rumor has it the FBI agent gets involved with Christopher and Andrianna at Christopher's request.I was hoping Danielle would have to engage in some hot GoG action with Adrianna at some point to maintain her cover. They can leave Christopher out of it.

What you say may be true, but I never heard of Enron in Sept of 2001, as I am sure most people hadn't. The whole Enron thing didn't become widely known until it was in jokes on Leno and Letterman, in Time magazine, etc. in the last 6 months. I don't think a character like Tony would be following Enron closely in the first couple months of the scandal, before the media was oversaturated with the story.The only thing I remember of September 2001 was what happened on the 11th. Like I said, reports of accounting impropriety started appearing in August when Skilling resigned. Questions over how exactly Enron made its money began much earlier. Search the archived articles at BusinessWeek and Fortune and you'll find some prophetic words by analysts involving the word "implosion" at least as early as March 2001.
If Tony did not know that Enron's bubble was about to burst in most spectacular fashion, perhaps Tony meant something else when he said "I don't have those Enron-type connections." He said it in reply to Carmela who suggested investing in stocks instead of stuffing cash in a mattress (at "zero growth" she said), so he might have been referring to Enron's stock value, the fact that it had been trading at an extremely high multiple. Before Enron's stock went into decline in 2001, Enron was the darling of Wall Street. Tony would have loved to have gotten in on the ground floor on Enron's stock and then cashed out when it peaked at $90/share.
Why would it? Nothing has changed. The show has been in HD since the second half of season 2.
3. Paulie seems pissed.Must be the orange jumpsuit.
Diner? Wasn't that a Hooters? I thought I saw a hooters sign on the building.I think Pete's referring to the diner where Notre Dame is discussed, although I can't figure out which Wayne diner it is...Pete and I have been to them all. As I pointed out earlier, that is a Hooter's, as far as I can tell, the one on Route 23 near the Willowbrook Mall also in Wayne.
The construction site featured in tonight's episode is in Secaucus on Meadowland Parkway (the overpass is Route 3), it's now an "Extended Stay America" or some such. I wasn't sure until they thanked Secaucus in the credits.
