Janice pushes Bobby to move on from Karen's death, whilst Tony makes a decision about psychotherapy.
This is a very strong reflective episode with great character insight.
Livia's lasting legacy on the Soprano family looms quite largely over an episode that portrays some fairly diabolical behaviour from Janice and a pretty poor show from AJ.
There are some very well made Tony dream sequences with lots of imagery to interpret. These are some of the best aspects of the episode and leaving them unexplained is the major strength. They link back to past episodes and characters brilliantly. The final one in particular has an incredible sense of foreboding after the decision Tony makes regarding Dr Melfi.
Other aspects of the overarching season narrative slow burns well, with the New Jersey mob's relationship with New York starting to heat up, along with the suspicion of Paulie, and Corrado's trial.
Visually it is quite brilliant at times, especially the final scene which includes a wonderful location reveal.
