- Tony Blundetto (Steve Buscemi): Buscemi also directs several episodes. Tony B. is the tragic heart of Season 5—a man who wanted to be a chiropractor but is dragged back into violence. His feud with Phil Leotardo (the great Frank Vincent) over a botched hit sets up the bloody war to come.
- The New York Tensions: Johnny Sack (Vince Curatola) becomes the de facto boss of New York, but his paranoia and Phil Leotardo’s sadism escalate. The "Test Dream" (Episode 11) sees Tony reliving his greatest fears in a surreal, Fellini-esque nightmare.
- Adriana’s Tragedy: Chris Moltisanti’s fiancée, Adriana La Cerva (Drea de Matteo), has been an FBI informant since Season 3. In Season 5’s "Long Term Parking," Silvio Dante drives her into the woods. The murder of Adriana is the show’s lowest emotional point—she was the only truly innocent main character.
