remember that Eli told Nucky he knew who was going to testify against but never actually said who, that may be something to keep in mind when it comes to the AG and his cronies

also, that bitch was going to town on the AG's junk

I'm a little naive when it comes to scalpings as I have no experience with them, but does that kill you or just mess you up beyond repair?
Given how vascular the head is, I would expect you'd bleed to death, particularly at that point in history.

That's one sharp knife to sheer through the skull.

Solid episode. The Irishman seems to be looking out for his own... he'll get ran off by Nuckey. Jimmy sending the message, Indian style, that he's a force. I want to see how you cover up making the Mayor of AC push up daisy's.

Was that the mayor that Eli killed? I thought it was somebody else.

You're right. I just thought I heard Eli's helper say something like, "you killed mayor what's his name?" My bad. It was the dude that got clubbed in the head on the boardwalk.

Eli sarcastically said "It's Mary Pickford", a popular actress of the day.

I don't think he saw him. I just think from questioning him he sorta knew suicide was about to happen.

This.

Mary Pickford was considered the most popular woman in the world at the time. The mayor of AC is Mayor Bader. Eli killed ward boss O'Neil

best EP of the season. don't worry about promintown -- if it's not blindly supporting LSU, he doesn't know what the frick he's talking about

everything harrow was awesome. think the camping scene kind of symbolized his army days and him returning to normalcy in that setting. so glad he didn't off himself and jimmy gave him some love at the end. after the pep talk harrow has his head on straight and is as ruthless as ever with the scalping. BRAVO BROTHER

maid was STAAACCCKKKKKKEEEDDDDD

loved the nucky/eli fight. it wasn't overly violent but thought it depicted how two brothers would go at it to a T.

if the driveman sees anyone offing themself its eli....dudes in huge debt, no one to turn to and has 8 kids and a wife he has to support. he just got into a brawl with his bro and snapped and killed one of his associates. he's fricked

really see this season ending with nucky in jail and jimmy officially taking control of AC. he gave his first public address tonight.
