I think she's probably conning them. But I figured they'd do their typical promo thing (like at the end of S3 when they ended whatever ep with the group being poisoned and then the preview showed them all alive) and spoil that it's Black Siren early - this just seems mean, haha.

If this version of Laurel really is Black Siren - then releasing that clip is a really, really shitty thing to do to Laurel's fans given that they're playing it like the real Laurel is somehow back.

Okay, I remembered this, but didn't recall seeing her again - but do recall So I guess she did get the Ted Grant treatment, @Primal Slayer.

Seriously though - what happened to Evelyn?! Is she still alive or what?

Long enough for him to get out of rehab, see her, and then start drinking again because wtf is his life.

Also - what happened to Evelyn?

I mean, there's nothing at all suggesting that he is. And he's a moron, so this is totally something he'd do? It's just foolish hope that there's more to it than this idiocy, I guess. LOL

The EPs haven't had any issues screwing with them before, why start now?

Oliver is a level 10 moron and I love(d?) him despite that fact, but what in the actual hell is this reporter storyline? It goes to show how awful the writing is that I legit can't tell if he a) is the kind of moron who repeatedly opens up to someone he knows wants to screw him (literally and figuratively) despite being warned about it, b) knows she can't be trusted and is actually playing her, c) was playing her but really likes her after they had drinks at the local VFW, or d)...something combination of those things, haha. Anything is possible! I'm going with A tho.

DAMN IT LARRY

Yeah, it's in the latest mod note.

The show is gonna treat it as whatever it needs whenever it needs it, whether it makes sense or not, haha.

I think it's probably them visiting Curtis in the hospital.

My guess: It was red. Or "I killed Billy."

I wonder if the show's gonna remember that as far as Mayo's concerned he's already met Oliver? If so, I guess it could be played for laughs, with Oliver having no idea who Mayo is. ETA: or what @insomniadreams88 wrote. Should have refreshed the page before commenting!

I'll take both!

Yeah, I was trying to figure out if there was a way they hadn't met yet. Since Mayo has yet to meet Oliver himself onscreen, it seems like that's what it'll be.

Did Oliver meet Mayo onscreen as himself? Or just that one time when Mayo called him as Green Arrow? I haven't watched a few eps.

Was that Prometheus or the Green Arrow? I couldn't tell.

Can't wait for more of Barry Allen's Timeline Changing Power Hour.

He didn't. This is all he wrote about it:

Sorry, I misread - I thought you were talking about Roy breaking up with Thea on Oliver's orders earlier in the season. I'm not sure what you're getting at here, though. Oliver definitely engineered the first breakup - your headcanon aside, at the end of the 2nd season, Thea asked Roy about the Arrow, and he said he didn't know anything about him. Unless I'm not remembering something, didn't Roy tell that lie on his own? If he was getting ready to leave town with Thea for good, there wasn't any reason to just say, "I'm done with the Arrow" and leave it at that.

They reconciled at the end of S2 for about 5 minutes, but then Thea took off because she found out Roy was working with the Arrow after he told her he was done with all of that (or something along those lines) - he told her during the Mirakudude siege that he loved her and wanted to leave with her but there was something he had to take care of before they left - I think that's when she found his vigilante stuff. That's why she wound up leaving with Malcolm.

Yeah, as per usual, the what-if fails because of Malcom. Did he not go to Nanda Parbat after Rebecca was killed? What happened with The Undertaking, which was well underway before Oliver and Robert got on the Gambit? I mean, no way did Robert and Moira get out of that situation with a relationship with Malcolm intact, so did The Undertaking still happen? Are they all just shitty, irredeemable people who had no qualms about what they got involved with and murdered a buttload of poor people? Seems like the Glades are still around since Thea had Verdant (and since there was an Arrow in that world), unless we're to believe that the club wasn't in the Glades. Why they couldn't have just called it a fantasy world or something of the like IDK (which yeah, makes for less interesting copy for the ep summary, but they seemed to not even know how to refer to it in the real world outside of the dream). This show, man.

I've missed the past few episodes - is Oliver bound by some kind of pact to stay part of the Bratva? Somehow I don't think they'd just let him leave if he wanted to. I'm guessing maybe he does something big for Anatoly, and he grants him an exit or something of the like?
