Although I have entertained numerous outcomes and ongoings in the finale, I have to remember it is only an hour show and there is only so much they can possibly squeeze in.
Obviously, resolutions will me made in the ongoing NY/NJ saga. Look for some kind of truce to be made after Tony and Phil both realize that they have lost far too much to continue the bloodshed. I predict one more major character will die. I hope it is not Paulie, who at around 70 is looking to take a lesser role in family.
Tony, who left us last episode laying in a sheetless mattress holding and assault rifle for comfort, may have time to finally reflect on all his misdeeds over his lifetime in the Mafia. To draw from previous episodes, the shark has finally stopped moving, and the roulette ball has come crashing down into the cup. Hopefully, it is not too late as Tony is in danger of losing his entire Mafia family to the war and may have no one left to give orders to. Also, his own family, like the ducks, may be in danger of flying away if they come out of denial about what Tony does for a living and realize that it has had disastrous consequences on everyone.
Also, it seems like the terrorist issue has not been completely cleared up as the writers continue to push the issue. Somehow this might tie in to AJ's obsession with terrorism, violence and the war in Iraq. The "Made in America" title may also have something to do with this storyline.
In the end, I believe Tony will end up with the worst outcome possible: Living the rest of his life dwelling on the past, and having no one to comfort him in the future.
Wild Card: The women, who have possessed the most power in the show will put Tony out of his misery. Carmela or Janice will pull the trigger that may have been Livia's to pull had Nancy Marchand still been alive.
