Well, that was fun. Other than the 2 scenes with Margaret, awesomeness. I guess it's too much to hope she'll just go away.

I read an interview with Terance Winter (the show's creator) last night and he said that she will still be around. At least her and Nucky are not together, Owen is gone, baby is gone, so hopefully we see very little of her.

Really enjoyed last night. Love how Nucky played the hand he was dealt and handled Gyp, Rothstein, and Masseria. I am guessing that season 4 will revolve around Rothstein and Masseria and Nucky's tense relationship with them. I can also see the feds going after Margeret to get to Nucky. Why else would they keep her around?

So where's nucky going? Pretty obvious he's leaving AC.

I don't think he is leaving AC at all. He will remain there, but not be the giant public figure that he once was (living at the Ritz, showing up at everything, etc). He is just going to be a gangster.

Spoiler:

I thought the last scene sealed his departure. No matter what, he's recognized. The guy coming up to him saying "hey, arent you nucky thompson".. he stood and stared at the ocean for a while. To me, it said he's leaving AC. Perhaps now he'll end up in West Overton? Doubtful.. But I just don't see how he can stay in AC with those final scenes.

i assumed that scene was just the transition of nucky from flowering wearing, public relationy, socialite/part-time corrupt politico nucky thompson into the all-black, sharp-eyed gangster nucky. i didnt see it in any way hint at where he would set up shop.

Is there any word if next season will be the final one?

[canaan]

i hope not.

I hate having to wait 40 weeks for a new season.
