Stupid show. I was all set to write a really snarky recap…but then I actually watched the episode, and I really liked it.

I have some questions

One of the things I enjoy most about Boardwalk Empire is how intricate and complex the plot and characters are. One of the things I’ve been dreading about recapping Boardwalk Empire is catching people up on how intricate and complex the plot and characters are. …So, as a way to prevent us all from going crazy, I want to start out with a summary of characters, places, and generally what I expect will be relevant when we start out season 4!
