benteen November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 (edited) I LOL’d when Thea mistook Chappaquiddick for Quidditch. Given her age, it’s completely understandable how she didn’t get that reference. I never realized how Oliver’s own situation with Sara bore a certain resemblance for Ted Kennedy’s own scandal. Very good episode. Definitely enjoyed the crossover with Constantine, who was a fun addition to this episode. His interaction with Oliver was good. I would have loved to have seen more of the character in the present time though. Laurel, you’re still a complete idiot. Laure’s beatdown of Thea was a pretty awesome sequence. Lance and Diggle was a fun team-up, one we haven’t seen all that much on the show. I like that Lance told him the truth Andrew…he’s not like his daughter. Another great line was him telling Oliver that “At least (Laurel) is consistent. She lied to me about her death, she lied to you about her resurrection. Yet another funny line was Dhark asking Lance “What, you want a cupcake?” NM was really funny tonight and I enjoyed Dhark’s scenes with Lance. Edited November 5, 2015 by benteen 2 Link to comment

Lantern7 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 Anybody else underwhelmed by John Constantine? I can see how his series didn't last so long. I might be fatigued on Hunter from Agents of SHIELD and not know it, but I don't think this universe needs a magician who's nowhere near as cool as his comic canon counterpart. Shut up, Laurel. Couldn't she be the one to shuffle to Legends of Tomorrow? Can't wait for Sara to ask for the jacket back. What . . . a fan can dream, right? I thought it was super obvious that both of Sara's "targets" vaguely resembled Thea. 1 Link to comment

Sakura12 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I also assumed some significant time passed between the soul restoration and the final scenes but I would have liked to see them taking turns by her bedside. I'm just going to assume she needs a whole LOT of sleep for now. She slept for an entire year. I would think she'd need to catch up on being awake. I wouldn't want Sara lying on bed. She's a BAMF, she should be on her feet wondering why she's alive and what she missed and trying to fight the urge to kill Thea. 1 Link to comment
BunsenBurner November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I actually liked this episode, of course Constantine played a huge part in it. My brother never reads spoilers loved the show except for Laurel. He has liked her from the beginning but after what she did to Sara he said he was done with her. Said that if this was supposed to be her redemption the writers failed spectacularly. He actually yelled at the screen and kept saying Laurel was an idiot. He also said she should be the one in the grave. It was always me, me, me and had no compassion for Sara whatsoever. Also thought it was funny that Sara was doing all her on stunts but Laurel wasn't doing anything except for face shots. It really was way to obvious. 12 Link to comment

bmoore4026 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 John Constantine was very enjoyable! Too bad I didn't watch his show. I do hope he comes back more often. I'm surprised Daddy Lance told Diggle that he's involved with HIVE so soon. I was sure they'd draw it out for several more episodes. Oliver's campaign manager looked familiar? Could someone fill me in? Was he on Mad Men? So, now that Sara's back, does this mean there will be two Black Canaries? Will there be a "Black Canary-off"? And Obstacle, I mean Ray is still alive. We all knew he would be, but I'm pretty sure Felicity would love to punch him right now when a lot of things have been going right for her. Link to comment
AyChihuahua November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 The clones or drones or whatever have a surprising amount of personality. (1) hot guy tried to talk DD out of magicking him; (2) less-hot guy tried to get out of being magicked with [totally valid] excuses; and (3) possible Andy Diggle guy didn't kill Digg (how'd Andy recognize Digg with Digg's helmet of identity concealment?). 2 Link to comment

Lady Calypso November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 Oliver's campaign manager looked familiar? Could someone fill me in? Was he on Mad Men? Oliver's campaign manager is played by Parker Young. He did have a one episode role in Mad Men, but he's most known for his roles on Suburgatory, Enlisted (still RIP) and apparently, he was on an episode of Fresh Off The Boat. You know what's funny? Oliver actually ended up saving the day this time. If it wasn't for him, Sara would still be feral and trying to kill Thea, which means either Sara would have to be killed, or Thea would be killed. Either way, it was Oliver who saved everyone and he doesn't even get much of a thank you. I hope we get an Oliver/Sara scene soon. 18 Link to comment
BkWurm1 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 Oliver's campaign manager looked familiar? Could someone fill me in? He was cute but dumb boy across the street in Suberbia.

I get that Thea might not get the reference, but for me it was just cheap writing at the expense of real life tragedy. There was another way to address OQ's Lance sex history drama. Beyond the tragic drowning, there is not many other similarities between the Gambit & Chappaquiddick. But like I said, I'm more sensitive having grown up in Kennedy Country. It was not as bad as I thought it would be, but I still was disappointed with the writer's choice to incorporate it at all. But i agree with rest of your post. :) Link to comment

Popular Post statsgirl November 5, 2015 Popular Post Share November 5, 2015 (edited) I think what MG meant by this corridor scene being the reverse of the one in Time of Death was that in the old scene Oliver gave up on Laurel and their relationship and here Laurel gives up on Oliver. The good: Getting Constantine on the show. Diggle's story heats up and he gets scenes with Lance Oliver & Felicity on the couch talking like adults. The bad: Everything else. The Horrible: The fan pandering as Oliver and Laurel go on the vision quest but as Green Arrow and Black Canary. It would have made more sense for them to be Oliver and Laurel since that's how Sara was connected to them. While I liked the idea of having Constantine on, I thought the flashback story was thinner than my grandmother's phyllo dough. And I can't get over how awful Laurel behaved here. Please let this be the end of the Laurel episodes. Sadly, I doubt it though. Was this episode supposed to redeem Laurel? Because while I understand her wanting Sara back, and maybe even doing it in spite of what everyone told her, her actions here in not telling Oliver because he would be angry at her and instead letting Sara go on a killing spree, and then being all Me! Me! Me! in the hospital and never once asking what price Oliver had paid for permission to put Thea in the Pit just makes her the absolute worst. Yes Laurel he doesn't see you as an equal. Because you're not! I know who I want in that grave. Edited November 5, 2015 by statsgirl 27 Link to comment

JenMD November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 Meanwhile, everything about Laurel's decision making skills or lack thereof has and will be said. What annoys me is Thea's insistence on how close the Queens and Lances are. Other than Oliver's dalliances with both daughters, I never got the impression that the families were close. It would've been better to show that back in Season 1 (and made Laurel more sympathetic). And this idea that Oliver needs to consider Laurel more makes me laugh, since this was the fight that Digg and Oliver had all the time (and why is Digg in charge of the team? I thought they were all making decisions together), with Digg insisting that Oliver needed to stop obsessing over LL. Yeah, this mythical friendship that they're pushing between Oliver and Laurel just makes me roll my eyes. Talk about telling not showing. They barely seem to like each other most of the time. I knew as soon as Alex (that right, right?) brought up Oliver distancing himself from Laurel that the opposite would happen by episode's end. But really, Laurel is, as far as we know, still an ADA (although, she's never actually at work) and Oliver's running for mayor - they'll probably have to work together occasionally should he get elected, so Alex needed to address that head on instead of trying to distance them. Laurel was so much worse than I expected. Thea too. I was disappointed that she wouldn't take Oliver's call because she wasn't going to take the judgment. Clearly someone is a bad influence. Laurel's ME ME ME in the hallways was just mind boggling bad. You want me to feel sorry for you for what YOU DID???? After Nyssa warned you? After you for a WEEK hid that Sara was out their KILLING people? Oh, but it's time that Oliver start thinking about her? Oliver has spent WAY too much time over the course of the show thinking about Laurel. She's never going to get it, will she? Yeah, I went into this mostly unspoiled (I didn't read about or watch the leaked ep, but got a little spoiled by accident) and about halfway through I was thinking that I might need to look into blood pressure medication. She was just beyond awful. At first I thought it was the same night continuing from last week's ep and surely I misheard and Sara couldn't have been out killing for a week without Laurel going to anyone for help because there aren't words for how terrible that makes her. And that she didn't want Oliver's help because he'd judge her choices? Really? I just can't. And her apology after the fact to Thea and Oliver was way too little too late for me. And yes, the lack of Sara's POV after her resurrection was just typical of these writers who don't think past, "that's done, what's next?". I didn't make it past the first episode of "Constantine", so I didn't have any feelings either way about him coming on. He was fine, wouldn't want him around all the time, but I'd be fine with him popping up again. The flashback was made of silliness, though and the restoration was also underwhelming. In fact, I thought the reaction to Sara being back lacked a sense of urgency and OMG reactions, it was just weird pacing. Loved the little Olicity bits, the writers continue to do right by them. I suppose maybe they can only do a certain number of things right at a time... 19 Link to comment
dtissagirl November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 The episode was obviously designed to rehabiliate Laurel as a character -- she hasn't belonged to Oliver's narrative pretty much since 201, and now he's decided that he's gonna make an effort to remember she exists. But it still doesn't give Laurel a storyline of her own. Once Sara's off to greener pastures, what's Laurel's narrative role? I still have no idea. 12 Link to comment

Actionmage November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 Okay, HOW did Sara get into Thea's room? Thank you! It doesn't reflect well on Laurel who is supposed to be watching out for Thea and trying to be a safety buffer/line of defense against Sara, aka keeping Sara from killing Thea. Laurel did so good on that. She wasn't even right by the actual door of the room, but a room or so away. I'll let quarks enumerate more concisely what others have noted on ADA Lance, but yeah, Oliver never considered you an equal simply because you aren't, Laurel. Not a knock, just truth. I did not realize how much I missed John Constantine/Matt Ryan until I heard that dabbler of the dark arts ask for a cig! Welcome back and please, visit as much as you want! I guess I was wanting Thea to be a bit angrier at Laurel. She's a Queen, so self-recriminations and doubting your right to happiness seems to be genetic in Moira's kids, but? Thea heard all the other folks who actually know anything about anything mystical/Lazarus Pit-wise say it was a no good, very bad idea. So bad that Nyssa made sure no one could use it ever. ( That her timing dovetails with her intention of killing Malcom, is no big to me, but then I am not a LoA assassin or a Ra's. Nyssa isn't wrong though.) The reason she deliberately chose to leave with Malcolm was so she wouldn't be weak or anyone else's pawn. Guess who is still being a pawn? I would expect her fighting back her anger to come out with unexpected truth bombs and little patience for others' bs, Laurel most of all. Thea isn't dumb; with whatever time has elapsed from The Spa Weekend From Hell, she has to realize that Laurel played on her guilt and uncertainty. That should make the Thea Queen I've come to care about madder than a wet hen, or LoA assassin. Disappointed in not using that in this episode. Echo Kellum is a delight and Curtis really needs energy drink supervision! Can we get him into some gym clothes more often? *g* I loved Digg and Quentin going on their job. I just hope that this is actual trust building between John and Quentin. They are closer in career backgrounds than John and Ollie, but John and Oliver are a tighter bond, imo. Maybe John can figure out what TA can do to work with Quentin again. Oh, thank you Soulfire, for the lovely gifs! I really liked the one with Felicity watching Constantine scratch his back. 7 Link to comment

Didn't see much of her improved friendship with OQ, I just saw OQ finally giving in to her constant presence. Sometimes its easier to just not fight the crazy. Yeah, it was Oliver accepting that she'd been in his life a long time and was not going anywhere. I was wondering how the "warmth" between them would play out and honestly, the happy emotion and good feelings coming from Laurel was IMO 100% just residual, "Yippee! My Zombie sister problem is all fixed! I'm wonderful!" Laurel was just happy. Oliver was the next person that showed up in her life. I felt NOTHING personal even in her gratitude. It was the kind of emotion you'd have with who ever saved your sister. It was genuine, but not focused on Oliver, if that makes sense? 6 Link to comment

Did Sara hitch a ride on the meal cart or something? I don't understand. If she's not jumping through a window, I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS SARA TRAVELS. I was thinking that as well. And how did Sara even survive that jump out of the window without any noticeable bruises or anything? Was Thea on like the 2nd floor? Did she sneak in through the window and close it only to jump through it closed for some reason? Was she hiding in the bathroom the entire time? 2 Link to comment
BkWurm1 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 Saw something on Twitter that the peacock feather was subtle shade to NBC for cancelling Constantine. Ha! And Felicity called it a DEAD Peacock feather. Most of the time Peacock feathers are collected from the live birds when they naturally shed them (yes, I may have done some research after seeing the trailer last week) 8 Link to comment
