Either way, my point is that has a way of making him feel kind of empty and lost - that someone who wanted you dead for business now doesn't even remember he was a mobster.

It's a great show, it's just I'm not big on watching TV. I'll watch if it's on, and this one I figured I'd be sorry if I missed it, but usually I'd rather do other things.

Are you true fans ready to have your heads spun? Hope so...

Here are some things that definitely give meaning to to the final scene:

The guy at the bar is also credited as Nikki Leotardo. The same actor played him in the first part of season 6 during a brief sit down concerning the future of Vito. He is the nephew of Phil.

The trucker who sits at a table alone is the brother of the guy who was robbed by Christopher in Season 2. Remember the DVD players? The trucker had to identify the body.

There is a table full of boy scouts. These may be the same boy scouts present in the train store when Bobby was killed in the previous episode.

The two dark skinned guys in the restaurant lobby are the same ones who tried to kill Tony and only clipped him in the ear (Season 2 or 3).

In the previous episode Tony had a flashback where Bobby talks about how you don't even hear it when you get whacked. Most of the final scene is shown trough Tony's eyes. Since four people in the restaurant had reason to kill Tony, one interpretation of the awkward, sudden fade to black/mute is that Tony has been shot..."you don't even hear it."

Interesting... The flashback's been mentioned before - the rest has not.

Just finished this last night and to be honest I thought it was brilliant. There's no question Tony was clipped, and it was a lot more tasteful than seeing his brains blown out in front of his family. The most telling sign was the flashback to his conversation with Bobby, but I read some articles and it seems like everything in the entire episode leads up to Tony's death.
