I'll laugh the whole weekend over the fact that you looked up the size of brussel sprouts. Which are delicious, by the way.

They are holding hands in the gif. You can see it as they start to lift their heads. So basically they've been screwing for years before Nanda Parbat. :)

We missed an important piece of information. Oliver's arms get banged up but good in the next episode. This is the one where he whips a guy, right? Now, I'll just skip over the bitching about lacking sleeves as protection and skip over to headcannonig about Felicity soothing his aches.

Last episode there was a mention of some erotic handholding being foreplay in the Smoak-Queen household. Look at what we have here.

Exactly. Plus she looked contrite at the beginning of the ep when Oliver reacted calmly to her snark about him learning to code. That one looked as a silent I'm-sorry to me too.

Does he bring her over for Oliver and Felicity to babysit?

Aw. I saw the thing about the bed but the chair just tips it over the edge for me. Space. Yeah, right. I don't even blame Felicity for being scared of the intensity of their feelings, stupid dopes in love. Source

I'm not sure when the set photos came out, but it's a fair assumption since she was living in Central City last season. And I hope she's not reckless enough to relocate to Star City with her child when everybody is fleeing.

Poor guy. And she set him up to do it in company. I noticed the same thing about Felicity's pyjama pants, but then @calliope1975 said this and it makes sense: Well, I still think Alex will suggest a shirtless calender to draw in voters. If he knows what he's doing.

By the way her arm's positioned, I have them either holding hands or her having a hand on his lower back.

If she was in Felicity's closet, at least there's a selection of boob dresses.

I almost can't recognize Donna. What's this madness with properly fitted, non-exposing clothes? Somebody hand the woman a sequined low-cut top. God.

I think I figured out why Ray is in the episode. So that it's revealed he was not the one messing with the computers in the lair. Opening up the question of who was. Dun dun DUN.

I'm still not convinced that Oliver really killed Vlad. He might have just used his trick of faking death and this way, he'll slowly be "killing" the slaves while stashing them away in the cave. If he did, well, it was self-defense, so I'm not bothered. The thing I found most confusing during that segment was Conklin's reaction. Conklin has been shown as a mean SOB, yet he's clutching his pearls, all how dare you, that Oliver offed one of the slaves. What? Somebody asked many posts ago what Poppy did for food. Oliver gave her a crash course in berry gathering when he brought her to the cave.

So I just saw this on Tumblr and talk about missed relationships that could have been mined there. Just the idea of Donna and Moira meeting and being forced to interact is such a deep well. But then there's also the possibility of Moira getting jealous of Oliver developing an easy rapport with Donna, or Felicity getting protective of her mom. Source

Quentin was already at a bar at least once nursing a club soda. I think it was eason 1. I remember Laurel finding him there and thinking he was off the wagon, but then tasted soda. It's got to be season 1, she was the one more likely to be caught at a bar in season 2. So I suppose he can deal with it.

Well, Felicity's trademark bright lipstick is missing here. Already eaten off on the ride over or strategically skipped for just such occasions?

Who will explain emojis to Lance, Felicity or Oliver? Picture Lance sneaking into the lair. Psst, is Laurel around? I need to discuss something important. -What? Do you have news about the Ghosts?! God, we could really use something. - No, what's this thing mean? Is it smiling or laughing? Sweating? How does a man respond to that?! -...What?

She is supposed to be in the episode. And frankly, it pisses me off. Where is Lyla? Everyone looks great, why isn't she there dressed to the nines? No way is he staying there. It's a matter of sets. He can't be at PT if he's pretending to be dead and they're not going to build him a new set for the two episodes. Why he's there this episode and not ingesting enormous amounts of liver in an undisclosed hotel and also infecting the Loft o' Love is beyond me, however. Get away. But yay, party!

I'm completely with you. I actually laughed because Ray wasn't the main player in his own storyline, but an instrument of Felicity's and by extension Oliver's. Which is pretty much how it played with Sara being brought back, but due to my feelings about the characters involved in each story, my reactions are diametrically opposite. Sara is sidelined for Laurel in her own resurrection? Boo. A pox on your house. Ray is sidelined for Oliver and Felicity? Ahahaha.

Yeah, where are the marks from the chains choking him? I could have used Felicity fussing about him in the end.

Yeah, I really don't see Oliver keeping that a secret. I don't really think he would want to, but even if he did, he's pretty inept at lying to Felicity. She'd just level him with a look like she did after he tried to lie about making dinner plans with Donna and the cat's out of the bag.

I love the costume department for Donna's wardrobe. It's so bad it's good and it makes perfect sense for the character. And her platform flip flops with transparent straps. Oh my God. So awful. They were awesome.

Yes. I'm all for capers. We need more of this. Although Felicity won't be able to pose as a Big Belly Burger delivery girl anymore, seeing as she's much more visible these days. She'll just have to use her public persona. And refer to herself in the third person while doing so to creep Dig out. What, she already caught Oliver's overblown sense of guilt, no reason why she wouldn't have picked this up as well. I'm heading towards the end of season 2 in my rewatch and I also really loved them breaking into Applied Sciences to blow it up.
