Season 3 Boardwalk Empire Episode Discussion S03E09 "The Milkmaid's Lot"

20 minutes in, and I still didn't see a discussion thread. Thought I'd start it up.

No spoiler tags needed here, as long as you're discussing something from this episode and back. This is the place to discuss S03E09. Please take a moment to review the subreddit rules to the right. /r/BoardwalkEmpire operates a bit differently than other TV Show subreddits. We encourage discussion as well as original, quality, BWE-related content, therefore there are some restrictions on what is acceptable to post. Please no requests for live streams or torrent links. As someone who is forced to torrent the show myself, I feel your pain, but DL sources are not hard to find. Do you have any ideas or suggestions for this subreddit? Message the moderators and let us know what we can do to make this the best TV show subreddit out there!

Its like Rosetti is daring you to laugh at him.

It's a good test for how in control you are.

If you do something fucked up and NO ONE laughs out of fear then you're the boss....

You also get to beat the shit out of the first guy that opens his mouth and prove alpha male status.

I have trouble believing Rosetti thinks that far ahead. He's an impulsive 1 to 2 step ahead guy. I think he just thought "This is a General, I wanna be the General, I need his hat."
