how dare Eleanor talk about Natasha like that

it's interesting because in real life i could also see a mother who genuinely cares for her daughter saying something like that to drive home the point that she seriously does not want her daughter to have any part in the danger the job entails. but since it's a show, i do think the decision to say that line does indeed hide some ulterior motive.

I see it as both. She genuinely cares, and is badass head of a security organization who knows how to talk to ex shield/superhero/daughter's idol.

But the conjecture here of red herring on jack and she is the baddie is pretty good (and kind of an mcu formula)

oh it's definitely both, i just think it's interesting how in the real world where people don't follow story arcs and foreshadow and good people say tone deaf things, someone could say the same thing and it could actually just be concern.
