So, I wanted to ask if this had ever been discussed, ’cause I’m really curious. I tried to search the forum but had no success lol. In Price of Gold (1×04 I think) Emma’s stuff arrives at MMs apartment. She pulls out this box, and kind of runs her hands along the edges and clutches it to herself. Her dialogue at the same time is, “I’m not sentimental,” but of course we know that’s a giant lie. Given that she appears to only have about three boxes of stuff – and we can see the baby blanket behind her, the few things she keeps are pretty important to her, so obviously this box has some type of meaning. I wondered if it was the watch box? Not sure how she would have gotten it if it is – perhaps Neal left it in the car or…?
I tried to go back to Tallahassee (is that the only time we see it, the scene in the car?) but you never really see the outside of the box. At one point you can kind of see the edge, and it doesn’t appear to have the same decorative lines as this box does – so then I thought it was not the same (but perhaps that’s a production error or a different edge, and it is supposed to be the same, dunno.) Initially I thought maybe cigar box; it also kinda looks like a K-Cup storage box with the circles on the top being coffee pods so I could totally be reading too much into it 😉 Has this ever been discussed/established?
