    i have a theory that in the end of the episode, thats when Tony started loosing faith in paulie a bit more. He gives him a choice. If he wants to go back to look for the russian that means he is on Tonys side and wants him to be safe, because Slava will kill Tony if he comes back. But Pauly says no, indicating he doesnt care that much if it happens, he cares more about himself. Thats why Tony makes it clear that if they get any heat from this, he will throw pauly under the bus and offer him up to Slava. I dont know if anyone else got this from their interaction in the car but i really felt that conversation to be heavy. Anyway, good job Kino and thank you for the episode review.

    • @empac8631
      @empac8631 3 года назад +10

      I always took it more like Tony has a suspicion that Paulie is lying about for sure knowing the Russain’s dead and is trying to give him an out to tell the truth. He’s basically saying “hey if there’s a chance this guy lived, we need to deal with this” and Paulie, tired, cold, hungry and embarrassed decides to lie and say no, as in there’s no point, they’re sure he couldn’t survive. Paulie’s almost swallowing the dread because they aren’t sure and Tony is telling him he’ll be the one to suffer. Also says a lot that despite all of Christopher’s downfalls, Tony knows immediately who started the conflict and why it escalated the way it did. Chris may be impulsive and violent, but rarely unprovoked and always to people he knows won’t be a threat. Chris has more of a way of collecting, making a snide comment at most but usually shootin’ the shit with people. Paulie almost looks for trouble and Tony knows it.

    2:34 the plot hole that always pissed me off. Valeriy incapacitated his would-be killers in about 1 second. He could have killed both Christopher and Paulie in one second more (each). The guy is a friggin PROFESSIONAL killer, he's bigger/stronger than Christopher and Paulie put together, and they'd been making him dig his own grave. He's also holding a great murder weapon. He should have dispatched them, taken their wallets and keys, and gone to Roy Rogers himself.

Surely word would’ve made its way back to the Russian boss who would’ve been less than pleased that they tried to murder one of his best friends for no reason at all.

    Pine Barrens is arguably the funniest episode of any series ever. I laughed so much it hurt. Anyone who’s suffered through similar conditions (and I have), knows that a freezing night in spring wear will turn a ketchup packet into a gourmet meal and automotive carpet into a Canada Goose parka. Michael Imperioli and Tony Sirico’s agony in this absolutely hilarious episode was so convincing, it made me turn up the heat just watching it.

    This episode really placed the basis of paulie and chris' relationship going forward. They have to work together after this but theres always a sense of disrespect between them up until chris dies. It wasn't just the best episode, it ignited a story arc that fueled some of the best moments.
    Also: Grey goose is pandered as premium vodka but everyone knows vodka is all the same bullshit. Its all the same piss with different labels.
