I've always loved that scene with Artie cooking at the end. After all the chaos, with the low point punching an elderly woman, it's nice to have a good ending. With the Sopranos it doesn't happen much! Ben Kingsley made a wise choice not doing Cleaver although I'm of the opinion the South Beach Strumpets subspecies would have been more up his alley. I love this episode. Ben Kingsley is an absolute legend! Very interesting to see how much Chris grovels when his mob powers are pretty useless when dealing with Celebs in L. A. in the end they resort to robbing Lauren Bacall as an act of petty revenge at the end. Artie really is one of my favorite characters. He represents the part of all of us that can feel bogged down in life and want more even if the things we want won't make us happy. It's a beautiful little scene for him to reignite his passion and find happiness doing the thing he was born to do.
