Dreamer | Tony Soprano |
Character(s) | Tony Jean Cusamano |
The Jeannie Cusamano Erotic Dream is a dream described in The Sopranos episode 1x13 - I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano.
Dream Synopsis
Tony tells Dr. Melfi of this dream when he comes to warn her about the danger to her life. All he says of it is that it is a sex dream and:
- I'm doin' it doggie-style, and I finish, and her big ass....
Analysis
Although there is very little evidence to go on, Dr. Melfi has suggested previous erotic dreams of Tony's (such as The Melfi Erotic Dreams) have expressed Tony's desire for a nurturing Italian female presence to replace the lack of compassion he finds in his daughter Meadow, his wife Carmela and most especially his mother Livia. It is therefore noteworthy that Tony has this dream after learning his mother was involved in an attempt on his life.
Tony's reference to Jean's "big ass" is also of note to Melfi, who says Jean is "quite slender." This may suggest Tony is morphing Jean's real physicality to more closely resemble other Italian women he knows, or it may suggest he is lying about the subject of his dream. As he has previously fantasized about Melfi herself, he may be substituting Jean for Melfi.
