The actor (Joe something) called in The Howard Stern show this morning after they started talking about last night's episode. He said something about how he read a book a few years ago about a gay mafia member and how the family handled it. He brought it up to the writers back then, and last year, when they started asking him about the book, he realized something was up.
Spoiler:
He also mentioned how he was going to meet with Chase and the other writers soon to see where his character will be going (does that mean his character will live long enough, or is he making stuff up?)


It was a real entertaining, quick interview. And Joe also said how he's lost 90 lbs since that episode was shot, by exercise and watching what he eats. Good for him.

That guy could lose 190 and still be grossly overweight

BTW, it seems because Adriana is so concerned about Chris, she'll call in a favor with the FBI and sink Tony B's new casino.

BTW II, Didnt I tell you Tony missed the heist for a reason other than the one he's been telling for years.

He must be on Atkins. I could see he was getting his protein last night.

Oh and is it ironic that Vito was the guy that whacked Jackie Jr. and now Finn is afraid of him?

For the first time last night I noticed that Meadow has nice child bearing hips.

I think Vito was hitting on Finn.

He assumed that since Finn showed up to work early, he was looking for a little man-on-man action too.

Brutal! That seriously made me laugh out loud.

I don't know if she is still anorexic/bulimic, but I'm sure she still has issues with it. I thought she was sort of a spokeswoman for the cause these days.

I definitely think that Finn proposed to Meadow for two reasons, 1. to shut her the hell up and get some sleep, and 2. for protection. He saw how Paulie completely changed his attitude towards him after finding out he was Meadow's boyfriend. I'm sure he could put two and two together. Vito giving that guy a BJ was probably the most surprising thing I have seen in a while. I definitely didn't see that coming, especially after he kept calling Andriana when Chris was in rehab.

I think Johnny is going to find out about Tony's lie real soon. That coupled with Chris's frustration and jealousy will lead to a huge war between NJ and NY.

I wonder if Vito ever swapped salami with Ralphie when he was part of Ralphie's crew? Remember how Ralphie had Janice give him a little dildo action? This could make for a gross flashback scene.

Another clue to Vito hitting on Finn was when he was admiring how he looked like Joe Perry from Aerosmith.

What about the Fact that Finn didn't ask Tony's permission to propose.... I mean, look how angry he got at dinner. This is a much bigger act of disrespect than that.

You ever see Joe Perry? Not a very flattering comparison .

I really think Vito wants to make sure he scares the crap out of Finn so bad that he never talks about what he saw because, let's face it, Vito's life will be worth spit if it ever got out that he's in to men. So now:

Vito kills Finn.
Meadow realizes the truth
Meadow tells Tony
Tony investigates
Tony talks to Melfi
Tony kills Vito
Repurcussions abound
Tony talks to Melfi
Meadow gets a boyfriend
Repeat

I doubt the guy is that smart, besides his character doesn't seem that shallow. I mean this guy said he didn't want to take a job a minority could have. (but he does he do work at a construction site LOL)

and I agree, something is going to happen between Tony S and Johny S, I can't believe Tony lied about being with his cousin, what a dumbass!

It was pretty stupid of Tony to lie about being with Tony B that night.... all he had to say was "If Tony B was in that town that night I had nothing to do with it"

Entire storyline is dropped for the introduction of a new character that adds nothing to the story, yet instead of giving this character 5 minutes per episode over 9 episodes, the character gets 40 minutes in a single episode and is never heared from again
Fixed

It's also a little funny that Tony S. always lied and said he missed out on the job b/c he was jumped by some black guys. Tony B. told the same type of lie when Tony S. asked him how he hurt his leg at the start of the show.

Tony would never sell out a member of his crew to the head of another crew, especially a New York crew. Is that what you expected him to do? Basically leave a member of his (mob) family and blood relative blowing in the wind? Of course Tony is going to lie for one of his own. He would have lied if it would have been Chrissie or Paulie or whoever. That's just how it works.

I don't know, I think Tony is being extra-protective of Tony B because of his guilt. I mean, if anyone else in his crew messed up like that, they'd probably have to pay for it one way or another.

Also, it was just stupid of him to say he was with Tony B somewhere else, since we now know of at least 2 witnesses (Tony S and Johnny Sack both heard it was Tony B from different sources, right?).

Enjoyed this episode quite a bit. It's always cool to see an outsider slowly find out what's really going on.
