I'll admit, I had to look up "asphodel". The sweetness of a daffodil seemed a strange juxtaposition against the last-line threat of violence. I feel a bit stupid asking, but what am I missing?
In Greek myth asphodel flagged the fields of the underworld and was a funeral flower. What appeared to be a standoff but in reality was the Swat team convincing themselves the perpetrator of the Dance Studio massacre had committed suicide before they chanced being blown to Kingdom Come by a bomb in smashing their way into the panel van.
