Nice swerve of Mia getting behind Oliver.

[scarynikki12]

The Arrows are on mission. Daddy Daughter time indeed. 

[statsgirl]

I really want Mia to tie her hair back. How is she able to see?

[Lantern7]

Warehouse . . . dead bodies . . . welcome to Arrow!

MSCGA. Booooooooooooooo.

Why must people always compliment Curtis? He was perfectly fine when people weren't doing that. Seriously, show, I used to like him. I really did. Remind me why? 

He was smart, he admired Felicity and Oliver, he tried to do the right thing even when he was scared, he and his ex-hubby helped Felicity walk again...

But they used to trust us to form our own opinions on him.

This is a good Laurel/Mia scene, ahhh

Mia getting advice from the person who once tried to murder her mother and calling her father a dick yeah no... 

[quarks]

I kinda like the callbacks to season 2 with all the water pipes. I'd like the callbacks even more if we hadn't so frequently visited that particular set.

[insomniadreams88]

Does Arrow only have enough in its budget this season for Laurel to use her meta-cry every other episode? 

[Primal Slayer]

Dinah! There is a window...throw the bomb out....

[Trisha]

I know it’s dumb for hoping but I really want a mention about how they called Felicity in these last 10 mins...

[quarks]

Welcome to fighting in the past, Mia and Connor! You'll note that it happens in VERY similar tunnels and warehouses, so you should feel right at home!

[statsgirl]

Callback to Oliver stopping someone else from killing

[insomniadreams88]

Shut up, Curtis. 

[Lantern7]

“Where did you learn to disarm bombs?” “From you, all right?!? I learned it from watching you!”

[scarynikki12]

Heh releasing the arrow gives Mia bouncy hair. 

[Lantern7]

Would Grant refer to Oliver as “Uncle”?

[calliope1975]

Whatever, DAD!

[statsgirl]

Too bad Grant can't get daddy's cell on Lian Yu.

[insomniadreams88]

Remember when it was so important to not tell the bad guys their names? I know it's not the same thing, but it almost feels like, "We didn't tell anyone about Mia to keep her safe. ... Hey, everyone! This is Mia!" 

[Lantern7]

“Well, he’s Batwoman’s problem now.”

[quarks]

Ok. Someone tell me why Gotham is still using Arkham for its prisoners but letting prisoners from other shows stay in more secure locations?

[statsgirl]

Father-child bonding time

[scarynikki12]

We got a Mia Smile!

Kate needs her Villains Of The Week to come from somewhere. 

[insomniadreams88]

"Hey, remember when Laurel killed Vince and Dinah went all crazy? Yeah, neither do we." 

[calliope1975]

Why am I getting all these awesome scenes in the last season??

[insomniadreams88]

To be fair, nothing Felicity knew about Robert was exactly "share with his grandddaughter" type stuff. 

[quarks]

Because we already have too many damn canaries on this show, Rene!

[Lantern7]

“Canary Network . . . sounds like an excellent backdoor pilot!”

[quarks]

And now, a nice nostalgic visit back to these graves!

[scarynikki12]

Aww baby girl! All Mia wants is to know her daddy. 

[Trisha]

Bleh, Black Siren is going to make a deal with him isn’t she?

[Lantern7]

“I’m Wild Dog. Did I mention I’m Wild Dog? I put on an old-timey hockey mask and shoot people!”

[quarks]

Is Rene actually giving this speech right in front of that favorite fence that we JUST SAW in the previous scene?

Yes. Yes. He is. 

[calliope1975]

That was a lackluster speech. I wouldn't have voted for him. 

[insomniadreams88]

Serious question: Does the show remember that it was E1 LL who did that whole milkshake thing? STOP PRETENDING DOPPELGANGERS NAMED LAUREL LANCE ARE ALL THE SAME.

[statsgirl]

And there launches the Dinah/Laurel slash fic

[insomniadreams88]

Aww, yes, callback to 603! Loved that Oliver/Felicity/William scene.

[scarynikki12]

Lame presser Rene. 
 

Helllloooooooo Diggle’s arms. 
 

Awww a return of the Oliver/Felicity post sex snack but without the subtext. 

[statsgirl]

Is that the Anti-Monitor?

[bettername2come]

That look on Oliver's face: "Of course it's Russia."

[Primal Slayer]

We already know that E1/2 doppelgangers share plenty of similarities. But maybe Dinah introduced her to it.

[Lantern7]

Damn, Monitor. You cold.

[quarks]

I refuse to believe that Black Siren is this stupid.

[statsgirl]

Let's go look for Anatoli next!

[calliope1975]

LL's like, OK, sign me up!

[Primal Slayer]

Lol "you must betray Oliver Queen" of course..

[scarynikki12]

Russia time!

Aww father daughter bonding over tennis. 

[Primal Slayer]

Aww father/daughter arrow time

[KenyaJ]

"That makes sense." Hee! 

[quarks]

POINTLESS TENNIS BALL SHOOTING IS BACK yay

(I know Oliver just tried to tell me that it isn't pointless, but I'm not buying it)
