Who's going to take care of the goat now?

After 9 weeks of lead-in and set-up, something finally happened on The Sopranos last night. Boy, did something happen. (If you want to know what that something is, I can tell you in the comments so as not to spoil others) There are only 4 more episodes left to the season, so I expect there will be a lot of somethings happening in the weeks to come. Personally, I think this whole season is a set-up for the next and final season, at the end of which I think Tony will die. If David Chase sincerely intends for this story to have an ending, then I think Tony's death is the only resolution that remains true to the spirit of the show.
