J- “Things could’ve gone the other way” T- “Yeah well they didn’t” Then T proceeds to ask what’s wrong with his heart Idk if they hate to love each other, or love to hate each other
It’s more of a hate that they love each other. I think some part of junior truly loves Tony because he just is your prototypical gangster through and through, and I honestly think junior takes pride in knowing he probably had a small hand in Tony being the way he is. On the flip side they both have to constantly compete with each other because at the end of the day they are both the bosses of New Jersey, and their egos are simply to big to admit that both of them are the boss of the family. Even if in the end it is Tony who is all alone with that responsibility.
🤔 Let’s not forget that Junior tried to take out a hit on Tony, or when Junior did all the other scummy shit to Tony and vice versa. I’d say is definitely a hate on hate relationship, only because of the power struggle between the two for control, and the fact that the mafia life basically rules every facet of their reality and they can’t ever break from it.
I missed Tony saying that about Bobby when I watched this before. So Bobby was in hiding for a while fearing for his life. Makes sense; Tony did call him "the last man standing".

***** I think the Wire shows that the old generation were honourable and loyal, the new generation are impulsively violent and power hungry without a shred of decency. Doesn't that reflect all too well with the Mafia.
Haha, it's pretty obvious you're just a fucking sheeple who repeats whatever he reads or hears: you probably haven't watched the show or you probably didn't even like it, and yet you read that the critics acclaimed this show as one of the best tv shows ever (which it is) and you repeat the same simply because that's what you see everyone else does.

Junior was really lucky that he got arrested, where Tony couldn't kill him. Afterwards, Tony got comfortable with his uncle, too comfortable, just not the way people would've imagined.
Yeah I was surprise by how in the later seasons their relationship seemed good Tony often going to him for advice and Junior given good genuine advice. Until of course Junior started having dementia and shot him but I think Tony later understood he wasn’t in control of his actions
rofl that ending, tony slams the phone and gets up quickly and Junior as well retaliates by doing the same thing on que. I can't tell if Junior is doing it genuinely or just because Tony did it or something?
+RebirthWoWGuild Tony was able to end the conversation on the upper hand by ignoring Uncle June's question. Junior always wanted to be liked by others, he began to feel as if he was having a friendly conversation with Tony, and Tony just hung up on his question without giving a fuck about answering him. It shows Tony has the upper hand, that's why Junior was pissed off. It's primal subconscious social interaction.
No, I think its because if Tony answered that question, that evidence could be used against him. Junior just got carried away, mob bus should never be discussed in a setting like that
Mr. C. Had nothing to do with that. Tony hanging up and leaving was basically telling junior its none of his business. He was told what to do. End of story

All of this drove Carmela up the wall, since she (unlike Tony) had no illusions about Junior.
What for." What happened to "these fcs listen to everything."..😂 gotta love junior. Old school and was willing to do his time and keep it closed. My estimation of him as a man did not plummet because of this.
in the seasons after tony found out his uncle wanted to kill him and actually attempted it, he was still going to his house making sure he was ok, put Bobby in there to wait on him hand and foot, etc. i just never understood it...even here when Tony tells him that his hit failed and how he was gonna make him pay he asked about his heart in the same breath. the following season when he told him about Richie moving on him (after richie couldn't get support to whack him) and also scene in the 3rd season when he sits with him in his house and just flat out asks him "dont you love me?" it was a very weird relationship - even more than his with Chris
