Great season finale
Listen yall Jimmy had to die. If Jimmy wanted to live he should've went to Waxy about getting Manny. I mean he knows he has unfinished business so after helping Nuck head right back to Philly. There was no way he was going back to Nucky and everything was gonna be roses again. In the end Nuck let Jimmy pay him back by offing that other traitor and indirectly giving up those Klan members to Chalky. It HAD to end this way, dude is so young and ambitious with all of the Commodore's money there's no telling when he could strike again and go after Nucky. It could've been different if there was some dialog where Jimmy said Nuck was more of a father to him than anyone (since I'm pretty sure Nuck was his only real father figure) but hey he didn't say the right words and basically came to him like the kid he was before this started "Tell me how to make it right Nuck, tell me what to do." That's exactly how you get killed. Plus like it's been said this opens up next season to Lucky & Lansky and Al, along with other up n comers like Nathan "Kid Dropper" Kaplan, Paul Kelly, Bugsy Siegel, etc.
I also think Jimmy was wrong about that being Nucky's first kill. I'm not saying he has a lot of bodies under him directly but he been a murderer. I feel Nucky's hesitation and nervousness was cuz he really did see Jimmy as a son to him and the fact that he probably took Rothstein's advice and flipped a coin on the matter. Honestly though, between choosing the two why kill Manny a man you don't know to kill and Jimmy the dude who helped to make your a living hell for a while and basically kill you/have you imprisoned?
Very interesting that Jimmy came knowing he was gonna face Manny unarmed. Like his intentions could be a whole debate within itself (whether he was drunk and not thinking, was he gonna forgive him, let Manny kill him, kill Manny with his bare hands, or that he knew it was a setup all along and didn't want Harrow to die, etc.)
Love Jimmy's last little convo with Harrow though:
Jimmy: "You gotta come back home."
Harrow: "How?"
Jimmy: "I don't know how but you gotta try"
or something like that. I expect Harrow to start banging Gillian at some point next season.
As for Margret. She gonna learn the hard way. I feel she's playing a game and being spiteful. She probably thinks that Nucky thinks he fooled her with that I love you, I didn't want to marry you and insult you cuz you'd be saving my life, the rest of the world doesn't matter only you and the family garbage. So she resolved to go tit for tat with dude. Nucky claims he's turning over a knew leaf, lying through his teeth when he mentions the lord giving him a second chance and then basically outright says I killed Jimmy last night so she gives the deed to the church to make it up to GOD for him. She probably thinks she can even the sins out.
Loved seeing Van Alden in Cicero. Hopefully he gets mixed up with Capone, possibly like a Eliot Ness lite without a badge.
Looking forward to next season and the current story lines along with new ones and new characters.
