NUCKY IS NOT MUTHAFUCKIN' PLAYING THIS SEASON!!!!

First off, as Eli said in episode 1, why is Mickey Doyle still alive? I can't wait to see how Nucky is going to deal with that dumbass, FINALLY.

Damn, got to give it to Rosetti, he's a sneaky asshole. He actually came off quite clever last night. Oh snap, the shit is going down.

Looks like Eli is going to regain Nucky's trust and respect, well at least some of it.

...And dang, what was Micky thinking about questioning Nucky RIGHT IN FRONT OF all the men? And asking Owen for guidance? To be honest, I thought Nuck was going to put a bullet in Mickey's brain right then and there. But later as we see, Nucky showed Owen, well reminded him rather, who the fuck is BOSS. AND THIS IS WHY I LOVE THIS FUCKING SHOW!!!! I knew the whole time that Nucky wasn't going to let that kid get away with stealing his shit. How in the world did Owen think that Nucky was going to let the kid go. Umm no sir.

I read somewhere that Richard is going to end up working for Nucky...if that's true, oh lawd, Nucky won't have to worry about NOTHING.

So how is Nucky going to fix the situation with Rothstein and the shipment? Enter Chalky White. I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL NEXT WEEK!!!!!

1. Boardwalk Empire has similarities in tone, theme and tempo with The Sopranos. But Enoch Thompson is no Tony Soprano. He became Full Gangster last season, with no regrets.

2. The way he dealt with the kid was inevitable. He noticed things about his demeanor (sleeping through the night was really suspicious), the little put-ons (about being 16 when he was 19, about not smoking when he was a smoker), etc. The actor who portrayed that kid did a heck of a job.

3. Al Capone is the Tony Soprano of the series. He was taking his frustration with his son's bullying out on his rival's man. The scene with hsi son was really powerful.

4. Loved Luciano's scenes.

5. Eli, like Capone, is changing for the "better" (as "better" can get for gangsters).

6. Doyle bends with the breeze. He's a survivor, not as dumb as others think he is or as smart as HE thinks he is. But when he does go, oh boy, will it ever be nasty.

7. Richard and Chalky are going to change the balance of the season. Though I'd watch my back if I were Chalky.

I enjoyed last night's episode very much!

I am wondering about where Nucky & Owen are headed.

I feel like Owen's about to betray Nucky.
When Nucky asked him about loyalty, he said, "You pay me."

In other words, if someone pays him more, his loyalty would shift.

Margaret:

She WAS that woman... and she let Margaret know it, too.

Can't wait to see Chalky next week!

Hell yes.

I loved this scene as well, as violent as it was. Though you do know that as vicious as Al can be, they were showing how he can be sensitive and human as well with his feelings towards his son. I loved it.

4. Loved Luciano's scenes.

Yup

6. Doyle bends with the breeze. He's a survivor, not as dumb as others think he is or as smart as HE thinks he is. But when he does go, oh boy, will it ever be nasty.

When it comes to Doyle, I really don't see where he's ever been in smart in any situation. As in this past episode, he had a real chance to make a name for himself but instead he got lazy and did exactly what he shouldn't had done...now he'll have to pay the consequences.

7. Richard and Chalky are going to change the balance of the season. Though I'd watch my back if I were Chalky.

Oh don't worry, Chalky ain't stupid and he definitely doesn't trust anyone.

I get so disgusted with HBO's mini series. I lose track of a season and then try to catch up with Comcast on demand and they only offer part of the second season, and I missed the marathon showing of the first season. I know I can catch most episodes online, but I hate having to sit in front of my computer monitor to watch. I would usually just buy the dvds for each season, but that shit gets very expesive. I'll just have to catch up via cocmputer then. Damn!
