Quotes 

• Carmela Soprano : [after he pulls a prank on her by pouring a glass of cold water while she takes a warm shower]  You did that on our honeymoon, and I didn't like it then and I asked you to promise you'd never do it again

  Tony Soprano : It's just a little cold water

  Carmela Soprano : Yeah, well, it's really unpleasant. Do you remember promising me?

  Tony Soprano : So, you can do it back to me

  Carmela Soprano : I don't want to do it back to you

  Carmela Soprano : [raises her voice]  Do you remember promising me?

  Tony Soprano : Yeah, so, what?

  Carmela Soprano : So, this is one promise I would like you to keep

  Tony Soprano : [disappointed when she's not amused by his prank]  whatever

• Carmela Soprano : [while bringing him a cup of coffee]  here, I made it with a lot of milk and sugar: it's a lot more comforting that way

  Carmela Soprano : [seeing him upset, rubbing his shoulder]  you sure you don't want some eggs or an English muffin, or something? You're coming back?

  Furio Giunta : I hope so: Immigration, they make problems

  Carmela Soprano : maybe Tony can help with that?

  Furio Giunta : yeah

  Tony Soprano : [after coming down the stairs]  the hell you still doing here? I thought you were flying out to Naples?

  Furio Giunta : I just drop off the shirts from Patsy's guy

  Tony Soprano : alright, but you should be on your way to see your old man

  Furio Giunta : Cancer is everywhere in his body: cancer don't respect nothing. You know it started in his lungs...

  Tony Soprano : [interrupts him, hands him a roll of cash]  you need any money?

  Furio Giunta : I'm good

  Carmela Soprano : [to Furio]  Please call and let us know

  Furio Giunta : [to Tony]  I'm sorry, your gonna have to get someone else to drive you tonight

  Tony Soprano : Not a problem: go

• Tony Soprano : [asking her if she wants him to pour her wine while holding the bottle over her glass]  a simple yes or no will do

  Carmela Soprano : please

  Carmela Soprano : [after Tony orders desert and coffee for everyone, to Brian]  can I ask you a financial related question?

  Tony Soprano : come on, the last thing the guy wants to talk about is talk shop.

  Janelle Cammarata : go ahead, ask him anything you want: it's all he likes to talk about

  Carmela Soprano : it's no big thing, I was just wondering if you had any ideas what Tony and I should do with the "proceeds" from the property we sold in Newark?

  Brian Cammarata : [assuming she's referring to the real estate scam he and Tony were involved in with the Department of Housing and Urban Development]  HUD?

  Carmela Soprano : [confused]  what?

  Tony Soprano : [jokingly, pretending Brian is drunk, covering up for Brian's mistake, referring to the 1963 western]  the kid loves Paul Newman movies: no more Grappa for you

  Carmela Soprano : [to Tony]  you know what I'm talking about, uncle Junior's lot over on Frelinghuysen Avenue

  Tony Soprano : [referring to the money they made from the sale]  oh yeah, that, it all went into the trust

  Brian Cammarata : T-bills, I was able to lock you in before the rates dropped

• Rosalie Aprile : I remember this charity going towards my family when Jack died, I didn't know how to pay the phone bill: Jackie always did everything

  Carmela Soprano : Well, he paid the bills, other than that, it's the same with Tony, trying to find out where the money is, how much we have, and I get such resistance

  Rosalie Aprile : I didn't know what we had until I buried Jackie

  Carmela Soprano : was it enough?

  Rosalie Aprile : Sort of... not really but how much is enough anyway?

  Carmela Soprano : I don't know: that's my point. Doesn't anything ever change? Women are supposed to be partners nowadays, I'm not a feminist, I'm not saying fifty, fifty but Jesus. I put up with this comàre shit, pardon my French. I made my peace with it: as best I could anyway

  Rosalie Aprile : Isn't your cousin Brian handling your money now?

  Carmela Soprano : the big things, the investments: his doing well too. I do have to give Tony credit there, he did meet me half way, which was a very step for him, I know

  Rosalie Aprile : So, maybe you have nothing to worry about?

  Carmela Soprano : I don't know... Tony pulls people into his circle, I don't know what to think
