• Tony Soprano : [Referring to his mother's passing, disappointed she didn't comment on her passing]  "No I'm sorry? My condolences," nothing?

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : [Remains silent]

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : [Remains silent] 

  Tony Soprano : You know everybody else, bullshit

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : [Remains silent] 

  Tony Soprano : Alright, here's the thing: I'm glad she's dead, not just glad, I wished she died. I had this court case coming up, she might've testified against me so when I heard she was dead, relief flooded into my veins

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : How do you feel about the fact your own mother would've testified against you?

  Tony Soprano : [Annoyed, regretting what he said about wishing his mother dead]  oh come on, will you listen to yourself? I mean is that right? Wishing her dead? Is that being a good son?

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : A good son?

  Tony Soprano : Yeah a good son, I mean bad sons and...

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : Bad sons what?

  Tony Soprano : They should fuckin die, that's a fuckin miserable, disgusting thing to be a bad son, I mean your kid better be a good son right?

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : [Remains silent] 

  Tony Soprano : You know what? Your right, why the fuck should I be a good son to that fuckin demented old bat? That fuckin selfish miserable cunt?

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : [Remains silent]

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : But he wasn't "her son" what did she do to you?

  Tony Soprano : Come on that's a matter of public record in here, we both know...

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : [Referring to the fact that he lobes his mother]  You don't like to say it do you?

  Tony Soprano : Who knows if she even knew what she was doing

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : You're letting her off

  Tony Soprano : [Referring to Tony's mother planning to have him killed]  my uncle denies it, you know, that she took part

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : Your uncle loves you

  Tony Soprano : I never said he didn't

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : Grown children often secretly wish for an aging parent to die and it's not necessary for the parent to be a witness for the prosecution. It's a taboo thought, but common particularly if the parent has lost all capacity for the joy of being alive

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : [Acknowledging she's right]  so, we're probably done here right? she's dead
