it's about his ego. He cannot accept the fact that Tony is the real boss and he's only boss by name because the capos decided to make him the fall guy in case thing like this happen. In all reality though, Tony is the one running things Junior is just the face of the operation.
That’s the thing about it though-Jr wouldn’t have ratted, he would’ve held omertà, but his staying quiet didn’t have anything to do w refusing to rat-Jr. would’ve rather gone to jail as a boss than have to eat and admit someone else was in charge. It was about his pride, not protecting Tony
No - in fact he's not a rat. He's just someone who is PATHOLOGICALLY INSECURE and would rather fucking DIE than admit that his own nephew was the real boss - a position he waited for all his life! lol! He'd rather get a life sentence than let him taken away his "5 minutes of fame & glory"! :D ...you remember when the attorney asks him: (more or less) "If you admit, that you were just a "front" for Tony Soprano and the NY mob, we'll cut you a deal" - and he responds: "...THAT STRUNZ' RUNNING THINGS?? NEVER!"... That's the only reason why he's so "stand up"! :D :D
@@odeleon24 pshhh junior might not have been the best born natural leader. But he still gained all the knowledge over the years. Not everyone cares about having loved ones in their life. Junior had plenty of fast woman, money etc. and he outlived everyone from his generation and almost two generation after him. For what 10 years he got to sit back and chill.

all mafia have legitimate businesses. This way they can launder their money and keep the IRS off their backs. Tony Soprano was a executive with barone sanitation. Paulie was a union representitive as was Ralph and Patsey. Sil owned a strip club and a Meat market. The Aprile brothers owned a carpet and flooring company. Yes, they control the protection rackets, gambling, unions and loan sharking and prostitution but at the same time were legit business operators ass well. That was just being smart.

Kozzie Vercetti Come on man, he got old, got dementia. That's not "going insane", let's be respectful to our elders. He DID try and kill Tony though, but he was trying to do that when he HAD his wits about him so I wasn't surprised.
The way the US Attorney delivers his speach to Junior about not being the boss was excellent and Junior just staring ahead as if he was being told something deep down he already knew.
Amazingly subtle. The last thing Junior wants to do here is help Tony because he knows what he's just heard about the real power structure is true but Junior's pride saves Tony
Jr knew he never had the respect tony had even tonys dad his kid brother was more respected then jr ever was or will be that is why jr low key hated tony he knew he would never be like his brother and nephew
Yeah, I'm sure his primary motivation for not being a rat was his pride and Omerta, but there's something about his smile at the end that conveys that he is also happy to realize that this is a chance to do right by his nephew, whom he felt really guilty about trying to kill
He did love Tony but when he found out what was going on... He really had no choice but to save face. He never denied it or acted like it was anything else when confronted by Tony later which I respected. A lot of people would try to duck under something but Junior for all his pride was sharp and straight.
I always felt like he was more upset that Livia more or less duped him into trying to kill Tony. Yes, Junior had his reasons, but Livia is really the one that manipulated him to go through with it.
What? He was livid because he wasn't aware he was a puppet. Listen to his breathing, look at his eyes, that response was out of his own ego not pride in Tony.
"They represent the most crippling blow to all the New Jersey mob activities.." love how Tony walks over the screen when they say this.. so symbolic, displaying what the real power in NJ mob is. Nothing on Sopranos is ever random. Very clever show.
True. Ppl think it's his ego preventing him frm admitting that Tony was the boss. I disagree, he's really just an old school wiseguy who honored the oath tht he took.
As much as his ego played a part in his saying of that line, he ends up accepting that he's not 'street boss' and concedes by eventually joining Tony paying 95% of his proceedings, as well as an ally against Richie Aprille. Essentially Junior becomes Tony's vassal funnily enough.
@@chrisconway1357 judging by this scene he is just some irrelevant dude from Junior’s crew who he made underboss and who shortly after ended up in jail for a long time, so its no wonder we never hear of him. Mangano and Teresi on other hand are suppose to be bosses of 2 familes from NY, which is weird since Carmine was not mentioned even tho Sack is his underboss
Hardly. Christopher's intervention. Tony B getting his foot demolished by the car. The women screaming after the hit on Santoro. Tony dropping the stapler.
Junior would never give up tony. He talks a bunch of s*** throughout the series to other guys about Tony but in the end, Tony was a son to him. That's why it took dementia for the man to cross him.
In the end, Tony relied heavily on Junior's advice and guidance to keep the Family afloat. Junior, to some degree, was actually the one running things.
@@DanJuega Junior had real power. He substantially altered many of Tony's decisions, and used his position of authority in Tony's organization to negotiate for better cuts and curry favor. At the end of the day, he was brought in for quite a few significant decisions (including showing face to Carmine Lupertazi during disputes). He had real power, despite being sidelined.

I love season 1 because a) it's just so fucking Jersey. And b) Junior Soprano is still a mobster in solid standing. Has a crew for crying out loud. Starting with season 2 he's basically shelved and then in later seasons he develops dementia.
He was still allowed some influence over his former crew though, such as deciding who is the capo. We saw that when he promoted Bobby in season 4 (I think it was)
Exactly, I wish we had another season where it was more like season 1. More backstory. More time with Jackie Sr and Junior as a gangster so we can see more of Tony as a Capo and not the acting boss yet. Before everything went haywire. So if there was 1 other season before season 1 that would be perfect.
He would rather die in jail than admit tony is the real boss
Pride might have been part of it, but it was mostly just that he wasn't a rat, even if he despised Tony.
WheresWallace4883 Italians are known for our pride lol
It was 70% hes not a rat 30% was him and his pride not wanting to admite that he simply was joey jerkoff and never the Boss

lol, he told you to take a fuckin' Midol!
I love season 1 because a) it's just so fucking Jersey. And b) Junior Soprano is still a mobster in solid standing. Has a crew for crying out loud. Starting with season 2 he's basically shelved and then in later seasons he develops dementia.
He was still allowed some influence over his former crew though, such as deciding who is the capo. We saw that when he promoted Bobby in season 4 (I think it was)
Exactly, I wish we had another season where it was more like season 1. More backstory. More time with Jackie Sr and Junior as a gangster so we can see more of Tony as a Capo and not the acting boss yet. Before everything went haywire. So if there was 1 other season before season 1 that would be perfect.
When they brought up Mikey fleeing, Tony said "lucky him" lol
Mikey's wife should have said while sobbing "he told me to get Chucky on the phone, then he called me a hoe and that I should take a Midol"
