Another thing: Eddie said he had a wife and two sons, but where did he say they were? It sounded like there was a 'strasse' in there, which would make it a German address. I wonder why they would still be in the old country? Or perhaps they died during the war. A guy his age would likely have sons about the right fit…

Agreed. I simultaneously dread and look forward to Nucky discovering Margaret got knocked up by Owen (if he does find out, of course) for that very reason. My favourite scene in the series so far is still the end of Season 1 when Nucky tells Margaret about his son and wife's death. Great actor, and, according to a…

This episode was brilliant. Putting Nucky in such an unusual Fugitive-esque situation really created a great way for the bigger thematic and emotional stuff to come out organically. Now everyone has been forced to put their cards on the table. Seeing Nucky so concerned about poor old Eddie was extremely cathartic…

Every time I read Our Idiot Brother I automatically think it's a Dostoevsky novel and wonder when Paul Rudd started branching out.

Rob Reiner looks so much like his dad, it's eerie. I looked at that picture and was like "Whoa, Alan Brady!"

I'm guessing bocce uses different balls? I knew it had a different name in Italy but I couldn't remember what it was, had to google that one. My knowledge of Mediterranean social games is embarrassingly threadbare.

Called the Owen-in-a-box as soon as Eddie mentioned the 'delivery', mostly because it felt like an homage to the ending of one of the originators of the gangster genre - 1931's The Public Enemy. I wasn't as impressed with the two other 'surprises' - the pregnancy and Rosetti clunking that guy with a spade, because…

Ha, no. Free, white and 21, as they used to say. I was 7 when Believe came out, 6 for Sex on the Beach and 4 for the Macarena - but then again I grew up in a small town, and the Macarena was solid disco currency until I was well into double digits.

The film cynic in me is rolling its eyes, but the impulse zone is beating her senseless. Sign me up to this ill-fated but soul-satisfying voyage!
