I agree with you, I think it was meant as a foreshadowing. Also, The Godfather II was Tony's favorite movie of the Godfather trilogy, but that scene he and AJ discussed was his favorite scene from the trilogy. Or at least his favorite scene from the first movie.

I would say his condition is an outgrowth of PTSD he suffered growing up as the only son of Johnny Boy and Livia Soprano and all that entails, and he might be like a borderline schizophrenic as a result of that. But like yourself, I'm not a professional, just well versed enough to know sociopathy is far too, as you

That scene with Tony and AJ, after Zellman got AJ released from jail, was the best scene of this episode, and one of the best of the whole series, certainly of this season.

I never did buy the sociopath bullshit. Tony's love for AJ and Meadow put the lie to that. A true sociopath doesn't care about anybody but themselves and their own needs. And yes, that includes their own children.

Actually, you could also call Nuevo Vesuvio a kind of "Luxury Lounge". A place where people go to enjoy the fine dining in the greatest Italian culinary tradition. But at the end of the day, its just an illusion that turns to shit. For Artie the owner, who devoted his entire life to fostering the illusion, it almost

Artie also made the mistake of wearing an earring when he confronted the Frenchman.

@Sam That's true. Same with Carlo. He was already boss of the old Altieri crew, then Tony makes him head of the Aprille crew. It was evidently too much for him, at least for awhile. Paulie was underboss as of, I think, episode five of season two. Yet, I think he also remained the capo of Tony's old crew. And notice

Murmur was not a made member, but he was a trusted associate. The next time you get a chance to watch Luxury Lounge, watch carefully and you'll see toward the end of the episode, he makes collections from the Jewish hotel (Teitleman's) the Sopranos controlled since episode three of season one. Once he makes his

They didn't want to slight anybody that had been around for awhile by favoring one over all the others for such an important hit as on Phil Leotardo, is how I took that, so they invented a totally new character just for that purpose.

I see it as coming down to a war for control of North Jersey, probably between somebody like Patsy and Albert, with maybe somebody like the old guy from NY (in the last episode) trying to work something out for everybody's good. I just can't see Paulie as boss of the family, and Tony putting him in charge of the

Being aware they were going to see Kingsley to convince him to star in their movie, it makes sense that Chris and Carmine both would have made sure they knew as much about him as possible ahead of time.
