What makes you so sure she's going to come back, anyway? Well it's complicated. And it's mostly a hunch, but I'll do my best to explain.

For one, there's just so many things to do with that character, and it's hard to believe they'd just throw her away.

Second, look at the first few episodes of this season, it's somewhere within the first three. We see Coulson and the team looking at a screen on which they've discovered her multiple identities. Rosalind Price isn't even her real name, and one of her former names was Margaret Campbell. And after the Lash attack when Lincoln Campbell's picture was released to the public, she was shown his picture by Banks. And the look on her face when she saw that picture was definitely an "Oh s***" one.

Additionally, Coulson found a baseball bat at Rosalind's house. I don't recall if she said anything about it. But when Lincoln's sponsor friend found out about him, he picked up a baseball bat. Now, that could be absolutely nothing, and it probably is. But a lot of shows will put little links like this for whatever reason.

Rosalind said she met Gideon Malick at NASA in 2001. Obviously that had something to do with Project Distant Star Return, but isn't kinda weird how Will Daniels was there too and they didn't make any connection? Rosalind said her husband died of cancer, but what if (being the spy she is) she said to gain the sympathy card, and it worked? Will could have been her husband for all we know.

Lastly, in the Secret Warriors comic on which this season is based, Nick Fury started the team instead of Coulson. And SPOILERS, but Nick Fury's ex wife wound up being Madame Hydra after several misdirections. Honestly at this point if they don't give us a twist that big, I'll be disappointed.
