As Tony Soprano sleeps in his bedroom, a sleepless A.J. turns on some rap music, waking his father up. When Tony goes downstairs later, he finds that the gift he bought for Carmela in Las Vegas, an engraved watch, has arrived by courier. Carmela recalls that Tony said he went to Vegas to wrap up some of Christopher Moltisanti's business there and mentions that Christopher's widow, Kelli, will need financial support now. When Tony shows up at the office at Satriale's, a framed picture of Christopher, taken on the set of Cleaver, has been put up on the wall by the other mobsters. Tony wistfully tells the guys about the sex and the peyote experience in Vegas, but, when they do not seem to be that captivated by it, he changes the subject.
Tony is accompanied by Silvio Dante and Bobby Baccalieri as he goes to a sitdown with Phil Leotardo in New York. Tony tries to reach a compromise with Phil about the asbestos removal project, this time offering him a bigger percentage of the profits. Phil remains firm and refuses to consider anything else than his original position, 25%. Tony then tries appealing to his senses by publicly reminding him of the talk they had while Phil was recovering in hospital. Phil coldly rejects Tony's offer out of hand and ostentatiously emphasizes the compromises he was already forced to make in his life including the 20 years he spent in prison living in difficult conditions. No deal is reached yet again and a frustrated Tony leaves the meeting with his men. Tony reacts to Phil's stubbornness by taking Phil's men "Coco" and Butch DeConcini off the payroll from another construction project. Butchie and "Coco" viciously beat the foreman and steal his wallet when he gives them the bad news.
