Dr. Melfi takes centerstage in this episode. She gets raped in the stairwell and comes to realize she wants someone powerful in her life that can protect her. She can't help but be attracted to Tony Soprano. The episode ends with her internally fighting herself, trying to decide whether or not to tell Tony what's happened. In the end, she decides not to.
Do we really need this? I've always thought Melfi was a waste of a character. Do we care about her at all?
Janice steals her mother's caregiver's artificial leg. The Russians come after her and slap her around. Tony's upset because now he has to take some kind of action.
The show succeeds at getting inside the heads of these characters. It fails though at bringing action to the screen.
