I guess they forgot Malcolm actually got the loft. No way do I see Felicity staying in his place knowingly and without Oliver.

This is a shot from the extended promo. People on Twitter are saying it's the "daughter" actress.

I think it still counts since he put the missile in motion. The last scene definitely indicated that it worked.

She was. It was always her go-to tactic. In SC under attack, during the, I think, Markovia business with the Suicide Squad. I always thought she lacked subtletly. Not so much now that I know she had nukes at her disposal.

Exactly what I'm thinking.

I'm all for her to start up her own things, but Felicity has accomplished so effing much in six months. It's extremely near sighted to dock her for the use of the corporate jet. If anything, they could have appointed someone to handle the day-to-day operations. Replacing Felicity is not easy. Oh, Curtis can do it? Gee, I wonder who he'll chose, the people who planned to fire him using his own algorythm or the woman who saved his and his co-workers' jobs. I hope you have fun looking for cardboard boxes to rent, fellas. This. Although I don't think she could have swayed them even if she had showed up.

My Father, Woody Allen, and the Danger of Questions Unasked by Ronan Farrow This is downright chilling. Jesus. Sun-Yi is even more of an idiot than I thought she was. There are link to other articles in this one, including the story that Dylan, the victim, wrote.

This is an extremely painful analogy. How far we've come. Mr Dennis is a petty prick, who I have no doubt counts how much post-its she goes through. The meetings she's missed would have been a chance to defend her actions, but I still believe the board on the whole had the biggest issue with her undercutting their profits with the spinal implant. Which I believe is extremely near sighted of them, but there it is.

It makes sense if Darhk wants to burn the world down. It would take a lot of missiles to accomplish that. I was thinking that Darhk being alive for a bajillion years made him learn how to do magic without the jaundiced look. Yet he developed them in this episode as well. I would theorize it was the effect of juicing up on recent kills, but then Oliver had them last week and he didn't kill anyone. Will no one think these things through?

9. was terrific. As for Felicity getting fired, it was primarily because her hippy plan for the spinal implant was undercutting their bottom line. But hey, it's a nice match to Oliver's hippy plan to clean up the bay during his mayoral run. His & hers. The Smoak-Kuttler clan, aka Stealth Ninjas. A nice bit of character detail is Felicity calling him Noah throughout the episode. He was Dad when he first showed up. You messed up, dude.

Oliver Jonas Queen, 30, Star City Founder and diamond member of the Felicity Smoak fan club since October 2012. Ranked number one worldwide in Felicity Meghan Smoak-trivia. Planned a fake wedding to his idol and aspires to win her back someday. Loves Felicity Smoak™ cuddles. Source

I'm not saying they will get married, although with the pacing of this show it's not out of the question. What I'm saying is that I'm sold on Oliver seeing the light. He just needs to verbalize that to Felicity. Want me to make the Donna thing worse and even more Laurel adjecent? I think there's more than a decent chance we'll find out she lied to Felicity about something to do with Noah next week.

I thought it was common knowledge she had a shit ton of work done. She's looked worse. This feels like a toned down version.

I'm not so convinced, but even if it does happen like this, she will totally have Oliver in her corner to help her through it. That works for me.

Oh, they'll definitely include flashbacks in the finale. They want to line up Oliver taking down the past evil dude with the current evil dude. It's their way. But I am lead to believe that my longtime wish for Oliver to kill Poppy will come true in the next episode. Talk about a course correction. If this is the last thing I predict correctly on this show, I'll be okay. Oliver has totally surpassed Dig in the relationship advice category. On the one end there's Dig Oh-Just-Give-Her-Time-She'll-Come-To-See-How-Your-Lying-Makes-Sense, on the other there's Oliver-Don't-Lie-To-Your-Badass-Wife. I'm giving him and Felicity my blessing for a quickie wedding as soon as he says the same things to her. Despite the repetetiveness of Thea's storyline, that scene with Donna and Lance is my least favorite. The acting was on point, I even get Donna's stance, if not her coming down this hard on Lance over the daughter he's just lost. What gets at me was the show selling it as her being 100% in the right. Which she is not in this situation. If Lance hadn't agreed to it so quickly, I think I'd be okay with it. Then it would just be one character's point of view which makes sense considering her experiences.

I sincerely doubt that will be all the episode will be about. But it's not a good promo, I agree. They should have put other stuff in it as well. Also, hopefully Thea is bluffing.

They're late. I think she's already in London. I guess they had more famous people on the beach to cover earlier in the week.

There were once again callbacks to earlier episodes and seasons. The scene with, I don't know, followers in indistinguishable suits being directed to their new homes was creepely like a concentration camp and thereby a callback to 409 and the gas chamber. Then, there was that awesome, awesome PT job, which is a callback to season 1 in the best ways. Everybody just fell into place. And even Dig at the lair made sense this time. Oliver should be able to handle field work better than he does, Felicity and Noah were crucial and Dig's got to be better with the coms than Lance. Whose appearance was super fun in this instance. Lastly, nuking that town was a total callback to the season 1 finale, my favorite of the four so far, for me. The team won, but lost at the same time. I am a big fan of that beat. And Felicity's reaction got me the most in the episode. I wasn't into him before, but he was fun even before he started dropping truths on Thea this time. Lonnie Machin, a card-carrying feminist. I didn't really see Oliver as rattled, more like he finally GOT what he did wrong in his relationship with Felicity, namely, not letting her in completely and trying to comportmentalize his life. Now, if only we can get him to have the conversations he had with Dig and Noah with Felicity before the season ends. Malcolm is going to develop such an obsession with her. He's alwas given off a vibe that he's lowkey turned on by her. I can only imagine it ratcheting after this. Nifty catcher's mit, by the way, dude. My biggest hope for the next episode is to find out that Mr Dennis took a quick trip to that town that was nuked. I really need that bastard dead before the season ends.

What Wouldn't I Do, the story in which Felicity intervenes when Slade kidnaps the Queens and gets injected with Mirakuru in the process, has been updated. I haven't read the update yet. It's been a while, so I'll need to reread at least parts of the previous chapter to remember how things were keft off. http://archiveofourown.org/works/3557147/chapters/7833746

I don't follow The Flash, so I'm not doubting you. I just didn't know what they were.

There's more at the link. http://sentence-fragments.tumblr.com/post/144212110066/the-saga-continues-an-ode-to-emilybuttrickards

Hee.

Airships?

Or possibly to Anarky. But it definitely sounds like Thea. And nobody else should have anyone showing up, really? Felicity is looking for Noah.

I think it's a hop. Which is fitting, because he seems to be in his focused mode. Lyla Effing Michaels is all this is above all our pay grades and he, let's do it! I love it.
