What is the name of the episode where Silvio Dante is shot?

The story behind the answer

The episode where Silvio Dante is shot is “The Blue Comet.” It is the penultimate episode of The Sopranos, the 20th episode of season 6, and originally aired on June 3, 2007.

The shooting occurs during an escalating conflict between the Lupertazzi and Soprano families. Silvio and Patsy Parisi leave the Bada Bing after discussing the planned hit on Phil Leotardo. In the parking lot, gunmen ambush them. Patsy escapes by car, but Silvio is badly wounded and collapses beside the vehicle.

Silvio survives the shooting but falls into a coma, and the series never shows him fully recovering. This is sometimes confused with “Made in America,” the finale that follows, because the consequences of the attack continue into that episode. “The Blue Comet” also contains Bobby Baccalieri’s death and the final major breakdown of the families’ alliance, making it one of the show’s most consequential late episodes.
