Eggs on The Sopranos - 01/18/15 07:07 AM
I know everybody here has heard of this but regardless, it should make an interesting thread. I copied this off another site.
Eggs foreshadow something unfortunate will occur, generally a loss of life, loss of rationality, or both. A similar foreshadowing occurs in The Godfather film series whenever oranges appear on screen.
1) "Long Term Parking", Adriana offers to make Christopher eggs after admitting she has been working with the FBI. She is killed shortly after.
2) In "Watching Too Much Television" Irina offers to make egg salad before Tony beats Zellman with a belt.
3) In "Whoever Did This" Ralph offers to make Tony eggs for breakfast just before they fight and Tony murders him.
4) In "Two Tonys" Carmine Lupertazzi suffers a stroke when eating egg salad; later, Uncle Junior asks Bobby to make Tony an egg, then calls Tony B. "Tony Egg" by mistake, right before the phone rings and it is announced that Carmine has died.
5) Tony Soprano's goomah, Valentina, has her kimono catch on fire from the stove while preparing egg substitutes for Tony in "The Test Dream".
6) Finally, Tony Soprano steps in broken eggs just before resolving to murder his cousin, Tony Blundetto in "All Due Respect".
7) Richie Aprile offers to make Tony eggs when Tony finds him sleeping in Janice's house. He is shot by Janice a few episodes after that.
8) AJ offers Carmela a poorly made poached egg in the episode "College", later Tony kills Fabian Petrullio.
9) Before Mikey Palmice is killed in "I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano", Carmela is seen making scrambled eggs.
10) In "The Weight", while Junior and Tony are discussing ordering a hit on Johnny Sack they watch an episode of Who Wants To Be A Millionare where the contestant has used up all his lifelines and gets an answer wrong - the answer, "eggs."
