That's a pretty powerful scene.

I guess that is a flashback because Pussy is already dead by 3rd season?

It is a deleted scene from season 3, "To Save Us All From Satan's Power". It shows how the Feds flipped Pussy. Very good acting from Vincent Pastore. I wished they would've kept it in there.

One thing I never understood about Pussy flipping when it took place. In the 2nd season? Or in 1994? I just thought 94 because when Tony has those flashbacks about him in the episode "To save us all from satans power", he thinks the feds got him back in 95 or whatever. I dont know, this is just on my mind

That's pretty damn cool. I wish they would have kept that in the show.

Link is completely non Sopranos related for me

Try this one. The original link changes everyday.

Deleted Scene

Many thanks!

Thought it must have done.

I agree that should of been kept in, it does explain a lot more about why he flipped, but on the other hand i would hate to see what they would of left out, just to fit it in. so to speak.

That's the thing: they didn't HAVE to cut anything to include that scene! That episode "To Save Us All From Satan's Power" is perhaps the SHORTEST episode this series has ever had. It clocks in under 50 minutes, when most episodes are usually almost 60 minutes long.

Length of episode was not an issue in the decision to cut the "Pussy flips" scene out.

If you look at the closing credits of that episode, you see that the actors for Agents Harris and Cubitoso are given credit, yet they don't appear in the episode at all!

This implies to me that the decision to cut out the "Pussy flips" scene was a last-minute thing right before the episode aired. And the decision to do so was a creative issue, not about episode length.

Thats a good scene, thanks for the link.

Ah, there you go: it WAS a creative issue, not an issue of episode length.
I'm not so sure I agree with him about it slowing down the narrative of the episode, though.

just the way i figured it to go, thanks for the link
