Re: the box on the beach. I would probably have said "air." Because that's probably at least partly right.

I would have said Schrodinger's cat was in the box.

eta With Schrodinger's lid on it, apparently.

re: the box and sand et al.

Koenig may have shot someone on principle if an in depth philosophical discussion broke out.

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

I do have a box with sand in it, but it's never been on a beach. I have had a similar box on the beach, but it had silver inlaid runes in it and no sand. ah, Essaoiura, land of sand and boxes.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

OK, that is evocative and convincing.

I now have no idea what is in the box. Perhaps Gwyneth Paltrow's head.

That would be Dean's pick--Gwyneth's head and a Desert Eagle.

Sam would have a map and instructions to make a boat.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I now have no idea what is in the box. Perhaps Gwyneth Paltrow's head.

That was the immediate image that leapt to mind when I heard about the question. I wonder how often the S.H.I.E.L.D. interviewers hear that one?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

What's in the box? WHAT'S IN THE BOX?

Surely the obvious answer is sand.

I love this answer. Of course I recently saw Peter and the Starcatcher, so...

All of the emotional moments of the end of the episode were completely lost on me. I was too busy laughing about the plasma source four juniors. [link] I gotta get me one of those.

Also, I watched In Your Eyes. I liked it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I saw the movie too. I didn't care for it. It felt a little Lifetime to me.
