The only two true victims in tonight's episode? Bobby's kids. Now they're stuck with Janice. May God have mercy on their souls.

[CRFTony]

Oh crap! Poor Bobby. They took him out while buying a train set. And damn, they've got Sil in a coma.

Damn Tony for bringing in the "cousins". Get your crews hands dirty, don't form out all of the big hits. Tony's paranoia does in his family once and for all.

Next Sunday can't come soon enough.

[radiogrl1]

guy on the left in the Bobby hit - Springsteen?

[Garbs]

Jesus, it's really happening. That was the fastest 50 minutes of my life.

What did Janice say to Meadow and Carmella?

[haleyj]

I think I just began breathing again.

[JayRome]

Okay, so I'm somewhat shocked.

Sil! Please, don't die Silvio! One of my favorite characters!

Bobby: Couldn't care either way. I kind of enjoyed seeing Janice cry - always hated that stupid bitch. The way it happened was a bit shocking; in the train store? That was wonderful. David Chase knows how to off a guy every time!

What was that comment that Phil made in the beginning? "There's no scraps in my scrapbook." WOW! Sounded kind of like a Carmine statement, but wonderfully put. To me, he is the scrap that needs to be dumped with the asbestos.

The one thing I really disliked about this ep was the Melfi situation. I don't like how she ended it and I dont think it's the last we see of her. The way Elliot told everyone about her seeing T kind of makes me think one of them will say something to the wrong person and it just may get back to the wrong people. Am I alone in this?

Tony falling asleep at the end just kind of bugged me out. Not sure that he fell asleep, but I know I couldn't sleep in that situation. Maybe it just shows how much of a sociopath he really is. I did love when he pulled AJ out of bed and the X-Box just came tumbling. Oh, I love watching that little shit cry. Brings teers of joy to my eyes.

Anyway, as for the preview - I didn't pick much up. Can't wait til next week to see what DC has in store, but I hate to think it's the end...

[howcanthatbe]

So anticlimactic-- gold.

[msrobins]

I can’t believe that. My son pointed out that Junior through his gun under the bed Tony is in, after the shooting.

[thatguy01]

Perfect.

One to go.

[BlueScreen]

It will take a long time to digest all of that. Incredible episode. Wow.

Blue Comet. Bobby and his damn trains.

[LoveSupreme]

I was on the edge of my seat the ENTIRE FUCKING EPISODE! Awesome!

SILVIO!!! Not my Silvio! He's not dead... and I think he's been talking to the FEDS. Just a hunch.

[pairafids]

Those who like plot advancement AND those who like whackings should be thrilled with that episode! Unless of course you like Bobby or Sil. The fastest 51 minutes of television I've ever watched.

[Storywriter]

Oh my God. Quite easily the best hour of TV I have ever watched in my life. I have not started to breathe again yet.

And NOOO!! Not Sil!!

More later...

ETA: Oh and AJ? Shut the fuck up and pack you idiot. I was soooo thrilled to see Tony finally smack his whiny ass around a little.

Fucking Eliot! Is he trying to get Melfi killed??? I can't believe she dropped Tony, but it was kind of necessary after that, wasn't it...

[Hank55]

Those spoilers really did a job on all of us didn't they? Perfect misdirection being artfully done.

[Terps54424]

More (hopefully) eloquent thoughts to follow, as there's way too much to process so quickly, but my strongest feeling is really my hatred for Melfi. What a bitch. She gets her feelings hurt by a colleague and uses that to rain a shitstorm of bitchiness on Tony.

[AngelaHunter44]

Those idiots, thinking Phil spoke Ukranian and had his daughter staying with his mistress.

I need oxygen and Prozac.

[jasunshine]

And Carmela still manages to be shocked that there's violence in the world of the mafia family. How now?

[Uncool]

I know in my gut that's it time for the show to end but I can't help but be overwhelmingly sad about it.

Don't really like the violent ending we're witnessing so far. So harsh.

[teafan62]

Nooooooooooooo! My beloved Silvio!!!!!!!

What did Tony say to Janice out by the pool? (Something about Main St.?)

[KatrinaD]

Ohmygod! They killed Bobby! You bastards!

Wow... that was intense, to say the least. I enjoyed Melfi's passive-aggressive dumping of Tony. "I don't think I can help you. Therapeutically," indeed. And poor Sil; I'd have rather they shot Paulie, because I just loves me some Silvio.

Nice to see that we got to say goodbye to Artie and Charmaine.

Next week is far too far away.

[BlueScreen]

Lovesupreme, if Sil wasn't talking to the Feds (or debating flipping to the NY crew, which obviously did not happen), Chase has been throwing out a ton of red herrings, both tonight and all season.

[casey65]

I can’t believe that. My son pointed out that Junior through his gun under the bed Tony is in, after the shooting.

That didn't look like Junior's house at all - they showed his house from the outside before, it's much bigger and the interior is different.

[Cosmocrush]

Oh Bobby, the train ran off the tracks.

It's really going to end! Oh Shit. I'm still reeling.

Finally somebody had enough of that whiny piece of garbage! I got up and cheered when Tony dragged that punk across the floor and told him to pack a bag. DUDE, your whole damn family is under attack and your uncle just got killed and you're worried about your depression levels? Please grow a pair. Please don't anyone ever suggest AJ could go into mob life. I would be surprised if this kid could survive anything.

All in all a very tense episode, all this stuff about rats, wrong. I was glad to see Paulie back in his role as the Soprano enforcer, protecting Tony. I thought at first they were at Jun's old house, does anybody recognize where they went?

[Equipoise]

Crystal fell off her shoes. We had to call an ambulance.

Or maybe it was "she had to go to the hospital."

In any case, that double-helping of hee is the only thing that got me through the ensuing bloodbath.

[chrisconjr]

Oh my god what an insane episode.

The line that struck me most was toward the beginning, when Sil was telling Tony about killing Burt. Sil said "We'll go all out. Maybe then Phil will know that we're serious."

It struck me as so pointless, as like a little kid standing up to a bully even though knowing that he's going to be brutally beaten, as if his staunchness and courage meant anything in light of the enemy's overwhelming power. The scene of Bobby's hit, with the trains going off the tracks, was very nicely done. (as nice as a murder can be)

Farewell Bobby, one of the show's only truly likeable characters.

[howcanthatbe]

the fastest 50 minutes of my life.

speeding, and yet, also very calm. excellent pacing. did anyone notice how quiet it seemed? fantastic.

[marty118]

Thought the model train crashing was a little cliched, other than that, a great episode.

And Phil had already decided to take over NJ and kill Tony before the Italian cousins hit the Ukrainian, so they were independent events.
