>Hey Tony, remember that girl Danielle I brought to dinner? She’s an undercover fed. She tricked me, and now they have me on drug charges. They wanted me to rat, I said no. Can you help me find a lawyer?
Literally all she had to do.

>Sure, sweetie, don’t worry about it
>*shoots her in the back*

>Hey, Mob Boss, I brought an undercover cop to your business and am currently facing charges myself they want me to rat on you for in order to get out from under. Please don't kill me, okay?
Fucking retard

>>212012688 (OP)
>this guy clearly doesn't love or respect me at all and is never gonna change for the better I should just skedaddle outta here on the first bus available
Literally all she had to do.

>>212012794
Her coming to him in good faith and not trying to hide it would have saved her ass. Even Tony knew she was an easily manipulated ditz. You’re the retard.

>>212012688 (OP)
>I'll give you everything feds just protect me
All she had to do

>>212012935
Tony killed his own best friend Puss when he found out he was a rat, he wasn't about to let some waitress live after the fact even if she came clean about it (there'd be no fucking incentive to, Tony didn't even care about her).

How do you not realize that being compromised by the Feds in any way is a death sentence in this universe, are you genuinely fucking retarded?

>>212012688 (OP)
the whole point was that she was too fancy to handle prison, she was too entitled to handle decades of eating grilled cheese off the radiator like the men

I'm not saying that Adriana was anywhere near meeting this benchmark but the mob definitely doesn't kill everyone who "might" flip to avoid jail time, if anything they hold the highest respect for the guys who get prosecuted, convicted and spend years in the can instead of just executing them the day they're indicted to make sure they never change their mind and talk

>>212013031
pussy was actively snitching

>>212013031
Apples and bowling balls anon. Puss was working with the feds for a long time at that point, and Tony found out. Ade coming forward before they could get anything out of her would be a completely different situation. She owned a front business for them, but wasn’t privy to anything actually damaging. Plus Tony liked her and said as much, and knew she was a good fiancé for Chris. She was worth not getting clipped, and her coming forward would have only demonstrated her loyalty in his eyes.

>>212013483
Tony was a dead-eyed sociopath beneath his charismatic facade and the idea he'd have let Adriana live when she could threaten to put him in prison for life is utterly fanciful. I hate the term "media literacy" but in this case you are truly lacking in it.

How does telling Tony save her from going to prison?

>>212013483
>She owned a front business for them

If that’s true the entire plotline is predicated on the plot hole that the feds didn’t just RICO everyone the instant they had something on Adriana.

>>212013084
By that logic they should have clipped Tony after he got arrested for those stolen airline tickets. Hell they could have clipped junior at any time during his house arrest, lest he decide to change his mind and cooperate.

>>212012688 (OP)
All she had to do was serve the 5 years which would definitely got reduced to 3 while she served. She is just really low IQ and she’s with someone just as stupid. They wouldn’t have killed her if she rode it out and Chris would definitely take her back

adriana reincarnated as the cat

>>212013600
It wouldn’t necessarily, but a good mob lawyer could easily ensure a reduced sentence, since she was a first time offender. The point is, it could save her life, and her primary concern was protecting Christopher anyway.
>>212013582
Don’t act like Tony’s sociopathy didn’t vary greatly depending on the circumstances/season. Depending on the person he was dealing with, he could be far more merciful than at other times.

>>212013696
her character was written so that prison was never an option, she was too entitled and well-off
and no way Chris waits for her, he's fucking another bimbo while she changes into her orange jumper

>>212013908
>but a good mob lawyer could easily ensure a reduced sentence,

Easily, with early 2000s mandatory minimums? To what, how reduced?

>>212013908
>Depending on the person he was dealing with, he could be far more merciful than at other times.
not when it came to rats. in fact that's probably one of the few things he's consistent and unwavering on. absolutely no mercy with them.

>>212013715
what did Christopher get reincarnated as?

>>212014790
A natural canopy

>>212012688 (OP)
Seeing her face start to get all wrinkly in season 4 really upset me.

She was really fucking hot in season one. When Cwissy gets out of the hospital with the neckbrace before the fine BrANden in the bathtub.

>>212012688 (OP)
Wow, almost like Adriana was a flawed character whose naivety and poor judgement would be her undoing when she decided to attach herself to an unstable drug addict that was in the mafia

>>212013483
>demonstrated loyalty
and then what? Hes gonna keep her around to tidy up the office? She's a liability and letting her stay with Christopher, one of his closest associates and a volatile dipshit himself, only increases that liability

>>212014790
He went straight to hell for being a largely unrepentant sinner. Murder, adultery, thievery, indolence, you name it

>>212013483
You mean loylety

>>212012935
>Even Tony knew she was an easily manipulated ditz.
This is exactly why Tony would have her clipped.

>>212016230
I feel bad for Silvio having to carry out this hit but if it'd been anyone else, there would have been too much emotional baggage in the way.

>>212016230
Great plan, fill her with a tablespoon of your DNA before killing her

>>212016230
silvio is probably one of the most cold-blooded in the series. never gave a single iota of a fuck for whom he had to take out. but that could also be because of van zandt's somewhat wooden acting since he never did it before

>>212014790
as dirt who cares... therse several instances in the show where adriana is acting or dressing in a way that is cat like

>>212013582
Tony was a psychopath not a sociopath. If you watched the whole series and read up before posting you'd know this.

>>212013696
>>212014020
No, she knew Chris couldn't live or survive without her, that is what she killed her. He was a recovering addict and he was deeply in love with her. He would have overdosed within six months or gotten reckless. Never would have cheated on her. Conjugal visits

>>212014790
Hes at an Irish bar and its st paddys day

>>212014790
an israeli

>>212014684
But that’s my whole point, if she came to him before they get her to say anything, she’s not a rat

He would have fucked her and then have someone kill her

>>212012688 (OP)
>Tony im in trouble can you help me?
>yeah, Silvio will take you to get some help. in da woods.

>>212018242
Jej

>>212012688 (OP)
They had nothing on her. She could have went to Carmella. Have it be on her conscience

>>212012935
They are mostly sociopaths same as cops, so whatever will be the least amount of risk to him will decide what he does. If killing you is less risky than getting you an attorney and trusting you won't change your mind, then yeah he'd just kill you. But killing someone has tremendous risks, so he'd probably prefer to work with you rather than kill you.

>>212018547
she's a stupid person, she was with Chris lol

>>212012688 (OP)
No way. You even exchange words with a Fed, maybe even you just told them to fuck off, and they still kill you. The risk is just too high with little upside.

>>212018965
>Feds are watching this person so I better commit a crime that carries a life sentence
Movies and shows have them killing way more than they actually do, because murder adds drama. In real life the cartels now handle all the heavy shit and what's left of the Italian mafia are basically no different from Indian scammers. No non-black is going to kill you over a crime that only carries a few years in prison.

>>212012688 (OP)
"What character should have been doing in my hypothetical and subjective opinion" is the lowest form of conversation

>what about the murder in our clean mafia hangout where we discuss business in the back?
>how long have you been hanging out with this woman who’s specifically afrer me and my underlings, including your fiancé?
>how long have you been hanging out with this woman who approached you outta the blue at the mall?
There’s no way someone as cautious as Tony would let that chatty bimbo live.

>>212016384
Would have been pure kino with Paulie.
>blabbermouth cunt, he he he....hey Ton' d'ya hear what I said, called her a blabbermouth cunt he he he.

Is anons are more creative than Spielberg

>>212019416
What about Israelis?

>>212018965
>>212019416
Tony was literally meeting with Feds to discuss 9/11 shit and his court case, goddamn

>>212012688 (OP)
>>212012935
The smart move is to go through Carmella, that way if something happens to her, Tony is going to have a lot to answer for at home.

>>212012688 (OP)
>telling Tony anything and expecting to live
I agree she should've lawyered up and kept her mouth shut

In Aids defense how come Chris never told her someday the cops could arrest her or chat her up and the only thing she needs to do is shut the fuck up contact someone in the family, and wait for the lawyer we send you. Her uncle was Richie Aprilie how did she not know basic mob protocol? The godfather and good fellas both exist in the soprano universe. Take the pinch!

>>212023272
It's because they weren't married.

You have to be married to become part of the family, to be protected according to the mob code. Ultimately, she was just his long-term girlfriend, so she had never had "the talk" with all of the wives. And yes, she is portrayed as being really, really stupid.

>>212012688 (OP)
she was dumb as a box of rocks, her only saving grace was she could fuck

>>212023272
>how did she not know mob protocol
she was operating under the assumption that lots of dead mobsters were merely in witness protection. Adrianna was not particularly bright

>>212012688 (OP)
>if they had you on drug charges and you refused to wear a wire why did they release you with no charges? why did they allow you to keep working and living your life while only having an undercover hang around for a couple weeks?
by that point it was already way too late.

>>212013031
Tony had a soft spot for beautiful women in retrospect it’s worth trying

Don't they talk about it in the show?

Don't the Feds specifically say Adrianna is a good target because she's not married? There's a law about testifying against your own spouse or whatever but I don't think it applies to girlfriends

That is probably why Adrianna felt her position was so precarious. She wasn't married, she did not enjoy that assumption of "she can't testify against us" which is extended to most mob guys' wives

>>212013015
But what sensitive information does she have access to? I'm surprised the feds went after her at all, what did they expect to get?

>>212023424
I meant the mafia family. She had blood relatives and all her friends were the mob wives so they trusted her. She had an arc where she was horny to marry Chris specifically so she couldn’t testify against Chris for doing mobs shit.

>>212023496
>she was dumb as a box of rocks, her only saving grace was she could fuck
The perfect woman...
Unless you're in the mafia, then terrible, but otherwise perfect

>>212013084
>How do you not realize that being compromised by the Feds in any way is a death sentence in this universe
You sure about that?
