Guy Walks Into a Psychiatrists Office
It's the long-awaited season opener and the more things change, the more they stay the same - and create agita for Tony Soprano

VS.

All Debts Public and Private
With the slowing economy affecting business, Tony invests in a potentially lucrative land deal, while Carmela frets about the family's long-term financial security. Problems abound among Tony's crime family as well: Uncle Junior worries about his pending RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act) trial; Adriana confides in her new friend Danielle, who may be an undercover FBI agent; and Christopher sets his sights on avenging an old murder.

My vote goes to Guy Walks Into a Psychiatrists Office.

46 Long...one of my favorite episodes for season one

[Hucksta G]

Toodle-Fucking-OO
Big brother of the late, great Jackie Aprile, Richie has just finished ten years in prison and is looking to pick up where he left off. He figures it should be pretty easy, too.

My vote goes to Toodle-Fucking-OO

[Slim]

Toodle-Fucking-OO

[MarkItZero]

Toodle-Fucking-OO

[CyclicNightmare]

Toodle-Fucking-OO.

If voting for this episode based solely on the title is wrong, I don't want to be right.

[Hucksta G]

4-0 to Toodle-Fucking-Oo

Commendatori
This week Tony goes to the old country to conduct new business while Carmela stays home and contemplates the nature of marriage.

VS.

Employee of the Month
Ralph Cifaretto, who took over Richie Aprile's garbage business and is dating Jackie Aprile's widow, Rosalie, endears himself to Jackie Jr. but loses points with Tony. Tony's therapy takes a detour when a personal crisis gets in the way (rape). Svetlana enlists Russian thugs in her conflict with Janice and New York City crime boss Johnny Sack moves to Tony's neighborhood.

Both are two of my favourite episodes but Employee of the Month gets my vote.

College
On a trip to Maine to visit colleges with Meadow, Tony thinks he spots an old friend with whom he has some unfinished business.

VS.

Pie-O-My
Tony discovers he has a knack for horseracing strategy when Ralph buys a filly named "Pie-O-My." Ralph wins $40,000 and shares it with Tony. The mob boss is smitten with the filly, and his tough-guy demeanor softens whenever he's around the animal. But at home, things are not as serene for Tony. When Carmela presents him with an irrevocable trust, he refuses to sign the document. Meanwhile, Adriana finds her club increasingly used as a place of business for Christopher and his cronies; a court sketch artist incurs the wrath of Uncle Junior over an unflattering likeness; and Janice comforts Bobby.

College gets my vote.

[t3h Qster]

pax soprana

[Hucksta G]

Pax Soprana wins 3-2 I was actually quite suprsied to see that beat University but oh well.

D-girl
On the eve of Anthony, Junior's confirmation, uncertainty abounds. A.J. has discovered Camus and Nietzsche and thinks life is meaningless. Christopher has a tryst with his cousin's filmmaker fiancee and thinks he would rather be a player in Hollywood than New Jersey. And Pussy must decide whether the threat of thirty years in prison can force him to wear a wire into Tony's house

vs.

Watching Too Much Television
Tony and Ralph disregard the advice of Carmela's cousin, a financial adviser, about a moneymaking scheme; Adriana is getting anxious to tie the knot; Paulie finally gets out of jail.

Both are excellent episodes but I'm going with D-Girl.

[Slim]

D-girl

[Bryce Canyon]

Fuckin' D-Girl

[Hucksta G]

3-0 to D-Girl

Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti
Everybody's got "agita" over rumors of impending federal indictments, and Christopher's looking for a purpose to his life -- like writing a screenplay.

VS.

He is Risen
Tony's feud with Ralph reaches the fail-safe point. Meadow and Jackie Jr. find they have more in common than they thought. Tony's generosity in giving his time slot with Dr. Melfi to another patient pays off.

Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti by a long way!

From Where to Eternity
Christopher, clinically dead for a moment during surgery, has a textbook out-of-body experience. Paulie consults a psychic. In therapy, Dr. Melfi tells her psychiatrist about her complex relationship with Tony, and discusses her growing substance abuse problems.

VS.

Whoever Did This
At first, Ralphie's biological son is playing archery with a friend, and is hit by an arrow. A big loss of oxygen caused him to become a "vegetable." In another development, the stables burned down, Pie-oh-My was burned badly and was put to death. Tony thinks that this is Ralphie's doing and whacks him. The last half of the episode is devoted to Tony and Christopher making Ralph Cifaretto "disappear.

From Where to Eternity is a great episode but no competition for Whoever Did This!

[Slim]

From Where to Eternity

[Bryce Canyon]

Whoever Did This...it should've happened a long time ago!

[Hucksta G]

2-1 to Whoever Did This lol I really don't know why so few people vote in this tourni thanks alot to the people who do.

A Hit is a Hit
Tony tries moving in new social circles, and a rap star tries moving in on Hesh's music profits.

VS.

The Strong, Silent type
Dr. Melfi disagrees with Tony's latest self-evaluation; Anthony Jr. reluctantly accompanies his mother on a visit to Furio's; Christopher's future may not be so rosy after all

My vote goes to The Strong, Silent Type.

vs.

Pine Barrens

[Hucksta G]

4-0 to Pine Barrens

The Knight in White Satin Armor
What's to be done about Richie Aprile? It's not a rhetorical question. And it's going to have to be answered soon because he's rapidly running out his string with Tony. Richie's not the only one with whom Tony would like to sever ties. He's been trying to break up with Irina, his Russian goomah, but she's not the kind of girl you can just shove a pie at, Junior-style. Meanwhile, Pussy's grown increasingly resentful of the Boss' treatment of him since his return. Is Pussy's resentment strong enough that he'll finally give Tony up to the Feds?

VS.

Amor Fou
Inspired by Ralph, Jackie, Jr. decides to "make his move" in organized crime. Guilt prompts Carmela to make an interesting confession to her priest.

The season closer, in which the "merda" really hits the fan: Wise guys are arrested, rats are whacked and Tony and Livia finally see eye to eye.

VS.

Army of One
Anthony Jr. faces the prospect of military school. Tony orders Ralph to deal with Jackie, Jr. and Meadow reflects the meaning of life and death in the Soprano family.
