The tensions in New York City rise. Little Carmine is actively recruiting supporters for his faction: in one such meeting at his recently purchased mansion on the ocean where he is giving away the newest Whirlpool washing machines to his allies, their business is suddenly interrupted when Carmine's party boat, recently refurbished, is found damaged and sinks.
Tony Soprano meets with Johnny Sack and agrees to have Phil Leotardo's car fixed, previously crashed in a car chase with Tony, even though it was damaged because Phil owed Tony money. To save money, Tony has the work done in the late Pussy Bonpensiero's body shop (now run by Pussy's widow, Angie). Phil, however, is uncooperative with Angie, and claims numerous problems with the car (none of which Angie was originally to be responsible for). After the stressed Angie complains to Tony, he sends Tony Blundetto to oversee Phil's return visit to the shop. Despite himself determining the car to be fine, Tony B is unable to change Phil's mind, and he once again turns down a counteroffer and sticks Angie with the cost of $2,000 to replace a seat. At the site, Tony B meets Phil's aide, New York mob associate "Joey Peeps" who acts much more courteously towards him than Leotardo.
