And really, they had no reason to kill one another.

Half-face was like "look, are you buying the booze or not?". When it was clear the deal was off, his job at that point was to pack up and leave. He's just a henchman/delivery man, he doesn't give a fuck who is getting paid or not paid. If the deal is off, he goes home.

Yep. Two soldiers recognizing that there is no point in shedding blood over the bossman's money.

The fuck are you talking about? Nelson's back story has pretty much been established in the 1st season. You really didnt know shit about Chalky. You had 0 idea he had the type of clout he had until that scene. They are establishing his character making him more than a nigga that sells liquor. Something big is obviously brewing. If Nuck doesnt make shit right then Chalky may be using his pull to do it himself. Im sure that scene was very necessary not to mention very awesome.

And LOL at Nelson being the best character outside of Nuck. That fucker is a bibal thumping, sicko hypocrite.

yes exactly we got next to no back story on Chalky in the first season, hell not even back story we hardly got much of any story, we have learned more about Chalky in the first two episodes this season than we did the entire first season.

i disagree. i dont feel like we learned anything new about chaulky. I guess i can say that cause i just ran thru season 1 over the weekend and it was all fresh. nucky already used him for his political clout when it came to the mayor election. There wasnt much else to it in S2.

i thought episode 1 was pretty disappointing start. It feels like this power move by the commodore is being forced. It doesnt come across as real that all of nuckys political allies would all of a sudden jump ship like that. Whats in it for them? there was never any issue between those guys that mattered. Eli had his issue and the commodore is obviously just trying to take over power. It makes no sense for anyone to just say...yeah, we will follow you.

even jimmy...makes the least amount of sense. All of a sudden he has some loyalty to some old fucker who abandon him and he is gonna backstab the man who cared for and raised him

it could be a legit storyline....but this attempt feels rushed and lazy

1st 3 episodes

"21"
In the second-season premiere, Nucky eyes a real-estate bonanza when it comes to access to Atlantic City, but has his hands full trying to play peacemaker after Chalky has a run-in with the KKK. Meanwhile, Nelson shows his wife around town on a weekend visit; Jimmy mulls career advice from the Commodore; and Al Capone looks to expand the illegal-booze business in and around Chicago.

"Ourselves Alone"
When realizing that he might be losing control over Atlantic City, Nucky tries to figure out which one of his men betrayed him. When agents search the Treasurer's Office for evidence, Margaret tries to dig into her past to help Nucky in the present. In New York, Rothstein puts Jimmy on hold, but Meyer Lansky and Lucky Luciano still look to be business partners. Chalky faces problems in prison with inmate Dunn Purnsley, who has an ax to grind. Owen Sleater, a man working for John McGarrigle, looks at the Thompson residence. Finally, the Commodore decides to introduce Eli to the men who made Atlantic City.

"A Dangerous Maid"
The Commodore throws his weight around with the Coast Guard to disrupt the delivery of alcohol, which creates an opportunity for Owen to demonstrate his value to Nucky and a struggling casino. Meanwhile, a letter dredges up painful memories for Margaret; Nucky calls in a favor with the U.S. attorney general; Meyer and Lucky learn the price of power; and Lucy searches for ways to cure her loneliness.

Fantastic episode.

Van Alden is always entertaining, but whatsherface's character annoys the shit out of me and I was getting a little frustrated with her whining, so I was relieved to see him turn around toward the end. (and with Doyle of all people inadvertently giving him advice).

No Chalky White makes me sad, but I'll live.

Nucky's flipping over of the lobster was pretty badass and definitely gave me a chuckle. I hate the Commodore with a passion, so I'm cool with Nucky fighting back. Jimmy and Half-Face being on board with the Commodore frustrates me because they're two of my favorite characters, but he's beat.

Loved when Al Capone responded to Nucky's question of what they do with the competition - "We're killin' em" Definitely am happy to see Al Capone making an appearance in Atlantic City. Not really sure where they're going to go with him and Torio now that they've cut themselves off from Nucky. Hopefully something happens with Al in Brooklyn when he goes to bury his pops and he stays in the area.

Speaking of the city, Jimmy murdering those dudes has gotten Lucky and his boy some beef with a Chicago crime boss. Anybody know who that dude was? Have we seen him before?

I forget his name, but I think he is just a big Italian boss in NY (assuming you meant that and not Chicago). It's based on a real character according to an AV Club commenter but I forgot his name.

But yeah it was funny seeing Lucky and Meyer express confusion over the two dead wops. "Wait, what?"

Yeah, I meant NY not Chicago, my b. Still had Al Capone on my mind. So dreamy.

Caught up today. Watched all three episodes of season 2. Series remains solid.

 

[nflman2033]

Finally nucky got some balls this season about time. Great episode.

 

[CrimsonGhost56]

this last episode was definetly the best so far. the scene when nucky went up to the commodore at the restaurant was great.

 

[Maynard]

agreed. episode 3 was fap worthy

 

[RainboUnicorn]

Where are all my boardwalk empire guys at? Great episode.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

fucking masterpiece

I want to watch the entire season RIGHT NOW.

 

[BigHouseUSA]

Another excellent episode, love the balance they use for the episodes. The second this season was probably my favorite episode, including season one. There were so many of those "oh shit" moments, and three was the perfect balance. Much more of a plot/info episode, worked perfectly.

 

[BigBucs]

Great episode once again. That last scene was bittersweet. Felt bad for that mfer just because of his condition but I dont like his monkey ass and the broad had every right to be upset. Was wondering how long would it take for her to get back to that shit. She was being much to nice to him considering what she did last season.

What is the deal with Jimmy's mother? Is she trying to fuck him or what?

Pretty sure its Joe Masseria who is eventually killed and Lucky takes over and that's when we should start seeing characters such as Frank Costello, Vito Genovese etc.

 

[Archbomber]

Still hate Miss Schroeder for sending me on this emotional rollercoaster.

and Im unbelievably torn between Frank and the Irishman.

 

[BigBucs]

What is the deal with Jimmy's mother? Is she trying to fuck him or what?

Thought I was the only one thinking this. Seems to be sexual tension between mother and son (mostly coming from mother) which may lead to some sick shit later on down the line. Still remember that line about kissing his dick as a baby. :michaelscott:

 

[JrRawlins]

its defeinitely possible that his mom tries to give him that ass later on in the show, especially with the commodore in his messed up state.....

Looked like she was going to in the last episode
