Quotes
-
Richie Aprile : This country's going through boom times, there's more fucking garbage than there ever was.
-
Tony Soprano : [Meeting to discuss which garbage routes belong to whom] so that's it: Albert splits Nutley with Delesio Brothers and Barone here keeps everything north of Patterson, what else do we have to talk about?
Dick Barone : Fairfield Township is taking bids next week
Richie Aprile : What's there to talk about? Fairfield's mine
Tony Soprano : Was yours. I don't give bids to the "handicapped", your fuckin deaf because I told you ten times then I find out your still dealing blow on those garbage routes
Richie Aprile : [Confused] For that I'm losing a fuckin bid?
Tony Soprano : Next time you'll find yourself in the back of one of your trucks
Jackie Aprile Jr. : Those are my father's garbage routes
Albert Barese : Actually fellas, my cousin Larry wants the Fairfield contract, since he was family and what not, while his in jail awaiting trial
Tony Soprano : See? This is why we have a fixed bid club because everybody has a story on why they should move to the front of the line
Richie Aprile : I've been in line for ten fuckin years
Jackie Aprile Jr. : My uncle is just asking for what my father would've given him if he was boss when Richie was getting out of prison and it had nothing to do with that they were brothers: you respecting my father you should respect Richie
Tony Soprano : Those who want respect, give respect
Richie Aprile : [to Jackie Jr] See? He just told you to shut the fuck up and he told me to go fuck myself
-
Junior Soprano : So?
Richie Aprile : Larry's out
Junior Soprano : Oh shit, fuck! I knew it
Richie Aprile : Larry and Albert are not the problem. It's Tony that's the fuckin problem: we take him out, believe me, everybody's gonna come along, where else are they gonna go? And fuckin Larry Barese too, I got friends in federal holding that would like nothing better than taking that weak fuck out
Jackie Aprile Jr. : He was a great friend to my father but he don't care who he follows now, I'd do him myself
Junior Soprano : [ignoring Jackie Jr., sarcastically] Who's that speaking in here? Is somebody speaking?
Junior Soprano : [to Richie] Let me think about this for a while: we can't be too fucked up by this setback, we gotta screw our courage to the post
Junior Soprano : [after hugging him] You're a good boy
-
Richie Aprile : [to Janice after he punched her] Oh what, you gonna cry now?
-
Janice Soprano : [while talking about planning their wedding and cooking in the kitchen] oh, the planner checked the almanac and said there's sixty-five historical chance of rain on the twelfth so he wanted to book the tenth as a back up so what'd you think?
Richie Aprile : I can't decide on this shit right now
Richie Aprile : [Seeing her disappointed] Janice, come on
Janice Soprano : Ok but when you start bitching when you see the bill: don't
Richie Aprile : My kid "hit" me up five grand to go to England for these dance contests
Janice Soprano : Yeah but "little Rick" is still coming to the wedding right?
Richie Aprile : [Correcting her, irritated] Rick? Richard, how many fuckin times I've got to tell you? It was "little Ricky" when he was twelve years old.
Janice Soprano : Jesus alright. His still coming right?
Richie Aprile : He wouldn't miss an opportunity to fox trot and tango in front of everybody
Janice Soprano : Ballroom dancing is a legitimate art form
Richie Aprile : [Eventually referring to Jackie April Jr] Carries my name: Richard. His a fuckin disgrace. Why wouldn't he be like Jackie? Why couldn't I have a son like that?
Janice Soprano : [Referring to her mother] you know, you came home with a fuckin attitude today. You know I've been in this house cooking your fuckin dinner and taking care of that "black hole" up stairs all day
Richie Aprile : Keep your voice down, she hears everything
Janice Soprano : Not tonight, I gave her two Nembutals because I thought we might want to have sex? But not likely
Richie Aprile : Put my fuckin dinner on the table and keep your mouth shut
Janice Soprano : Oh you shut up, just because his a ball room dancer, you think your son is gay? What if he was gay? What difference does it make?
Richie Aprile : [after punching her for insulting his values] what're you looking at? Are you going to cry now?
Richie Aprile : [after Janice leaves and returns with a gun pointing at him, before she shoots her a first time, assuming Janice is playing a joke] get the fuck out of here! I'm in no mood for your...

Junior Soprano : and did my nephew say where I'm "allowed" to move the coke?
Richie Aprile : he don't give a shit about nobody but himself: this country is going through "boom times", there's more fuckin garbage than there ever was and he wouldn't let me eat
Junior Soprano : you want to cry money problems? I'm facing twenty years, I could die in there
Bobby 'Bacala' Baccalieri : your gonna beat it Skip
Junior Soprano : [raises his voice to Bobby] you don't fuckin know that
Junior Soprano : [to Richie] that coke is my lifeline right now
Richie Aprile : break it down: what choice does he leave us?
Junior Soprano : [referring to killing Tony] you need allies to do what you're thinking about
Richie Aprile : Albert Barese didn't like what he was hearing and by extension, Larry Barese: the biggest fuckin crew in the family
Junior Soprano : that doesn't surprise me: Larry has had just as much time as me to think about why his under indictment and some other people "ain't"
Richie Aprile : what do you want me to do?
Junior Soprano : go talk to Ally boy "feel" him out but his a "slippery" fuck... don't " commit"
Richie Aprile : [to Bobby and Junior before leaving] I'll see ya

Richie Aprile : [giving a toast at his engagement party to Janice] everybody, I want to thank my future in-laws for throwing me this party and I want to thank you all for coming and celebrating this historical union: the Apriles and the Sopranos. They say "It's never too late" and "All those good comes to those who wait", their right on both counts
