The resort’s singular purpose of providing a good time to its visitors - whether lawful or not - demanded a single mentality to rule the town. Success of the local economy was the only ideology, and critics and do-gooders weren’t tolerated. By 1900, a political juggernaut, funded by payoffs from gambling rooms, bars, and brothels, was firmly entrenched. For the next 70 years, Atlantic City was dominated by a partnership comprised of local politicians and racketeers. This unique alliance reached full bloom in the person of Enoch “Nucky” Johnson - the second of three bosses to head the Republican machine that dominated city politics and society.
Season Info:
"Boardwalk Empire" (sometimes referred to as "Pilot" in short) is the first episode and the series premiere of the HBO crime drama Boardwalk Empire. Based upon Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times and Corruption of Atlantic City by Nelson Johnson, the episode was written by creator Terence Winter and directed by Martin Scorsese, both of whom serve as executive producers. The episode first aired in the United States on September 19, 2010. The episode opens on a shot of a fisherman, Bill McCoy on a foggy night, as he spots a smaller boat coming towards his. After a brief exchange McCoy delivers his cargo, several crates of whiskey, to the smaller ship. The men are all bootleggers smuggling whiskey from Canada into the United States. Once ashore, the bootleggers load the whiskey into trucks. Their final destination is New York. While passing through a remote portion of New Jersey they come across an overturned car and what appears to be the injured driver. Just as they finish removing the man and his car from the middle of the road they are approached from behind by two men in ski masks armed with shotguns. The overturned car and injured driver has turned out to be a ruse in order to get the smugglers out of their vehicles and away from their valuable cargo. Just as one of the robbers uses the butt of his rifle to knock down the lead smuggler, the scene abruptly cuts to events occurring three nights prior. Atlantic County treasurer Nucky Thompson is the keynote speaker at a Women's Temperance League rally on the eve of Prohibition in 1920. In the audience watching him speak is a pregnant woman, Margaret Schroeder. He relates to the League an story about being the son of an alcoholic. He describes how his family was so severely impoverished that at one point his family ate rats. Nucky receives applause from the female audience. At Nucky's club, Babette's, club-goers are enjoying the last night of legal drinking. In a back room, Nucky meets elected officials including the mayor of Atlantic City and Nucky's brother, the sheriff, Eli Thompson. Despite the impending prohibition the men are excited at the prospect of gaining from illegal liquor. Nucky controls many of the city's illegal enterprises. He welcomes back Jimmy who has just returned after serving in WWI, and makes him a "Man Friday" (assistant) to Paddy Ryan, a young ward boss....
