The Second Coming

This location is featured in the episode "The Second Coming" (S06E19). By this point in the series, relations between the New Jersey and New York families are heavily strained, making war increasingly likely.

After Tony Soprano severely beats Lupertazzi soldier "Coco" Cogliano for insulting his daughter, "Little" Carmine attempts to mediate the dispute.

Phil initially agrees to have a "sit-down" and listen to Tony's peace proposal. When Tony and Carmine arrive at his house, Butch DeConcini answers the door.

Carmine is visibly confused after Butch tells them that Phil "is not accepting visitors right now," because they had only recently agreed to the meeting.

When Carmine informs him they brought a trailer full of Makita drills as a "peace offering," Butch scoffs and replies, "We don't want your f**king drills."

As they return to their car, they hear Phil shouting expletives at them from the top-floor window. He instructs Tony to return to New Jersey and explains that the sit-down is canceled because "cooler heads have prevailed."

This suggests Butch convinced him to reject the truce.

Since Phil is never shown on screen during this scene, fans often joke that he turned into a house.

Although Carmine urges him to come down and resolve the issue, Phil states there is "nothing left to discuss."

This scene represents a turning point in the series because it becomes evident that the Lupertazzi family leadership is no longer interested in peace.
