1923 Season 2’s Shocking New Villain Revealed!

by

In the year 1923 during Season 2, Spencer embarks on a challenging homeward trek; it seems there may be an appearance of a fresh antagonist, surprisingly a genuine individual. (Proceed with caution: spoiler alert!)

1923’s Season 2 Episode 1 serves as a recap for fans, delving into the current chapter of Spencer’s life. Following his arrest, he’s now employed on an Italian vessel.

In the dimly lit boat, it doesn’t take long for Spencer to step up in defense of his newly made companion, Luca. As they team up to secure their safety and make some cash, it seems their bond will endure for several upcoming episodes, if not more.

Nevertheless, Luca casually mentioned some genuine relatives, and it might not bode well for the Duttons if Spencer becomes connected to them.

1923 will likely introduce the real-life Maceo Organization

As they worked side by side in the ship’s engine room, Luca casually shared the names of his relatives with Spencer: Salvatore and Rosario Maceo.

In light of the fact that the story unfolds in 1923, during the Prohibition Era, and considering that the episode details hint at Spencer’s stay in Galveston, it seems evident that Luca is alluding to the Maceo Organization. The potential involvement of one or both of Luca’s cousins could signal impending difficulties.

In the region once called the “Free State of Galveston,” Texas, the Maceo Organization operated as a genuine criminal network, with its operations focusing on illicit activities like gambling and alcohol trafficking, which were tolerated in this area.

In this particular region, it was the Maceo brothers (Sam and Rosario) who held significant influence. As heads of their operation, they oversaw a variety of illicit businesses, including gambling dens, bootlegging rings, and prostitution establishments. Notably, they managed popular venues such as the Hollywood Dinner Club and the Balinese Room.

Although the mention was fleeting, numerous viewers saw it as a hint suggesting potential developments for Spencer.

A Reddit user speculated, “It’s unclear if there’s enough room for this to develop significantly in season two, but a part of me suspects that Spencer’s affairs in Galveston hinted at in the brief episode summary and his troubles in FW might be linked to the Maceo family. Given how well-connected his new friend appears to be in Galveston, it seems plausible that the Maceos, who were financially prosperous during this time period, could be involved.

I’m curious about the frequency of the mob-related characters in upcoming episodes,” someone mused. “Based on my guess, the forthcoming episodes will certainly delve into the Maceo family business, but I anticipate this plotline concludes once Maceo departs from Galveston.

However, it’s crucial to note another significant aspect about the Maceo family – they maintained ties with underworld figures from both Chicago and New York. By any chance, who else is traveling to New York? Correct, it’s Alex.

In the gritty world of 1923, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that Spencer’s tangled web with the crime family doesn’t escalate so much that they mobilize their forces in New York to track down his wife. Yet, in this era of danger and deceit, one never knows what might transpire.
