Alice,Did anyone watch last night's episode? (Dec. 4th)
I've loved the show since the beginning but last night's show really brought home to me one of the things that resonates to people and why we watch some of these crime shows. I think we're all fascinated by moral ambiguity and the ways that people will lie to themselves.
Margaret Schroeder has been perfectly fine with letting Nucky support her and her children - even after she figured out what happened to her husband and had a fling with the hired help. Now that her daughter is afflicted with polio, suddenly she develops a conscience!!!! And let's not even try to understand what's going on in Agent Van Alden's mind - there are so many mixed messages in there.
It's ironic that to me one of the most moral characters in the show is Nucky - as he stated in last season - "Everyone has to figure out how much sin they can live with".
Anyway, just wanted to chat with other people who enjoy the show.

Look for Gillian to take a bigger role in running things as Jimmy becomes more dependent
There is no question that Lucy is a defective personality. But if Nucky is forced to avoid imprisonment by disappearing wouldn't you agree that because he has no illusions about Lucy she would be a perfectly suitable companion for him? After all, she was loyal to him while she was his bimbo but he threw her over for Margaret -- who is turning out to be far less ethical than poor Lucy was.i don't think that could happen, on account of her being a scumbag who abandoned her child... a woman who could do that is lower than a gutter rat, or a cockroach, and there is a special place in hell for people like that[...]

Lucy is the kind of babe who would be good if she's treated right. We've already seen that.
I fully understand and appreciate your feelings. My perception is Margaret and Nucky are not compatible and their incompatibility seems about to produce disastrous consequences. But Lucy and Nucky fit together with a click. Lucy is a whore, she knows it and she is content to be one man's bimbo. Nucky's mistake is believing he could step in and out of his reality by adopting a more cultured and intelligent woman like Margaret.There is no question that Lucy is a defective personality.

Oh no no no. Everytime she came on, I fast forwarded through. Love Margaret, hate Lucy.
