OMG!!!

amazing, amazing episode last night. perfect way to come back from a long hiatus, and begin the stretch of final episodes!

one of my favorite things in television is when old scenes are edited and then replayed to create new storylines! it\'s such an awesome and innovative idea, and really gives the writers endless possibilites! GREAT!

and the lake... how friggin incredible is THE LAKE?!? WOW.

i do have to say that i\'m a little upset about the lack of screen time given to the karaoke scenes.. i mean, monopoly is a great game, but they really overdid it.. i mean, did tony sing? did bobby sing?? and if so, what did they sing??? unfortunately, these are questions i don\'t think i\'ll ever know the answers to. for shame.

we learned a LOT about janice and tony\'s childhood and how disfunctional their family was.. who knew?? janice didn\'t get nearly enough screen time either.

i just hope they slow things down a little bit. i mean, there\'s EIGHT episodes left! if they keep going at the frantic pace that last night\'s episode went at, i don\'t see how they\'re going to be able to fill up all 8 episodes.

guess we\'ll see next week!

VIVA SOPRANOS!!!1

overall, a strong episode.

i like tony realizing that he\'s a mere physical shell of what he used to be, which could have ramifications of how the season progresses. and i especially like how the presence of janice\'s anger, which of course ties in to olivia\'s anger and the home movies and all, played a major role in tony and bobby fighting. i mean, that never would have happened otherwise. earlier in the episode they were having a great old time, but the booze combined with janice and the bad memories of tony\'s childhood helped cause the fight, which i loved, and ultimately led to what i think is a big moment in the show with bobby killing someone, which he sort of had to do to get back in tony\'s good graces and just continues the along the theme of his character changing, again largely due to janice.

perhaps i\'m diving too deep, but i\'m very focused on characters developing and going on emotional and psychological journeys and i felt like i went on that journey last night. maybe not a five-star episode, but far better than most of the episodes of the first half of season six, and leaps and bounds better than that half\'s opener and closer.

I\'n thinking each episode will focus on a main charachter sealing their own fate.

 How many of you thought Hector was going to drown at AJ and Dominica\'s """pool party"""?

HOw quickly things change Dave Peck.  I loved last night\'s episode as well, I thought the tension building throughout the certain scenes was awesome, I def thought for a sec that Tony was gonna take out Bobbi for a second.  Very much looking forward to this final season.

I love the subtle things.  Carmela singing "Out of Time"  foreshadowing anyone?

I think when Tony said "you beat me fair and square" he was talking to Janice, not Bacala.

When Tony woke up, the clock showed 4:04.  In past episodes the time has had some sigificance, but I can\'t recall what?  Little help anyone?

4:04 is considered the point in the day when the astral and physical planes cross over.  People meditate mostly between 4:00 and 5:30 for maximum contact with spirtis, and the higher self. Tony awoke because he was probably in a lucid state of thought and reflection caused by his dream state, forcing him to resolve the internal conflict.

But like I said, I predict each episode will result in each charachter sealing their fate. Bobby never "popped his cherry", and exclaimed the difficulty of doing so, with "the DNA nowadays".  And of coarse the emotional intensity of killing a man causes him to lose his grounding, which causes him to leave behind a piece of his shirt and his gun.  Coincidence..... There are none. Bobby\'s dunzo... But notice Tony had complete control over Bacala\'s fate.  I\'m curious to see if this theme continues witch each episode.  Ahh the wonderments of a sociopath!!

i\'m back on board. :thumbsup:

fantastic episode, i thought. the ending was chilling, and the whole Johnny Sack thing (while a bit rushed) was really depressing. Sidney Pollack was great.

is phil "all-in" or "all-out"? his speech could be interpreted either way i think..

What I took from Phil\'s speech at the end, is that he is ready to go to war with Tony and start fucking some shit up.....I think he feels that his family Leatardo (ballet costume - ha!) has been shat on since they came over from the motherland, and he is sick of taking shit....

last night definitely made up for the previous week\'s episode..

i liked the phil scene at johnny sack\'s memorial when he talks about leonardo>leotardo and how people were stupid and jealous of italians when they came to this country. i think he that will be getting himself out over the course of this season.

the end sequence with tony and carmella at the christening was something else. there is definitely some serious tension that i think will pan out to be the very ultimate competition between tony and christopher. by the end of this season, one of them is going to be dead for sure.

i still don\'t know where the whole anthony and skanky girlfriend thing is going. i kind of want to see somethign happen or just see the situation go away.

i would also like to see some closure on the whole adriana escapade this season if that is even a possibility.

I agree.

I didn\'t watch last night but after reading many of the other posts, I am going to watch it on demand tonight. Hopefully, it is better than last weeks.
