“You can’t be half a gangster,” Jimmy Darmody (Michael Pitt) told his then-boss Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) in the very first episode of HBO’s Prohibition Era drama Boardwalk Empire. Two seasons later, Jimmy is gone — dead at the hands of Nucky, who finally took his would-be protegé‘s advice.
“Up until episode 12 of Season 2, we never really saw Nucky pull the trigger. He’s the guy who’s telling other people to do that,” creator Terence Winter tells TVGuide.com. “Now, Nucky’s fully capable of both ordering people dead and killing them himself. He’s much more serious. He used to be a gangster and a gang leader one step removed. Now, he’s out from behind the desk and really getting his hands dirty.”
