One last Suprano's thread...

I got this in my email about the last episode. While some area's have been touched on before this guy has more detail in his take on it.


In fact, the ending was genius if you've paid attention to the show
or are just a fan of well developed well thought out plots that all tie
together and have the memory of a champ to remember it all the
ending was simple, he got killed, but let me tell you why and explain in
detail...

There were 4 people in the room total who had a reason to kill
Tony.....

The two black guys were paid before to kill Tony when his mother put
a hit out on him but he was clipped in the ear in Season One.

The trucker at the booth near Tony was the brother of a Trucker,
Christopher killed in DVD player robbery. We last saw the brother
when
he went to identify his dead brother's body.

And lastly, from the earlier seasons, the Italian man who was
sitting at the counter stool, who the camera kept focusing in on, is Nikki
Leotardo, Phil Leotardo's nephew. He was in one of the early season
episodes where Phil and Tony have a sit down....

Here is where the genius comes in....

When Tony walks into the Holston's, you see the camera focus on him,
then it switches to his perspective, and you see him looking at the
booth he's going to sit at...

Then the camera switches back to Tony's face, then it once again
switches to his perspective, and it shows him looking at the door
and looking at the people come in..... Every time the door opens the
chimes sound....... Carmela walks in, Chimes. AJ walks in, Chimes.

This all happens while Meadow is parallel parking, still trying to
get inside the restaurant....

At this point the camera switches back Nikki Leotardo who goes in
the bathroom...

Then it goes to a scene where Meadow finally parks and starts
running into the diner...

The door is about to open, Tony looks up... and No Chimes... No
Music...Everything just goes black...

In one of the early episodes of the Sopranos, Tony is talking with
Bobby about what it must feel like to die.

Bobby says, "at the end, you probably don't hear anything,
everything just goes black!"

This idea was revisited in the second to last episode during the
last seconds of it, when Tony is about to go to sleep and he flashes back
to the memory of him and Bobby on the boat... "You probably don't
hear anything everything just goes black".

So in the end, the Journey song was playing, the chimes on the door
sounded but when Meadow came in, someone killed Tony.

This is the reason you didn't hear or see anything when he died....
it was from his perspective... and everything went black . . .
 
That is the most well thought out POV I have seen on the ending and now for once and all I can say I agree with that ending. Chase is a guy who is only loyal to his followers, thus the ending that really would require a true fan of the show to be able to understand.

Great post Slat!
