"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." George Santayana
The reoccurring theme weaved throughout this episode is consequences.
Be cautious in your undertakings and think of the consequences before acting. Handling things by simply how you feel or running on impulse is a disaster waiting to happen.
Be careful about what you say around children. They are liable to repeat what they hear and sometimes to the wrong people. Children do not fully understand the consequences of repeating what they know to others.
There is always a point in your life when you figure out who your parents are. However, this usually comes to you when you are an adult yourself and can put past experiences together with the correct perspective.
Not everything or everyone can be taken in the context of black and white. (I'm not talking about race.) Sometimes people are just complicated and their actions really do not make sense.
Some people are just high on the drama. Oh, you know the type. We all do...

What continues to amaze me about the Sopranos in re-watching these episodes is what a genuine masterpiece it was. I've already reviewed the many aspects of the show that I am not discussing here (mainly because I'm trying to blog not write a 12 volume encyclopedia.) But, I do want to continue to acknowledge the immense planning that must have went into this show. Did David Chase intend to make this show with tidbits of wisdom throughout? The story is on its surface about wise guy and his crew. I mean is a wise guy someone who has figured out the way to handle things and manipulate circumstances to their needs? Is this all just an natural progression of what its all about anyway? Without the wisdom there would be no show? Yes, I would say this show would not be of any value without the wisdom. It's not like Gilligan's Island where quite frankly wisdom just wasn't in play.
