With the women's clinic closing, Owen dying, and Nucky inevitably finding out about her extra-martial affair (if he didn't know already), I wonder if Margaret's days are *finally* numbered.

I'm not suggesting she gets killed off but I'd imagine they'd send her character off to the great unknown.

Also, as an aside, was Owen blind? Katy is much better looking than Margaret.

Margaret isn't going anywhere.

She is the #2 character in the show. She is the Carmella Soprano of BE. I was wondering why they kept making a big deal out of the relationship with her and the doctor. Maybe now we know why...she will ask him to give her an abortion??

I doubt she will abort Slater's child.

However, if Margaret knew that it was Owen's then Nucky must know that it's not his child, so who knows.

I think you still may see Margaret run off, but without Owen, I doubt it lasts for long or happens at all.
I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

That was a great episode.

The only real issue is that the premise of the episode was that Nucky was in great danger and I knew he would be fine. But that's the nature of the show.

Thats true, but I did feel like Chalky was in danger, and certainly that Eddie might die. I was also concerned that Chalkys men might betray him and Nucky.

The last few episodes have been superb. It was great to have Chalky play a prominent part in this episode. His lines are great, "General Custer..." "I could go down the road with you a might further..." How do I address you? "You're doing it."

Capone's arrival at the end made me laugh, I have loved watching his development. Nucky is going to owe him big time.

Can't wait for Harrow to unload next week. Gillian is such a terrible person.

I was pretty sure that Chalky would be fine and that his men wouldn't betray him. I did find myself thinking that if I were in their shoes, I very well may have taken Gyp up on his offer, but I knew they wouldn't.

Yeah, I thought that Eddie may die, but that's not that big of a deal to me.

I'm not as into the Harrow character as some on here are, but I do think the payoff for following his character through these sub-plots will be very strong.

Agreed. I had not been really enjoying the season. The last few episodes have reminded of why I watch the show.

I have liked it more than you but I would say this has been the worst season...too much time spent on Jillian and Margaret for me.

But yea, the last several episodes have been great.

I agree, and think it's pretty likely.

Hot damn... Al freakin' Capone!!! That's great work out of you Eli!

This is the best season for the show thus far, IMO.

I've always been a fan of Stephen Graham. He's had mostly insignificant roles, but has been in movies like Snatch and Gangs of New York. It's very cool to see him do such a great job as Al Capone, IMO.

He was great in Public Enemies, too. Basically played the same role as he does now, just more bloodthirsty.

I love Gyp. I love Canavale.

I know his character is meant to die but I hope they can keep him around a little longer.

Yeah Gyp is great but he's definitely getting iced next episode. I imagine it will be an absolutely epic death scene, though. No off camera death like Owen or accepting it like Jimmy.

Its funny to see him in these roles...and then what he was on the last Pirates of the Caribbean movie.
