That's what I'm assuming happened after they knocked him out. What did you think?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
It never occurred to me that they killed him! OMG.
Apparently Lenscrafters gave me a naïvete coating on my lenses instead of the scratch resistant one I requested.

Compassionately intolerant
However accidental it may have been, Nathan pressing his needs on Daisy leading to her death was glossed over pretty quickly. The whole conversation about the various skeletons in their closets, while kind of funny, really gave me pause.
And then there's the preview with Simon making a declaration that doesn't, with the given information, seem to be about self defense or the greater good.
Don't hear me attacking the show. I love it.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Didn't they also kill Goody Two Shoes Girl?

Well, it was another more-or-less accident; Nathan dragged her off the roof with him. Nathan seems to have that effect on the good girls (though Healing-Girl should technically still be alive, now).
I'm in the camp that didn't think they killed Lactokinesis-Boy, though now you mention it I'm not sure what they did do to him after punching him in the face.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
oh i'm positive they killed him. if they didn't, what's to stop him from going public and still killing people when he realizes he's not the coolest kid with powers in the room?

I assumed they killed him, but really wished they'd come up with something fancy so they didn't have to.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I feel badly he was killed before he could do something bad. I was wondering if they could just sit and talk to him about the people with powers banding together to work toward some future purpose.
He seemed like he was hungering for respect and had a low opinion of himself, so it would have been nice to give him a chance.
But that's too much Buffy for me.

He was a sociopath. I don't think you can talk someone who ends up that casual about killing people to make himself look better into being a law-abiding member of society. What argument do you use? He killed people with cheese because they were cooler than he was.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yeah, I know. he just seemed nicer before he went on the killing spree! :-)
