did nucky and owen think it was really gonna be that easy to kill masseria tho? hes the most feared and powerful boss on the northeast, i mean they told every crime boss in the area of their motives. they just seemed real hunky dory about it, they thought they bout that life, but once nuck opened that box
would be better off just having harrow snipe him out like in season one.
Honestly, it wasn't a bad plan, and it would've worked, but it was just some bad luck with Lucky and Meyer needing money for that heroine combined with AR being scared into doing nothing 'til the dust settles.
However, the underlined was very, very dumb.
People are acting like Luchiano and Lansky didn't sell him out. The plan was fine, it fell apart due to circumstances outside of his control.
I don't understand why Nucky is getting down on a street level with these people. He could've just sent Ms. Randolph and a few Fed goons down there and kicked Gyp out of Tabor Heights. Joe Masseria ain't gonna back him going to war against the U.S. government.
But if Nucky did that then there's no street war so
Fred.
I agree the plan was fine if he just did it from the get, but after telling all the other major players in the business his intentions, he should've known better.
As far as the gov't, he doesn't have those guys wrapped around his fingers like that, what show are you watching?
I also agree with the sentiment that Gyp's crew is gonna turn on him. Not just the guy who's cuz he killed, but I think everyone is sick of the awkward unnecessary tension that Gyp brings at the smallest shyt. Most likely they've all been through it at some point working for him, so when the chance comes to flip on him, they will.
