 Tony Blundetto is seething with anger over the death of his good friend Angelo. Apparently, while Angelo was shopping for a present for his grandchild, Phil and Billy Leotardo, members of Johnny Sack s crew, ambushed him, killing him in the trunk of Phil s car. When Tony Soprano hears about the murder, he immediately tries to contact his cousin, but there is no answer; Tony has already gone to avenge Angelo s death. Tony Soprano goes to sleep, and goes into a long dream, in which important figures of his past who are now dead, including Big Pussy, Carmine, Mikey Palmice, Jackie Aprile, and even Pie-O-My, appear to him. Eventually, the dream figures explain to Tony the painful truth he has obviously known but not acknowledged: he must kill his cousin Tony or else face a long and bloody gang war between the families.
