Season 5 begins in 1931, a full six years after the end of Season 4. The country is in the throes of the Great Depression, and with the end of Prohibition in sight, Nucky is looking to legitimize himself by forging alliances with liquor producers. As we learn, Arnold Rothstein has been killed, leaving Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky scheming to wrest control from crime kingpins like Joe Masseria and Salvatore Maranzano - and eliminate competitors like Nucky. Rothstein's death also complicates matters for Nucky's estranged wife Margaret, whose fragile job on Wall Street is threatened when her boss kills himself, leaving her with a file full of incriminating documents. Chalky White, whose fortunes hit rock bottom after the death of his daughter, seizes an opportunity to escape from a chain gang - and return to Atlantic City to exact revenge at last on Valentin Narcisse. Finally, Eli Thompson, who went underground and moved to Chicago after killing federal agent Tolliver (a.k.a. Knox), is now working with Nelson Van Alden under Al Capone, who is being set up for a downfall through an infiltrator in his high-profile organization. (HBO Europe)
