The wait is over. This Sunday night, the
most anticipated
event in the history of time. A TV program that puts nature’s greatest wonders to shame. The season premiere of ‘The Sopranos.’ It’s been almost 15 months since the last episode. Are you ready? EXT. SUBURBAN NEW JERSEY HOME – DAY INT. KITCHEN – DAY TONY (played by Darrell Hammond), dressed in an undershirt and open bathrobe, enters the kitchen, where CARMELA (played by Amy Poehler) is fixing breakfast. TONY
Carm, got any of that leftover
pasta fagioli?
CARMELA
Get it yourself, Tony. I’m not
your maid.
TONY
Whoa, with the hostility! What
I’d do?
CARMELA
(angrily) You know damn well what you did.
TONY
(loudly) Well, tell me already!
CARMELA
(yelling) All right, I will. I’ll tell you
exactly what you did!
TONY
What?
CARMELA
(looking confused) You, ah, oh God, it’s been so
long I can’t even really
remember, you know. Do you remember, Tone? TONY
Nah, I can’t, maybe...I can’t.

“The Sopranos.” For the first
time since December 2002.
INT. KITCHEN – DAY TONY
I know I moved into the garage,
but wasn’t there a
beach house? Something like that? FURIO (played by Seth Meyers) enters. FURIO
Hey, ah, Tony. I’m here to pick
ya up.
TONY
Furio, do you remember ever
driving me to a beach house?
FURIO
Ah, I don’t think so.
CARMELA
Furio, aren’t you supposed to be
in Italy?
FURIO
Oh. Snap.
Furio quickly exits. MUSIC. THE SOPRANOS THEME. SHOW TITLE. VOICEOVER All your favorite characters are
back. Tony, Dr. Melfi,
the guy who married the fat lady, and the fat lady. INT. KITCHEN - DAY RALPHIE (played by Will Forte) and JANICE (played by Horatio Sanz) are standing on the other side of the island counter. CARMELA
OK, so we’re all agreed,
Ralphie’s horse burned down
the beach house. TONY
Wait a second. Ralphie’s dead.
RALPHIE
I am?
TONY
Yeah, don’t you remember? My
sister Janice killed you
with the bowling ball. JANICE
No, I killed my other boyfriend. (playfully) But I did put
something up Ralphie’s bee-hind. ALL
(laughing and speaking over each other) Oh, yeah…that’s right, I remember
that.
STEVE VAN ZANDT (played by Jimmy Fallon), dressed as himself and not SILVIO, and another member of The E Street Band CLARENCE CLEMMONS (played by Kenan Thompson), enter the kitchen, as STEVE slides up and down, swaying against TONY’s back, looking as though he’s jamming onstage. STEVE
Hey Tony, mon ami. Hey, we gonna
get to work? Hey we gonna
whack a guy or something. Gonna whack a guy, huh? TONY
(laughing) What are you wearing?
STEVE
Well, hey man. Look, I’ve been on
tour with Springsteen. I
thought the show had been canceled. I dunno. I gotta be honest, I don’t even remember what my character’s name is. CARMELA
Who is that?
STEVE
Clarence Clemmons.
CLARENCE
How do? Hey, is that pasta
fagioli (pronounced exactly
as spelled, instead of correctly)? MUSIC. THE SOPRANOS THEME. SHOW TITLE. VOICEOVER
“The Sopranos.” The show everyone
is talking about, because
they’re trying to remember what happened last season. INT. KITCHEN - DAY TONY and CARMELA are watching TV by the counter. TONY
Okay, so we watched like eight
episodes from last season and
all I can figure out is Adriana was working for the FBI. Now, Paulie, what happened in the next one? It’s not that one, that turbo one with Jon Favreau, is it? Cut to PAULIE (played by Colin Firth), who has joined RALPHIE, JANICE, CLARENCE and STEVE on the opposite side of the counter. PAULIE
(reading Sopranos video back) Naw, Tone. This one’s when Silvio
and Ralphie’s trying to
stop a protest at the Columbus Day parade. Oh, I remember. The one with the Indians and, as I recall, that was a stinker too. Let’s just skip it and watch the one where Ralphie gets it in the keister again! Everyone laughs and agrees with Paulie. Over the din, Ralphie’s embarrassed protest “Come on guys.” MUSIC.
