Season 4 finale - “Whitecaps” - easily my favorite episode of the series. It’s the episode where Tony and Carmela “separate” thru numerous argument scenes.
Gandolfini and Falco putting on an acting clinic. Brilliant to watch.

Was this the episode where they were arguing in the guest house where Tony was staying that was still on the property, but not in the house (obviously)? When he punched a hole in the wall behind Carm? When Carmela said to Tony, "I have things to say too!".

She is a great actor as well.
Yup.
You’ve had quit the time on my watch. The preschool teacher now the one legged one.
That’s when she tells him about Furio. The original line for that scene was supposed to be I have been masturbating to Furio.
I’ve heard and this probably from Talking Sopranos that HBO was scared to broadcast the College episode as that is the first time a lead character in a show murdered someone on TV.
Every time I have some sympathy for christopher, I remember how big of a piece of crappy is and a monster he is.
Sorry about the title it’s the only one I could find. This entire scene Chrissy and his comments. Poor little guys. Tone when he was talking about greasing the union who knew that’s what he meant.
Sil's delivery in that scene was amazing. The way he read off that piece of paper was like he was reading something out in front of class, like a book report!
I still feel robbed that we never had a resolution to the Furio story. Apparently they wanted to bring him back, but he was a cost cutting measure. They brought in Frank Vincent who came in at a high salary, and decided to make him the focus of season six. I wonder what the plans for Furio were. I think it would have been great to have seen him on the run in Italy.
He eventually murdered Dolan. His demise was quite the shock...
How about poor Davey Scatino (Robert Patrick). Tony set him up from day one to ruin him. He seemed like a decent guy, and was friends with Tony going back to highschool.
Then Tony sets him up to ruin in that high end poker game. Only for Davey to be bled dry by Tony and Richie. Just like in Goodfellas they force him into bankruptcy... then straight into the nuthouse.
It was such a great performance by Patrick as well. Another character you empathize with on one hand, but despise on the other for destroying his family's future.
Gotta disagree completely here. Don't remember the exact numbers but Davey asked to get in the game and Tony gave him $10K credit. This isn't really a big deal considering Davey owed a successful business (Tony thought he owned it). Tony is in the loan shark business afterall, that wasn't exactly a big loan. When Tony caught some sleep Davey racked up another $40K by lying and saying that Tony had approved it. So at that point he was $50K in debt and it was his fault entirely, then they found out he owed Ritchie money too, then when Tony went to collect the first vig payment Davey had no money at all to give him.
Tony isn't exactly a good guy, no loan shark is, but Davey screwed himself and his family all by himself. If Tony hadn't gave him that 10K he would have borrowed it from someone else and Ritchie probably would have killed him if Tony hadn't stopped him.
