Sorry I'm late on this guys...but you can go ahead and post your thoughts below. I didn't get a chance to catch it last night but will be watching when I get off from work today.

Okay so I watched the episode today...I don't think I have that much to say. More questions than anything.

So where was Billie all that time when Nucky was blowing up her phone? With another suitor? Or perhaps with Arnold Rothstein?

The scene where Richard refuses to let Doyle's ass take credit for killing Manny was hilarious!!! You don't fuck with Richard! And you better not try to take credit FOR HIS WORK DAMMIT!!

So where does this leave Richard with Nucky? Is he going to work for Nucky now? Or better yet, continue working for Gillian and become a spy for Nucky?

That Margaret is a smooth bitch, I have to give it to her. She knows how to get what she wants.

And Rosetti...my goodness. You really got to walk around him like eggshells.

Rosetti's character is hard for me to get into.....I can't stop waiting for Nurse Jackie to come around the corner and fuck with him.

I know right. It's like he plays dumb to see if you are going to out smart him or something and when the person does, then he gets offended and goes ballistic. People who encounter him nearly don't have a chance. It's like damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Did you guys notice that scene where Rosetti asked Gillian who runs her Ho house. She led Rosetti to believe that Jimmy Darmity was still running the show. She said Jimmy was sill on the Deed or something???Then later on in the show...They showed a flashback of Nucky and Jimmy together....it looked like a scene that I've never seen before. so it wasn't like the were playing back an old scene from another episode. Nucky has been having a lot of dreams lately. I have a feeling that Jimmy Darmity is coming back from the Dead. In other words I bet the scene were Nucky killed him may have been just a dream....LOL. Jimmy seemed to be too big of a character to kill off on the show. He seemed to have a big following with fans.

Naw Jimmy is definitely dead and gone. His memory and use in the show popping up in Nucky's dreams, I interpreted as Nucky having epiphanies of certain things Jimmy told him in the past that he just didn't pay attention too. Now especially that Jimmy is dead from the bullet of Nucky's gun, Nucky is, I believe is having a hard time dealing with it (why else would he had asked Richard if he thought about the people he killed?)...which all rings back to what Jimmy was telling him right before Nucky shot him. It seems that the "political Nucky" died when he killed Jimmy. Now Nucky is reborn as a "full circle gangster"...remember when Jimmy used to tell Nucky "You can't be half a gangster?"

nucky is definitely feeling guilty. He definitely don't wanna fuck with richard. Damn richard said he killed 63 people.

Jimmy is definitely gone unfortunately. I think Gillian either is in denial or just wants everyone to think Jimmy is coming back. This is during an era when women really didn't own much especially their own businesses; so, a man's name had to be somewhere on the top of the deed....main reason why Margaret put Nucky's name on the paperwork signing over all that land to the church even though Nucky had put the land under her name when they were married. Nucky is just freaking out because he feels guilty. He always said Jimmy was like his son...he did raise him since he was a boy. Plus, Nucky asked Richard if he was gonna come after him and his family after Richard admitted to Nucky that he killed Manny. I really love me some Richard and loved his response to Nucky's question about how he killed Manny because he killed Angela Darmandy but Jimmy was a soldier so he knew he was in a battle where he could lose his life at any point. That's why Richard isn't afraid of anyone...because death has already visited him in his life. If a man doesn't fear death, he definitely isn't going to fear a mortal man and that's Richard. I really wanted him to kill that weasel Mickey. I can't stand his ass.

As 4 the rest of the episode:

Rosetti is nuts! I swear if you said 'Hi' to that man with a giggle afterward he'd think you were making fun of him and he'd put a bullet between your eyes. I have a love/hate relationship with him at this point. Gillian better think twice before teaming with him.

I have a love/hate relationship with Margaret too. I had to give her much kudos this week for being all about women being educated and empowered. But, next week, she'll probably do something to piss me off and make me hate her ass again.

Nucky and the call girl Really Nucky, really? What does he see in this chick; can someone please let me know why he's being such a gullible wuss for this broad? I really don't feel sorry for his little nightmares of shooting young boys because he brought that on himself. A guilty conscience must really suck.

Go head Van Aldean! Get you some from your lady. Sucks he almost got recognized in the speakeasy. I think he's gonna go to the darkside very soon.

Next week should be good.

^^^The reason why Nucky is hung up on this call girl is because he really doesn't want to be alone. There were some scenes in this episode where even though he and Margaret are separated, he still seeks her guidance, which oddly enough, still puts her at #1 in his life. Nucky could always just get a new girl to replace the call girl, but I guess there's just something about Billie that he likes.

It's sad though because he has two small children who actually adore him and even call him 'daddy'. Nucky seems like such a lost soul sometimes it's kinda sad. I think them putting Steve Bushemi in the role was one of the best casting decisions I've ever seen in TV or Film. He's just soo good as Nucky.
