I just binge watched.... After years of thinking tony was arrested....I now lean towards tony getting murked....Paulie n patsy did it
Tension been building seasons with him n Paulie, with their issues coming to a head on the episode remember when, that episode showed Paulie then and there tony didn't trust him for a long time...on blue comet where sil got popped NY was meeting with Nj management about popping tony behind his back, tony even felt questionable about sil once sil told him, plz believe they pressed others, so he told bobby to handle the Phil hit, once they made the decision as tony trusted Bobby most, then after their meet with the top 3, bobby informs Paulie of the Phil hit, with Paulie replying does tony know, and bobby said of course he knows, Paulie the underboss knows now after being nervous of how tony feels of him, that tony has been working around Paulie years and bumped bobby to his seat even past sil meaning he was expendable... Bobby being sloppy not handling things right gives Paulie the line on those hitters from oversees...Paulie and pasty leaves the bar and says don't talk about this out here as if they were scheming, at that point only the top 4 knew of the impending Phil hit, why was patsy privy to this...tony didn't notify his troops til he got confirmation.. Now when NY did the plans for the hit they specifically excluded Paulie and said management only, well only tony, sil, bobby, and Paulie himself could have told ny of his stance in tony crew.....now let's start with patsy who is another who had his target on tony, in the final episodes the tension is high as tony figured out Carlo son snitching, so Patsy and his child could flip any given moment, watching their families together you get the feeling although his son went with meadow they was playing the sopranos for a come up, Carlo son presented a issue he had to silence tony before tony silenced him...between patsy, Paulie and tony there were a lot of weird faces the last few ep...also Charmaine artie wife was fukking with Carmella as she always does over not having a family with tony, and Gide's them over pasty son and meadow, tony leaves the table n charmaine gives camella the smug look and askdoes patsy still work for your husband as even she knew of tony murking his twin, as even with seasons past patsy may have been still chirping about his bro in public...after sil and bobby, Phil are murked the motions is in play, Paulie refusing a high rolling money hustle as if that was beneath him at that point, even using excuses tony would use on him for choosing chris and bobby over him he had his mind made up he would murk tony and had other plans, tony with the last use of his amazing insight mention giving the opportunity to Patsy, and Paulie acts as if he despises Patsy, when they been close the last season and were seen drinking at the bar and Paulie saying to the bathroom what we discuss for our ears... Paulie knew if tony gave that bone to Patsy, patsy may have been content with playing father in law, he might've even told of the plan for the hit...Also patsy son being with meadow gave them a direct line on when and where tony would be
A lot of subtle shyt the last 2 seasons just caught junior getting bad from janice not feeding or giving him his meds, as seen he was fine in the meda in tge facility...junior rather stay in the facility to get a meal n etc, rather than break out with beppy...also in the last episode junior slipped he caught Janice cutting on the stove n putting the flame out, trying to poison him to death, this was something only a adult Janice could do, probably while he was in her care before he shot tony... Once beppy alerted tony about Janice he put two and two about Junes health and tried to bury the hatchet
at the way Tony searched Chrissy to see if he was wired up. Man gave absolutely no fukks when he had the news broken to him. After what happened with Big p*ssy, I can't even blame him though.
