Here is a summary of what to expect in episode one:
January 1920. On the eve of Prohibition, Atlantic City’s Treasurer, NuckyThompson (Steve Buscemi), condemns alcohol at a Women’s Temperance Leaguemeeting, where he is noticed by Margaret Schroeder (Kelly Macdonald), a pretty,pregnant housewife who comes to him for help in getting her abusive husband Hans (Joe Sikora) a job. Later that evening, the duplicitous Nucky privately tells his ward bosses about the opportunity to make huge profits selling bootleg liquor.
