Guilty As Charged

Notes

  • The synopsis for "Guilty as Charged" released through TV listings services referred to Nitra as Chicane, presumably an early working name for the character. While usually referring to an artifical S-curve in a road or racing circuit, "chicane" derives from the same French root as "chicanery", chicaner, which can be translated as "to prevent justice"...which may have been considered a bit too on-the-nose, given Nitra's character.
