You're assuming these revelations are going to show up at all on screen. These people don't have a great track record with the stuff they talk about actually happening.

If Lyla is somehow involved in Helix, I'll be wondering why she didn't just go to Felicity directly and ask her to get this stuff as head of ARGUS? Unless we're supposed to believe Felicity not wanting to go along with her and Oliver's plan to break out Diggle shook Lyla's faith in her or whatever. And if Diggle has an issue with Lyla doing shady things or asking Felicity to do shady things, like...has he been absent these past four ARGUS-filled years?

That's why she put it in parens.

It definitely was.

Ooop - never mind!

Baby looks like a...well, baby, and Johnny looks like he's 40, which is ick.

Hopefully he disappears into it forever.

I wish MG had actually dismissed her feelings on O/L. Her death would've been less pathetic, that's for sure.

Since they'd been traveling at the beginning of the hiatus, and ended up in Ivy Town after traveling for at least a month or two, they still hadn't been there very long, and I imagine Felicity was maybe hoping their stay there was temporary, and pushed off any confession about being unhappy until it seemed as if that was going to be a more permanent situation (like after a proposal), probably hoping Oliver would get bored and want to go back to Star City like she did.

Yes, I don't think anyone here is arguing that point. She was happy with Oliver, but missed her life having a purpose, which it didn't have in Ivy Town, but did have in Star City - she said as much in 4x01 when she admitted to lying to Oliver about what she'd been up to.

So? If Oliver had actually gotten around to proposing, I imagine she would've said something then. I doubt she would've stayed in Ivy Town unhappy forever without saying anything.

Did she not do that in 4x01? I'm guessing she didn't do it earlier because the show doesn't start until October, and that was the plot point that made them stay in Star City.

Because she knew they wanted different things? This was pretty much addressed in 4x01.

He's presumed dead, isn't he? I thought he stood on top of a building that blew up or something.

It's Zoe.

If that scene of Diggle and Felicity in the trailer is of them getting captured - he doesn't. Talia's non-league league people are surrounding them, so it looks like it's a multi-person kidnapping operation. ETA: I haven't had coffee yet - I just realized maybe you meant that just kidnapping everyone and taking them to the island was ridiculous in general - not the logistics of it - in which case I agree, haha.

No, it's 5x22 (the quote you were referring to didn't indicate an episode number, but he referenced being on set "last night" for it. That was during filming for 23):

I was just trying to figure out what was what - is Oliver protecting her from the blast (or whatever that is) in 19 - like at the end? Is that why they get stuck? I guess they must be in some weird part of the lair that I don't think we've ever seen before, because that purple light is there too. It wouldn't make sense for them to relocate at that point, haha.

No clue, unless maybe the lair is cold or something? Or maybe the light he's holding is hot? The purple light indicates it's from 20, and the background looks like it's in the lair, so he wouldn't need to hide his fingerprints or anything. He's wearing gloves in 5x19, so maybe that's at the beginning of 20 and he just hasn't taken them off yet?

This has to be something different, because in the trailer Oliver's leaning up against a brick wall, not this thing.

Delivering a corpse encased in concrete to the mayor's office is so comically extra, haha.

I don't know how they're situated, but I do think they're sitting on the floor.

How sad for them.

Could be! We didn't get to see the moment Moira found out Oliver was alive. We did see the moment Laurel did though, so maybe they're retconning that? Or maybe we're gonna get a whole new scene of her telling him she wishes he'd rotted in hell a lot longer, haha.

It's not MG's - his answer was just this:
