2.7 Plot to Knock Off Nucky? ***

Any so called plot to knock off Nucky Thompson is absolutely ludicrous. Where would the series head to if that ever came to be? Jimmy is really coming into his own as a wonderful character actor. He really has the part down to a beat.

Kelly McDonald never fails to amaze me as Mrs. Schroeder. Now, she has taken up with the bodyguard. This gal wants a piece of the action. Did she go all the way due to her rejection by her brother in Brooklyn?

That lord-fearing bum of an agent is now stuck with a screaming baby-girl. Hope he gets what's coming to him. He reminds me of Elmer Gantry with his holier than thou attitude, but a real lady's man as well. Haven't forgotten the life he took in an earlier episode.
