Quotes 

• [Meadow reproves her cousin for making careless accusatory comments about how Jackie Jr. died] 

  Meadow Soprano : Our dads are in the garbage business, and it's always good for a laugh. And, yeah, they brush up against organised crime. But, do you think they control every slime ball and illegal gun in like a hundred communities? The fact that you would even say this in front of an outsider is amazing to me! Jesus Christ, some loyalty?

• Carmela Soprano : [after waking her up]  Your father and I have to drive AJ up to Hudson Institute for his interview... I would feel better if you were up and moving

  Meadow Soprano : Jackie is dead and you perseverate on a secondary school

  Carmela Soprano : I was up half the night with Roe and this morning her sister and I made all the funeral arrangements. Your brother doesn't have a school, he can't be allowed to sit around all day to chat on the web with the other dropouts and "flakes"

  Meadow Soprano : [referring to Jackie Jr]  You know, he's the first person my own age I knew that ever died

  Carmela Soprano : He knew all the risks involved

  Meadow Soprano : [referring to ecstasy]  What, the ex? Half the kids I know take it: You have to get it from someone, it's not something you get killed over

  Carmela Soprano : Except that he did

  Meadow Soprano : Or not

  Carmela Soprano : meaning?

  Meadow Soprano : Look at who he grew up with, look at who his father was, look at everybody we know

  Carmela Soprano : Let's not get "cute"

  Meadow Soprano : [sarcastically]  When I'm being "cute", I'll let you know

  Carmela Soprano : You liked Jackie, so you don't want to believe that he did this to himself. So, like a lot of other people, you go around looking for bogeymen to blame: bogeymen with Italian names. So, whatever your thinking, you just stop thinking it right now because that is not what happened

• Carmela Soprano : You, ok?

  Meadow Soprano : yeah

  Carmela Soprano : [driving from Rosalie Aprile's home]  You had a few drinks over there: we all could use it

  Meadow Soprano : I was thinking before about what you once said how you have to "max out" the good times with the people you love? God, that is so true

  Carmela Soprano : Actually, your father said that

  Meadow Soprano : Anyway, when you look at how people deal with each other, even families, like Jackie's family

  Carmela Soprano : what about them?

  Meadow Soprano : They were never there for him. I mean Aunt Roe's sweet but she's like hello? Uncle Jackie? It's narcissistic: they let him do whatever he wants and you'd ask him "Aren't you afraid what your parents are gonna say?" and he would just go " They don't give a shit" but I think it hurts his feelings inside

  Carmela Soprano : Well, I'm glad you see

  Meadow Soprano : [sarcastically, irritated]  Yeah, right, your glad I see? What you take from this is an excuse to get intrusive and controlling: that's not what I'm talking about, Jesus!

  Carmela Soprano : What did I say? You are out from under our roof

  Meadow Soprano : AJ then, use it against him

  Carmela Soprano : against him?

  Meadow Soprano : I'm sorry I said anything

• Meadow Soprano : [Jokingly, after answering the phone while studying in her dorm]  Taco Bell

  A.J. Soprano : Hi

  Meadow Soprano : Hey

  A.J. Soprano : There's something I've got to tell you

  Meadow Soprano : I heard

  A.J. Soprano : How?

  Meadow Soprano : Like mom's not totally going to tell me you got expelled?

  A.J. Soprano : Not that

  Meadow Soprano : I heard you "cracked" to the cop everything

  A.J. Soprano : They had my DNA

  Meadow Soprano : Moron, it takes like six weeks to get DNA tests

  A.J. Soprano : Shit

  Meadow Soprano : I've got to go

  A.J. Soprano : No, I didn't tell you yet

  Meadow Soprano : What?

  A.J. Soprano : Jackie was doing a drug deal with some black dudes and they shot him, his like dead
