In the comics they've gone so far as to have him basically unbeatable except in his arrogance he overdoes it and turns himself into a black hole or some shit.

It's hilarious that people are carping on Skye looking "too good" when she was dressed to the nines to attend a gala rich people party as her cover, and are un-phased by Coulson wearing a suit which was genuinely ridiculous — he should never wear something like that on an extraction mission with no undercover element.

Malta is at least small enough, they are probably just thrilled to be mentioned.

Would Cavorite have been out of the question?

In defense of weird teenagers everywhere — they have to enforce the rules or they will get fired.

Thanks, much appreciated!

Yes, it was one of those situations where the audience knows less than the characters, so we might think it was Henry but later realize it was Clayton. (Anticipating that it was Clayton is not out of the question, but clearly an element of misdirection is intended).

If you're that worked up about Willie's lie, you should bear in mind that Nucky was certainly behind the idea to pin the murder on his roommate.

Only two FBI agents were killed in the 20s, so it would be more plausible if he were discredited or compromised in some way.

I'd prefer to see Willie go on an aristocrat murder spree.

Really, I think it just adds to the pressures Van Alden is under. He wants to be the happy family man, but he really sucks at it.

And Hoover was never much of a field guy. He was an administrator from the very beginning of his career.

In fairness, the lynchpin of breaking Eddie was based on backstory we had no clue about.

So, that implies it wasn't a suicide note?

I'm not familiar with May, but I think you're underselling Twain. He's probably the most significant American prose writer of the 19th century, both in terms of popularity and influence on later writers.

Robin to Harrow's Batman?

Wow, they were brand new — trust a junkie to be hip to all the latest junk food breakthroughs!

I could have done without the Van Alden points the gun at Al, and Frank sees it but then dies, bit. That just seemed very contrived and pseudo-dramatic.

According to Wikipedia, Frank was the more violent, and Al the negotiator. I think with the popular perception of Capone has an explosive hot head, they ubfortunately felt the need to reverse those roles.

The makeup artist deserves some credit also. She authentically looked seriously strung out but still attractive.
