Featured reviews
The dialogue is so so damn good and i also like the scene in the end which is a little godfather reference i think.
Tony really gets to shine in this episode with some great insults and moments that shows his inner struggles that he wont alaways admit, but than you can see and feel! There really are some great and funny lines of dialogue!
I loved the scenes with Jackie too! The subbtle details showing how he might be in shock that his time is up at some point!
The emding was where the show REALLY steps up! No mercy! No compromise! Its Television at its finnest!
There are many great things about this episode--I don't know which is better, the line above or the "nurse" who visits Jackie Aprile in the hospital (I think it's the nurse).
The ending is awesome as Junior sends a message to Tony's crew over the strains of Meadow's choir group's haunting song (a la "The Godfather"). Great episode--one of the many that first season that got me hooked. I miss the Mikey Palmice character--he was whacked too soon.
