Carmela Soprano
- Carmela Soprano: [to AJ] So every time I asked you "how was work?" you say "fine", you were having your own private little joke on me.
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [Tony enters the room] what's going on?
- Carmela Soprano: I went to Blockbuster to rent Cinderella Man, but guess what?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Is it still a classic?
- Carmela Soprano: I found out our son, the liar, was fired three weeks ago
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: From Blockbuster? They have the worst managers over there.
- Carmela Soprano: He was taking promotional items and selling them, stand ups.
- A.J. Soprano: Standees, this whole thing is bullshit, most of that stuff gets thrown out anyway.
- Carmela Soprano: The store's policy was very clear
- A.J. Soprano: Yeah, well maybe I care about the environment did that ever occur to you? "'Wallace and Gromit" that weighed like fifty pounds, how many trees gave their lives for that? It just goes to the dump.
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Can I come to a peaceful house one God damn night?
- A.J. Soprano: You always tell me to think like a business man, yet every time I do there's something wrong, I was making money throwing parties in high school that was no good.
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You know what I think, all those days you call in sick, you show up late, you deserve to get canned
- Carmela Soprano: The worst part is: you don't even give a shit
- A.J. Soprano: I should give a shit about Blockbuster? I can't live on what they pay me anyway.
- Carmela Soprano: Why not? You live at home, we feed you.
- A.J. Soprano: You have a social life but I can't, you have any idea what it costs at a descent club in New York? It's five hundred dollars for a bottle of Cristal, and it's a two bottle minimum.
- Carmela Soprano: You spend a thousand dollars a night on champagne?
- A.J. Soprano: [Lying] no, not every night, barely ever
- Carmela Soprano: [before turning on the light] I can't sleep
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after being woken up by her] Somebody call?
- Carmela Soprano: [referring to AJ] It's not only his a complete stranger to the "truth", his got this "dead streak" in him: It chills me to the bone
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Fuckin spoiled that's all, we gave him too much
- Carmela Soprano: He went to school with a lot of privileged kids, most of are off in ivy league universities now, doing very well. No, this "something" in him, deep down it's like this big "fuck you" to everything
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I don't know what that's about?
- Carmela Soprano: You remember the whole "God is dead" business? The day of his confirmation?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Maybe he'll surprise us?
- Carmela Soprano: [sarcastically] Aren't you the "sunny optimist", when you wanna go to sleep?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [jokingly, over the phone] is Paris burning?
- Carmela Soprano: [while on vacation] hi, you busy?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: no, just bullshitting with Sil, how's it going?
- Carmela Soprano: actually, it's cold, raining
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [jokingly referring to a line from the 1953 Cole Porter song "I Love Paris"] but it drizzles, huh?
- Carmela Soprano: your worse than Roe, I'm going out of my mind with these pop references. I am seeing some incredible things: talk about the History Channel, you would love it here
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: how's the toast?
- Carmela Soprano: [confused] the what?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: the French toast
- Carmela Soprano: actually, they call it something else: you heard from Meadow?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: more than I thought, you know this kid knows how to do absolutely nothing? She was asking if she needs to get the car serviced "regularly" because there's no snow out there
- Carmela Soprano: [referring to AJ's nickname] how's "Prince Albert?"
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: he'd fit right over there in France, none of those dipshits wanna work either, I did get him to hose down the trash cans
- Carmela Soprano: that's something
- Carmela Soprano: your probably busy, I'll let you go, I just wanted to say hello, I miss you
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [before hanging up] I miss you too, be careful
- Rosalie Aprile: [while in a restaurant in Paris] I love this Foie gras, I can't get enough of it
- Carmela Soprano: the presentation alone gives you calories
- Rosalie Aprile: [referring to their sight seeing] who cares? We shouldn't feel guilty: we walked our asses off
- Carmela Soprano: you know what's strange? When you go to a place you've never been to before, it's like all the people were "imaginary" until you got there? It's like until you saw them, they never existed and you never existed to them?
- Rosalie Aprile: I don't know, maybe your more of a "philosophical" person than I am?
- Carmela Soprano: it just made me think, that's all: it's the same when you die. Life goes on without you, like it does in Paris when we're not here
- Rosalie Aprile: [referring to shopping] tomorrow, we "hit" the stores!
- Carmela Soprano: when we were in Saint-Eustache, I noticed you lit two candles: one for Jackie Sr. and one for Jackie Jr. right?
- Carmela Soprano: [after Roe nods] you know, we never really talked about that
- Rosalie Aprile: [confused] about what?
- Carmela Soprano: Jackie Jr.
- Rosalie Aprile: what's there to talk about?
- Carmela Soprano: I didn't mean to "invade." If there's anything you wanted to share, I can't imagine losing a son
- Rosalie Aprile: [irritated] Jesus, we're on vacation, we're having a beautiful dinner: why would you bring this up?
- Carmela Soprano: I didn't mean to upset you, it's just that I thought we had this time together...
- Rosalie Aprile: [interrupts her] it's fuckin morbid, that's what it is
- Carmela Soprano: I'm sorry
- Rosalie Aprile: his dead, his gone, what can I do about it? Light a candle, I "pictured" him with his dad, and with his grandma who he loved, and with Jesus. What's the matter with you? Why would you bring New Jersey here? Why can't we just have a good time?
- Carmela Soprano: your right, I apologize
- Rosalie Aprile: I'm going out with Bissell tonight
- Carmela Soprano: ok
- Rosalie Aprile: you know, you're welcome to come, I mean that
- Meadow Soprano: I saw the light was on, can I come in?
- Carmela Soprano: [in bed next to Tony] yeah, sure, Hun
- Meadow Soprano: I'm going to California, I don't know for how long
- Carmela Soprano: California, what're you talking about?
- Meadow Soprano: Finn took that year off and it was great when dad was hurt: he was here for me but now his going back to dental school, I want to be there with him
- Carmela Soprano: I thought you two were having problems?
- Meadow Soprano: I never said that, I don't know if I want to go law school or med school?
- Carmela Soprano: those are nice options to have: that's what we call a "high class problem"
- Meadow Soprano: his dad said he can get me a lab job in UCLA, where he teaches oral surgery. I mean, if I decide on med school, that'll look really good on my application
- Carmela Soprano: what your really saying is your following this man to California?
- Carmela Soprano: [after Meadow shakes her head] Meadow you drop this "bomb" on us at one thirty in the morning, forgive us if we need time to adjust
- Meadow Soprano: well, I have to make plane reservations
- Carmela Soprano: you'll be back for Christmas at least?
- Meadow Soprano: I don't know, no pressure please, ok?
- Carmela Soprano: I need to talk to you, remember about that trip to Paris, I won at the silent auction at the feast?
- Carmela Soprano: [after he nods] well, the date is here and I think I would like to go
- Carmela Soprano: [irritated when Tony doesn't respond] you don't remember the first God damn thing about this do you? We stood right here talking about it for fifteen minutes
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I know, you won a trip to Paris
- Carmela Soprano: why do you have to lie?
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I'm not, you're always saying I'm lying, why Paris?
- Carmela Soprano: well, it is one of the great cities of the world
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [referring to slang stereotype of French people because they eat the Amphibian] the "frogs" hate us: go to Italy
- Carmela Soprano: they weren't auctioning a trip to Italy. It's actually a good deal: it's a week for two for five thousand dollars
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: how's the euro doing?
- Carmela Soprano: I don't know, I had three years of high school French
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: I can't get away for a week
- Carmela Soprano: I could go with Roe, we've talking about taking a trip together for years ever since our Rome thing went belly-up
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [referring to their son constantly misbehaving] with Anthony walking through a plate glass door?
- Carmela Soprano: I could really use a vacation now, with Meadow leaving: my spec house, the thought of tearing it down and having to start over makes me nauseous
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: yeah
- Carmela Soprano: plus, I just don't know what to do anymore
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: [after thinking it over] you know what? You should go: you deserve it
- Carmela Soprano: it'd be good for you too, do whatever boys do on their own
- Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: whatever, I said go, we'll be fine
- Carmela Soprano: [after kissing him on the cheek] I'm so excited, I'm gonna call Roe
