"After the election of Miss America, Donnie's influence in Atlantic City just keeps on growing!" Nucky said to Louis, looking at the now closed door.
Louis nodded and replied, "But I know you must have a way to control Donnie, boss."
With a confident smile, Nucky said, "Do you know why I didn't mention Harding's mistress to Donnie just now?"
Shaking his head, Louis answered, "No idea!"
Nucky, increasingly buoyant, continued, "Actually, I was testing Donnie. I wanted to see if he would bring it up on his own. If he had, I wouldn't let him continue with the Miss America project. But now he's been smart, not mentioning it. This shows that, at least for the time being, he understands his place in Atlantic City!"
Louis nodded again.
At that moment, Lucy emerged from the bedroom, exquisitely dressed.
"Are you going out?" Nucky asked as he saw Lucy dressed up.
