Are you talking about Carleton College in Northfield? I grew up about five blocks away.

That's a great piece though, nicely lays out why that argument makes no sense.

On a related note, Daisy's line about someone in shield dying terrifies me. I care the least about Lincoln, but he's newer and it seems like they're trying to give him character development so it doesn't seem like they'd kill him so soon. I don't want anyone else to die!

I was kind of rolling my eyes through Malick's monologues, because the threatening villain under interrogation is a trope that I feel like the show has used a lot, but the dialogue could have been a lot worse and at least now he's gone.
The fitzsimmons scenes were cute. The pacing and handling of that whole relationship has been kind of weird but if this is the resolution I'm glad that it was quiet and casual rather than over-dramatic.
Lincoln's reaction at Infected!Daisy using his temper against him was one of the very few times I have actually been compelled by him all season.
The Hive calling Daisy 'Skye' at the very end is interesting--it makes sense that Ward's memories would call her that, but it also makes me wonder how Ward's body and memories being around will be included in the upcoming episodes. We've seen Coulson reaction to it at least, and maybe once Daisy is Daisy again it'll become a factor for her too?

I really like this show, but it makes me so nervous watching it because the romantic relationships are such a focus, but I think it's clear that the best thing for everyone at this point would be for all of them to stop. Like, neither Josh/Rebecca or Greg/Rebecca seems like a healthy option right now, especially after this episode. And I think the show knows this, but it's walking such a weird line in terms of both genre and how miserable it makes the characters that I really have no idea where it's going!
