Why does the priest have a full bottle of wine in The Sopranos S01E05?
I was re-watching The Sopranos. In Season 1 Episode 5, With Carmela, the priest says that he has a communion kit because he went to see a (presumably dying) patient in the hospital (to give communion).
But the wine bottle is full. Is this a goof or was it intentional and means that the priest lied? (Or maybe something else?)
Best Answer
I doubt that Father Phil drove around with a communion kit to a clothing drive and then to Carmella on the off-chance that they have Communion for some reason and a sip of wine will get her in the mood. They drink wine anyway before that scene and do so casually, since Father Phil feels at home there and usually passive-aggressively helps himself to their amenities. He doesn't need to trick her like that.
So I think he was telling the truth, and the options as I see them are:
- This is a goof and the writers\production simply didn't think this through;
- The patient Father Phil was visiting either died or got better before he got there, so his services weren't needed after all;
- Father Phil refilled the decanter somehow. Maybe he has some extra sacramental wine in his car for emergencies. This is conjecture, though.

The bear represents the danger that lurks outside the Soprano household, something Carmela tries desperately to shield her family from.
