Biography[]
After Dr. Jennifer Melfi finishes her work for the day talking with her clients and goes into a parking lot to her car, where she's suddenly attacked by an unknown man. Dr. Melfi manages to fight back for a bit against the assailant until he knocks her down onto a staircase while she's running away, spraining her knee in the process, and then proceeds to violently rape her before running away.
Later at the hospital, Dr. Melfi's ex-husband Richard and her son Jason visit her, outraged that this happened. While taking dirt samples from under her fingernails to test for possible evidence of the rapist's DNA, investigators inform her that soon after the rape, a man matching the description Melfi gave them named Jesus Rossi was caught at a Popeye's Chicken restaurant, and found to be in possession of her mobile device, which he says he found. However, the evidence taken from Melfi's examintion is subsequently lost, and the police are forced to release him.
Sometime later Dr. Melfi goes to eat at a Wrap Nation restaurant and notices an Employee of the Month award with her rapist's face on it, then Melfi sees him at the cashier machine and Rossi doesn't recognize her, prompting her to quickly leave. Later that night, she has a dream in which her hand gets stuck in a vending machine, and sees that Jesus standing behind her. He is then attacked by a Rottweiler who mauls him to death. When Dr. Melfi wakes up , she realizes the the Rottweiler represents her patient, mobster Tony Soprano. This is an indication that she is considering having him kill Rossi.
The next day, she has a session with Tony. He notices the bruises on her face, but she declines to tell him about the attack, insisting that she is fine. When he asks her about her knee, she lies and says she hurt it in a car accident. When she suddenly starts crying, Tony goes over to her to comfort her. After she composes herself, Tony sees her hesitant facial expression and asks if there is somethiing she wants to ask him. Melfi considers asking him to use his mob connections to kill Rossi, but ultimately decides she does not wish to throw away her years of work to lower herself to the level of a murderer, and merely replies, "No."
It is unknown what happened to Rossi after this episode, leaving his fate a mystery.
