If you were Tony Soprano what would you have done with Tony Blundetto?

[Whips-n-Chains]

Can't turn him over to Phil look what he did to Vito and Vito didn't kill none of his family.

"I loved him like a brother in law"

 

[Zero]

THAT ANIMAL...I can't even say his name

 

[KnickstapeCity]

Phil Leotardo was a little emotional fakkit.

 

[Tres Leches]

I side with Tony S. with this sentiment



You gotta show Blundetto the same protection you would any of the other capos or you lose their faith.

But I would have to let them know we gotta take care of this in house, and the punishment of going against the family's orders are mortal, even for a made man.

I'd have to order Chris to put him down. He gets the anger toward Blundetto out, and takes care of the problem. Idk if that appeases new York but that ship had likely sailed...

Just noticed the convo with Bobby was foreshadowing , New York did come after him in the following season

This is also why Tony was right in his decision to kill Blundetto himself. Even if Tony hands his cousin over to Phil, something else would eventually set Phil off down the line that put him at odds with Tony anyway. If it wasn’t Blundetto, it would have been Vito, or Coco, or something else. If John didn't get locked up, he could have reigned Phil in.

47 years old, just a fukkin kid

Animal Blundetto and the Glorified Crew

 

[Mister Terrific]

Look, The Shah’s brother was only a kid, 48 years young. Howeva, he wasn’t made, so tough breaks. A cousin for a brother. Things settled you ask me. One of Phil’s goons verbally threatened the skippers daughter, we gonna forget about that?

Tony shoulda sent that Animal Blundetto out of town after the Joey Peeps hit(kinda like Janice after she smoked Richie).

This scene

 

[pcpking]

WHATEVER HAPPENED THERE?!!?!?!

Carmine was stupid but I think he totally did that on purpose. he hated on Tony every since his dad said he look at Tony as if he was his own son.

 

[DaRealness]

Nah, Tony was on some bullshyt. Even his men knew that, that's why Sil called him out. Blundetto knew the rules.

Yea that "offering (Tony B) the same protection I'd offer you" was straight cap, the capos knew that Tony was good at protecting his blood-family, while they got ugotz... Tony was only protecting Tony B b/c he was still ashamed & feeling guilty about Tony B going to jail while Tony S missing the job after passing out from arguing w/ his mom.

The "protection" was more about tony protecting his fragile ego more than anything else.

Everyone knew that animal Blundetto had to go, and they wanted it to happen sooner than later. NY was squeezing their operations, and there was already a lot of resentment for Tony B's special treatment (ie getting the casino). Just look at Patsy's sarcastic response to Tony's speech...

Carmine Jr. is a fukkin idiot

carmine jr was a genius

he had T convinced he was on his side, calmed down The Shah of Iran, set up a meet, and proceeded to sabotage it at the last second, knowing it would escalate the beef... and look how it turned out. that pygmy thing over in jersey took out phil, then butchie took out the Soprano crew.. who ended up on top? carmine jr.

man was secretly a genius

I saw that youtube vid “was carmine jr secretly a genius?” That pretty much says what ur saying.

My question is tho why didnt he take the reigns earlier, you know his dad wouldve put him as next boss if he asked for it.
