I'm glad they're not having Tinah moving in with Felicity. That's a huge step and they really know next to nothing about her. Plus, while I am very open to them developing a relationship, I like how Feliciy is approaching her. She's not off putting, but she very clearly does not know Tinah yet and is taking time. If a woman should move in with Felicity, I vote for Thea at this juncture. Then maybe we'd actually get to see them talking every six months instead of getting a vague reference to them having talked off screen every six months.

Neither did I. I know of some cut scene(s) according to the filming people saw, but it wasn't about the two of them.

Plus, the police will be going after GA soon enough. Huh, I thought it was an office setting.

You know, I found it ridiculous to be having WD prep Lance, but I ended up loving the reasoning for him being appointed for the job. So he doesn't cause an international incident in Russia. :) On an unrelated note, I find a lot of the people working on the show to be kind of disengaged at times. Not so the set designer! That was an awesome huge bear ice sculpture in the Tea Room. Two thumbs up.

Season 2: Oliver plans to sacrifice himself to Slade. Felicity and Dig drug him and haul his ass out of there. Season 3: Oliver plans to sacrifice himself to the LoA. Felicity drugs him and the teams attempts to haul his ass out of there. Now that Felicity is starting to exhibit those tendencies, I'll be disappointed if I don't get Oliver and/or Dig drugging her before the season comes to a close.

Someone wrote upthread that Chase actually did acknowledge the person who got the information. I didn't catch it, but I wasn't completely tuned in to that scene, so I'm going to take their word for it.

I just came across these gifs and putting aside the what the eff, have Felicity and Dig really not seen each other until now factor, DR really could have played it with some emotions. Like a smile and shoulder squeeze. I don't know, maybe it was to keep him in the right frame of mind leading up to him almost killing that guy later on. But not gonna lie, it was a let down.

I think Steve oversold those scenes, but the characters really have a nice energy between the two of them. They also highlighted how constricted Susan's role is. Quentin preps with WD and then talks about the interview with WD, but there is no scene with Susan actually conducting the interview or for that matter hearing WD's story. The worst part is then watching the writers try to deal with it on screen. I think it's a bad idea from the character viewpoint, but if they ever do decide to do it, I hope they save it for the show finale so the writers don't have to grapple with the consequences and the viewers don't have to watch them attempting to do it.

I didn't see it like that but as paralleling her to Oliver of yore, seeing her sacrificing herself as a solution. Which did ring some alarm bells, because you don't want to be the person who willingly goes to meet their maker. See going to Slade to get yourself killed and crashing the plane on which you are one. It's not a death foreshadowing from where I'm watching but a clear sign that Felicity is not in a good place. Yeah, even him sleeping with her seemed like he realised that they've been kinda sorta going out for a while and he supposed it was time. Sure, there was nothing good on TV that evening anyway. Sigh. Okay, are we done yet? That was a pretty tame favor Anatoly asked for. Two roughed up thugs and two broken fingers? Really, that's a job for a new recruit. He was just putting Oliver through the motions for the sake of it. He still loves him. I legitimately laughed when Anatoly came round with his minions and they were all rah rah at the end of the scene. So cheesy. Tinah, I think, is not flirty towards Oliver specifically. It seems to be her default setting. There was something flirty about some of her line delivery at the airport with Dig, even though it wasn't directed at Dig. It's strange but not the most awful thing to have happened on this show. They need to train on handling nuclear weapons stat though.

This has some real potential. It's sort of pushing Felicity into the Queens' shoes with the Undertaking and seeing how she is going to react to it. Actually, it sounds excellent. Which is why I'm not going to get my hopes up too much about it. The promo for 513 looks extremely boring.

Do you remember which character? I wasn't around during S3's original airing.

Yes, he was listed as Tommy/Prometheus.

I feel like I've seen them do it before, but I can't be certain.

Anatoly is going to ban Oliver from Russia altogether, isn't he? He brought him a screaming woman who takes down a lot of dudes and, depending on whether Rory suits up, a man in musty old rags.

Yeah, that would have made sense. Maybe it turns out her last name's Ramirez and not Chase.

Apparently it's an episode that (finally) focuses on Chase somewhat, what with Doris Chase appearing.

It seems doubtful one of the executive producers actually watches the show, so it seems like asking for a lot from a reporter to remember something that happened three years ago.

For the love of Baby Cheeses, Steve, it's couldn't care less.

Not to mention factual errors starting with this one right off the bat. I get it's easy to forget them at this point, but WH and PB have been regulars from the start. I do enjoy their photoshopping though, with huge Spartan standing in front of Oliver and Felicity at the altar.

Thanks, I forgot about the time frame for this. Yeah, it was funnier to me when I thought it might be that Lance and Rene know she figured it in this episode and then try to decide who has to break the news in a highly deductive way, like rock-paper-scissors.

There was something about the team knowing somehing that Oliver does not. What if it is this? And the team is actually Lance and WD? Suddenly this sounds really funny to me.

A lot of people presumed all in was about the sex, but it turns out it's about GA? I think I'd prefer the sex.

Too cute.
