Yeah, I dig how they draw out what we all know is the inevitable climax to some of the scenes. Yes, Nelson/George is gonna go OFF! The only question is just how off he's gonna go. But we know he'll be using the iron, and we know it's gonna put someone in a world of hurt. And we know when Billie and Nucky stare at each other, she at the entry to Babette's, he still out on the boardwalk, that something final is unfolding. It had something of the emotional resonance of the scene in "The Godfather" in the seconds before the Santino Corleone character meets his end at the toll plaza.
I'm left wondering how long Gillian's complicity in the Babette's bombing will remain unknown to Nucky, Rothstein, Luciano, et al.
