Putting the picture in spoilers too, for reasons you'll understand if you look at it.
Only six left after this one.

Nah people are still watching Entourage up until 10 minutes ago.
I liked it - not the best episode, but a lot of development.
That last scene with Paulie and Tony on the boat was some tense shit. And hey, there was some killing to satisfy the mob war hounds. Win-win!

I loved the old photo's they were excellent, looks like tony is done living in the past, and is ready to make some choices, he was testing paulie on the boat, and I think paulie passed.
But he is such a fucking stupid big mouth, the end were he was dreaming about pussy was great!

For a second, I thought Pauly was a goner. He's not going down for sure, if they kill someone, it's going to be a person we care for or least suspect. Pauly was too obvious.

If that's the case, they missed a great episode in my eyes. Junior's friend getting a taste of the action, which was a handful of buttons of course, was classic. "You earned it."

Since when did Paulie become such a blabbermouth. After 6 seasons seems like the writers decided to make him talk so much just to give Tony a reason to think about killing him. He was never like that before.

I lost it when Paulie was cracking up at Three's Company.
Also, it was great to see Junior in his last days basically being a Boss.
I don't think it'll take much to send T over the edge with Paulie.
I was surprised that Tony was yacking it up with that chick he banged after chastising Paulie for that very thing. She had to be working with the feds with all those questions.

Isn't that the first time Tony's cheated on Carm since they got back together, at least that they have shown? Wasn't that kind of glossed over, especially since they made such a big deal out of it when he didn't cheat with that realtor?

Pretty tense episode. I knew, as soon as it was pet day, that Corrado would have a 'pussy' cat after getting his ass kicked by the Asian guy.
Interesting how this season has pretty much centered on one character per episode. First, the Bobby show, then the Chris show, and now the Paulie show. Although there has been some pretty important developments and action involving other characters, they have still seemed peripheral to the episodes.

Of course, Ralphie has been dead, and now Johnny is dead, and it's relatively moot. But it's not about the writers manufacturing a reason for conflict between Tony and Paulie; if they wanted to do that, they'd just have Paulie do something in the first five minutes of the episode to piss Tony off. That doesn't work because Paulie is not the catalyst. Paulie is the same as he's always been, but he's annoying to Tony because of where Tony is in his existential crisis.
If he seems different, it's because Tony is the point of identification and he's seeing Paulie differently. Stuff he wouldn't have noticed is now bothering him. Paulie is a sad old man who knows he's seen his best days, and is living in the past, and that bugs Tony, because Paulie's decline says something to him about his own mortality.

Great post. I agree the Tony is just more aware of Paulie's annoying mouth and that Paulie has always "been Paulie". As mentioned earlier the conversation with the Call Girl Tony had was weird. At first I was thinking it could be some set up(FBI informant) thing but who knows...

"He is a stand up guy............oh sorry!"
"Chevy Chase....what the fuck ever happened to him?"
This episode showed that Tony still cares about Paulie, more cause he admired him as a kid working with his dad, but he realizes Paulies days as an earner are way past, and that is the reason he wanted to knock him off on the boat, Paulie just being annoying was just a part of that reason. It is always about the money with Tony, remember how he wanted to keep Vito alive last year after the gay stuff came out, cause he was a good earner.
Follow the money.
