Jackie Jr., after a horribly failed attempt to make a name for himself ends in one of Chris' associates dead and another wounded, as well of two of Jackie's partners dead, is hiding out in a housing project awaiting word on his fate. Tony has left the decision to Ralphie, who understands that giving the kid a pass will cost him a great deal of trust and respect from the others, makes the decision to have him killed. At the funeral, Meadow grieves uncontrollably, despite Jackie's shabby treatment of her. Anthony, meanwhile, is expelled from high school after getting caught stealing the answers to an exam. Not knowing what else to do with their son, and wanting him to avoid Jackie's fate, Tony and Carmela decide to send him to a military academy. Just before he's about to go, however, he has another panic attack, leading Tony to reconsider his decision, even if it means leaving his son with no options for getting out of the gang life.
