
- I love you too, Christopher.

- I ate grilled cheese off the radiator instead.
- I wanted to fuck a woman...
- But I compromised.
- I jacked off in a tissue.
- You see where I'm going?
- Yeah.

- Near the taxi stand.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- You want the old days, let's go there.
- We'll get a room, bucket of ice from the machine...
- Bottle of scotch, order up a couple steaks.
- Now you're fucking talking.

- The Shelby gt 500?
- 450 horsepower.
- Oh baby, and this guy on campus has one?
- And the mustang's not as expensive as the m3
- I used to talk about getting all the time.

- I'll be back in a little while.
- Stay, wait.
- I'm gonna get cigarettes. Be right back.
- Smoke mine.
- Don't smoke. You'll want a vodka.
- What?
- Come on.
- I love you, baby.
- I love you.

- She stood by you, right?
- What, do you wanna end up like my uncle junior?
- Or worse, like Paulie?
- Exactly.
- Thanks. I gotta go think about it.
- All right.

Carmela: You've heard the term "comfort food". Maybe it'll make you feel better.
Anthony: I know this is hard for you to believe, but food may not be the answer to every problem.
Tony: Neither is acting like a whiny little bitch.

Marie: [talking privately] I really appreciate you letting me see you and you've been so descent about everything since Vito's death, I just don't know who else
Tony: [seeing her become emotional] Alright, alright come on, come on. What can I do?
Marie: [referring to her son] It's little V, the social worker said his just acting out
Tony: Social worker?
Marie: Kids' stuff mostly, but so angry. Although, some of what his being accused of it's just persecution. They claim he hung the Patruzo's cat on the garage door but it's totally unfounded
Tony: Well, in a way, it's to be expected with Vito passing and all that entrails
Marie: I think the only solution is to move away: from that house, the kids at school
Marie: [while reaching into her purse to take out a piece of paper with the details written on it] I figured it out, I know it's a lot but four hundred thousand, my friend Cheryl lives in Orono, Maine, by the university and there's this two-story cape with solid schools, you always said if there's anything you can do
Tony: [nods] Sure, have you talked to his uncle?
Marie: Who?
Tony: Phil
Marie: [shakes her head] Phil's not his uncle: him and I are second cousins
Tony: Before we get too drastic here and uproot Little Vito and all of you from your friends and family, I should talk to him
Marie: His impossible to talk to
Tony: It's not easy to substitute for a dad, I know but maybe... I can fill in here?
Marie: [when he stands up] Ok, but you'll think about it?
Tony: Believe me, I'm gonna take care of you and his gonna be ok

- This is so misdirected.
- The whole fucking world's about your self-esteem.
- Or maybe you don't have enough.
- Jennifer, come on.
- Fuck you, Richard.
- Jen!

- Okay.
- So, the feast of St. Joe's,
- Tony gave some rulings on the unions.
- Were any made guys from New York there?

- Imagine riding in that club car sipping on a negroni.
- Eight grand for the whole set, huh?
- There's other people interested.
- I'm gonna go for it.
- Your son will like this too.
- It looks fast.
- He don't care.

Tony: My mother, my fuckin God damn idiot of a mother, you'd think she was never married to Johnny Soprano
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Is there something else bothering you Anthony?
Tony: [referring to his mother] That's not enough? Fuckin demented old bat
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You're so angry with your mother and the airline tickets and I'm not saying it's not serious but a year ago your mother colluded to have you killed yet you never say anything about that even when I try to illicit. If she tried to have you killed a year ago, believe me in your childhood, she's inflicted serious psychic injuries that are still there
Tony: [Jokingly, sobbingly, puts his shoes on her coffee table] poor me
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: And your father: the gangster, tough guy but did he ever protect you kids from this borderline mother? What the hell was going on there?
Tony: What is this? "Little snacks for thought" for me to take home?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I haven't pushed you enough to confront these things, somewhere along the line I became frightened of you
Tony: Frightened?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Maybe I should've seen that clearer in the beginning
Tony: [Eventually sings] maybe baby, "I'll have you..."
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Rage Anthony is a big loud flaming self distraction fraction from feelings that are even more frightening
Tony: What feelings might those be?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Sadness, you go off on a racist rant about Indian food, your demented old bat of a mother. What else has happened?
Tony: Nothing
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: After two years treating you I've learned things and I pick up sorrow coming from you
Tony: [Intentionally changing the topic] I had a dream I fucked your brains out, right on that desk, you loved it
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Well, you threw that me like a rock. Sadness Anthony stay with that. Your mother tried to kill you and you gave her airline tickets
Tony: Fuck you
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Now you're really in trouble,
Tony: [Before getting up to leave] I'm going to beat this shit, you kidding me? And with that

Dr. Harrison Wong: [to Tony, referring to Junior and the mental state exam] He was disoriented when he came in and scored low on his Folstein but that's consistent with concussion
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [yells] We're gonna sue the God damn Justice Department
Dr. Harrison Wong: CAT scan's negative, so far, so good
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: He didn't seem like himself
Dr. Harrison Wong: Man his age could've been working on dementia for quite a while and the blow to the head tipped him over
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You mean like Alzheimer's?
Dr. Harrison Wong: That's one form of it: that's why we want to keep him here to keep an eye on him. There's a good chance this can go away

Junior: Fran Felstein? That was classy
Tony: She had great legs for an old broad
Junior: I was in love with that woman: she was the reason I never married, I wanted to propose, I had the ring all picked out
Tony: So, what, she turned you down?
Junior: I hesitated, how could I bring this life we live on a woman? Anyway, she took it as a sign I wasn't interested and then one night we were all at the 500 club to see Enzo Stuarti, your father shows up, with size four suit with a two-inch lapel, and that was that. She never knew my feelings, what could I do? For years, I suffered in silence

- Ho, pal.
- Move your car. We're late.
- Move El automobile.
- Rusty! Don't forget to call Marissa.
- Hurry up. Let me see.
- Museum...
- Eastern parkway.
- Eastern parkway, not the belt parkway.

- Seriously. I gotta get out of here.
- I give myself up utterly and totally to god.
- If this is the bottom.
- If not...
- You can go now.
- Billing needs to see you.
- Follow the blue line.

- He'll attend the church service...
- Then pay his respects to the family aftennards.
- Thank you, counselor. We appreciate it.
- You're worth every fucking cent.
- They're gonna have Scottish bagpipes at the funeral.
- It should be interesting.

- Am I so horrible?
- You are not horrible.
- Get over yourself.
- Over myself?
- What is that supposed to mean?
- Just go. Do me a big favor.
- If you're gonna be a martyr,
- I'll sit here.
- Nope, go. Put your plate in the sink.

- What do you got for me, Nicky?
- Let met get my wallet.
- Fucking skeeve, this shit.

- World's still in front of us.
- Balls.
- My estimate historically,
- 80% of the time it ends up in the can like Johnny sack or on the embalming table at cozarelli's.
- Don't even say it.
- No risk, no reward.

Junior: [after a knife falls out from under A.J.'s jacket] That's not my knife!

- I didn't understand.
- You were young.
- Stubborn.
- You always had my back, though.
- Like that day when I came to the house.
- I gotta talk to you.

Tony: Did you ever know anybody that ever committed suicide?
Janice: Uhmm, plenty. I used to live in Seattle, Tony.

- What'd you do to your head?
- Did you fall again?
- Banged it on the medicine chest.
- Don't worry about it. It's nothing.
- There's your allowance.
- Well, that actually looks like fruit.
- Yeah. It's so hard.
- What do you do it for?

- I haven't seen him since the schvitz.
- The last thing he said to me was,
- "go fuck yourself!"
- Did he at least take the schvitz?
- He refused to take his clothes off.
- It's fucking Jimmy!
- Fuck it! Let's all have a drink!

J.T. Dolan: [Telling him about his troubles] I met with the Dick Wolf guy. They hired some kid from Yale. Plus now the money I owe you. My ex fuckin wife
Christopher: How many times have you shot up?
J.T. Dolan: [Shrugs] five, six. I thought I had it under control. I lost it
Christopher: [Shakes his head] stupid fuck you were doing so good now you fucked it all up
J.T. Dolan: Where do you get the right?
Christopher: Your going to use, why didn't you call your sponsor?
J.T. Dolan: I couldn't get him
Christopher: Why the fuck didn't you call me?
J.T. Dolan: [Remains silent]

- Look, ma, here's your stuff.
- Wow, they made good time.
- You got your own bed and your dresser.
- You know, when my grandmother went to live... elsewhere...
- They weren't allowed personal effects.
- All right, ma, sign right here.

- What the hell is wrong with you?
- When you ignore me, Tony...
- When you trivialize things important to me, like our financial security...
- It makes me feel unloved.
- That's your problem there, because you equate love with money!
- No, you equate love with money!

- You sure this is it?
- Pike's hollow.
- A mile in, by the picnic table.
- Where's their car?
- Maybe they left.
- No, they wouldn't leave without calling.
- Let me try him again.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: What was it like sitting sitting there with Fran?
Tony: It was a little weird at first. Here I am comforting my father's mistress, my mother's lyin' there dead.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Are you attracted to her?
Tony: Come on, she's old enough to be my mother.
[Dr. Melfi shrugs]
Tony: Oh, Jesus Christ, it's an expression. Don't cream yourself. I did not want to fuck my mother! You should have seen her in her housedress with that hairnet. This conversation would be over in two seconds.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: When's the last time you had a prostate exam?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Hey, I don't even let anyone wag their finger in my FACE.
[Dr. Melfi laughs]

- Oh, hi.
- Carm, hi.
- I'm sorry.
- Am I interrupting something?
- I'm here for the free bodywork certificates for the auction.
- Oh, that's right.
- But if you're busy...
- This'll just take another sec.
- Okay, sure.

- One of us could've got hurt, or even killed, for Christ sake.
- I know.
- You're special to me, you know.
- Always have been.
- You too, Paulie, to me.
- We'll split the tab.
- I'm sorry, Paulie.
- I apologize too, kid.
- I'll talk to you later.

- Listen, by the way,
- Artie bucco's here to see you.
- I gotta go, guys.
- Take care.
- Artie, you all right?
- I can't.
- What are you talking about?
- We discussed this.
- You gotta leave town.
- I'm sorry.

- What are you looking at?
- You gonna cry now?
- Get out of here.
- I'm in no mood for your...
- Shit.

Paulie: [to Bobby Baccalieri] The boss of this family told you you're gonna be Santa Claus, you're Santa Claus. So, shut the fuck up about it!

David: [while in the bathroom] hey, buddy
Tony: I saw your wife out there alone, I figured you were out at the trotters
David: Not tonight, I had a customer, I couldn't "shake". The guy spends half an hour deciding between a twenty dollar soccer ball and a twenty two dollar soccer ball. So who do you like?
Tony: I don't know, I think that guy from Bowdoin seems to make sense, I guess?
David: No, I meant on the game tonight
Artie: [after entering the bathroom, jokingly] you guys want to be alone?
David: [to Artie] I saw the refreshment table out there, I knew you'd be lurking around here somewhere
Artie: I don't know how I always get "roped" into this shit
Tony: Charmaine's no fool
Tony: [Referring to one of Artie's pastries] she knows one of your Sfogliatella in the right mouth and your daughter can go to any school she wants
Artie: So far the janitor's the only one going near them
Tony: [Jokingly] that's a nice career path for a young lady

Christopher: You know, and I know, they were there to boost that shit.
Paulie: It couldn't wait, OK? I promised a load to Lenny down the Joint Fitter's Union.
Christopher: What do I give a fuck? It ain't my union!
Paulie: Lower your voice, I got neighbors.
Christopher: Fuck your neighbors! When are you gonna pay me?
Paulie: When you suck the money out of my ass! Now get the fuck out!

- We're asleep!
- All right, help me.
- Dude, take it easy.
- I'm sorry, man.
- Fuck.
- Oh, dude.
- Oh, fuck.
- Oh, fuck me.

- Salute.
- I needed that.
- What's the matter?
- Spent a long time in the hospital last night.
- The shit that goes on down there.
- I wasn't expecting no visitors.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after a near-death experience] Every day's a gift.
[pause]
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: It's just... does it have to be a pair of socks?

- Should we go to a meeting?
- I don't know.
- What do you wanna do?
- I know one that starts in half an hour in Glen Ridge.

- Yes, daddy.
- See, with my family now, you know, in separation...
- You gotta make an appointment to see each other.
- I should go see uncle zio.
- Yeah.
- All right.
- Show him the phone.
- Yeah.

- Supportive or discouraging?
- If anyone objects to this marriage, speak now or forever hold your peace.
- I say neutral or supportive.
- Even if we discourage it, she'll go through with it.
- Agreed then. They have our blessing.
- To the happy couple.

Christopher: [sitting in an abandoned van in the woods, during the winter, sees Paulie chewing on small white objects in his mouth] what are those? Tic Tacs?
Paulie: I just found them, I didn't know I had them on me.
Christopher: You had Tic Tacs all along? Give me some.
Paulie: There ain't no more, I ate them.
Christopher: [referring to the fact he didn't eat breakfast] selfish prick, I'm dying here.
Paulie: [dismissively] Then fuckin die already.

Agent: [in Dwight's office] You see Metro News?
Agent: No
Agent: Your old beat: Phil Leotardo got popped

Construction: [Tony and Silvio are looking for Vito after he's been outed as a homosexual. Tony calls Vito's cellphone. A construction worker picks the phone up off the side of the road] Hello?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [on phone] Vito?
Silvio: You got him?
Construction: [on phone] Who?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [on phone] Put Vito on the phone, asshole.
Construction: [on phone] Fuck you, motherfucker.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [on phone] What, are you sucking his dick?
Construction: [on phone] Bet I'd kick your ass, you fucking faggot.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [on phone, yelling] Yeah that's right, telephone tough guy! Put Vito on the phone!
Construction: [on phone] There ain't no Vito, man. I found the phone on the side of the road!
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [on phone] What?
Construction: [on phone] Hang on a second!
[the construction worker tosses Vito's phone under a steam roller]
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [on phone] Where'd you find the phone? Hello? Hello? Oh you motherfucker!
Silvio: What happened?

Tony: [while in the casino his cousin Tony put him in charge of running, greeting him] there he is!
Angelo: [hugs each other] hey kid, it's good to see you
Tony: [hugs each other] you finally made the trip out here, huh?
Angelo: [introducing him] this is my oldest Charlie
Charlie: nice to meet you
Tony: [before taking them to his office] walk with me
Angelo: you in that suit
Tony: long way, huh?
Tony: [referring to Angelo's son, jokingly] he "lucked out", got his mother's looks
Angelo: takes after it too: his in "architectural salvage"
Charlie: pole fixtures, windows, toilets
Tony: [jokingly] like Sanford and Son?
Angelo: [to Tony B, referring to his son] did I tell you his quit?
Tony: [giving him a toast] good for you Charlie, solute
Angelo: [while taking out an envelope of money] oh, this is "some more" for the Joey Peeps "thing", not all of it
Angelo: [when Tony B gestures to Charlie, implying if Charlie can be trusted to hear about their business] his ok
Tony: [puts the envelope in his suit pocket] Jesus, I did a "clean" job
Angelo: fuck it, it's embarrassing, but that's the way Little Carmine are doing things over there now. I'm sorry but I think Rusty bangs his wife in "installments"?
Tony: [to Charlie, referring to Angelo] this guy was my old man, my rabbi, and my priest, "rolled" into one and even though I don't miss a fuckin day of it, the parts with this "fireplug" were the best
Angelo: [after Tony B kisses him on the head] get the fuck outta here
Angelo: [while giving a wooden sign inscribed "Because I'm the boss, that's why"] oh, I almost forgot, it spoke to me on the account on your sense of humor and all
Tony: [before hanging it on the wall] I'm putting it in a place of prominence

Tony: [Referring to her blouse] is that new? Looks good
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Did you bring your log?
Tony: My log?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You remember last week, you were going to keep a record. I asked you to write any feelings of anxiety or memories of past anxiety attacks
Tony: [Remembering what they discussed at their previous session] yeah, my parents, the pork store, it was interesting
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Have you thought at all about that?
Tony: How do people find the time?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: To get well
Tony: My mother's dead, I haven't had a panic attack since
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You've gone months without them before, the conflicts that caused them and your depression are buried deep inside you. Are you happy?
Tony: Am I happy? Look, I'm sorry I didn't bring the list. I'll bring it next week
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [sighs] we ought to think about bringing your wife into this
Tony: In here? Carmela?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You're the one who wanted to take a more proactive approach
Tony: [Disagreeing with her suggestion] that's not in the future
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Let's talk frankly. You've demanded more of me. Fine but you're not trying
Tony: Yeah I know, the past, but shit happens in my daily life that needs attention now. I got some genuine concerns, like my son, he shies away from anything that requires effort and I think that he picks that up from me. I mean his in football now right? But Carmela is guilty about this as I am.

Paulie: You know we should hit a Devils game some night
Salvatore: You still get tickets from the Greek?
Paulie: Right on the fuckin ice
Salvatore: I'll bring my sweater
Paulie: [Greeting Furio as he walks up to their table] hey, "chef of the future", have a seat
Salvatore: [to Furio, intentionally mispronouncing his name, mocking him] how you doing?
Furio: [Correcting him, unaware of the insult] Furio
Salvatore: [while Furio pours wine for him, jokingly then laughing] you didn't stomp those grapes yourself, did you?
Johnny: [Noticing them] look at this group
Paulie: [to Johnny] hey, "Mr. New York." What did you do? Swim across that river?
Johnny: [Before hugging him, referring to his promotion] come over here: congratulations
Johnny: [to Pussy, referring to his impoliteness] hey, don't get up
Salvatore: I wasn't gonna
Johnny: [Jokingly] piece of shit
Paulie: [referring to Italy] Say hello to Furio, "friend of ours" from the "other side"
Johnny: Oh, hey, I heard a lot about you
Furio: Nice to meet you
Johnny: Yeah, me too, my pleasure

- Zellman tell you this?
- No, carmine doesn't know anything about this yet, Tony.
- I'm giving you an opportunity to cut a deal and make it right.
- Last time, frelinghuysen Avenue, I cut you in out of friendship, but it's over.
- You got nothing coming to you.
- You or carmine.
- You sure you wanna go down this road, Tony?

- Is it possible he knows where Phil leotardo is?
- I want to try to avoid any more of my guys getting hurt.
- I'm just saying, if you heard anything from your pal...
- I haven't.
- I figured maybe money's sent to the middle east.
- You're overreaching.

- I can't believe it. I mean,
- I knew it would happen, but...
- So now can we get out of here, you know?
- Get a big loft, maybe?
- You're giving notice today.
- You wish.
- The wife of a made guy doesn't hostess.
- I'm so proud of you.
- I love you, Christopher.
- You better.

- It shouldn't look like what it is.
- Home invasion, carjacking, fucking ingrown toenail.
- I know these black guys from irvington.
- Well, that's the right idea.
- It can never get out who whacked the old fuck.
- Are they trustworthy, these guys?
- Yeah.
- Make sure.

- I'm thirsty.
- See if we got something to drink.
- What can I get you?
- You want a fanta?
- Something like that?
- Here.

- Oh, wait till you see the shots of aunt Gemma from the '60s.
- You forget what a beauty she was before the steroids.
- Bobby, you're a wonderful host.
- It was our pleasure.
- Goodbye. When nica wakes up from her nap, give her a belly smooch from us.
- Okay. Bye.

- Yeah?
- We're sorry to disturb you at this hour, Mr. Petraglia...
- But there's a Mr. Mantovani to see you.
- He says it's urgent.
- Send him up.

- Furio's here.
- You doing some work on the house?
- Yeah, you know, sinking some anchors for a wall mirror.

- I thought we were getting along better.
- So you polluted all the decent lawyers in
- New Jersey so they can't represent me?
- You couldn't play fair.
- I'm not the one that wanted it!
- Okay, so let's just pretend...
- That you weren't begging for it in millions of ways...
- Because I am worn out here.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You know, there's this Russian woman. She told me something that's very true. She said, only here, in America, do we expect to be happy. I mean this woman, she had a terrible leg disease since she was 9. She was dirt poor. She's getting on with her life. I mean, over here, we come and we bitch to shrinks. I mean, what the fuck?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Well, part of that may be true. But, who said that after getting out of the dirt and the poverty, do we have to stop looking for pain and truth?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Pain and truth? Come on, I'm a fat fucking crook from New Jersey.

- He's not happy with Phil neither.
- I know.
- You're not part of that family.
- You're basically retired.
- Everybody trusts you.
- What I'm thinking, you'd supply a neutral location, guarantee everybody's safety.
- I could do that.

- What the fuck is this?
- It was a front-end collision, Phil.
- This new paint isn't as brilliant.
- It's factory paint, same as original.
- It is different, it's duller.

Tony: [Referring to his recollection of his mother excited by fresh meat] it was probably the only time the old man got laid
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Probably
Tony: Pretty sick huh? Getting turned ob by free cold cuts
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Do you think you questioned why the meat was free? The meat that was going into her children's mouths?
Tony: [Referring to his parent's intimacy] I don't know, I don't want to know, I don't even want to think about any of this shit
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I'm sure it was too much for you then too, that's why you short-circuited. Puberty, witnessing not only your mother and father's sexuality but also the violence and blood so connected to the food you were about to eat. And also the thought that someday, you might be called upon to "bring home the bacon", like your father
Tony: All this from a slice of gabagool?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Kind of like Proust's Madeleine's
Tony: [Confused] what?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Marcel Proust wrote a seven volume classic: Remembrance of Things Past. He took a bite of a Madeleine, it's kind of a tea cookie he used to have when he was a child and that one bite unleashed a tide of memories of his entire childhood and ultimately of his entire life
Tony: This sounds very gay, I hope you're not saying that
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: No, understanding root causes will make you less vulnerable to future episodes
Tony: My fuckin head is swimming here
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: We're going have to stop, it's a lot to process but we've made real progress today, good work and I'd really like you to write down any thoughts or "associations."

- Ton? Ton, you there?
- Goddamn! Fuck!
- Call me back!
- You're not gonna believe this.
- He killed 16 czechoslovakians.
- The guy was an interior decorator.
- His house looked like shit.

- Dr. Cipolla's service.
- I need to talk to the doctor.
- Is this an emergency?
- Of course.
- Dr. Cipolla's out of town.
- Dr. Paglieri's on call.
- Do you wanna be connected?
- Nah.

- What?
- I need to give this back to you.
- I can't keep it.
- But why? I mean, I love you.
- I love you too, Anthony.
- Look, I don't know. Maybe I don't.
- All's I know is
- I just don't feel it.

- Sadness, Anthony, stay with that.
- Mommy tried to kill you and you gave her airline tickets.
- Fuck you.
- Now you're really in trouble.
- I'm gonna beat this shit, you kidding me?
- And with that...
- Anthony?

Jack: [while giving him a painting of the Rat Pack] I saw this and I thought of you
Tony: [surprised] Oh, look at that
Jack: A little gift to show my gratitude for all our work together
Tony: [shakes his hand, referring to the images of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr] Thanks. Look at those guys: they had sometime
Jack: You know we're gonna finally cut the ribbon for the museum on the twenty second? Their gonna ask me to make a speech on the challenges of contemporary urban development
Jack: [after placing his order with the waitress] listen, my buddy in City Planning says they pulled the permit to turn the old bus into a mixed use but the thing is Zellman hasn't given me a number, has he said anything to you about another bid?
Tony: We don't talk much, take your hat off: relax
Jack: yeah, I just started Rogaine, do you think you can ask Ron if this falls under the same arrangement?
Tony: [points to his desert] Kind of soggy if you want to know the truth
Jack: [nervously] This is federal redevelopment
Tony: I'll look into it
Tony: [after the waitress brings Jack's order to the table] So, a speech huh?
Jack: Yeah
Tony: [referring to the name of their construction project] The Museum of Science and Trucking
Jack: I just wish my mother could've seen it
Tony: Well, whenever she is, I'm sure she's proud
Jack: Actually, I do know exactly where she is and it's pretty fuckin hot
Tony: You had one of those too huh?

- Kitty got this dot-com job in San Diego, so we're moving.
- I didn't even know you were married.
- Yeah.
- But you're in luck.
- Birgit is taking over.
- How wonderful.
- I never even played once.
- That's why you're here.
- Carm, I was wondering about letters of recommendation...

- He probably moved them by now.
- However, this engagement party for the sister?
- I'll wire you up.
- I know you're sensitive...
- What the fuck was I, his errand boy?
- The saturn, yeah.
- Looking for his kid's teacher's car.
- What is that? Any faith I had went out the window that day.

- It's business, jan.
- Now?
- Yeah.
- Well, when are you coming back?
- I'm not sure. A couple days.
- A couple of days?
- The salernos are coming tomorrow.
- Stop fucking nagging me.
- I'll be back as soon as I can.

- I have to.
- Oh, god, why?
- What did I say now?
- I suppose I should've just kept my mouth shut, like a mute.
- And then everybody would've been happy.

Tony: [Referring to Paulie] you should've seen him out there, he could handle himself his got the balls of twenty year old, his my friend but can't stop, his such a bladder mouth, he asks me not tell anyone about his prostate I say "sure" then he tells everybody
Peter: He was always like that, You forgot, one time I fell asleep while he was on the phone, I wake up twenty minutes later and he was still going
Tony: I've got to say, it concerns me lately
Peter: People live alone and they get like that it's sad
Tony: [Referring to Beanie's wife] you married a good woman the way she stood by you?
Peter: That's what Paulie doesn't have and I'm speaking to your point, his got no wife and no kids
Tony: His got so steady income stream either, except for Barone which is coming to an end, I told him if you can't legitimate income your vulnerable to the Feds he don't do shit about it
Peter: I think you're worrying for nothing
Tony: Things are going great finally, maybe I'm just waiting "for the other shoe to drop"
Peter: All I know is Paulie Gualtieri is a standup guy
Tony: Has he been ever to the test? He had this painting in his house, I was all dressed up as a general
Peter: [laughing] I heard about that
Tony: It pissed me off I thought it was a fucking joke but now I don't think it was
Peter: He loves Tony, your all his got, you, the guys, and his image
Tony: I love him too

- It's a loan, I'm juicing her.
- Usually it's fake tits they want.
- Yeah, well, she don't need those, that's for sure.
- That kid's a thoroughbred.
- But, madonn', those choppers.
- A fucking train wreck.

- But of course, it makes sense.
- Don't besmirch the man, sal.
- So about the yard...
- Do you believe this fucking guy?
- You're done with that.
- Come on. Let's go check out these DVDs.

Carmela: [after hanging up the phone with AJ] Tony seemed to "hit the hooch" a little at lunch today, I think his feeling his age?
Janice: What'd you think it's like for me? When we were kids, he did whatever I said. My therapist, Sandy said our mom was a "splitter". She "pit" the three of us against each other, to toughen us up, I guess? I couldn't help overhearing you with AJ, God, you gotta "walk on eggshells" with these kids today, huh?
Carmela: We're "almost" through that "phase", thank God
Janice: Your good with them
Carmela: really? I wish he'd go back to college: sleeps most nights at Blanca's
Janice: Speaking of kids and ma, Sandy said something "interesting", that when we were babies, everything was "fine" but ma couldn't stand as babies get older, they "separated" from her. When they started to talk and express ideas, that's when the trouble started, it wasn't that she didn't love us

- These two suck each other's cocks.
- What'd you say to him?
- Have a nice day.

- How could you say that?
- Look, Tony.
- I don't feel well. My joints ache, my stomach is all queasy.
- You asked, I told.
- Just making conversation.
- If you don't care, don't bring it up!
- All right, calm down.
- I don't have enough on my plate?
- One of my key guys disappeared to Naples, for Christ sakes!

- Tony...
- Hey!
- I got stuff for the party, toys.
- From me and junior.
- They're not wrapped, but this way they can see what they're getting.
- Tell junior thank you.

Gerry: Don't get me wrong, I love Dom more than anybody: my point is we don't know if Tony was behind this
Phil: It's payback for Vito
Gerry: So, why the fuck did they blow up the Wire Room?
Albie: [referring to Tony] Balls on this prick
Butch: To blow up a store? You call that balls? Balls is you look a guy in the eye while you jam an ice pick through his lung
Albie: I meant balls as in nerve, gall
Butch: [irritated] I know what the fuck you meant. As far as I'm concerned, this is like 9/11, Tony wanted our attention? Fine, he got our attention. Now we wipe him off the planet
Phil: You know that fat cocksucker says I look like the Shah of Iran?
Butch: Who does?
Gerry: Tony
Albie: I never got that at all
Phil: Fat piece of shit
Butch: It's irrelevant, Phil but his testing you: all the time and you keep indulging him
Phil: Your right but whack a boss? I won't do that
Butch: It's been done before
Phil: And it was wrong then
Butch: [insistently, referring the Soprano crime family] eye for an eye then, huh? Pick somebody over there

- Welcome home, t.
- Come here, you malingerer you.
- Easy, easy, easy.
- Great to have you back, t.
- Fucking great to be back.
- Sit, ton', I'll clear your spot.
- We got you your bialy as soon as we heard you were coming in today.
- Nuke that Joe so it's hot.

- Good morning. Anthony soprano.
- Yup. See some photo ID, please?

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Tony is having a fever dream where Pussy is a fish on ice at a food market] How much you weigh?
Salvatore: Eight pounds.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Lost a lot of weight!
Salvatore: Swimmin'! The best exercise. Works every muscle group.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Get the fuck outta here! You never exercised once in your life!
Salvatore: Anyway, $4 a pound.
[pause]
Salvatore: You know I've been working with the government, right, Ton'?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Don't say it.
Salvatore: C'mon, Ton'. Sooner or later, you gotta face facts.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I don't want to hear it.
Salvatore: Well you're *gonna* hear it.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [dejectedly] Fuck.
Salvatore: You passed me over for promotion, Ton'. You knew.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: How much shit you give 'em?
Salvatore: A lot.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Jesus, Puss.
[pause]
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Fuck of a way for it all to end, huh?
Salvatore: Yeah.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Yeah.
Salvatore: [referring to the fish lying next to him] These guys, on either side of me... they're asleep.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Don't say that! Not fuckin' funny!
[angrily turns over the table and knocks all the fish to the ground]

- or act at cross-purposes.
- Here. So you can buy a suit to look nice forjob or college interviews.
- This is not for fun.
- This is not to be used for any kind of personal entertainment.
- Thanks.

- So this guy still in a coma?
- Should I visit him, or is that too fucked up?
- Yeah, I think you should go see him.
- I don't know.
- Maybe I should send flowers, or some shit.
- Oh, what the fuck?

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: So, all the women in your house are gone. How do you feel about Carmella taking a trip without you?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Do we really have to fuckin talk about this?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Of course not. Before we end, is there anything you'd like to discuss?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Remains silent]
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: OK
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: How about the fact that I hate my son? I come home and his sitting in front of the computer in his fuckin underwear. Wasting his time in some chit chat room going back and forth like some other fuckin jerk off giggling like a school girl. Fuckin smash his fuckin face in. My son, what'd you think about that?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Anthony, I think your anger towards AJ has been building up for some time, we have to deal with this
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: All I know is it's a good thing my father's not alive because let me tell you he'd find this fuckin hilarious
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Find what hilarious?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: The kind of son I produced
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You mean because Anthony doesn't conform to what your father's idea of what a man should be?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: His, mine, or anybody's. Let me tell you if Carmella let me kick AJ's ass like my father kicked my ass, he might've grown up with some balls
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Like you?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Yeah like me
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: He might've also grown up taking out his anger and his father's brutality towards him on others. He might've grown up with a desperate need to dominate and control. Anthony we've been "dancing" around this for years: how you live, what is it you want from your life?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I couldn't even hit him if I wanted to. His so fuckin little, his Carmella's side of the family, they're small people. Her father, you could knock him over with a fuckin feather
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Ok but I have to point out: what you resent Carmella doing for AJ, protecting him from his father, is the very thing you had often wished your mother had done for you

- You were like a fish out there.
- Where's dad?
- He couldn't make it.
- He had a meeting.
- He'll be here next time.
- This is the last meet of the season.
- Next year, I mean.
- Oh.
- Okay.

[Paulie and Christopher chase Mikey into the woods, until he finally twists his ankle and falls]
Mikey: Please, please, come on! No!
Paulie: Fuckin' poison ivy all over me.
Christopher: My friend Brendan, you shot him in the bathtub, naked. No chance to run.
Mikey: I swear to god, it wasn't me! It was Junior! He fucking hated that kid!
Christopher: Yeah, right. It was Junior. Mr. Magoo!

Bill: [after seeing Janice come through the door] Svetlana, get out here
Janice: [while noticing the boxes his carrying, cheerfully] Oh, hi, you must be the famous Bill, moving day huh?
Svetlana: Oh, I didn't think you had the nerve to show your face to me
Janice: Why? What happened? What's wrong?
Svetlana: [disgusted] Oh, don't give me bullshit. Where is my leg?
Janice: Your leg? Oh, yeah. Where's your...
Svetlana: [interrupts her] I know you took it
Janice: That's preposterous. I mean what possible use could I have for your leg?
Svetlana: Because you think that will make me give the records back but you are wrong
Janice: [sarcastically] If you see some karmic connection between your taking my mother's records and the disappearance of your leg, the records returned to the rightful owner and so will your leg, I can see how you got there
Bill: I don't know how you can live with yourself
Svetlana: Bill, don't waste your breath, this cunt is gonna be sorry she ever fuck with me

Christopher: [to J.T. Dolan referring to the movie Cleaver they wrote that has similarities to aspects of Tony's life] It was an idea, I don't know, who knows where they fuckin' come from? Isaac Newton invented gravity 'cause some asshole hit him with an apple!

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to Paulie referring to Ralph] you lay a hand on him and you're going to answer to me, if you can quote the rules you can fucking obey them, do you understand?

Carmine: One other thing though. John told me he went to a cookout at your house.
Tony: Yeah.
Carmine: A don doesn't wears shorts.

- And they can't find him, so somebody's gotta go down there and pay the vet.
- Down where?
- The racetrack.
- It's a racehorse?
- So why do you have to go?
- You bought a racehorse?
- No. I didn't buy it.
- It followed you home?
- The horse is sick.

- What?
- Come here. We're exterminating.
- I'm busy now.
- Get some sfogliatelle for the guys.

- I could have an empire like Bobby flay.
- And it still wouldn't be good enough for you.
- Okay, I'll make you a deal, Artie.
- We'll start working on your empire...
- Right after we pay the $10,000...
- Of orthodonture
- Melissa's gonna need this year.

- What's the matter, Tony?
- Nothin'.
- I tell you we do real good business-wise?
- I got fuckin' double on those cars.
- Here he comes.
- Hey, c'mon!

Skip: [meeting privately, referring to meeting with Tony] how'd it go?
Skip: [after Pussy hands him an audiotape of the wiretap his been recording] was Sundeep there?
Salvatore: yeah
Salvatore: [before handing him a white envelope full of money] my whole cut
Skip: [handing him a small amount of money from the same envelope] here
Skip: [when Pussy rolls his eyes and shakes his head after looking at the small amount of cash] what's the matter?
Salvatore: what's the matter?
Skip: [irritated] I know, Tony's your best friend
Salvatore: President Franklin is my best friend, and his in there
Skip: look, some cooperators, when they finally get their new identity, they do pretty fuckin good. Some snitch I worked with became garbage commissioner of a good size city in Florida

- A self-perpetuating revenue base.
- The $100 million Newark museum of science and trucking...
- Will serve to make this the attraction of the area and beyond.
- This fucking busted valise, he's worth every cent of his cut.
- Fucking dry wall contracts alone.
- Thank you very much.

- I'm child of divorce.
- Shouldn't have been drinking in the afternoon.
- How about a little sympathy?
- You got ice in your veins?
- I had ice in my veins on your uncle couch?
- Most expensive piece of ass I ever had.
- Right. I know what you are thinking too.
- Take care, Tony. You're a strong guy.
- You'll be all right.

Christopher: Wait a minute. What's if Vesuvio's bugged, and the fuckin' Feds told Johnny?
Silvio: Conspiracy theories now?
Christopher: Why not? Create a little dysentery among the ranks.
Tony: First of all, the place is swept once a week. Second of all, what the Feds want is a lot more interesting shit that's being talked about in there besides Ginny Sack's fat ass.

- He's a goddamn hothouse flower.
- That's his problem.
- Thank you for getting my TV fixed, Paulie.
- Vitro it's such a sin.
- He fired his Spanish helper.
- Took his boy out of college.
- He couldn't afford it anymore.
- He said it's his last time coming here.

- My god, you scared the shit out of me.
- No. Shut them off.
- Why are you sitting in the dark?
- I don't know.
- I like the dark.
- Sit.
- I gotta go online.
- Oh, come on. Sit for a minute.
- Come on.

- What a shame Barry Sanders retired.
- He's a real sweetheart.
- A.j., did you tell them how I served him at Kenny Rogers?
- Colonel Sanders.
- No. At Kenny Rogers. Barry Sanders.
- Yeah, she served him.
- Yes!
- Hey.

Bobby: [talking privately with Sil and Vito to settle a dispute] That was Junior's neighborhood, now's its mine
Silvio: Whoa, keep your voice down
Vito: It was Eugene's going on three years and Eugene was with me
Bobby: He should've never had it to begin with except with the beef with that guy: Junior ruled on it and it wasn't right then
Vito: [irritated by Bobby] This fuckin guy!
Silvio: [to Vito] How much we talking about?
Vito: 3g's a week
Bobby: Maybe that's what that guy admitted to you, I heard 5
Vito: [to Bobby] You heard wrong
Bobby: What do we do here, Sil?
Silvio: [after thinking it over] Here's the thing
Vito: What, skip?
Silvio: For the time being, it's Bobby's... but his still gonna kick up twenty percent to you
Vito: How long is for the time being?
Bobby: Yeah, Sil?
Silvio: [to both of them] What, you speak Norwegian? For now

- Motherfucker.
- What?
- Nothing.

- What are those, tic tacs?
- I just found them.
- I didn't know I had them on me.
- Give me some!
- There ain't no more. I ate them.
- I'm dying here!
- Then fucking die already.
- Where you going?
- I'm eating those berries.
- I'm telling you, they're poison.
- At least I won't die hungry.

- He's dropping a.J. Off later.
- This is the last thing
- I need to get into right now.
- Oh, please, he never had it so good.
- Well, that's him.
- You two should talk. Let me just pee.
- Okay.

- When you did the same, you got forgiven.
- Think about it. There's a difference.
- Don't call me.
- Mr. X, can you play chess?
- No.
- I can. My daddy taught me.

Christopher: You remember that Princess Di? You think the Royal Family, uh, had her whacked?
Paulie: Heh, heh. Last time I take a fuckin' limo in Paris.
Christopher: Like you were ever in Paris, Paulie.
Paulie: I went over for a blow job. Your mother was working the bon-bon concession at the Eiffel Tower.
[to Silvio]
Paulie: Sil, did you hear what I told him? Told him "I went over for a blow job. Your mother was working the bon-bon concession at the Eiffel Tower."

- Yeah, are you ready to go on the ride with mama?
- Are you ready? Get ready.
- Yeah, we're gonna go soon.
- Oh, here we go!
- All around the floor.
- Wipe that puss off your face.

- For days.
- Bobby took advantage of him last night when Tony had had too much to drink.
- There is no excuse for the way
- Bobby blindsided him.
- Tony is not a vindictive man.
- What did I say?

- So...
- Turns out my uncle zio's going downhill.
- The day we met, I told you, we were there at the cemetery to Bury his wife.
- My aunt concetta.
- Seventy years they were together.
- Poor guy's taking it very hard.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: All right, spit it out. Whenever I bring her up, you get this weird puss, and then you ask me, "does she seem happy?" like maybe she's not. Or, "does she remind you of somebody?" with that weird puss on, like you don't like it. "Our mo fo" or whatever the fuck you call our relationship!

- You gotta snap out of this, Caitlin.
- Maybe you need to talk to somebody.
- Yeah, well, I'm already taking those buspar pills.
- Well, maybe that's not enough.
- Where are you going?
- To the library.

- That much of Dell computer bought in 1989 is worth 5 million today.
- We don't have that kind of money on hand right now.
- Things are tight.
- Don't you read the papers?
- The economy.
- Well, it sounded like a wonderful opportunity.
- What are you gonna do, huh?

- The one with the peaked roofs, you're right, cuse.
- When they were auctioning off the last truck...
- And I wanted it as a souvenir...
- Gotti outbid me.
- Gave me a ride home.
- You know, he rang that bell the whole way home?

Paulie: [commenting on the Bada-Bing dancer's Christmas outfit] Heh, I fucked a girl wearing a Santa hat once. It was too distracting. I kept losin' my hard-on.

- So I called another accountant.
- And?
- Frankly, when he heard your husband was the defendant...
- He demurred as well.
- So, what does this mean, you don't want the case?
- Well, as my partners reminded me,
- I do have a full caseload already.
- I probably should've mentioned...

Tony: [Driving in car] So what's goin' on with you?
A.J. Soprano: Nothin'.
Tony: Nothin. You know, that 'No God' shit. That upsets your mother very much.
A.J. Soprano: It's not 'No God'. It's 'God is dead.'
Tony: Who said that?
A.J. Soprano: [Misspeaks] Nitch. He's a 19th century philosopher from Germany. Anyway, that's why I'm not getting confirmed.
Tony: Enough with that shit, alright? Your confirmation's comin' up this weekend and you ARE gettin' confirmed!
A.J. Soprano: That sucks my nut!
Tony: [Lightly slaps AJ with the back of his hand] Ay! You got a lotta balls, you know that? You go to Catholic school and your mother wants it!
A.J. Soprano: Yeah, what does she know?
Tony: She knows that even if God IS dead, you're still gonna kiss his ass!

Neil: [to the Judge at Tony's hearing] your Honor, the police pulled over some kid and found a baggy with cocaine residue. They also found a gun loaded with hollow point bullets on the floor. Now in order to beat the wrap this sixteen year old punk claims he saw my client drop that weapon and mind you not yesterday but over two years ago. Using it to shoot at cans and impress his friends

Carmela: [when Tony returns home] I thought you were at Raymond's birthday dinner?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: left early
Carmela: nice to be home: there's chicken parm. Was Christopher there?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: no
Carmela: 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: do you think there was somebody else?
Carmela: [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

- It's Meadow.
- I don't know, we think maybe she ran off to Europe.
- Europe?
- Yeah.
- So you got a minute?
- Who's that?
- Nobody, go back to sleep.
- Oh, hey, sil.
- How you doing, hon?

- Flush.
- You motherfucker.
- You slow-rolled me.
- What were you doing to that hand?
- His money's good. He wants to sail, it's his business.
- Fuck you too.
- I should've stayed with my goomar tonight.
- Hey, cheese fuck, get me some food.

- But still decisive enough for a grope in the closet.
- Yeah. Something like that.
- Oh, shit! That's all I need.
- We were speeding?
- I wasn't looking.
- Pull over.

- Baby, how are you?
- Is Tatiana here?
- I'll go get her.
- You are Jimmy?
- Yeah, that's right, I'm Jimmy.
- My man!
- Big tits, little feet.
- A hit in any man's league.
- Have a seat.

Tony: So, I saw my uncle Jun, he says hello
Fran: [surprised] Junior? Jesus, how's he doing?
Tony: I don't know if you know it, he was always a little hot for you
Fran: He was practically a stalker
Tony: He said he suffered in silence
Fran: [doubtful] Suffered in silence? He used to sulk outside my building at all hours: weird phone calls. I always had a hunch he'd tell Livia about me and Johnny
Tony: Jesus Christ
Fran: She was a handsome woman, your mother, not sexy exactly but statuesque

Rosalie: [while in the hospital cafeteria] I'll be glad to sit with Tony
Carmela: Hospital rules: it's only family for now but thank you. Angie phoned, I guess she's very busy over there with her body shop?
Rosalie: [after AJ walks up to their table, jokingly, implying AJ resembles the Italian-American fashion model] Oh, look who's here, Fabio, I'm available
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: [to his mother] So, what, now there's actual roaster of who and when stays with dad and I'm not on it?
Carmela: Frankly, I don't think you'd be interested
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: I was sick and I've been trying to study, which is what everyone is usually hassling me about twenty-four, seven. I guess there always has to be something right?
Carmela: Come here and sit down, ok?
Carmela: [when AJ ignores his mother and walks away] Studying? He goes clubbing in New York
Rosalie: You cut him too much slack: you still protect him
Carmela: I know he avoids Tony because he can't face seeing him like that, it frightens him
Rosalie: [adamantly] It frightens everybody, he should get a pass? Kids his age are getting blown up in Iraq
Carmela: you know what's interesting? Janice noticed when AJ talks about Tony possibly not coming out of this, he can't even use the word Dad, he says Anthony Soprano is not going to die.
Rosalie: [sarcastically] Well, that's a fascinating psychological nugget but it don't change the fact if that kid don't pull his end in this, his never gonna forgive himself and nobody else should either
Carmela: It's just that Tony has always loomed so large for AJ
Rosalie: Well, maybe AJ is just a selfish kid that don't give a shit?
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?
Carmela: The thing is Tony has an open incision. If you are there when they change the dressing, it's very hard to take, I don't know if AJ should see that?

[Sighs] It could be better.
- The summers down there...
- We were ignoring the negatives.
- It's fucking brutal with the bugs.
- Tony and silvio, all they understand is appearances.
- We'll buy a new car.
- It'll raise my profile.
- You watch, I'll make captain.

- Tony?
- You got anything to drink?

Christopher: [Referring to Tony] Fuck this piece of shit. You hear me? I'm done. Put my life on the line. My fuckin' life!
Adriana: Baby, I hate seeing you like this.
Christopher: Fuck family, fuck loyalty. You cost them a dime; you're fuckin' done. I gave that fuck pieces of my soul, Adriana. You know what he said to me? He said I should have a fuckin' drink.
Adriana: When?
Christopher: Up there, when we were at Uncle Pat's farm.
Adriana: Well, you don't need to listen to him, isn't that why you have a sponsor?
Christopher: Him and Tony B, breaking my balls. Teasing me like when I was little. I mean what kind of fucked up undermining shit to tell someone who's got the disease? You know I could take that fat fuck out in a second. BANG! His kids wouldn't even give a fuck.
Adriana: Don't talk like that. You're a better man than he is. You're a better person.
Christopher: Fuck all this shit with Paulie and all. You know what hurts me the worst? Right to my heart. Him and our ass wipe cousin. That two faced cock sucker. He could get all of us killed with New York and him, Tony has to think about what to do with him now. After all this shit. Me? He don't need to fuckin' think. Well maybe I need to think? Ever thought of that? You fat fuckin' scumbag!

Tony: How was he?
- Fine.
- Same.
- So any news?
- No.

Bobby: Ya, fuckin' greaseball, ya. C'mon, c'mon. Any more smart remarks?
Petey: No Mr. Bacala! Please, please! No more!
Bobby: [shoots Petey]

Paulie: [referring to the incident with Valery] so, we open the trunk, this suffocating Russian cocksucker pops up: his still alive
Christopher: [after they all laugh] we lead him through the snow, this asshole's shivering. I mean his wearing fuckin pajamas and slippers in like eight-degree weather
Christopher: [continuing the story and the sound of a gun, after Tony greets them and leaves] anyway, he starts running, the Russian. Boom! I'm telling you the top of his head came off like a fuckin bad rug
Paulie: what a beating we had to give this prick
Vito: where's he now, do you think?
Paulie: who the fuck cares, right Chrissy?
Christopher: who the fuck knows?
Vito: [referring to Valery] poor bastard
Christopher: never would've happened if Paulie hadn't initially "overacted" but it's one for the books
Paulie: what'd you mean "overreacted?"
Christopher: you choked him with the guy's lamp, Paulie, we could've got Silvio's money without having to spend the night in the fuckin open
Paulie: [clarifying the details to everybody, referring to Christopher] he let him jab him with the shovel was the problem: he let his guard down
Christopher: we would've caught up to the prick, if you didn't lose your fuckin shoe
Vito: Paulie, you lost your shoe? You didn't tell us about that
Christopher: [impersonating Paulie pleading] "Chrissy please, don't leave me out here."
Paulie: you little cocksucker
Christopher: I covered your ass with Tony about that whole "thing" and never a word of fuckin thanks: ever!
Paulie: who's playing the "blood relations" card? Tony's "little favorite"
Christopher: fuck you!

Paulie: [in the dinning area of Nuovo Vesuvio] "In the midst of death, we are in life", huh? Or is it the other way around?
Meadow: I think it's the other way around.
Paulie: Either version, you're halfway up the ass.

- in the water.
- Brain dead.
- Poor kid's in one of those padded wheelchairs now.
- Oh.
- I can't get that story out of my mind.
- I don't know why.

- But Tony says he's gonna hire a detective.
- Look at this.
- Two of you were so cute.
- Well, even then my cannoli was bigger than his.
- Oh, stop.
- Oh, man, there he is.

- The whole family was laughing.
- My mother was laughing.
- Any other loving experiences?
- Hey, she's a good woman.
- She put food on the table evely night.
- I'm the ungrateful fuck.
- I come here, complain about her...
- And I let my wife exclude her from my home.

- Hey.
- The rotor on the washing machine broke.
- Carm said I could use yours.
- Clean out the filter this time.
- Disgusting.

- Score some shit and find out what's going on?
- Please!
- Brendan, let's go. Wake up, man.
- The fool leaves his door open.
- I gotta pee.
- Go for it.
- Yo, Einstein, you should have seen me at the hospital. It took three nurses...

- Not seven.
- All right. Done.
- Did you pick up the birthday cake for gin with the marzipan flowers?
- The stuff behind the pool?
- No, an actual fuckin' cake.
- It's her birthday.

- It's better this way.
- He's making the right decision.
- He'll get a place, you'll go and visit.
- It'll be better. You'll see.
- Well, you guys could still get back together maybe?
- Right?
- Yeah. Sure.
- We're still close.

- Who else is behind you?
- Who knows about it?
- I hated seeing you suffer with that writer's block.
- When I saw the ad in the paper...
- I had to get it for your birthday.
- I'm sorry.
- Adrian, I'm sorry!

- Best part is, we'll be 20 minutes from a.C.
- We get a room, freshen up, some Blackjack.
- Fuck that, I gotta eat.
- We'll go to Morton's, have a steak.
- So the day won't be a total loss.
- Things with you and carmela seem to be going well.
- It's the therapy.

Johnny: I want you to sanction a hit on Ralph Cifaretto.
Carmine: What, are you fucking kidding me?
Johnny: He violated my wife's honor.
Carmine: Ralph slept with Ginny?
Johnny: He insulted her. He made a very insensitive joke about her body to some friends of ours.
Carmine: What did he say?
Johnny: [indignant] I have to repeat it? My word's not good enough?
Carmine: Not if you want him clipped over it.

- Uh, Anthony soprano.
- Yeah. I just talked to assemblyman zellman.
- Get him out of here.

Carmela: So Finn, Meadow's telling me your going skiing?
Finn: For four days next week a whole bunch of us: a friend of my dad has a cabin near Montreal. You can ski right onto the trails
Meadow: I saw the pictures, there's this humongous stone fire place
Carmela: Just be careful with all the accidents you read about: Sonny Bono
Tony: How about you Alex? Do you ski?
Alessandra: I used to, my family had a retreat near the Pyrenees
Tony: Pyrenees?
Meadow: Aless is descended from Spanish royalty
Tony: Seriously?
Colin: She's our little princess
Alessandra: My great, great grandmother was a countess
Carmela: [to Meadow] you should've told me you were living with royalty
Tony: My daughter's an Italian princess, does that count? My wife too for that matter
Meadow: There's more chicken if anybody wants?
Tony: Yeah I'll take a little more
Finn: [Including him into the conversation] so AJ, your a junior?
A.J. Soprano: Next year
Finn: Are you looking at any schools yet?
A.J. Soprano: Not really, I'll go to Rutgers I guess
Meadow: Are you passing everything?
A.J. Soprano: I got a C on a paper I did on Billy Budd
Carmela: [Disappointed] A C?
Tony: [to Carmella] he usually gets D's and F's, what's with you today? You ok?
Carmela: You worked so hard on it, why only a C?
A.J. Soprano: I don't know
Finn: Did you like Billy Budd?
A.J. Soprano: It was ok. My teacher said it's a gay book
Carmela: Mr. Wegler? Oh that is ridiculous
Finn: [while Colin and Aless nod] I've heard that before
Carmela: That was written when? The nineteenth century?
A.J. Soprano: Yeah, I didn't even know they had fags back then
Meadow: [Chastising him for saying something offensive] AJ
Tony: [to Colin] no offense
Colin: Oh, I'm not gay
Tony: Your not?
Colin: No
Finn: [Jokingly] I read where they found gay cave drawings in Africa
Alessandra: Really?
Alessandra: [Realizes he was teasing her] shut up
Carmela: This stuff is pervading our educational system, not to mention movies, TV shows

- Get the fuck out my house, motherfuckers!
- Get out and stay out!
- Hey, mister, mister.
- I'll kill you, come around here, bitch.
- Don't come back here no more.
- Get out before we kill your asses, nigga!

- Is that right, wishing her dead?
- Is that being a good son?
- Good son?
- Yeah, a good son. I mean, bad sons...
- Bad sons what?
- They should fucking die.
- That's a fucking disgusting thing to be.
- Your kid, at bard.
- He better be a good son, right?

- So what's that about?
- What do you think it's about?
- Well... ahem...
- It's probably the reason I still come here to hang out with you...
- 'Cause nothing really changes with the therapy part.

Tony: There was a time, Mead, when the Italian people didn't have a lot of options.
Meadow: You mean like Mario Cuomo?
[Tony stares at her]
Meadow: Sorry.
Tony: You know I put food on the table. My father was in it. My uncle was in it. Maybe I was too lazy to think for myself. To consider myself... A rebel. Maybe being a rebel in my family would have been selling patio furniture on route 22.

- Thing is, the Newark facilities manager, he's gonna fix it so we do all the window replacements in the projects.
- I was thinking maybe you should work that.
- I'm honored just to be considered.
- Then we'll see what happens after that, long-term.

Tony: Okay. I need to tell you something and I want you to hear it from me, not from some asshole on the street. About four, five months ago I started seeing a psychiatrist. I was passing out, and they couldn't find nothing. She's been helping me with that... Okay, c'mon, give it to me. Give it to my face. C'mon.
Silvio: Well, I'm sure you did it with complete discretion. And speaking for Pussy, if he's still alive, I'm sure he would agree.
Tony: Business was not discussed, no names were mentioned. Junior knows. He's decided to use it against me. Ask now. 'Cause we're not discussing this again.
Paulie: It's not the worst thing I ever heard. I was seeing a therapist myself about a year ago. I had some issues. Enough said. I learned some coping skills.
Silvio: Look, this thing of ours, the way it's going, it'd be better if we could admit to each other these painful, stressful times. But it'll never fucking happen.
Tony: What about you? You got a problem with this?
Christopher: It's like marriage counseling?
Tony: Yeah. Like that. Sort of, yeah.

- That's Don vittorio.
- You didn't have to leave your house tonight.
- Annalisa, sweetheart, how are you?
- Don vittorio, allow me to present our friend from america.
- Anthony soprano.
- Don vittorio, it's an honor.

Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: [happily to a friend and fellow student] I might be learning disabled!

- Sent her a bottle of shalimar.
- She never mentioned it.
- You should be happy at least, the stent was a complete success.
- Let's not tempt fate by taxing the heart.
- How many migs you shoot down last week?

Carmela: You know, Ma, your son loves you very much. He worries all the time. And he felt bad that you didn't come to the open house. I don't care if you think it's disrespectful, but I want you to cut the drama. It's killing Tony.
Livia: What are you talking about?
Carmela: I'm talking about this. This "poor mother, nobody loves me" victim crap. It is textbook manipulation. And I hate seeing Tony so upset over it.
Livia: I know how to talk to people.
Carmela: I am a mother too, don't forget. You know the power that you have. And you use it like a pro.
Livia: Power? What power? I don't have power! I'm a shut-in!
Carmela: You're bigger than life. You are his mother. I don't think for one second that you don't know what you're doing to him.
Livia: Who me? Me? What did I do?

- Adam and Eve would be running all the time, scared shitless.
- But the Bible says it was paradise.
- You can disagree with Evangelicals, but they're great friends of the Jews because Israel is the holy land.
- You wait.

Tony: [stares at the desert sun] I get it. I get it!

Christopher: [to Martin Scorsese] Marty! "Kundun", I liked it!

FBI: We've had every one of Tony Soprano's phones bugged for four years, but the guy says less than Harpo Marx.

- What?
- Nothing.
- It's just, you send in an old man?
- What's he gonna do, gum him to death?
- Anybody ask for your input?
- No, no, I'm just saying.
- You should let me do it.
- I'll take the guy apart at the joints.
- With him conscious.

Ralph: I represent a group of concerned citizens who are very upset about this protest your "spear heading", no pun intended
Professor: Who do you represent?
Ralph: Italians here in New Jersey, good people "family" people and they asked me to tell you that it's not in your best interest to go through with this fuckin thing
Professor: Well, if you've come here to intimidate me? You don't know much about Indian resolve
Maggie: Del, should I call security?
Professor: No
Ralph: [Showing him a poster of Iron Eyes Cody] you remember this guy?
Professor: Iron Eyes Cody, he was an actor in the movies
Ralph: [Listing some of movies he was in] Son of Paleface, Sitting Bull. Your fuckin poster boy. Part Cherokee, part Cree. Wasn't even a fuckin Indian. Second generation Sicilian from Louisiana named Espera DeCorti
Professor: Well, I think you better leave now
Ralph: The guy's a total fuckin phony, total fugazi but he kept it quiet. Well, we're not going to. You keep up with your bullshit, we're going to go wide with this thing
Professor: Knock yourself out
Professor: [after Ralphie leaves, to his assistant] Jesus Christ is this true? This is a fuckin disaster
Maggie: [Rubs his arm to conform him] chill out. You didn't know about this? It's been on Access Hollywood, E!
Professor: [Interrupts her] this is a major PR boner
Maggie: Del, it's been researched: Cody was definitely a Native American, a total environmentalist
Professor: Are you sure about this?
Maggie: Look Del, I'm one eighth Italian myself
Professor: You are? You never told me that

- Hibernating throughout the winter.

- Yeah.
- Then get the fuck out.
- It doesn't have to be like this.
- How should it be?
- How the fuck should it be?

Benny: [Answers the door after Artie rang it several times late at night] Artie, do you know what time it is?
Artie: We need to talk
Benny: Now? My wife is pregnant, she needs to sleep
Artie: Martina told me about your credit card business, step outside Ben
Benny: [to his wife] I'll be outside a minute honey
Benny: Look, your upset alright? But it's not my fault that little "trick" got greedy

- Eat some tomatoes with no taste.
- I want those kids to have a father.
- They got one. This one.
- Me. Tony soprano.
- And all that comes with it.
- Oh, you prick!

- You let me go, t.
- I asked you. Now it's my fault Artie and Benny got into it?
- This is what I was concerned about,
- Christopher, the loss of focus.
- Look...
- Not many guys have had to make the kind of sacrifice I did.
- How many times you gonna play the Adriana card?

- Well, they had to get it for me.
- There's no real public transport out here.
- But I said no more SUV.
- Well, that's the cool part.
- Twenty-three highway. It's not so bad.

- It's just a bigger version of an emerald ring.
- So you can keep on with your other life.
- You don't know me at all.
- I know you better than anybody, Tony.
- Even your friends.
- Which is probably why you hate me.
- Hate you?
- Well, don't worry,
- I'm going to hell when I die.
- Nice thing to say to a person heading into an mri.

Christopher: Whatever you do, do not engage Silvio in conversation.

Salvatore: [regarding Feech] What did I ever do to this guy?
Paulie: They release these fucks from the can. Obviously, he wasn't rea-bull-ated.

- Being where he's been.
- He hasn't been anywhere.
- Nothing happened.
- I told you that.
- Don't matter.
- He's been there in his mind.
- Ugh. Fine.

Tony: Right.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [Reading a letter from Tony to her psychiatrist, Dr. Kupferberg] I've been thinking, and I apologize for my use of foul language, 'foul' with a "w"... in regards to yourself. You said some very hurtful things to me in regards to myself. But it is still no excuse to use the vile word that I used of which I am sure you know that I'm talking about. You don't wish us to be social friends, and so that is that. I still have great... riggard for you even though you said some horrible things. P.S. I'm doing fine, Anthony.

Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: Un-fuckin'-believable!

- You wanted to see me?
- Yeah, Tony.
- About what?
- About what? You know...
- To apologize.
- Oh.
- Sit down?

- Anyway...
- "When Mr. Claggart gets mad at Billy, it is a surprise...
- Because he is always saying how handsome Billy is.

- If a sailor was handsome or not?"
- Hey, Tony.
- Hey.

- Three hearts and a seven. Queen bets.
- Here.
- Make it a dime.

- This way.
- Wait for me, please.

- Well, did you call Janice?
- I mean, her or Bobby should go.
- I'm all the way out here on a boat.
- They can't do it.
- What do you mean can't?
- I don't know.
- She didn't elaborate.
- It didn't seem like she wanted to.
- Aw, god damn it!
- I'm sorry, Tony.
- All right, all right, all right.

Paulie: [after playing pool] are you wearing a wire?
Christopher: Are you fucking crazy?
Paulie: [to Patsy] pat him down
Christopher: If he fucking touches me...
Paulie: Then make it easy on us all, take everything off.
Christopher: [Christopher takes off his pants]

Christopher: Go fuck yourself
Paulie: Before I was breaking balls now you're beginning to worry me
Christopher: [Christopher takes off his underwear]
Paulie: I guess you can call that a dick
[laughs]

- She was cute, okay, but come on.
- With another guy's kid to boot.
- She was the best thing that ever happened to me.

- Or what?

- But now there was a murder,
- Christopher, and they know about it.
- At the club.
- Matush and some other guy.
- I tried to cover it up.
- But I had no choice.
- They've been filming us in the parking lot.

- You got it?
- Yeah, it's good.
- Regarding Phil, I gotta ask: Whatever happened to
- "stop and smell the roses"?
- You're right. You're right.
- You can't fight every fucking battle, right?
- Asbestos.

Christopher: What do you got to be stressed about? That bar?

- Bobby, come on.

[In the nursing home, where his mother lives]
Paulie: I don't understand. All the money I put in this place, and my mother is getting picked on by the others. I want it stopped.
Nursing: You'll have to excuse these girls. Sometimes they think it's a high school with wheelchairs.

- You don't even know what you're apologizing for.
- It's our anniversary, Tony.
- Ours. Not yours, mine and
- Johnny-fucking-sack's.
- Ours.
- I thought we could get a room at the Plaza like last year or...

- The lord bless her and keep her.
- The lord make his face to shine upon her and be gracious to her.
- The lord lift up his countenance upon her and give her peace.
- Amen.

Phil: [meeting privately, referring to killing Vito, and the derogatory term for homosexuals] you were going to "take care" of that fuckin Finook
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [irritated] oh, for Christ's sake, Vito, again? What the fuck is wrong with you?
Phil: his in town, isn't he? I was over at Marie's the other night, she played the "innocent" but I could tell she's seen him
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [referring to the character played by Johnny Carson as host of The Tonight Show] your fuckin Carnac the Great" now too, huh?
Phil: I gotta tell you, if Vito was here, and you knew about it...
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [ignores him and leaves] fuck this

- They could try me on mail and wire fraud, but they want a major rico.
- Tony. Line two.
- Who is it?
- It's a woman. I think she's crying.
- Let me get back to you.
- Hello.
[Sobbing] Tony.

Mikey: I may be getting bumped up. A notch or two. Tony Soprano's on his way out, and I mean as in forever.
JoJo: Oh my god. He's going to jail?
Mikey: Nah, the other forever.
JoJo: Does Junior know?
Mikey: [chuckles and shakes his head] Oh, jeez.

Ralph: [to Pie-o-My's trainer] And tell that midget not to be shy with the whip.
Hesh: [about Ralph] If only his mother had taken that advice.

Tony: Look, Tony's in hiding, John.
John: You either deliver that prick to my door, or I will rain a shitstorm down on you and your family like you have NEVER fucking seen.
[pause]
John: We're done here.

- Holy Jesus!
- What the fuck you looking at?
- Cal! 9-1-1.
- I don't feel a pulse.
- I'm sorry.
- Thank you, Tony.
- He was a good man. Never said a bad word about anybody.
- Thank you, Tony.

- You won't find any of that.
- I'm reading, I'm lifting weights.
- I know what you think, ton, but you'll see.
- I'm gonna prove myself to you.
- I only chipped that once, on the day with her.

[Chrissy catches Paulie sniffing Adriana's panties]
Christopher: [angry] Motherfucker!
Adriana: What?
Christopher: Nothing.

- You got any wine?
[Speaks Italian] Malanga!

- Papi!
- Papi!
- Papi! Papi!
[Crying ] Papi!
[ Fades ] Papi!

Christopher: You ever think what a coincidence it is that Lou Gehrig died of Lou Gehrig's disease?
[everyone laughs]
Tony: You're gonna make that same stupid joke every time that comes up?

- In your grandmother's house.
- Now he's repeating himself.
- Just lucky I knew that cop.
- So he cut me a favor.
- Let me guess, he owes you money?

- Look what I made that living for.
- You had dinner an hour ago. What the fuck are you doing to yourself!?
- Leave him alone.
- I'm supposed to get a vasectomy when this is my heir?
- Look at him.
- Tony, come back here and apologize!

Christopher: [Talking privately, referring to their cousin Tony B] What's up? You hear from Tony?
Tony: I just talked to Kelvin, Calvin, whatever the fuck his name is. That redneck from North Carolina. He got a call from the Bureau of Alcohol and Tobacco. Some fuckin' bodegas in Newark been selling cigarettes without the tax stamps on them.
Christopher: Stupid spics, they were suppose to stamp it themselves.
Tony: The Feds are all over it. I don't have enough on my fuckin' mind?
Christopher: Any idea on how you're going to handle it?
Tony: Handle what?
Christopher: Our cousin. You know Phil and John?
Tony: I don't know. I got to think about it. From now on Paulie supervises the entire cigarette run. You split everything down the middle with him.
Christopher: What?
Tony: You fuckin' heard me.
Christopher: I got a fuckin' wedding to pay for.
Tony: [Sarcastically] Well, if I were you I'd cut out the open bar.

Tony: [referring to Phil Leotardo, who just insulted Tony's crew and left the room] Was that fuckin' necessary? He shouldn't even have been here!
John: He's got a right to be here. He's got a right to *a lot* of things right now.
Tony: [referring to Tony Blundetto] My cousin acted alone. I did not sanction this.
John: [referring sarcastically to JFK assassination] The "lone gunman" theory.
Tony: You know how close he and Angelo were in the can. He flipped the fuck out!
John: When he whacked Joey Peeps, what flipped him out that time?
Tony: Whaddaya, whaddaya want, John? What do you want me to say?
John: I want your cousin on a FUCKING SPIT!

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Carmela, who the fuck did you think I was when you married me, huh? You knew my father, you grew up around Dicky Moltisanti and your uncle Eddie. Where do you get off acting so surprised and miffed when there are women on the side? You knew the deal.
Carmela: Deal?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: And your mother can talk about what she wants about whats his name and his chain of drug stores. You and I both know that the other boyfriend you were debating marrying was Gerry Tuffie and his father's snow plow buisness. And we now know that that wouldn't of suited you at all.
Carmela: You really don't hear me, do you? You think for me it's all about things.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: No I forced all this shit on you. What you really crave is a Hyundai and a simple gold heart on a chain.
Carmela: You are so fucking hateful.

- I bet.
- You know, I'm glad you decided to write your book in our little town.
- What the fuck you doing?
- What are you, some kind of fag?
- Guess I made a mistake.
- You sure as fuck did.
- Listen, closet queen, you can't handle it... don't send out the signals.

- We're drawing no conclusions.
- But what do you got?
- If I had coffee...
- Cut the quips.
- Tell me about the merger!
- What's to say? Philadelphia's put pressure on the shy business?
- That's been going on since Moses wore short pants.
- Tony's still resisting the Philly overtures?

- I gotta start spending a lot more time on the floor. Crack the whip.
- I'm beat, tell you the truth.
- I think I'm gonna grab 40 winks till patsy gets here.
- Wait, you don't have Chrissy's cell, do you?
- He called, but he didn't leave a new number.
- He'll probably try you again.
- He's due back tomorrow.

- I can't, Jackie.
- What?
- You won't go with me but you'd go with that black guy?
- It's not that I don't want to go.
- I've been hurt.
- Just give me some time, okay?

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You're entitled to shit!

Tony: [angered after hearing Johnny Sack admitted the existence of the mafia by betraying his oath as part of a plea deal, while in Tony's backyard] to think, I thought that piece of shit was my friend once, I hope he dies in there
Silvio: you know how this looks? I wish I was at the court steps to throw acid in his face, just to distance myself
Sal: [before walking up to them] excuse me Tony? I've been meaning to ask you, I was "wondering" about the Sacrimoni place?
Tony: what about it?
Sal: well, now that Mr. Sacrimoni is guilty, you think maybe I could take him off my route?
Tony: what the fuck did you just say Sal?
Sal: [nervously] I don't know
Silvio: fuckin lawnmower man just said John was guilty, T
Tony: he "plead" guilty, Sal, ok?
Sal: yeah, ok
Tony: with this government, no fuckin trial, maybe they stuck tasers on his balls, beat him mercilessly with a rubber hose? You ever think of that?
Sal: no, but of course it makes sense
Tony: don't besmirch the man, Sal
Sal: so, about the yard?
Silvio: [amused, to Tony, referring to Sal] do you believe this fuckin guy?
Tony: [after thinking it over] your done with that

- And you're not giving it a chance.
- You'll see eventually you'll want kids.
- It'll be good.
- I don't want a family with her.
- She's got no idea who I am.
- She "doesn't understand you"?

- I'm just a guy looking to punch you in the mouth.
- Oh, you can take a punch.
- I guess we knew that already, didn't we?
- You can actually land a punch too.
- You're pretty good, huey.
- Nice.
- Against a 36-year-old out-of-shape lieutenant.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Alright just relax, focus on your breathing, slowly
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: It's not that I just...
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: No, please focus. I've got my medical bag in case
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I had a fight with my mother and had a fuckin panic attack
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Ok forget that for now
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Carmella was supposed to come over with some fuckin yarn for booties she was making for Meadow. She was late, oh why the fuck go into it?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Close your eyes, focus on your breathing
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: She was carrying on and I say to her "Carmella loves you, you've got to understand she's got a three month old," she kept going on and I started screaming at her so I left. I went over to the car then boom and cut my fuckin head open
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: And your cousin doesn't know this?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: No I lied. What am I going to tell them? I had a fight with my mother and fainted? That's why I missed the job. Jesus fuckin Christ!
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: That's a lot to get off your chest
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I thought I was smart and that's why I bumped him up to protect him, it turns out I'm just a robot to my own pussy-ass weakness
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: His also a capable person
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You know sometimes what happens in here is like taking a shit.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Yes. Ok. Although I prefer to think of it as childbirth.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Trust me. It's like taking a shit.

Bobbi: Why the big secret?
Corrado: About what?
Bobbi: Oral sex. What's so terrible about pleasing a woman?
Corrado: You always have to talk about everything.
Bobbi: Well, I wanna know why.
Corrado: It's complicated.
Bobbi: Yeah, but why?
Corrado: Why? Because they think if you suck pussy you'll suck anything.
Bobbi: Oh, you're kidding.
Corrado: It's a sign of weakness and possibly a sign that you're a finook.
Bobbi: [chuckles] A fag? That's ridiculous. How would the two even translate?
Corrado: What are ya gonna do? I mean, I don't make the rules.

Christopher: [Referring to Jackie Jr] Little mother fucker, his going Tony. His going big time
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You sure it was Jackie Jr.?
Christopher: I find him, I'm doing him tonight
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: No, your not
Christopher: Why not?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Because I said so
Christopher: Why?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I don't have to explain nothing to you
Christopher: Because his Jackie Aprile's kid? Your not going to let this go. You can't do that, he took a shot at me. He tried to kill Furio, we're "made."
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Every person you whack, you risk exposure. Major murders: it's what the Feds ask for Christmas
Christopher: Bullshit, your a fuckin hypocrite
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: The fuck you just say?
Christopher: You preach all this wise guy shit and meanwhile the only ones that got to play by rules are us. I loved you
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: What happens is what I decide not you. Now you don't love me anymore that breaks my heart but it's too fuckin bad because you don't got to love me, but you will respect me

Junior: [referring to the low number of people attending Jackie Jr.'s wake at Nuovo Vesuvio] Look at this crappy turnout, you know if Jackie Sr. was still Acting Boss, with a child passed away, this place would be filled to the rafters: flowered cars up and down the block, no matter what the boy had done
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Bobby says you're out from under the house arrest, congratulations
Junior: My fuckin lawyer was finally able to demonstrate I'm not a "flight risk". Flight risk? I've been farting into the same sofa cushion for the last eighteen months, my RICO trial is coming up
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: At least you're out and can eat regular food again
Junior: Fuckin illness changed my whole view point. I'm gonna "stop and smell the roses"
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: We all should, I mean what the fuck?

- FBI! Open up!
- FBI!
- Oh, my god!
- I'm the gardener! I'm the...

- You know, things might be a little different, Paulie...
- If you could accept some responsibility for a change.
- You're a wormy cocksucker, you know that?
- I'm just telling you how you're being fucking perceived!
- Just worry about how you're fucking perceived!
- Nobody knows what the future holds, my friend.

- Fuckin' stroll in.
- I'm over here bustin' my fuckin' ass!
- You fuckin' crazy?!
- Work in your fuckin' laundry, all fuckin' day!
- Fuckin' scam artist.
- Fuck.

- So, ira, who's the lucky guy?
- Jeremy silverman. Puppeteer.
- Children's television workshop.
- Father's Asa silverman. Head of commercial paper at Goldman sachs.
- Upper East Side.
- I didn't get my invitation.
- Fuck you.

- I don't need your permission.
- It's not permission, it's just an idea.
- You know what?
- Fine, I'll hang up.
- Well if the trip is as bland as this phone call.
- There's nothing going on.
- What do you want me to say to you, seriously?

- Yeah.
- Tony here?
- Yeah, come on in.
- Hey.
- Let me know if you guys need anything.
- You gonna tell me about the traffic again?
- Here, our friend sent this for you.

- Paulie! Christopher!
- First place I hit is Denny's.
- I know. Get like five of those grand slam breakfasts.
- Shit!
- What's the matter?
- Fucking thing's loose already.

- Remains the de facto boss of the north Jersey mob.
- Soprano, seen here in an FBI surveillance photo with...
- Family associate
- "big pussy" bompensiero...
- Was the target of a murder attempt...
- Jesus Christ! How come every piss I take is a fucking news story?
- Oh.

- Oh that's right, you and her...
- How'd that all go?
- I had to put her on the shelf.
- Yeah, she's a friend of kaisha, the black one I was tellin' you about.
- She was just now asking what to get kaisha for her birthday.
- What'd you tell her?
- Luther vandross, a box set.

- There's a million ways, but this'll work.
- It was gigi's idea,
- I'm not cutting his balls off.
- Sally's Mia. Two days ago he reaches out to bacala for help.
- Old man bacala's his godfather, he can get close without arousing suspicion.
- Doesn't sit right.
- He's done it before.
- He's a sick man!
- It's something to live for.

- The super bowl returns...
- How much? A dime? You got it.
- We're writing a lot of slips on this game.
- I'm going to the betting parlor.

Tony: [in a high class restaurant] You said you wanted to be a lawyer for black people.
Meadow: Oh, that's all I said? Really? What I said was "The state can crush the individual."
Tony: New Jersey?
Meadow: The government. Specifically, the federal government.
Tony: And what about little babies? They face, uh, meningitis.
Meadow: You know what really turned me? Seeing the way Italians are treated. It's like Mom says. And if we can have our rights trampled like that, imagine what it's like for recent arrivals.
Tony: Well...
Meadow: If I hadn't seen you dragged away all those times by the FBI, then I'd probably be a boring suburban doctor.

- You wanted to see me?
- Adriana okay?
- She's fine.
- People who don't clean up after their pets.
- Pop this in that basket for me, will you?

- And for all the times I came on like an asshole, I'm very sorry.
- You've got my number if you change your mind.
- And if you begin to feel any of the old feelings, you need to call me.
- No.
- So, what's customary?
- I mean, we shake hands? What?
- How about a diamond pin?

- She was a beautiful, innocent creature.
- What'd she ever do to you?
- You fucking killed her.
- You killed her, you fucking killed her.

- You know, douche bag,
- I realize I'm dreaming.
- I got no opinion one way or the other.
- Anybody mind?
- What?
- Where we going?
- Driving you to the job.

- When do we want them?
- Now!
- Get out of the way!
- When do we want them?
- Now!
- We want to talk to the foreman.
- Talk to the foreskin?
- You a wise-ass motherfucker.
- Keep your mother off the streets and I won't fuck her.

- You know the allocution is always part of it, practically the whole point.
- I'll take it.
- That ira of Ginny's...
- She worked the tie counter at wanamaker's.
- That's where we met.

- Promise me, no drinking and driving.
- Who's your designated driver?
- I'm not the one with all the dents in their car.
- All right. Have fun, huh?
- You need some money?
- Have a good time, sweetheart.
- Be careful.

- Who's that speaking?
- Is somebody speaking?
- Listen, Richie.
- Let me think about this. But we can't be too fucked up by this setback.
- We gotta screw our courage to the post.
- You're a good boy, Richie.
- It's gonna be good.
- Go on home. We'll talk.

- I don't understand.
- Dad wasn't a spy?
- No.
- With this jet lag,
- I can't sleep.
- I'm doing darks if you have any.
- Have a great day at work.

- Ralph cifaretto drove down to Philadelphia last Thursday.
- Had a couple of guys with him.
- You know who was in the car?
- No.
- You ever heard the name
- "cogo, Giovanni"?
- Giovanni?
- No.

Sungyon: So, Blondino. Why you fuck me like this?
Tony: Fuck you talking about? I got a whole leg coated with neosporin, I just spent an hour with the cops, explaining how it went down.
Sungyon: I don't forget you professional criminal.
Tony: Lemme ask you something. If I really wanted to rob you, you think I'd have to put up with *this* bullshit?
Sungyon: Well just so you know.
[opens desk drawer revealing a gun]
Tony: I didn't take your truck. I lost my study guide, my fucking flash cards. I'm sick of this fucking prejudice against ex-cons.
Sungyon: I never hire you if I no need Tony Soprano for union! Not for him, I show you the fucking window!

- I swear to god,
- I didn't touch your place, Artie.
- My mother was confused.
- Look me in the eye.
- Tell me you didn't lay a finger on my place!
- I didn't burn down your restaurant.
- I swear on my mother.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Do you have any qualms about how you actually make a living?
Tony: Yeah. I find I have to be the sad clown: laughing on the outside, crying on the inside.

- Tony?
- Paulie... bacala... we'll be...
- Ton, I can't hear you.
- Motherfucking cocksucker!
- That Tony? What'd he say?
- I don't know.

- If your enemy comes into possession of your nail, or your hair clippings, they can make the evil on you.
- I'm flattered you wouldn't trust me with your toenails, but can I pass without ruining the moment?
- I already burned them.
- Nobody gets them.

- Do you feel better about coming here?
- What?
- Is it permissible now?
- Is it enough of a sad tragedy that you can join the rest of the douche bags?
- I was talking to him a couple days ago.
- Yes, he was a wonderful man.
- We're here for you, Barbara.

- Usually happens when we touch on a nerve.
- He was distressed about this young man's death in the garbage compactor.
- See, he didn't say garbage compactor, did he?
- See?
- What do you believe?
- You know his job.
- He reports to a strip club.
- Who knows how he spends his days?

- You should be riding high after what you did on the field today. Come on!
- Wanna play some Nintendo? You and me?
- When are you gonna throw that thing out the freaking window?
- Why?
- Well, all right. Play Nintendo.
- Okay, let's go to Stewart's.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Ralph: [refusing to loan Artie money after he asked for it] I hate to do it, Artie. But I think I'm going to pass.
Artie: Why not?
Ralph: Cause if you don't pay me back, I ain't gonna be able to hurt ya.

Tony: You bitch and you moan, and you blame everybody else for your problems. Instead of maybe not letting the Mexicans do all the cooking for you, or maybe changing the menu, or changing the decorum.
Artie: I guess because you know how to eat, you know how to run a restaurant.
Tony: On one of the bleakest nights of my life, after the shit with my mother, and that fucking storm outside, I came here. To this place. I sat out there with Carm and my two kids and we ate and we drank and we were so happy to be here. More than any other place in the world. And you know I'm gonna eat here til I fall off the chair. But in business sometimes shit happens, the playing field changes, whatever. And you gotta do whatever you gotta do to keep your dick up.
Artie: If you hate it here so much, why don't you go Don Giovanni. See if he'll cook you that bland shit for your shattered pancreas.
Tony: [pauses] Alright, I'll tell you one thing. And this is very hard. Nobody wants to hear you talk. They're trying to eat out there, and you come along, with your corny jokes, and your stupid stories. Just stay in the kitchen. That'd be a start.

[Meadow reproves her cousin for making careless accusatory comments about how Jackie Jr. died]
Meadow: Our dads are in the garbage business, and it's always good for a laugh. And, yeah, they brush up against organised crime. But, do you think they control every slime ball and illegal gun in like a hundred communities? The fact that you would even say this in front of an outsider is amazing to me! Jesus Christ, some loyalty?

- Burt wasn't speaking for just himself.
- Guys are getting squeezed hard to sway them towards new management.
- They thought you'd be a part of it.
- And he got an answer.
- My hope is maybe now
- Phil gets the message.
- You know, we can talk this shit through.
- Talk?

- We were upstate, monticello.
- We'd heard Kelly had been living with some fucking crackhead up there.
- Matter of fact, we were gonna reach out to you.
- See if you could get some of your people on her.
- I swear on my mother, Tony, if I find out you're lying...
- I'm sitting here humbling myself out of friendship to you, John.

- How long's for the time being?
- Yeah, sil.
- What, do you speak nonnegian?
- For now. We'll see how much is there.
- Hi, everyone.
- My god, you poor thing.
- Hey, we just need some Irish spring.
- Good morning.

Paulie: [repeated line, when greeting someone or several people] What'd ya hear? What'd ya say?

- Tony turned me on to him.
- "Tzu, tzu."
- "Sun tzu," you fucking ass-kiss.
- Hey.
- Feech.
- You know, I missed you by two weeks at allenwood.

- So it's 500 for the hour,
- 300 for half.
- And if you wanna keep skiing, that's extra.
- All right, Eden, how's about 400 for 40 and four more lines and then we'll take it from there?
- That'll work.

- He was a captain, t.
- He was the biggest earner.
- You gonna lecture me now?
- You fucking drug addict.
- Not me.
- But other people are gonna wonder.

Tony: [Referring to his father] I don't fuckin live with my mistress. I mean his fuckin slippers?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Go on
Tony: When I left there, I started thinking about it: when I was sixteen years old I came home from school and there was this note from my aunt Quinn. My mother became pregnant, another kid after my sister Barbra "change of life" baby they called it. She started bleeding and I was supposed to find my father and get him over there ASAP. I called every number I had. I left messages all over town then finally ten o'clock at night he called me back. He came and got me the next morning. We went to the hospital, walked into her room. She could've fuckin died from a miscarriage, fuck her
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Was there any blame on his part? This man you emulate? The lies? The betrayals with other women?
Tony: [Remains silent]
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Listen to me, this is very important, your mother had her faults but after all this time what should we do with this woman? Burn her at the stake? You need to forgive her and move on
Tony: [Realizes she's right by changing the subject] she made my father give my dog away
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I thought your father was a big tough guy?
Tony: He probably he didn't want to hear her bullshit anymore, gave my dog away to his girlfriend's kid, big fuckin deal, if it was up to her, she would've had it killed

- Two days before the super bowl and nobody shows up.
- That's not true.
- You'd think I'd remember, all my years married to Jack.
- What happened, ton?
- Vegas moving the line?
- Just make sure.
- Point and a half.

- "Mild concussion," he said.
- Told me I'd be okay.
- That's it. I'm coming out there.
- My mother's over here anyway.
- She can stay with the kids.
- No, don't do that.
- Are you telling me everything?

- So now you can quickly and easily trim and tone the hips and thighs.
- What, are you up?
- Cosette, go to your basket.
- What's the matter with you?
- Because I'm glad to see you.
- I worry about you staying out so late.
- Since when?
- You hungry?
- Want some scrambled eggs?
- Yeah, all right.

Paulie: [while in his car, after seeing Christopher leave a motel room with a prostitute] your not even married yet, your "dipping" into whores already
Christopher: It didn't cost me a quarter. I didn't pay for it, how'd you find me?
Paulie: You better be careful. If I can do it, so can your bride to be
Christopher: So, what is this? Some new rule on who I fuck? You want more shoes? What?
Paulie: No, funny thing is they don't even fit her. I don't know why I thought she was a size ten
Christopher: I don't know either
Paulie: I'm here to tell you one thing: you ever go whining to the big man again about shit between you and me, then we'll have a problem my friend

[Paulie is getting a manicure]
Paulie: [to manicurist] Let's go with the satin finish.

Junior: and did my nephew say where I'm "allowed" to move the coke?
Richie: he don't give a shit about nobody but himself: this country is going through "boom times", there's more fuckin garbage than there ever was and he wouldn't let me eat
Junior: you want to cry money problems? I'm facing twenty years, I could die in there
Bobby: your gonna beat it Skip
Junior: [raises his voice to Bobby] you don't fuckin know that
Junior: [to Richie] that coke is my lifeline right now
Richie: break it down: what choice does he leave us?
Junior: [referring to killing Tony] you need allies to do what you're thinking about
Richie: Albert Barese didn't like what he was hearing and by extension, Larry Barese: the biggest fuckin crew in the family
Junior: that doesn't surprise me: Larry has had just as much time as me to think about why his under indictment and some other people "ain't"
Richie: what do you want me to do?
Junior: go talk to Ally boy "feel" him out but his a "slippery" fuck... don't " commit"
Richie: [to Bobby and Junior before leaving] I'll see ya

- I'm fucking gornisht in Asa's eyes now.
- Can't you do anything?
- I mean, make some calls?
- That shit's insured.
- He's obsessed with that car.
- This fucking stew guy.
- The asshole paid a $30,000 premium just to place the fucking order.
- His glasses, his daybook were in it.

- And in the past,
- I might havejumped.
- Like I said, I'm engaged.
- And things are going well.
- I think for once in my life,
- I will exercise a little self-control.
- Thanks for the drink.

- Come on, let's go, let's go!
- Let's go!
- Go ahead, detective.
- Excuse me, move it out, please.
- Got a police officer here.
- Move it out! Let's go! Pull up!
- Police vehicle! Coming through!

- Lucky for me, those last years
- I was in the can, my kid brother Billy took care of Patty and the grandkids.
- Only to have that motherfucking animal blundetto...
- Don't do it to yourself, Philly.
- It's hard to forget.
- I don't forget.

- You know...
- You have these thoughts, and you almost grab it.
- And then:

- Bobby.
- Go down by the cellar door, see if murf left the envelope under the flagstone.
- He wouldn't have been around today.
- I'll go look later.
- Do it now. Is that asking so much?
- I just went through the trial of my life.

- See, that's what I want to avoid.
- So when my girl comes down, you say it was nice to meet me.
- Then you'll take her to school and say goodbye.
- Let's see the garden state.
- We're gonna drop by hunter's.
- I want her to meet Noah.
- Later, dad.

- Let's set you up.
- What?
- I got money.
- With how much you listen to the radio, you'd be good.
- I can't believe it.
- But I get to pick what you wear.
- Dress you up. I like that.

- Listen...
- Thanks for doing this.
- You didn't have to.
- Fuck that. You're my little cousin.

- Tony?
- Anthony.
- Which you wanna see?
- This...
- Or this?

- Right now?
- Hey, Tony.
- Yeah, yeah, take it easy.
- Take it easy. Take a walk.
- Get some air.
- Take it easy.
- Take a walk outside.
- Take it easy.
- All right, everybody.
- Take it easy. Take it easy.
- Come on.

Corrado: [to Warren] I saw your girl today at pet therapy. How she keep her coat so shiny?

Carmela: [about A.J] Oh, I didn't tell you. He spent $200 on a set of CDs that teach Arabic.
Tony: Jesus Christ, c'mon! Shish-kabob. What else do ya need to know?

- What's going on?
- Come on.

- Hold on.
- I have to take this. My lawyer.
- The only way you could have her is if you killed the man.
- I know this.
- Eh, so? Don't be an idiot.

- See ya.
- Here he comes.
- God bless you, St. elzear.
- Where's his gold hat?

Tony: [to Christopher as he walks up to their table in front of Satriale's, referring to their predetermined time to meet] Hey, I said four o'clock.
Christopher: The fuck? I leave before the stock market closes, you yell at me for not watching the phone guys.
Tony: [to Christopher as he gestures to Richie] Meet Richie Aprile.
Christopher: [to Richie] Jesus Christ, how're you doing? Your brother was like a fucking god, great leader! I also heard a lot about you.
Richie: Yeah, and I heard a lot about you. That's why I'm here.
Christopher: What do you mean?
Richie: [referring to Tony] Out of respect for our "friend" here, I'm gonna talk nice. You ever raise your hand to my niece again, next time you won't see my face. You understand?
Christopher: Who told you I put my hand on her?
Richie: [to Tony] is this kid getting jerky with me?
Tony: [Tony Soprano shakes his head]
Richie: Look kid, I shouldn't have to explain myself. I'm from the "old-school". You wanna raise your hand, you give her your last name. Then it's none of my fuckin' business. Until then, keep your hands in your pockets. We understand each other? Now get outta here, I wanna talk to Tony.
Tony: [to Christopher, after Christopher and Richie shake hands] Go ahead.

Christopher: [Talking to each at other in the restaurant] my heart's still pounding
Paulie: You're doing real good year with the sports book
Christopher: Yeah it's been good
Paulie: I'm going to give it to you, it's yours
Christopher: I was wondering when it was going to be
Paulie: The only thing is: there's a 6 grand minimum every week. I've got to get something out of this, but 6 grand, that can be a lot or a little, it all depends on you and how much business you bring in
Christopher: I love you Paulie, we're in it together now
Paulie: I love you too kid

Rusty: You can't stayed holed up in here, it's not healthy Carmine.
Carmine Lupertazzi Jr.: How'd it get to this? Retaliation, counter attacks.
Rusty: We back down, broke it down, what kind of a message does that send?
Eddie: Not just to Johnny's people either.
Carmine Lupertazzi Jr.: Billy Leotardo what the hell was that?
Eddie: This Blundetto asshole went "off the reservation."
Rusty: With all due respect Carmine that's why you need to get out there. Put your ear to the street, let the guys see you take the reigns.
Carmine Lupertazzi Jr.: That's not how I want to handle it.

- I did?
- I'll come back next week. No problem.
- She can have my appointment.
- It is hard getting away from work.
- See?
- I could see you tonight at 7?
- Yeah, yeah. Thanks.
- How hard was that?

- Let's talk about my daughter.
- Principal says girls in sports do better.
- They don't take drugs or get knocked up.
- But now this shit.
- If my daughter ever tried to kill herself...
- Oh, god!

Carmela: so, dad, how does dinner at Vesuvio sound for your birthday next week?
Mary: just us, we'll come here first for presents and then we'll go over there
Hugh: [smiles] sure, sure, that sounds fine
Carmela: did "somebody" tell you "something"?
Hugh: I know all about it: you can save the cloak-and-dagger
Mary: [assuming he spoiled the surprise] AJ?
A.J. Soprano: huh, what?
Hugh: Junior Soprano told me all about it
Carmela: that miserable fucking man
Mary: ugh
Carmela: you don't know the half of it
Hugh: relax, I'm fine with knowing. In my age, it's a "surprise" to be able to get out of bed every morning. So, who's coming to the shindig?
Carmela: God damn him!
Mary: all of us: your brother Lester, Dr. Fegoli
Hugh: Russ Fegoli? His in town?
Mary: he retired from the Foreign Service

Tony: You're a Smurf for 10 to 15 years, then you die, shitting in your pajamas.

- Are you crying?
- What's the matter?
- I don't know. Just look at it.

- I'm looking at half a rock.
- What's it all for, though, Tony, huh?
- What we put in, the grind.
- Isn't that for things like this?
- Yeah.
- So I heard Phil came to see you.
- Let's go say hello to your dad.

- Answering machine.
- What are you gonna do?
- These doctors, it's not like on TV.
- Dr. Kennedy, this is Tony soprano, corrado's nephew.
- My cell phone is 917-555-0157.
- Call me back anytime day or night.
- It's important.
- Batter up.

- So I hear Artie bucco came to see you.
- Who is Artie?
- Friend of mine from elementary school.
- He owns a restaurant.
- They had a little fire in it.
- Came to see me? Where?
- Where are we talking about?
- Here?

- Walking alone again.
- What, I'm gonna wait for vito?
- Hour and a half to take a dump, that guy.
- Could build a jetty with what comes out.

- All I know about this guy is he drives a livery cab, and he wasn't very nice to someone important to me.
- Don't think another thing about this.
- I'll find him, I'll kick the shit out of him.
- No, no, no, I'm gonna do this.
- This motherfucker's mine.

- Oh, Tony, I hate to ruin the party.
- Got a call from loiaco down at brokerage.
- "Chip and Dale" sent one of the brokers...
- To the emergency room.
- Oh, fuck me! These kids!
- My fucking nephew, right?
- You call him and tell him
- I want to see him right away.

- Television?
- No, the history channel.
- I think you'd like it.
- They even do a lot of that Bible shit.
- Only shit in the Bible came out of pharaoh's ass...
- When Moses parted the red sea.
- Parted the red sea, praise his name.
- Never underestimate a man's determination to be free.

- As, say, someone like...
- John Grisham nowadays.
- But wordsworth writes: "The world is too much with us."
- Later, he invokes nature again.
- Why such strong words against the material world?

- One thing led to another, we started dating each other and...
- Carmela, I slept with him.
- You slept with Tony?
- Really, it wasn't for me.
- Carmela, what I'm trying to say is, stop worrying about me.
- Really. I mean, we both made our choices. I'm fine with mine.

- Oh, right.
- Wow, cool.
- So I guess I'll see you.
- Or maybe next week, here.
- Wait. You wanna go for coffee?
- Well... okay.
- Wanna follow me to that dive on sip and jfk?

Tony: What'd you wanna talk about?
Richie: Fuckin' Dick Barone!
Tony: Well, as long as the two of you are happy!

[to AJ]
Livia: It's all a big nothing. What what makes you think you're so special?

- So where's your friend, you know?
- Valery?
- Who knows?
- He gave silvio the money? I told him.
- Don't know, I wasn't there.
- Salut.

- What?
- I'm on a 9 am. Flight to Miami.
- I have to get things in line down there.
- John...
- You think I'm gonna give you ammazz with Ginny upstairs?
- If you don't hear from me, I'll be there.
- Tony. You and you alone.
- I'm not having Phil. Nobody.
- Who is it?
- It's me.

Agent: [after seeing Adriana with many cuts and bruises on her face] Jesus Christ
Adriana: Don't get all excited, most of it was from the accident
Agent: You ok?
Adriana: What'd you fuckin think? Kicked out of my house, have Ulcerative colitis, and you call me up
Agent: We'd like your permission to put a listening device in your business. This relationship with Tony could net us a lot of chatter, don't forget it's him we're after
Adriana: There is no relationship
Agent: The faster we can put Tony away, the sooner you can get on with your life. We can get a court order to install the device but this way it will be a lot simpler
Adriana: Fuck you. I do enough for you people. You're not bugging my club
Agent: [Referring to Christopher] Adriana, it's a syndrome: protecting abusers
Adriana: If it had been Christopher alone in the car with a woman, I would have killed him

Christopher: [Telling and Amy and Jon a story] This made guy has the most discriminating eye when it comes to T&A, so his at a club one night and there's girls all over him and one of them has a really nice body and she's horny as hell, so they step outside and walk over to a playground and starts blowing him on the swing set. When he's about shoot his load, he starts feeling inside her skirt and reaches in and grabs a hold of a God damn "prick".

- Is Pearl Avenue in this neighborhood?
- I don't know.
- Do you know a man by the name of la fong?
- Hello? Hey, ro.
- No, Jackie took Meadow to the movies.
- He said not late.
- All right. Fine.

Tony: Old man Bacala is ok with this, what'd you give a shit anyway?
Junior: What is it with you? These power trips
Tony: The fuck are you talking about?
Junior: It has to be the old man? There's no other way?
Tony: There's a million other ways but this one will work. It was Gigi's idea. I'm not cutting his balls off. Mustang Sally's MIA. Two days ago he reaches out to old man Bacala for help. Old man Bacala is his godfather, he can get close without arousing suspicion
Junior: It still doesn't sit right
Tony: His done it a thousand times
Junior: His a sick old man
Tony: Good, it'll give him something to live for

- I appreciate you taking care of my uncle.
- Yeah, I know.
- He really loves you.
- Come on, that old prick?
- I'm serious.
- He talks about you all the time.
- I know you had your problems, but, I don't know...
- I wish he was my uncle sometimes.

- He's fucking stoned on h all the time, okay?
- There. You happy?
- You know, we put you guys on the mailing list for hazelden.
- That rehab shit? That's where all those brochures are coming from? From you?
- Convince him he needs help, that he should be in rehab.
- Look at you with that little face.

- 50-50, but it's gotta be done now, tonight.
- Tonight?
- All right, but in this case,
- I'm thinking we spare John the stress of having to hear about this.
- The situation he's in, he's got enough to deal with.
- Get me Frankie cosme on the cell.

- Tony's second night in the coma, I told him I loved him.
- When was the last time
- I said that?
- Are you afraid you aren't going to feel that way when he wakes up?
- Anthony tells me things have been...
- Better between you.

- I don't wanna be the wealthiest widow on long island. I want you to quit now."
- I'm not ashamed to say that she made me cry.
- That wonderful, loving woman.
- That dream with my father, the empty box...
- It wasn't about being boss.
- It was about being happy.

- Time and tide wait for no man, right?
- Got a decent displacement for its size.
- Puts out about 700 horsepower.
- Beautiful.
- I've been waiting 40 minutes.
- The Cuban's with the harbor master.
- But we're free to give it a spin.
- Come on, puss.

- A cappuccino maker. This is great.
- Oh, is that the capresso?
- You are gonna love that, Ade.
- Cappuccino now.
- He used to drink bosco.
- I got it at fortunoff's if you want to exchange it.
- Oh, no, no, no scissors!
- Bad luck.

Carmela: [Referring to Meadow] Alright, let's get her down here.
Tony: I guess, where is the bride of Frankenstein?
Carmela: She's still sleeping.
Tony: You're right, go wake her up.
Carmela: I wake her up?
Tony: Yeah, I want to get this shit out of the way before I go out.
Janice: Let her sleep, you guys are making too much of this.
Carmela: I don't think we're making enough, she was drunk.
Janice: It's her choice. There's a Zuni saying "For every twenty wrongs a child does, ignore nineteen."
Tony: There's an old Italian saying "You fuck up once, you lose two teeth."
Janice: See? That's what this is all about, ego and control.
Carmela: I beg your pardon?
Tony: No, please don't try and make sense with her.
Carmela: No, I want to understand this. Go ahead, tell me.
Janice: You want to hold onto control over a young woman whose entire biological determinism is to achieve independent thought and behavior. Because she's "exercised" her independence, you want to penalize her because you don't agree with her choices.
Carmela: [to Meadow while she walks into the kitchen] Well?
Carmela: Good morning, I'm sorry, is it afternoon?
Meadow: Mom, please.
Carmela: Please, what? You better have some answers, young lady.
Tony: Yeah, that's right.
Carmela: [after she remains silent] OK, fine, you're punished.
Meadow: For what? I didn't do anything.
Tony: Oh, you call what you did to grandma's house "nothing"?
Meadow: [Raising her voice] It wasn't my fault.
Carmela: It's never your fault, Meadow.
Meadow: It was just supposed to be me, Hunter, and the Mackalalooso twins and Steve shows up with his asshole friend Adam and a bunch of people from Bolton.
Tony: Oh, so Steve's walking around trying doorknobs until he hits the jackpot.
Meadow: No, Hunter goes and tells him.
Carmela: [Referring to Meadow constantly shifting blame to her friend Hunter] Oh, now with the "Hunter".
Tony: She's over at her house blaming it all on Meadow, it's an old game.
Meadow: We're under a lot of pressure, you try studying day and night to get into college. We deserved a night.
Tony: [Noticing she's becoming emotional] OK, take it easy, take it easy.
Carmela: I'm sorry you're under a lot of pressure but it's still no excuse.
Tony: So, who was this "ecstasy" guy?
Meadow: I just told you, Adam, I don't even know him. He just showed up with Steve.
Carmela: Is this the same Steve I know? The school newspaper kid you're always with?
Meadow: He's a "flake", why do you think I stopped hanging out with him?
Carmela: That's news to me you stopped hanging out with Steve.
Meadow: It's painful to talk about, OK?
Tony: Well, you're going to get punished.

- Irregardless, I said my piece.
- What're you getting at, Paulie?
- Nothing.
- Look, he's gonna be the new boss now.
- In name, in everything.
- Wish him buona fortuna.
- You guys got any peanut butter back here?

- Ralph cifaretto's here.
- What'd we say?

- Ton'? That fed's out front. Harris.
- Says he wants you to know he's here having a sandwich.

- I'm making you captain.
- You are? That's great.
- That's fucking great.
- Anthony, you're not gonna be sorry.
- Thank you.

- Threw a hot dog vendor off the second mezzanine. Too many onions.
- Geeg?
- Get him under control.
- With extreme fucking prejudice.
- We gotta go. All right.
- See you, ton.
- Hey, it's gonna be fine.
- Thanks, Tony.

- Johnny, dinner's ready! Anthony!
- Janice, turn that off.
- Let this be a lesson to you.
- A man honors his debts.
- Beautiful out he sent.
- You like it standing with the bone in, Lee?
- Look at those juices.

- What I been through, it changes the way you think.
- Holding my grandkids...
- Your kids...
- On my lap...
- All of a sudden, it's very important to me.

- We all passed a lotta water since the old days, huh?
- I was away when all that shit went down with your brother.
- What the fuck happened?
- We don't like to talk about it.
- Your car's in here, Phil.
- It's all set.

- My wrist is getting weak.
- Oh, I can help you there.
- Get out of here.
- No, let's give it some exercise.
- Tony.
- What?
- Stop.

- Well, your real children can start now.
- I went without, so you could have.
- The mink coat, the massage chair from sharper's image, the flat-screen TV.
- $2,000 bucks for a woman I don't even know!
- Paulie!

Carmela: [Confronting Christopher at his intervention] I know you were high at my mother-in-law's wake.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: My mudda's wake!

- Listen to this prick giving orders.
- You got some balls, my friend.
- Oops.
- Paulie.
- What? It was an accident.
- You want to fuck here, cocksucker?
- You come to my house...
- What did you call me?

- Hey.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- What, are you having dinner?
- Hey, you. Have you settled on a caterer yet?
- Can I talk to you?

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Jesus Christ, you did it. You cooked that fuckin' horse alive!
Ralph: No, I did NOT! But so what?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: So what?
Ralph: It was a fucking animal! A hundred grand a piece! My kid's in a fuckin' hospital! I don't hear you complaining though, when I bring you a nice fat envelope, you don't give a shit where that comes from! Don't give me that look! It was a fucking horse! What are you, a vegetarian? You eat beef and sausage by the cartload!

Carlo: [Asking Finn what he saw Vito was doing with the security guard] "Catching" not "pitching"?
Finn: [Nods] He's not going to know I told you?
Paulie: You're going to have no problem from Vito, believe me.
Finn: [Nervously] What are you going to do?
Christopher: It'll be ok, we'll get him into therapy.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Giving Finn money] Why don't you go out front, get yourself a sandwich and a soda? Any kind you like when we're done here, somebody will drive you back.
[Finn takes the money and leaves]
Christopher: [laughing] I want to kill the fat faggot myself. It'd be a fucking honor to cut off his pishadeel and feed it to him!
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to everybody] There's no mistake now.
Paulie: [Yelling] I can't believe I stuck up for him. I feel like I've been stabbed in the heart.
Bobby: We can't have him in our social club anymore, that much I do know.
Carlo: "Social club"? He's got to go.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I want to think about it.
Bobby: I don't know...
Paulie: [Stands up yelling] *What the fuck is there to think about?*
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to paulie] Sit down.
Paulie: [Yelling] Fuck that! I'll say it again, what the fuck is there to think about?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Yelling] Are you going to take care of his kids? When he's gone?
Christopher: That's true. They didn't do anything, poor little guys.
Paulie: [to tony] I'm sorry if I yelled. It's just... How much betrayal can I take?
Christopher: Vito a fag, big construction tycoon. When he was always talking about "greasing the union, who knew that's what he meant?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [to everybody] This stays in these four walls.

- Fucking broad from montclair.
- Anyway...
- This...
- Is who leads us now.
Philly: Here you go, kid.
- There you go, you big mouth fuck!
- Fuck!

- When did they flip you?
- Tell me. Don't lie.
- Flip?
- Who? What?

- Don't coach him, please.
- My nephew Anthony?
- That's why you're here in custody.
- Where's Mel?
- You dismissed Mr. Melvoin as your attorney and hired me.
- Because of his paralyzed hand from his stroke, it made your nervous.
- If somebody shot my nephew it was him himself.
- He's a depression case.

[a union leader won't go along with one of the Sopranos' schemes. Bobby is sent to fix the situation]
Bobby: You're Teddy Genaretti, aren't you? The shop steward for local 184?
Union: Guilty. What are you, a joint fitter?
Bartender: What can I get you?
Bobby: Wild Turkey, neat. I saw your caravan in the lot. It's a nice car for a family.
Union: Do I know you?
Bobby: [shakes hands] Jim Blake.
Union: What local you in?
Bobby: Bad back. It's just that I follow these things, you know, this election coming up. Dick Hoffman for president? I heard he's got 184's vote. I think it's a mistake.
Union: Pension's been ripped off for the last 25 years.
Bobby: Hey, I'm sure you guys got grievances. But Dick Hoffman? What do you owe this guy? It's all talk, he's out of touch with reality, Dick. You think if push came to shove he'd give a fuck about you?
Union: I know what you're trying to do.
Bobby: You look like a smart guy. I can see why your local puts their faith in you to do the right thing. I'm just saying if it was me, I got kids that depend on me, like yourself. And to waste my votes on somebody like Dick Hoffman? I might as well put a bullet in my head.
[makes a gun with his hand and points it to the back of his own head]
Bobby: Here, here, and here.

- Oh, there ain't no bear back there.
- Fellas!

- All right.
- Hacklebarney state park.
- Where the "George Washington slept here" house is.
- Up that road, there's a gray house.
- Bevilaqua's there?
- Twenty bucks, baby.

Valentina: [In the hospital room, after Tony just told her he's going back to live at home with Carmela] I'll kill myself!
Tony: [his phone rings] I gotta take this.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [when Christopher shows his wedding ring to them] is that what I think it is?
Christopher: you are now looking at a newly wedded man
Patsy: [smiles and raises his glass to him] holy shit!
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Kelli?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after Christopher nods] what the fuck brought this on?
Christopher: [referring to Kelli is pregnant with his child] a "visit from the stork coming up"
Silvio: [jokingly] you ever heard of "pulling out?"
Patsy: [referring to the sex of the baby] know what you're having?
Christopher: boy, I hope. I'll tell you T, with the example you set, plus the wisdom I learned in AA, it's an inspiration: building blocks, home, family
Silvio: yeah, that's what it's all about kid

- Just give it to him.
- Victory has a hundred fathers, but defeat is an orphan.
- Shut up! Stop fucking looking at me!
- Come on, hurry up!
- Let's get out of here!
- If you can keep your head while those around you can't...

- Coming out.
- To sil, to the doctor, how about a winner this time?
- How much is he into us for?
- About 45 boxes of ziti.
- He grabbed ten while you slept.
- He said you okayed it.
- Go get that.

- How can I repay you?
- I don't know.
- Why don't you surprise me?
- On your Mark, get set, go!

- Wondered about that chicken.
- Probably a fucking cocker spaniel.
- Stop it, Tony. Here, lie back.
- Well, you feel a little hot.
- Fucking goddess with the six arms.
- No wonder.
- Here.
- Sip. I said sip, Tony.

Tony: [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: [Nods] you got it
Tony: We never got a chance to talk in detail about Adriana
Christopher: I know
Tony: If you let something slip, if she saw anything
Christopher: 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: Did you ever say anything about Ralph or the Bevilaqua kid?
Christopher: No
Tony: [Questioning Christopher's memory during that time because he was addicted to narcotics] Would you remember?
Christopher: I swear on my life
Christopher: [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: She's a cunt. It does no good to think about that now

- I don't know. Negativity?
- But seriously.
- There must be something.
- Isn't there anything she likes doing?
- My dad used to find her these old records, these sisters.
- Oh, the de Castro sisters, right.
- The Andrew sisters would've been too easy.
- He'd take her that Mario lasagne guy.
- I hated that shit.

- You preach this wise-guy shit...
- Meanwhile we're the only ones who play by the rules.
- I loved you.
- What happens, I decide.
- You don't love me, that hurts, but too bad.
- Because you don't gotta love me.
- But you will respect me.

- What the fuck are you talking about?
- Come on, ton, huh?
- Between the coke, the vodka, whatever the fuck else...
- He was squirting up his arm...
- Let's be honest about the great Dickie moltisanti.
- My dad, your hero...
- Wasn't much more than a fucking junkie.

- He's catching some shuteye.
- You're such a powerhouse.
- When you kiss me down there...
- You're like a great artist.
- You got a real instinct for it.
- Pass me the red peppers.

- How's your medication?
- Maybe we should stop.

- That ain't our beer.
- It's good, and cheaper than yours.
- Is my laundry done?
- I can't help it if I have to buy from schemer burns.
- You're yellow!
- You ain't gonna slug me, are you?

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: So, you've come back for help: don't look at that as a defeat
Tony: [referring to his mother] She's part of that generation that grew up during the Depression but depression to her was a trip to Six Flags
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: There's that D word again
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [after he leans back and rubs his head] stay with your mother
Tony: Now that my father's dead, he's a saint
Tony: [before flicking his chin] When he was alive, nothin. My dad was tough: he ran his own crew, a guy like that and my mother wore him down to a little nub, he was a squeaking little gerbil when he died
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Quite a formable presence

Corrado: What did the blind man say when he passed the fish market? "Good morning, ladies."

- Fucking stunad, this guy.
- Did you like the bread?
- What?
- The datenut bread.
- I have recipes...
- Hey, sweetheart, not now, alright?

- I genuinely don't think there's anything to gain...
- By keeping him around.
- Get it done.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Introducing Paulie to Brian at Paulie's welcome back from prison party at the Bada Bing strip club] say hello to Brian Cammarata, Carm's cousin, the financial guy
Paulie: How you doing kid?
Brian: [Jokingly] so, just back from "college" huh?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Let me talk to Paulie for a sec ok?
Brian: Nice meeting you
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: So, how you doing? You ok?
Paulie: Just thank God that piece of shit from Youngstown "copped" to that gun. I could've been wearing an orange jumpsuit until I'm ninety
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Handing him an envelope full of money] well, your back home now. That's the important thing. Here, to get back on your feet
Paulie: Thanks T, not that I don't appreciate it but I could've used a boost while I was gone too. Fuckin bills. Then there's ma with the private home care. You know she almost lost her spot at Green Grove? An extra 5g's to hold her place
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Paulie, you've been back thirty seconds and you already got a fist full of cash, and not to mention the no-show jobs I got for you
Paulie: Your right Tone. I know
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Enjoy the party
Paulie: I will

Tony: Its 3am, I'm wide awake
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Something specific?
Tony: It's a "management" problem, it's a situation with an underling, now it's partly my fault. But he have never done what he did
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: What was it? Could you tell me that?
Tony: Caused an early "retirement" for somebody else, I think he thought he was more important, he fucked up. Now ordinarily I'd just you know, just put him "out to pasture". But his a very valuable piece of man power
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Is it complicated by a personal relationship?
Tony: [Intentionally changing the subject] I've been reading that book you were telling me about The Art of War by Sun Tzu
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [Nods]
Tony: I mean here's this guy, a Chinese general wrote this thing twenty four hundred years ago and most of it still applies today, bought the enemy's power, force him to reveal himself
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [Interrupts him] I have to ask, are you in any sort of danger?
Tony: No, can I go on? Most of the guys I know read Prince Machiavelli and I had Carmela get the Cliffs Notes once and his ok, but this book is much better about strategy
Tony: [Intentionally changing the subject] Listen I wanted to ask you about that woman that was here today, the Mercedes sales lady
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I'm very sorry about the confusion
Tony: What does someone like that need a shrink for?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I can't talk about another patient
Tony: It just makes you wonder that's all

Johnny: Yeah?
Ralph: John, it's me
Johnny: And?
Ralph: And I'm calling to tell you how appalled I am. I just got back. I talked to Tony. I love Ginny, I would never say anything like that
Johnny: That's not what I heard
Ralph: From who John?
Johnny: I don't betray confidences, you denying you said it?
Ralph: Fuck yes, I'm denying I said it
Johnny: I don't believe you
Ralph: Just tell me who said this. I'll put a bullet in their fuckin eye
Johnny: You're a real weasel you know that?
Ralph: John please, look, last year when Tony and I had our "thing", that misunderstanding, you were "the voice of reason". You were the one that told me to apologize
Johnny: So, you're apologizing?
Ralph: If that's what it takes
Johnny: Why would you apologize? I thought you didn't say it?
Ralph: I didn't say it
Johnny: [Before hanging up] you know something Ralph? Not only are you a thief, you're a lying fuckin prick. I should've let Tony chop your head off a year ago

- Hmm, I know.
- I wish someone could convince aj of that.
- I keep thinking he could start over in college but who knows if he's even gonna get the chance.
- He will.
- All our students matriculate.

- Listen to me, you little boochiac'.
- Until you pay what you owe, that shaved twat of yours belongs to me!
- You understand?!
- I asked you a question.
- Yeah, now, get in the car.

- Phil and joanne.
- Scene two, barefoot in the park.
- Chris, Mitch and Cynthia.
- Scenes six and seven...
- The glass menagerie.
- You are the gentleman caller.
- Bob and Amy...

Ralph: [over the phone, referring to the cost for fixing her car] how could it be thirty-two hundred dollars?
Rosalie: [referring to her mechanic] He said the transmission was completely "compromised"
Ralph: I've never even heard of that, I want my guy to take a look at it
Rosalie: I already told this guy to go ahead
Ralph: Well, then call him back, tell him not to, tell him we're picking up the car
Ralph: [after Vito gives Ralph a nod, implying he successfully killed Jackie Jr] Forget it, I don't care: let him do it
Rosalie: Are you sure honey?
Ralph: [before Roe hangs up] What the fuck did I say? Look, I'm coming home late, I got some shit I gotta do

- Yeah, all right.
- You're sick, people treat you like a nonentity. I'm serious.
- You can't talk about this with anybody.
- Yeah. Yeah, of course.
- Of course.
- Hello?
- Uncle jun's got cancer.

Carmela: [in the backyard of their home] Holsten's is the consensus
Tony: Alright I've got to see some people, I'll meet you there

Neil: [while playing golf] We lucked out with the weather huh? So, how's the life of leisure?
Tony: I'm playing golf ain't I?
Neil: But seriously, it's good your pulling back business-wise like we agreed
Tony: My nephew, I told him, I'm gonna be speaking through him and only through him as time passes
Neil: Good
Tony: And Sil
Neil: Good
Tony: I don't wanna celebrate my daughter's first kid in prison

- My accounts are in bad neighborhoods.
- I know why you lie.
- But you don't have to.
- Can I hold it?

- and the freshman Dean said there was no point in coming back.
- With your father in a coma...
- I didn't tell dad.
- Be positive, everybody said.
- My god.
- I tried really hard in philosophy, but that professor...
- With your father in a coma!
- Go have breakfast.

- Some things you don't get into over the phone.
- Got it. Lorraine's at mass.
- Watch out for Spencer.
- Who?
- Her fucking toy terrier.
- He's a shit machine.
- I talked to some of the guys about your misgivings.
- Yeah?

Tony: My wife had her doubts about Jackie Jr. and all along, I kept defending the two-faced prick
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Do you feel responsible for their relationship?
Tony: [referring to her previous boyfriend Noah Tannenbaum] Well, Meadow thinks she'd still be going out with the "Oreo cookie" if it wasn't for me
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Well, that's true, isn't it?
Tony: Look, the question is: what am I gonna do about Jackie? Should I tell my wife? Meadow... it'd break heart if she knew
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [before Tony abruptly gets up to leave] On another subject, I was thinking what we were talking about the last time you were here: you know your friend who was working for the federal government? Granted, I get most of my information from the movies and Bill Kurtis, but I was thinking...

- Darlene, hi, how are you?
- Great.
- I wanted to thank you.
- Your husband's friend came by the office. We got the listing.
- Which friend? Who?
- Furio Gunther?
- Is that how you say it?
- House just went on the market.
- Hi, penny! How are you?

- Yeah, I'm gonna stay.
- We order a pizz'?
- Yeah.
- Get some meatballs and sausage too.
- Couple of salads. No vegetarian pizza.
- And paper plates too.
- We ain't got no things in here.

- As long as you're okay. I don't know what I'd do if you got hurt.
- You almost died.
- I'm so sorry.
- I should have taken you to vassar.
- You loved that car.
- It's all right.
- Come on, let's get you home.
- No. I wanna go with you.
- You're sure?

Ralph: You wanted to see me?
Tony: Sit down. I'm making you a captain
Ralph: [Surprised, excited] you are? That's great. That's fuckin great. Anthony, you're not going to be sorry. Thank you
Tony: [after noticing Ralphie paused for a few seconds] what?
Ralph: I need to hear it was merit and not just because someone was constipated and "blew a gasket."
Tony: You're going to be making a lot more money so don't question it. You want to be a captain? You're a captain
Ralph: Thank you Tony, your right. I wanted this so fuckin long
Tony: Well you know what they say: "Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it"
Ralph: [Before Tony takes a shot of liquor by himself, stands up and leaves] so are we going to have a drink together or what?

- Because they're stupid, that's why, and jealous.
- They disrespected a proud Italian heritage...
- And named us after a ballet costume.
- Marissa.
- That's for modern.
- In ballet, you wear tutus.
- It doesn't make a difference.
- That's right, it doesn't.
- Can we have cake now?

- We'll stand in recess for 15 minutes...
- While the court confers with counsel in chambers.
- Bailiff, will you escort the jury out.
- Did Julie say anything to you about this?
- What we saw in that courtroom is a transparent attempt by Richard cross...
- To subvert the intent of the marital privilege.
- Hey, she's his wife.

- Thought you were at the beauty parlor.
- I'm gonna get the last of the tomatoes.
- -Yeah, they were good last night.
- A little late in the season for ducks, no?
- Well, not necessarily.
- The ones from upper Canada...
- This is the south to them.

[ Tearfully ] You're all right.
- Well, here we are.
- I'll get him settled. You can come tomorrow during visiting hours.
- I love you, sweetie.
- I love you.
- I love you too.
- He's had a lot of valium.

- You're having coffee, right?
- My father has glaucoma.
- It's Jackie, leave a message.
- It's me again.
- You said you were gonna call.
- Where the hell are you?
- Hi, ambujam. I'm really sorry,
- I need to borrow your car.

- You talk to vito?
- Huh? I called him two times.
- He never called me back.
- You try the house?
- 'Cause he called me just the other night.
- Hungry, t.? You want, I'll have bissell fix you a sandwich.
- No, no, I'm good. I'm good.

- And they built this place.
- Yeah, right. Two guys.
- No, they were two guys on a crew of, you know, laborers.
- They didn't design it...
- But they knew how to build it.
- Now find two guys who can put decent grout around your bathtub.

Elzbieta: Mr. Tony, Mr. Sil is here, Mrs Carmela said you should stay in bed
Tony: Have him come up

Benny: Jesus
Paulie: Poor kid
Bobby: Jesus Christ
Tony: Seems like that's the cause of death
Walden: It's not Carlo, its AJ
Benny: [to Walden] Carlo's coming up?
Silvio: [to Walden, irritated] What's with you and Carlo's fuckin arrival?
Walden: I'm just saying
Tony: Their gonna do a full blood test on him: see if you know... if alcohol, drugs... you know
Silvio: It did occur to me, he didn't seem high, did he?
Tony: Are you kidding? I would've been furious. I would've fuckin strangled him
Walden: He'd been working the program very dedicated ever since he threw Little Paulie out that window
Silvio: Let's not go there
Benny: Even before that he was battling that shit

- That's Tony and Ralph's horse, pie-o-my.
- Where you going?
- Ton? It's your shot.
- What are you doing?
- That's a forfeit. That's our money.

- What are you, a wiseass?
- What?
- What'd I do?

- Hi, you've reached the sopranos.
- Leave a message. Bye!
- Stop picking your nose!
- I'm here. Call me.
- Love you.
- Thanks.

Adriana: [after watching Citizen Kane] So, it was the sled, huh? He shoulda told somebody.

- Poor man says, "she don't like the slippers she can go fuck herself."
- Can I get another Heineken?
- Sure.
- Remember when you first brought me here?
- Yeah, I remember.
- Popped my cherry that night.
- Yeah. It seems like old times.

Silvio: [of Tony Blundetto's finding a large bag of cash] From now on, when anybody steps in a pile of shit, it will be known as a "Blundetto"!

- Did you at least register for classes?
- I will.
- Oh, just go.
- Hi.
- There's some guy in your driveway with a ponytail?
- What is his story?
- Hi, Mrs. Sop.
- Hello, misty.

- Did you hear the doorbell?
- I'm in the middle of a game.
- You'll be in the middle of the street, you don't wise up.

- Again, I must move for a mistrial.
- Your honor, the government asks that you give them another Allen charge...
- To go back and try again.
- As much as I'd like to, this jury's been at it a long time.
- I don't see where one or two more days is going to change anything.
- Bring in the jury.

Christopher: I look in her eyes, man, and she looks back at me...
Paulie: How the fuck do I put myself up for adoption?
Christopher: What?
Paulie: Nothin'. Go ahead.
Christopher: She ain't adopted Paulie.
Paulie: I'm kiddin'. What were you sayin'?
Christopher: My point... What the fuck?... It's babies. They're the future. You realize by the time Caitlin's outta college it'll be like the year 2027 or somethin'.
Paulie: She takes after you she won't be outta fourth grade by then. 'Course by that time she'll be workin' here so who gives a shit.

- Don't go, daddy.
- What is that?
- Briefcases aren't allowed.
- No, the voice.
- Please, let me take that from you.
- Looks like it weighs a ton.
- I don't want to.
- Well, you need to.
- You need to let go.
- We love you, daddy.
- Don't leave us.

- "We're with the vipers."
- Fun night.
- Fuckin' a.
- "Take it easy. Take it easy."
- 10-4.
- You remember the look on the other guy's face?
- Oh, the fucking grizzly Adams douchebag.

- I did not carry on an affair with the cousin...
- And I will take a goddamn polygraph to that effect.
- I want you to leave this house, Tony.
- Please.
- I want you to leave me alone.
- What about the kids?
- Yeah, it's horrible.
- God help them.

George: [FBI wiretap recording from an undercover FBI van] Cafe Napoli
Tony: George, its Anthony
George: Your fucking ears must be ringing I just left your friend, the son crying the blues over the situation between you and that outfit over there
Tony: That's why I'm calling I need you to reach out to the "little guy"
George: His not happy with Phil neither
Tony: I know, you're not a part of that family, your basically retired, everybody trusts you, what I'm thinking you supply a location, guarantee everybody's safety
George: I could do that
George: [At a secret sit down meeting in closed construction warehouse]
George: Anybody want a water? The guys are already here, they've been patted down too
Butch: We started it? We got a dead comare in Queens and her old Ukrainian father
Tony: I'm not even going to blame Phil, John Sacrimoni my friend I'm sorry to say was an insecure guy, he created a constant tension within his family which spilled over, go ahead Carmine George was good enough to broker this meeting for us? You just going to sit there?
Carmine Lupertazzi Jr.: It didn't have to be this way
Butch: We agree it's got too far, Phil's changed, you got my word we'll back off
Tony: My price is you help us get a location on Phil
Butch: I can't go there, but you do what you gotta do
Tony: One more thing, you hit my brother in law
Butch: So?
Tony: This is my sister we're talking about, she's got to see something out of this
Butch: We'll come up with a number?
[They all shake hands and leave]

- All right.
- But let's be clear on this right now.
- This guy crawls out from a rock, he's your problem.
- You deal with slava, you take the heat, you pay the price.
- Capisce?
- Fine.

- I should go apologize.
- Not right now, okay?
- Let me talk to Chris.
- You go home.
- Call me tomorrow.
- Got a business opportunity over in Newark.
- Jesus-fucking-Christ.

- Room 728.
- Elevators are on your left.
- Have a good night.
- Thank you.
- Good night.
- Night.

- Here, hold this.
- Artie, come on.
- Hey, look at me. Look at me.
- I'll always help you.
- Come on. Come on.
- Go cook. Hey, let him cook.
- He'll feel better.

- Mr. Tony, miss carmela said to tell you she went to buy a suit for a.J.
- Go away.
- Okay, mister. Miss carmela told me to remind you of your appointment.

[ Loudly ] I can't get used to this torque.
- What?

Tony: [to Richie Aprile] Don't give me your fucking Manson lamps. Just fucking stop it. Understand?

Assemblyman Zellman: Restaurants, stores, slips for luxury yachts
Tony: [to Johnny] We'll call my plumber at the electrical unions: the steel, the brickwork, it's all yours
Johnny: We need to have a conversation about Local 187
Assemblyman Zellman: [to Johnny] You gotta come by the office, see the scale model, the guy even makes little people walking on the street
Johnny: [jokingly] Fuckin Newark, they got little hookers giving little blowjobs?
Johnny: [stands up] I gotta go take a leak
Assemblyman Zellman: So, I got a call from Eddie Volar at the PBA: your "friend", the cop? His bitching about losing his overtime. His got some black officer squad looking into his case
Tony: oh, yeah?
Assemblyman Zellman: If you want, I can get it "squashed", get him reassigned
Tony: [after thinking it over] You know what? Fuck him, cocksucker got what he deserved

- Look, if you know something, please, quit fucking around.
- I think it's important to remember.
- You said you liked the history channel.
- He who doesn't understand history is doomed to repeat it.
- Let's talk about your father.
- My father.
- Heads up!

Tony: [Referring to Christopher and Carmella] He was high a fuckin kite, I didn't tell her that
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: In retrospect, maybe not the best approach
Tony: Right, I'm the asshole, again
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [after noticing Tony pause for a second] what? No go ahead
Tony: It's amazing how some things work, his mother, my cousin Joanne: a lush, totally abandoned him as a parent and now she's reaping all the sympathy and tears .
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: How are you doing Anthony?
Tony: There's been some hard moments, a weak fuckin lying drug addict who fantasized about my downfall even showed people his filthy thoughts on a movie screen. I've seen friends died before, accidents even murder. My cousin Tony, they shot his face away. I was prostate with grief but this?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I see
Tony: And it occurs to me I hand carried this kid through the worst crisis he ever had. I can't go into particulars but wives, girlfriends they can complicate life in major ways I don't have to tell you that. It was a huge problem of his own making and he cried, he couldn't deal with it. So, I took up the slack. I handled it, I felt sorry for him and he talked gratitude but guess what pity produces in the recipient? They shit on your pity and that's what broke the camel's back.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: How are you dealing with this?
Tony: The worst part? Truthfully? Because I've got to sit there with people who are hurt bad and I've got to have the long face and the sighing, the platitudes but I don't feel it and that makes feel like a hypocrite

- Name is finnerty.
- I called and reserved a room.
- Yes, Mr. Finnerty, we have you down for a single room for the night.
- Did you wish to keep that on the visa?
- Uh, yeah.
- I'll need to take an imprint to cover incidentals.
- Sure.

- I thought you were sick.
- Go to bed.
- I'll see you later.
- Maybe too much.
- Don't think I want any less.
- Do you love me?
- I think I do.

- I know that.
- Nice suite, t.
- Anyway, thought you needed to know right away.
- You gonna eat that?
- No, take it.
- Thanks.
- Right. See you later.

- That was wonderful, reverend.
- You call us if you need anything.
- Thank you.
- Good night.

- Wait a second.
- Where are you taking that lamp?
- Mine gives me a headache.
- Don't change the subject!
- I'm out of here!
- Be sure to call when you need some money!
- Now you got something you can rat me out about in therapy!
- Madonna, this place!
- You only retire once.

Tony: It's good to be in something from the ground floor. I came too late for that and I know. But lately, I'm getting the feeling that I came in at the end. The best is over.

- I gotta tell you, frank.
- I'd forget about any deli trays coming your way in the future.

Tony: That should be expected, with Vito passing and all that entrails.

Richie: [giving a toast at his engagement party to Janice] everybody, I want to thank my future in-laws for throwing me this party and I want to thank you all for coming and celebrating this historical union: the Apriles and the Sopranos. They say "It's never too late" and "All those good comes to those who wait", their right on both counts

Massive: [to Hesh] So you bought horses with your royalties. And Little Jimmy's royalties, whatever became of those?
Silvio: He bought "horse".

- You went down in the garage?
- I'm gonna go check it out.
- You said you'd get up early, come to church with me...
- And go online and register for your classes.
- I'll miss grandma-and-grandpa dinner too.
- There's a back-to-school party for Hadley.

- Dick, I'm trying to work on this office pool.
- Sure, I'll leave you alone.

- You heard the Beatles for h&r block?
- Sometimes I feel like I should be punished.
- Come on, let's get something to eat.
- Well, here's something
- I never thought I'd say: To the federal government.
- Depends on which department.

Tony: Marie Spatafore came to see me. She wants a hundred grand to relocate on account of Vito, Jr. already has his own social worker.
Phil: Patty told me there was doin's. I guess the turd doesn't fall far from the faggot's ass

[Christopher has been shot; one of the two hitmen is still at large]
Joanne: When you find him, I want him to suffer. You hear me, Sil? I want that motherfucker in agony!
Silvio: Don't worry, we'll do the best we can.

Carmela: [Participating in Tony's therapy session for the first time] how are you feeling, from your accident?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Fine, thank you
Carmela: Honestly, if you told me five years ago I'd be sitting here today
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Anthony's attacks, how do they make you feel?
Carmela: Concerned of course, helpless, a little frustrated
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Maybe with your inability to help him?
Carmela: To tell you the truth I was referring to your inability to help him
Tony: She has helped me, what're you talking about?
Carmela: You've been coming here for three years Tony and you still pass out on a regular basis
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [to Carmela] I understand your frustration. Did Anthony share with you any insights about his last panic attack?
Tony: I told you remember? The gabagool and my mother when I was a little kid
Carmela: Right, yes
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Do you think that there's anything in the present family "dynamic" that could serve as a trigger? Something in your dialog perhaps?
Carmela: Excuse me?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: I don't really know you that well, we're trying to get to root causes
Tony: Like maybe you do things that may have some affect on me?
Carmela: Oh, really?
Tony: What? People affect each other in life
Carmela: [to Dr. Melfi] oh I get it, is this how it works? You can't get any answers so you start looking for someone else to point the finger at?
Tony: She's not saying anything, why are you getting so defensive?
Carmela: You know what Tony? Maybe you should "explore" your own behavior, maybe you pass out because you're guilty over something. Maybe because of the fact that you stick your dick into anything with a pulse, you ever "explore" that as a root cause?
Tony: [Sarcastically] very nice, that's very nice
Carmela: Uh-huh
Tony: [to Carmela] I told you months ago I broke it off with that Russian person
Tony: [to Dr. Melfi] right?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: [Remains silent]
Carmela: It's incredible, it's like people who smoke their entire lives then they sue the cigarette companies when they get cancer
Tony: [Faces away from her] you know, you agreed to come here, oh forget it, this is fuckin ridiculous
Carmela: Right, just sit there, silence, anger, then you pass out and then you blame the rest of the world
Tony: [Sarcastically] yeah I love you too
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You're both very angry.

- Who knows what the fuck he's got planned.
- You get word to everybody, eyes in the back of your head...
- Break routines, collections, all that shit.
- You tell everybody.
- Got it.
- In the meantime, we keep trying.
- Get a 20 on Phil.

- Oh, my sweet Karen.
- My sweet girl.
- Pass me the peppers.
- Hello?
- Oh, yeah, just a second.
- Ton, it's the Indian chief.

Stokley: [when asked by Tony to convince and confirm that Tony and Adriana weren't having oral sex at the time of their car accident] to whether somebody was getting "something" in the car, how could I possibly attest to that?
Tony: as the attendee, you can explain how medically, it's not possible.
Stokley: excuse me?
Tony: for instance, if she was wearing a seat belt, there would have been abrasions to the lateral anterior aspect of the right clavicle wouldn't there? Or the right mid-sternum
Stokley: are you a physician?
Tony: no, I'm a pre-board certified massage therapist
Tony: [confused, annoyed] so did she have any kind of those things?
Stokley: Actually yes, on the right clavicle and the sternum just above the Xiphoid process, which would indicate an upright position at the moment of impact
Tony: [to Christopher, referring to Adrianna] so what his saying she was sitting up

Georgie: Hey Ralph!
Ralph: I have come to reclaim Rome... for my people.
Georgie: How ya doin'?
Ralph: [grabs Georgie by the neck, yelling] I have come to reclaim Rome... for my people!
Georgie: I don't get it. What do you mean?
Ralph: Fuckin' Gladiator, ya fuck!
Georgie: Oooh, the movie! I didn't see it.
Ralph: You're an asshole then.

- He just called.
- Give me a sec. I'll dump the line.
- You got a pen?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Go ahead.
- He's at Roy's. It's a business.
- Kinderhook, New York.
- That's upstate.
- Yeah, I know where it is. Thanks.

- Then she is picking up my parents and they're coming here.
- They're each bringing some antipasto.
- I complain about my mother, about how she just sits at home...
- And feels sorry for herself.
- But she's always ready to drive those friends of hers that can't drive.
- I'm proud of her. It gives me hope.

Christopher: J.T., I want to introduce you to Carmine Lupertazzi: my co-executive producer on the project.
Carmine Lupertazzi Jr.: [To J.T] I heard the tidbits of what Chrissy's got in mind, the genre, and so forth. I've got to warn you, I'm very hands on and I learned that the hard way.
Carmine Lupertazzi Jr.: [to everyone in the room] I want to welcome all of you to the first meeting of possible investors on this project. Some of you know I've had nine pictures under my sub species: four in The South Beach Strumpet series alone, each with thirty thousand plus DVDs in print. That being said I usually find it helpful at this stage to include to my prospective partners and get your inputs, or "notes" as we call them.
Christopher: J.T., you're on.
J.T. Dolan: Well, we've been working on a new kind of slasher film, it takes in the world of... you know...
Christopher: [Interrupts him] It"s about a wise guy with a big mouth, and bigger dreams.
J.T. Dolan: Anyway, they call him "The Butcher".
Silvio: No, they don't.
Christopher: Why the fuck not?
Silvio: Need I remind you of a certain "Butcher" out of AC?
Christopher: Right, not "butcher", go on J.T.
J.T. Dolan: Right, so his kind of outshining his boss so the guy has him clipped, but he's still alive when they cut him up.
Vito: [Jokingly before everyone laughs] Oh, he's going to feel that the next day.
J.T. Dolan: Right, so at the dump his body reassembles itself all except for a hand that got crushed. So he ties a cleaver onto the stump and he goes out to get revenge on everyone especially the boss which is a pretty solid role. Right now its call "Pork Store Killer", but I'm thinking just "Cleaver".
Larry: I'm confused, you said he's dead.
Vito: How is he "evening" up on everybody? He's a ghost?
Carmine Lupertazzi Jr.: [Clarifying the main character in the movie to everyone] as I understood it: a zombie of sorts. Great title by the way.
Patsy: But if they jointed him, he's not going to end up all in the same dump.
Silvio: And how is that a slasher film?
Christopher: What're you talking about?
Silvio: A slasher: Couple kids naked in the lake, a certified manic on the loose, not a ghost.
J.T. Dolan: Actually the manic is almost always a supernatural force: Freddy, Jason, Michael Myers from Halloween...
Silvio: Get the fuck out...
Carmine Lupertazzi Jr.: Easy Sil, he's making a point.
Silvio: Michael Myers is an escape mental patient. Jason and Freddy, different kind of movie.
Christopher: That's the kind we're doing here. Saw, The Ring, they made millions, and that's not even including The Godfather angle which we got here.
Benny: What if they disposed him at stops that happened to be along the same route? Then he would all end up all in the same dump.
Vito: But he's a ghost? I don't know.
Christopher: Ghostbusters, another fuckin' money machine!

- I just got rid of the last.
- Thank fuckin' Christ.
- I drove up to Connecticut.
- Good. The rump roast went in down the shore.
- So the barbecue over in sheepshead bay... that still a go?
- You know I'm not really sure where the big guy left that.

Dr. Plepler: Whoa, I just found Jimmy Hoffa

- Something don't make sense here.
- You think it's a setup?
- Not necessarily, but...
- Our friend is very anxious to pass the ball, the prick.
- But nobody can know this was ever considered.
- I'll offer my guys half of what they'd have got. That should do it.
- I just want you to make sure.
- I told you that.

Tony: I don't talk business with anybody: don't take it personally. A guy in my position is a government target, why do you think we're meeting in a fuckin mall?
Richie: I'm the guy who saved you from the "hit parade"
Tony: When? When did you ever step in for me?
Richie: You forget? When you and my kid brother stuck up "Feech" La Manna's card game, Feech was "made" before the electric light. If it wasn't for me, you two kids would've caught a vicious beating to say the least
Tony: You know I love you, you're like my big brother and your gonna be taken care of: what was "yours" before you went away will be "yours" again, you just gotta give it some time
Richie: You're gonna do that for me?
Tony: Hey fuck you
Richie: What's "mine" is not "yours" to give me
Tony: Hey prick, you reached out to me
Richie: I said what I wanted to say

Ralph: [referring to the amount of money he robbed from a safe] nice haul, crackin that strong box, almost a 100k
Paulie: where's my half? Fuckin week now
Ralph: well, let's see, after you kick upstairs, you'll net...
Paulie: [interrupts him] what're you, my accountant?
Ralph: I'm better at numbers than nine tenths of your accountants
Paulie: kind of in our ears in the respect department, aren't you?
Ralph: fuck you talkin about?
Silvio: [referring to Jackie Jr., then Christopher and Furio] your future step son, robbed your card game, he pissed on your leg, killed your dealer, shot at two made guys
Paulie: [points to Paulie and Silvio] A, you're talking shit that's none of your business and B, I'm gonna give that little fuck a beating he'll never forget, as soon as we locate him
Silvio: his in the housing project in fuckin Boonton
Ralph: [ignores Sil, to Paulie] so, this fifty, g's, you think you deserve it?
Paulie: deserve? It's my territory

- He was spotted three blocks away.
- By Mickey Farrell.
- You're gonna believe some drunken Irish fucking prick over me?
- Have a drink.
- I don't want a fucking drink.
- Have one anyway.
- So how's your daughter doing?
- Good.

Silvio: [talking privately, referring to Feech La Manna] He's an egomaniac, always was, always will be. Nothing's ever good enough, praise, money. Comes into this office and starts ordering people around?
Tony: his old, how do you think that feels?

[Christopher calls Tony from a phone booth, while it's raining]
Tony: What do you got?
Christopher: Wet shoes.
Tony: You chose this life. You don't want to work in the rain, try for the fucking Yankees.

- Between us, she's black.
- Oh!
- You're bangin' a shine?
- She's hot too. Classy.
- Not that it would matter to Paulie.
- I'd still have to listen to all his racial bullshit.
- Yeah. She would feel it too.

- For 50 percent of your motel.
- Correct.
- The goon squads who smacked these husbands around to get the divorce...
- Were put out of business by the da.
- All right, 25 percent.
- He wants 50, we get 25.
- I don't understand.
- I'm not talking to you.

- And there's no stage five.
- That's correct.
- How long?
- Difficult to say.
- I have seen miracles over the years.
- Forget the miracles.
- Three months.
- Give or take.

- This is me asking you.
- Why don't you get out?!
- Come on.
- Get the fuck out, go!
- Let's go!
- Come on, come on!

Carmela: [on the family dinner table in their home] As your parents we feel joining the army is in your best interest
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: This country is in a crisis
Carmela: How can one soldier stop it?
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: When my enlistment is up, I could join the CIA or something and with a military background I'd have "a leg up" and as an Arabic speaker I'd be very useful
Tony: [Sarcastically] I don't understand your going to ask Donald for some time off from your pilot job to go on CIA missions?
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: Everything's a joke to you
Tony: I'm not having a good time
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: Did you or did you not want me to go to military school?
Carmela: At least you would've come out an officer, even then I was oppose to it, I hate this idea
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: I'm applying for officers' candidate school I want to be a liaison officer with the local population
Carmela: Officers' candidate school? You have terrible grades you flunked out of college
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: Here we go, that's all this is about right?
Carmela: No Anthony this is not what it's about, you don't want to go to college, then don't go to college but don't get your legs blown off
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: [dismissively] Always with the drama
Tony: What's your girlfriend say? The fashion model?
Anthony 'A.J.' Soprano,: She doesn't think I should go either

- Stugots? Fucking goombah trash.
- This whole shoreline's turning into the Gulf of sorrento.
- Hey, buddy! Turn it down!
- How long I been on?

- Coffee, ton?
- Got any decaf?
- Decaf?
- No, forget it. Regular's fine.
- Well, I can make decaf.
- Yeah, that'd be great. Thanks.

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Talking privately in a limousine] maybe I'm wrong but you haven't been yourself since the old man died. Lorraine Calluzzo, and you sank this idiot's boat. That's not the Johnny Sack I know
Johnny: I'm waiting for your explanation
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: My cousin could not have been in the city that night because he was with me. We were looking for his daughter because she fuckin disappeared. We were upstate: Monticello. We heard Kelly was living with some crack head up there. As a matter of fact we were going to reach out to you. See if you can get some of your people on it
Johnny: I swear on my mother if I find out your lying...
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Interrupts him] I'm sitting here humbling my friendship out to you

- We'll see.
- Wait a minute!
- I don't like that kind of talk!
- Now just stop it, it upsets me!
- Or I won't tell you anything anymore.
- If this is true, Livia, you know what I... I mean...
- I'm the boss, for Christ sake!
- If I don't act, blood or no...

- And he won't use boyz ii men this time, he'll go with who he knows.
- Chucky signore. No, Mikey's now too high up.
- Chucky's gotta disappear without setting off alarms.
- I just passed my coast guard test.
- T, anything else?
- My ear hurts.

["Big Pussy" is spying on Christopher and speaking into a dictaphone]
Salvatore: Searchlight Diner. 5:15 AM. Subject has still not left location. Sun comin' up.

- Hold your position.
- Okay.
- Stand up straight.
- Okay.
- Here you go.
- See? Low to high.
- All right, I can't do this with you.
- Okay.
- Sorry.

Carmela: What we say in here, stays in here, right?
Dr. Krakower: By ethical code, and by law.
Carmela: His crimes... they are, organized crime.
Dr. Krakower: The Mafia!
Carmela: Oh Jesus.
[wipes tears from her eyes]
Carmela: So what? So what? He betrays me every week with these whores!
Dr. Krakower: Probably the least of his misdeeds.
[Carmela gets up to leave]
Dr. Krakower: You can leave now, or you can stay and hear what I have to say.
Carmela: You're gonna charge me all the same.
Dr. Krakower: I won't take your money.
Carmela: That's a new one.

- You and me and daddy on the sofa...
- Watching ed Sullivan.
- We never missed a Sunday.
- Oh, my god.
- My children!
- Music has charms, ma.
- Thank god, huh?

Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: To what do I owe this pleasure?
Carmela: I don't know if you'll see it that way I asked you to lunch to tell you I'm filing for divorce
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: That's nice, you invite me to a public place so you can ambush me? So you think I won't make a scene?
Carmela: Spare me your outrage accept the fact that I'm moving on with my life
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Moving on? That's what you were doing after the party last week?
Carmela: You and I both know that didn't change anything
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: First of all we're Italian, we don't believe in divorce, we believe in the nuclear family
Carmela: Despite your best efforts I have attorney who is going to aggressively pursue my custody of AJ and an equitable distribution of our assets
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Our assets?
Carmela: I am through in trying to get you to provide beyond the minimum for me to live
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: So it's all fucking money? That's all this is to you?
Carmela: After all we've been through is it so hard to own up to that bullshit tax return?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You want money? What about the forty grand you stole from the bird feeder? You're such an investment genius
Carmela: You want this to get ugly? Because these guys live for that
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: And you think I don't? 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 in that mansion in your five hundred dollar shoes and diamond rings and you act like butter wouldn't melt in your mouth, you don't want it to get ugly? Too late
Carmela: I want what I'm entitled to

- Find he'll ask the same question every three minutes? What time it is?
- I don't know. Maybe, yeah.
- It's frustrating, I know.
- The last thing I wanted to do was get in the middle of a family squabble.
- I just wanted to say hello.
- Well, nice seeing you.
- Okay.
- All right. Thanks.

- Conspiracy theories now?
- Why not?
- Create a little dysentery among the ranks?
- First of all, the place is swept once a week.
- Second of all, there's a lot more interesting shit...
- Being talked about in there besides Ginny sack's fat ass.
- Sil, the liquor inspector's here.

- Doctor says, "I see the problem."
- Chinaman says, "what?"
- Doctor says, "you have a cataract."
- The chinaman says,
- "no, I have a rincoln continental."
- You don't get it?
- I get it. He drives a Lincoln.
- What?

Tony: [to Paulie] You let that dry before you put on the second coat? Grandpa Munster over here.

- You're covered by the sheetrock and plasterers' union, right?
- Here.

- Sil hit him first.
- Tony, let me just...
- That's right, ton', you go.
- You don't know nothin'.
- You were right. They kill a made guy, this is what happens.
- Say hello to gab.
- Tell her I hope she's over the flu.
- Goddamn vito!

- Everybody knows you've been the biggest fucking cooze hound around...
- The past four or five years.
- Your midlife crisis.
- You'd fuck a catcher's mitt.
- On everything I hold sacred...
- On my children...
- There's nothing going on between me and Adriana.

- Really?
- Absolutely.
- I've talked to her professors.
- They say she does all her work and makes insightful contributions.
- I am glad to hear you say that.
- I was worried about her adjusting.
- Let's not tell her.
- We don't want her overconfident.
- She sleeps an awful lot.
- They all do.

- Where is he?
- He's in your office, on the phone with his girlfriend.
- Hey, ton, how's it going?
- You can take the night off. I'll spell you.
- No, no, no, ton, that's all right.
- It's okay, really.
- I'll take over, okay, for tonight.
- Okay, well, night, Mrs. S.
- Good night, Benny. Thank you.

- I can't!
- Why not?
- I'm shy.
- The boss of this family told you you're gonna be Santa claus, you're Santa claus.
- So, shut the fuck up about it.

Tony: The story you heard, with the pool?
Carmela: Oh my God, please
Janice: What?
Carmela: No, you don't wanna know: Pradeep, our pharmacist was at a pool party. All the kids were playing in the water adults were all around having drinks, barbequing. Somehow, even with all of these people around, this three-year-old child managed to fall into the pool. Nobody even noticed until they finally found him floating face down in the water
Tony: Brain dead
Carmela: Poor kid's in one of those padded wheelchair now
Tony: I can't get that story out of my mind. I don't know why.

Christopher: [to Massive Genius] Hesh is the world's sweetest guy. But I've heard his opinions on giving back pieces of Israel. I can only imagine what he's gonna say about this shit.

Paulie: And on it goes this thing of ours."

- He don't know. It's an opinion.
- To tell you the truth, after the other day,
- I really don't wanna say the wrong thing.
- You see? This kid's all right.
- I should get back.
- Ramos will be on my ass.
- Would you forget about ramos, for Christ sakes. I talked to him.
- We got the good doughnuts today.

- And now we're here.
- See you later.
- Who was that?
- My hard-on.
- Between the buddhism and talk about the family, poor you.
- Let me see if it's really gone.
- You lie.

- You remember driving around with that prick in the trunk looking for a spot?
- What was it, like a week before a.J. Was born, right?
- No, Meadow.
- Now she's gonna be a doctor.
- Yeah.
- Remember we took you to luger's after?
- Me, puss, ralphie.

- So I'm holding his hand, and all of a sudden the machines go bullshit.
- You told us, for Christ's sake.
- Those fucking doctors, it's their fault.
- Skip's gonna make it.
- He's conscious.
- Oh, thank god!

- You been away 20 fucking years.
- Which entitles me to earn!
- Which entitles you to shit.
- In my book, you get points for staying out of the can.
- Good thing for me, then, that your book don't mean oogatz to me!
- What's yours is yours, Paulie.
- But what ain't is anybody else's!
- Now, do yourself a fucking favor and get the fuck out of my store!

- We wait till the store closes, we get him out.
- Cut him up in the work area?
- No more of that.
- Uh, DNA.
- Ditch his car, get some biangaleen.

- Hmm?
- Nice.
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- You bottomed out.
- What do you mean?
- You bottomed out.

- I don't know.
- Not to me, he's not.
- Well, [do know. And I know what kind of a man he is.
- Don't ever forget it.
- Uncle pussy? What's the matter?
- Nothing.

Tony: [referring to Hugh's accident] How's your father?
Carmela: much better: He'll be fine for the party, thank God
Tony: That's good, what party?
Carmela: Seventy fifth birthday, the surprise party we talked about last summer?
Tony: Oh, yeah, that's coming up?
Carmela: Yeah, next Saturday but actually, that's why I wanted to come by, I think it maybe it would be best... easier anyway for both of us if I went at it alone and not have you there?
Tony: Oh, yeah
Carmela: You know my father would love to have you there, you know? His crazy about your sausages and all the rest of it but I thought that's why it would put "us" and people in a "uncomfortable" situation?
Tony: I decided when I woke up that I wasn't coming
Carmela: Really? I'm so glad you understand: it was hard for me to come to this decision let alone tell you
Tony: [while taking money out] I'd like to contribute anyway
Carmela: No, mom and I are taking care of it
Tony: For Hugh's seventy fifth? I insist
Carmela: You know, I'd rather see you go back to your therapist
Tony: [angrily] I'd like to see you go see a therapist and I'm not the only one
Carmela: Oh, really? Well, you can tell them all that I can't afford it
Tony: Well, it's really not your "business" anymore whether I go or what

Carmela: Tony, these kids need a father!
Tony: They got one, Tony Soprano!

Dr. Uri Rosen: [Giving him his prognosis] I wish I had better news, based on the latest pictures the cancer has continued to metastasize from the lungs we. We now show masses in the Mediastinal lymph nodes both kidneys, and the brain
Johnny: The headaches, so the lobotomy, radiation, the God damn chemo. What was all that? For kicks?
Dr. Uri Rosen: Those were our options at the time
Johnny: Now what are our options?
Dr. Uri Rosen: Limited to the extent that I wouldn't recommend any. At this point we're looking at stage four small cell carcinoma of the lungs
Johnny: And there is no stage five
Dr. Uri Rosen: That's correct
Johnny: [Referring his life expectancy] how long?
Dr. Uri Rosen: Difficult to say, I have seen miracles over the years
Johnny: Forget the miracles
Dr. Uri Rosen: Three months: give or take

- -Yeah.
- I had a meeting down here with Carlo this morning.
- We were supposed to go see butch and them on a couple of items.
- Carlo didn't show.
- And he don't answer his phones neither.
- I'll call you back on the prepay.

- David? Are you down there?
- Be right up!
- What are you doing?
- Fixing the fucking light bulb!
- It glares off the ball when I rack!
- Jesus, okay.
- You're always worried about ruining the felt.

Tony: I gotta be honest with you. I'm not getting any satisfaction from my work either.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Why?
Tony: Well, because of RICO.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Is he your brother?
Tony: No. The RICO statutes?
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Oh.
[chuckles]
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Of course, right.

- All right, stop.
- I'm grateful to you.
- I am.
- I gave you five percent on the action that was left to you.
- Kick it up to seven and a half.
- Don't sell drugs on those routes.
- It's short-sighted.

- I know who you are.
- And I saw analyze this.
- I don't need the ramifications that could arise from treating someone...
- Like yourself.
- Analyze this?
- It's a comedy.
- I'm not taking new patients.

- A little of that's probably my fault, anyway.
- It's an epidemic, right?
- You really think that's it?
- Yeah.
- It's probably the beginning of menopause, like you said.
- All right, you go have a good time.
- Thanks.

Carmela: You know what the church says about divorce...
Angie: Oh, *please*! Let the Pope live with him.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Genetic predispositions are only that: predispositions. It's not a destiny written in stone. People have choices.
Tony: She finally offers an opinion!
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: You think that everything that happens is preordained? You don't think that human beings possess free will?
Tony: How come I'm not making freakin' pots in Peru? You're born to this shit. You are what you are.
Dr. Jennifer Melfi: Within that, there is a range of choices. This is America!
Tony: Right... America.

- I mean, you know, in the papers, you read they always leave a note.
- She did leave a note on her desk.
- The police took it.
- Later they told us it was just copy for a classified ad.
- She was selling her wolf stole.
- Anyway, let me give you my card.

Tony: [Meeting outside the hospital] not even a courtesy call and you approach my company?
Phil: No disrespect Tony, you've been in a coma
Tony: So that gives you Carte blanche?
Paulie: It's that fuckin John, his sitting in the can, the Feds are trying to take everything his got. His in a panic state
Tony: Alright I'm sensitive to that but whatever happens to Barone Sanitation, I've got to be kept on. I need that W-2 and now you can see I'm facing a long convalescence and Barone is my secondary insurance carrier. I need it
Phil: John's going to take care of you, you know that. What your asking: twenty-five percent of the sales price, a year's salary until retirement, plus skim? Come on
Tony: [Eventually turns to Paulie and asks him] look, I don't want to argue. I'm not well so I'll give John a break on the skim. I'm getting two G's a week now
Tony: [to Paulie] how many stops we based that on?
Paulie: [after Tony asks him a second time catching him off guard] eleven
Tony: The fuck you talking about? It's at least twenty-five
Paulie: [to Phil before his cell phone rings] twenty-five
Tony: Alright I'll take the skim on twenty, fifteen hundred a week but I stay on the payroll as is
Phil: All I can do is deliver the message Anthony

- Okay, phase one, sign here...
- And there...
- And here.
- And...
- That's it.

Corrado: I'm sick and tired of him. Having to make excuses for him all the time.
Mikey: It isn't right.
Corrado: 'Cause he's a fuckin' mental weakling.
Mikey: I know.
Corrado: You don't know shit, Mikey! He's seeing a psychiatrist, for Christ's sake. How about that, huh? My nephew is seeing a psychiatrist! Makes me wanna cry.
Mikey: No shit.
Corrado: Indictments being prepared. He's spilling his guts.
Mikey: I fuckin' knew it.
Corrado: No you didn't fuckin' know it! I just told you! God knows how much of our family business he airs, if the place is bugged.
Mikey: That stuff's not admissible. It's that, uh, that doctor-patient privilege just like us and Melvoin.
Corrado: Melvoin's a lawyer. He's in the fuckin' ballpark. Suppose this shrink gets scared or something. You remember those two fuckin' Escobedo brothers, whoever the fuck, in California? They whacked their parents? The shrink was in the fuckin' witness chair.
Mikey: Shit.
Corrado: Anthony wants to play games. OK. I taught him games. I taught him how to play baseball.
Mikey: You're talking about clipping him?
Corrado: Nobody would slap my wrist if I did.

Ron: The federal prosecutors and myself have been told to clear our calendars for the next five months so trial is upon us and the Feds have reached a complete accounting of your worth
[shows him his financial statements]
Johnny: [Looking through his financial statements] The vintage Wurlitzer? They go through my fucking sock drawer?
Ron: They shot a video the day of your arrest they even tracked down the one hundred eighty thousand in Boca Raton under your father's name they estimate your net worth at five million
Johnny: While Ginny lives on scraps
Ron: Between your cash and portfolios with Fidelity and Vanguard your 401k and severance from Essany scaffolding condo in Deal Beach at four hundred fifty, Maserati, Ginny's Yukon and your house and its contents valued at one million two hundred thousand
Johnny: Is all this part of your plan? To make me so depressed I'd hang myself?
Ron: It's my obligation to raise again the idea of cooperating
Johnny: Flip? Let me explain something to you again, but differently, being a rat where I come from, is like asking someone like you to be a fucking Nazi and I don't want to hear that shit again
Ron: Good because I don't represent turn coats
Johnny: Because it would kill your practice

- If I had made that joke about other groups...
- Represented at this table...
- I would be called a bigot.
- I meant Italian reds.
- Still, it must be fascinating work.
- It is.

- Come.
- It's all right.
- Listen, I don't mean to be a pest...
- But your guys...
- I'll take care of that.
- This is not the fiber optics.
- I'm talking about the floor tiles.
- What floor tiles?
- Last night, somebody hijacked a trailer.
- The truck crushed a shed on its way out too.

- Fuck of a way for it all to end, huh?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- These guys, on either side of me?
- They're asleep.
- Don't say that.
- It's not fucking funny.
- I want to see you flopping around down there!

- Catch you later.
- Take it easy, ton.

Christopher: So, you won't talk about this to anybody?
Credenso: I got the mouth of a statue, nigga.

Rusty: Angelo here spoke very highly of you and how you handled yourself in Pennsylvania, that's why I wanted to meet you
Angelo: [Referring to the slang term used to describe two people closely associated as to be indistinguishable] We were like "Frick and Frack" in the can
Tony: Angelo's my buddy
Rusty: So how your reentry going? Doing ok?
Tony: Yeah, Tony's been good with me
Rusty: I always liked your cousin
Angelo: His a real gentlemen
Rusty: Angelo's looking out for you too
Angelo: I told Rusty you might need a little "earn"
Tony: Well, yeah I could use a little cash injection, maybe a little push up the pyramid, you know "time served"
Angelo: We need something done
Rusty: A nice little payday for you and an opportunity to hone that rep you left behind
Tony: And this involves?
Angelo: Somebody needs to go
Tony: Anyone I know?
