Paulie, who is in charge of organizing the local festival for St. Elzear, has an argument with the local priest over how much of cut the church will be taking. When Paulie refuses the father's demands, he is told that they will not be able to use the church's golden hat traditionally worn by the statue of St. Elzear during the festival. Later, the conspicuous absence of the hat is noted by many, and when a children's ride collapses because of shoddy maintenance fingers are pointed at Paulie for putting the kids in danger for his own profit. In addition to this, Paulie learns that he may have cancer. Chris, meanwhile, learns that his girlfriend is pregnant, and immediately proposes to her. His bachelor party, however, gets out of hand as Chris once more begins shooting heroin. At the same time, Adriana's mother throws around accusations that Chris murdered her daughter. Tony does his best to convince Carmela of Chris' innocence, but Adriana is still nowhere to be found.
