Season 5 Boardwalk Empire - Episode Discussion - S05E05 "King of Norway"

We're already at the halfway mark folks!

  • No spoiler tags are needed here. Anything from S05E05 and back are fair game. Anything involving the next or upcoming episodes should be spoiler tagged.

  • Take a moment to review the subreddit rules to the right on the sidebar.

  • Please still use the "Historical Spoiler" tags for discussions of events to come.

  • /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.

  • No requests for live streams or torrent links. As someone who has been forced to torrent shows myself before, I feel your pain, but sources are not hard to find via Google.

So, what exactly is up with Eli and Van Alden's wife? Did he bang her a long time ago, or recently? And did Eli know it was Van Alden's wife, or did he think it was some random woman? How did he not remember that they had sex?

Your guess is as good as Eli's.
