In this episode, “Calling All Cars” (Miami Beach Sign), which aired on November 24, 2002, Tony dreams: He is riding in the back of his father’s old Cadillac, which is being driven by Carmela with Ralphie beside her. There is a caterpillar on Ralphie’s bald head, then a butterfly. Tony at first sees Gloria sitting next to himself, then Svetlana. Tony discusses the dream with Dr. Melfi, who suggests that it signifies that Carmela is in control and Tony wants to square the changes in the lives of the others in the car with her. But Tony is growing dissatisfied with his therapy and rejects her interpretation. In the next session, he admits that Svetlana broke up with him because she thinks he is “high-maintenance,” and too hard to cope with emotionally. This is after four years of therapy. Although Melfi tells him that he needs to continue, he states that it is over. She offers to shake hands; he kisses her on the cheek and leaves.

In bed, she playfully praises his oral sex skills, but he stresses that she must never speak about this to anyone, and reluctantly explains that his associates “think if you suck pussy … it’s a sign of weakness.” However, Bobbi has already spoken about her sex life with a woman at her nail salon. Word reaches Carmela, who goes to the same nail salon, and she tells Tony. While playing golf with Junior, Tony makes thinly-veiled vulgar jokes about it. Junior realizes what is happening and contemplates killing Tony. Enraged, he fires Bobbi and breaks up with her.

Tony, Silvio, and Artie invite Meadow’s soccer coach Don Hauser to have drinks at the Bada Bing after a victory; they all have daughters on the team and are enthusiastic supporters. When they read in the newspaper that Don is moving to another coaching job, they try to convince him to stay. Paulie delivers a stolen 50-inch TV to Don’s house and insists he take it, while Christopher abducts Don’s dog and later, as “an animal lover”, returns it.

Tony tells Meadow that Don may change his mind about leaving, but she is ungrateful and upset. When he remonstrates, she tells him that Don is having sex with her teammate Ally. Tony resolves that Hauser will never do that again. During their therapy session, Dr. Melfi asks Tony why he thinks punishing Don is his responsibility. Artie tries to show Tony that he is acting for vengeance and his own satisfaction rather than justice; Tony throws Artie out of the Bada Bing, but stays alone drinking, wondering if Artie was right. Later that evening, Tony tells Silvio to cancel the hit on Don, who is arrested. Tony goes home, staggering drunk, and tells Carmela that he “didn’t hurt nobody”, as Meadow watches from the staircase.
