Quotes 

• Tony Soprano : [referring to Hugh's accident]  How's your father?

  Carmela Soprano : much better: He'll be fine for the party, thank God

  Tony Soprano : That's good, what party?

  Carmela Soprano : Seventy fifth birthday, the surprise party we talked about last summer?

  Tony Soprano : Oh, yeah, that's coming up?

  Carmela Soprano : Yeah, next Saturday but actually, that's why I wanted to come by, I think it maybe it would be best... easier anyway for both of us if I went at it alone and not have you there?

  Tony Soprano : Oh, yeah

  Carmela Soprano : You know my father would love to have you there, you know? His crazy about your sausages and all the rest of it but I thought that's why it would put "us" and people in a "uncomfortable" situation?

  Tony Soprano : I decided when I woke up that I wasn't coming

  Carmela Soprano : Really? I'm so glad you understand: it was hard for me to come to this decision let alone tell you

  Tony Soprano : [while taking money out]  I'd like to contribute anyway

  Carmela Soprano : No, mom and I are taking care of it

  Tony Soprano : For Hugh's seventy fifth? I insist

  Carmela Soprano : You know, I'd rather see you go back to your therapist

  Tony Soprano : [angrily]  I'd like to see you go see a therapist and I'm not the only one

  Carmela Soprano : Oh, really? Well, you can tell them all that I can't afford it

  Tony Soprano : Well, it's really not your "business" anymore whether I go or what

• Carmela Soprano : so, dad, how does dinner at Vesuvio sound for your birthday next week?

  Mary DeAngelis : just us, we'll come here first for presents and then we'll go over there

  Hugh DeAngelis : [smiles]  sure, sure, that sounds fine

  Carmela Soprano : did "somebody" tell you "something"?

  Hugh DeAngelis : I know all about it: you can save the cloak-and-dagger

  Mary DeAngelis : [assuming he spoiled the surprise]  AJ?

  A.J. Soprano : huh, what?

  Hugh DeAngelis : Junior Soprano told me all about it

  Carmela Soprano : that miserable fucking man

  Mary DeAngelis : ugh

  Carmela Soprano : you don't know the half of it

  Hugh DeAngelis : relax, I'm fine with knowing. In my age, it's a "surprise" to be able to get out of bed every morning. So, who's coming to the shindig?

  Carmela Soprano : God damn him!

  Mary DeAngelis : all of us: your brother Lester, Dr. Fegoli

  Hugh DeAngelis : Russ Fegoli? His in town?

  Mary DeAngelis : he retired from the Foreign Service

• Carmela Soprano : [referring to Mary apologizing to the Fegolis' for Tony's behavior during Hugh De Angelis' 75th birthday party]  your sorry, for what?

  Carmela Soprano : [when Mary tries to walk away]  no, I wanna hear

  Mary DeAngelis : oh, please, the off-color jokes, the sausage twirling...

  Carmela Soprano : Tony?

  Mary DeAngelis : these are "cultured Italians", Russ is a successful diplomat, this was a shock for them

  Carmela Soprano : his such a diplomat, he insults his host? You heard what he said to Tony, he is a pompous man: he always was

  Mary DeAngelis : let's talk about this another time

  Carmela Soprano : [referring Tony and Carmel's separation]  that's why you didn't want Tony here. It had nothing to do with the "marital situation". All along, it was so your "cultured Italian" friends, who were born and raised on Arthur Avenue, I might add, wouldn't meet your "Gavone" son in law

  Mary DeAngelis : he made all of us look like "Gavones"

  Carmela Soprano : whatever we are, I am proud of it, unlike you obviously

  Mary DeAngelis : I have always been proud of my heritage

  Carmela Soprano : [referring to their surname]  oh, bullshit, I remember you and aunt Rose telling me you two were relieved that "DeAngelis" didn't end in a vowel

  Mary DeAngelis : I never said that

  Carmela Soprano : [referring to when she was born]  and when Meadow came out, you said "Oh my God, she's so dark"

  Mary DeAngelis : your drunk, I'm going home

  Carmela Soprano : there are Italians all around with their closet self-loathing, I just never wanted to believe my mother would be one of them... and what the fuck are you crying about? Your secret is out
