Remember the dream sequence where Tony is at the shore looking through the binoculars and instead of the sea he sees he and Paulie playing cards and Tony shoots Paulie? If this spoiler is true, perhaps that dream was a harbinger of things to come. But why in the world would Paulie flip?

If true, like so many of us have conjectured, Tony loses both his families. Also, if so, what about a flashback scene a la GFII of the Sopranos in happier days?
