That was my impression as well. I guess I really wanted to know if it bounced back at the end.

The only con that is a part of their job is San Diego Comic Con as far as I know. The others they do in their free time and earn money by doing them. EBR is known to have anxiety issues in big crowds so she avoids them save for smaller ones in Europe.

I only just noticed that Once More (From the Top) was finished in October. I really liked that one until future Felicity showed up and then it just started meandering. Has anyone read it the whole way through and is it worth it?

Wasn't the book actually on the island while he was in Hong Kong and he found it when he went back in S4 flashbacks? Stupid, boring storyline that I can't remember.

So, who's the brave soul that will make the sacrifice and watch the final flashback from last year to confirm what happened with Oliver's belongings when he left the island for Russia?

He definitely had it in Coast City. That part I remember clearly. I think he left in on the island before he left it in S4, but I won't vouch for that part. I do seem to remember him leaving a box or a trunk with stuff there before leaving.

There was the episode with Deadshot flashbacks. He wasn't even recurring.

Is it a retcon? Talia said she found Yao Fei's hood. She gave Oliver that plus the suit and the bow he was using for most of S1.

This is how I remember it as well with the hood. Oliver never inherited the full suit, but the hood attached to a let's say vest. And the order of inheritance was just that, Yao Fei-->Shado-->Oliver. I forgot about the bow, but someone on Twitter brought up the same thing recently, and you're right.

I've been trying to jog my memory to see if there was anything to look forward to in 513. Then I remembered that one was shooting when the 100th aired and EK posted some photos and a video from the bunker. https://www.instagram.com/p/BNc_XBZjIlS/?taken-by=dccomics https://www.instagram.com/p/BNdZZ87hagT/?taken-by=dccomics On the plus side: OTA, and Thea and Lance even manage to appear in two episodes in a row. On the minus: No Rory to be seen. On the whatever: No Tinah. Rene obviously gets a job in the mayor's office, what with the suit and all. It seems big on him BTW. I hope they go for a somewhat less ridiculous route and have him as Oliver's bodyguard and not give him an actual role in the administration.

The fun part here is that I can actualy imagine this in a world where Tommy became a doctor. Um, doctor, why are you in the OR in a tux instead of scrubs? -Because I look damn good in one.

I didn't really expect Oliver to run all over Russia in the suit. Maybe Talia is having him run drills?

Good. Because that's exactly why I posted it. :)

I nominate the worktop desk where they are having them get physically close. She was touching his hand this episode. Next step, jumping on top of it.

What a difference three months make. 503 - no touching even when it could have been warranted because of Oliver's injury. 511 - touching for no reason whatsoever.

I enjoy these. One, I like Curtis' humor for the first time in a while. Two, I enjoy how it seems Felicity seems pleased to see Anatoly before he decks Oliver. I really enjoyed the booze you sent over.

Speaking of names, Tinah introduced herself as Tina Boland to Oliver's staff. Is she still going to go by that in public, or will it just be ha, ha, internal joke, psych, my name is really Dinah Drake?

Has the military background been mentioned aside from the casting sides and the write ups that followed them? Maybe it's not a factor, although she could have been military before signing on with CCPD.

She also sticks her hands into her back pants pockets. She is more like Laurel than those highly trained, stable, do-gooder women, you have to admit. Going berserk after losing someone and focusing on revenge? Check. Unstable? Check. Black leather jacket? Check. All she was missing was single white femaling, and Oliver has just handed her that.

@Velocity23, where are those stills from, from the promos that were posted already or is there a new one? Wow, I thought we were at the point where they weren't supposed to be doing that. It's so hard to keep track.

What if Tommy isn't actually Malcolm's son but Claybourne's? Like, Rebecca had a super bad taste in men? And the crack Tommy/Thea ship from s1 wouldn't have to be dead as doornail. Kidding.

It was because Pandora was given as wife to Prometheus' brother, and Oliver and Tommy were brothers in a way, or at least had a sister in common. I think that plus the fact that some want Tommy to be Prometheus is the reasoning behind it.

Eh, Prometheus' beef is with Oliver, not really with SC. It's not like DD last year who chilled while everyone went to CC. SA isn't in the flashback wig when he says it, so no, it's present day.

On top of all that, the stories actually seem to be coming together nicely. There is a danger of nuclear weapons being used, undoubtedly provided by the general - connecting it with Dig -, and the nuclear danger is also a very possible trigger for both Felicity and Rory. Given that the guy Oliver beat to death in the FBs this episode was an arms dealer, it could also fold into the flashbacks in 512.

I am really wondering what the wardrobe department was smoking this season. I thought they tore up Rene's sweater for a hobo look and was honestly wondering if we are in for a reveal that he's homeless and was to embarassed to ask Oliver for a bunk bed in the bunker. Turns out, it's sold that way. With this and BS's boots in the last episode they are making some very odd choices to say the least.
