By the way, I don't think Al Capone would go to jail in the finale episode because that show is set in 31 and Capone didn't go to prison until late 1932
Yea, neither do I. Looked like Al Capone was just being the celebrity gangster he was as he made his trip to AC in the preview.

well, the writting has certainly been on the wall: Luciano and Lansky run the criminal underworld and its a question of "how" not "if" Nucky Thompson loses everything. The question now becomes does he make it out alive? I believe so.
I forgot he threw Mickey off a fukking balcony :banderas:

next episode Mickey's like:

Never gave a fukk about Mickey, dude was a clown with an annoying voice...I could never take that guy seriously as a tough guy...

Nucky wa son some real fukked up shyt for pimping out little girls to a pedo...We knew he did it to Gillian but I didn't know there were others...I could never do that shyt, I'd rather be living on the streets and starving that degrade myself to that level...I'd put a bullet in that fat fakkit before feeding his demonic craving...

This season feels incredibly rushed, I wish we had more episodes...

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
After Al Capone's 1931 conviction for tax evasion and prostitution, Lansky saw that he too was vulnerable to a similar prosecution. To protect himself, he transferred the illegal earnings from his growing casino empire to a Swiss numbered bank account, where anonymity was assured by the 1934 Swiss Banking Act. Lansky eventually even bought an offshore bank in Switzerland, which he used to launder money through a network of shell and holding companies :ehh::whoo:
nikka literally started the trend of holding your money in swizz banks

my fav gangster and fav character in this series. the actor who plays him is just great.. it's how i always pictured he was. looks like a nerd type, small, unassuming, smart as fukk, but won't hesitate to kill you or have you killed in an instant...


and never even spent a day in jail.. he didn't beat cases, he didn't bail out.. he literally never even made it to the arrest and jail portion. and was the number 2 in charge :wow:
