TV Geek Out 233: Boardwalk Empire, "What Does the Bee Do?"

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned wrote Shakespeare, and while the writers of Boardwalk Empire are more likely to invoke the Bible than the Bard, "What Does the Bee Do?" (season 2, episode 4) certainly closes with a fury from one of our favorite females on the show. But before we get to there, Nucky makes a deal with Rothstein, and Jimmy makes a deal with Manny. One of these arrangements turns out much better than the other. And associates of Van Alden are in for an explosive surprise. Join TV geeks Heather, Perry, and Dana as they answer the question "What Does the Bee Do?" Check it out here!
