Plot summary[]

Tony is in hiding with his crew. At nightfall, he meets FBI Agent Harris and gives him information about Ahmed and Muhammad. In exchange, he asks for Phil's location, but Harris says he knows nothing. Tony visits his family in the safe house where they are hiding and later joins them in attending Bobby's funeral. Tony visits Janice at her house; she tells him she will raise Bobby's children. Harris calls Tony with information that Phil has been using payphones from gas stations in Oyster Bay, Long Island, and Tony's crew begins surveilling gas stations in the area.

Butchie and Ray-Ray await anxiously for news on Tony’s whereabouts in the now significantly shrunken and cold Little Italy. Phil calls Butchie from a payphone, expresses anger about his failure to kill Tony, and rejects Butchie's suggestion to make peace. Phil vaguely threatens Butchie before hanging up. After Phil abruptly hangs up on him, Butchie looks up and realizes he mistakenly strayed onto Chinatown. He decides to turn back. Tony meets with Butchie and Albie to negotiate without Phil's knowledge. Butchie refuses to disclose his boss' location, but agrees to a truce and tells Tony to "do what you gotta do".

Tony and his family move back into their North Caldwell home. Benny and Walden track Phil to a gas station and shoot him dead; Agent Harris is pleased by this news, seemingly because there was an FBI pool on which crime family would kill the other.

A.J. and his girlfriend Rhiannon escape from his Nissan Xterra after he left its engine running in dry leaves and let it catch fire. He takes up jogging and tells his parents he intends to join the Army. They arrange for him to work for Little Carmine's film production company instead.

Meadow and Patrick announce they are engaged and that Meadow may land a job at a law firm. Meadow tells Tony she wants to defend those oppressed by the government, particularly immigrants; she considers her father a victim of FBI prejudice against Italian-Americans. Tony visits the comatose Silvio in the hospital.

Carlo goes missing; Paulie fears he may have become an informant after his son Jason was arrested on a drugs charge. Tony's lawyer, Neil Mink, tells Tony that Carlo is likely testifying and that Tony will be indicted.

With Carlo gone, Tony meets with Paulie at Satriale’s and offers him the leadership of the Aprile crew. Paulie initially refuses, worrying that the crew is cursed, but accepts when Tony tells him he will offer the position to Patsy. When Tony leaves, Paulie is left sitting alone at Satriale’s, the cat staring at him being the only living thing left next to him.

Janice visits an Alzheimer’s ridden Junior in a state-run care home to tell him of Bobby's death, but Junior is too confused to understand. Pat tells Tony he believes Janice is scheming to claim for herself the last money Junior's accountant is holding. Tony claims he no longer cares of what happens to Junior, but decides to visit him one last time to prevent the money from going to Janice.

Tony visits Junior and tells him to give the money to Bobby's children, but realizes Junior does not recognize him. Tony tries to get Junior to remember the money’s location, but Junior doesn’t remember what the money even was. Junior reacts with surprise when Tony reminds him of his involvement in the Mafia, and Tony leaves with tears in his eyes.

The Sopranos arrange to meet at a diner. Tony arrives first at the table, listens to "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey on the mini jukebox and watches customers come and go. Carmela arrives next, and Tony tells her Carlo will testify. A.J. then arrives and reminds his father of his advice to "remember the good times". Meanwhile, the focus is placed on many different customers at the diner, including a man wearing a Members Only jacket who heads to the bathroom by Tony’s side. Meadow arrives late and parks her car outside after a number of tries. As the entrance bell rings, Tony looks up and the screen suddenly cuts to black for several seconds before the end credits begin rolling.
