I haven't seen anything indicating she quits the team. The opposite, in fact - unless there's some spoiler I haven't seen, but she's still with them as of the ep they're currently shooting.

I kind of got that feeling from his interactions with Willa during the Q&A. This is colored of course by my belief that he is actually going to die, haha. And after Ray tells Felicity that he's going to take Oliver down, I hope she a) breaks up with him post-haste (unless she goes Moira Queen on him and gets closer to keep him under her thumb) and b) commences with RUINING HIS LIFE

Oh man. If he does wind up turning him into the police knowing that Felicity works with him? Hahaha, what a shitbag. I hope it happens because I want Ray to do something terrible and non Gary-Stu-ish.

Yeah, this seems likely. Did you see the part that someone from EW tweeted about regarding Ray wanting to take the Arrow down? I wonder if it happens after his reputation gets smeared or in 3x17, when Atom and Arrow "clash" or whatever.

^Yeah, that could be. And the way this season is going, they'd probably want to give Oliver more angst if she got hurt because she was defending him.

She's not. Lance and the SCPD are in the foundry - she's standing behind Oliver and seems to get hurt and/or arrested.

Yeah, that's definitely a cop arresting/pushing her or whatever he's doing. And she could be upset about Oliver getting arrested, although surely Lance would make sure she was taken in too since he knows for sure she's been working with him. I hope this clip (if it's ever released) shows enough to be able to tell what's happening.

I thought Cisco and Joe came to Starling City? They were on the Arrow set with Laurel dressed as BC, weren't they?

First comment: I really hope so. Second: I really can't tell either. But if she is being detained they're being awfully rough with her, and usually they don't come at you from the front if you're not resisting. Felicity seems like the kind who wouldn't resist (IMO, although it's tough to say what she'd do when panic sets in) - the poster who was at the panel said it looked like she got hurt. Which ep is it when the foundry gets blown up again? Is it 19?

Well, AK did state (again) that at the end of S3 the show would never be the same. So I guess we're resurrecting the dead now. And if that's Shado and not some clone (maybe Sara IS coming back as a clone - could that have something to do with the Omega virus?), then she looks pretty good for being shot in the head and left for who knows how long.

Someone who was at PF said that Shado is alive in the flashbacks, and there's a still of someone who definitely looks like her, so... I don't know.

Someone on Twitter posted a pic of the reel and it looks like Felicity gets hurt? Either she's hurt and a police officer is pushing her out of the way, or she's being detained (but the cop is coming at her from the front). Think it's okay to link to her twitter since the trailer isn't out yet? I don't want to screen cap the pic since it's hers, IDK.

There was a spoiler that Atom and Arrow clash over how to deal with some kind of problem, so I guess Ray doesn't like what Oliver's doing? So despite the fact that he's been trying to emulate him, now that he's got his super suit he's going to bring him down?

In other words, that's probably what it is, haha

Okay, I'm sorry. Regarding the article by Natalie Abrams about the sizzle reel - why exactly is Ray going to try taking down the Arrow? Didn't he say several times that he wanted to get out there and "do what the Arrow is doing" or some other such nonsense? And now that Lance has found his way into the lair, I guess we know why it goes away. I wonder if SCPD blows it up or if Team Arrow does?

I'm actually surprised that was so Arrow centered - very few mentions of Ray or crossovers, so that was good. And they all seem to love him, but being around John Barrowman must be exhausting. I wonder if he's always on?

Katie looks very Lady Foot Locker chic.

I think he has been asked, but I think his answers were sort of a no to non-committal. Not that it really means anything at this point since the EPs could change their mind, and they've already got a metahuman coming on in 3x19.

But they're meeting two episodes before the hypothetical pitting. Why on earth would Ra's go after Lance anyway? Why would Ra's care about Laurel at this point? Unless he goes after Lance because Lance is going after Arrow/Oliver, but then that would mean that Oliver turned him down, so why would Ra's do that? Too many questions, haha. I think Laurel's going to be the one who "dies" too. If it is her, I guess maybe she'll be getting her canary cry.

I think so? Who knows. But if the kidnapping arc were happening this offseason, there's no doubt in my mind that Laurel would be out there trying to get her along with Oliver and Roy. Or maybe they'd give her her own storyline? People don't read comics for courtroom drama, so it probably really is difficult for them to work her in. While I do enjoy the comics, I hate that they're doing well and being generally well-received. I don't like the message it sends that people are willing to pay to get the storylines they want to see outside of the show. I don't think it bodes well for the future of Arrow, but then again this season of Arrow doesn't bode well for the future of Arrow either.

I agree that the stories are great as-is and that Laurel isn't missed at all, but I think the reason they're having trouble incorporating her into the storylines is because they're all pretty action-packed and there's not much need for a district attorney in them. If she were BC during the summer, I think she'd be in them more.

I agree that if Laurel dies and does get LPed, he's trolling. If the LP comes into play, could be that it happens after whatever they're doing in the BTS shots? So everyone's fine but soon to be not fine? I don't know. Since we don't know where Ra's and Oliver stand yet it's difficult to suss out.

KC and SA are missing from some BTS shots, but they were in some that were taken in what looked like an airplane hangar. Well - SA was in those, but it seems like KC was there since she posted a pic of EBR from that set. Unless, I guess, that wasn't her pic that she posted. Seems like the BTS shots with WH in them were in some kind of outside setting, so maybe Oliver and Laurel separate from the group once they get wherever they're going (again, provided that KC was actually there at all in the first set of BTS pics). But yeah, I think we can rule out Team Arrow ever being Oliver, Diggle and Felicity again.

I think the panels are usually about that long individually, so if they're doing them one after the other then maybe?

I wonder if they intend to dedicate half of the panel to each show so it's not really a joint panel? Although that would kind of negate the point of selling it as a joint panel, haha.
