Analysis |
| |
The episode contains several instances of foreshadowing of Salvatore "Big Pussy" Bonpensiero's murder. While dreaming, Tony sees Pussy as a fish, a hint that he would soon be "sleeping with the fishes" as he does after Tony, Silvio, and Paulie toss him into the ocean. Throughout the episode, a creaking sound can be heard every time Tony dreams. This same sound is later heard on the boat when Tony, Silvio, and Paulie murder Pussy.
