Thanks Lee šŸ–¤šŸ–¤šŸ–¤
There was supposed to be some dialogue of Jack just rubbing it in on Nucky that his time was ending and he was sad and alone, but it didn't save and then i rewatched the series and saw that hbo cut the mobcon from the series.
Now we are leaving teh slight crossover to join s5 and s6 of Peaky yay
National Anthem
Chapter 15
Cw: spoilers for Boardwalk Empire at the end

Tumblr media
The Valentineā€™s Day Massacre in Chicago leads to the first of its kind: the Atlantic City Conference.
A three-day meeting between delegates of almost every mob to try and figure out how to settle territorial disputes, blood feuds and how to keep the feds from ruining their kingdoms.
Nucky Thompson would be hosting in his city where booze and drugs and women spell a good Sunday night. He had personally come to invite him, man to man.
Equal to equal.
It was clear the Irish gangs were being snubbed since Nucky, Jack and two other fellows were the only delegates of their kind invited. The Jews and the Italians were the rising stars while the Irish went into more legitimate fields thanks to their whiteness.
But only a fool would leave him out.
Had he not been invited you could count on Jack Nelson walking into the Breakers Hotel with Eva on his arm like he owned the place.
ā€œDo I have to pretend I didnā€™t know we were in the presence of mobsters, or will we avoid them?ā€ Eva asks packing their things for the weeklong vacation they are lying about and come back in time for the twinsā€™ birthdays the following Monday.
Theyā€™ve left New York before the year ends on a dark note, the house in Hyannis Port is now officially their primary residence and would be until the end of time. Between the headaches Gina and her boyfriend were causing him here, the investigation about the shrinkā€™s murder and the incoming economic depression this fall, Jack just wanted to leave this place before it kills more of them.
ā€œLucky you, you get plausible deniability ā€˜cause youā€™re foreign but Iā€™m shit out of luck.ā€ Ā Jack tried to peek at the new swimsuit she wouldnā€™t show him. Jack has paid enough fines because her tastes were in violation of some bullshit laws, this surprise was easily fifty to sixty dollars heā€™d have to pay to avoid arrest.
His witch likes the racier fashions. Some men wouldnā€™t allow their wives to dress like that, but Jack could also break the jaw of anyone who looked at his woman. The bare shoulders, the legs for days and the figure she works like hell to keep would drive a holy man to sin.
These men gathered under the flag of peace could find themselves leaving with hard to explain injuries if they dared anything. Frank Costello likely still remembers that time Jack kicked his ass six ways to Sunday for leering at his whore one time. If Jack Nelson broke his ribs for a dime a dozen prostitute, imagine heā€™d do for his wife and the mother to his children.
Jack was looking forward to seeing them all be turned away from the Breakers Hotel Staff. The exclusive hotel had been the initial choice for lodgings, but the hotel owner couldnā€™t bend his rules for Nucky no matter what he tried.
The Hotelā€™s bigotry was famous enough to know they are absolutely giddy at the idea of turning down Italian and Jewish thugs at the door with impunity. Jack couldnā€™t wait to see Alphonse Capon, King Solomon and each of those fuckers get tossed out of the lobby.
But the Breakers Hotel doesnā€™t like Catholics, so heā€™ll settle with watching Capone from the Ritz where he and his wife already booked the presidential suite.
ā€œTheyā€™ll try to get in under false identities too.ā€ The witch revealed with a smirk as she relented and showed him the tiny halter neck top of her swimsuit.
Jack will gladly visit the beach with his checkbook every day of the week if he gets the best seat in the house for that.
And he does, stands there being waited on hand and foot by the staff as Scarface himself is turning as red as Evaā€™s tramp-red lips when he demands to know why the Breakers refused him entry.
Jack had made it a point to book a room at the hotel and go in person to cancel it claiming his secretary had made the reservations unaware his darling wife had already done them. The staff wanted him out on his ass for being Catholic and his wife foreign, but once they saw who they were they were begging for them to stay.
ā€œHow come this bastard gets to stay, heā€™s a fucking Catholic!ā€ Al gestures to Jack who had been dying for this moment.
He and Evie were supposed to be in the Presidential Suite already, changing into their beach clothes and promenading through the boardwalk like all the rich tourists do, but heā€™s been here inventing some bullshit excuse to sit back and watch as all the big names in the Mafia are being herded into this hotel and the Ambassador.
As far as everyone knows he is just Jack Nelson, Midas of the business world married to the Queen of American High Society. Everyone knows his darling Evie is good friends with every First Lady sheā€™s met, that Jack has been at the top since he turned twenty-three.
ā€œā€™Cause my reputation speaks for me, Capone.ā€ The Irishman smirked just as the Italian mob boss continued his bitch fit in the lobby. Heā€™ll have to hear about Lansky and his newly wedded wife not getting the presidential suite they were promised later, Jackā€™s about to make good use of it.
How they didnā€™t get caught is beyond him.
Tumblr media
Eva timed everything perfectly with that sixth sense of hers and not a single hint of them being at the Infamous Conference will exist.
These three days were like drugs to him, been so long since he was Jack the Gangster. Now on their last night here, he almost doesnā€™t want to leave.
While all were the kings of their turfs, Jack held the key to the gates of heaven. Prohibition is set to be overturned in 1933 once Frank becomes President and Nuckyā€™s party is out of office. They needed to make good legal money and who better than Midas to tell them what to do.
Kingmaker, Nucky dubbed him when he was forced to let him do the talking. Sounded as good as Midas.
Poor old Nucky thinks he has a chance against him, but Jackā€™s gonna wipe him from the face of the earth in less than four years. The Boston Gangster was already giving him a taste of whatā€™s to come at the casino.
The goddess had come dressed to kill, every crystal and stone on her gown caught the lights so perfectly you would have to be blind not to see her. The ladies here had been impressed, not everyone could afford a woman with looks and brains and amongst the mob wives, Evie reigned supreme.
The woman knew when their victory over their host would happen. They assumed in ā€™33 or ā€™34 when prohibition gets repealed, but there was that moment her eyes went to the back of her head as Thompson presented her with a black mink cape as a gift.
Jackā€™s been dying to know what Aphrodite had seen.
ā€œGo on, sweetheart, tell daddy when Nucky Thompsonā€™s meeting his maker.ā€ Jack nuzzled his wifeā€™s neck making sure Nucky gets an eyeful at what he wonā€™t ever have with his lawfully wedded wife.
There was no need to antagonize him further, but Jack Nelson just couldnā€™t help himself.
Enoch Thompson had everything except a family. Hadnā€™t taken much to know how much the man envied his replacement, especially when his replacement had five kids and a wife who wouldnā€™t leave him like Nuckyā€™s did.
Even if the man had the tough as nails, voluptuous Sally Wheet, Enoch would only want the woman hiding out in New York under Arnold Rothensteinā€™s protection. Margaret Rohan would have no choice but to work for the Nelsons once Arnold and Nucky are out of the picture.
ā€œ1931, Jimmy Darmody's son will shoot him right outside this hotel as the IRS comes to end whatā€™s left of him.ā€ his woman answered as she dragged him onto the dance floor for one final dance instead. ā€œThink you can wait two more years?ā€
ā€œFor you, Iā€™d wait ten years, doll.ā€
Everyoneā€™s gonna end the summer as poor as they started, but not him. King Midas will be the last one standing and this time the Kingmaker isnā€™t going to let anyone share his moment in the sun.
