1. Nam etsi ambulavero in medio umbrae mortis,

2. non timebo mala, quoniam tu mecum es.

3. Virga tua et baculus tuus ipsa me consolata sunt.

4. She was furious with me, because if I had my law degree,

5. I could have represented us.

6. The jury ruled against me.

7. I told my lawyer I considered suicide.

8. I drove home from Nyack, and guess what?

9. She had left me.

10. I recall almost a sigh of relief...

11. Somehow it made a lasting impression on her life.

12. My first child came easy enough.

13. But with Patricia, they had to open me up under anesthesia.

14. I've often thought that perhaps the reason...

15. I told them when I got here,

16. "Okay, I explored the criminal lifestyle."

17. But I was an altar boy, for Christ's sake.

18. Moltisanti is a religious name. And still I'm fucked.

19. I met death on Route 23, not too far from here.

20. But that was much later.

21. Back in 1967, the man wearing the hat was my father.

22. In those days, he didn't have a son.

23. Five dollars says I spot him first.

24. I don't got five dollars.

25. Then you better win, gagootz. Huh?

26. Uncle Dick, think fast.

27. Oh, you want to fight, huh?

28. The little fat kid is my uncle, Tony. Soprano.

29. You got nothing.

30. Well, we call him my uncle, by marriage.

31. He choked me to death.

32. There! Pay up.

33. We have a winner, ladies and gents.

34. Huh?

35. My grandfather and his brother were with

36. the DiMeo crime family in Newark.

37. My grandfather was an associate,

38. - but he stacked more scharol... - Pop!

39. than any of the made guys.

40. Hey, there he is!

41. Including a Cadillac dealership.

42. Cara mia, fammi presentare mio figlio, Richard Moltisanti.

43. Everybody calls me Dickie.

44. Welcome to America.

45. Benvenuta.

46. America!

47. Most guys 65 go to Europe on vacation, they come back with the gout.

48. You come back with the winner, Miss Provolone, 1967.

49. Oh. Antonio Soprano.

50. U picceri.

51. After he murdered me,

52. Tony gave my wife and baby his pocket change.

53. But that was much later.

54. E squisita.

55. I'm embarrassed. You're all such great cooks over there.

56. Can you translate for me?

57. Forget it. She understands enough.

58. Giuseppina, what does your family do over there?

59. Mio padre—

60. The fascists killed her old man.

61. Her mother never recovered.

62. Fuckin' Mussolini.

63. I don't get it. When I was a kid, you and Vito Genovese

64. always praised Mussolini.

65. Let's not talk politics at the table.

66. But I'll tell you, Dick,

67. it's paradise over there.

68. On the one hand, you can't believe the beauty.

69. On the other hand, they don't even have toilets.

70. I told Giuseppina that "you're gonna live the life of a proud American lady.

71. And I'm gonna have my second set of children with you."

72. And they'll be deluged with a life

73. that they could never even imagine over there.

74. Like you were, Dick, as a kid.

75. These'll be your brothers and sisters.

76. So... Giuseppina is your stepmother, Dickie.

77. Yeah.

78. It wasn't me who ripped you off!

79. Oh, yeah? Oh, yeah?

80. - Come on!

81. - Shit! - Harold.

82. All right, already.

83. This punk ass snapper.

84. Japped one of our runners, took 600 bucks.

85. I want a full bag tomorrow.

86. Who the fuck are you?

87. The guy who one time put out somebody's eye for talkin' to him like that.

88. - You winded there, Jesse Owens?

89. I gotta quit smoking.

90. I agree.

91. Can't I get you to switch to Newports?

92. Hey, Harold. My son here say

93. he gonna be Hank Aaron when he grown up.

94. I'm gonna hit 318 like him.

95. Hmm. 318, your lucky number, boy, play it.

96. Yeah. Numbers is the only chance

97. Black folks got to get out of this sinkhole city.

98. How does that work, anyway?

99. Well, you pick out three numbers,

100. like for you, 3-1-8.

101. You bet a quarter,

102. and if your numbers come on at the racetrack,

103. then you win $125 for a quarter.

104. - For a quarter? - Mmm.

105. Bet a dollar, you get $500.

106. - You shitting me, Harold? - Uh!

107. What if my numbers don't come out?

108. Well, if your numbers don't hit, you don't get nothing.

109. Harold collects everybody's bets and gives it to the Man.

110. How you think the Italians drive those long, fancy cars

111. and wear those diamond Swiss watches on their wrists?

112. Thank you. Thank you, everybody, welcome.

113. - Uh...

114. Well, mostly, I... I just want to say how pr...

116. I want to say how proud I am of my big girl, Janice...

117. who is today...

118. a woman.

119. - Cheers!

120. You know, Janice, she, uh...

121. She went to her catechism.

122. She practiced her Latin.

123. She even stopped watching those two stunods, Sonny and Cher,

124. long enough to think about God, huh?

125. Too much fucking salt on this.

126. At least for a minute or two, but... boy, did she cost me.

127. You know, I made a bet that, uh,

128. Janice would not do her religious duties.

129. But if Janice did, you know, got confirmed...

130. I'd shave off my mustache.

131. Ooh...

532. - Side door's open.

533. Johnny's just gonna want to hit him,

534. and he can't because of the glass partition

535. and he's just gonna get frustrated.

536. - Hey, Jun'. - I got some Lady Schick blow dryers.

537. Livia, take one for yourself. One for Janice.

538. I got bigger problems than blow dryers.

539. Anthony got kicked out of school.

540. Let me go talk to him.

541. I promised Johnny I'd take care of Tony while he was in jail.

542. The way you talk, you just confuse him.

543. He only listens to Dickie.

544. Ma vaffanculo.

545. Jun', leave me a blower for Joanne.

546. What are you reading?

547. Oh, can't you read a regular comic?

548. You know, Superman, Jughead.

549. It's about some Jewish girl and a knight.

550. And Robin Hood's in it.

551. I didn't know they had Jews back in the Middle Ages.

552. Well... the Bible.

553. Anyway, your mother asked me to talk to you, so...

554. What, about getting suspended from school?

555. Hey, put that down, huh?

556. Sorry.

557. You know I don't like to lean on you about stuff.

558. But you can't start a gambling operation at school.

559. I know that...

560. now.

561. Hey, don't bullshit me. You always knew it.

562. And it's not just the gambling. It's everything.

563. The cherry bombs at the YMCA, letting the air out of Mrs. Russo's tires...

564. - I apologized to her! - You talk big about

565. wanting to be on the football team in high school

566. and you're smoking already? Oh!

567. You gotta have a better attitude.

568. With your father gone, your mother's got a lot on her plate.

569. You gotta be good.

570. I don't want to go through this again.

571. I try to be good.

572. I don't think so. Try harder.

573. Pinky swear?

574. Jesus.

575. Hey, you don't talk to me like that.

576. See, you're not listening.

577. Fine. Pinky swear.

578. All right.

579. One time I went to Playland...

580. I saw the cops shoot a friend of my dad's right in the back.

581. Yeah, Chickie Sasso. He still can't move his bowels like normal.

582. I don't want that to happen to me.

583. And it won't, gagootz. Not while I'm around.

584. We're gonna see that it don't.

585. Junior. Junior. Where's Candy tonight?

586. Migraine.

587. Again with the migraine.

588. Keep a close eye on that one.

589. She keeps disappearing, she's probably fucking some Tom, Dick and Harry.

590. - Found a new gravy train.

591. A guy checks into a hotel, calls up the front desk,

592. "I got a leak in the sink." Clerk says, "Go ahead.

593. - Customer's always right."

594. Yeah, that was funnier when Henny Youngman told it.

595. No, no, don't... Don't. Just leave it the way it is.

596. I wonder what the origin of the sobriquet "gravy train" is.

597. They named it after the dog food.

598. I don't know about you, Junior.

599. Guy tells you your girlfriend's banging somebody else,

600. you're worried about the origin of "gravy train"?

601. - Oh!

602. Oh, smile, my brother.

603. White flight.

604. Oh! It's Hopalong Che Si Dice.

605. Whatever the fuck that means.

607. What can I get you?

608. Bartender's special tonight, for the ladies: Pink Squirrel.

609. Courvoisier and Coke. Water back.

610. That what they drink on the plantation?

611. Oh, you didn't hear? We're off the plantation.

612. We got wops digging ditches since they come over.

613. Hey, come on.

614. It's Dickie's business. Let it go, Paulie.

615. What the fuck's the matter with you?

616. You got a murder warrant over your head.

617. I'm heading down south. North Carolina.

618. So where's your mule? Get going.

619. Thing is, I need to borrow some money.

620. - How much? - A grand.

621. All right, I'll tell you what.

622. I'm gonna give you five C's. Yeah?

623. It's my gift to you. You don't gotta give it back.

624. No, I want to pay you back.

625. Ah, it's better this way. You don't gotta be afraid to say hello to me,

626. I don't gotta chase you down. Won't come between us.

627. So I guess this is goodbye.

628. Yeah, you said your goodbye, so go.

629. You don't stare at those people. They don't like it.

630. Brought you that record you wanted.

631. Plus, a couple others I picked out.

632. What's this?

633. Al Hirt. Trumpet. He's on Carson all the time.

634. It's not jazz. Take it back.

635. These, too.

636. So...

637. you did your good deed.

638. Well, don't put it like that.

639. I plan to do a lot more.

640. Your poor father, huh?

641. He goes down to board up that Atta Boy business that he had...

642. and he dies in that horrible way.

643. It's just weird, though.

644. What, weird?

645. My brother's hands were soft. Like a baby's pishadeel.

646. Always with the manicures, your father.

647. Yeah, what's your point?

648. He never touched a hammer or a board in his life.

649. What's your problem?

650. Well, for one thing...

651. my wife, she can't get pregnant.

652. You know, it takes a toll. I want a son so bad.

653. What would you do?

654. It's the wanting.

655. Huh?

656. The Buddhist will tell you: "All life is pain."

657. Pain comes from always wanting things.

658. A son is not a thing.

659. It's the wanting.

660. You know, Tone, we could still run that numbers game down at the fucking CYO.

661. I got fucking suspended, I can't get in fucking trouble again.

662. No. Fucking school will never know.

663. I want to make it to the NFL someday.

664. For that, I gotta go to college.

665. So I gotta watch my fucking ass.

666. My old man told me I gotta run his fucking restaurant when I grow up.

667. What does your old man say?

668. He says I gotta fucking rob your old man's restaurant.

669. Do you know who I'd wanna be? Your Uncle Dickie.

670. How he fucking dresses.

671. He said he'd give me $500 if I graduate from fucking high school.

672. Fuck, man.

673. The '60s ended.

674. Neil Young gave that speech from the moon.

675. Then came the RICO statutes around when I was born.

676. I wish I had come before that.

677. Hey, Uncle Dick.

678. They're gonna be here soon. We gotta get inside and hide.

679. Hey, Anthony, you go see Dirty Harry like I told you?

680. "You gotta ask yourself, do you feel lucky?"

681. "Well, do you, punk?"

682. Madonna.

683. It's that old fig tree, in 'Lino's backyard.

684. - Nothing changes. - Yeah.

685. Nothing changes?

686. That's... that's Poupette's house.

687. - What are you mad at me for? - Ah, you...

688. Mother...

689. How did you let this happen?

690. Oh, what do you want from me, Johnny?

691. I had plenty on my shoulders taking care of things while you were in the joint.

692. Yeah.

701. - Jesus Christ. - There he is.

702. All I want to do is bang my goomar, go to sleep.

703. - Hey. - Good to see you.

704. - Hey, Paulie, how's your ma, huh? - Much better.

705. Johnny.

706. Hey, baby, how are you? Come here.

707. Oh... Did the surprise work?

708. You know, I'll tell you what surprised me.

709. You got shiners on the block, huh?

710. Oh, look at you. Not a pound.

711. He's just a regular Charlton Heston.

712. You come, you visit...

713. But you don't tell me they moved in. On my street.

714. He's a doctor.

715. - A doctor. - He's not operating on me.

716. You gotta berate me in front of everybody?

717. Ah, Jesus.

718. You know, just like always.

719. Ah, va' a Napoli.

720. Come on.

721. Hi, Dad.

731. I missed you too, kid.

732. You know, I made your favorite pizza gain.

733. Even though it's not Easter.

734. I got everybody together. I dressed up.

735. And you spit on it all, on me!

736. I didn't invite the coloreds onto the block!

737. Here we go.

738. Livia, give him a break. He just did four years.

739. I did four years!

740. I missed your baked ziti, baby.

742. How about you, chooch? You gonna be a linebacker, huh?

743. Coach says I'm gonna be starting.

744. - He don't have the makings of a varsity athlete.

745. It was up to me, you wouldn't be playing at all,

746. but you went ahead and you forged my signature.

747. Nah, relax.

748. He's not gonna get hurt.

749. Here he is. Fresh from his nap.

750. - Joanne, Joanne... - Yeah?

770. - What happened?

771. It's okay.

772. Look at that.

773. I don't know what it is, it's like I scare him or something.

815. This ain't Greensboro, North Cackalacky.

816. The Italians got soldiers over there.

817. Okay? That's what they call 'em.

818. What... what's the matter, you ain't no soldier?

819. Never thought about myself that way, no.

820. Well, think about it.

821. Right. "He's got a gun," you think, "and I haven't."

822. You figure it's the gun.

823. Well, listen, soldier.

824. Thousands of guys got guns, but there's only one Johnny Rocco!

825. How do you account for it?

826. Well, he knows what he wants. Don't you, Rocco?

827. - Sure. - What's that?

828. Tell him, Rocco.

829. Well, I want, uh...

830. He wants more. Don't you, Rocco?

835. - The burgers? - Yeah.

836. - You, do you know what you want?

837. Yes, and I had hopes once, but...

838. Hopes for what?

839. A world in which there's no place for Johnny Rocco.

840. Okay, soldier, you can make your hopes come true.

841. But you gotta die for it.

842. See where I'm aiming? Right at your belly.

855. I heard your ass was back in Jersey.

856. You still got that warrant over your head?

857. Lead detective died. Nobody gives a shit.

858. Leon Overall had been a white boy,

859. it'd be a whole different story.

870. Due per cento increase every year.

871. Six and a half years still.

874. It's Dionne Warwick.

875. Comes from right over here in South Orange.

876. I love Dionne Warwick.

877. Me, too.

878. I wonder where she gets her hair done.

879. Probably some fancy place in Beverly Hills.

880. I bet she pays $100. Oof! Marone!

881. I should move to Beverly's Hill.

882. Where'd you learn to do hair?

883. I learned from mia mamma.

884. - Mmm. - My...

885. She had a chair in the front room.

886. Women would come, and I sweep up.

887. And I watch.

888. Oh, how wonderful.

889. But that's not the life I want for me.

890. - Mmm. - Over there,

891. you get old so fast.

892. Ten children and a big, black dress.

893. You know, over there,

894. I wanted to be a priest.

895. - You mean "nun." - No, no, priest.

896. Nuns have to do what they told.

897. The priest is the boss. Capo.

898. So you never tried the convent, huh?

899. Not for me.

900. I could not stand the silence. No male.

901. No, yeah.

902. You wind up doing... push-ups in the asparagus garden.

903. You know?

904. What's so funny?

905. Nuns.

906. Yeah. They weren't so funny when they were hitting me with a ruler.

907. First thing you gotta do is look at the lease. Is that, uh, the lease?

908. We already look at the lease.

909. It's good.

910. Oh, yeah? I'm gonna look it over.

911. Two percent increase a year, six years still remaining.

912. There's just one thing I want to make better.

913. Oh, yeah?

914. - New sinks. - Hmm.

915. Those are disgust.

916. We can do that, sure.

917. This is some fantastic salsicce.

918. Guarda basso.

919. I am worried about the fucking boiler, though.

920. Looked like shit.

921. Inspector says it's fine.

922. Okay, okay. But the thing about remodeling is,

923. you start with the sinks and then you go,

924. "We might as well do this other thing while we're at it."

925. It spins out of control.

926. Ah.

927. We don't want to be pouring good money after bad.

928. Can you stop eating for one minute?

929. Finisci di mangiare poi stammi a sentire.

930. No capisce, but I'm all fuckin' ears.

931. So we're not going to buy it for me, the beauty parlor?

932. All I'm saying, I don't want us walking into a stupid situation.

933. You think I'm stupid?

934. Oh, let me ask you, what are you, on the rag?

935. Every time I say something you don't like, you ask me if I'm...

936. il marchese.

937. First you tell me to find a store I can turn into beauty parlor.

938. I do that. You say it looks good.

939. Then you say, "No, let's buy a place already a beauty parlor."

940. I find this place. Now the boiler!

941. Sweetheart, why are we arguing about fucking plumbing?

942. I always want to do right by you!

943. You know, I love you!

944. Io ti voglio piu bene di quanto tu ne vuoi a me, lo vuoi capire o no?

945. You know I don't speak Italian!

946. Maybe you should learn!

947. Oh, where you going?

948. To put on a robe. I'm cold.

949. Better hurry up. Pot roast night.

950. Right. You know Wednesdays I gotta go home.

951. And what are you getting so pissy about?

952. Why did I make the sausage?

953. To make me happy?

954. Because I love it?

955. But it's not as good as Joanne's fucking pot roast.

956. Oh, you're digging at Joanne again.

957. I hate her.

958. Of course you do. It's only natural.

959. Go home and eat. I don't want the beauty salon.

960. No, vaffanculo.

961. Motherfucker!

962. You think you know everything!

963. Jackie, you drive stick?

964. - Fuck no. - I do!

965. You drive.

966. Grab his arm, hold him down.

967. Fucking punks!

968. We're gonna get in so much fucking trouble!

969. My father's gonna use the belt on me!

970. You little shit!

971. If anybody tells anybody about this, next time we use the belt.

972. Oh! Come here! Free ice cream!

973. Here, here.

974. Get more of it.

975. Here, here. Here you go. Here you go.

976. How 'bout this one? There you go, sweetheart.

977. That manicott at Vesuvio's is so rich.

978. How'd you hear about them throwing Mister Softee a beating?

979. His cousin Tony Blundetto told Janice.

980. I was down in the islands when he pulled that shit.

981. If I was home, I'd have given him a schiaffo he'd never forget.

982. What's he want to be when he gets older?

983. Thinks he's gonna be a football player.

984. He's good. I don't think he's pro material.

985. What do you think, Dick?

986. Probably not. But who knows, he puts on a few pounds,

987. four years of college ball...

988. He should go to work for my cousin Frank

989. in the patio furniture business.

990. Here we go with that tune.

991. So maybe he's not a ball player, but Li,

992. you don't wanna step on the kid's dream.

993. You always take his side.

994. Look, you give him the best advice you can,

995. you lead by example, he'll make the right decision.

996. This kid's got what it takes. That's what I'm saying.

997. We all do things like that when we're kids, right?

998. Beat up the Mister Softee man.

999. If my Christopher grew up to be like Tony, I'd be goddamn proud of him.

1000. I told him the other day, I said,

1001. "You play football for a career, it doesn't last long.

1002. You wind up an old crippled man by the time you're 32."

1003. Bobby Piocosta, he's a junior, on Anthony's team.

1004. He fractured his shoulder last week.

1005. The mother was hysterical.

1006. They had to take him to a specialist at St. Barnabas.

1007. You think the school's gonna pay for that?

1008. That's some Christmas present, huh?

1009. Having your kid laid up. He can't help outside, hang the decorations.

1010. He can't help shovel the walk...

1011. Don't give me that look.

1012. I though it will be different.

1013. What?

1014. Make love with a Black man.

1015. Is it?

1016. No.

1017. It's all about Italian men, huh?

1018. There's stories about Dean Martin and Rossano Brazzi,

1019. how they're great lovers.

1020. If you feed them.

1021. Oh!

1022. You gotta give Dickie his meatballs and his noodles.

1023. I'm Dickie's comare.

1024. Dickie and his friends, they like their women to stay at home.

1025. Don't go out.

1026. Wait on them, hand and feet.

1027. I'd stack my bread if you were my girl.

1028. You want to have your own beauty parlor?

1029. Knock yourself out. I'd even back it.

1030. You want your woman to work?

1031. No, but I'd be real proud of her.

1032. Owning a business.

1033. My mama used to take in the washing.

1034. I always respected her for that.

1035. Dickie says colored men don't have no head for making money.

1036. Well, that's what we're gonna find out.

1037. You will not be able to stay home brother!

1038. Four, two, seven.

1039. Box it for me?

1040. You know, another nurse hit the number last night.

1041. Big time.

1042. Damn. Who was it?

1043. What do I know, it was up in the First Ward.

1044. It was, uh... It was St. Michaels.

1045. That jinxes it for me.

1046. The revolution will not be brought to you

1047. by the Schaefer Award Theatre.

1048. And will not star Natalie Woods and Steve McQueen or Bullwinkle and Julia.

1049. See, the law of averages say you got the same chance of hitting

1050. as any two random people.

1051. Yeah, but two people at the same time

1052. don't have the same chance of winning.

1053. That's the law of averages.

1054. That's a fallacy, Ms. Johnson. It's all random.

1055. You don't understand fate.

1056. What do you got for me, professor?

1057. See you tomorrow.

1058. Tomorrow there'll be a brother here for the pickup.

1059. No more whitey's cut.

1060. What the fuck, man?

1061. The revolution will be live.

1062. And this Black guy, Harold McBrayer, popped one of my guys.

1063. He used to be a runner of mine.

1064. We don't know who ordered it. We can't find McBrayer.

1065. So what do you want from me?

1066. I was thinking maybe you could ask in here.

1067. Nation of Islam, talk to Alonzo Turner,

1068. see if any of them knows anything.

1069. I don't talk to people in here.

1070. I mostly read all day.

1071. How you doing on your merit badges?

1072. I'm coaching a beep baseball team.

1073. A who?

1074. It's baseball. For blind kids.

1075. Get the fuck outta here.

1076. No, for real.

1077. Run, run, run, come on!

1078. Shortstop, left!

1079. - Attaboy!

1080. Way to go, Coach. Our boys looked sterling out there today.

1081. Two, four, six, eight, who do we appreciate?

1082. Coach Moltisanti! Coach Moltisanti!

1083. You're a saint!

1084. - Oh, shit! - Gun!

1085. Where's Harold?

1086. In your mother's fat guinea ass.

1087. You take that back!

1088. Who put him up to it, Angelo Salerno?

1089. Anthony Bello?

1090. Chef Boyardee.

1091. - Come.

1092. Put him on the table!

1093. Pussy, grab his legs.

1094. What are you gonna do, rotate my tires?

1095. Dick, I just got this jacket.

1096. You...

1097. Open!

1098. What about it?

1099. Fuck you!

1100. Stop for a minute!

1101. God damn it!

1102. Oh! I don't fucking...

1103. - So?

1104. Harold! Harold McBrayer!

1105. I asked you whose idea it was!

1106. I told you! It was Harold! Nobody put him up to it!

1107. Oh.

1108. The fucker acted on his own?

1109. All right, Dickie.

1110. - Go get it.

1111. That fall, Johnny moved to the suburbs, the Black thing.

1112. And he was seriously earning.

1113. This move made Tony half a pussy, in my estimation.

1114. What made you think it was a good idea

1115. to steal the answers to the geometry test?

1116. I didn't study, and, uh, I needed to pass,

1117. so I could stay on the football team.

1118. You know,

1119. you got Charlie Nodzak in trouble, too,

1120. when you paid him for the answers.

1121. Well, he was the only kid I knew on the mimeo squad.

1122. Well, Charlie was on the honor roll.

1123. And you're missing the point.

1124. You know stealing the tests was wrong.

1125. Yeah, I guess so.

1126. But if you're gonna kick me out of school,

1127. I mean, you should just do it, instead of us talking about it.

1128. You talk a lot at home?

1129. I don't know.

1130. Well, your dad, for example, what does he talk to you about?

1131. The lawn.

1132. What about the lawn?

1133. I don't know,

1134. he goes to Yankee Stadium and he comes home and says our lawn looks crummy.

1135. What about your mother? Is she someone who likes to talk a lot?

1136. I guess so.

1137. Well...

1138. what makes her happy?

1139. Happy?

1140. My mother?

1141. Let's go, Anthony.

1142. I wonder if I could talk to you for a moment alone, Mrs. Soprano?

1143. Well, it's gonna have to be fast,

1144. 'cause I'm parked at the hydrant.

1145. On the basis of the Stanford-Binet,

1146. he's high IQ, but you know that.

1147. You can't prove it by me. He's got a D-plus average.

1148. Well, that's because he doesn't apply himself, but he is smart.

1149. There's a big difference between a smart person and a smart aleck.

1150. I also administered the Briggs-Myer personality inventory just now,

1151. and the results tell us, he's a leader.

1152. "Enthusiastic, insightful, playful."

1153. Ah, you're talking through your hat.

1154. He did tell me one thing I'd like to share with you.

1155. But it's gotta be fast, because I'm still at the hydrant.

1156. Do you remember a children's book called

1157. - Sutter's Mill? - No.

1158. About the gold rush in California?

1159. Yeah, maybe I do. Yeah?

1160. He told me about a night your husband was... away.

1161. And you got in the bed with Anthony and hugged him.

1162. He said that?

1163. No, his exact words were you "snuggled up close."

1164. Yeah. Yeah, I remember that now.

1165. You read to him from that book.

1166. Long into the night, apparently.

1167. He remembered details.

1168. He didn't know the word "ingot,"

1169. and you explained it to him.

1170. He said it was one of his best memories of his life.

1171. Is that a hotel Bible?

1172. I forget where I got it.

1173. Baby, Cousin Cyril is dead.

1174. You're supposed to do an hour.

1175. It's an hour on, ten minutes off.

1176. All of a sudden youse two are only on 40 minutes and then disappear.

1177. We don't know where the fuck you are.

1178. We're off somewhere thinking, "What more can we do for Gentleman Dick and Johnny?"

1179. Don't get cute.

1180. Where's Giuseppina tonight?

1181. The movies with her girlfriend.

1182. I would eat her shit.

1183. Oh!

1184. You don't talk about her that way.

1185. In fact, you don't talk about her at all.

1186. Hey, take it easy!

1187. - I love her. I love her!

1188. - Get down!

1189. - Hey, asshole! - Dickie!

1190. Motherfucker!

1191. Come on, you fucker. Come here.

1192. - You like that, huh?

1193. - How 'bout that? - Come on, you motherfuckers.

1194. Fuck!

1195. No, no, no! Frankie, Frankie, Frankie! Frankie!

1196. No!

1197. You mother...

1198. Shit!

1199. Anthony, come eat!

1200. There's my big boy.

1201. Oh, cool, man, a hamburger.

1202. I thought you'd like a change from a mortadella sandwich.

1203. I made it special for you.

1204. You look nice.

1205. Aw.

1206. Me and Aunt Mary are going to the city to see No, No, Nanette.

1207. What's that?

1208. Broadway. A play.

1209. Shoes are killing my bunions.

1210. You should go see Dr. Cuomo.

1211. We don't go to him anymore.

1212. We don't?

1213. He said some very rude things to me.

1214. Like what?

1215. He wants me to take pills for my sleeping.

1216. And... and other things.

1217. I'm not some lunatic.

1218. No, but maybe some medicine would be good.

1219. Ah, you and your father. Why don't you get in line to blame me?

1220. I wasn't blaming you, I was just saying...

1221. This new thing... called Elavil.

1222. For people who are sick in the head.

1223. What?

1224. It's a song.

1225. It's by the Stones.

1226. Exactly what I'm talking about.

1227. They're drug addicts. I don't take drugs.

1228. The song's not saying that you take drugs, it's...

1229. You smoking marijuana, I suppose?

1230. Mom, I'm on the team.

1231. Your sister is. I'm almost sure of it.

1232. - This hamburger's great, Mom. It's really good. - Agh!

1233. Go on.

1234. I went to all that trouble

1235. just so we could have a nice conversation for once, and for what?

1236. How am I supposed to enjoy a Broadway show

1237. with my children and their pot?

1238. Ma, I don't smoke pot!

1239. Well, your sister comes in here smelling like a gypsy.

1240. Well, I'm not my sister. I'm always being accused.

1241. Oh! Poor you!

1242. Sempre, sì, sempre problemi al cuore.

1243. Don't look so blue, kid.

1244. You and me'll cut out, go play catch.

1245. It's raining.

1246. sa benedica, gets put in the ground,

1247. all they want to do is eat my food.

1248. It's not an Irish wake, right, no food.

1249. You get carried to your car.

1250. Watch your step there, boss.

1251. - How you doing? - How you been?

1252. Eckley, how's the boy?

1253. Wonder what they talk about in there.

1254. Uncle Dick, can I talk to you for a minute?

1255. What's up, Joe Cocker?

1256. All right, I'm gonna wait in the car.

1257. You help her? Help her.

1258. Well, spit it out.

1259. You ever heard of this?

1260. Yeah, so, what about it?

1261. Well, my mom's been in a bad mood lately.

1262. Lately?

1263. The doctor said that this medicine could help her, but she won't take it.

1264. So what do you want from me?

1265. So I was thinking maybe you could talk to her.

1266. What about your old man?

1267. Nah, she's not speaking to him. He did something.

1268. I see the way she looks at you.

1269. Always sits next to you at dinners.

1270. She bought you that fur hat for Christmas.

1271. I never wear it.

1272. I mean... she looks up to you.

1273. And maybe you could get her some.

1274. You need a prescription.

1275. I can't get it in my own name.

1276. I know you can get anything.

1277. Don't be a wise-ass.

1278. I'm not, I'm just saying it could make her happy.

1279. Even Janice says.

1280. Janice.

1281. There's somebody we all want to take advice from.

1282. Anthony!

1283. The pros play in the rain.

1284. - Ah, what are you doing, Jun'? - Uncle Jun'!

1285. Oh, Madonna mia!

1286. Stay down. Don't move him!

1287. Uncle Jun'!

1288. I just said don't move him!

1289. Your sister's cunt!

1290. Corrado!

1291. I'm calling an ambulance. God damn it.

1292. Here you go. Here you go.

1293. - Take my hand. - Cocksucker!

1294. These are Frank Sinatra, Jr. tickets for your uncle.

1295. I gotta fly down to the dog track.

1296. They boast a string of hits that seems to have no end,

1297. out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,

1298. the mighty Delfonics.

1299. Hey, kid. How's your rash?

1300. Uncle Dickie around?

1301. Hey.

1302. Mezzanine?

1303. What the fuck.

1304. What?

1305. That medicine.

1306. Oh...

1307. You nervous Nellie, I got stuff to do.

1308. Hey, hey, come here.

1309. I want to show you something.

1310. Holy shit. JBLs.

1311. A pair of them are yours to take home.

1312. Yeah, well, they're hot.

1313. Eh, fell off a truck.

1314. Far out, man.

1315. Oh!

1316. Ten-inch woofers.

1317. I want to go to college.

1318. I can't get caught with shit like this.

1319. Okay, my friend Hesh...

1320. says only goys and children pay retail.

1321. This isn't wholesale, it's totally on the arm.

1322. Look...

1323. You want to be a civilian, I appreciate that. I'm all for it.

1324. But pay attention to me for once, okay?

1325. You take the speakers, right?

1326. At the same time, you promise yourself these speakers are it.

1327. Now, you say to yourself,

1328. "This is the last time I'm ever gonna steal something."

1329. And you stick to it.

1330. It's that simple.

1331. Maybe... Maybe I should get on top.

1332. Agh!

1333. Fucking Dickie Moltisanti!

1334. It's more than a month now!

1335. For God's sake, Corrado.

1336. He didn't push you down the stairs, you slipped.

1337. He got a good laugh out of it, though.

1338. Any excuse not to fuck.

1339. They don't vote the motherfucker out of the White House,

1340. somebody gonna assassinate his lying ass.

1341. Azalea, you got it!

1342. Say, hey!

1343. There's my farm boy from the Garden State.

1344. - Where's my tomatoes?

1345. Brought you collard greens.

1346. Ah, now you talkin'.

1347. Sit down.

1348. Have a hot chocolate and Baileys.

1349. So, we square?

1350. Ooh, Chanel.

1351. Small bills.

1352. You're doing good.

1353. Soon I'll be in the stratosphere with you.

1354. Call me Buzz Aldrin.

1355. Well, Buzz, gonna hype you again.

1356. State lottery's coming.

1357. Your woman's not gonna be wearing French footwear very long.

1358. Now, with smack,

1359. you got white kids coming in from Long Island, New Jersey,

1360. Westchester to the East Village,

1361. paying 30 bucks to stick their arm in a hole.

1362. Invisible person on the other side finds a vein,

1363. shoots 'em up...

1364. Should tell you something about the future.

1365. You make a good point. We'll talk.

1366. Thanks.

1367. This week I gotta...

1368. gotta do something about this guinea motherfucker or he'll do me.

1369. Ah, DiMeo?

1370. Nah, Dickie Moltisanti.

1371. Controls the numbers, whole rest of Newark.

1372. You maybe need an assist on the play?

1373. Why would you want to do that for me?

1374. I got my own issues with the Five Families.

1375. I appreciate it, Frank, but...

1376. Terms of the community.

1377. I'd better do this myself.

1378. Darryl.

1379. Merry Christmas, Buzz.

1380. I'm so hungry.

1381. I got news.

1382. That beauty parlor? I took it over.

1383. For me?

1384. We'll be partners.

1385. It'll be in my name, but you'll run it.

1386. Exactly how you want it. I'll be hands off.

1387. Oh!

1388. Oh, Dickie!

1389. Hey, what did the bartender say when the horse came in?

1390. "Why the long face?"

1391. You told me that a million times.

1392. Yeah, so? Why the long face?

1393. I'm all, uh...

1394. intronata.

1395. You're mixed up? Well, what are you mixed up about?

1396. So many things.

1397. Ten minutes ago, you were laughing like an idiot. What did I do?

1398. The beauty parlor.

1399. The beaut—

1400. I thought that's what you wanted.

1401. More than anything.

1402. But now we partners in business.

1403. It's like a marriage.

1404. I'm alone so much.

1405. I get lonely.

1406. Maybe you didn't love me anymore.

1407. Hey, if I don't love you anymore,

1408. you won't mistake it for a maybe.

1409. Someone else came along.

1410. I said yes.

1411. Who?

1412. Don't make me say.

1413. What, you said, "Yes, come fuck me?"

1414. Is that what you're trying to say? What else, yes?

1415. It didn't mean anything, Dickie.

1416. - I love you! - How many times?

1417. I don't know.

1418. You don't know?

1419. So many times you can't remember? Who was he?

1420. - I doesn't matter, it's over! - Who was he?

1421. - I can't! - Tell me! Fucking tell me.

1422. Promise you won't hurt him!

1423. I don't promise anything,

1424. but you don't tell me, it's gonna be worse.

1425. Harold.

1426. You fucked that murdering nigger?

1427. But I don't love him, Dickie!

1428. I love you! Please! Don't!

1429. No, please! No! No!

1430. Ah!

1431. One thing I still miss at Christmas...

1432. The Seven Fishes. My wife used to make it.

1433. And tripe, too.

1434. She could make those two things, out of this world.

1435. You celebrate Christmas with your goomar, or you stick around home?

1436. What makes you ask?

1437. I just remember, with my girlfriend, it was always a big argument.

1438. She died.

1439. So young.

1440. What happened?

1441. Pneumonia.

1442. Pneumonia?

1443. She had weak lungs, from growing up on the other side.

1444. Fucked up doctors...

1445. So much tragedy in your life.

1446. Your father, your mistress...

1447. I don't even have a picture of her.

1448. You know, I... I try so hard.

1449. What kind of God, huh?

1450. I go to church when Joanne wants.

1451. I try to set an example for my nephew,

1452. I come see you...

1453. I do all kinds of good things.

1454. You know the Christmas song, "My Favorite Things"?

1455. Yeah.

1456. Maybe some of the things you choose to do...

1457. aren't God's favorite.

1458. What are you trying to say?

1459. What do I know? I'm a murderer.

1460. As far as your nephew goes...

1461. may I make a brief suggestion for a nice Christmas present you could give him?

1462. I'm listening.

1463. Stay out of his life.

1464. It's damaged.

1465. And you're out of line with your prices.

1466. Who is this?

1467. Hey, Uncle Dick, it's Tony. How's it going?

1468. There's a party tonight, and I was wondering

1469. if we could get a couple cases of Rolling Rock?

1470. Uncle Dick?

1471. Uncle Dick?

1472. Hello?

1473. There's something wrong with his phone.

1474. Your ass. Same as last time.

1475. It doesn't have to be Rolling Rock.

1476. Does he know that?

1477. It's not about the fucking name brand.

1478. Carmela, you got a dime?

1479. Hello?

1480. Hey, Aunt Jo. It's Tony.

1481. Can I speak to Uncle Dick?

1482. I haven't seen him today.

1483. Yeah?

1484. Well, how's Christopher?

1485. You know, the colic?

1486. For my money, you kids shouldn't be drinking at your age.

1487. Give me the goddamn phone.

1488. Fuck. Hey, Joe Jerk-off.

1489. What'd you say?

1490. I said, hey, Joe Jerk...

1491. Your sister's twat!

1492. What?

1493. Stop it!

1494. Stop it!

1495. What do you got for us?

1496. It's what I told you, furniture. Ethan Allen.

1497. Dinette sets and, uh, TV trays.

1498. TV trays?

1499. I didn't argue.

1500. - Mmm. - Fucking truck's not gonna unload itself.

1501. I'll let him know.

1502. Hey, Sil, I need to talk to my Uncle Dickie.

1503. He's not here.

1504. His car's here.

1505. Battery's dead.

1506. You know where he is?

1507. Who am I, Rand McNally?

1508. Okay, well...

1509. Merry Christmas, Sil.

1510. You too, kid.

1511. Carmine spotted Harold, Rockhaven Motel, down on 46th.

1512. Well, we'll do it tomorrow.

1513. I'll pick you up at00 at the Pork Store.

1514. It's the kid again. I told him you're not here.

1515. Turn the lights out.

1516. But the guys, they're still unloading.

1517. You know...

1518. The fuck are you doing?

1519. I don't want these!

1520. Oh! That was a gift!

1521. You take 'em!

1522. I don't want any part of this!

1523. None of it! I don't want any part of this!

1524. Huh? What "this"?

1525. What "this"?

1526. Night, Dick.

1527. Dick...

1528. The kid. I don't know what happened with you two.

1529. But he worships you.

1530. He's got so much potential.

1531. Anthony, with that loony tune of a mother.
