One rewatch of this season will change you’re mind on Tony’s decision. Chris was exactly what Ton said he was.

I love breaking bad as much as anyone but what you mean Heisenberg is more likeable who did Tony kill for no real reason and remember Heisenberg watched a chicken od he might have been in the right about that then had a drink with her dad her dying cause two planes to crash then poisoned a kid to get help killing Gus even though he was not in danger anymore got hank and his partner killed gave Jesse up to pretty much to be a slave or get killed which he wanted which got the kid he poisoned mom killed left his family in a worse situation than before kidnapped his kid also had no problem with Todd killing a kid also killed Lydia who also was a single parent killed all the people that went to jail although he wasn't in the wrong about that he killed Mike for telling him the truth he messed up everything and he only came back to make things right because his ego and the thing yall be on Tony case the most about his cheating Walter tried to cheat too with his boss at the school but he didn't have Tony game so he couldn't close the deal

There's a lot of things to say about this episode and the overall Season 6 narrative that will have to wait until the ending of the show, which is probably why so many are saying that this is better on a rewatch. Definitely a 10 for me because I've never seen anything explore grief in this way; just so dark and disturbing. The Vegas stuff will feel a lot less like filler when the show is over and we can talk it through lol. 3 more to go, can't wait. Will have to remember to bring up that Twilight Zone episode that Carlo references in Chasing It, after the finale, too.

For some reason I knew this was going to be particularly hard on Braiik. Formal was a bit philosophical, but Bralik seemed traumatized. This is the first time I have rewatched this episode since it aired and I was traumatized when I saw it the first time. I had to finally let go of the Tony that I had come to at least enjoy watching and liked as a person away from the mob stuff. It was like Tony finally embraced and leaned into being truly evil. He sort of showed himself in the last episode with that evil smile he had when Chris looked at him when he was laughing along with everyone else.

Somebody please protect Daniel Baldwin from the Cleaver Curse!

Bralik got the point of the show. Bro killed his nephew-son, was annoyed by other people grieving, projected onto Carmela, and even fucked Chrissy's girl while doing drugs, which he always looked down on him for. I guess Phil is your new favorite character lol

Tony really shit on Chris to the end for drug use then immediately after killing him goes to the desert and trips peyote. Cut with the asbestos at the end I really feel like Tonys I get it is understanding absurdity of life and acknowledges he is really Devil on earth and void of almost all love. Watching this for first time while taking an existentialism course was crazy

paul carlsen

I’d watch it!

Daniel & Mattieu FRR

bruh I can't believe formal caught Sils eyebrow on first run through

paul carlsen

It definitely felt different than WW and I felt the difference 😭

Daniel & Mattieu FRR

You know Cleaver could actually get a cult following with a mystique behind it given the sudden deaths of Chris and J.T. Dolan.

Eric Posin

When Walter let that girl die, you could see in his eyes how he was fighting his better nature and in the end you could feel his shame at what he allowed to happen to that girl because she was such a liability. Go back to the scene and see how cold and calculating Tony is as he decides to kill Chris. As he is suffocating him, there is nothing in his eyes. It's chilling. Poor Bralik was traumatized after that scene. He couldn't focus for a while.

Corina Perez

There's three Kennedy connections in this episode. Tony says Chris's widow looks like Jackie Kennedy at the funeral, Kennedy and Heidi driving.... and a weird one, Senator Ted Kennedy famously ran someone off the road while driving in Chappadaquick and left the scene, the person died...Not sure if this is a weird coincidence, but with the writers of The Sopranos being S-Tier, I think they knew what they were doing.....

John Wlaysewski

Shhhhh

Lucas

I GET ITTTTT

Joel bravo

I will concur that a lot of the later Sopranos episodes are great when removed from expectations. I think you guys might be going through what we all went through, which is, looking at how many epsiodes are left, rather than what is right in front of us. The weird swerve from Chris dying to Peyote trips in Vegas, is off putting if you’re always thinking, “we don’t have time for this, there’s only three episodes left!” …. I also didn’t know what to think at the end of this epsiode, the first time I saw it…

John Wlaysewski

Don't say that 🤣

Daniel & Mattieu FRR

I love the scene when Phil calls Tony and him and Butchie are on the other side giggling like school girls

Damn man

John Collins

This episode in particular only became a favorite on rewatch.

Matthew Kaufman

Yeah, the universe just totally affirms to Tony in this episode that ge doesn’t need to change or be better.

Matthew Kaufman

Season 6 is actually superior on rewatch in every way

Matthew Kaufman

The entire Sopranos crew are on a spectrum of sociopathology…. We admire and appreciate their human failings and how they get their shit done, but in the end, they would kill any of us if we impacted their bottom line…. Chris is one of many many people who got to experience this up close. It’s super tragic… if he saw himself as more than just a Soprano soldier, Chrissy could have left with Adriana…. RIP

John Wlaysewski

If you listen in the background when that man is dumping Asbestos in the lake, you can hear the quacking of ducks… Tony’s business decisions destroying his family….

John Wlaysewski

they’re gonna punch their tv out when they finish this show 😭😭😭

This episode is like peak evil Tony. When you look at the first few episodes of the season half of the final season, the show makes you wonder if Tony’s going to kill Bobby, Hesh and Paulie in that order and then Tony finally kills Chris.

Eric Posin

In my honest opinion this is the worst version of Tony that I’ve ever seen. Complete lack of remorse and empathy for others grieving, a sense of relief at having his number two gone from his life. At the end of the day Chrissy became an inconvenience for Tony. As he is an opportunist, Tony took the opportunity to kill Christopher when it became convenient. Him laughing at the thought of him gone is some of the sickest shit I’ve ever seen. Tony is a monster

Lucas

One of my fav ever eps as weird as that may be! Love all the Vegas stuff. I think what Tony "got" on the peyote trip is that it's okay to be purely selfish and act in your best interests...Like he should have killed Chris a long time ago and only would have been rewarded sooner, not punished. Maybe he even realized there is no Hell to worry about going to, or that the worrying about his actions is what's causing him all the problems, not the actions themselves. It's like the opposite of what a non-psychopath criminal would come to terms with on psychedelics. This episode kind of seals him as a villain for the audience, so it makes sense that he is coming to terms with it at the same time as we are.

ArtVandalHey!

Sorry this will be a bit long, but yeah this is another one of those deeper ones, less plot driven, more symbolism. I think the important thing to notice in season 6B is Tony's changed idea of who his father was. Throughout the series, he always admired his father and blamed his mother for the majority of his issues and problems. Through Melfi and therapy, she begins to make him see that his father was worse than he remembers. Chopping off someone's finger in front of him, leaving his mom for his mistress when she had a miscarriage, and finally being the one to have Tony commit his first murder when he was 22, and bringing him into this life of sin. His father always told him not to gamble, and for the majority of the series, Tony doesn't gamble. But we've seen this season, him go deep into gambling ignoring his father's advice, almost purposely self sabotaging in spite of his father. Tony has now killed his "fortunate son" or prodigal son in Christopher. The kid who he brought into this mafia life. The one person who he was always supposed to depend on. The song playing right before they get into a crash has some poignant lyrics. "When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse, Out of the corner of my eye I turned to look but it was gone, I cannot put my finger on it now, The child is grown The dream is gone I have become comfortably numb" Tony has come to terms that his dream of Chris has failed and ends his life, and I think this ties into how he's feeling about his father this season and killing his father/son relationship with Chris literally. I personally think at the end, when he's tripping in the desert, what he "gets" is that the universe is indifferent. He can murder, and steal, and be an evil person but the universe or God does not care. Or maybe he gets that he is not a good person and will never be and has come to terms with it.
