1.
I'm
reminded of Louis the Whatever's finance minister. The something. He built the
château. Nicole and I saw it when we went to Paris. It even outshone Versales
[Versailles], where the king lived. In the end, Louis clapped him in the eye.
2.
So, huh?
This shit with Tony?/Total debacle. Pop's histestitory [?] doing anybody good, either./Anything you can
do, change your father's mind./I'm gonna try, John. I came all the way up here
for that./You put your sun block on?/So, as you know, dad, Tony Soprano came to
visit me recently. I bought him dinner, we talked./I'm not sure I like it he
did that end-run./He's an old-fashioned guy, pop. Very allegorical.
[constituting or containing allegory, a story, poem, or picture that can be
interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a Moral or Political one] I
don't think it was his intention to insult anybody./You're distracting me. I'm
taking a mulligan.
3.
Look at
this./ Both Miami and // where we had our honeymoon. Nicole said, Let's buy it./You
can just about smell the salt./You mean, the painting or the view?/Both./That's
called the trunk pail of the oil. Fool the eye. It was done by an artist right over
here in West-hamster. [West-hampton]
4.
The point
that I'm trying to illustrate is that, of course no one wants an all-out
conflict. But historically, historical changes come out of war. [unnecessary
adverb]
5.
The
fundamental question is, Will I be as effective as a boss like my dad was. And
I will be. Even more so. But until I am, it's gonna be hard to verify that I
think I'll be more effective. [Fallacy logical]
6.
You can't
stay ["]holed up["] here. It's not healthy, Carmine./How'd I get to
this? Retaliation, counter-attacks. What a fucking stagmire [quagmire].
7.
JT, I
gotta warn you. I'm very ["]hands on["]. And they're not the hard
way. I want to welcome all of you to the first meeting of possible investors on
this project. Some of you know, I have nine pictures under my subspecies.
[Taxonomic category that tanks below species, usually a fairly permanent geographically
isolated race. Subspecies are designated by a Latin trinomial.] Four in the
South Beach Trunket (?) series alone. Each with 30 000 plus DVDs in print. That
being said, I usually find it helpful to stage it into to include my
prospective clients to get your inputs, or notes, we call them.
8.
So
there's a script?/We want to surmise [suppose that something is true without
having evidence to confirm it] your interest, then tell the part to your
specifities [specifications]. No one plays tough, ruthless, hard-hearted prick
like you do.
9.
I won't
call it a sit-down because of inclement [(of the weather) unpleasantly cold or
wet] negative implications. Let's think of it as a meeting of minds. For
whatever reasons, certain incidents have expired [(of a document,
authorisation, or agreement) cease to be valid, typically after a fixed period
of time] lately in addition to being dangerous adverse impact on our respective
bottom lines.
10. If one thing my father taught me, it's this: A
pint of blood costs more than a gallon of gold. [A gallon of blood costs more
than a pint of gold.]
11. Welcome to the premier of [the movie] Cleaver.
The story of young man goes pieces, manages to find himself again. In all
seriousness, however, I'd like to say a few words. Much like a child, a film
has many parents. That is to say, many individuals who act like parents. Or that
by diversion [an instance of turning something aside from its course OR an
activity that diverts the mind from tedious or serious concerns; a recreation
or pastime], film is their baby.
12. Dad, that was neat at the end. Creepy figure in
the crucifix./Glad you caught that, Alexandra. Very observant. The sacred and
the propane [profane].
13. One night around then, I had this dream. It's
my pop's hundredth birthday even though he's been dead for years. The whole
family's there. Grand-kids, everybody. He's wearing one of those gold paper
crowns like a bourbon. Anyway, I give him this present. This mellifluous [(of a
voice or words) sweet or musical; pleasant to hear.] box. Ribbons.
14. So, the reason I'm here. You can probably
guess./What happened in Coco's restaurant./This alteration [altercation] you
had with him. You're at the precipice [a very steep rock face or cliff,
typically a tall one], Tony, of an enormous crossroad.
15. Wasn't that the meteor?/They're all meat
eaters./Meteor. Meteor.
16. My friends have abandoned me. I've been fucking
ostrified. [ostracised]
17. You know what they say. Revenge is like serving
cold cuts./I think it's, Revenge is dish served best cold./That's what I said.
18. She's an albacore [albatross, a source of frustration or guilt; an
encumbrance (in allusion to Coleridge's TheRimeOfTheAncientMariner)]] around my
neck.
19. I agree with that Senator Sanitorium. [Who?] He says, if we let this
stuff go too far, pretty soon we'll be fucking dogs.
20. A guy like that is going out with a woman, he could technically [wrong
word] not have penis-sary [penile, of, relating to, or affecting the penis]
contact with her Volvo. [vulva, the female external genitals]
21. There's no stigmata [stigma, a mark of disgrace associated with a
particular circumstance, quality, or person] connected with going to a shrink.
22. We're going to create a little dysentery [infection of the intestines
resulting in sever diarrhea with the presence of blood and mucus in the feces]
in the ranks.
23. You know, Sung Tizzoo. [Sun-tzu] The Chinese Prince Matchabelli
[Machiavelli].
24.
What with the passing of Vito Senior and all that entrails [plural noun, a
person or animal's intestines or internal organs, esp. when removed or
exposed.] [entails, involve something as a necessary or inevitable part or
consequence]
25.
I was prostate [devastated] with
grief.
26.
Luke Abrazzi sleeps with the
fishes./Luca Brasi. Luca Brasi.
27. World really went ["]down-hill["] after
the WorldTradeCenter [collapsed]. You know, Quasimodo [Nostradamus] predicted all of this./Who did what?/All
these problems, the Middle East. The end of the world./Nostradamus. Quasimodo's
the Hunchback of Notre Dame./Oh, right. Notredamus./Nostradamus
and Notre Dame. That's two different things completely./It's interesting,
though, they'd be so similar, isn't it? And I always thought, "Okay, Hunchback
of Notre Dame. You also got your quarterback and your halfback of Notre Dame"./One's
a fucking cathedral./Obviously, I know. I'm just saying. It's interesting, the
coincidence. What, you're gonna tell me you never pondered that? ["]The
back thing["] with Notre Dame?/No.

Number 1: it's "De something"...he is talking about a French guy....Louis the whatever's finance minister.
Where it says Pop and "histestitory" toward the beginning. What he is saying "his testa d'oro" or "testa dura" in a more southern twang is Italian for "head of gold." It's used to call someone hard-headed or stubborn
