During the first season, Steve Buscemi was told that Nucky's first wife, Mabel, was actually in an asylum, and not dead, as the character said to whoever asked. When Buscemi got the script for the episode in which Nucky tells Margaret the whole truth about Mabel's death, he talked to Terence Winter and asked him why Nucky was lying to Margaret when the scene had a confessional tone. Winter replied that the asylum storyline didn't work out, so Mabel was actually dead. The mortality rates in institutions at the turn of the century was fairly high, and being institutionalized was considered a death sentence.
