* FromNobodyToNightmare: The episode makes this kind of statement about Tony. We see in his [[{{Flashback}} Flashbacks]] that he was a little kid nobody would be even remotely scared of. Even his own family, including his own sister, frequently treat him with contempt. And we know nowadays that he's a hulking behemoth of a man, and one who is TheDreaded [[TheDon Mob boss]] of New Jersey.

* {{Leitmotif}}: "White Rabbit" by ''Music/JeffersonAirplane'' plays more than once over the course of the episode. The song itself came out in ''Main/TheSixties'' when Tony's childhood took place. Grace Slick also said the song's multiple references to characters from ''Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland'' is a musing on why parents would expose their children to certain kinds of information (like the Alice novel) and then wonder why their kids became screwed up afterwards. It overlaps with Tony's reflections on [[LikeFatherLikeSon following in Johnny Boy's steps]], wondering how much A.J. knows about him being a mobster, and wondering what A.J. finding out about Tony being a mobster will mean for A.J.'s future.

The fact that Rocco eventually became a legitimate billionaire haunts Tony and adds to his building resentment of Livia. Had Johnny Boy made the move it's possible Tony could not only be far wealthier but also could have avoided his criminal lifestyle. At the same time, it's equally possible that even if Johnny had made the move he would have continued to be a criminal and simply gotten involved with the organized crime in Vegas.

Elsewhere, Tony arrives at a construction site, where it's revealed that the foreman hasn't been paying his union dues. He manages to resolve the situation with the help of Chris. Afterwards, he gets word from Carmela that he needs to go to the school, and arrives to find A.J. still intoxicated and the principal lecturing them about the incident. The school's psychologist, Peter Galani, goes
Livia and Junior come over to the Soprano home that night for dinner. Despite Tony trying to smooth over the situation with A.J., Livia escalates things by [[NotSoDifferent pointing out]] how Tony used to do the same antics (and more) when he was a child. A.J. acts up again and Carmela grounds him for three weeks before he storms off in anger.
Afterwards, Tony and Carmela retire for the night. He wonders aloud if A.J. knows about the family business, and she says that Meadow knows. Tony flashes back to [[Recap/TheSopranosS1E5College the college trip]], and says that they'll have to sit her down and tell her eventually. Tony also pledges to agree to psychological testing for A.J. He dreams that he's at Melfi's talking about how A.J.'s behavior is a reflection of himself before waking up and taking his Prozac. He stands in the mirror and stares at himself before flashing back to the past...
[[{{Flashback}} The year is 1967]]. A young Tony walks outside his family's home in Newark, New Jersey and sees Junior, who asks if his father, Johnny Boy, is home. While Johnny Soprano comes outside and drives off with Junior, Livia tells Tony that he's missed the bus and will need to walk with school. As Tony walks along, he is introduced to the family business after witnessing Johnny and Junior beating up a rival crew...
In the present, Tony snaps out of his daze and goes for an appointment at Melfi's. He tells her about his childhood, and implies that [[AbusiveParents his parents were abusive]]. He says that his father was well-respected in the community, but that he was involved in extortion rackets. When Melfi asks if he's told A.J. about his own work, Tony stresses that he's [[BlatantLies a legitimate businessman]], but hasn't told A.J. anything yet.
A.J. begins his psychological testing at the school, while Tony arrives home and learns from Carmela that A.J. may go into special education. The conversation turns to whether either of them is responsible for A.J.'s upgringing, and Carmela implies that it's her fault for staying with Tony. When Tony calls her out on this and says that her side of the family has a history of behavioral disorders, she storms off.
A.J. is forced to visit Livia at Green Grove as part of his punishment, and she happily greets him when she arrives. When he tells her that he's been going for psychological testing, she refuses to believe him. He then reveals that Tony is also going for counseling. She breaks down in tears after realizing that Tony is likely ranting about her to his psychiatrist.
The next day, Tony takes A.J. for a dentist's appointment, and is forced to stop when the truck gets a flat tire. Tony uses the opportunity to spend some father-son bonding time while he fixes the wheel. When Tony asks what A.J. learned in his testing session, the latter refuses to divulge specific details. [[{{Hypocrite}} Tony calls him oot on this]]. A.J. pointedly asks his father if he's in the Mafia, pointing out the [[Recap/TheSopranosS1E6PaxSoprana men taking photographs at Jackie Sr.'s funeral]]. Tony says that Jackie Sr. was "[[FromACertainPointOfView a complicated man]]" and points out that he isn't like him before they drive back.
Tony goes for another session at Melfi's, and muses aloud whether he and A.J. inherited reckless tendencies [[InTheBlood from Johnny Boy]]. Melfi brings back the subject of [[Recap/TheSopranosS1E1Pilot Tony's dream about the ducks flying away]], and asks if it had anything to do with his own family. Tony flashes back to a traumatic memory of his mother threatening to gouge his eye out with a fork when he was a child. He then recalls how [[{{Foreshadowing}} his sister, Janice]], was the favored one in the family, as he saw his father and Junior taking her to a fairground for rides and games. When the young Tony took a trip to the fairground on his own, he discovered that the fairground was a front operation for the Mafia, and witnesses a police raid that ends with one associate dead and Johnny being hauled out in handcuffs while Janice cried and pleaded for them to stop.
Back in the present, Tony tells Melfi that the mob associates brought their daughters to the fairground as a ploy. He tells her that despite everything, he was proud to be Johnny's son, but says that A.J. doesn't have to be like him.
Tony remembers another memory of Johnny and Livia getting into a fight over the former's insistence on moving to Nevada to help run a dinner club with [[ChekhovsGun the same mob associate he beat up before]], Rocco Alatore. Tony goes to Green Grove and speaks with Livia about Rocco, and asks if she remembers. She tells him that Rocco moved to Nevada and eventually became a billionaire, then claims that he should go to a psychiatrist to discuss his familial problems. Tony in turn throws her snark back at her, claiming that she's a lot more devious than she lets on.
Afterwards, Tony learns from Dr. Galani that A.J. has a borderline case of ADD. Learning from his experiences and therapy over the last few days, Tony goes back home and spends more time with his son, proving that he doesn't have to be like his own father...
!!Tropes:
* AbusiveParents: Tony is emotionally manipulated and terrorized by his difficult mother throughout his childhood and well into his adult life. One notable incident featured his mother threatening to stick a fork in his eye when he was only ten years old. Tony's father was outwardly friendly, but also a manipulative sociopath who indoctrinated his son into violent crime and the mob. It's implied that the various degrees of emotional manipulation and terror Tony suffered under his parents is what turned him into the violent sociopath that heads the New Jersey crime families.
* ContinuityNod:
** Carmela brings up the admissions trip (from "College") while thinking about whether to tell Meadow about the family's involvement in the Mafia.
** A.J. also brings up the people taking photographs at Jackie Sr.'s funeral (from "Pax Soprana") while he and his father talk about the psychiatry testing.
** Tony's dream about the ducks from the pilot episode is brought up again when Melfi ties it into Tony's fear of being neglected like he was when his father took Janice to the fairgrounds in 1967.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Tony is revealed to have had a tough upbringing, including verbal and emotional threats from his mother, nearly being beaten up by a trio of children, and witnessing gang violence and police raids in close proximity, all within the span of a couple weeks. Despite his attempts to claim otherwise to Melfi, it's made clear that his experiences helped shape the man he became.
* ExplainExplainOhCrap: During the school psychologist's speech on A.J. possibly having ADD, Tony butts in by saying that all A.J. needs is a "good smack upside the head". Once the psychiatrist explains the symptoms further and says it's akin to an illness, Tony hastily makes up an excuse to explain why he doesn't hit his children, and was just talking in a figure of speech.
* {{Flashback}}: To Tony's
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Tony's sister, Janice, is seen for the first time as a child, and acts incredibly belligerent and arrogant towards the young Tony.
* InTheBlood: Tony initially holds this opinion about his family, believing that A.J. is going to end up just like him because of his own relationship with Johnny Boy Soprano. It takes Melfi telling him that everyone has a choice in life before he sees the matter differently.
* MisterSandmanSequence: Tony's first flashback is backed by the usage of Music/JeffersonAirplane's "White Rabbit", and features plenty of [[TheSixties '60s-era]] signifiers.
* MommyIssues: It's revealed that Livia was emotionally and verbally abusive towards her son, to the point of threatening to poke his eye out with a fork and claiming (in a conversation with Johnny) that she'd rather smother her own children than let them live alone with their father.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: In the flashbacks, Johnny Boy and Junior Soprano beat up a rival mob associate, Rocco, by punching him numerous times, smashing a vase over his heads and both kicking him repeatedly as he lies on the ground.
* ReactionShot: Used to the point of becoming an OverlyLongGag. When A.J. tells Livia about how Tony's going to counseling, Livia says "He does not!" several times as it cuts back-and-forth between both of them.
* SpottingTheThread: The school psychologist lays out all of A.J.'s behavioral issues, which causes Tony to shift uncomfortably once he realizes the psychiatrist is talking just as much about him as he is his son.
* TitleDrop: Like any true Newarker of his age, Tony calls his local neighborhood "Down Neck."
* VomitIndiscretionShot: At the beginning of the episode, when AJ's friend vomits up alcohol off-screen, to the disgusted reaction of other gym students.
