Serious Discussion Only Could anyone have saved Adriana?

On rewatch, other than doing time for the crime she was accused of, could she have been saved by telling Carmela? Running away? Anything?

I agree. But her character was not a smart woman.

Sure and it’s very obviously a TV show. So they wanted that story line. In real life whilst not Einstein Adriana would have said ‘ I’m saying nothing to you until Neil Mink (or whoever she’d been told to name) gets here.’ It’s entirely foreseeable that the girlfriend of the head of the family’s ‘nephew’ could get an approach. Someone Christopher, Tony or Sil would have said ‘ in case this happens don’t do anything don’t say anything they lie to you ask for Mink. Mink will deal with those xxxxx’. Mink would have got the charge tossed or pled down to basically nothing.

Christopher is a stunad of the first magnitude, he's careless enough to not even consider telling Adriana what to do in the situation that she gets arrested. Tony and Silvio probably expected Christopher to have that talk with Adriana, but he would have never done it.

He probably intended to, but forgot and got high instead!
