Jackie robbing the card game.

Silvio says that Jackie shot at 2 made guys,but there were 4 of them there- Gene, Christopher, Albert and Furio. So two of them probably didn't have the makings of a varsity made guy.

What’s with all the fucking accounting over here?!?!

Silvio was most likely repeating what Chris had said. Chris's words to Tony, with "he" being Jackie Jr.: "He took a shot at me. He tried to kill Furio. We're made!"

Is it that Jackie Jr. only actually shot at 2 made men and not the other 2? Furio got shot. Did Chris dodge a bullet?

It’s that Silvio wasn’t there, doesn’t know exactly what happened and isn’t speaking precisely (as most of these guys don’t) - and it makes No difference whether it’s one, two or howevamany made guys

Chris didn’t get hit, no.

He did, however, nail an epically satisfying headshot in the line of fire, much like when he clocked Sean in the car when they did the spec job. Chris was always cool in those situations.

Even when they went up against the V-V-Vipers, Chrissy nailed one in the body from the passenger window of a fleeing car. It always hurt to see him fuck up so much when his shooting was second to none.

Not hit, shot at. Did Jackie shoot at Chris but miss?

By the time Chris told the story, he was dodging bullets like in the Matrix!

Was Furio made in American Cosa Nostra?

u/Oso_the-Bear 1d ago

Furio seems to have his own special honorary status from the other side, not coming up through the standard heirarcy "on the books" with NY

I don't really know Albert's status at this point in the timeline; he speaks for Larry, but heck, glasses guy even could speak for John in a pinch. If he wasn't already made when Larry went away; no one else was made recently except Chris and Gene. We can assume Albert is made by the time he's in the room for "died on the vine." But that was much later.

He's acting capo when Larry is in prison, he's absolutely made the whole time we know him. Why would Richie Aprile be asking for support in a coup from an associate

John Gotti wasn’t a made guy before the McBratny murder but was still running a crew.afyer he did time for the murder, he got made and immediately was bumped up to a captain. So it can happen

I think if you switch families you keep your made status like I think Albert kid blast Gallo.

We just watched this one on a re-watch. I swear, every day someone makes a post about one we just saw; almost like it was running in realtime and it aired last night. Does anyone else experience this?

u/Ijustthinkthatyeah 1d ago

Jackie didn’t shoot at Albert or Gene.

2

u/qui3tdesperation 1d ago

Albert is in the same corner with Furio and Jackie is blasting away, hitting Furio, so basically shooting at them both. He's also shooting back at Christopher and one scene after his shooting goes directly to Gene, so it could be, also he's shooting behind his back when running out, so it's also kinda aimed at everyone.  Anyway Sunshine is to blame, fat fuck shouldn't yap like 6 barbers

u/spikenzelda 16h ago

Let me explain it again OP. But different.

Jackie has 4 made apples. He shoots at 2. How many made apples were shot at?

u/qui3tdesperation 15h ago

Snakes were fucking themselves long before Adam and Eve and apples came round.

Sounds like you knew you shouldn’t post this, but you just decided to post it before the crank wore off. Discontinue the lithium, pal.
