Some thoughts about AJ . . . .
Some AJ thoughts to bolster my previous predictions that he will kill Tony and be the new boss. AJ is on drugs that suppress his emotions—remember “comfortably numb.’’ Look how quickly he forgot the love of his life. I don’t understand why people have written he is repulsed by the college friends behavior. He embraces it. He did his bit with the toe searing. Didn’t he throw the bike in the way of the SUV. He is non-communicative with his shrink, a little like Tony in the beginning with Melfi. His college friends are his future crew, the captains of the crew that will replace Silvio, Paulie and the rest of the dinosaurs. They are just waiting for the strong and silent Anthony Soprano Jr to make his move. He appears strong and silent because of his use of anti-depressants and therapy, like Tony, but to his peers that is normal, unlike Tony. Maybe he and his crew will kill Phil, that will certainly cement his place as the next in line. AJ is simply going to embrace his destiny—remember John Gotti Jr. AJ is young, restless, full of energy, disenchanted and the heir to two generations of sociopaths. He is also a blank slate with currently a complete disconnect with his humanity and emotions.
