Violent scenes like that were common in the low end and seedy Strip clubs back in the day. After a few minutes and drinks it's back to pole dancing, cheap booze and making it rain dollar bills again.

Paulie suddenly trying to save Christopher is maybe my favourite character moment in the entire series. It’s an extremely rare example of Paulie actually trying to do something selfless for someone else, and adds so much depth to his character.
He did the same thing in Pine Barrens. Chris saw a bunch of berries and Paulie warned him off, thinking they might be poisonous. Those were winterberries he almost ate.
Paulie was hella flawed, like everybody in the show, but one must admit that he cared about the guys, especially Tony and Chris. He knew them since they were kids and sorta treated them like his real family (e.g. putting the painting of Tony on the wall), he only had them and his mom (aunt).
Christopher was later complaining about Tony S. showing favoritism to Tony B. after the Billy Leotardo murder, forgetting that Tony B. had saved his life. He should've at least kept his mouth shut then.
Johnny D how was Christopher the most selfish character on the show when he literally gave every piece of his soul to Tony ? Sticked up for him even when Tony purposely abused chrissy’s absence of a father figure, gave adriana up for tony ( who wanted to fuck adrianna btw) killed a cop who he wasn’t sure actually killed his father etc, Chrissy is just a misunderstood character, a tragic figure
Henry Mena to be fair I don’t think Chris ultimately gave a shit whether he lived or died. Throughout the series he is characterized as being extremely tragic in his outlook on life made worse by his alcohol and drug use.
The first time I heard Tony say *"If you can't accept that I did not do this... Then this is as far as we go."* My stomach literally turned into a knot as if I was actually watching a friend about to meet their maker. That's some great actors saying some great, powerful dialogue.
I'll always give Chris credit for this moment. When Junior did that thing, he was begging not to die. Here and now, knowing but not knowing with Tony, he stared him down and faced his death. Chris was wild, but he was one hell of a soldier. I think Tony just tried to force him to be something else instead of just leaning into his strengths.
Got to have a cool head if you're gonna be Consigliere. Then again maybe if Christopher had come in to protest Columbus Day we would have gotten a different reaction.
@@Nostalgia_Addict end of episode 1 when Tony is grilling then goes over to talk to Chris. Chris starts talking about his screenplay idea and Tony says something like “I should fucking kill you. You know how many mobsters are selling screenplays and screwing everything up” this was foreshadowing because when Tony eventually killed Christopher part of the reason was he couldn’t trust Chris after the events of Cleaver
At 2:40 Paulie actually looks a little heart broken after Christopher lunges at him. He really didn’t want Christopher to die and couldn’t stop him digging his own grave after trying to vouch for him with the comment about the gun being empty.
@@masonf7332 that's how Chris interpretated it hence his reaction. But I think Paulie was saying to Tony "he wasn't really trying to kill you" as a way of getting him to spare Chris. While they fight a lot, Paulie on some level does care about Chris.
@BrennanS he explains it. He assumed Christopher knew the gun was empty after unloading a ton of rounds into tony's car. Which was true because Chris got mad at the gun when it ran out of ammo before entering the Bing
It was revenge for Adriana La Cerva, and a lot of other things. And there was nothing that the Chevy could do about it. Christopher was a made man, and the Chevy wasn't. And it had to sit still and take it. It was among the Italians. It was real grease ball stuff. He even shot the Chevy in the tires so Tony couldn't drive it to the repair shop.
Got to give it up to Chris. Tony tells Chris he's going to kill him on the spot if he can't accept that nothing happened with Adriana and Chris didn't waver at all, looking at Tony with pure hatred. Great acting by Imperioli.
He give him every inch he had since he was a kid and in the blink of an eye Tony constantly disregards it, it’s crazy how much Tony can believe that Chris can Betray him in an instant when he is the one constantly betraying Chris all the time. Even in his final moments, he looks up at the man he has looked to all of his life, the last little bit of life he has draining out of him, and he sees Tony looking at him with pure hatred and disgust. Tony kills him without a second thought and tries to justify it in his own mind that he would kill his kid because of his drug addiction, but it was Tony that caused that drug addiction with the constant trauma he puts Chris through. He Cost Chris everything, the love of his life, his pride, his innocence, his car, his face, his compassion, his family, and finally in the end his life along with the time he will never be able to spend with his child
“You pushed me to this- YOU PUSHED ME TO THIS!” Lmao. Chris has every right to react the way he did over the implication of what happened. I love how much one can despise Tony by the end of the series.
I don't think that right includes severely beating up Adriana, that too with her never actually doing anything other than being the subject of the rumor. Tony was despicable, but Chris was a complete POS. Sure, he was belittled and mocked but he chose to take it out on others who didn't deserve it(Adriana, JT, etc).
@@zakenmaru8612 your girlfriend in a car not on her way home with another man is going to make you paranoid, adding to the fact he knows Tony would fuck any young thing , I mean he fucked a one legged woman just on spec lol
@@brettpilkington9539 dude, that doesn't mean you violently beat up your gf over a goddamn rumor. Chris literally didn't have any actual indication, and in the show they even say that people were joking. Sure, he was belittled by Tony. But beating up your girlfriend over a half assed joke that she doesn’t know about? It was satisfying when Chris finally went
@@zakenmaru8612 it wasn't just a joke though was it, she was in a car with a man, nowhere near home at the middle of the night. Have you ever had a girlfriend? because no man would be accepting of that, beating a woman under any circumstances is abhorrent but you are minimalizing the actual severity of what Adriana was doing. Tony and her were flirting prior to that and something could have potentially happened. If you are in a relationship what Adriana did was very disrespectful, it wasn't just a joke she was in the car with him.
@@brettpilkington9539 i agree that with that it sounds sus. That doesn't justify his violent reaction. He didn't even try to hear her out, he just beat her up. I'm not minimalizing any severity. But a rumor that your girlfriend was with someone else and violently beating her up without even hearing her out are two very clear different types of wrong. She could've told him, yeah, but if he was a good partner, at least he'd hear her out. But no, he didn't even ask how she was after the bad accident. He was angrier about his "honor". Yes, I've had a girlfriend. If a problem comes up with your partner you try to work it out and hear their side. You don't immediately resort to push.
He said "Way I see it Tony, he musta known the gun was empty. Look what he pumped in your car". Meaning (I think) He knew he was coming at Tony with an empty gun at the Bing.
+Joe Palumbo yes I think Paulie was trying to diffuse the situation but Chrissie took it as an insult as if Paulie was saying Chris knew he wasn't really going to hurt Tony but was only threatening him
+Joe Palumbo yeah, I took it as he knew he used all the bullets up on the tires so he really didn't have intention of killing him, just wanted to show his anger in the bar...
Joe Palumbo i think he was sticking up for Chrissy its just Chris didint want them to thinl he drawn down in Toney knowing he was empty he wanted them to think they where lucky it was meaning that he stood to Toney knowing he was ready to kill Tony and he wasnt afraid of the big skipper that the onley reason Tony was alive that is the shot out all his bullets
The worst tragedy of this show was they wrote themselves into a corner on the other Tony's character, & were forced to kill off Steve Buscemi WAY too quick. One of the best characters on the show, only lasted one season. Unacceptable.
I wish he came on earlier instead. I love the story in season 5 but he shows up a bit out of nowhere. Would have been nice to integrate him more gradually somehow, have him get out of jail sooner but keep him as a peripheral character who stays away from the mob for longer.
@@jermyhopkisn9654 I agree. Wish they treated him sort of like Johny Sack. He was around in season 1 and 2, but didn't come into the forefront really until Season 3ish.
I’d say Junior and Tony are the best with Chrissy 3rd. Ralph Richie Aprile and Tony B are all fantastic as well but weren’t exactly main cast for more than a couple or tree seasons.
Anyone ever notice Chrissy was like an extra in the movie with Morgan Freeman called Lean On Me? That late 80s high school one. He was on stage getting expelled.
Hmm, if it was any other person from the crew, Tony would've whacked him. Chris was indeed favourized by Tony and that is exactly what saved him in this situation.
That line and the one before are pretty powerful.. change of emotion between each. One side angry the other sad at the thought of him having to put Chris down.
Christopher was one of the best written, best acted characters in film or tv. It's amazing how sometimes you were rooting for him, and other times you just wanted Tony to pull the trigger already.
Doesn’t help that a lot of his guys from early on either turned rat or plotted against him. After that he just wanted yes men and that degraded his organization over time.
“What kind of fucking animal do you think I am.” Christopher wasn’t completely wrong. If my memory serves me right, there was sexual tension between Tony and Adrianna.
This is definitely one of the intense and amazing scenes. This scene shows the conflict of personality. T is the true villain this scenario since he directly lied to Chrissy and was very committed to end his life then and there. Paulie being the wise guy defusing the situation (though poorly and not considering Chrissy emotions and pride at the moment) to save Chrissy life. Chrissy in a drunken and emotional rage finding out his uncle/boss trying to ruin relationship with Adie, it was his pride on the line as we see Chrissy through the series getting cockie and arrogant caused by T's hypocrisy (even when T lets Sil, Paulie and Chrissy know he's getting therapist, he was disappointed from all the macho talk from Tony when he needed it and now he softened up and getting help). And Blundetto being the most intelligent of the group played the correct cards and successfully defused the situation and saved Christopher. Each character and their personality being developed over time through the series was used perfectly, each character reacted as truthfully as possible.
This is an underrated scene here IMO.. shows that in their own sick way they actually do care about eachother. Anyone else wouldn't even had made it to the cornfields let alone given a chance to explain and even if they were to make it that far they DEFINITELY wouldn't have been spared. Paulie and Tony B both stood in and spoke up for Chris. This is what it sounds like when thugs cry
Well, let's not get carried away: 1.) Christopher wasn't popped immediately due to pure nepotism, plain and simple. 2.) Christopher's gun was empty, and he still nearly got clipped. 3.) The crew knew Christopher's claims of the Boss sleeping with his wife had merit. If Tony S was sleeping with his own nephew's wife, then what do the rest of the crew mean to the Boss? I think the situation was a lot more cynical than you made it sound.
@@Delightfully_Witchy Good points. Plus, Christopher’s blood ties to Carmela would’ve made clipping him very messy on a personal front. Carmela is already disgusted by the rumors, then her cousin disappears into “witness protection” behind it? There’d be no going back for that marriage.
Couldn't agree more. In a show about terrible people Moltisanti is easily near the top of the list in regards to the worst of the worst. However Michael Imperioli's acting throughout the series is just incredible.
I remember watching this episode with my parents live when it aired in 2004. I was just finishing up college. This episode was another standalone that was so exciting. I honestly thought Tony might kill Chris here. This incident led to the deterioration of Tony and Chris's relationship. Christopher always thought in his heart that Tony probably banged Adriana and was never able to let it go. Plus, Christopher with his drug and alcohol problems eventually didn't want to hang out with the guys much which led to more separation. By the end of the show he was more into trying to get involved in the film business than being a gangster.
Paulie sometimes counseled Toney to give people another chance to some degree. He did it with Patsy, by saying ‘they always had an option’ to kill him, but didn’t push for his death. Though Paulie was always about Paulie, that crew was all Paulie had and I think at some level he still somewhat wanted Chris around. Chris was also one of his earners so he probably had a hidden motive to sort of give him a pass.
According to real wise guys, Christopher's character isn't realistic. If a capo or a soilder wouldve acted out this much, no matter the reason, he would not live to see another day. Blood or not.
This never made sense to me. Why would Christopher go in there with a dry weapon outnumbered. If he really wanted Tony dead, he would've saved his bullets till he went inside
The way they leave the stairs at 1:11 is so cool. With the music and their individual expressions. I mean Tony obviously looks badass but also paulie and Tony egg
I love how they all walk down the stairs with Silvio with the loudspeaker Paulie with the face like let’s do this, Tony B putting on his coat, and then of course when Tony comes down with that angry look on his face.
Fun fact; paulie wallnuts got the name “walnuts” because he hijacked a truck thinking it had goods in it; when he opened the truck, it had wall nuts instead. His character saved Chrissy that night….
“You know what to do down there…” has been one of my favorite sequences since first watch. First lines from the show I never even realized I had already memorized and had ready for my subsequent watch.
*Tony: “The thought never even entered my head!”*
Yeah, and I’m playing shortstop for the Mets.

Not selfless at all. He was worried about Chrissy not being alive to pick up all those restaurant tabs 🤣
Why did Chris lash out then, I’m assuming the booze had something to do with his reaction
He did the same thing in Pine Barrens. Chris saw a bunch of berries and Paulie warned him off, thinking they might be poisonous. Those were winterberries he almost ate.
Paulie was regretful asf when Chrissy got killed, despite being a deranged psychopath, in a way he was more human than Tony in the end
Paulie was hella flawed, like everybody in the show, but one must admit that he cared about the guys, especially Tony and Chris. He knew them since they were kids and sorta treated them like his real family (e.g. putting the painting of Tony on the wall), he only had them and his mom (aunt).

Christopher wasn’t completely wrong. If my memory serves me right, there was sexual tension between Tony and Adrianna.
I love Silvio in this scene. Goes to show why he ran the Bing. Always calm and has good customer service.
Sil with the mega phone kills me every time 😂😂
That shot of Tony at 1:10 is so cool
“What kind of animal do you think I am?” Lol it seems the worst kind
Great episode, really felt bad for Chris. I love how it was Tony B who saved him
The atmosphere with the wind and overgrown grassland is great
Sil with the Megaphone is pure gold. Lmao
RIP James Gandolfini, Tony Siragusa and Tony Sirico
YOU DRAW DOWN ON THE BOSS OF A FUCKIN FAMILY?!!!
THAT WAS REAL GANGSTA SHIT..
"Glorified crew"
sil with his megaphone lol
@@bruceorozco777 Nah, fuck you.
This is definitely one of the intense and amazing scenes. This scene shows the conflict of personality.
T is the true villain this scenario since he directly lied to Chrissy and was very committed to end his life then and there.
Paulie being the wise guy defusing the situation (though poorly and not considering Chrissy emotions and pride at the moment) to save Chrissy life.
Chrissy in a drunken and emotional rage finding out his uncle/boss trying to ruin relationship with Adie, it was his pride on the line as we see Chrissy through the series getting cockie and arrogant caused by T's hypocrisy (even when T lets Sil, Paulie and Chrissy know he's getting therapist, he was disappointed from all the macho talk from Tony when he needed it and now he softened up and getting help). And Blundetto being the most intelligent of the group played the correct cards and successfully defused the situation and saved Christopher.
Each character and their personality being developed over time through the series was used perfectly, each character reacted as truthfully as possible.
YOUKNOWWUT2DODOWNTHARE!!
what an odd thing for Sil to say😭😭😭😭
Lmfao Sil with the loudspeaker, "You know what to do down deeeerrrrrr!!!!"
Sil's the fucking best!!! lol
Fucking Sil with the megaphone cracked me up hahaha
This is an underrated scene here IMO.. shows that in their own sick way they actually do care about eachother. Anyone else wouldn't even had made it to the cornfields let alone given a chance to explain and even if they were to make it that far they DEFINITELY wouldn't have been spared. Paulie and Tony B both stood in and spoke up for Chris. This is what it sounds like when thugs cry
Well, let's not get carried away:
1.) Christopher wasn't popped immediately due to pure nepotism, plain and simple.
2.) Christopher's gun was empty, and he still nearly got clipped.
3.) The crew knew Christopher's claims of the Boss sleeping with his wife had merit. If Tony S was sleeping with his own nephew's wife, then what do the rest of the crew mean to the Boss?
I think the situation was a lot more cynical than you made it sound.
@@Delightfully_Witchy Good points. Plus, Christopher’s blood ties to Carmela would’ve made clipping him very messy on a personal front. Carmela is already disgusted by the rumors, then her cousin disappears into “witness protection” behind it? There’d be no going back for that marriage.
One way of ruining someones lapdance, yelling out, "he's got a gun!"
At that moment it would be a "Limpdance"!
is that a glock or are you just happy to se me?
How good is Imperioli in this scene (2:44 and onward, just his eyes and the expression on his face).
“Hopefully he’s worn himself down….”
“WHERE ARE YA, YOU FUCK!!!”
Nope lol 😂
Not a cell phone in sight. Everybody just living in the moment.
chilling moment when tony yells you push me to this! great acting
Couldn't agree more. In a show about terrible people Moltisanti is easily near the top of the list in regards to the worst of the worst. However Michael Imperioli's acting throughout the series is just incredible.
I remember watching this episode with my parents live when it aired in 2004. I was just finishing up college.
This episode was another standalone that was so exciting. I honestly thought Tony might kill Chris here. This incident led to the deterioration of Tony and Chris's relationship. Christopher always thought in his heart that Tony probably banged Adriana and was never able to let it go.
Plus, Christopher with his drug and alcohol problems eventually didn't want to hang out with the guys much which led to more separation. By the end of the show he was more into trying to get involved in the film business than being a gangster.
Lol my man with the loud speaker
Tony B: Tony, come on! You’re supposed to be a professional.
Tony B saw a cops ear hacked off. He was given a soft drink of choice and grilled cheese off the radiator as compensation 🤣🤣
That is the most depressing strip club I have ever seen hahaha
He emptied that 9mm in the parking lot and it didn't attract any attention at all.
Paulie sometimes counseled Toney to give people another chance to some degree. He did it with Patsy, by saying ‘they always had an option’ to kill him, but didn’t push for his death. Though Paulie was always about Paulie, that crew was all Paulie had and I think at some level he still somewhat wanted Chris around. Chris was also one of his earners so he probably had a hidden motive to sort of give him a pass.
According to real wise guys, Christopher's character isn't realistic. If a capo or a soilder wouldve acted out this much, no matter the reason, he would not live to see another day. Blood or not.
Yeah it’s a tv show
"Real wise guys" are all full of shit.
Cause you are a mobster right.....
@@Testsubjex of course! I did 20 years in the can! Quit breaking my balls....
@@tylers6611 Just like Tony wasn’t gonna fuck Ade if they didn’t get in a car crash... 😪
Lol Silvio with the conveniently placed megaphone walkin down the steps 😂
i never realized that Tony Siragusa was the guy threatening to split chrissie's wishbone
This never made sense to me. Why would Christopher go in there with a dry weapon outnumbered. If he really wanted Tony dead, he would've saved his bullets till he went inside
"You're fuckin lucky I ran out of loads" Very easy to bring a spare clip 😂😂
He was drunk lol
The title of the video is completely accurate.. and downright hilarious 😂
The way they leave the stairs at 1:11 is so cool. With the music and their individual expressions. I mean Tony obviously looks badass but also paulie and Tony egg
This the only time Chrissy got everyone shook 😂😂😂😂
So sil just had a megaphone next to him
I love these corporate, group hug, kumbya sessions. It just shows how kinder, gentler can work in any organization.
I love how they all walk down the stairs with Silvio with the loudspeaker Paulie with the face like let’s do this, Tony B putting on his coat, and then of course when Tony comes down with that angry look on his face.
Total gangsta
Lost it when Sil shouts on the megaphone from up there.
"The thought never even entered my head!" Listen, we can never know what enters another man's head, but I don't believe Tony there. Call it a hunch.
Equal parts hilarious, equal parts self destructive foreshadowing ... 1:02 Christopher being swallowed by Tony Siragusa's belly seems like lol
RIP Siragosa
Fun fact; paulie wallnuts got the name “walnuts” because he hijacked a truck thinking it had goods in it; when he opened the truck, it had wall nuts instead. His character saved Chrissy that night….
He must have crawled underneath me for warmth.
“I’ll split your fucking wishbone”. That was absolutely hilarious.
2:17 The bouncer in the background smiling as he calls bullshit on Tony.
“You know what to do down there…” has been one of my favorite sequences since first watch. First lines from the show I never even realized I had already memorized and had ready for my subsequent watch.
Silvio with a megaphone is a real treat
Chris never had the makings of a varsity sharpshooter.
His accuracy in this show was actually sick.
What? Chris was the headshot king. Best shooter in the crew.
That's when he decided to leave the mob, become a karate sensai, and award Dwight Schrute his black belt
Paulie tries to save Chris by telling Tony he knew the gun was empty. But Chris tries to attack him.
