I think he's going to find his wife dead, then break out the envelope and go on a heroin fueled killing spree.

That's exactly what I thought... Guess that's good writing though, not being predictable. I didn't really like her, her storyline, or her new haircut. Didn't consider the possibility that this would lead Jimmy to the heroin, pretty interesting thought though. I was surprised they killed her, she's in the opening credits . I guess, for that matter, so is Paz de la Huerta and it seems like Lucy's outta there, too. (Didn't care for Angela, or really Lucy, but I have thing for Paz)
Yeah, Manny was pretty damn hardcore, I wasn't sure if he was going to kill Angela after he offed the other girl or not. Of ALL the people Jimmy deals with, the psychopathic butcher seems like one of the LAST ones to screw around with. Especially over $5k?! It seems like it would have just made sense to pay him and just be done with it, especially since he actually DID owe him the money. How much is $5000 to him anyhow?! He obviously has it since he gave that jackass 3rd person speaking Remus $60000. Didn't Manny just butcher an enemy when he was first introduced, and the later have someone strung up in the freezer waiting to kill?
Al least that was a really good episode to make up for the shitbag "mid-season finale" episode of The Walking Dead. My DVR is busy on Sunday nights.

Jimmies first mistake in regards to manny was flexing at the end of the last episode or the other one, by throwing whats his face off the balcony. Thats what made it obvious to manny that something was up. Atleast in my opinion. I love how this show goes from drama to violence in a matter of seconds.

Classic Oedipus complex, killed the father and fucked his mother in the same episode.........weird, wild stuff. If I'm not mistaken during an earlier episode this season his mother claimed to have "kissed his pee pee when he was a baby" so I'd imagine that may have played a role in his dysfunction. Boardwalk Empire is really delivering this year, multiple main characters killed off and indited with federal charges AND polio.

Yeah, totally. There have been hints all along at it but this really threw it out there. What struck me is when he was choking his Mom without showing any signs of letting up, it was the Commodore out of all people who tried to rescue her. Then, after Jimmy and the Commodore were both injured and looking at each other, it was his Mom who said "Well finish it already you son of a bitch" or something like that to Jimmy. Very interesting stuff. Even after being choked to the brink (the bitch definitely deserved it) she still sides with Jimmy.
I knew they'd kill the Commodore soon but I liked how they did it. Total Hamlet/Oedipus complex going on here, definitely. Just how like at the college mixer his Mom manipulated him in to attacking his teacher and getting expelled, all presumably (in my opinion) out of jealousy that Jimmy was hooked up with Angela (dead paris girl) a girl he didn't even like that much he ended up having a kid with, going in to the military to escape life.
Lettuce not forget Van Alden, who finally had to come to terms with his killing of the other officer and choose to run away from it. I wonder how he will play in to next week
Can't wait until the season finale. So pumped for a bunch of people dying
Also I gotta point out this show has a lot of balls. Killing main characters, incest, Freudian family dynamics, alcohol, guns, heroin, great music, sets, the best characters on TV right now.

holy hell, what a brilliant episode.
as mentioned, this was a twisted, backwards take on oedipus rex. theyve been hinting at jimmy and his mom possibly having a history of sexual activity for awhile, but damn it was still pretty surprising.
also no surprise jimmy decided to bust out the h. hope this doesnt become common for him.
but shit yea, james killing his dad was a total fucking shock. and his mom just standing there casually, "finish him." insane. then the next scene jimmy is shown talking with his own son, sort of eerie.

Couldn't have said it better myself, and yes the Van Alden storyline was great. I totally forgot about him killing the little guy so I was pleasantly surprised to see him shoot a prohibition officer and lamb it. It's so action packed I wouldn't be shocked if they wrapped up the whole series in 3 seasons.

She seduced him when he was wasted in college, those were all flashbacks. He wakes up later in the episode all fucked up on whiskey and heroin, and it seems like he realizes what happened and how fucked up his mother is. Tries too kill her, and grandpa comes up from the back with a spear, like he's going after some wild boar.

I wonder if they numbed up the commodore in each episode to make him seem like that.

not sure, but seeing him the way he was post-stroke, you really realize the dude is a phenomenal actor. i think it was the last episode were he was just struggling to get words out, then tells jimmy to show them his cock. the guy playing him is amazing considering he had to play a stroke victim and pulled it off quite convincingly

This season turned out way better than expected, though the foreshadowing is nuts i saw most of the "shocking" stuff coming. Still, very good.

Just got to watch it last night. I can't believe he fucked his mom... I wasn't sure if it was actually going to happen.
I too would bang his mom... If you think Gretchen Mol is hot, you should see The Notorious Bettie Paige. She's Bettie Paige.
They've cleaned house on A LOT of characters this season...
Margaret better not testify, that'd be pretty fucked up. She was OK with everything until the shit hit the fan...
