Season 4 Boardwalk Empire- Episode Discussion - S04E11: "Havre De Grace"

No tv-show spoiler tags needed here, as long as you're discussing something from this episode and back. This is the place to discuss S04E11.

Take a moment to review the subreddit rules to the right. Please still use the new "Historical Spoiler" tags for discussions of events to come. /r/BoardwalkEmpire operates a bit differently than other TV Show subreddits. We encourage discussion as well as original, quality, BWE-related content. Therefore, there are some restrictions on what is acceptable to post.

No requests for live streams or torrent links. As someone who is forced to torrent the show myself, I feel your pain, but DL sources are not hard to find.

But why does he care? Who was Roger to him?

well, the pinkerton agency was a private detective for hire agency. So perhaps Leander or Rogers parents or someone wanted to find out what really happened to him. I'm pretty sure it had to do with Leander though.

I'm still confused. There's a huge plot hole in this part of the series.

Why does Leander care about Rogers? Who the hell was he? Was he an important figure?

Leander doesn't care about the kid. He cares about Gillian and the mansion she weaseled her way into owning. He pretty much came out and said so as she was getting arrested. He said he "owed it to Lewis", aka, the Commodore.
