Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe restaurant where Tony and Pussy eat at the episode's end is the actual Duke's Stockyard Inn in New Jersey, an Irish bar. This venue seems to stand as silent, implied defiance by Tony of the warning he'd earlier heard from Chris in his near-death vision/dream, about an Irish bar.
- GoofsWhen Paulie meets with his priest at the priest's office the priest's desk is backwards. You can tell due to the desk drawers facing away from the priest.
- Quotes
Christopher Moltisanti: I'm going to hell, T.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You're not going anywheres but home.
Christopher Moltisanti: I crossed over to the other side.
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: You what?
Christopher Moltisanti: I saw the tunnel. And the white light. I saw my father in hell.
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: Get the fuck outta here!
Christopher Moltisanti: And the bouncer said that I'd be there, too, when my time comes.
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: What bouncer?
Christopher Moltisanti: The Emerald Piper. That's our hell. It's an Irish bar where it's St. Patrick's Day every day forever.

This is a compelling and dramatic episode with some darkly humorous moments.
Several characters have a strong focus, particularly around their belief systems. All scenes involving Carmela are written very intriguingly as we see her religious conviction exists alongside her hypocrisy. Edie Falco gives one of the strongest performances of the episode.
Paulie Walnuts' character is expanded in a number of ways. His spiritual side is hilariously portrayed in several scenes, along with some gentle and sensitive moments. Tony Serico is on top form in some of the character's most entertaining scenes in the show.
I won't say anything else about the plot not to spoil, but it's safe to say that it has a number of very gripping moments. Personally I don't think it works quite as well on a rewatch as some other episodes when you know what's coming
Drea DiMatteo, James Gandolfini, Michael Imperioli, and Vincent Pastore are give strong performances, particularly DiMatteo.
The production values are excellent. As always the storytelling is done with great visuals and sound.
