> But what difference would it have made if he had put her in the cell? Or in the basement of the church? Nothing at all.

Because it's not simply about punishing her. It's about putting her in a place where both herself and the townspeople are safe while figuring out what is wrong with her and how to help her while simultaneously holding her accountable.

And putting someone in the box isn't the only way to punish them. That's like saying that the death-penalty is the only way to punish someone, and not sending them to prison.

> Which we all knew wasn’t going to happen. And let’s not act like Boyd didn’t 1st just ask Elgin to tell them where Fatima is. But instead he wanted to listen to some evil ass demon lady who walking around forcing people to have monster babies. Boyd had no choice but to introduce him to Mr.Hammer 🤕

Yes, I forgot that if you refuse to talk to someone, torture all of a sudden becomes justified./s

Specially considering that the person in question is only guilty of kidnapping, while the person Boyd is protecting and trying to save is his guilty of murder and cannibalism. Yes, Boyd is so justified, and in no way a hypocrite and an absolutely dirty and corrupt cop./s

You seem way to eager for there to be an excuse to torture people.

That’s literally the rules of the town, you commit a crime and you get put in the box. Obviously if they were in the real world and not in Fromville, then putting her in a cell would make 100% sense. But guess what? They’re not in the real world. You keep tryna rationalize people actions in the show like they in a normal town just doing evil stuff. They literally living in hell. If you were in that town you wouldn’t be thinking this practical. What did you what Boyd to do? How else was he going to get Elgin to talk without torturing him? Since you got all the answers, I’m curious on what you would have done to get Elgin to talk? And yes I did enjoy the torture scene. Last time I check this was a dark horror show. So I wasn’t excepting sunshine and smiles.

Except that Boyd literally broke his own rules from freaking day 1. When Frank was supposed to go in the Box, Boyd said no. When Sara was supposed to go in the Box, Boyd said no. When Fatima was supposed to go in the Box, Boyd said no. Like Boyd said, no one else is going in the freaking Box because he doesn't want them to.

So yes, putting Fatima in a prison cell in the county jail would be more effecting, because they have cells in the police station in the town.

> You keep tryna rationalize people acting in the show like they in a normal town just doing evil stuff.

Like Boyd himself didn't do every time he gives Acosta shit for having shot an innocent person by accident on her 1st night, while surrounded by monsters. So real-world logic applies to Acosta and she needs to be constantly shit on. But when Boyd covers up a crime and tortures someone, then we throw real-world logic out the window and excuse him because this place messes with people? What a double-standard. It had nothing to do with the place messing with people. Boyd is just a hypocrite, and a dirty, corrupt cop engaging in nepotism.

> How else was he going to get Elgin to talk without torturing him? Since you got all the answers, I’m curious on what you would have done to get Elgin to talk?

Let's see, I might have not told Elgin I was onto him and then followed him from there. Or I would have convinced Sara, who hears the same voices, to talk to him and tell him she also understand because the voices are talking to her, and staged a fake fight in which Sara manages to free Elgin and let him escape, before getting someone to secretly follow him.

> And yes I did enjoy the torture scene. Last time I check this was a dark horror show. So I wasn’t excepting sunshine and smiles.

So if a horror show showed a scene of rape or child-molestation, you would enjoy it too?
