Meanwhile, in New York, due to Nucky's manipulation of Mayflower Grain stock, Joseph Kennedy's business associates begin unloading their shares. Kennedy suspects Nucky's involvement and confronts Margaret, who convinces him to short sell his own shares. Margaret helps Kennedy and Nucky make a huge profit from the sale. Impressed, Kennedy offers to make Margaret his business partner. Margaret meets Nucky to inform him of her success, and they share a slow dance. Nucky later returns to Atlantic City, intending to leave the city forever. He says goodbye to Eli, gives him some money, and encourages him to return to his family. He then meets Gillian in the sanitarium, telling her the most he can do is set up a trust fund for her when she is released. Back in New York, Luciano and Lansky gather the most powerful crime bosses in the U.S. and form The Commission, a singular body that mediates relations between all crime organizations in the country. On orders from Luciano, Siegel kills Narcisse in front of his church. In Chicago, Capone is served a court summons when the authorities manage to obtain his ledgers. While he publicly boasts that the charges of tax evasion won't stick, Capone says goodbye to his son before heading to court, where D'Angelo is waiting for him. In a flashback to 1897, Nucky, now Deputy Sheriff of Atlantic City, finds out Mabel has miscarried their child. Later that day, Eli calls him to stop their father from beating their mother. Nucky gets into a fight with his father and warns him that there will be consequences if he lays hands on her again. His father replies that Nucky will never be able to escape where he came from. At a town parade, the Commodore tells Nucky to turn in his badge, but offers to promote him to Sheriff if he brings Gillian to him; it is implied that the Commodore intends to rape her. After a moment's hesitation, Nucky approaches Gillian, telling her that the Commodore wants to help her. He then promises that he will always look out for her. The action then returns to 1931. On his last night in Atlantic City, Nucky receives a call from the police, who have arrested Joe Harper. Nucky bails Harper out of jail and gives him some money, but Harper angrily refuses Nucky's help. Nucky runs into Harper again hours later, and Harper reveals that he is in fact Tommy Darmody - Jimmy Darmody's son and Gillian's grandson. Tommy shoots Nucky three times before being restrained by the police. At the same time, IRS agents, who had followed Nucky the entire evening, identify themselves and arrest Tommy. As Nucky dies, he sees a vision of himself as a young boy, swimming in the ocean and catching a coin. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eldorado (Boardwalk Empire)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
