I was surprised by the apparent complete 180 in AJ this week. Where do you think they're going with him now?

He's got severe depression, just like his Dad. The power and the violence were brief antidote to the depression, but he's still got enough humanity left to see that the beating of the biker was wrong, and to question the necessity of all the violence.
Could he question the validity of his father's lifestyle?
As evidenced by AJ's inept attempt on Junior's life, he doesn't exactly think things through. Could AJ do something really dumb?
hmmmm
