We don't know much about the COL so I am obviously making some wld assertions. I could be wrong by miles. There could be a major story arc about to take place in S3 centered around the COL. I just don't see it for a nummber of reasons.

Big reason #1 - Jaha, Murphy and 2 red shrts. Even the gorilla had a red shirt. How awesome can COL be if that is all they are giving us to work with? I even felt that when half the group turned back after the bandits stole their things was saying something to the effect thhat COL likely won't be major.


 * 1) 2 - It is little more than a rumor to the Grounders, yet they have existed in the area and usually under harsh conditions for generations.  If Jaha and crew had taken weeks or months to get there, I could see it as outside the Grounders, the Tree Clans area.   But, they are taking only a few days.  Even considering the Dead Zone, you check anything that is rumored within a few days of your home.


 * 1) 3 - This show is really good at tossing red herrings at us.  Getting our attention fixated over here, then doing something else over there.  What bigger red herring would there be than something that looks like it will be S3 at this point but becomes just another distraction?


 * 1) 4 - Drone, solar panel field, mine field, convenient boat.   All of which might be saying something, but none of which might be saying something.   The writers are leaving themsleves a lot of flexibility to do a lot of things, or do nothing with the arc.


 * 1) 5 - Is nothing like what you might expect.   Most people seem to be expecting it to be major.  That statement would seem to contradict that  assumption.  Most seem to think it is NYC or something similiar.  Again, seems to be contradicted.  Some are voting for a miilitary base.  Too predictable.  Everyone expects it to be major.  The statement suggests to me it will not be major.  Not what you would expect.

Just to step outside the bounds of what is expected.....I am votiing for something like a cruise ship. Sommehow made it into the Great Lakes region and has been existing there much like a hybrid of Grounders and Mt Men.

Also had a thought. What if she said City of Flight? Say both fast three times. Dayton, Ohio? Not sure what could be done with that, but I liked the thought.
