There's a scene in Oliver Stone's "Nixon" where James Woods, playing Bob Haldeman, says to John Erlichman, played by J.D. Walsh, "You know we're next, don't you?" Nixon had just fired his close friend John Mitchell. Well, Vinny is next. If this season goes in the crapper, Vinny has to get wacked. So the wheel of progress moves forward, however slowly.

You are pretty much dead on.

Maybe a year or two off on VC though.
