Would Box do that though? I tend to think he is more ethical, but who knows?

I see where you're going with this but is it ethical of him to not further question his gut feelings?

He knows something seems off about the case, but he still pushed hard for a charge.

Ignoring his intentions for a moment, he removed something from the crime scene. Why?

Maybe Box has never lost a case. So he removed a piece of evidence that could turn the case and harm his reputation.

I will apologize because I spoke you into circles.

I initially asked if he removed evidence and then I told you he removed evidence.

In some way I reminded myself of the scene and it does seem the inhaler should be evidence.

Anyway, only writing this because of the first two sentences.

Re: The Night Of (HBO)

I keep seeing James Gandolfini's credit as executive producer. I didn't realize Turturro's role was originally his (he even shot the pilot, the last thing he filmed). A month after it was picked up by HBO Gandolfini died, HBO moved ahead with it, then decided to give him the EP credit.

Tuturro became friends with Gandolfini after being introduced to him by his sister Aida Turturro, who played Tony's sister on The Sopranos.

Re: The Night Of (HBO)

I thought this show would be about the investigation but I think it's more about Naz's experience, which is cool too. Just felt like this episode was a different direction than the others.

But in a limited series covering the entire legal process from a convicted person's perspective, I guess every episode would feel different.

Different, but IMO the best episode so far of a series that is shaping up to be outstanding.

Not sure what Freddy's motives are, but you can't go wrong with Michael K Williams.

I think it is one of two things.
1. He is going to get close to Naz and then say he confessed to the murder to him to help him get out of jail earlier.
or
2. And this is the theory I believe to be true. He knows Naz didn't do it because he knows who did do it and he feel sorry for Naz. I think he pretty much knows everything that goes on because of his contacts and he knows Naz didn't do it.
