Divorced or not, the former Mr. and Mrs. Corinthos still know each other like the back of their hands. And the fact that no one understands either of them the way they understand each other tells the story.
The mob life is something Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) chose long ago. Throughout his journey, he’s come in contact with many people. He’s had his fair share of experience with outsmarting and fighting enemies, and protecting his family.
Moreover, Sonny always had a strong woman to lean on. Who am I kidding? Carly wasn’t just a good, strong woman to lean on. Actually, she was his rock. Carly knew better than to give him problems, although she ultimately gave him problems lol. But the way Carly went about things when it comes to Sonny’s business reassured him of her full support. As a mobster’s wife, you have to be prepared for anything. And that, Carly was.
Carly’s Still Sonny’s Choice
Meanwhile, Sonny and Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) play this little game of pretend. It’s the one where they both know that Nina isn’t the right fit for Sonny, yet neither can admit it. But deep down Sonny knows who his perfect match is. Furthermore, he knows he can turn to Carly for anything, at any time. And that’s exactly what he did. Sonny needs Carly’s help and she’s willing to give it. Where does that leave Nina? On the outside looking in.
