Amy works for Jon Favreau and they are filming in New York. She has been eager to meet Christopher and read his screenplay, saying that mob-themed stories are popular. She quickly becomes attracted to him. Adriana  has kept a copy of the screenplay Christopher threw away and persuades him to pass it to Jon and Amy. Christopher and Adriana are invited to the film set, but he goes alone. He is absorbed by what he sees and makes a dialogue suggestion that Jon adopts. Jon wants to learn about mob customs and speech from Chris. Chris comes as arranged to meet him at his hotel room but he is not available, so Chris calls on Amy instead. They talk, she begins to give advice about writing a screenplay, and they end up having sex. A few  days later he sees her in the hotel lobby and they go to her room to have sex again, but afterwards she is overcome by guilt. Chris finds a screenplay by Jon and sees that Jon has stolen a mob anecdote that Chris told him in confidence. Furious, Chris searches for him, but he has returned to California. In the following days, Amy does not reply to his messages. He finally tracks her down; she tells him that Hollywood has lost interest in mob films, and "It was wrong, with us." After a heated argument, she walks away. A.J. takes  his mother's car without permission and damages it. When his parents rebuke him he baffles them by stating that life is absurd, and he does not wish to be confirmed because 'God is dead'. Tony consults Pussy, who is A.J.'s godfather and confirmation sponsor; Pussy says that at that age "they get broody." Tony consults Dr. Melfi, who explains that A.J. has discovered existentialism. A.J. consults his grandmother, who tells him not to expect happiness; everyone dies alone; "It's all a big nothing." Pussy is forced by the FBI to wear a wire at A.J.'s confirmation  and the ensuing reception at the Soprano home. During the reception, Tony discovers A.J. and two friends smoking marijuana in the garage. Pussy goes up to A.J.'s room, where he is sulking, and gently tells him that his father is a good man; A.J. is young and should enjoy life. He hugs him and sends him back down to the party, but Pussy himself goes into the bathroom and sobs. Adriana has inadvertently told Tony about Chris' screenplay-writing. Chris misses the confirmation ceremony and arrives late for the reception. Tony then tells him he has a choice: either  follow his other interests (and never see him again), or completely commit himself to Tony. Chris goes out and thinks it over, then goes back inside to Tony. Title reference. The episode's title is a shortened title for "development girl", used mostly in the film and television industry; Chris calls Amy one. Filming locations. Listed in order of first appearance:
