Tony And Bobby Found Christopher And Paulie, The Sopranos HD

[@lawrencelewis8105]

I recall how Tony was amused at how Bobby was dressed in the beginning of this. He's the only one dressed properly for being out in the woods.

[@DemocratsareagentsofSATAN]

in the behind the scenes episodes, you find out why Tony was actually laughing so hard at Bobby's outfit.... he was wearing a huge black dildo around his waist......of course, WE the audience don't see that....but that's why he was laughing......look it up...true story.... James Gandolfini was apparently having a rough day....and he told Steve Schirripa "you better make me laugh in the next scene" So Steve asked someone on the crew to find him a huge black dildo..................................................

[@jentertainment1012]

[@JohnMatz]

Well he did apologize and say it couldn’t be helped. What more did Tony want?!? Seriously though, he’s mad because in his mind this wasn’t his problem in the first place and he was stuck doing someone else’s (Sil’s) collection. Now Tony is telling him if this guy crawls out from under a pine tree and comes back to start trouble that Paulie is on his own and Tony’s not going to war with Russian Mob or whomever this guy is connected with to save his ass. Tony also likely knows (through Sil) that this should’ve been an easy collection and that Paulie screwed it up by antagonizing the guy.

[@katana2k]

He’s upset about his lot in life. He is, as he said, half-a-wiseguy. Middle management in the mob, in the game longer than most of his peers, and still rolling around in the dirt with nothing to show for it. He might make excuses, but he knows hes an idiot and that this is about as far as he can really go.

All they had to do was put universal remote back on docking station

[@MasterManto]

Yeah, this was all Paulie. Even Christopher called him out in the apartment on his bullshit with breaking the remote. He gave them the money. All he asked was for Paulie to put the remote back on the docking station. These egos, man... Like when Christopher and Paulie killed that waiter.

[@francoochoa3176]

He either bled out or he climbed a tree, then took paulies car and the money and skipped town, but if he did live he would’ve prob told Slava, them being close friends and all. But the Russian guy probably saw a way out and took it, he’s probably down in boco or Florida Edit: boca*

[@pookiebenny7819]

TwistedNIPZ 718 I read somewhere idk where but supposedly that he did take Paulie’s car and drove to a town but when he got there due to being shot in the head and loss of memory he didn’t remeber a lot of things or something like that I forgot

[@houseviceroy]

I read that that chase said the russian walked into a group of cub scouts or mountain scouts and they got him medical attention, the rest is history

[@menopassini9348]

So do many Sopranos fans. This pissed off Chase. This episode writer Winter who wrote many of the series best liked stories wanted to do a follow up for the fans. Chase agreed at first then changed his mind. This vignette was going to be in the final episode, which many fans found disappointing and anticlimactic. This was the scene and plot line behind it. The Injured Russian is found laying in the snow by Boy Scouts and their troop leaders. They call the phone number that they find in the injured Russian's pocket. The Russian mob boss comes out and brings him to the hospital for brain surgery then sends him to recover in Russia. Yrs later Tony and Christopher go see the Russian M. Boss and the Big Russian is sweeping the floor not recognizing Christopher because of the damage from the head shot. A lot of holes in that scene, like isn't Christopher dead by then. Why not call the ambulance first, where were the cops w/ gun shot wound victim and who took Paulie's car. Should be injuried Russian circled around took Paulie's car and hooked up with his Boss. The Big disabled Russian sweeping the floor would made the final show more interesting and bring closure.

[@Pochonesian]

I don’t think every event NEEDS closure. That’s what makes the show great and REAL. Things in life don’t always end with us having the answers. They bring up the Russian many times after this and it helped build the tension between Chris and Paulie. The fact that no one (including us) knew what happened to him gave a feeling of uneasiness. Like he could show up at any time. Theorizing what happened is fun to me. I also like to imagine what Ercoli DiMeo was like. The boss before Jackie Aprile. Referred to as “the old man”. Chances are he was still alive in prison by the last season. He was just a little older than Junior. I wonder why no one ever spoke to him or about him. Jackie couldn’t have been acting boss that long... even Carmine Sr. Never mentioned him.

He overreacted because Schirripa came through the door wiggling a giant purple dildo to get a reaction from Gandolfini.

@@darth856 yes, you understand. That unwritten take was then incorporated by the writers going forward - Tony laughed at Bobby's outfit. That's why there is another scene where he references laughing at Bobby. So Tony (not Gandolfini) laughed at Bobby (not Schirripa). Its canon.

With the wide spread theory that Paulie and/or Patsy made a deal with Butch to take out Tony in the final episode, I think the seeds for that dissent began here with Paulie. He saw how little value Tony showed him, and the actor playing Paulie says a lot with his face without saying it out loud…

Unfortunately the idea was dropped and instead added as an Easter egg when Christopher befriends that writer that is making a movie about a "mafia serial killer"

Does anybody want to know the meaning behind Tony telling Pauly: "You got mayo on your chin." (?) 1. Tony was letting Pauly know: "I'm watching you CLOSELY for slip up's even when you're not aware of it." 2. "You made yourself look ridiculous to your Boss, which is STILL Me. If you make another mistake, it's not gonna get past me." 3. Pauly really DID have Mayo on his chin.

This was the beginning of the end of respect for Paulie.

[@KOOTIES510]

1:41 the way Christopher eats his sandwich and looks at Paulie 😂

[@jmunnyrulz6175]

One of the best episodes of the series and they never followed up.

[@kathconserv]

Jmunny Rulz what happened to pauly’s care and where’s the Russian?

[@rogue7894]

Love Bobby's definitive answer: "Hard to say. Flesh would maybe. Head shot I don't know. On the other hand anything's possible...."

[@KSFWG]

Paulie should have listened to Clemenza in The Godfather... "Take the money. Leave the universal remote on the docking station."

[@Dots.000]

😂

[@mcragwe]

One of the best episodes....the look on the face of Paulie at the end is priceless....

Best episode

Phil made those grilled cheese sandwiches on his radiator and put them in his shine box specially for Pauline

[@Aven-Sharma1991]

These guys were an insult to the Mafia. It was Paulie who started this whole nonsense when he broke Valery's universal remote. Chrissy had the money in his hand, but it was because of Paulie that this entire thing happened. In fact both of these guys were the most whackable characters on the show. Paulie with his incessant chattering & Chrissy with his narcotics issue. You need people who are efficacious soldiers in your family.

[@HookedOnSonics518]

I agree 100%. Paulie had plot armor in this show like you wouldn't believe. He should have been whacked for turning snitch on Tony to Johnny Sack.

It's called comic relief...look it up

ll विनी शर्मा ll Having served eight years in the US Army it is my opinion that there are way more fuck ups than squared types. Most of the time you just have to pray😒that the shit really DOESN'T hit the fan..

[@cocokai9661]

The vast majority of prison inmates test at or just above mental retardation. The criminal element is not populated by brilliant people. Brilliant people can become a success in legitimate ways. So the pool of people any criminal enterprise is drawing from is going to be full of morons to begin with. The mafia is and always has been a group of fuck ups and incompetents. I think this is one thing the Sopranos did well. Depicted them as a bunch of idiots who survive by a combination of ruthlessness, police incompetence/indifference and dumb luck. When the luck runs out, they have little in the way of skills/intelligence to survive the fallout.

[@chrisdozier6757]

The look on Paulie’s face always gets me.

[@joes3844]

This was the beginning of the end of Tony and Pauly relationships

[@Janon48]

I think the end was Paulie realizing that Tony don’t really give a fuck about him.

[@bleewicket]

“He killed 16 Czechoslovakians! The guy was an interior decorator!”

1:54 Paulie basically has to accept being heavily taxed or killed if he shows up alive.

[@shimatetsuo2019]

Bobby should have instead said: “Look for him?! Of course he survived, Paulie’s car (and money) are gone!!”

Paulies face at the end though..lol
