    eli's son and his nerdy friend were they just trying to embarrass the frat bully? wonder if the final result was unintentional or did they mean for it to kill him?

    that was crazy when capone grabbed his tommy gun and unloaded on that man that was in back of the bread truck....and the look of Van Alden's face :shock:


    ut oh eddie...looks like he let his 'new position' go to his head




    personally I really dig that they're talking about and showing the knife and fork. I had no idea that back in the 20's it was a gentlemen's club, :wtf: that also served food before it was a public restaurant. in the late 40's and in the 50's my mom was a waitress there. tho it's not where they met she worked there when she and my dad met. she used to tell me about some of the famous peeps she waited on there. damn, wish I could ask her about Nucky.

    holy sweet cheesus...so glad I found out it wasn't still a cathouse when she worked there :lol::lol:

    i wonder what is gonna happen with nucky's driver and the capones. i think his loyalty to both of them is going to be questioned and he is eventually going to come to a bad end...

    dr narcisse is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters.

    no harrow this week.

    still no margaret..

    van alden has made the complete transformation from upstanding, righteous law man to criminal. prime example of you have to do what you have to do to survive.

    all good points listed here.
    i would add:

    -i'm still trying to decipher which character I dislike more;
    dr narcisse or dunn purnsley himself.
    don't fuck with chalky white !
    ( whos infatuated with that singer girl daughter)

    -what the fuck is up with Arnold Rothstein? Nervous breakdown much?
    Who knew Myer Lansky had it in his little diminutive self?

    -had to laugh at Capone
    doing the bumps in the car and trying to feed it to Van Alden.

    glad they signed for another season.

    :corn:

    capone is by far the best character in the show. seeing him walking toward the camera shooting off his tommy gun with that big smile on his face was priceless.

    Really enjoying this season so far.

    I had a feeling Eli's son was going to poison his school mate.

    Van Alden out with the Capone Bros was funny.

    what a bummer episode

    i'd guessed from when they showed Nucky and his nephew talking to the investagators about poisoning the frat bully that they'd end up throwing the nerdy kid under the bus

    that they featured van alden so prominently in the scence where frank capone was killed....i wasn't expecting to see that :shock:

    tho I pretty much knew it was going to end that way the second eddie gave nucky up... eddie seemed so loyal and likeable ...it's still sad :(

    yeah I saw those concrete pylons. it made the scene confusing to me...not sure if boardwalks had that sort of pylons back in the 20's?

    Man, Gillian is a hot mess.

    Al Capone is slowly turning into the monster he will become.

    That was a top three most depressing episode for me. Poor Eddie. A loyal soldier and flawed but good man. Hated to see him off himself but saw it coming as soon as the feds picked him up. Like another said, now that his brother is gone, you see the last remaining bit of humanity fading from Al. Van Alden is screwed. Gillian, oh Gillian. And Nucky's nephew gets away with murder and Millhouse gets framed.

    Really liking this season so far. The only thing that sucks is certain weeks they just skip over entire storylines....there was nothing at all with Chalky or Dr Narcisse this past week.

    They are where many of will be in 9 days-- in Brooklyn.

    They space out the storylines, too many characters to cover week to week.

    This weeeks episode was directed by Van Patten . His episodes are usually very good ones.

    yes, it's about time...Margaret has the heart that the show's been missing thus far this season

    also looks like Harrow's coming back to AC

    i want to see more of Patricia Arquette..
    also, these last couple of episodes make me wonder why we ever needed Gyp Rosseti when we've had Al Capone all along..

    there's only so much dramatic license they can take with al capone or any of the 'real' historical characters.

    imo, they did a hellava job portraying how frank capone was killed. altho undoubtedly the way they worked van alden's character into the story of what really happened made it even more impressive
