I'm for giving Boro a break. He's loud, he's controversial, which isn't unusual for him. He's also somewhat difficult to pin down on one specific stance in the things he said. You might call that dodgy, or you might call it looking at the problem from several angles. At least he's been stirring the pot, let's have some more of that.
Roa's number slip seems odd, but I think if she were a wolf trying to mislead us she would have chosen something which couldn't have been proved false that easily.
Nog voting her for that, while hinting at more mysterious reasons which he doesn't bother to explain, makes me somewhat uneasy. Same for his earlier chiding those who leave till there's more to go on, when that's exactly what he did himself earlier, wandering off to his test tubes. I don't like double standards.
