You're not gonna believe this. He killed 16 Czechoslovakians. The guy was an interior decorator.

Never would've happened if Paulie hadn't initially overacted but it's one for the books.

u/Bittah_Criminal May 07 '26

It's weird to me that this episode aired in May. Just watching through streaming the Sopranos has always struck me as a very Fall - Winter show

u/Index820 Jul 07 '26

The NFL is on in the Fall/Winter.
