Meadow's recent lack of drive, caused by Jackie Jr.'s death, continues to worry Tony and Carmela. She reveals that she hasn't registered for classes because she hopes to travel to Europe with a friend. Tony discusses the problem with Dr. Melfi, who recommends a psychologist, Dr. Wendy Kobler, specializing in adolescents. Kobler encourages Meadow's plans, prompting a protracted family argument where Meadow confronts Tony about his profession; he claims that he did everything he could to save Jackie. She leaves the house and her parents fear she has left the country, but it is later revealed that she has instead returned to her classes at Columbia University.
Carmela begins flirting with Furio as he makes his morning visits to pick up Tony. Ralphie and Janice's relationship continues, despite Tony's disapproval.
Christopher is appointed acting capo of Paulie's crew; Patsy resents this, having been a made man longer than Christopher. Silvio suspects that Christopher is starting to usurp his place in Tony's inner circle.
Christopher visits a construction site where crew members have no-work jobs, and he indicates to Patsy that there are valuable fiber-optic cables which can be removed. Tony angrily reprimands Christopher for this, as the thefts might bring unwanted attention to their involvement. Later, despite Tony's orders, Silvio and Patsy steal floor tiles from the site. Jack Massarone complains to Tony, but Silvio deflects Tony's anger. An infuriated Christopher drives to the site and has a heated confrontation with Patsy.
At a dinner party, Ralphie makes an off-color joke about Johnny's wife Ginny, drawing laughter from all. Visiting Paulie in prison, Little Paulie repeats the joke. Paulie does not laugh.
Adriana now treats Danielle as her close friend and confidante. One evening at Adriana's club, Christopher, high on cocaine, is sitting on a sofa with the two women. As he kisses Adriana, he puts a hand on Danielle's thigh. Adriana is enraged, but when he claims Danielle took the initiative, Adriana chooses to believe him and cuts ties with Danielle.
The FBI decides to bring Adriana in and reveal Danielle's true identity as Agent Ciccerone. She is taken to meet with Chief Frank Cubitoso who threatens her with imprisonment for drug possession, or punishment from Tony Soprano if she does not co-operate. Adriana vomits all over herself, the table, and the agents.
