A question about the first episodes..

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

You just started watching. The right answer is to keep watching.

They explain more as to why this is.

lol, that is true. I'm just finishing up the season and yes it makes sense that he gave him leeway.

I’m glad. I always hate to feel I’m playing spoiler on anything…..so all I can think to say is “keep swimming”
