Episode 4-11
"Havre De Grace"
Written by Howard Korder who will be credited with nine of the twelve episodes this season
Directed by Allen Coulter, of Rome
Well, Mr. Piggly Wiggly revealed himself to be a Pinkerton, there to get a confession out of Gillian for the murder of Roger, apparently in the employ of Leander in the interest of revenge for the Commodore's death (even though Jimmy killed him). She's caught in a grift that is more or less taken from The Sting.
I was wrong about one thing. I thought Gillian murder of Roger was more like a ritualistic type thing to bring her closure due to never finding Jimmy's body, but apparently it was to officially make in dead in the eyes of the law and to give the remaining estate to Gillian, as guardian of Tommy. Turns out she was and is aware of what she did and I was reading way too much into it.
I was wrong about a second thing. There are only twelve episodes this season, meaning next week is the series finale. Depending on how that turns out, this could beat out Season Two as the strongest of the series. *
* Coincidentally, Justified just had their fourth season and depending on who you talk to, it beat out the previously strongest Season Two. Either could be considered the best, it is six in one hand, two birds in the bush.
Speaking of Justified (get ready for a bunch of Justified references, it comes back in six weeks), Nucky gets a call from Gaston Means, who is completely bombed, but lucid enough to tell Nucky there a "skunk in his cellar" and requesting $50,000 working his way up to $200,000 to tell him who it is. We saw Means meeting with Knox/Jim earlier, but I'm not sure if he's referring to Knox/Jim or Eli at the moment. The call ends abruptly when the Capitol Police storm his house to arrest him for perjury. Means bemoans "I was a judge!"...and you will be again in rural Kentucky.
Body count 3 (30 total)
- Oscar :-( By Narcisse's henchman at Havre de Grace with the shotgun
- Two of Narcisse's henchman. Winston at Havre de Grace with the shotgun
- We'll assume the guy Mr. Piggly Wiggly shot is not actually dead
"Take care and God Bless!"
