Tony Soprano seems to have mended his relationship with his sister, Janice, since their last fight, as he visits her and Bobby Baccalieri's house for a meal together where he is informed his Aunt Concetta died. While at the cemetery for her funeral, Tony meets Fran Felstein, his father's longtime comare. Over a matter of days, Tony spends time with her and learns more about his father's life through her stories. He also learns that his childhood dog, "Tippy," that he was told was taken to a farm for an illness, had instead been taken by Tony's father to Fran as a gift for her child. Tony's mother had wanted the dog removed from the house. Tony quickly gets over his anger at this, and Fran also tells Tony about her life, including all the times she resisted Junior's advances and her one-time fling with President John F. Kennedy. Fran and Tony tour a midget car racetrack where Fran asks Tony about the women in his life, his wife, and his girlfriend, while Tony admires her manners and dress as classy.
Fran tells Tony that John Soprano, before his death, promised to leave her a share of the midget car racetrack, but that Phil Leotardo and Hesh Rabkin cheated her out of this investment, with Hesh only sending her $500 once for it. Tony tries to collect the money on her behalf and has a sitdown with Hesh and Leotardo mediated by Johnny Sack. While Hesh agrees to pay, Phil is discontent at the decision to pay 25%, which amounts to almost $40,000 and keeps avoiding Tony. When Tony spots him buying an Italian water ice, the two get involved in a car chase that results in Phil crashing his car into a Boar's Head truck. Later, Tony is able to collect $150,000 for Fran.
