THE SOPRANOS - Long term parking ending

[@allovdem]

The sudden realisation from the female FBI officer about the fate of Adriana always stuck with me. She actually convinced herself that Adriana fled the country because she didn't want to accept the obvious truth.

[@johnwayne8494]

She had more empathy than the others.

In complete denial. The FBI couldn't protect ANY of their cooperating witnesses in the Sopranos' universe.

[@louisastuto2878]

Remember how many ppl in the show fell for stories like this after loved ones disappeared? You would think an FBI agent would be “wiser”, but once you get close to someone your brain does not want to accept they are are gone, you would rather believe a lie than face the truth. Deep down all these ppl knew whoever was “missing” was dead, they knew It was part of the game.

[@kmckeown84]

One of the best acted scenes by anyone ever. “Absolutely” that weird voice the sound of trying to hide the crying inside and to appear normal and focused but in reality inside you’re falling apart. Guilt , panic , sadness , disgust, regret , remorse. James showed all of that in a few words and a 30 second scene.

[@rhbb871]

It's always fascinated me why Tony seems overwhelmed by sadness here. I don't think you can say it was because he had feelings for Adriana, that's a little too simplistic. You notice his expression really changes when Carmela mentions money. I think, spurred on by the recent murder of Adriana and the mention of this 'investment', Tony has a sudden awareness of who he really is. He hates that there is so much misery in the world, but to be reminded that he essentially murdered a beautiful young woman to protect himself and his livelihood (so that he can afford to make investments like these), makes him aware that he actually plays a large part in the suffering of humanity; not only is life depressing, he collectively makes it worse.

Best episode in the series. Tony realises that the chance of his onward path perhaps being altered by coming to terms with who he is is shattered. Adriana's death represents the death of innocence, as she was arguably the most simple, naive but innocent person on the show. It's ironic that the most measured, level headed, member of the mob (Silvio Dante) kills the innocent party, as even he is lead to believe that what he is doing is right. I can't describe how amazing this show is, easily surpasses any other show in quality of acting, writing, and just simple consistency.

I remember thinking when this episode originally aired that it was perhaps the best hour of human drama I'd ever seen on television, far superior to not only any episodic tv but also the vast majority of cinema. And this ending, it was and still to this day is, like a gut punch coming after the events we just witnessed in the preceding hour. Now, basically a dozen years later (time really does fly), the episode and these closing moments still effect me the same way. What a testament to the brilliant writing/acting/directing. In the twelve years since this first aired only one other hour of television in my books reached the level of dramatic excellence achieved here, the episode "ozymandias" in Breaking Bad's final season.

[@Klynch111]

Ozymandius was the best episode of breaking bad Hands down, cranston was even more epic then usual

[@ANGELSLVME]

Mattcast G I also loved the episodes “irregular around the margins”, and Carmelo getting her groove back in “Sentimental education “

[@sakuraba86]

I agree. The Sopranos is the best show ever. It is altogether better than Breaking Bad. But the best hour of television I've ever seen is "Ozymandias."

[@Ratchet2431]

I don't know. Mad Men's The Suitcase also reaches that level in my opinion.

[@aliensconfirmed3498]

Ozymendias doesn't really reach this or some other episodes on Sopranos. The basic story or characters or themes of breaking bad don't have so much depth to bring about effect like this. It doesn't feel very real either. Sopranos on the other hand is so true to life it's like real life playing in front and not fictional events with fictional characters.

[@StenoFusco85]

I was so sorry to hear about Gandolfini's departure a few years ago, he was such a great actor to me.... His acting in this series was so deep and well done that I could relate to his character so much, I'm not talking about the topic of the series (mafia and all) but about Tony Soprano's persona, I think he went far beyond typical stereotypes and represented a sort of condition of humanity. This scene right here, like many others, are real TV masterpieces to me, when I think about this series I remember all of these wonderful tunes and scenes, they're wrapped in my memory....

I think so as well, "Long Term Parking" is one of the most haunting episodes besides the final episode of the series. The song at the end is so perfectly fitting and I have grown to like the artist who sings this song...I love when he sings in chorus (yeah you're only a memory now!!!) and how more so haunting that this song fits Gandolfini's passing...I can't seem to get this song out of my mind. I hope that some one will upload the entire episode because there are many moments in this one.

N. B. Harris and the boss guy already know that perfectly well, but it's an awkward and excruciating moment since the younger woman who'd been Adriana's handler is suddenly refusing to accept the truth, instead blurting out some nonsense about China. The men realize that she's become emotionally attached to Adriana and they don't know how to respond; when the reality of the situation finally hits, her cool, professional facade flickers and she abruptly walks out without a word, leaving the other agents to awkwardly finish their conversation as if she'd never been there. It's a phenomenal scene because in under a minute it communicates a huge wealth of information about these little side characters as human beings, with a full, tragic mini-narrative playing out right in front of us. And it's immensely humanizing, because you realize OF COURSE any normal, decent human being who spends so much time with one person is going to become attached, no matter the requirements of their job, but the reactions of the more experienced agents indicate that this kind of thing comes with the territory so much that they've learned to shut off their empathy in order to do their jobs. The younger agent's fault is that she wasn't sufficiently cynical, paranoid and detached from her feelings for other human beings, which is a sad state of affairs and yet the cruel reality of the world in some situations.

[@lmm4889]

Eli F Well put. Although to me it's not clear whether the two guys simply don't know how to respond, or if their silence is quite routine and deliberate, a way of saying "no" without actually saying no.

It’s when Carmela mentions money and the investment that he is brought back to reality and has to face what he has just done. Upon questioning himself he cycles through feelings of guilt, remorse, despair, anger, and then is asked the famous words of “you alright?” To which he quickly puts on a persona to reassure her he is just fine-something his facial expressions immediately dismiss as being true.

@@rufdymundwoah never thought about the black bear ! Great analysis

[@patsyparisi2620]

The ending music in each episode was always spot on.

[@trishd5692]

The song is amazing, Shawn Smith I believe. It guts me

[@shalashaska5851]

Yeah. When he says “Absolutely” and the song comes in it’s impossible for me not to lose it.

[@MisterMcKinney]

Tony loved her like a brother-in-law

[@TQmatt]

Excellent.Tony looks up at the woods and trees - what does this tell us? Two things: the memories of himself and his cousin, Tony B, during their childhood, and also, Adriana - a very similar environment where Silvo took her down. All the problems, all the memories, all the conflict lies within the trees, and Tony looks up and almost cries. Amazing.

[@ferchism]

Orange and brown represent Adriana, he was thinking of her in silent mourning. These are the colors she always wore. That's why the orange cat near the end kept staring at Christopher's portrait on the wall. The cat is also used as a bad omen about Paulie's future bc the new position he took on is jinxed, and he's very supersticious.

[@harryantino]

Is Long Term Parking the best episode of them all? Season 5 for me is the best season.

[@SultanKhan66]

I guess the female agent didn't want to accept that she played a role in Adriana's death.

[@mikebowman5819]

What freaking good television this was

[@mksiazenyc5933]

Absolute masterpiece by James Gandolfini ☝️

[@patgogan7324]

Agent harris reaction to she could be in china by now lmao

[@caligula476]

Brilliant how chase combines the woods with the 2 characters that just passed away in the series. Remember the childhood memory Tony had from his youth with Tony. B when they were walking in a forest with the leaves falling. Adrianna was killed in the forest too. Now these two stories are woven together in this masterpiece ending, sitting in the forest waiting to be blackmailed by his hungry for money wife Carmela. Magnificent.

[@TerryKeefeMedia]

Adriana's female FBI handler treated her with such condescension throughout, and now, she wasn't even there to protect her when she was killed. And the boss could care less.

[@DeepScreenAnalysis]

No one cared about Adriana... the only people who did were us, the viewers, and obviously that makes no difference in the context of the show.

[@patgogan7324]

Messylin well her mother cared as well but we didnt see much of her

[@sallas8439]

Business as usual in the FBI

[@RawOne911]

The FBI were portrayed as bad guys in this series.

[@nonyobussiness3440]

Chris did but was to damaged to be there really

[@Francooney]

There will never be another never show as great as the sopranos. And there will be another character as amazing as Tony Soprano and if you disagree with that, that’s good but I’m not running a popularity contest here

[@Jay-n262]

This show had so many great endings especially this episode.

[@juliadegutes3689]

Own all the seasons on dvd. Loved this show

[@alexanderm3504]

Did no body realize they are on the land were they buried Adriana? That's why Tony looked so emotional their

[@shanebracken8358]

The FBI chief was such a hypocrite forcing Adrianna to wear a wire, glad they wrote him out after this episode

[@qwertyytrewq71]

How's he a hypocrite? What did he do that was hypocritical?

[@user-dnf83n0s8sg9u]

Great actor. Honestly I wish he was in 6b a bit (don’t remember if he was)

[@njdrummer7120]

maybe Tony was just thinking about the Johnson Brothers that were buried at Uncle pats farm...

[@waltercolombe6105]

The last shot of Adrianna being killed was of tree tops. This scene began with the same image.You can feel his heavy heart over this connection.

[@diptiranjannayak8892]

People can interpret this scene any way they like but for me it was simple. After all those chaos , especially the brutal cold death of Adrianna this was a place needed for Tony and us viewers. Notice how he took a sit nearby just to look at the beauty of that place? Yeah Carmela was thinking about the buying the place but Tony was just taking a breath of fresh air in the middle of hardships of life he had chosen. Also we all know what did happen after this episode. This was just a calmness before the storm. This is why I hailed this series as the greatest piece of tv show ever made. These subtle details without words what makes it so perfect and personal.

[@adamghani6325]

Devastating episode. Ade was a sweetheart.

[@Madmaki85]

La mejor serie de todos los tiempos,i LOVE tony soprano

[@ThisHandleIsInteresting]

I honestly thought this might have been Goo Goo Dolls, but then listened closely and found the more vintage aspect of it in Shawn Smith's voice.

[@Maxi_Jano]

I don't understand, they bought the property for $600.000, then built the house, and then sold it only to gain $600.000 back

[@stephenwheeler7412]

This scene still gets me 😢

[@josephkyle1557]

RIP Shawn Smith

[@siryizzur]

I just now found out that he had died last year... I hadn't listened to him in a long time... Devastated.

[@ST-ev9th]

1:33 That’s the look of a man who knows he’s about to throw $600k down the piscadoo

[@daseapickleofjustice7231]

Imagine what he could have won if he bet it on the game

[@olliephelan]

I wouldnt be suprised if theres a Sopranos movie in a few years ,. And I havnt seen a single full episode

[@marcbird3784]

Best episode of TV ever and best endin to any episode of all TV history ever

[@colonelbuendias]

On the phone, David Chase would exclaim:"You are like Mozart! You know that?" Followed by silence on the other end.

[@monkeyhammock6233]

After Adriana died, I was already just barely holding it together emotionally but this scene + end credit song fucking killed me. Easily the saddest sopranos episode imo, michael imperioli and drea de Matteo acting master class

[@johnk.7523]

The moment right before this where Tony beats Chrissy also makes this ending hit hard.

[@cletusjones9411]

It’s a gorgeous piece of land. Well worth $600 thousand. Put a dollar value on the world and then kill for it.

[@ken6517]

do they really expect us to believe tony feels any semblance of guilt? this ending still rocks though

[@arshoohanyan754]

Not guilt per se but acknowledging that in the depressing and miserable world they live in, he himself plays a huge part. And there is no redemption for him.

[@johnwayne8494]

I don't know if he feels bad for Adrianna so much as he realizes that he is an unredeemable scumbag for killing an innocent young woman.

[@Surfmus]

Those leaves shoeboxing around, beautiful!

[@RB2331]

Wow,that is right on ...i couldnt have said it better . The look on his face says it all .He is not happy & is really destroyed emotionally about aide & all the others and for what ..some shitty house and a bunch of kids who hate him. The acting is superb & the song closes out a great scene.
