  Episode Summary  
Junior is more than thrilled when he is named the new Boss of New Jersey and no one is more upset than Tony. After Junior decides to tax Hesh, Tony goes behind his uncle's back and sets up a meeting between Junior, Hesh and Johnny Sack, so the later two can get Junior to change is mind. Tony and Carmela end up celebrating their 18th wedding anniversary in Johnny's Manhattan restaurant where Carmela realizes that she is jealous of Dr. Melfi more than she ever has been with one of his mistresses.

  Episode Quotes  
Mikey Palmice: (to Rusty Irish) Listen to me. I'm gonna give you a break. I'm gonna give you a break. When I toss you over, if you can fly, I won't shoot you down.
 
Dr. Melfi: When's the last time you had a prostate exam?
Tony: Hey, I don't even let anybody wag their finger in my face.
Dr. Melfi: I'm sorry, I shouldn't have laughed.
Tony: Don't apologize.
Dr. Melfi: Oh boy.
Tony: You got a nice laugh.
 
Dr. Melfi: What's the one thing, every woman, your mother, your wife, your daughter, have in common?
Tony: They all break my balls.
 
Tony: All due respect to New York, I don't think you should be tellin' my uncle how ta run things.
Johnny Sack: You think I got the balls ta drive in from New York and tell your uncle how we should run this family? I shouldn't expect to see the Statue of Liberty again if I did that, huh?
 
Tony: (to Junior) Remember the story you told me about the father bull talking to the son. They're up on this hill and looking down on a bunch of cows. And the son goes to the father, "Dad, why don't we run down there and fuck one of these cows?" Now do you remember what the father said? Father says, "Son, why don't we walk down there and fuck them all?"
 
Junior: I always thought you could make the pros. You could have done it. You had a swing like Joe D.
Tony: You're crazy.
Junior: What? You think I'm fucking you?
Tony: Yeah, I could barely hit .250.
Junior: That's because you didn't want it. Too busy chasing skirt. Chasing skirt, your average was .500.
 
Tony: Carm, you're not just in my life. You are my life.
