I agree with you Mary Cas, Tony does have a soft side which is evident by the way he "sometimes" treats Carmella and his children. As twisted as he may be, I do think he loves his wife and children.

Capo, yes, I think it would be interesting for some kind of conflict to arise where Tony may have to choose between his family and his "real" family. It probably would really mess up his mind, but could be an interesting storyline.

As far as next season goes, I predict that he and Carmella will get back together, but not without some kind of change or promise to change. Perhaps knowing about Furio will make Tony realize that Carmella can play the same game as him, which will force him to examine his own lifestyle.
