RES-ISLAND

[Arnold Zwicky]

from an ad for a tv show (i don't know which one), caught on 1 July:

... a troubled teen nobody has a clue where she is.

this has a resumptive pronoun "she" in a position where "extraction"
is barred; "a troubled teen (that/who) nobody has a clue where ___ is"
is totally wretched.
