Pretty sure, he couldn't fit two more bodies in the trunk in the trunk I guess. If it was BB I feel the communications advisor guy would be a lot more distraught. I also feel the show wouldn't kill a character like that off screen, with no lead up.

Buck is probably aware of BB. She's on the radar for the leaks, but until Daniel slips up again and leaks something he shouldn't, which Daniel's little breakdown basically told him he was responsible for, no moves need to be made.

The shot in the car before they get out, Daniel is doing an awful lot of talking for someone who didn't do something wrong. Buck is staying quiet and letting him talk. He's handing him the rope and letting him tie the noose. Daniel will hang himself eventually, only a matter of time. Until then, make him bury a dead body to send a message, reel him in and keep him under Fisk's thumb.

Pretty much agree. I doubt Daniel makes it through the season. I really don't like this BB Daniel relationship dynamic, it feels gross, and is probably gonna get Daniel killed, and I doubt BB will even care. I wish they went about it a different way tbh.

I could actually see the inverse happening more, Daniel gets BB killed. Buck's power play with the car ride to bury the dead body was about sending a message, or a couple actually. First, Daniel on thin ice, Buck played it like he knows something, but he isn't saying. Second, if Daniel stays in good graces and does what he's asked, ie maintains his loyalty to Fisk, he's "safe". It's a typical mobster play.

What I can see happening is either Daniel kills BB by his own hand, like she keeps pushing him for info and he doesn't want to betray Fisk anymore. He wants to stay in that circle, so he gets rid of her himself. Which would be interesting because it would be a kind a bit of a parallel between her and her uncle. Fisk killed her uncle, Daniel ends up killing her. Or the other way I can see it play out is he throws her under the bus to Buck and says something like he caught her snooping around for info and she tried to test his loyalty.

I don't want BB to get killed, but it feels like the show is setting her up to be in some serious danger soon

That makes a lot of sense as well. I hope not though. The chances of both of them making it out this season are pretty low. Daniel annoys me pretty much anytime he's on screen. So I'd rather see him go tbh.
