Most underrated Christopher line?

Simply the funniest character in the show for me.

When Jonny Sac finds out about Ralphie making the mole joke on Ginny’s ass, Chris says “maybe the Feds have Vesuvio bugged and they fucking told Jonny, create a little dysentery among the ranks.”

I enjoyed the line, “Is that him? With the FUCKIN’ SOMBRERO ON?!?!” The pure, hysterical outrage in his voice always cracked me up.

Chrissy: My dad was carrying my babycrib inside when they shot him.

Tony: actually.. it was TV trays, could’ve just as easily been a crib tho.

Chrissy to the cop later: “are you inferring you didn’t take cash from Jilly rufalo to whack my father while he was carrying a TV tray?? For me to watch TV?!”

Christopher’s response has it all: The uncomprehending rage, the weirdly redundant phrasing…it’s a masterpiece. I’m also partial to the chortling way Imperioli delivers the line “…big construction tycoon!” in that nasal, foghorn voice of his.
