This is my favorite episode of this season that I've seen.
Spoiler:
It got so intense at the end when both Ralph and Johnny Sack were about to be assasinated. Ralph was saved literally 15 seconds before being killed.

Darn I couldn't help but read Blaster1's spoilers. Anyway, sounds like a great episode.

I remember the scene at the dinner table when Ralphie told the joke, but don't remember the joke. Does anyone remember it?

Something about Johnny Sack's wife getting a 95 lb. wart removed from her ass.

Extremely well played out. Great reactions all around.

Ralph's attitude at the end of the scene was great, considering the situation.......

I was very pleased with the episode as well. After the endless setups from the first three episodes, you finally get the feeling this season's starting to pay off.

Wow...a fantastic episode!

IMO, this was one of the finest hours of The Sopranos to date.
Amazing how so much can be told and happen over a joke...simply amazing.

I am just going to put last weeks episode in the back of my mind, because this episode left me breathless.

The ending was fantastic. (except for the Meadow's music, which ruined the moment)

I'm guessing that grunter is happy about the shirtless Tony scene.

After last week I wondered for a moment if they were losing it a little....and then this episode - one of the best yet!!! Just an incredible episode all around.

"I'm so bored i feel like crying"

So what will happen with the Long Island fellas you think? or will that be left hanging like the Russian from Pine Barrens?

conscience,
I'm not sure if you picked up on it...but meadow's music is turned off. The music heard in the end while Tony is on top of Carmella, is the same music that Carmella and Furio danced to. It wasn't Tony that Carmella was thinking about at that moment.

Was the music really playing? Or was it only playing in Carmella's head?

Spoiler:
Was anyone else waiting for Carmella to call out Furio's name there at the end? When the music started in the background, that's what I was expecting.

Next time I'm with a woman who complains about not enough foreplay, I'm showing her that clip of Tony )

I was waiting for the same thing.

Overall I thought is was a pretty good episode especially the drama that ensued between Jonny and Ralphie.

Based on the previews for next week looks like Janice got her hooks into Bobby. Poor guy!

I thought those guys were up in New England (was it Providence?). In any case, I'd assume the same thing happens with them as happened with the would-be Ralph shooter. They keep the up-front half of the cash and have to do nothing.

This episode just made me want to whack somebody, anybody.

I thought I was watching 3rd grade re-lived by mobsters.

The end with Carmela not really into having sex with Tony was creepy.
