    I thought that this was very funny. Yet another instance where it all comes down to money. A variation of the Chris and his sponsor, when he lent him the money with interest and had him roughed up when he could not pay. Hey, it was just business—nothing personal.

    I don’t think so Jason. Carmela, though she knew too much, was also too wise in the ways of Tony’s world to spill the beans. In fact one outcome I considered very possible a few episodes ago was the Ade would tell the girls of the pressures she was under (she almost did in one instance) and...

    Not at all—I’m pretty sure that the other writer’s mentioned were real as well. To the Dick Wolf and L&O references the value the pawn shop owner placed on the Emmy cracked me up. Maybe if it was an Oscar or something…but TV? And chiming in on the quality of this show (and this season)...
