After episode four, which featured a disturbing topic and one scene in particular that is hard to watch, this is another very dark moment. It is incredible - and something The Sopranos does best - when the writers construct these mini arcs within one single episode, and Tracey's demise is a prime example. Paralleling Meadow's story of university romance and breakup - a youthful folly - is the tale of a similarly-aged stripper, a mother to a neglected child and herself completely immature and taken advantage of. Another tough one to watch at certain moments, but incredibly insightful.
