How will Tony deal with new stresses, life-altering decisions at home, pressure from the law, and trouble on the job that leaves no one - no one - above suspicion?

Tension will mount between the New York and New Jersey families. Tony and the boys will get away for a while by heading to Atlantic City. However, Tony has a streak of bad luck and ends up having to borrow $200,000 from Hesh. In order to pay Hesh back, Tony sells Carmela's spec-house, which causes a big fight between the two. AJ gets dumped by Blanca during the Puerto Rican Day pride parade, afterwards going into a deep depression. Vito's widow approaches Tony about helping her troublemaking son. Kelli's dad is the catalyst that starts a new feud between Chris and Paulie. Bobby and Janice are living in Johnny Sack's old house and Tony gets mad when they don't keep it clean. AJ attempts suicide by drowning himself with weights in the family's pool, but Tony saves him in time. Uncle Junior, however, will also attempt suicide and will be successful. Meadow is arrested at a rally for illegal aliens and has to be bailed out of jail by Carmela. Paulie's brother makes an appearance. Phil finds out that Paulie has been skimming money on an asbestos-disposal job jointly run by the Soprano and Lupertazzi families. Already angry over the death of his brother, as well as one of his captains, Phil looks for someone to hit in New Jersey. He decides on Paulie's nephew, Little Paulie. However, the hit occurs after Little Paulie has picked up Paulie's mother/aunt and both are killed. This naturally sends Paulie into a rage and the New Jersey guys want revenge. Silvio demands answers but nobody in New York is in the mood for apologizing. After Phil turns down Tony's offer of compromise, Paulie is killed. New York also attemps to hit Tony, he survives, but his driver Perry is killed. Afterwards, Tony is picked up by the FBI, who play him a tape of Little Carmine being involved in the plan to hit him. They try to flip Tony but he refuses. As a result, Agent Harris has to go to "plan B." In one of his sessions with Dr. Melfi, Tony will have a major breakthrough. The second to the last episode, entitled "The Blue Comet," will run 80-90 minutes and be mostly in black and white. It will chronicle many of the main character's entrance into the mob. Tony contemplates a difficult choice given him by Carmela. Meadow is in a serious car accident. AJ inquires about going back to school. Both Chris and Meadow get offers from the west coast. Bobby is killed by New York while coming out of a hobby train store with his son. Silvio and Patsy are killed by New York outside the Bada Bing. The final episode, entitled "Going Home," will run 90-120 minutes and be directed by David Chase himself. The former beachhouse will act as a refuge for Tony and his family. Artie ponders a problem from his past. Benny shoots and kills Phil outside a gas station. While driving Tony in his Cadilac Escalade when he is high, Chris loses control of the car and they crash. Chris is severely hurt, gurgling blood, and Tony is forced to put him out of his misery by choking him to death. Afterwards, Tony breaks down and cries uncontrollably. There is a final scene between Tony and Dr. Melfi, having been added at the last minute during filming. The series comes full circle when some unexpected visitors show up at the Soprano household. The final scene takes place in an old fashioned icre cream soda shop.
* Fergie (Black Eyed Peas), Kevin Federline, Nancy Sinatra, and adult film star Gina Lynn will all make appearances in upcoming episodes. Drea De Matteo will appear again as Adriana in a dream Christopher has.

Just rewatched the first couple of episodes and picked up a great line from Tony that foreshadows the end. In the very first episode he is talking to Melfi and he is talking about his business. He says "Its great to be in on the ground floor, I missed that and I know. But somehow this feels like the end of it all rather than the beginning" Of course talking how even though he is just acheiving the top of this career the Mob is dead or almost dead. This implies that Tony will live at the end of the series however mabey its the Mafia itself that gets whacked.

I think you raised a really good point about Paulie being a liability in Tony's perception. However, as newsgrrl12 hinted your longshot prediction's not going to happen.
If you are implying that Tony is going to give Paulie to Phil as a 'sacrificial lamb', I really doubt it will ever happened. First off, there is the pride of the Family. Remember Vito? When Phil whacked him, it is a big slap to Tony's face and the DiMeo Family honor. Even though Tony agree Vito has to go (I know... he was hesitant to get rid of the 'gay disgrace' in his Family because of Vito's earning ability, Tony eventually gave the okay), it is not Phil's right to intervene as he is part of the Family. (Even if Phil is in the other family being cousin-in-law.) Unless Tony gave the contract to Phil, Phil disrespected the DiMeo Family.
Now, that is just the convention of Cosa Nostra. There is also Tony's pride. Remember how said Silvio said Tony's flaw (7 deadly sin) is his pride. Tony will never let some outsider to take out one of his closest and oldest friend. Another case in point is Tony B. Tony protected Tony B as much as he could even though Tony B took out a made guy and wounded a captain from one of the 5 Families. And you got to remember Tony B was not even a made guy. Imagine what he would do for Paulie who is his Underboss.
If you are implying that Tony is transfer Paulie to Phil's Family, that will also never happened. You got to remember the 5 Families see the NJ Family as 'farmers'. They don't respect the New Jersey Family. Remember Phil's comment to Johnny Sack after the sit down with Tony about the race track in Season 5. Johnny said: 'He is a boss, Phil' Phil replied: 'Jersey... C'mon, huh?' There are cases where guys from NY who couldn't get made in any of the 5 Families and went to NJ to get made, but not the other way around.
Of course, there are some exception. For example, if you are some super duper earner (I am talking about someone who can bring in millions of dollar for the Family) OR someone who is so respected/feared (big hitter... sorry Paulie is not really qualified on that one. Maybe Feech?) Obviously, you have to deemed justifiable for the NY Families to switch over. (i.e. no baggages/skeletons in the closet). Remember, there are so many connected guys and gangster wannabe in NY that the 5 Families have no uses for out-of-date Jersey 'farmer'. Thus, Paulie has no chance to scrub Phil's toilet.

Interesting thing the gambling problem that Tony has, I agree this could be One of the biggest problems.
I would like to see what will happen with the money laundering with the russians, Tony has way too much money in that business. Even with bad debt Tony is good for the Money but if he cant reach it then there will be trouble, And he will start taking money from the funds he has invested for Carmela and the family That will explode a major Family Issue.
Now Going bac to the Rosalie problem to come many people posted that Tony didn't order the Killing of JJr well may I argue that, Tony didnt order it But Chris told tony where he was and he told Ralphie he could have kept his mouth shut but he chose to tell him, and to go further The boss is accountable for the acts of his captains so make no mistake that killing will come back to haunt the Soprano Family.
Tony has some killings like that or who do you think told Phil where Vito was.
JJr was the son of the most respected Boss: Jackie Aprile.
Bobby has become a murderer so he will be the next reliable member of the gang.
Paulie will still be the same idiot he going nowhere.
Chris is the number 1 target of Phil but will get respect of everybody by killing the muslims, cleaver will be a disaster in revenue and he will no longer be part of that industry.

With all this infighting going on I think they're not doin a good job of teneding store, so me thinks that the stage is right for another crew to move in and take over. Anybody ever thought about AJ bringing in the Puerto Rican muscle, or the mid-easterners putting the squeze on?

Can Tony just give him away? I know Paulie once wanted to go to the NY crew, but that was in the Johnny Sac days... Would Paulie have any say in being cut loose?

Wow. Give him to Phil. Thats good thinking Door.
And the way Paulie was yammering away when all the guys were there - towards the end. Madon!

Since you guys were kinda on this topic, something has been bugging me and hopefully someone can help me out.
Where did Ralphie come from? Did he all of a sudden pop up in Season 3? What's his backstory? For the life of me, I can't remember. It just seemed that all of a sudden he was there and dating Ro.

Well, what about Bobby? Either Tony demoted him from capo to soldier, or it's a storyline blooper(my biggest problem with "Moe & Joe", btw).
Handing him over to another boss isn't exactly a firing...

I don't think Tony has yet decided what to do about Paulie. Judging by his comments to Beansie, he's become a liability. If he doesn't legitimize his income stream, he's in trouble. I think Tony got the point across about keeping his mouth shut, but what about his earnings? Like Sil once said, "you're only as good as your last envelope".
Longshot prediction: Tony will give him to Phil, to do as he pleases. He wants Paulie off his crew, methinks, and won't care whether Phil brings him aboard, whacks him, or has him clean his toilets. Tony must do something to keep Phil out of his hair about Tony B. JMO

Is it just me or do these last episodes don't even feel like last episodes. First 6B episode: vacation at some cottage. Next episode: Some movie premere in New York. Next episode: Paulie and Tony go down to Florida. What the fuck? While all these stand alone, side plot-lines? Theres what? 5 hours left of the show? And they are going to wrap this thing up decently in 5 hours? There is still no overlapping or continuous plot line this season. Its just as bunch of side stories. Man, I miss the first two seasons when all the episodes were gradually building up the something.....

I'd like to address the gambling just for a minute. I posted this in the Episode 80 forum, but this gets much more traffic.
What was the one piece of advice Tony's dad gave him?
"Never gamble."
He told him that after T saw Johnny Boy chop off the butcher's finger at Satriales. He told him that before the sight of meat cooking caused Tony's first panic attack. He told Tony that before Johnny some moves on a horny Livia -- probably the only time he saw his mother act like anything other than a shrew.
I wonder if the show's ultimate denoument will come from that scene -- which is unquestionably pivotal to the show, for the panic attacks are what led him to Melfi in the first place. Could it be that simple?
