I Immediately thought of "From Where To Eternity" where the roles were reversed and it was Tony watching Christopher.

Will Christopher decide it's time to leave this life behind? He's Lost Ade already. His mom was threatned by Phil last season.
Of course just deciding to leave is not that easy. Look how it worked out For Eugene.

But Furio managed to flee.

After this everyone has got to realize that anything like this can happen to anyone at anytime. How many more hospital stays and funerals can they go to?

My guess is that after this Tony decides to try and make a break. He's come too close to death over the years.

I can't imagine Chris ever leaving this life. Ever since episode 1 it's been his dream to be a 'wiseguy'. He's already come this far (captain), he won't turn back now.

I seriously don't see Chris or Tony leaving the life. No way, no how.

Does anyone see this going the route of the godfather, "in five years this family will be completely legitimate," and then just will continue to be the same?

</p>

Yeah that scene kind of got to me with the way Chris looking on to Tony. Just looked like he was thinking about everything that has happened to him.

i thought the same thing when I saw that scene, gotta love the irony
