Joe Pantoliano: Ralph Cifaretto

Quotes 

• Tony Soprano : Twenty years I've been friends with John. Now he's gotta go.

  Christopher Moltisanti : All over a stupid joke.

  Ralph Cifaretto : [to Silvo, Christopher and Tony]  I was fuckin' around for chrissakes! You never made a joke about Ginny Sack?

  Tony Soprano : Of course not.

  Silvio Dante : No, never.

  Christopher Moltisanti : Not like that.

  Ralph Cifaretto : Yeah, well fuck him and his highfalutin bullshit. Who does he think he is, Sir Walter Raleigh?

  Tony Soprano : That's enough of you and your stupid fucking remarks! Go back to Miami and play volleyball, or whatever the fuck it is you do down there, while we clean up your fucking mess! Maybe, even keep your ass alive.

• Johnny Sack : Yeah?

  Ralph Cifaretto : John, it's me

  Johnny Sack : And?

  Ralph Cifaretto : And I'm calling to tell you how appalled I am. I just got back. I talked to Tony. I love Ginny, I would never say anything like that

  Johnny Sack : That's not what I heard

  Ralph Cifaretto : From who John?

  Johnny Sack : I don't betray confidences, you denying you said it?

  Ralph Cifaretto : Fuck yes, I'm denying I said it

  Johnny Sack : I don't believe you

  Ralph Cifaretto : Just tell me who said this. I'll put a bullet in their fuckin eye

  Johnny Sack : You're a real weasel you know that?

  Ralph Cifaretto : John please, look, last year when Tony and I had our "thing", that misunderstanding, you were "the voice of reason". You were the one that told me to apologize

  Johnny Sack : So, you're apologizing?

  Ralph Cifaretto : If that's what it takes

  Johnny Sack : Why would you apologize? I thought you didn't say it?

  Ralph Cifaretto : I didn't say it

  Johnny Sack : [Before hanging up]  you know something Ralph? Not only are you a thief, you're a lying fuckin prick. I should've let Tony chop your head off a year ago

• Ralph Cifaretto : [after returning from Miami, handing Tony a bag of oranges as a gift]  For you, Florida's finest

  Tony Soprano : Thanks, how's Donnie K?

  Ralph Cifaretto : I was just asking about that. I've got to get over there: get the full report

  Tony Soprano : Any idea who's writing the family gossip column?

  Ralph Cifaretto : You know funny about that Tone, I don't remember saying anything about Ginny

  Tony Soprano : Come on Ralph, I was sitting right there

  Ralph Cifaretto : Maybe I said something. I forget, there was a lot of wine that night

  Tony Soprano : What about the land deal? Freglinhuysen Avenue, you forget you told him that you, me, and Zellman made all that money?

  Ralph Cifaretto : Did I tell him about it? No but I sure as shit ended up paying for it. When you think about it, Johnny's got some balls, big house, and lining his pockets with our hard-earned cash? Who do you think is keeping that fat bitch eating Devil Dogs anyway?

  Tony Soprano : Whatever he is, his also Carmine's underboss so you're going to placate him
