It always seems that as soon as i really start liking a character, he gets killed, I was kind of expecting something but it was so astonishing to see him in that crate only to then reveal what he and Margaret had talked about, it was so sad. Just a wonderful show with intelligent writing and superb acting. Loved every episode this season and so looking forward to next Sunday.

I thought it was great as well. This season has felt disjointed at times to me, but none of that showed in this episode. Best of the season, imo.
It'll be interesting to see where Nucky goes from here. It looks like he's really backed into a corner, but I highly doubt they're going to off the main character on the show.
My guess is that Harrow becomes his new hired gun to send after Masseria. That scene earlier in the season where Harrow told Nucky that he has no beef with him probably comes back into play now. In that exchange Nucky learned he's enough of a badass to get the job done and he doesn't have anyone else currently in his employ that could even come close.
I also think Nucky will make a deal with Chalky. Chalky will supply men to handle the blowback from offing Masseria and in exchange he'll get the club that he wants -- maybe the new Babbette's after they rebuild it.
At least that's what I hope happens. We've seen the calm before the storm, now it's time for some action and there's no better characters on the show for that than Harrow and Chalky.
