@@simonium8123 It's like people don't watch the series, they forget how Tony was incredibly upset over what happened to Tracee. How he was depressed when he talked to Melfi and was very defensive when Johnny Sack said Tracee was just a whore. They also forget the different contexts, when Tony hit Ralphie at the Bing all of his inner circle was there and separated the two. And in this fight there's NO ONE stopping Anthony from killing Ralphie with his bare hands.
@@Fartucus No, you watch the series again. And pay attention to details like Tony being incredibly upset over Tracee's death, and Tony staring at her picture at the end of this same episode.
As if he was referring to the girl he beat to death at the Bing and the horse and when tony calls the horse a beautiful innocent creature also felt as if he was talking about both the girl and the horse even if she was a whore lmao
That line got him killed, he never knew when to shut up. He had a point about Tony’s hypocrisy about money/killing people and the fact that they each got $100k.
I just realized that Ralphie's biggest problem is he cannot lie. Compared with Tony, who killed Chris cold blood but no one even doubted. Ralphie cracks under questioning😂
Yup, basically this. The rest was just as evil as him, but the only difference was that they knew how to stay quiet while Ralph just could not keep his mouth shut.
I mean, idk if Ralphie really “cracked” when he was probably telling the truth (I don’t care what David Chase says, it makes 10000x more sense that Paulie started the fire rather than Ralph), but I agree with the concept you’re getting at. Ralph wasn’t a good liar
thats why Tony says where Ralps Dies : you F* killed HER (not it , for the Horse, but Her for Tracy, the prostitute with same age of Medow) it reflects the fact Ralph Killed the prostitute affects Tony so deepley and unconcious level.
That insult definitely sealed the deal on Tony deciding to kill Ralphie, but I feel like Tony was already getting enraged by Ralphie pointing out just how hypocritical Tony was. Doubt Tony was gonna let it slide.
@@snnnaaaaaakeeeee4470What sealed it was Tony was disgusted by the food aspect of the situation. Ralph was frying eggs like the horse fried in the fire. Ralph did a murder of a "beautiful, innocent creature" and had an appetite after. This scene has a lot of culinary disgust to it (--in addition to extreme animal activism).
Ralph was the most despicable character in this series and that is saying a lot considering the competition. He was sorely missed when he was inevitably killed off, though. Joe Pantoliano put in a stellar performance.
Thats whats so fkn scary about Tony tbh. Ralph knew it to, if I don't get the upper hand with a weapon from range and get this unit knocked down he is gonna pin me down a squeeze me to death!
Could never watch scene more than once. I could watch people get their eye ripped out, but seeing anybody get beat to death is too much. Her character being pregnant didn't help.
Tony’s soft spot for animals…the ducks, the horse, that dog Christopher accidentally killed…this aspect of his nature is so endearing. It almost makes me forget how he’s otherwise a cold hearted and ruthless crime boss.
@@Stormertheboy I can think of at least one time where that happened to me. But I was drunk as hell so idk if it was cuz of the fight lol. My heart was exploding and just wouldn't stop, had like an insane adrenaline rush going
It’s mainly because the raid sprayed in his face, ts is toxic and he complains about it the entire episode; the smell the taste the burning. And ralphie didnt really land huge stomach hits to him. But the reality is the spray adds extra to that and theres no telling irl ud probs inhale some of it too and wanna puke worse than that. Im just surprised he didnt puke immediatley after being spray in the face with it.
I mean, I would not say that it was entirely about her. It would be inconsistent with Tony's character if he was not upset about the horse dying as well. He did care for her though.
Tony was devastated about the horse. If tracee is involved, it’s not a lot. He visited that horse, smoked a cigar with it while he watched it recover, he loved it truly.
That's why Tony was a shitty boss. Ralph was crazy but did more for that crime family than Tony could ever hope to do. The bottom line is to make money for the family & Ralph was the top guy.
@@nicholasmargagliano1833 I agree with you. Tony was filmed/framed very lovingly when he sat on the little stool in the stall and spent the night calming the horse, joined by the goat. He was delighted by those animals.
Avenging pie-o-my, saving aj from drowning and not hurting or murdering Artie after pointing a fully loaded gun at his skull…those are the only 3 times he did something that wasn’t just for him getting self-gain or being a stubborn pos sick monster imo ngl 😁🤷🏻♂️
Raid to the eyes has *got* to really hurt. How fitting, Tony killed Ralphie the exact same way Ralphie killed Tracee. Bashed in brains (but with the added strangle).
@@humungus3 He even said it best to Christopher when he said "The guy was a piece of shit, anyway". I think you're right, though. He must have enjoyed it to some degree.
But is also fucked because of Tony’s size. A big horrible bastard will always beat a small one that’s why Ralphie had to the weapons and was still decimated. We had a big fucker at my school and his thing was to pick you up and thrown you into the ground WWF style. I never saw anyone get up after the second one, not even other tough kids.
I knew Ralph would die but I didn't expect it would be in this way. I was honestly brought to some tears at Tony avenging both the horse and Tracee. My family's Irish, and horses are the one thing we might possibly kill someone over because of how important they were to us as not an just a work animal, but a family member. We buried our horses the same way a man would be buried
Ralph is utterly despicable of course (as they all are) but man I remember rooting for him in this scene. The character was larger than life, Joe's performance perfect. I didn't want him out of the series despite how evil he was...

The bug spray in the eyes was the funniest and smartest thing Ralph did. Realistically Tony would have been all his after that. It would have been interesting to know how Ralph would have handled it if he had killed Tony.
Tony needs to feel superior to Ralph: He sees Ralph making these positive changes in his life, a good cook, and pointing out that whatever happened to the horse is nothing compared to what they do on a regular basis. Tony cannot stand that someone as reprehensible as Ralph would call him a hypocrite and his anger boils over.
What changes lol. He showed no remorse for killing Tracee whatsoever. Just because he's cooking in his house that doesn't mean he's turning his life around. He still would have stayed evil if he was still alive.
@dr.daredvil612 He ordered the death of Adrianna she was innocent, and he beat zellman with the belt he ordered the death of Pasty brother Tony was no angel either
And the storyline of Ralph's injured kid's recovery goes on without him, and his family never know what happened to him. I've always wondered about stuff like that, like Tony B's kids after he just vanished from their perspective. Whatever happened there.
he got into a fight with his ex wife and her husband at the hospital (he was having a bubble bath while the the kids were shooting each other with arrows). It seemed implied he wouldn't be missed
“What are you a vegetarian?! You eat beef and sausage by the f*ckin car load!” That line was unintentionally funny but it is. I like how Ralph’s last words were insulting Tony’s weight 💀💀💀🤣😅
Chase did state that Ralph actually killed the horse... but it would be much more realistic if he didn't and Ralph gets killed because of that.... to show how sociopathic these mobsters are, when Tony got into his head that Ralph did it, there was no way of surviving this
If you listen to the DVD commentary, the two writers of that episode disagreed on whether he did or not and Joey Pants played it as if he DIDN'T kill the horse. I think it's more interesting if he didn't. Tony doesn't kill him for killing the whore, like he should have but DOES kill him for the horse dying, which he shouldn't have.
@@johnassimakopoulos8954 Legend says YOU a heaux. Hope you don't have daughters. Meadow is around Tracy's age so no wonder Tony feels for her. You wouldn't want someone to hurt your child the way Ralphie did Tracy. Even as a stripper/exotic dancer - SHE. WAS. SOMEONE'S. DAUGHTER.
@@thisgirlisoverit Move past them, lol. I suspect multigenerational thoughts on art. What's for some are not for others. Laugh at what is funny and move past those that aren't. That's me anyway:-)
Beautiful work. Not clear cut who will win, using whatever might be around to the advantage, and looks in the eyes like they need to kill the other one faster. The use of the spray and the pan did good as well, along with the knife struggle.
Of all the characters I hated Ralphie the most and he got what he had coming to him. But everything he said about Tony was true. Tony had no guilt or compassion for all the humans he hurt but was able to feel love for animals.
People who don't see that Tony also had Tracee in mind when he said "She was a beautiful, innocent creature!" are 100% blind. Tony was verbally and visibly upset when he saw Tracee dead, he didn't mention the Bing once at the time; only after Sil mentioned it. He talked about her with Melfi and clearly didn't treat her as a "whore". He talked to her more soft spokenly, he would reprimand her like she was a daughter. And despite her being a "houah", she acted like a little girl in some scenes. Her showing Tony her braces like "Dad look, I got new braces!", her fantasizing about having a family, a little girl in her arms with a husband caring for them, her bringing Tony a fruitcake, a FRUITCAKE, as thanks.
The thing is, Tony didn't actually know if Ralphie did it, but he wanted to see if Ralphie reacts harshly, because it would show he did it. Ralphie told him everything he needed to know, then Tony asked for some eggs.
I feel like during this fight Tony and Ralph were no longer mafia associates. But animals fighting to the death. If Ralph would have came out on top, who knows what would have happened.
No matter how many times I see this, I don't believe that Ralph killed the horse (I know what David Chase said, blah blah blah). I think the experience with his son really shook him. I think when Tony showed up to piss and moan about the horse, he was placating but possibly out of a place of genuine sympathy. His son in the hospital did become his priority, which is why he didn't indulge Tony's sob story about the sad dead horse. He didn't give a shit about the horse. He was just trying to be nice, which is honestly a perfect way for Ralph of all people to go out. But hey, what am I? An arson investigator?
No, not a sociopathic person but rather a narcissistic psychopath person because sociopaths are able to have feelings and empathy for certain people or things like Tony psychopaths are more like Richie and Ralph
Haha yeah and he thought Tony would accept his bullshit if he made money. But we see Tony values loyalty and trust more than money throughout the series.
It's tragic that Ralph died the same way as his beloved future wife tracee slipped and fell while arguing. If only he had realized the dangers of a slippery floor.
It seems like no one understood Sopranos, rare exceptions. Tony cared about Tracee for reminding her of Meadow, for the fact that she was young . Even after having sexual contact with her, he realizes that he did something to a girl his daughter's age and keeps avoiding her. The scene in question is related to both (the horse and the girl), because according to Chase himself, there is this psychological issue in sopranos. Those who didn't understand this just saw in the figure of Tony Soprano a psychopathic mobster with extreme fury and didn't understand absolutely anything about the series. All her personal intrigues with her father (and lack thereof), the fact that her father was in the mafia and was violent towards her mother, which created Stockholm syndrome in her after the death of Johnny Soprano, the death of her uncle (which is in-depth in Many Saints of Newark), even his own problems with his mother, with his family. Everything related to Tony has an air of psychoanalysis behind it. Anyone who has only seen an angry mobster, I suggest they go back and re-watch the series paying attention to the smallest details.
I love how Ralph fighted like he lived and worked. Not honest, just pure fucking dirty. He was a real maniac, who caused so much shit just cause he had no empathy of some sort.
Rage and adrenaline and the momentum of a fight can do a lot of things. Plus Tony isn't superman but he does have a pretty extraordinary survival extinct. If he let Ralph get more than an arms length away after the Raid he probably would have lost, and it was now or never then to get him to the ground, for which at that point he mainly had to grab and use his weight
Everyone has his “comfort video”, one that you keep watching over and over again, on days you feel low etc. This is it for me. I can’t stop watching this video. Shit makes no sense.

2: Triggering him by bringing up meat (something Melfi discovered was causing his panic attacks)

His rage and that comment "she was a beautiful, innocent creature...what'd she ever do to you"...that rage is for Pie-O-My AND Tracee.

100 percent right, he can't stand other people getting better, Janice, Christopher Ralph son is in the hospital, and Tony only cares about the horse
What changes lol. He showed no remorse for killing Tracee whatsoever. Just because he's cooking in his house that doesn't mean he's turning his life around. He still would have stayed evil if he was still alive.
No, he can't he was the biggest hypocrite on the show
@@jamesmorant1406 as far as I remember Tony didn't kill any innocent person in the show
@dr.daredvil612 He ordered the death of Adrianna she was innocent, and he beat zellman with the belt he ordered the death of Pasty brother Tony was no angel either
Tony’s soft spot for animals is his only redeeming quality
He loves and cares about/for artie, silvo, meadow and maybe aj too
He cares for children too
He's quite generous with sandwiches too though.
And the storyline of Ralph's injured kid's recovery goes on without him, and his family never know what happened to him.
I've always wondered about stuff like that, like Tony B's kids after he just vanished from their perspective. Whatever happened there.
he got into a fight with his ex wife and her husband at the hospital (he was having a bubble bath while the the kids were shooting each other with arrows). It seemed implied he wouldn't be missed
“What are you a vegetarian?! You eat beef and sausage by the f*ckin car load!” That line was unintentionally funny but it is. I like how Ralph’s last words were insulting Tony’s weight 💀💀💀🤣😅
Chase did state that Ralph actually killed the horse... but it would be much more realistic if he didn't and Ralph gets killed because of that.... to show how sociopathic these mobsters are, when Tony got into his head that Ralph did it, there was no way of surviving this
If you listen to the DVD commentary, the two writers of that episode disagreed on whether he did or not and Joey Pants played it as if he DIDN'T kill the horse. I think it's more interesting if he didn't. Tony doesn't kill him for killing the whore, like he should have but DOES kill him for the horse dying, which he shouldn't have.
Holy fuck you midwits need to learn a new term besides "sociopath".
Long Live Tracee 🕊️
Ew, no. She was a hooer who tortured her own baby
Legend say she was *hooore*
@@johnassimakopoulos8954 Legend says YOU a heaux. Hope you don't have daughters. Meadow is around Tracy's age so no wonder Tony feels for her. You wouldn't want someone to hurt your child the way Ralphie did Tracy. Even as a stripper/exotic dancer - SHE. WAS. SOMEONE'S. DAUGHTER.
why is there always unfunny jokes in this comment section
@@thisgirlisoverit Move past them, lol. I suspect multigenerational thoughts on art. What's for some are not for others. Laugh at what is funny and move past those that aren't. That's me anyway:-)
Damn he really did have the makings of a varsity athlete!
john wick would be very proud of tony in this moment.
Tony didn't even give a shit about Ralph's kid and jumped straight to Pie-o-My.
Shows how very little respect he had towards him. He visited Silvio at the hospital to show his last respect.
Beautiful work. Not clear cut who will win, using whatever might be around to the advantage, and looks in the eyes like they need to kill the other one faster.
The use of the spray and the pan did good as well, along with the knife struggle.
Ralphie be dead, had it comin'.
Of all the characters I hated Ralphie the most and he got what he had coming to him. But everything he said about Tony was true. Tony had no guilt or compassion for all the humans he hurt but was able to feel love for animals.
People who don't see that Tony also had Tracee in mind when he said "She was a beautiful, innocent creature!" are 100% blind.
Tony was verbally and visibly upset when he saw Tracee dead, he didn't mention the Bing once at the time; only after Sil mentioned it. He talked about her with Melfi and clearly didn't treat her as a "whore". He talked to her more soft spokenly, he would reprimand her like she was a daughter. And despite her being a "houah", she acted like a little girl in some scenes. Her showing Tony her braces like "Dad look, I got new braces!", her fantasizing about having a family, a little girl in her arms with a husband caring for them, her bringing Tony a fruitcake, a FRUITCAKE, as thanks.
It's hypocrite anyway. You can't feel bad for one stripper who was nice to you while you pimp the other ones
Later that day
Chris: “what happened?”
Tony: “he slipped on the counter spraying for ants…he was wearing socks”
Man RAID in the eyes and a swift kick in the nuts can't be fun!
Fantastic acting by Joey Pants and the deceased James Gandolfini.
It was nice to see Ralph wasn’t completely helpless against Tony
Joe’s (Ralphie’s) delivery of “NO, I DID *_NOT!”_* is absolutely incredible and a major highlight of an already amazing, pivotal scene.
most satisfying death in the series
That would be tony's actually
@@arthurmead5341but we don’t see it. Kinda wanted to
He didn't did tho
Richies dead is.
How about Phil?
"Ralphie, he slipped. we were arguing I dont know, he fell."
“No I did not ! But so what ! “ Joey pants knocks it outta the park here
This was the moment when Tony looked presidential
“Jesus Christ, you did it. You cooked that fuckin horse alive!” takes me out every time 💀😂
The thing is, Tony didn't actually know if Ralphie did it, but he wanted to see if Ralphie reacts harshly, because it would show he did it. Ralphie told him everything he needed to know, then Tony asked for some eggs.
"Have to learn how to talk all over again, use his hands..."
"Oh yeah.... that's good!"
I feel like during this fight Tony and Ralph were no longer mafia associates. But animals fighting to the death. If Ralph would have came out on top, who knows what would have happened.
No matter how many times I see this, I don't believe that Ralph killed the horse (I know what David Chase said, blah blah blah). I think the experience with his son really shook him. I think when Tony showed up to piss and moan about the horse, he was placating but possibly out of a place of genuine sympathy. His son in the hospital did become his priority, which is why he didn't indulge Tony's sob story about the sad dead horse. He didn't give a shit about the horse. He was just trying to be nice, which is honestly a perfect way for Ralph of all people to go out.
But hey, what am I? An arson investigator?
Agreed.
But you can't say blah blah blah over the proof that you're wrong. Is this flat earther logic? "Don't look up"
@@cmofficial794 The Artist's words are not the proof. The art itself is the proof.
well done Tony- the two last punches after Ralphie was already dead was a nice touch
Ralphie was a great character - truly a sociopath - but true to his nature
No, not a sociopathic person but rather a narcissistic psychopath person because sociopaths are able to have feelings and empathy for certain people or things like Tony psychopaths are more like Richie and Ralph
I love that tony never has a panic attack after killing a human.
That’s because he has learned to accept the fact that he is a killer a long time ago
For what its worth, atleast ralph always stood on business. One of my favourite characters in the show
Haha yeah and he thought Tony would accept his bullshit if he made money. But we see Tony values loyalty and trust more than money throughout the series.
@@WestwoodPizzaCo. true even when vito was swallowing johnny cakes
I found him like this...
It's tragic that Ralph died the same way as his beloved future wife tracee slipped and fell while arguing. If only he had realized the dangers of a slippery floor.
Ralphie lost his life in battle like a gladiator.
Of all people Ralphie gave Tony a good fight 💀
Bobby did
Ralph and Christopher shared the very same fatal character flaw: neither one never knew when to shut up.
The blast from the can of Raid to the eyeball always got me.
It seems like no one understood Sopranos, rare exceptions. Tony cared about Tracee for reminding her of Meadow, for the fact that she was young . Even after having sexual contact with her, he realizes that he did something to a girl his daughter's age and keeps avoiding her. The scene in question is related to both (the horse and the girl), because according to Chase himself, there is this psychological issue in sopranos. Those who didn't understand this just saw in the figure of Tony Soprano a psychopathic mobster with extreme fury and didn't understand absolutely anything about the series. All her personal intrigues with her father (and lack thereof), the fact that her father was in the mafia and was violent towards her mother, which created Stockholm syndrome in her after the death of Johnny Soprano, the death of her uncle (which is in-depth in Many Saints of Newark), even his own problems with his mother, with his family. Everything related to Tony has an air of psychoanalysis behind it. Anyone who has only seen an angry mobster, I suggest they go back and re-watch the series paying attention to the smallest details.
Ralph’s tiny little hands trying to reach Tony as he’s getting the shit choked out of him 😂😂😂
small hands, that was his problem?
I love how Ralph fighted like he lived and worked. Not honest, just pure fucking dirty. He was a real maniac, who caused so much shit just cause he had no empathy of some sort.
I think Tony was equally upset about the horse, but then Tracee came flooding back the way Ralph used an impersonal "it".
They made Tony a superman in this show. He'd been done for getting roach spray to the eyes.
Rage and adrenaline and the momentum of a fight can do a lot of things. Plus Tony isn't superman but he does have a pretty extraordinary survival extinct. If he let Ralph get more than an arms length away after the Raid he probably would have lost, and it was now or never then to get him to the ground, for which at that point he mainly had to grab and use his weight
Everyone has his “comfort video”, one that you keep watching over and over again, on days you feel low etc. This is it for me. I can’t stop watching this video. Shit makes no sense.
Im surprised Ralph didn't make pie o my's death more convincing considering he was more creative than spielberg.
Tony accent got stronger in the later seasons
Jersey. To. The. Bone.
This was long overdue
I've never been so happy to see a fictional character die.
Tony was the hero in this. Nobody can argue with his reasons
Mismatch: Tony had 100lbs on Ralphie! BTW, fight is just a fight, and reconcilable, but when you spray him in the eye with Raid, all bets are off!
before that he went at tony with a butcher knife, that's where the rubicon was crossed.
Gotta love Tony's committment to cooking those eggs
I thought they were going to sit down, talk and have some delicious eggs for breakfast. This really went off the rails 😢
My gf: rubs my belly at night and tells me its sexy.
Every time we have an argument : 2:49
It's criminal how underappreciated this comment is. Genuinely made me laugh.
lmao made my morning
Ultra realistic fight scene.
