That's the first thing that came to mind. Pauly was a savage realist. Last man standing type dude. Remember that time he found out one of his moms friends had a stash of cash. Next thing Tony got a new Espresso Machine and old an woman died in her sleep.

David Chase know he fucked up when he didn't follow up with that storyline. You can't lay that perfect bread crumb and just walk away and leave it there. That's bad writingAccording to David Chase:

Officially, they never did. I did read an article or heard in a podcast that they did have a storyline in another season where the Russian was supposed to be in some critical care situation due to the head wound and had no memory of what happened. They decided against that. IMHO it works better that way.
