Can we all just appreciate that her date, some normal-ass looking average guy who has probably never thrown a punch, stood up to Coco like a man to defend Meadow? Now that's REAL balls.
The New York guys thought the New Jersey outfit was small-time. They didn't take Tony or his crew seriously so guys like Coco felt they could get away with doing shit like this,
As someone in another video pointed out, this comes after Tony and Phil had a sit-down and Phil mocked Tony in front of a bunch of Lupertazzi guys and basically told Tony to go pound sand. Coco was present for this and laughing. Undoubtedly came away thinking of Tony as weak and ineffectual.
@Oliver Swanick Haha! But in all seriousness though. For his unhealthy appearance, you still felt like he was a threat. Albeit mostly with a gun, but he seemed very heavy-handed.
The way Tony says "yeah? What else did he say?" Is so powerful and such great acting. You could see the visible rage in his eyes but you're also aware he's trying to downplay the situation to not freak out his family. Just incredible
My thinking was that NY set this up, in order to provoke Tony into doing something stupid and then getting to whack him in the final episode. In my mind, by telling on Coco Meadow got her dad killed.
@@EssexAggiegrad2011 No, he wanted to know if the offense was just words, or it it went further. "pulled crap" is very vague. If she had said finally that she was grabbed or slapped, Tony would have dealt with him more permanently.
@Airborne Poet your an idiot, I'm almost certain that your one of those attention seeking assholes who talk in platitudes and misguided pseudo-wisdom Just for attention...if you were really serious, you would have succeeded... And even if you did, you would have looked at the conversation as it is, and not interject bullshit to make it about you... Anyone who actually deals with death in that manner has respect for it and appreciates life, not brag about it... You are disgusting
I love Tony's expressions during the whole conversation with meadow. You can clearly see as he progresses from "Ill break his legs" to "he's never gonna walk again" to "death it is."
I’m sure Tony intended to kill him, but he didn’t die. Later on Little Carmine brings it up to Tony and says “you almost killed the guy”. Not sure how he survived a 280lb man stomping on the back of his head. Maybe he’s a shopping cart from here on out lol.
Tony: Hey Coco, this is Mr Williams(Furio). Furio: You gotta a bee in you ah mouth. Coco: You knocked all my $&@?!/& out!!! Furio: Doncha b***h to me. I killed the stupida bee.
Carm knew what was about to happen you could see it in her face. Meadow was sitting there wondering what could possibly happen. The whole scene too funny
Tony is in the middle of a nasty war with these people. Yet, when the kid says “coco pulled some crap”, Tony is truly taken aback. Plus Coco’s daylight teeth-rape does NOT invite any retaliation from Philly. They shrug it off like Coco had it coming. Kids truly were off limits.
@@wickeywaanzla3015 you could say the botched hit on Phil lookalike in Blue Comet was the real catalyst, which they only decided to do because some of Tony's guys were talking about jumpking ship
@@alialjabr7251 Jackie Jr is asking every wacked guy he runs into in Purgatory if they know who his father was. Sort of like one of those Greek tragedies
That scene is probably the most gangster shit I've ever scene. It's not just the way tony handles it, it's the way he speaks to meadow, making light of the situation and assures her that everything's ok. When you know that his intentions are going to be absolutely brutal. That's why it's why it's one of my favourite scenes from the Soprano's
Grahamers Boi !! You nail it...it's how Tony operates and why he is who he is the false security he lures you into to extract info..but his face says it all when he goes "Oh...he did?" The right back into actor mode...ahhhh..."they guys an idiot..someone will talk to him" That someone will be him however ...great scene...nobody emotes like Gandolfini
Tony *had* to play it cool with Meadow. Because: a) If Meadow had suspected that Tony would hurt or kill Coco, it opens her up to perjury if she had to lie about it under oath or in a police investigation; and b) Tony didn't want Meadow to say something like, "Please Dad, just let it go." All part of trying to insulate his daughter from his crime world.
I agree, the way he was smiling and telling her that he’s harmless, it’ll be ok, yet possessing a total intensity. You knew shit was going to hit the fan.
Gabriel Salyer Lmao someone's watched American history x and is basing their information off of only that. People die sometimes, people live sometimes. It's not instant death lll
Tony in a way had no choice, he had to save face once he found out about it. Even the New York crew must have know something was going to happen. On top of that, they had no leg to stand on if they even thought to get payback for what Tony did. No one in the mob could give them a pass to get back at Tony for what he did to Coco. In a way, not killing him was a compromise. And if he did, he ONLY would have had a sit down to explain why and his actions would have been justified.
Yeah it was like he was speaking in code: "He's an idiot...I'll talk to somebody" is what Tony said, but what he really was saying was "This guy crossed the line...I'm gonna put him in the hospital."
Whoa...unmatched by ANY other actor? You guys with this show have gone overboard. I challenge you to watch Jack Nicholson in the "Shining" and then you tell me if James Gandolfini "matches" anything that Nicholson did in that movie...and I do mean ANYTHING. Or why not watch American History X with Ed Norton and see just how insane and angry a man can get just showing up for his job as an actor and then watch him deliver it in real time. There are PLENTY of actors out there who know how to bring the pain and to a higher intensity than Gandolfini. Brando, Tom Berenger (Platoon), Willem Dafoe, John McGinley, Matt Dillon, Brad Pitt, and I could name at least a hundred more actors that know how to do it quite well.
@@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry Jack Nicholson is a great actor... and did amazing in shining. But a role like that can be played by many great actors.. I personally believe James's role on sopranos was ground breaking for a tv show. I doubt any other actor could match James perfomance for this role.
This may be the most terrifying he’s ever looked throughout the entire show. Doing this series probably drained him - Gandolfini was notoriously shy and reserved. there is no way you can channel that amount of anger into a character and not have a kickback in reality.
SpaceOrbison Not sure why people are liking this considering you’re implying that pedophilia isn’t wrong because the people enforcing laws are pedophiles themselves, yeah let’s stick it to the man and fuck some kids...
@@Reaver1223 Yeah I was thinking those dirty jokes must've been around for Tony to immediately become enraged at hearing only half the whip cream line. He probably wanted confirmation of the joke but after seeing his daughters reaction to the "What else did he say?" question, he knew to reel in the rage in front of her and just go handle it from there.
The scene where he kills the rat outside the log cabin was up there because its the first time you see tony kill anyone and especially because the rest of the episode hes just a dad hanging out with his daughter but yeah i gotta agree this was the most badass scene of the lot
Its incredible how angry Tony was when he beat the crap out of Coco.. he has gotten mad a lot of the time during the series but this was next level rage. What an actor RIP Jim Gandolfini
This after desert episode when Tony accepted his dark nature and wasn’t hung up on being a good guy anymore. Tony used what happened to meadow as a way to deal all the rage He’s been building up with the New York beef
@@davidthompson184 i love how active the comments are on sopranos clips lol, it's a testament to the entertainment value. i agree though, dude's a dumbass. but tony, a 300lb oaf, stomped on the back of his head after viciously beating him with a revolver. if that had killed him do u still think it would be a measured response? i guess in the mobster world, maybe, seeing as johnny almost had ralph whacked for the fat joke lol.
@@XPureXProductionsX I’m pretty sure in the mafia world, family is off limits. Then to pick literally the worst possible candidate in the mafia‘s family, which would be a mob bosses daughter. Even if Tony killed Coco, I doubt there would be anything Phil could really do about it. I would imagine all the other New York families, would totally agree that Coco should have been killed or basically sexually harassing a made guys daughter.
The funniest part is that in a later scene of this episode, Tony is shown at a family counseling session and finds one of Coco’s teeth in the cuff of his pants.
Stargreened exactly and by that point things were so bad that if Tony kept his cool and did what he was supposed to do by Mob code and go through Phil first to carry out discipline whether it was a tax on Coco or his death, Phil would’ve just dismissed Tony
@@josecano9210 Probably cause Phil imo never got over Tony B killing his nephew or whatever he was to him and not getting to exact his revenge on him . Phil clearly hated Tony's guts.
@@BlackangelKatakuri Much younger brother, in fact. But yeah, you're pretty much completely right. And Phil just seemed to have a constant murder boner, and was always looking for an excuse.
I couldn’t stand Phil throughout the series. He’s like the male version of Tony’s mother in his pettiness. Both characters justify their actions only through appearing emotional when they’re calculating, petty people.
The fact that he knew exactly whose daughter she was and continued his daily life like there wasn't going to be any retaliation, with no protection or any general awareness is just amazing Stupidest character in the show no doubt
@@rob67w that was the point of the whole thing. Melfi admitted to being a little starstruck by having the infamous Tony Soprano as a patient. She could have gotten that rapist killed at the click of her fingers but in the end she opted not to go down the vigilante justice route.
God, the look on Tony's face on 2:00 is absolutely haunting. You can see all that rage in his eyes, but he stays composed for his daughter. What incredible acting!
@@1450JackCade I think his daughter saw it anyway, and knew that every word she said was going to mean a beating for Coco. Maybe even going for a swim in a pool filled with lye.
True, but when he asked Meadow "what else did he say" and she gave that look to her mother that indicated it was too bad to repeat...that's when Tony clicked....Coco's fate was sealed at that moment.
A few years ago I was a background extra at this set in Long Island for a David Chase movie I'm not sure got released or not, during the takes I had the opportunity to see him on set, even if it was from a distance.
It was a message for his father. Why bothering in telling Meadows about his father if he wanted just to harrass her?He didn't want to hide.He just didn't expect such reaction. This is how mobster s live. It's just a matter of power and respect. If you don't preserve respect you lose power. If you don't exercise power through fear you don't gain more of it. This time soldier Salvatore Cogliano pushed the line too much targeting the wrong person...
This is my favorite scene from The Sopranos. I was flipping through the channels one day and saw this scene and that's what convinced me to watch the whole series. So brutal.
When she tells Tony about the whip cream remark and Tony says "yeahhh?"...that is the most murderous yeah ever uttered. You see the rage almost breaking through his eyes. Gandolfini was so damn good
That Coco threatened his daughter and her date with lewd comments and acted like he was going to sexually assault her. Coco acted like he could get away with that. I don't believe in violence, but I think Tony effectively cleared up Coco's confusion.
That's the thing with the mafia they could go places where you and I can't go without suffering the consequences. Nobody in New York including Coco going to talk to the cops over this. The average guy decides to do street justice with beating up someone with a gun and he is looking into major assault charges using a deadly weapon. Same thing with the Doctor that had the big ego because Junior went to get a second opinion so he dismissed him as a patient. You and I can't do shit about it if your doctor sends you to someone else but Tony and Mr. Williams can ;)
Really an amazing series of scenes. We learn that New York under Leotardo has lost all respect for New Jersey so much so that a middle-level thug can harass the daughter of the boss. Then we see a reluctant Meadow passing this information on to Tony who now understands the situation with New York. Tony then sends a message not only to Coco but to New York as well. Later when Butch makes a deal with Tony I think it can be traced to this beating where Tony proved to be someone worthy of working with and certainly someone who demands respect. The writing on this show leaves so much up to the viewer, it doesn't spoon-feed us everything. RIP James Gandolfini.
@@iletaMarchita That is a possibility, but not a certainty. In Tony's mob world, it would have to be taken into consideration. But others present at that meeting also know Butch rolled over on The Shah so rubbing out Tony doesn't silence the mumbles.
not just respected but downright feared as well. Think about it, Tony walked up to both these guys ON HIS OWN, and he might've done this on their turf too. Then there's Phil where he put out the hits then had his family looking for the NJ leaders, all while he went into hiding like a scared little girl. Tony showed the NY family 4 things here: he isn't to be fucked with, he stands by his family, he doesn't take orders from anyone (under him at least, in this case, it's Butchie) and he's not scared of anyone
No, when he beats up the muscled up guy for no reason other than to make a statement tops this. He just cheap shots Coco and pounds on him after he's down.
True, but the meathead got up and Tony kept pounding away on him. He probably could have kicked Tony's butt was kind of shocked by the whole thing and a little scared of the boss.
Jeff Brown Yes but this wasn't about fighting fair. This was about defending his daughters honor. When you threaten a man's children, especially if that man is Tony Soprano. All bets are off.
Andrew Elias Its not like the dude had his back turned to Tony, he was staring straight at him, and couldn't react. Then gets knocked to the ground, gets up, tries to punch Tony. Tony grabs his arm, and shoves him into the fridge. He can't do much with that one arm. Tony beat that dude in a fair fight, just like he would have beaten Coco's ass too.
Tony was a man, a real man. He stood up for his wife, kids & family. He did what a man is suppose to do. Unfortunately there are too few men around these days.
If that were a real scenario....which I wouldnt be surprised to hear it had happened at some point in real life....I bet the guy had some respect after being curbstomped.
Notice how Tony's body language completely changed once Meadow mentioned that Coco asked if she was Tony's daughter. That's when Tony knew for sure that it wasn't just a random run in between a drunk and a girl at a bar, but rather it was an intentional personal approach from Coco's end and he knew exactly what he was doing. That's of course also when Tony made up his mind to pay Coco a visit.
Love that when Tony asks "Yeah, what else did he say?" neither Meadow nor Carmela say anything else. It's like they already know Tony will be the storm that is soon approaching.
Gandolfini should have won an Emmy for those two scenes alone. He is jovial at first when he walks in on Carmella and Meadow, totally ready for a little joshing. Then Tony reads the room and is quizzical. He gets his answer and slips just a little bit, a tiny hint of rage seeps thru. The women pull back and Tony reads that too and goes down a gear so he can asks further questions and get as much information as possible. You and they can tell he does not like what he's heard but Tony doesn't want them to worry so he plays down like we're going to only talk. He even smiles at the end to assure them that this a situation that will be handled with mere words, a stern reprimand perhaps. Then Gandolfini the man of a thousand faces who was Mr. Sensitivity incarnate goes straight into harbinger of boom Avenging Angel mode. It's Armageddon time NOW. Consequences be dammed. Coco is effortlessly splintered, mutilated and mangled irregardless of fact that he is made man and resident enforcer. Tony is so enraged that Butchie the capo of much more established family barely escapes becoming collateral damage for merely being adjacent to his target and having the effrontery to intervene. The atonal jazz playing in synch with frenzied smackdown. Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Jimmy should have won every award for everything. Tony Soprano is probably the most important character ever made and only James Gandolfini could have done it. What an amazing man he was.
I believe Carmella and Meadow decided Cocos fate here. Both of them knew inside what would happen if Tony found out. And they told him anyway. Beautifully played in my opinion👏
I just re-watched this episode last night and it was so obvious, they knew exactly what was going to happen. It was like they were getting excited talking about it, knowing that Coco wasn't going to be in one piece much longer. Sitting there having coffee like two proper mafia princesses.
You're totally missing the point of this show and the season 6 theme (the progressively darker lighting = decline of the mafia). This is Tony at his absolute worst, impulsive, and psychotic with no regard for the lives of his close family/friends that ended up dead or nearly dead as a result (his brother in law Bobby + his right hand man Silvio), or his business associates(Phil, Coco), or even himself (killed in the last scene as confirmed by david chase in 2020's interview), all for a personal vendetta. For what? Attempted murder for words from a drunk man (not a single finger was laid on his daughter or threat + even her bf stood up for her). Tony from the earlier seasons would have never been so stupid/reckless (he reminded chrissy in earlier seasons that Phil's gang had 100 soldiers). He's a shell of his former self here (just like the mafia today). Tony's death was inevitable and justified after this.
@@pavelshliaha1706 She was accosted by a very dangerous member of the mafia. If Tony did/said nothing, who's to say he wouldn't be emboldened to do worse next time?
@@marcd73 Tony to Carmine later when he comes to his senses: "I lost it. the timing couldn't have been worse". Tony either killed or screwed his closest family here, and never would have been this stupid in earlier seasons. Mob relations were already on the brink. Diplomacy (sit down) and buying time against a much stronger opponent during a crisis was the right move. The earlier cold and calculating Tony would know this and may have found a way to divide Butch, Phil and Carmine later. Threatening Butch was moronic too (revenge). Phil didn't want to kill a Boss, but this suicidal psychotic move by Tony was the straw that broke the camels back. Now with Silvio, Bobby, Tony dead, only Paulie, the dumbest, most selfish mobster, is left to protect Meadow from mobsters, provide for Carmela, and take care of AJ (who tried to kill himself in season 6). Paulie won't care at all (e.g. in the hospital he and Vito only kicked up to Carmela after Tony's condition stabilized). Even doing nothing would have been far better.
3:24 If you look closely Tony is limping. The limping was caused by a rock James Gandolfini would insert into his own shoe to piss himself off for these types of scenes.
Two things I like about this scene, the way Carm nodded when Tony said: "I will talk to someone" and that music when Tony entered the restaurant anticipating some show, lol =)
As much of a bastard Tony Soprano can be, how he dealt with Coco here made me respect him so much. He didn't bring a single other person into it, he went there himself and did it. Respect earned
@@pickamoveWhat are you kidding? Name any other modern era family boss who would have done this himself. Someone else would have been sent over to take care of this.
The character, it's not a real person, it was a low life scumbag who if the opportunity present itself will steal everything you owned if it was worth it to him and beat you to death or shoot you if you got his way. You people who've gotten like all of your morality and heroes from TV in the last 20 or 30 years are real fucked up.
The acting in this show is truly next level. Very few shows, or films, have this level on consistently excellent acting and character work. I don’t like Tony as a person but as a character Gandolfini gave him a humanity that made it difficult not to just watch him and be fascinated and charmed but be scared and repulsed at the same time. So great.
'Soprano's' dirty little secret is that every character in the show has a nasty flaw no matter how likable they are. It's a brilliant part of the show.
I grew up my whole life 5 miles north of the Bada bing, the whole cast nails the accents and mannerisms , watching this is like talking to be people at the grocery store.

He obviously didn't know who he was.

I like how Tony went there himself, making the statement that he doesn't need thugs to protect his family. A man protects his own family. And he did
THAT-PART
Sammy the Bull Gravano would probaby explain it like:
"Never involve another members family, and take revenge immediately yourself."
Too bad this escalated into a war that got him killed.
@@BrokenGodEnthe was dead anyway realistically. Phil was slowly moving on him and Tony wasn’t budging.
I bet you'd let a group of blacks rob you and you wouldn't do nothing
2:01 : when Tony says "yeah?" ,
It's actually when the count down for coco begins.
Spot on. I love his expression.
That's when I went .. uh ohhhhh
It's a subtle moment, that expresses an extreme level of pure and utter rage.
It's a look that says "oh, this guy wants to die? Fine by me."
I think it was one Meadow ask Tony if he knew CoVo….I think that’s when all bets were off
She didnt even tell tony the worst part.."id be happy to add to it" omg he woulda def killed him for that
He curbed stomped him...... that’s killing him...
@@mathewchambers5087 It's later mentioned that he survived.

@@nkt1 He probably became a vegetable tho lmao
She probably knows her dad is gonna beat the shit out of him already, if she told him that Tony would've definitely killed Coco
This shows how much Tony loves his daughter! He always told her how much and this just proves it. I miss the show and I loved Tony so much!
All things considered, Patsy's kid held his own.
He wasn't mobbed up himself. He is the son of a made man. I think he would have a legitimate beef to hit Coco.
@@catsandalcohol99 That's what I meant by "all things considered".
Jakie Jr should learn something from him.
Patsi compromised: he pissed in Tony's pool, Meadow probably swam in it and then he gets his son to tuck in Tony's daughter at night. Not at all bad.
@@alialjabr7251
Jackie Jr is asking every wacked guy he runs into in Purgatory if they know who his father was. Sort of like one of those Greek tragedies
That scene is probably the most gangster shit I've ever scene. It's not just the way tony handles it, it's the way he speaks to meadow, making light of the situation and assures her that everything's ok. When you know that his intentions are going to be absolutely brutal. That's why it's why it's one of my favourite scenes from the Soprano's
Grahamers Boi !! perfectly explained hell yea
Grahamers Boi !! You nail it...it's how Tony operates and why he is who he is the false security he lures you into to extract info..but his face says it all when he goes "Oh...he did?"
The right back into actor mode...ahhhh..."they guys an idiot..someone will talk to him"
That someone will be him however ...great scene...nobody emotes like Gandolfini
He had to do that to make her talk. He did good. People need to learn some fun respect for people's daughters and wives etc
Tony *had* to play it cool with Meadow. Because:
a) If Meadow had suspected that Tony would hurt or kill Coco, it opens her up to perjury if she had to lie about it under oath or in a police investigation; and
b) Tony didn't want Meadow to say something like, "Please Dad, just let it go."
All part of trying to insulate his daughter from his crime world.
I agree, the way he was smiling and telling her that he’s harmless, it’ll be ok, yet possessing a total intensity. You knew shit was going to hit the fan.
coco is lucky that's all he got.
dat username tho...
Why lol he was fine like 3 episodes later
+OlderG0ds Curb stomp is an instant death, it snaps the neck and jaw at the sametime.
Well in this case he lost some teeth but his neck was intact
Gabriel Salyer Lmao someone's watched American history x and is basing their information off of only that. People die sometimes, people live sometimes. It's not instant death lll

I always wondered Butch finished his meal after that . They never answered that plot hole ..
Fancy seeing you here.
💀😂😂
Beautifully savage.
Seriously. It would have been a shame to waste those meatballs, they looked pretty good.
I'm sure he gotta doggy bag lol
Coco broke one of the oldest mob rules: Families are OFF limits. This is why he almost got killed.
He survived.
Coco should have been taxed on top of the ass whooping he received.
Was coco a made man?
Yes. He was made. But he broke mob rules, when it comes to families. That is why Tony laid him out.
Tony in a way had no choice, he had to save face once he found out about it. Even the New York crew must have know something was going to happen. On top of that, they had no leg to stand on if they even thought to get payback for what Tony did. No one in the mob could give them a pass to get back at Tony for what he did to Coco. In a way, not killing him was a compromise. And if he did, he ONLY would have had a sit down to explain why and his actions would have been justified.
One of my favorite scenes in the entire show he said "Ill talk to somebody" and handled it himself like the boss
yeah, but he was the boss. the boss should delegate that to one of his soldiers to do with a message from tony.
@@trinihammer that's his fuckin' DAUGHTER!
Yeah it was like he was speaking in code: "He's an idiot...I'll talk to somebody" is what Tony said, but what he really was saying was "This guy crossed the line...I'm gonna put him in the hospital."
Just to put his daughters mind at ease. Still doing it himself, he was always going to make sure Coco would be enjoying his soups from now on.❤😂😂😂

Meadow has ordered more hits than most of the bosses.... Lets see... Coco, the soccer coach, vito, i am sure I'm forgetting a few
Jackie jr
Actually that’s true. Like Tony once said to Livia about her, Meadow is the real gangster.
The soccer coach wasnt killed.
Technically meadows boyfriend got Vito killed. Vito kinda got himself killed.
@@johnnyboombats1 she had nothing to do with Jackie getting whacked?
The way Gandolfini’s eyes and facial expressions gave so much information into his character is unmatched by any other actor
Whoa...unmatched by ANY other actor? You guys with this show have gone overboard. I challenge you to watch Jack Nicholson in the "Shining" and then you tell me if James Gandolfini "matches" anything that Nicholson did in that movie...and I do mean ANYTHING. Or why not watch American History X with Ed Norton and see just how insane and angry a man can get just showing up for his job as an actor and then watch him deliver it in real time. There are PLENTY of actors out there who know how to bring the pain and to a higher intensity than Gandolfini. Brando, Tom Berenger (Platoon), Willem Dafoe, John McGinley, Matt Dillon, Brad Pitt, and I could name at least a hundred more actors that know how to do it quite well.
Your comment is overboard lol. Sesh, chill, it was just his opinion. People these days, get so offended. @@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry
@@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry Jack Nicholson is a great actor... and did amazing in shining. But a role like that can be played by many great actors.. I personally believe James's role on sopranos was ground breaking for a tv show. I doubt any other actor could match James perfomance for this role.
True,it was his role and he went all in
This may be the most terrifying he’s ever looked throughout the entire show. Doing this series probably drained him - Gandolfini was notoriously shy and reserved. there is no way you can channel that amount of anger into a character and not have a kickback in reality.
Meadow literally got more and more beautiful with each season.
Yea, crazy how puberty and going from a little girl to a full grown women will do that right?
She was underage in 3 of those season so watch what ur saying

Warms my heart. You rock Mr Soprano. RIP 🙏🏼
Let’s just take a moment to realise that this was Tony’s reaction after NOT even hearing exactly what Coco said.
He grasped the entire context from what Meadow was implying, trust me lol
@@Reaver1223 Yeah I was thinking those dirty jokes must've been around for Tony to immediately become enraged at hearing only half the whip cream line. He probably wanted confirmation of the joke but after seeing his daughters reaction to the "What else did he say?" question, he knew to reel in the rage in front of her and just go handle it from there.
It’s doesn’t exactly leave much to the imagination.
He read it all on Meadow's face. Didn't feel the need to make her repeat it
He heard enough
The meeting with AJ's therapist right after Tony half killed CoCo was hilarious. He literally finds a bloody tooth in the middle of the session. 🤣
He's lucky Furio didn't go along
Yoooooooo.. he's even more old school than Tony. That dude would have been neutered.
Jajajaja, yea bro, he got off easy, he's stupid too, too predictable to be talkin shit. Tony found his ass in a heartbeat lol
Youa gotta bee ona you hat.
Give me 1000 teeth

This and the Good Fellas pistol whip scene, are the two greatest "quick revenge" scenes ever created.
Most badass scene in the whole series
yup
for real that was fucking metal
It's either this or Furio shaking down the brothel.
MrMalicious ah fuck yeah for sure
The scene where he kills the rat outside the log cabin was up there because its the first time you see tony kill anyone and especially because the rest of the episode hes just a dad hanging out with his daughter but yeah i gotta agree this was the most badass scene of the lot
Its incredible how angry Tony was when he beat the crap out of Coco.. he has gotten mad a lot of the time during the series but this was next level rage. What an actor RIP Jim Gandolfini
As a father of a daughter 👧🏽, I can understand his rage.
What's not to understand?@@sickofguysnamedtodd2293
This after desert episode when Tony accepted his dark nature and wasn’t hung up on being a good guy anymore. Tony used what happened to meadow as a way to deal all the rage He’s been building up with the New York beef

@@XPureXProductionsX I’m pretty sure in the mafia world, family is off limits. Then to pick literally the worst possible candidate in the mafia‘s family, which would be a mob bosses daughter.

Remember what Tony said to Phil at Johnny Sacks daughters wedding. "when it comes to daughters all bets are off"
Stargreened exactly and by that point things were so bad that if Tony kept his cool and did what he was supposed to do by Mob code and go through Phil first to carry out discipline whether it was a tax on Coco or his death, Phil would’ve just dismissed Tony
@@josecano9210 Probably cause Phil imo never got over Tony B killing his nephew or whatever he was to him and not getting to exact his revenge on him . Phil clearly hated Tony's guts.
@@BlackangelKatakuri Much younger brother, in fact. But yeah, you're pretty much completely right. And Phil just seemed to have a constant murder boner, and was always looking for an excuse.
I couldn’t stand Phil throughout the series. He’s like the male version of Tony’s mother in his pettiness. Both characters justify their actions only through appearing emotional when they’re calculating, petty people.
Coco broke the rule first, family is off-limits.
The fact that he knew exactly whose daughter she was and continued his daily life like there wasn't going to be any retaliation, with no protection or any general awareness is just amazing
Stupidest character in the show no doubt
Right up there with his wife and kids....
I think he was just super arrogant and dismissive of the Jersey guys
Nah Fat Dom takes the cake for the dumbest character. “What? I’m just breakin’ balls”
Yes, Tony said he's an idiot...
Leotardo injected his family with the false sense of security with Sopranos
Christ imagine if Tony found out about Dr Melfi's rapist...
I thought that she would ask Tony if he knew someone to get rid of the problem
Allways bugged me he never found out.
That is one of my life's regrets!!!
I never understood why they left that unfinished. She got raped and just forget about it ? Tony could of easily killed him or sent a hit on him
@@rob67w that was the point of the whole thing. Melfi admitted to being a little starstruck by having the infamous Tony Soprano as a patient. She could have gotten that rapist killed at the click of her fingers but in the end she opted not to go down the vigilante justice route.
That’s how a father defends his daughters honor, just business!!
God, the look on Tony's face on 2:00 is absolutely haunting. You can see all that rage in his eyes, but he stays composed for his daughter. What incredible acting!
Yeah, that's a great acting right there. James Gandolfini could act.
Lost him too soon.
@@1450JackCade I think his daughter saw it anyway, and knew that every word she said was going to mean a beating for Coco. Maybe even going for a swim in a pool filled with lye.
True, but when he asked Meadow "what else did he say" and she gave that look to her mother that indicated it was too bad to repeat...that's when Tony clicked....Coco's fate was sealed at that moment.
2:01 “Yeah?”
That’s one of the things I’ve always noticed about James Gandolfini, his eyes told a story 💯 R.I.P. ✊🏾
Only James Gandolfini can play Tony Soprano.
He will be missed.

***** no way!!! Forget that nonsense
A few years ago I was a background extra at this set in Long Island for a David Chase movie I'm not sure got released or not, during the takes I had the opportunity to see him on set, even if it was from a distance.
Engelbert Delrosario he was a good man.
I know his son is going to do the character justice cant wait to see the movie.
This is how you handle a 95 pound mole situation John.
Ralphie was higher ranked and made way more money than Coco
Coco was a nobody who knows of he was even made
@@cant-stand-ya3335 exactly that's why John went after someone in Ralphie's crew instead of ralphie
OMG these comments are priceless !
There's differences Jordi, between this and the Ginny Sack situation.
Tony: "What else did he say?"
Meadow: "He told me to go home and get my shinebox."
After watching this scene again I don’t think Coco ever intended for Tony to find out. The guy he was with said his name and Meadow heard it.
True
His buddy doxed him!
Never noticed this, I was wondering why he didn't think it'd eventually get back to Tony. Great observation
It was a message for his father. Why bothering in telling Meadows about his father if he wanted just to harrass her?He didn't want to hide.He just didn't expect such reaction. This is how mobster s live. It's just a matter of power and respect. If you don't preserve respect you lose power. If you don't exercise power through fear you don't gain more of it. This time soldier Salvatore Cogliano pushed the line too much targeting the wrong person...
Coco was an idiot, he didn't think through his actions.

This is my favorite scene from The Sopranos. I was flipping through the channels one day and saw this scene and that's what convinced me to watch the whole series. So brutal.
When she tells Tony about the whip cream remark and Tony says "yeahhh?"...that is the most murderous yeah ever uttered. You see the rage almost breaking through his eyes. Gandolfini was so damn good
That Coco threatened his daughter and her date with lewd comments and acted like he was going to sexually assault her. Coco acted like he could get away with that. I don't believe in violence, but I think Tony effectively cleared up Coco's confusion.
That is handling things like a boss. You would think the guy would have had more sense then to insult a mob bosses daughter.
I don't believe in violence, but I support curb stomping.
In the Mafia, touching someone's family is strictly off limits.
That's the thing with the mafia they could go places where you and I can't go without suffering the consequences. Nobody in New York including Coco going to talk to the cops over this. The average guy decides to do street justice with beating up someone with a gun and he is looking into major assault charges using a deadly weapon. Same thing with the Doctor that had the big ego because Junior went to get a second opinion so he dismissed him as a patient. You and I can't do shit about it if your doctor sends you to someone else but Tony and Mr. Williams can ;)
I never understood why Coco said what he did to Meadow.. KNOWING the grave consequences which would ensue.
I See Nothing Wrong With Tony's Actions!!!💯💯
He murdered a man over a comment
@alaskantundrawolf8831 So You're Cool With Someone You Clearly Have Issues With, Telling Your Daughter He Can Put More Cream On Her Face??
Really an amazing series of scenes. We learn that New York under Leotardo has lost all respect for New Jersey so much so that a middle-level thug can harass the daughter of the boss.
Then we see a reluctant Meadow passing this information on to Tony who now understands the situation with New York.
Tony then sends a message not only to Coco but to New York as well. Later when Butch makes a deal with Tony I think it can be traced to this beating where Tony proved to be someone worthy of working with and certainly someone who demands respect.
The writing on this show leaves so much up to the viewer, it doesn't spoon-feed us everything. RIP James Gandolfini.
Well said
Excellent analysis
u forgot the part where butch decides to kill tony (final scene) cuz tony knows butch betrayed phil
@@iletaMarchita That is a possibility, but not a certainty. In Tony's mob world, it would have to be taken into consideration. But others present at that meeting also know Butch rolled over on The Shah so rubbing out Tony doesn't silence the mumbles.
not just respected but downright feared as well. Think about it, Tony walked up to both these guys ON HIS OWN, and he might've done this on their turf too. Then there's Phil where he put out the hits then had his family looking for the NJ leaders, all while he went into hiding like a scared little girl. Tony showed the NY family 4 things here: he isn't to be fucked with, he stands by his family, he doesn't take orders from anyone (under him at least, in this case, it's Butchie) and he's not scared of anyone
"wan schum?"

For every video of
"Tony Soprano's most badass moments"
This scene should be #1 on all of them.
No, when he beats up the muscled up guy for no reason other than to make a statement tops this. He just cheap shots Coco and pounds on him after he's down.
Well, he sucker punched the muscley guy, too, for that matter.
True, but the meathead got up and Tony kept pounding away on him. He probably could have kicked Tony's butt was kind of shocked by the whole thing and a little scared of the boss.
Jeff Brown Yes but this wasn't about fighting fair. This was about defending his daughters honor. When you threaten a man's children, especially if that man is Tony Soprano. All bets are off.
Andrew Elias Its not like the dude had his back turned to Tony, he was staring straight at him, and couldn't react. Then gets knocked to the ground, gets up, tries to punch Tony. Tony grabs his arm, and shoves him into the fridge. He can't do much with that one arm. Tony beat that dude in a fair fight, just like he would have beaten Coco's ass too.
Tony was a man, a real man. He stood up for his wife, kids & family. He did what a man is suppose to do. Unfortunately there are too few men around these days.
Great idea: I'll harrass a mob boss's daughter........the fuck.
that guy deserved everything he got
+Ugly Coyote SEXUALLY harass. Not too bright...agreed.
If that were a real scenario....which I wouldnt be surprised to hear it had happened at some point in real life....I bet the guy had some respect after being curbstomped.
His a new jersey boss, they dont deserve that much respect
+Nixon Perez Say that to one of those bosses, you'll regret it i'm sure
Notice how Tony's body language completely changed once Meadow mentioned that Coco asked if she was Tony's daughter. That's when Tony knew for sure that it wasn't just a random run in between a drunk and a girl at a bar, but rather it was an intentional personal approach from Coco's end and he knew exactly what he was doing. That's of course also when Tony made up his mind to pay Coco a visit.
Alright Ray Liotta. By the end of your comment, I was reading it in his voice.
As far as i can remember i always wanted to be a gangster….
Being a Father. This part gets me everytimeeeee in all the proper ways.

yeah this is some taken level stuff
Yep
Couldn’t have agreed more.
If someone said that to my daughter I might have killed him
Love that when Tony asks "Yeah, what else did he say?" neither Meadow nor Carmela say anything else. It's like they already know Tony will be the storm that is soon approaching.

Owwwwww... Leo can say he did something that no Tony: I whacked this motherfucker that busted my balls ahahahaha

Chris Emanuel unfortunately the actor who played Coco and the guy you are referring to later died of his injuries. Great acting though in both roles.
Yup, and he got his ass beat up for running his mouth in that movie as well! LOL
Great actor.
Gandolfini should have won an Emmy for those two scenes alone. He is jovial at first when he walks in on Carmella and Meadow, totally ready for a little joshing. Then Tony reads the room and is quizzical. He gets his answer and slips just a little bit, a tiny hint of rage seeps thru. The women pull back and Tony reads that too and goes down a gear so he can asks further questions and get as much information as possible. You and they can tell he does not like what he's heard but Tony doesn't want them to worry so he plays down like we're going to only talk. He even smiles at the end to assure them that this a situation that will be handled with mere words, a stern reprimand perhaps. Then Gandolfini the man of a thousand faces who was Mr. Sensitivity incarnate goes straight into harbinger of boom Avenging Angel mode. It's Armageddon time NOW. Consequences be dammed. Coco is effortlessly splintered, mutilated and mangled irregardless of fact that he is made man and resident enforcer. Tony is so enraged that Butchie the capo of much more established family barely escapes becoming collateral damage for merely being adjacent to his target and having the effrontery to intervene. The atonal jazz playing in synch with frenzied smackdown. Beautiful. Just beautiful.
I fuckin' love your elaboration, dude!
👏
Beautifully said
That was exceptionally well said. You put all my own thoughts into words.
Jimmy should have won every award for everything. Tony Soprano is probably the most important character ever made and only James Gandolfini could have done it.
What an amazing man he was.
I believe Carmella and Meadow decided Cocos fate here. Both of them knew inside what would happen if Tony found out. And they told him anyway. Beautifully played in my opinion👏
I just re-watched this episode last night and it was so obvious, they knew exactly what was going to happen. It was like they were getting excited talking about it, knowing that Coco wasn't going to be in one piece much longer. Sitting there having coffee like two proper mafia princesses.
meadow had no idea what was gonna happen, it was carmella who knew
He didn't to him self
Meadow was afraid of what was going to happen
yep, it is supposed to contrast Melfi and her incident/dream
Meadow left out the worst part “I want to add to that cream on your mouth.”
As a father of daughters, this is the best scene of the entire series.
yes father's love for their daughter is the most powerful force on earth
By your profile picture I’d say I wouldn’t trust any kids around you with that choice of Stache on ya lip
Exfuckingzactly…..😂🎉😂🎉
And you think that is proportional?
So sons don't matter?
Coco got more than just his enthusiasm curbed.
In my eyes, THIS was Tony’s most magnificent moment. EVER.
You're totally missing the point of this show and the season 6 theme (the progressively darker lighting = decline of the mafia).
This is Tony at his absolute worst, impulsive, and psychotic with no regard for the lives of his close family/friends that ended up dead or nearly dead as a result (his brother in law Bobby + his right hand man Silvio), or his business associates(Phil, Coco), or even himself (killed in the last scene as confirmed by david chase in 2020's interview), all for a personal vendetta.
For what? Attempted murder for words from a drunk man (not a single finger was laid on his daughter or threat + even her bf stood up for her). Tony from the earlier seasons would have never been so stupid/reckless (he reminded chrissy in earlier seasons that Phil's gang had 100 soldiers). He's a shell of his former self here (just like the mafia today). Tony's death was inevitable and justified after this.
@@whatamireading91 You're missing the point. It's not a grand symbolic scene. It's a father protecting his daughter, rules be damned.
@@marcd73protecting his daughter? What danger is Meadow in here, that this warrants “protecting”?
@@pavelshliaha1706 She was accosted by a very dangerous member of the mafia. If Tony did/said nothing, who's to say he wouldn't be emboldened to do worse next time?
@@marcd73
Tony to Carmine later when he comes to his senses: "I lost it. the timing couldn't have been worse".
Tony either killed or screwed his closest family here, and never would have been this stupid in earlier seasons. Mob relations were already on the brink. Diplomacy (sit down) and buying time against a much stronger opponent during a crisis was the right move. The earlier cold and calculating Tony would know this and may have found a way to divide Butch, Phil and Carmine later. Threatening Butch was moronic too (revenge). Phil didn't want to kill a Boss, but this suicidal psychotic move by Tony was the straw that broke the camels back.
Now with Silvio, Bobby, Tony dead, only Paulie, the dumbest, most selfish mobster, is left to protect Meadow from mobsters, provide for Carmela, and take care of AJ (who tried to kill himself in season 6). Paulie won't care at all (e.g. in the hospital he and Vito only kicked up to Carmela after Tony's condition stabilized). Even doing nothing would have been far better.
if meadow told tony the line about adding to the whip cream.........think tony would have killed him.....
If she said he touched my face he would be closed casket
You can bet Carmela told him the entire story before he went over there.
I think Meadow refusing to respond pretty much got the point across.
+AirCanMaster na....meadow should have told him

You know Quasimodo predicted all of this
There's some bts footage that showed him getting in character, he would be punching cars and shit
Two things I like about this scene, the way Carm nodded when Tony said: "I will talk to someone" and that music when Tony entered the restaurant anticipating some show, lol =)
Gotta give respect to Meadow’s date for standing up for her. Coco totally had it coming.
patsy son of course
He’s the one she likely ended up marrying
@@breck6520 she does, she says in the finale
Twice his size too.
I loved that moment. Coco could have easily killed him, but he stood up anyway.
As much of a bastard Tony Soprano can be, how he dealt with Coco here made me respect him so much. He didn't bring a single other person into it, he went there himself and did it. Respect earned
Thats what boss of a family does when its personal.
Coco broke a rule here. You are not supposed to harass the family of another made-man, especially a boss.
@@pickamoveWhat are you kidding? Name any other modern era family boss who would have done this himself. Someone else would have been sent over to take care of this.
@@NIKOLAP7there ain't no rules anymore. It's mentioned many times throughout the show.
The character, it's not a real person, it was a low life scumbag who if the opportunity present itself will steal everything you owned if it was worth it to him and beat you to death or shoot you if you got his way.
You people who've gotten like all of your morality and heroes from TV in the last 20 or 30 years are real fucked up.
No one ever gives a shout out to the hard working hospitality staff. No freak out, just a simple mop and back to work as per usual.
Now here’s the varsity athlete we’ve been waiting for. Kicking ass and taking names.
“I’ll talk to somebody....”
That transition is always hilarious. No hesitation.
The acting in this show is truly next level. Very few shows, or films, have this level on consistently excellent acting and character work. I don’t like Tony as a person but as a character Gandolfini gave him a humanity that made it difficult not to just watch him and be fascinated and charmed but be scared and repulsed at the same time. So great.
Many, MANY TV shows and, especially, films have had ensemble acting as good and better. "The Soprano" need not be praise with brainless hyperbole.
'Soprano's' dirty little secret is that every character in the show has a nasty flaw no matter how likable they are. It's a brilliant part of the show.
@@mja91352they're excited and praising a great show, relax. We need not be pedantic.
@@megmucklebones7538The Wire would like to have a word with you.
I grew up my whole life 5 miles north of the Bada bing, the whole cast nails the accents and mannerisms , watching this is like talking to be people at the grocery store.
so glad Tony was able to talk to him. You should always strive to resolve your issues with diologue.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So glad those many years of therapy really helped Tony out to handle his anger issues!

@@joeh6236 😂
Shame Coco didn’t have anything to say about it
One of the best revenge scenes ever.
I hope Coco's Dentist has the makings of a Varsity Athlete.
