Yeah, I think I'd edit that for the folks who don't know.

As far as Nucky, I think he's definitely caught somewhere between feeling the regret for killing Jimmy/having a heart so to speak and having to run a business that's about to get real bloody. He's constantly having to validate his gangster-ness to others, like he did tonight, because of the doubt there.

I have a feeling at some point that line he keeps crossing to prove himself is going to dissipate.

..Please do. I know a lot of this show is based on history, but I've purposely avoided brushing up on the details because I'd rather not spoil the show.

Anyway, great episode.
I enjoyed the previous dialogue between Nucky & Rothstein, so I hate to see Rothstein do business w/Gyp.
...but like the guy talking to Luciano said, "with Jews, it's just business." Seems like a little parallel that Rothstein would simply enter into a deal with Gyp b/c it makes business sense, without any concern for his prior relationship with Nucky.

Harrow's scene with Nucky may be setting the stage for Harrow's [potential] role in a war against Gyp.
Owen, Harrow, and Eli could all be important to Nucky if a war breaks out.
