by the way, this episode ("I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano") is filled with out-of-character moments and leaps of logic made by them. Melfi basically giving diagnosis on someone she only knows through Tony's words and flat out telling him his mother tried to have him killed are the worst.

plus, the tapes the FBI plays to Tony are either a plot hole OR the feds edited them, putting some lines in a different context to make it sound like Livia was pushing Junior to kill Tony. OR even it was just an editing choice to sum up the season-long feud as quickly as possible so that they could cover everything else in the episode.
