  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : What's it about for you?

  Tony Soprano : In my day a boy and a girl went on a date and your father hoped you wouldn't get too far or else you'd get the girl knocked up and her parents would come over and break your legs

  Dr. Jennifer Melfi : [Sensing he feels uncomfortable]  Maybe we should stop
