(EB tweet, page 1032 of Spoiler Discussion thread) -- DCTV All Access: "And after the crazy events of the past few weeks, Oliver Queen has decided he has to kill Damien Darhk," Navarro explains. "Meanwhile, John Diggle is on a mission to find his brother this week. Plus, Thea goes on vacation, but not everything is what it seems. So Ollie decides he needs to find a way to defeat Damien Darhk's magic. What does he do? He goes to a place called Hub City to possibly learn from an allie of Constantine's, maybe. And if you're a comic book fan, you know Hub City is the home of classic fan-favorite character The Question - who's awesome. And a little tidbit, The Question was the original inspiration and basis for the character Rorschach, from the all-time classic Watchmen comic book series." (DCTV All Acess video in ComicBook article, page 36 of Spoilers thread) -- Per JBam, 420 is "awesome." (JBam tweet, page 33 of Spoilers thread) -- On Mar. 7, Arrow was filming at Riverview's East Lawn building (pic posted). (WhatsFilmings tweet, page 33 of Spoilers thread) -- Fan tweet from HVFF-Chicago on Mar. 12: "David Ramsey is the sweetest!! He said that last night just filmed some great Andy SL stuff." (TriciaTesH tweet, page 340 of Social Media thread) -- DR: “Diggle takes this very personally. Clearly it was because of Andy’s betrayal, among other things... That was a huge piece of this catastrophic puzzle that led to Laurel’s death. ... It was his trust of Andy and his mistrust of Oliver’s judgment that led to this happening... He’s wounded deeply by this, and we’re going to see a Diggle who’s willing to do things that he’s never done before to avenge his friend, to right the wrong. ... This is all part and parcel to another side of Diggle we’re exploring this season, which is great... Every time you set a person on high like Diggle has been, it’s great to see the fall.... That the guy whose fall you can watch crumble like a trainwreck because he’s so high up. We have a lot of that story to tell.” (Zap2It article, page 35 of Spoilers thread) -- On what to expect when Diggle finally confronts Andy again, DR: "We can expect a man possessed. We can expect a man that's willing to do whatever it takes to bring him to justice, and more importantly, do whatever it takes to protect the people he loves. You are going to see a Diggle like a man possessed to bring Andy and Damien Darhk down, particularly to bring his brother to justice." (ComicBookResources article, page 36 of Spoilers thread) -- Taiana (ER) might be in 420 or 421. On Mar. 17, ER tweeted: "All the hidden layers under your costume while shooting on location in #yvr....who knows what I'm taking about? #stayingwarmoutthere." (ER tweet, page 961 of Spoiler Discussion thread) Unspecified Episode (420-423) -- In response to fan asking for two truths and a lie with regard to upcoming episodes, SA replied (on Mar. 22) that there's reference made to an ark, Alex is nowhere to be seen, and Oliver gets off the island. (SA facebook video, page 958 of Spoiler Discussion thread) -- Per WM, Damien Darhk will "come out swinging" in the wake of offing Laurel Lance and dealing Team Arrow that morale-crushing blow. As for his endgame, WM pointed fans to 409 as well as the Bible's Book of Genesis for "some pretty good clues" about what he's got cooking. Meanwhile, Diggle must deal with his guilt over Laurel's death while Thea must grapple with her destiny as Speedy (as well as faces off against an old foe). Amid all that drama, can Oliver & Co. possibly rebound from their loss and rise to stop Darhk? WM: "It becomes a question of: How does Oliver defeat his magic?... And that really won't be answered until the finale." (TVLine article, page 35 of Spoilers thread) -- On whether Olicity will reunite, WM: "We started off this season with Felicity really wanting to come back and do this because she herself enjoys this kind of vigilante lifestyle, but that is separate from Oliver. In [the Season 4 premiere], he didn’t want to; it was more about her making herself happy than anything else. So she’ll be grappling in some ways with that ." Per WM, the coming episodes “will echo [the premiere] in terms of where a lot of the characters end up ... specifically Oliver and Felicity." MG: "People will have to see if things change or not change” as Season 4 winds to a close. (TVLine article, page35 of Spoilers thread) -- The romantic situation between Oliver & Felicity will not be resolved right away. WM: "Felicity does come to see her own role in the breakup and that she can't put it all on Oliver... We felt compelled not to wrap that story up with a bow." (TV Guide's Finale Preview article, page 35 of Spoilers thread) -- During the Axis Facebook Q&A with Aisha Tyler (on Apr. 10), in response to fan asking her to describe the rest of S4 in three words, EBR replied: "Absolute destructive devastation." (Video in Velocity23 post, page 362 of Social Media thread)

To clarify what I meant when I said that Taiana's last name could return next season... In a past episode, we saw Taiana ask Oliver to go to Russia and find her family if something happens to her. So assuming something does indeed happen to her, Oliver would likely go to Russia in the flashbacks next season and would be looking for a family with that same last name (or I guess, some derivation of that last name).

Even though this is the AoS spoilers thread, this episode description also includes a spoiler for Captain America: Civil War, so I've put that specific spoiler in spoiler tags...

Maybe they gave her a last name because that name will return next season.

No spoilers - but we find out Taiana's last name...

There's a poll at the end of that article. Current results:

Like Kymmi, now I really want to see an Earth-2 Felicity next season.

When the EPs said last fall that they didn't know who was in the grave yet, maybe they were deciding, not between Quentin and Laurel, but between Thea and Laurel (esp. considering WM's recent comments specifically explaining why they didn't kill Thea) So if they had gone with killing off Thea, then the 422 storyline could've been about rescuing Laurel instead. So maybe the intent of that storyline is not about who is being rescued, but about Oliver's actions in response. The rescuee just happens to be Thea by process of elimination. Since this show is mainly about Oliver's growth, maybe we'll see him react differently this season to Thea being in danger than he did last season.

Possible Laurel head canon... . Until then, she didn't know that Oliver still had that photo. He could've easily lost it or thrown it out during the 5 years he was away (or after he returned to Starling City in 2012). So the fact that he still had it told her that he treasured it and her. Giving the photo to her was a message that he had held onto her pic while he was lost and away. (Now that he was back, or at least a simple plane ride away, he didn't need it anymore.) That's why she held onto it and treasured it. It was a reminder of his love for her.
