The Sopranos
Spoken by Tony Soprano
“Those who want respect, give respect.”
controlled routes
Tony Soprano in The Sopranos’s “The Knight in White Satin Armor”: Tony penalizes Richie over cocaine dealing on garbage routes. Jackie Jr. appeals to his father’s legacy as a reason to respect Richie. Tony answers with reciprocity; Richie interprets the reply as a rebuke to both himself and his nephew. Claimed mutual respect is spoken from a position of authority. A garbage-truck queue is stopped by a striped barrier controlled from a dominant booth. The illustration interprets the exchange rather than recreating its literal staging.
