Sopranos Spoiler - Warning....

from a reputable poster on Sopranoland.....





HUGE SPOILER!!!


Don't read the following if you really want to be surprised.











I saw the 1st two episodes and whoever wrote about the hospital scene with AJ...it's true.

Episode one, Junior is worse. His dimentia has gotten out of hand. I don't know how they did this but Junior misplaces his teeth and it looks real! He's also VERY paranoid and thinks everyone is out to get him and his "buried money". Tony, his sister Barbara and Janice (who is a new Mom...she has a baby daughter with Baccala) discuss the assisted living possibility and Tony insists that THEY alone take care of their uncle. In the end, Barbara has to leave Juniors early and Janice can't come over to watch him because of the baby, so Tony angrily leaves his boat (Stugots II) and goes to attend his ailing uncle. While fixing him some pasta, Tony yells upstairs for Junior to come down and eat. Junior comes down confused ( one of the scariest images of Junior with no teeth) and shoots Tony in the stomach. He then runs back upstairs, hides the gun under the bed and himself in the closet...terrified. Tony lays bleeding and trying to crawl to a phone. It's agonizing to see him bleeding to death and unable to reach the phone. The 1st episode ends with Tony losing consciousness.


One of the subplots is quite interesting. I can't remember the older guys name that was a RAT (parisi maybe)the same time Big @#%$ was a working with the FBI...but he goes to give the detectives some tapes and as he's about to spill the beans on a recent event, he keels over and dies. It's funny because no one knows he was a snitch for so long and all the guys at the funeral mention what a standup guy he was. Yeah right.

Another major subplot is Eugene. I don't know if you recall this guy. He was made the same time Chris was. Tall, skinny. He worked under Ralph and then subsequently worked under Vito (Vito has lost a lot of weight and even makes a remark to Janice about killing yourself because of being a closeted homo). Anyway, the entire episode Eugene is trying to "get out of the business". Apparently his aunt recently died and left him over 2 million dollars so he and his family want to start over in Florida. It appears Eugene is trying to go the respectful route and ask Tony straight up if this can happen. Tony keeps blowing him off despite Eugene splurging on gifts for Tony and the family. Eugene's wife adds alot of pressure at home and it seems poor Eugene is in a dilemna and you actually feel sorry for him...until we see him get into a car with the detectives. Turns out he too has been a rat for quite sometime. They also dowse his dreams of moving to Florida because they need him to stay as close to Tony to get info on the family. With no end in sight and Tony ultimately denying Eugene (thru Silvio)...Eugene goes to his basement and hangs himself. Pretty graphic and realistic. They made it look like he wanted to die but as soon as he jumped he tried to pull himself up but couldn't. Pissing all over himself, he's now dead.


Epidode 2

Dream sequence because Tony is in a coma. I didn't really like this one but it was VERY emotional. When he's not dreaming they show Carmela and the family going thru hard times; sticking by him at the hospital, talking to him to keep his brain stimulated. Very emotional Carmela scene.
