}} Episode recapChristopher and Brendan return the stolen truck, but Junior is not satisfied. Junior and Mikey Palmice begin discussing their options for dealing with Chris, Brendan, and Tony. Meanwhile, Silvio approaches Tony on behalf of his friend, Hasidic motel owner Shlomo Teittleman, who offers to turn over 25% of his business if Tony forces Shlomo's son-in-law, Ariel, into agreeing to a divorce with no compensation. However, Tony's Jewish friend, Hesh Rabkin, warns Tony not to get involved with the Hasids. Paulie and Silvio accost Ariel, but are unable to convince him to walk away from the marriage and the business. The two resort to kidnapping Ariel, but are unable to coerce him into accepting their demands. Tony, angered by having to be dragged away from his mistress, is called in to interrogate Ariel himself. When he asks why Ariel is being stubborn, he states that he has put up with his father-in-law for years, and cannot accept a penniless divorce after financially providing for his wife. Tony is forced to call Hesh and takes his suggestion to threaten Ariel with castration, finally compelling him to divorce his wife on their terms. The next day, Shlomo refuses to give Tony his share because he used violence and threats, and instead offers Ariel 15% ownership of the motel. When Tony insists on the original 25% arrangement, Shlomo says he has created a golem; when Tony asks what that means, he calls him a "Frankenstein." In therapy, Tony discusses the cancer diagnosis of acting boss Jackie Aprile, Sr. When Dr. Melfi tries to use it as an example to show Tony he is trapped in negative thinking, he becomes angry and storms out because of what he thinks is Melfi's attempt to manipulate him. The crew visits Jackie in the hospital, where he is being cared for by his wife Rosalie. Tony later returns with a Bada Bing dancer dressed like a nurse, to give Jackie a "private party". On a third visit, Jackie's condition seems to have worsened and he is too preoccupied with his illness to talk business. Tony discusses Jackie's downturn and Shlomo's insult with Melfi. She asks him if he feels like a monster, i.e., lacking in feelings. Carmela organizes a silent auction at the Soprano home to raise money for a pediatric hospital. She recruits Charmaine and Artie to cater the event while visiting their new home. Tony and Artie have a brotherly food fight after Tony tells Artie to stop whining about the fire in his restaurant and start looking towards the future. Carmela offends Charmaine by using the same hand gesture she uses when calling her maid, essentially treating her like a servant. Later, to avenge the insult and to respond to Carmela's constant reassurance that the Buccos be back on their feet, Charmaine reveals that she and Tony once slept together before he married Carmela and that she is happy with the choice she made by marrying Artie. Meadow and Hunter, exhausted from choir practice and studying for the SATs, decide to buy speed from Chris and Brendan. Chris initially refuses, fearing Tony's wrath; however, his girlfriend Adriana La Cerva convinces him that it's better they get it from him than from street dealers. Chris agrees to give the drugs to Meadow "just this once" as long as she never tells anyone about it. Meanwhile, Junior visits Livia at Green Grove to discuss his situation with Chris and Brendan. Livia suggests that Junior only give Chris a stern "talking to", but professes to be unsure about Brendan. The "talking to" given to Chris manifests as a mock execution at the hands of Russian mobsters. Mikey shoots Brendan through the eye while he relaxes in his bathtub. Both scenes are inter-cut with Meadow's choir recital. First appearances

Production
ReceptionIn a retrospective review, Todd VanDerWerff of The A.V. Club wrote that the "[ending] montage - intercut with Tony watching Meadow sing - is one of the first moments when The Sopranos takes music and rises above its prosaic, muddy universe to become something like sublime"; VanDerWerff commented that although the episode "is a 'Let's get the plot wheels turning!' kind of episode, and those sorts of episodes can be a little trying from time to time", there is nonetheless "lots of it that is just expertly executed".[1] Alan Sepinwall praised Gandolfini's performance as well as the story involving Carmela and Charmaine, writing that the show "has a really great eye and ear for insults – particularly ones not necessarily intended as such".[2] Cultural references
