Oliver just looks done. He's been through this song and dance so many times that an arrow through his shoulder is just a minor flesh wound. 

Oh...Chase, no. You brought up The Boy Who Is Still In This Timeline. Damnit.

[BkWurm1]

Dolf looks like he's having fun.  

[statsgirl]

Look, Oliver has firework arrows already!

[kismet]

Can we please have OQ yelling Adrian outside of a window before the episode is over in Streetcar Style.

Also, why is OQ stupid enough to think that if he won't look for his son, his enemies won't. They don't need to torture you for it OQ, there is this thing called the internet you can find just about anybody.

I get the writers need leverage but it's getting old how stupid they make him because of their inability & stupidity.

[janeta]

Seriously snowing out there

[ladylaw99]

I miss that old arrow suit

[BkWurm1]

I'm interested in this episode but already REALLY missing Felicity and Diggle.  

[catrox14]

For a mostly flashback episode this works thus far. Not as good as the Odyssey but pretty good

[statsgirl]

Now I'm wondering what Diggle and Felicity are doing now.  I guess it was a light episode for DR and EBR.

I say this as someone who doesn't mind the idea of a minimally recurring child for OQ offscreen, but can LoT or BA get on top of that timeline issue. We can erase a lot of bullshit, can we please erase the disaster of writing & concept that was BMD.

[BkWurm1]

Really hate the Dr Pepper commercial with random dude on a jet ski.  

[insomniadreams88]

I want to know what Chase is up to when he's not with Oliver. Is he going around Star City and asking, "Hey, anyone see the mayor?" or anything like that? 

[LadyChaos]

flashbacks are underwhelming tonight....I want more present day stuff.

[BkWurm1]

Also, I do not like fish sandwiches.  

[kismet]

So far this episode is holding up for me. It is not as good as Odyssey. But I find myself interested and invested.

[Lady Calypso]

HAHAHAHAHA! Overwatch!

Since I'm spoiled for the episode and the secret, I'm finding the flashbacks more interesting since they are building to it I assume.  

[ladylaw99]

Holy crap Oliver that's harsh

[BkWurm1]

Nice butt shot.  

[apinknightmare]

I need a gif of Oliver tapping his head like that. It would be so useful.

[statsgirl]

Nice parallel torture set-up.  Now I don't feel so bad for present day Oliver

[BunsenBurner]

I hate to say it but I'm bored. I was expecting something better than this.The flashbacks are awful and I can't wait until they are over forever.

Nor do I.... I don't mind tuna sandwiches in a punch. But why put breaded fish on a bun. Yet, I'm ok with breaded chicken on a bun. I do make exceptions for fish tacos, those I don't consider sandwiches

[BkWurm1]

Huh, my fillet of fish comment had a tie in to the show.  

[JJ928]

Yeah, I guess that's kinda Dark, Oliver.

[statsgirl]

Oooh Anatoly just said Oliver is like Slade.  Nice burn.

[kismet]

I love Anatoly, can we bring him into the present day please???? Also, good thing OQ got a mask, otherwise it would be to easy to identify him.

[calliope1975]

Okay, sure S1 Oliver was a PTSD killing machine, but he's not that guy anymore. I'm going to need more than this, Show. 

[Lady Calypso]

Damn. Now I get why Anatoly punched Oliver in the present day timeline. 

[thegirlsleuth]

Anatoly's speech is a little on the nose.

[calliope1975]

Oh come on. Nope, I'm not quite buying this. 

[JJ928]

Lord, fb Oliver is a psycho lol.

[Nostariel]

"The rest was me practicing." JESUS CHRIST, OLIVER.

[kismet]

I'm liking Dark OQ, I want more.

[BkWurm1]

Now the hood no longer has quite the nostalgia factor it used to now that putting it on let him let the monster out.  

[unlfan03]

How dark is Oliver going to get? I'm going to have to rewatch season 1 because i don't think he was this dark even in season 1. I can see why he likes Anatoly though, he must bring him back to sanity.

[kismet]

I killed one of them and led the other one to her death.

[JJ928]

please put this hair up or something. This wig triggers me.

[BkWurm1]

Wow, I swear his hair is now even longer in the back.  

[statsgirl]

I think Oliver got lighter in s1 as soon as Diggle and then Felicity started influencing him.

[kismet]

But seriously trust me lady, I'm a good guy

[ladylaw99]

That wig really is bad

[janeta]

Uh oh...

[insomniadreams88]

Is it just me or have they said Taiana's name more times so far this episode than all of S4? 

[Lady Calypso]

Well, Poppy's mom is so dead.

[kismet]

hey look she's back.

[Nostariel]

I feel like I shouldn't be laughing here, but that wig is killing me and I can't help it.

[calliope1975]

I'd say Poppy did NOT help Oliver to grow strong, but when I think of S4 flashbacks, I zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Jeez at all this "monster" stuff. Subtlety is not this show's forte. 

[BkWurm1]

I don't think Evelyn is going to make it out of this any better than his wife did.  

[thegirlsleuth]

If I were Taiana's mom, I would have never gone back to the market after the first encounter.
