I don't see why AJ could not do the night club - union job thing. That seemed like something he would be good at.

I don't think there's any way they can turn AJ into a credible, effective gangster in that short a time. The guy has been a thoroughgoing pussy for the entire run of the show. He's going to get killed or nabbed in the act of a crime and spill his guts when the cops scare him.

burun, that's a good take on it. Adds up to the same thing for poor JT, of course. I just think it's telling that the words "You're in the Mafia" were the final ones he spoke.

I saw it as him killing the writer because he couldn't keep his mouth shut. I think he realized it was very easy to talk to him, because he felt comfortable because of a shared experience - AA - and perhaps he had to rid himself of this easy confessional.

Wow, I hadn't even considered that...interesting take. Where's his current sponser though? The guy he was talking to in the diner a couple of weeks ago, the guy from Last Exit to Brooklyn...I was wondering why Chris didn't go to that guy instead of the writer...

Chris still has delusions of artistic grandeur. Maybe he thought JT would be a more sympathetic, sensitive ear...

I love that fucking .gif. That was the funniest scene of the show, his face behind the wheel was priceless.

Hey, where'd it go?

i've still gottit...can't stop staring attit

So apparently Tony's gambling problem went away?

Yeah, the abruptness of that is still bugging me. It was a bit of uncharacteristically hamhanded writing.
