We’ve been waiting for the fifth and final season of Boardwalk Empire with equal parts anticipation and dread. Anticipation, because it’s one of our favorite shows. Dread, because it’s one of our favorite shows. This fifth season, unfortunately, marks an ending for the shady dealings of Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) and the gangster underworld of a Prohibition-era Atlantic City. But it’s not all doom and gloom — we’re glad that Boardwalk Empire will bow out on a high note, leaving the have fun while it’s still fun. And what better way to preserve such a perfectly cinematic, narrative rich legacy?

VH1 attended the red carpet premiere for season five, and trapped up with some of the stars of the show to question them how they plotting Boardwalk Empire was going to end. None of the cast has any clue where the show is vacant, making their expectations just as creative as our own. From the isolated predictions of Michael K. Williams (Chalky White) to the optimistic views of Domenick Lombardozzi (Ralph Capone), to the potential vampire crossover spin-off we dreamed up with John Ellison Conlee (who played the late Commodore), the cast’s predictions are beyond doubt diverse.

And of course, it wouldn’t be a conversation about Boardwalk Empire if we didn’t turn our attention to the shows more brutal, grisly moments. So we also took the liberty of asking the stars which on screen deaths from past seasons really turned their tummies. Some answers you might agree with, and additional’s perhaps giving you pause for plotting, bringing out a more emotional side to Boardwalk Empire‘s shocking violence.
