Phil Leotardo: We're friends of your son, from Alcoholics Anonymous. Joanne Moltisanti: What's your name? Phil Leotardo: We're anonymous. ... Silvio Dante: Ton look, I've been your consigliere for a lot of years... Tony Soprano: Don't go through a fuckin' preamble, just tell me what's on your mind. Silvio Dante: You got some unhappy people out there. Tony Soprano: No shit. Silvio Dante: Not just the young guys. Talkin' about the guys that've been with you since the beginning. Before the beginning. Guys who worked for your father. Tony Soprano: Fuckin' Paulie, right? Silvio Dante: Nah, I'm not saying nothing. Tony Soprano: Goddamn him. Silvio Dante: These guys, would do whatever you ordered. Tony Soprano: Except in this case. Silvio Dante: Don't say it like that. Tony Soprano: Forget that Tony Blundetto's my cousin. I give him up, we can give the whole fuckin' thing up! Silvio Dante: Here's where the conversation gets difficult. Tony Soprano: Go. Silvio Dante: All due respect. You were ready to hand him your cousin a week ago. It's not about standing with the guys or upholding some rules. Not really. Tony Soprano: Then what's it all about? Why don't you illuminate me? Silvio Dante: It's about you don't wanna eat shit from John. You don't wanna bow down. You told him to go fuck himself. Which, to be honest, wasn't exactly appropriate, considering. Tony Soprano: Oh, is that right? Silvio Dante: All due respect. Tony Soprano: What the fuck do you know what goes on in my head? Silvio Dante: I've known you since you were a kid, Ton. Frankly, you got a problem with authority. This attitude of yours, it's a lot of what's made you an effective leader. But we all got flaws. Even you. Seven deadly sins and yours is pride. Tony Soprano: All due respect. You got no fuckin' idea what it's like to be number one. Every decision you make affects every facet of every other fuckin' thing. It's too much to deal with almost. And in the end, you're completely alone with it all.
The Sopranos, All Due Respect
