The Night Of

A Pakistani-American college student seeks legal representation after being implicated in a NYC murder.

As attorney John Stone counsels Naz and warns him to keep quiet, lead detective Dennis Box meets with the victim's stepfather and, later, prosecutor Helen Weiss.

Awaiting his formal arraignment at Rikers Island, Naz realises that his survival, or perhaps his demise, rests with a particular inmate, Freddy. Meanwhile, his parents are tempted by a counteroffer for their son's defence.

Naz weighs the pros and cons of copping a plea as Stone, working to uncover information about the crime, opens a window to Andrea's past.

Box reconstructs Naz's whereabouts on 'the night of'.

As prosecutor Helen Weiss prepares for trial, Naz's alliance with Freddy deepens.
