Upside Down(side) - "The Day We Almost Died"

There doesn't appear to be any one big upside this week, but there a couple of little ones.  There also are a few possible downsides which might not be as small.

Upsides:
  • Despite the appearance that whatever truce between Alex and Haley ends in potential violence, we somehow get a happy ending between the two.
  • Their story gets a fair amount of airtime (there are 5 stories this week so this is at a premium).
  • The reason Alex is dressed up has to do with her college selection (big picture advancement - but see below).
Downsides:
  • Alex's bodyslamming/tossing of Haley turns out to be unprovoked, making her out to be the bad girl.   No, I'm not rooting for Haley to be totally wrong and get some comeuppance - I'm fine with a likely six of one/half a dozen of the other scenario.
  • Of the five stories, their story clearly gets the least amount of attention.
  • The college selection upside hits, but the potential fight somehow ruins it (e.g. if it's an interview the person conducting the interview shows up right in the middle of it).
OK, the whole college thing is probably just me desperately grasping at straws (this week, anyway), but who knows?
