Acceleration

Can someone please explain to me why Nova doesn’t make a effin’ call to her sister, who would help her out in a heartbeat? Like…the neighbor literally asked her, you call your sister who has been dealing with the law and who I even think was a lawyer at some point? (I honestly don’t remember what charley worked with) Ralph-angel…I am tired. I wish the drama could actually come from these characters being honest with each other instead of this weird omissions that they do. micah and isiah, I am here for it. I am here for Hollywood making sense. I am here for Billies smack down of Vi.

Considering the fact that their wedding was first interrupted, then co-opted by Oliver and Felicity for some random double wedding, this is the breadcrumb that WestAllen-fans deserve. After all the garbage the frankly racist part of the fandom has put Candace/Iris through (looking at all the Snowbarry-stans with the biggest side eye) and especially since next season might be the last, this is honestly the right time if it were ever to happen (and I was not expecting it at all)

I actualy recognize myself in a lot of that? I went on the apps (or webpages back then), when I was 15 as I just started to realize that I was in love with one of my male classmates, so I find the ages and the talk very realistic. It's problematic to say the least, but realistic that a boy like Rahim would be on the apps and claim to be older. You can usually spot them pretty quick anyway and since you can't really speak or connect with someone else over that part of your life, the apps tend to be the first place you're at. If a Victor would've existed in my universe, I probably would've done the same as Rahim and reached out or at least tried to be in his orbit.

You're not! I am also watching and am more in waiting-to-see-the-season-unravel.

I believe she decided to foster one of her patients late last season (Joey is his name, right?)

I really, really really don’t like any of Eric’s suitors. I actually hate Adam with passion because they keep trying to sell me on his redemption and as a black queer man, I find it highly problematic that Adam is sorta presented as the better alternative to Rahim, who is also annoying the hell out of me. I like everyone on the show besides Otis, Adam, the principal, Jakob (as a Swede, the actor Mikael Persbrandt is just a big no) and Rahim. These five character’s are just grating, even tho I get their function to the story, I just can’t stand them.

Why am I getting teary-eyed at this entire episode? DAMMIT SHOW! But in all honesty, this was great! I know it didn't move the episode forward in the obvious sense, but it really was a treat to get to spend time with Chidi and fall in love with him all over again

I just had to post this entire thread that explains so much about the show and the many, MANY issues that plagued the show from the very start

I really don't get why people think Rafael was being irrational??? Granted, I'm not really married to the idea of Jane ending up with neither guy, but I feel like everyone is expecting all of them to be these extremely rational people in a very sticky situation. Rafael was patient with Jane and gave her the space to to process when Jason entered the picture. The fact that Michael was an issue that arose and yet again, he made the honestly reasonable demand that she send in the divorce papers. I feel like, either way, she'd need to get to learn who Michael 2.0 is, because this guy doesn't like cubanos, which tells me that the writers are either going for a Jafael endgame or they are building up to something very interesting with the format and as some suggested in the spoilerthread (this is only speculation) that there is a real ending and a "narrative ending", suggesting that the show might be the telenovela version of Janes real life story? I don't like the love triangle that much, but I gotta say, in this situation, every character is acting as actual human beings would and it tracks, based on what we know about them. I don't see Michael as a bad guy for wanting Jane back, I don't see Rafael as unreasonable for asking Jane to move out (since he knows she always has a space with both Alba and with her parent) especially since he always lost in the battle for Jane's heart previously. I do question Jane a lot more, but if I put myself in her shoes, I wouldn't know how to act or what to do either. I do believe though that I would send in the divorce papers, mostly because that marriage really did end when Michael died. If they were to get back together, which I honestly wouldn't mind, I would like for them to start fresh. So for me, I get why Rafael felt that he had to protect himself and I can imagine that had she just sent in the papers and still been honest with him about the conflicting emotions, I feel that he'd probably respond better. But we'll never know... I am still excited about this season though and can't believe it's our final hours with these lovely characters!

Yeah, why is that??? Not to be a judge, but her hair does look good from what I can see, but for some ungodly reason they keep insisting on putting her in these really really really bad wigs and they seem to be getting worse every episode. I find myself being more distracted by that because even for the character, it doesn't make any sense.

Urgh. This is probably What’s gonna happen, which is why the reminded us that Ralph is one of the bus metas. These writers truly do suck. They have so many compelling original characters but can’t seem to be able to write for them so they move on to their next plaything and Also seem to think that this version of Ralph is charming or deserving of all this propping.

I am not surprised and honestly, I don’t feel any sympathy for him Outside of the fact that he’s a human being, but daaaaamn. The thought of rewatching Glee at this point is painful, because I used to get so much joy of watching it and being snarky about it online, now all I see is Cory and being creeped out by Mark.

Agreed. Some of these quotes just confirmed my suspicions about him and now Imma bit more worried what's gonna happen this season...

Based on the spoilerpics that have leaked, I would say that your wish? Definitely your command. Without saying anything about anything, things are going to change from where they were in the christmas special.

I see a lot of people questioning why May is at Hydra, but I think it makes perfect sense. Since she was the first one to enter the framework, they had to give her "something to fight for". So, I am assuming that the reason for Hydras uprising is because May needs to work within the belly of the beast and be in a constant fight, as that would keep her calm, being undercover. And from there, the rest of the framework was built? I just have to say that this entire episode, from start to finish, really got me. It was well-written, well acted and really cool. I am not even upset at seeing Ward again, because this is a new(ish) setup for the character and the stronger storyline possibilities (Bless Lincoln, but his character was dull). That hug though, been rewatching that sequence and Maybots scene over and over and over again...
