It's tough being a vigilante when all he needs is some socks.  

[janeta]

See? They shoulda just shot him !

[BkWurm1]

I like Curtis's apartment.  

[calliope1975]

Yay! It's open. The whole surprise party was adorable. 

I like Chase and I'm also over him.

It's so random I have to think that it's based on something, but probably nothing to do with Oliver and the show.  

Kovar and his sensory flashbacks are interesting.  

[catrox14]

I really like Oliver's island hair this season TBH

[Lady Calypso]

The pure panic when Oliver thought Felicity was taken was awesome.

I was, but way too short. And the Lord Mesa Bakery was cute, but probably would have had more impact if MG hadn't gone on and on about the cake.

[statsgirl]

Yes, show, I get the Kovar/Chase "wake up" torture parallels. Can we move on now please?

[BkWurm1]

Ha!  She did recognize Oliver's butt.  

[statsgirl]

Oliver, now is not the time to get romantic. Get Felicity safe first.

[BkWurm1]

Another heart to heart between Oliver and Felicity.  Only for William to be brought up.  

[statsgirl]

William spoils everything

[calliope1975]

William is the dumbest part of Oliver. And here comes what I'm sure will be a riveting performance.

[janeta]

Argh.  She just won't die, will she?

[Lady Calypso]

Poor Quentin. I am surprised he hasn't had another heart attack.

[catrox14]

get Thea a bow and arrow please

[BkWurm1]

Thea should be able to fill in Quentin.

Oh dear is it very bad?

[catrox14]

Just shoot her, Thea!!

It was quick

[insomniadreams88]

BS just said "daddy" enough times in what, less than a minute?, to last for the rest of the show. 

[BkWurm1]

"I'm so sorry Daddy."  

Yeah, Black Siren is totally not evil.  Sure. right.  Insert eye roll.  

[statsgirl]

Nice reveals of BS and Evelyn,

Why doesn't Quentin just file a missing persons report on Rene?  No big problem.

[catrox14]

StupidEvelyn. StupidBlack Siren. URRGGHHH

Stop calling him "daddy", you creep

[Mrs. de Winter]

I am not sure I can accept William as the purest part of Oliver.  Dumbest part, least needed part, sure.

I second that emotion.

Not bad so much as totally derailed what was looking like a really good scene in the making.

I'm pretty sure they forgot about his heart problems. 

[mtlchick]

So this is how they reintroduce Katie Cassidy into Arrow?  I have nothing against her, but it's how I'm feeling about American Idol coming back: "So SOON?!  Was anyone really asking for that?" 

[apinknightmare]

Sure, Oliver. William is the purest part of you, but also the stupidest part of you. Which is saying a lot.

[BkWurm1]

I thought he WAS having a heart attack for a second there.  

[insomniadreams88]

You know what I wonder? Did Evelyn break BS out of ARGUS on her own? If so, how? No, really, how? 

[unlfan03]

stupid EAS messages totally interrupts the flow of the show, I'm going to have to re-watch on line if it goes off again during the last 10 min of the episode.

There was a LOT of plot involved.

An assist from Malcolm or Talia?

[statsgirl]

Chase's "lady friends"  Hee.

Oliver Nooooo, don't make them leave.  That's what Chase wants.

[janeta]

Just go shoot Chase.

[Lady Calypso]

Well, obviously Chase will get Felicity/Diggle captured the moment they're out of Oliver's sight.

[catrox14]

Oliver, no, Chase is going to expect you to split up. Don't do it.

[statsgirl]

I don't understand why these villains want to make Oliver see what a terrible person he is.  Who cares? 

[catrox14]

Maybe they want him to become their leader?

[insomniadreams88]

I feel like Chase is just checking things off his list right now.

Oliver sends Felicity and Diggle away. Check! 

[Lady Calypso]

Yeah, why would Oliver think that Chase would assume that he'd keep them close? This is Oliver we're talking about! Master of Pushing People Away to Protect Them.

[BkWurm1]

So all these island flashbacks, within a flashback.  At least we understand why Oliver was so raw when he got back to Starling.  

[statsgirl]

I love the blood on the see through wall as Oliver hits Chase.

Edited May 18, 2017 by statsgirl

[janeta]

Nope.  Shoot him.

[catrox14]

Someone is probably taking video of Oliver threatening Chase

[BkWurm1]

It's funny that Oliver claimed that Chase would know his first instinct would be to hold them close, but since when?  Pushing them away is always his go to move.
