Complete story — includes the ending

In the past, Deputy Nucky finds out Mabel has miscarried, much to his shock. He is then summoned to his family home, where he physically beats his father for hitting his mother again and warns there will be consequences if harm ever comes to his mother. After returning to Atlantic City, Nucky comes across Gillian, who is participating in a parade. The Commodore promotes Nucky to Sheriff and his first task is to deliver Gillian to him. Nucky reluctantly approaches Gillian, telling her that the Commodore is willing to take her in, promising that he will look out for her. With his holdings in Atlantic City lost, Nucky decides to go for a swim in the ocean. In New York, due to Nucky's manipulation of Mayflower stock, Kennedy's business associates are nervous that repeal will not happen and begin unloading their shares. Kennedy suspects Nucky's involvement, but Margaret convinces him to short sell his shares. Margaret meets Nucky to inform him of her success and it appears that they will rekindle their relationship but are interrupted. Nucky later returns to Atlantic City, intending to leave it forever. He meets Eli, gives him some money and encourages him to return to his family. He meets Gillian in the mental hospital, telling her the most he can do is set up a trust fund for her when she is released. It's revealed that Gillian has undergone surgery for her feigned insanity by psychiatrist, Dr Henry Cotton, while in the hospital. Back in New York, Luciano and Lansky gather crime bosses from around the country and form the Commission, a singular body to mediate relations between crime organizations. Luciano tells Bugsy to kill Narcisse who is assassinated in front of his church. In Chicago, Capone is served a court summons after the authorities get his ledgers. While he publicly boasts that the charges of tax evasion won't stick, Capone says goodbye to his son before heading to court, where D'Angelo is waiting for him. Nucky comes across Joe Harper who reveals himself as Tommy Darmody, Jimmy's son and Gillian's grandson and shoots Nucky three times before being restrained by revenue agents. As Nucky dies, he sees a younger version of himself swimming in the ocean and catching a coin.
