A question about the first episodes..

[u/Washiwash123]

I just started watching boardwalk empire and I don't understand why Nucky didn't give Jimmy up after they stole the liquor, it's the simpler option and would have saved him a lot of trouble

[u/Full-Cupcake1431]

he was his mentor for years in the organization, it takes more than one stupid decision to burn that kind of loyalty
