[@SmilingSynic]

Pay attention--this is one of the most telling scenes in the whole series. It is a scene of contrasts--Carmine, the completely stoic and unemotional old school boss who is all business, and Johnny Sack, the future Mafia boss who lets his emotions control him and is willing to make bad decisions because of that flaw. Carmine's death marks a turning point in the series. When Johnny becomes boss, he put his lust for control over business, thereby marking the decline of both the Lupertazzi and the Soprano families. In some ways it is a metaphor for the Mob itself, since once the old school bosses like Carlo Gambino died off, the undisciplined bosses like John Gotti took over, and the Mob has never been the same since.

I agree with Phatohobic but at the same time, I think it’s made clear as the thread of this plot line progresses that JS was genuinely angered over the woman he loved being insulted.

[@Guamparrapo83]

[@steveaustin3580]

I'd say it really was about the wife considering that when he found out that she was breaking her diet he decided to forgive the whole thing because he believed she was genuinely trying her hardest to lose the weight in the first place and yet he accepted her for who she was all along but also thought that she was being unnecessarily picked on until he realized she truly wasn't putting the effort he thought she was.

Ginny never even heard the joke and Ralph was always polite to her in person.

[@RKsolid5586]

Another Godfather quote relevant to this discussion: "I don't like violence. I'm a business man. Blood is a big expense". If you whack a made guy from another Family, a high earning capo no less, there better be a good reason. The fallout from a war could cost you more than those words cost John. We see in S6 how sick the NY guys are of Phil's war, even though it was much more justified at the beginning than this.

[@silversnail1413]

Carmine actually took a big risk on this one. Emotional or not, Johnny was one of his closest guys and very valuable to his organization. Johnny still felt insulted after this and was even planning to whack Carmine in the Season 4 finale before the hit was called off. Carmine dies of a stroke in the Season 5 premiere but if he'd lived I'm pretty sure Johnny would have ended up killing him eventually, especially once he had Phil backing him up. Why risk the loyalty of one of your closest guys just to protect a piece of shit like Ralph Cifaretto? Ralph was pretty much a dead man walking at this point anyway since he was making enemies left and right.

[@donectandemperveniamincael1783]

+pavel brodskiy It's Little Carmine Jr., Carmine's son that Tony and Johnny Sack considered an idiot, not Carmine Sr.

[@pavelbrodskiy7216]

They also implied that Carmine Sr. was an idiot when Tony referred to Little Carmine as "Brainless the Second". It was never verbalized maybe but Tony and Johnny Sack didn't really take him Carmine Sr. seriously.

[@JimmyJam1125]

Disagree. Carmine was The Boss. Who was treated 100% seriously by Tony and even by underboss Stack.

[@pavelbrodskiy7216]

I kinda disagree with that since Johnny Sack was ready to undermine Carmine Sr. by (almost) going thru with the Ralph Cifaretto hit, thereby directly disobeying Carmine's orders not to touch Ralph. Sack and Tony were inches away from whacking him if Tony hadn't backed out last minute. Don't get me wrong, I loved Carmine Sr, and I thought he was an awesome boss, I just don't think he was respected by Sack.

[@MatthewMopo]

As Carmine sips his coffee, to think, you can hear the construction. He’s thinking about the esplanade

This is the difference between Johnny Sack and Carmine as Bosses. Carmine always acted like a ‘Boss’ and it created stability during his long reign. Johnny was always up and down as a Boss and his reign was always unstable, wasn’t as long and led to an eventual war after his departure.
