Im wrapped up in that level.

You remain Ghosts consigliere, right?Some have used that word before.

Its one thing when Proctor has his license and is operating as a lawyer.

Without that license, he still has the consigliere persona and is still getting information from Tommy and Ghost.

Now the FBI is putting a lot of pressure on everyone at this point.

So everyone has to cover their backs.

Theres pressure on you to expose Ghost?Since last season, yeah.

Assistant U.S. Attorney John Mak (Sung Kang) is out to get me.

Im so glad Im not a criminal.

Going into this year, I dont think the stakes have ever been higher.

Everyone is playing for keeps now.

He kind of got brought into it.

He sort of liked it.

Youll learn a little bit more about Proctors back story this season.

Youll learn a little bit more of where Proctor was before he met Ghost.

He didnt necessarily run when stuff got out of control.

Remind me of whats on that laptop.Its the audio file of Tommy killing Ruiz.

It would bring it all down.

Thats why Tommy killed the guy.

Where is the laptop?

You theoretically still have it, right?Theoretically, yes, I still have it.

Does it come up this season, theoretically?It could.

What about Proctor and Tommy?

The shoes kind of on the other foot now.

Theres a lot of good in Tommy and Proctor interacts with him this year.

What has this show meant to your career?

How has it been?Oh, my God.

I enjoy it for so many reasons, besides the obvious of just really loving and enjoying everybody involved.

now there are younger people who come up to me with no idea aboutEntourageor who Turtle even was.

Even people my age.

Like, theyve never seenEntourage.

They know me as Proctor and they want to know where that laptop is.

Seriously?My wife even plays in on the joke.

Dont worry about it.

Shes a quick one.

Where is the most unlikely place youve encountered a fan?Theres been lots.

The weirdest experience ever, the urinal experience is always the weirdest.

I dont know why it seems like a good place for someone to have a conversation.

Oh, and on my honeymoon in Bora Bora.

A lot of the characters on the show are bad people.

Are you surprised when you meet fans who are super into these bad people?Yes and no.

Again, my favorite actor of all time was James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano.

He did a lot of bad things, but people just loved him.

Its almost like, how do you even get an audience to do that?

It really comes down to good writing and good acting and good storytelling.

Im not saying the audience forgives Ghost and Tommy and Tasha and Angela for some of their bad deeds.

Its really up to creator Courtney Kemp and the powers that be.

I have my thoughts.

I think Proctors a survivor.

In my mind, I think he finds a way to scratch and claw and survive.
