Definitely like scattering ashes; that was my thought.
I loved how all your predictions re: the baddies came true. Or, well, the one prediction: that they were testing out the Midnight Oil for a big attack.
I understood Peggy saying what she did at the end, and it seems totally her character, and therefore right for the scene, but I wanted to argue with her on the point: acknowledgment isn't just for you; acknowledgment of you is a public thing that strengthens all women, and if he'd made an acknowledgment, it would have put a big dent in the whole department's assumptions, and also would have given them a sign that their superior would respect contributions from whoever made them. ... I know this wouldn't work in-story, but I think in real life it's important. It's great that someone like Peggy has enough sense of self not to need outward acknowledgement, but the outward acknowledgement is important for more than just her.
I am redundant for emphasis :-P
I liked that her nemesis got away, too. It's good to have accomplished women on both sides of the equation.
