Wow! what an episode.
From the first episode of the season, the show has painted Nucky as power-hungry, well positioned and even invincible. 'Till this episode, the writers made us believe that Nucky's reign over Atlantic city was resolute. But soon after Gyp, the mercurial and ruthless Sicilian, and his army step a foot to Atlantic city, the town turns into a shambles.
For the first time Nucky has his back to the wall and has been forced to rely on someone besides his usual entourage. Yes, I am talking about Chalky White (the underdog! remember Nucky's refusal). Chalky has an essential pivotal role on this episode, with which he does wonders.
But the most memorable scene in it for me was of course the ending. When all is lost the rising star of Chicago comes to town to save the day!
Can't wait to see the season finale.
