Primal Slayer

Diggle being mad at Oliver stems past just him keeping a secret. He trusted a known enemy and put everyones lives in danger most notably his daughters. They aren't quite on the same level yet.

I didn't see a problem with Diggle opening up to Laurel after some push. He is at odds with his bff at the moment and his other bff is practically "guilty" by association. It's been something he's been keeping to himself for a while and it has probably been weighing on him so he opened up to someone who was in a similar situation and who he has grown to trust over the past 8 Months. Right now him keeping the secret isn't hurting anyone since it is pure research. Laurel isn't going to betray his trust since she is his friend. Oliver has kept multiple secrets for various reasons that others have kept and has kept secrets for other people. All of them have done it.

If this is deliberate then I'm fine with it if they plan on going somewhere with it.

I saw it the opposite way. Diggle is basically the equivalent to Ollie to me.

I want them to get a good balance. They want them to have cute moments each episode, they can find a way to do it that doesn't just have to involve them. Have Oliver give Felicity her lunch, kiss her on her cheek, and go off and then she talks to L/T/D about whatever.

I haven't noticed it until now so now it is something I feel they should remedy every now and then.

Instead of combining their coupling scenes (sometimes) with adding the others to give some semi personal scenes with, they just leave and when it is all of them it just strictly work.

Maybe this will improve with next week but started to rewatch this episode and they always have everyone leave the room to give Olicity their cute moment which ends up cutting Felicity off from the others.

This season isn't even half way over yet so I wouldn't say that the show is forgetting that in order to make room for others. We have new dynamics to work with now and explore which I don't mind but those two still have 21 episodes to interact with one another.

I'm sure we will get a flashback to them meeting. Though I rather Laurel be the one to seek him out but can't change things up to much.

I'm most likely the only one but I am enjoying the little scenes we get with Laurel/Diggle or well the two van scenes we've gotten from S3/4. Hopefully we get more of the two bonding.

I think DD must've promised him that he could save Star City and bring back its glory. He just happened to leave out how he planned on doing it.

It's selfish, no argument there but it is one of those things where some people are willing to take that risk. Laurel doesn't see Thea as permanently damaged which is enough for her to deal with the possible consequences since in her mind it won't be a forever type of situation. At least that's how i view her decision.

That's the problem you run into when you have them face a powerful enemy, how do you top that? Oliver can't only encounter 200 year old enemies or meta humans. Oliver probably underestimated Anarky which is what caused him to lose.

If i knew they would have to live the rest of their life with extreme side effects i may be more weary but the LP is still very new to the team and they don't know if this is something that will go away eventually somehow.

Since they are making up their own rules when it comes to how corpses rot away, the body will have to be fully attached and magic beyond the pit will probably have to be involved.

Everyone is selfish in general. Villains just take it to a whole nother level.Unfortunately the writers don't think things through and life to go the simple route for a of things.

While the writers failed at properly conveying it, i can only use myself to fill in the character blanks. Laurel had come to terms with Saras death but hearing of this magic cure just brought back all those emotions and made her go backwards temporarily. I could only pray that they lesson the blow next week by writing it better but i know they won't with how fast they already played this storyline.

I wonder why Felicitys company is losing money but then they glance over Oliver just spending money to buy the truck and are having Felicity be this multi millionaire. Did she cut her salary significantly?

Yeah probably won't address it. Probably by the same private jet they used for Thea.

Remember 3b? Where they came and went to NP like it was right around the corner? Not hard to find, takes like 5 mins.

When Oliver first encounters Anarky and ends up getting hit by a car and brushing it off.

They turned Ra's into a whiny baby who threw a hissy fit when he his new shiny toy didn't do what he wanted him to do. Not to mention they made him look like a fool with thinking that Oliver was Al Sah-Him.

I know how everyone loves stunt doubles lol, I got a good laugh out of Amells stunt double hiding his face during the chase scene.

It isn't as if Quentin forgave Laurel in 1 minute, he has been pissed at her for months and their relationship isn't 100%, just as Laurel had to face consequences for her being a drunk and having everyone quit on her and her having to deal with Tommys death because she wanted to get her clients papers from CNRY.
