>Aye but as I've missed the episode it doesn't matter if you tell me the circumstances under which he did it (unless this is not revealed until later). I mean Junior's been going ga-ga for a few seasons now. My granddma went, and my wife's mum is going senile, and I know the symptoms of dementia often involve mistaking members of their own family for people in their past.


The issue in this case is whether Junior has Alzheimer's or if it's an act. In typical Sopranos fashion, there are hints in both directions.
