Sungyon Kim : So, Blondino. Why you fuck me like this?
Tony Blundetto : Fuck you talking about? I got a whole leg coated with neosporin, I just spent an hour with the cops, explaining how it went down.
Sungyon Kim : I don't forget you professional criminal.
Tony Blundetto : Lemme ask you something. If I really wanted to rob you, you think I'd have to put up with *this* bullshit?
Sungyon Kim : Well just so you know.
[opens desk drawer revealing a gun]
Tony Blundetto : I didn't take your truck. I lost my study guide, my fucking flash cards. I'm sick of this fucking prejudice against ex-cons.
Sungyon Kim : I never hire you if I no need Tony Soprano for union! Not for him, I show you the fucking window!

Vito Spatafore : [helping him study for his massage license using flashcards] which muscles are attached to the Coracoid process?
Tony Blundetto : I fuckin know this, it's on the tip of my tongue
Christopher Moltisanti : [entering the room with Paulie, jokingly] oh, study hall again
Tony Blundetto : pectoralis minor and the coracobrachialis, and... .
Vito Spatafore : and? Come on, even I know this
Tony Blundetto : fine, what is it?
Vito Spatafore : biceps!
Tony Blundetto : [after checking his flashcards, then throws them on the table] fuck, I knew that: my mind's all over the place
Christopher Moltisanti : fear knocked on the door, faith answered, there was no one there
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri : [to Tony B] why do you wanna do this shit, so you can touch a bunch of strangers?
Vito Spatafore : [to Paulie] you really "skeeve" the human body, don't you?
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri : [to Vito] you like it so much? Let me ask you a question, why do pissin, shitin, and fuckin all happen within a two-inch radius?
Christopher Moltisanti : everybody asks that, Paulie, there's no answer for it
Vito Spatafore : their all "sources of pleasure" though
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri : get the fuck outta here!
Tony Blundetto : I know this shit and the next minute, it's gone
Christopher Moltisanti : I don't know how you do it working full time, if your parole officer is a "problem", give our guy Jimmy Curran a call: he's a supervisor
Tony Blundetto : it's not that, it's just all this pressure now that I got this "opportunity"
Tony Blundetto : [to Christopher after he looks confused] Sungyon Kim, my boss, his gonna back me on a whole storefront operation
Christopher Moltisanti : [before Tony B nods] Korean?
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri : if your lookin for money, why not come to me?
Tony Blundetto : this is "different", this "self-owned business" shit is like a religion to these people. Plus, the guy sees "something" in me. You know in some ways, the whole prison "thing" is not that different than being an immigrant
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri : [adamantly] word to the wise: remember Pearl Harbor!

Tony Blundetto : [after Kim calls Tony to his office] yeah?
Sungyon Kim : [in broken English, referring to Kim accusing Tony stealing his linen van] I give you hard time for my truck the other day, cops find two kids
Tony Blundetto : [sarcastically] feel free to apologize any time
Sungyon Kim : and when they investigate, could be a joyride but I think it's my cousin behind it in the Northside
Tony Blundetto : you know if they found my books?
Sungyon Kim : who knows?
Sungyon Kim : [gestures for Tony to sit down] you working hard for massage, yeah?
Tony Blundetto : the licensing test is pretty hard, a huge failure rate
Sungyon Kim : if you pass, what will you do with this?
Tony Blundetto : be a professional masseur
Sungyon Kim : you think of a massage business, you know, a small sauna?
Tony Blundetto : [nods] yeah, I could see it: four or five tables, soothing atmosphere, "pipe" in a little Keith Jarrett
Sungyon Kim : first thing I think of when I get stuck with you "Oh shit, God damn it, lazy American and criminal, no good for Kim, but you work for Kim, have a good future like Korean people
Tony Blundetto : I wouldn't say that
Sungyon Kim : I "stake" you in money for a storefront
Sungyon Kim : [when Tony smiles] I got a travel agency in a mini mall over at West Caldwell: shitty business with a fucking three-year lease. You know my daughter's very interested in massage, physical therapy, top of her class
Tony Blundetto : good for her, it's a tough nut to crack
