I thought it was a great finale. The looks back in time to Nucky's childhood and young adulthood tied together nicely as did Gillian's story. Nucky's original sin of pimping thirteen year old Gillian out to the Commodore finally caught up with him.
It's interesting that the real life Enoch "Nucky" Johnson who Steve Buscemi's character is based on was investigated and eventually arrested in the '30s and served four years of a ten year prison sentence for tax evasion in the 40's, finally living until the ripe old age of 85 and passing away of natural causes in 1968. Of the main historical characters in the series, only the much younger Meyer Lansky outlived him.
