I was thinking about the Felicity/Diaz fight scene, and I realized something -- Diaz never threatens William directly, does he? Felicity has that "I swear to God, if you hurt him" line and Diaz points out Oliver's not there to stop him, but Diaz's focus seems to be on Felicity, on taking Oliver's wife from him. He doesn't say "wife and son" to imply he'll kill William after her. I wonder if that was deliberate and will come up again or if they just wanted the focus to be on Felicity vs. Diaz. Or maybe I missed/forgot something.

That quote on TVLine about next week’s episode and people moving on and the upcoming Felicity/Diggle tension make me wary about what’ll happen moving forward. Will we get Felicity/BS scenes because no one else wants to help her/Felicity to do anything about Diaz? Yeah, Rene and Curtis are with her in 702, but maybe they’ll stop working with her after Diggle says no, let ARGUS handle it?

The sad thing is I don't think Felicity really has anyone she can talk to except for Oliver. She's not going to share with NTA. Her and Diggle's friendship isn't what it used to be. (Plus, you know, it seems like we're only allowed one--if that--Felicity/Diggle exchange an episode. We got that very briefly at ARGUS.)

Bringing this over from the 701 thread: I would love it if Felicity brings this up when she and Diggle face off in 702 (especially since something rubs me the wrong way about the photo of Diggle seemingly reprimanding her) - that ARGUS is actually really bad about witness protection. Chase found Samantha and William. A teenager bribed a guard to free BS from ARGUS custody. Now, Diaz found Felicity and William when they were supposedly under 24/7 surveillance (that's what Diggle told Oliver when he visited him, right?). Are we to believe that Diaz was able to take down or sneak past the ARGUS agents watching Felicity and William, yet ARGUS was able to get there in time to chase off Diaz? Diggle: "ARGUS can handle Diaz, Felicity." Felicity: "Really?"

I think the reason I'm embracing KM possibly being Olicity's future daughter is that part of me worries if she's in the present, she becomes a Sin-like character for Dinah or BS. And I really don't care to see any more for either of them. Plus, you know, if they're going to bring in a character like Sin, why not just bring back Sin? Just like she knew Laurel wasn't Sara in S3, she could be like, "Nope, that's not Laurel" about BS.

I saw that and the thing is? Even if that's true? You don't say that on social media. You don't say "oh, the actors of a show don't like a large portion of the fanbase." Especially when it's a group of fans who have been vocal supporters of the show (including when other fans were calling for the show to be cancelled, which, if it had happened, guess what, KA wouldn't have a job right now) and who have donated to multiple charities for the actors.

The problem I have with KA is that his negativity has been only directed at Felicity/Olicity. It would be different if he was going around liking posts about his character killing other characters, but he's not. He's singling out Felicity/Olicity and her/the ship's fans. Tweet something negative at him? Must be an Olicity fan. Can't just not like his character because the writing has been awful since his introduction. If he was really just tweeting like his character, he should be liking/tweeting against BS now too since she's supposedly after him this season for what he did to NOT HER FATHER. But you know that's not going to happen because he has all the anti-Olicity fans (including fans of KC/LL of any Earth) cheering him on.

File under "more evidence she could be playing Olicity's future daughter -- or at least a character in the future timeline"? https://www.etonline.com/shadowhunters-star-katherine-mcnamara-teases-kick-ass-arrow-season-7-arc-exclusive-111672

Maybe they can find Sara Diggle while they’re at it. Just because I’m still upset about that change.

Now I’m going to be disappointed if KM isn’t playing Olicity’s future daughter.

I don't know how I'd feel if KM is Olicity's future daughter, but I wouldn't mind whoever she is being part of the future scenes because we have enough people in the present. Unless she takes away from Rene/Dinah/Curtis' screentime. But if she's in the present and adds to it... Ugh.

I wasn't really impressed. Loved the Oliver/Felicity scene, of course. The problem? That and Felicity/William were the only scenes that had any real emotional impact. Loved the parallel fight scene. If the new GA in Star City isn't Roy, then whoever it is trained with him and lesson 1 was "unnecessary flips are necessary." Diaz is still awful. BS' speech made me want her, Rene, Dinah and Curtis to suit up and be caught and for Felicity to make a deal with Watson: "4 vigilantes in prison for the price of Oliver's freedom!" I'm not even surprised we only got a brief Felicity/Diggle scene. That's the norm now. Oh, and don't even get me started on Curtis and his job.

This episode needs about 90% less Rene and Dinah and 100% more Felicity (and William), Roy and the island.

Was that Roy on the island saying "You shouldn't have come here"? Seriously, stop making the important scenes so dark!

I don't trust this guy. Also I haven't understood half he said.

That's all we get from Felicity and William after all the stuff with Rene and Dinah already?

The island regenerates! Or it's another timeline? Or another Earth?

I shouldn't have just shrugged at that, right? I feel like if they wanted us to care about that guy, they should've waited until, I don't know, episode 2 of the season? Or at least not 20 minutes after we met him...

WTF CURTIS IS HEAD OF A DEPARTMENT?! UGH

Thanks for the warning since you're a bit ahead. Pre-emptive "Shut up, Curtis."

If the last scene takes place at the same time as that scene, I hope there's a spotlight on it so we can see every single detail.

It's the magic of Lian Yu...

Was I supposed to recognize that guy on the boat? Because it was way too dark for me to see anything...

"Crazy Dog or something" LOL
