Amy understands fiction, and she has done a good job of breaking down last night's final episode of The Sopranos. She dismisses Kathryn Lopez's explanation (to wit, "We see everything through Tony's eyes; he got whacked at the end; that's why everything went black"). I love that explanation, but it falls short for a variety of reasons. For starters, the entire show isn't shot from Tony's perspective; if it were, we'd never see Tony's face and we wouldn't see any scenes where he isn't present (I'm being a little sarcastic and narrowly literal, but it's simply not true that the whole show is from Tony's perspective). Another reason: not enough time elapsed between the door jingle and the alleged whack, if the whacker came in through the front door.
