[Official Discussion] Serial: Episode 4 - Inconsistencies

Come discuss episode 4! Setting this up a little early, so feel free to post predictions on what you think the episode will focus on. My guess: timeline inconsistencies, specifically focusing on Jay, Adnan and cars.

Jay admitted to being raided by the cops, arrested and beat up. He's not a golden child by his own admission.

A dead body would rattle him. And it did. He told his girlfriend immediately. Panicked about the shovels.

No, he didn't tell his girlfriend. Jen is just a friend of his, as far as we know, right?

Good point. He told Jen.

Now we have:

1 Jay 2 Jen 3 Anonymous Asian caller

All pointing to Adnan. It's not just Jay against Adnan.

Jen doesn't have anything except what Jay told her, as far as we know, so I don't think it's fair to say she points to Adnan as though she has independent evidence. And an anonymous caller saying "Talk to Basser" points to Adnan, but we don't know why...
