I'd rather not do Daddy's Little Girl for this activity slot whatever else happens, and I always like social scenes when you've got something.
Since you seem inclined to play with it, maybe write one of the explore-other-world options we haven't found time for yet? (Like the lava world or somesuch).
Aside from that, I'd enjoy seeing Arcana and crew be the ones to handle that Fallen Branch even if its mentioned offscreen with a vague line of success or saved for a later period when a new inspiration arises to replace Kansas City Brawl, rather than leave it to the PRT, but a cool consolation prize could be seeing Purity and/or Tattletale mentioned as involved in it to show our impact and give a slight feel of "Credit" (for putting them in PRT hands).

Honestly. Why are people so adamant against Daddy's Little Girl? Can we at least god damn see whats in it before completely discarding it? If its nothing but a angstfest then yes toss it to the curb! But seriously folks. We've gotten an opportunity to go for the other questline.
There's *nothing* on what it'll be about. People think it'll be nothing but depressing or some BS like that out of preconceptions.
Why are we so adamant on being canon!Taylor in the level of shoving her head in the sand until things blow up in her face and she has to escalate to deal with the problems? Need I remind you folks what @Silently Watches stated?
How about we take Daddy's Little Girl instead? Seriously. If we take Daddy's Little Girl next week that's it. We only dip into it with no way of progressing further on it or ability to get ahead of potential problems because Arc 14 will be done after next week's events IIRC.
I just want to get a god damned look into the quest for crying out loud. Sinners is done. Go for Daddy's Little Girl quest please.
Get a look into it with the opportunity we have. Then toss it to the curb if you don't like it. If it shows a problem that Taylor can get ahead of all the better.

Danny has hurt Taylor in ways that can never be properly apologized for. Continuing to deal with him will never help anything and his legacy fucking blew itself up.

Honestly just uninterested in Daddy's Little Girl.

Or we do Daddy's Little Girl and maybe, just maybe, it'll give Taylor the final impetus to move on and accept that her father as she knew him is dead. How about that? Maybe it'll be that and we 'll never have to talk about Danny again.
You know what, fuck it.
@Silently Watches can you give any hint at all about what Daddy's Little Girl will entail?

Rather curious to see where this will go. Also, as stated by @aceraptor what is up with the excessive rage against anything to do with Danny?
I mean, if he tries to do something to limit Taylor's freedom (Which is the only plausible reason I can think of) we have established ourselves well enough to just nope on out of that if he tries.

If we could get this, then yes please!
I always felt like some sort of twist might come out of this and it would be very interesting.
A social event can come at anytime and isn't as time sensitive I feel.

Frankly to me this isn't about Danny. Its about Taylor and whether or not she can close the book on Danny and finally move on instead of ending up with maybes. Maybe she could have gotten help from the TSAB. Maybe something else could have been done. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe.
I want to have her confront her issue and move past it instead of burying her head in the sand.

As far as I am concerned, she confronted him and got the needed closure on the doctor visit that indicated his ailment. Which was itself a few visits after his initial injury and the fight they had.
I've also not really seen an argument defending "closure" as a concept, just seen it asserted as a self evident good..... whats wrong with cutting out a negative influence in her life she no longer needs anyways? Lacey and her husband are little more than roomates as it is, Taylor is on the threshold at minimum of being self sufficient and grown, her relationship with Danny was only notches above "ignoring each other" before the fight, whatever the game design questions behind it his failure to come out and invite us into Privateer events was as much his fault as Taylor's lack of forcefully inserting herself... I've not been sold on what value there is to be gained from engaging with Danny and hoping for the best that we don't see equivalently in any other character we could spend the time on.
And even if DLG blows up as a result of focusing on other activities? I'm more interested in seeing Taylor approach it the way she did dropping the "Long Live the King" questline (cut our losses, these people aren't our problem) than I am in seeing a tearful reunion or self-recriminations.
And visiting a disabled mentally-gone relative in a care home? That doesn't sound like fun entertainment GENRE I want to seek out, at a glance, I'd much rather the entertainment genre of Taylor and her friends exploring a volcano world with their superpowers. Lifetime channel isn't for me.

IMO that's the weakest possible argument for Daddy's Little Girl. As far as I can see, Taylor already moved on. She rarely remembers about Danny's existence and when she remembers, she doesn't demonstrate much emotions. She doesn't tear herself apart mulling over whether or not he ever remembers her.
As far as I see, she doesn't need to seek closure, because she already has it.
I would prefer an additional social event with the Adepts, because remember,
Purity + Breakdown + Cape Boosters + Barret Boosters = Ragnarok.
Okay, can you point to where Taylor actively thinks about Danny and where 'she doesn't demonstrate much emotions'?
Because honestly, you say that she's already moved on and I'm saying that she's just repressing her emotion and avoiding the problem like Taylor often does until said problem comes up and smacks her in the head with a clue-by-four.

My reasons are similar to @Racoras. Taylor may be good at repressing things she shouldn't, but I honestly don't believe that this is one of those instances. If she is repressing, then she is cutting out an influence in her life that, as others have stated, she genuinely doesn't need. If she isn't then she has already moved on in her own way. The fact that it Is difficult to point out specific instances of either possibility is telling in its own way.
Further, Taylor's situation is hardly unique or particularly compelling to me to read about. Parents and Children estrange themselves form one another literally every day. Sometimes they are able to make up, but more often than not they never do, and it's almost a coin flip over whether or not either party ends up regretting the break when it comes to fate or chance that they are no longer able to for one reason or another.
