There are lots of beautiful ladies in this show, but to me Melfi has always been rather special.

Charles Ferdinand has been making the exact same comment about Dr Melfi on lots of other videos. He has a psychological problem of some sort.

I love the way she sunk a little after saying "Fuck you!" to Tony. It's like "Please don't hit me please don't hit me..."

***** Extremely gutsy, but well called-for, well delivered, and well in turn.

[@RichWeigel]

Yep that took balls that most men wouldn't have. I just wonder if that actually impressed Tony a little.

[@ralphgoodwin7768]

Really? I don't get that vibe at all from her

[@rocknepoovey4381]

[@kay1229]

I always thought of it as a mix of assertiveness but a certain increasing level of "Did I just do that ?"

[@gatsby1000]

For me it's the hurt that makes me forgive them you can just see so much pain his face at the end

[@clc-gl4jn]

The reason the ending threw Tony off was because it reminded him of his mother when the way she said “get out of my life” and the denial behind it. It really reminded me of my Italian mom way too much. Scary

you have to be THE biggest idiot on planet earth to even get remotely involved with any of those mob psychos. The men, women and even the kids. Good lord. This show was so great at pointing this out. What a classic!!

[@Pengd]

True, but you call these guys Psychos? Sure their mind isn't in the right places but you should see how organized crime operates in Mexico, now those are Psychos. Raping and torturing each other's family members who have nothing to do with the business simply for the sake of revenge.

[@steverogers7601]

@@Pengd you’re using ‘’whattaboutisms’’ to deflect away from the sopranos crew. Yes, you’re right, other groups are just as crazy and psychos (there, ya happy now?) but pointing that you does not make the sopranos crew any less of psychos. The show itself tries so damn hard to show you hard fucked up and hypocritical these people are, that it’s not even a secret or ‘’hidden meaning’’ how crazy and sociopathic they are.

[@tmdrdd]

That diner had already been closed down for a few years when they filmed that scene. (Note the dirty windows) They simply added background noises in post production.

[@Laurian21]

did tony not realize she was basically like a priest to him, washing away and condoning his sins? he could never tell her the truth about things he did but always expected sympathy. psychiatry actually helped tony in becoming a better criminal. the show made it look like tony was oblivious to these facts but i like to think deep down he knew and he was trying to manipulate melfi as he did with people in his daily mob activities

[@rammmin1]

I think that was the point, in movie they use this technique to show different side of the person through interaction with some trusted friend and instead of monologue we know whats going on in protagonist mind .but main point is to manifest hypocrisy ,family values and other bs.

[@Howard.Stern.]

Carmela falsely confesses to the priests. Tony falsely confesses with Melfi. He tells Melfi his affairs, his crimes, even talks about murders. All to alleviate his guilt. And Melfi takes his money and even gets a thrill out of treating a mob boss until the penultimate episode. Melfi treats him even after he drives her to alcoholism.

[@usnva5638]

I've been covering a ton of clips with James Gandolfini in The Sopranos and one peculiarity is his heavy breathing in many scenes, this scene here it was included after the psychiatrist tells him, "Get Out of my Life!!!" This man [actor] was laboring on the set. He apparently had an underlying serious health issue. Furthermore, people need to take it easy with calorie/carbohydrate intake and ration out their portions over a weekly setting. All you see in movies like this are Italians eating red meat, pasta, cheese, white breads, and gulping down bottles of wine every meal. Whatever happened to a diet high in protein and fiber? I think James Gandolfini gave us more than just superb acting. He also enlightened some of us to a tell tale sign of serious health issues.

[@usnva5638]

Durins Bane Gandolfini was put on many sets eating lots of capicola, strombolis, red meats and high carb dinners. This dietary lifestyle [or lack thereof] could have poured over into his life off the set, or perhaps he ate like that his entire life. In any event I miss him a lot.

[@nathanzamora8070]

USNVA that's called acting

[@micmac6171]

I think his heavy breathing was a sign he was trying not to lose his temper.

[@scifinerd17]

It wasn’t just the food he was eating, it was the cocaine and the alcohol he was consuming as well.

She could try doesnt mean the client will pay though.From the writing of the show the one who committed suicide never called her.

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

I didnt like her character.She was two faced about blame.She could be easily influenced by her colleagues.She would act completely unprofessional at times.She would get upset over stupid shit sometimes.She charged a shitload for her service but certainly didnt refund it when she felt she wasnt helping the many she served.

[@newjackz1589]

She was talking about Gloria the entire time

[@demon5928]

No she wasn't. He hadn't even met Gloria during this time.

[@mindsaglowin]

Melfi demonstrates why psychotherapy is just a huge crock, a big game. She earlier tells Tony that He can't blame himself for Gloria's suicide but then blames herself for her patient's suicide for not being there for her. In my opinion, clinical psychologists are the prime cause of suicides.

[@SeansLipSyncingSock]

Watch the scene where she and Tony discuss Gloria Trillo's suicide: she (Melfi) regrets being unable to have helped a patient but knows Gloria had multiple problems and "slipped through everyone's grasp", including hers despite her "giving [Dr. Melfi's] patients everything [she's] got." Also, when Tony first tells Dr. Melfi she should "leave town" and says he'll "take care" of the guys who could "clip" her, she says, "Oh my god...people are going to get murdered, aren't they?" In this scene Tony may be thinking she blames herself for his committing murder; her reaction is outrage at his ignoring just how badly this has hurt her practice, including a patient's tragic delusion that the only alternative to meeting with her psychiatrist was to commit suicide. Finally, in this scene, she says, "Walking away is a choice. Ruing my practice? It's a choice." Part of what psychologists do is guide their patients to take responsibility (the mob's decisions have led to her having to lam it, resulting in a patient's suicide) or realize any fallacy in blame (Gloria was not suicidal because of Dr. Melfi or Tony--she even asks Tony, "Why are you so quick to blame yourself?").

[@SeansLipSyncingSock]

***** That would explain Melfi's anger at having her practice compromised. She helped Gloria as much as she could, knowing Gloria was so unstable as to be unpredictable. This unnamed patient who committed suicide may have been honest about her suicidal tendencies, and her relationship with Melfi was a lifeline, as you put it, and telephone calls are not always as good as seeing someone face to face. Melfi could have kept returning to her office, but had she been killed she would have been lost to all her patients. Her practice, and this patient's lifeline (i.e. support system) was compromised because Tony sought psychiatric help when he must have known how the other gangsters could react.

[@RB2331]

***** good post Anthony ..the only thing is that patient has to realize Dr.Melfi can not and will not always be available all the times and if she took her life then it was only a matter of time she was going to Go ! She couldn't be there 24/7 ..that woman had serious problems beyond Therapy .

[@YentaY0]

no - she blames Tony

[@alanaronald244]

Bad clinical psychologists may indeed increase the number of suicides.

[@keithelliott2328]

The patient that commit suicide was Tony girlfriend Gloria!!

[@patgogan7324]

This was long before he met gloria

[@milne1985]

Why is everything always Tony's fault? She knew exactly what he was all about when she took him on as a patient. She needs to take some responsibility for where she's at. Typical woman. Selfish, projecting behaviour.
