Ok that intrigued me so I looked at the scene… There is some resemblance, especially when we consider that the man would have aged 6 years by the time of the series finale. How he goes about it in future episodes may be questionable, from most of our perspectives. Ron, would you consider doing a Mad Men autopsy after your finished with the Sopranos? We’ve seen some characters make an effort to reinvent or reshape themselves, only to be derailed by some fateful event or by their own inner conflicts.

Aside from Meadow, who phones in her yuletide greetings from California, the holidays bring everyone together and the growing Soprano/DeAngelis/Moltisanti/Baccalieri clan takes their positions on couches and carpet in front of the immaculately decorated tree in the Soprano living room, sitting as silent as the night Frank Sinatra describes on the soundtrack. The two gaze at each other with long, serious looks as they debate whether or not to use Valerian tea to treat Julianna’s cough, and then the scene strangely fades to black: I understood that Chris and Julianna were taking the decision to use Valerian seriously, because the stuff contains a form of opiate.
