Lady Calypso November 5, 2018 Share November 5, 2018 Quote RULES ARE MADE TO BE BROKEN — Oliver (Stephen Amell) makes a drastic move in his quest to find Diaz (Kirk Acevedo). Like her husband, Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) pulls out all the stops to get to Diaz. Meanwhile, when arsonists target Rene’s (Rick Gonzalez) community center, injuring Zoe (guest star Eliza Faria) in the process, the mysterious new Green Arrow swoops in to help save the day. Faced with pressure from the mayor to capture the vigilante, Dinah (Juliana Harkavy) must decide if following the rules at all costs is the best plan to keep the city safe. Ben Bray directed the episode written by Emilio Ortega Aldrich & Tonya Kong (#704). Original airdate 11/5/2018. Link to comment
BkWurm1 November 6, 2018 Share November 6, 2018 I know that it's only episode 4 of the season, but DAMN, they are really doubling down on trying to present the most depressing future possible. Makes it really hard to give a damn about the present. 18 Link to comment

insomniadreams88 November 6, 2018 Share November 6, 2018 First of all, nope, don't believe Felicity's dead in the future. It's going to turn out that she's leading William to find her (and knew Roy was needed for an unnecessary flip along the way), and they're going to run into Oliver doing the same thing. (And if she's dead, I'm sorry, but Oliver has to be dead, too. Sorry, but I just refuse to accept anything other than both alive or both dead.) In theory, I don't mind Zoe being the future BC but seriously, no more BCs. Too much Dinah in this episode. I get they're setting up the new GA and right now, that's connected to Rene and Dinah, but that entire story was boring. Cannot wait for Oliver to take down the psychiatrist. SA did an amazing job in those scenes, but I'm sick and tired of seeing Oliver be beaten down (physically, emotionally, etc.). Didn't hate the Felicity/BS scenes, but I find it so sad that Felicity had to turn to BS and no one else is questioning what Felicity's up to. Really want to see E2 Felicity. Damn right she runs an empire! But hey, Beebo! 12 Link to comment

Primal Slayer November 6, 2018 Share November 6, 2018 It was another ok episode but it had SO MUCH GOING ON!!!!! Like jeez! They couldn't decide what to do so they had to throw 4 storylines at us? Dinah/Rene dominating the episode didnt do much for me, they've had plenty to do since the premiere and I am ready for others to shine (namely my girl Siren and her teaming up with Felicity more). I feel like their arc that they've had since the premiere should be done now. The new Green Arrow is totally a female. It gotta be. They drove home the whole "him, he, his" and that voice was way over done for it to be a guy. Felicity coming to Laurel for help was great, they make a fun dynamic duo. Laurels story about E2 Oliver holds up so yay though I never thought that was a lie. E2 Felicity is ruthless, when can we go back to E2? I just needed more of those two together in this episode and they were fairly robbed. Olivers whole psychological thing was ok though it will be useless if nothing comes of all of this. So Star City is trashed in the future #shocked #not really. Dinah is there and will probably be a big character in the future from now on #shocked #not really. Zoe is Canary Jr. just as soon as we see Dinah give her the iconic BC/BoP logo #ughhhhh Really at this point they might as well just give the future peeps a spin off or at least a web series. This whole "Felicity Smoak is dead" yeah f'ing right. You dont got the balls Arrow! You.Do.Not! 5 Link to comment
BunsenBurner November 6, 2018 Share November 6, 2018 I really don’t think I can keep watching this show. I don’t mind a little dark but this has been 4 shows of dark. I’m just not enjoying the hopelessness that they are showing. Why keep watching something so depressing. Oh well I’m going to wait a couple of shows and see how you all see it.

JamieLynn832002 November 6, 2018 Share November 6, 2018 I refuse to believe Felicity is dead in the future but why did Dinah say "Felicity Smoak is dead?" They were talking about Felicity so it's not like William and Roy were going to be confused and think she meant a different Felicity. I'm going to need the future to get a lot less dark soon. Why should I invest in these people if I know they're all going to be miserable or dead with their city fallen in 20 years? I was somewhat open-minded about the flashforward but this "nothing matters because it all goes to shit anyway" thing doesn't work for me. 12 Link to comment

I love Oliver and Felicity and Diggle full stop. But I'm beyond Oliver being broken down mentally and spiritually. Been there, done that, got Amell's charity t-shirt to prove it. Felicity is boss, but even her sadness is wearing. Poor Digg's become barely an entity who asks how high when ARGUS says jump. I know we're only 4 eps in, but we are 4 eps in. I'm going to need an epic OTA reunion. This ep had way, way too much Dinah, and I admit, this is the first time I noticed how awful an actor she is. I typically zone out when she's on screen. I'm all for the new future team, but what the hell, Star City? At this point, you don't deserve any vigilantes. The city loves them; the city hates them. A third rate sad little man easily took over the city. Clearly the federal government doesn't care. Just raze that city to the ground. 16 Link to comment

I'm also curious about what happened with William - where the hell has he been living that he didn't know Star City went to shit, or that his stepmother's apparently large tech company went to shit and she died? Even if you're estranged, surely you'd know those things? Unless that's just an abandoned office of Smoak Tech and it's still existing somewhere. Still, you think Felicity dying would've been news or something. This is dumb. 23 Link to comment

BkWurm1 November 6, 2018 Share November 6, 2018 (edited) I'm not a fan of how this future storyline is robbing the show of hope. Without the flashforwards, at least no matter what happened on the show, we knew it could get better. Now they are saying that the good stuff is only going to fall apart but hey, right now why don't you keep wallowing in all the bad stuff of the present and the future? This is why keeping Olicity apart is a very bad idea. Where is the light at the end of the tunnel? Four episodes in and while I've watched enough tv to know FutureFelicity isn't going to stay dead, the idea of it and a ruined Star City and an abandoned William is still the most depressing thing ever. Oliver will, I'm sure, get free before the crossover but then we'll have another 12 episodes of them beating us down with defeats since of course Arrow can't have wins til the very end of the season. Ugh. I feel so tired already. Edited November 6, 2018 by BkWurm1 I don't know what's up with the formatting. It won't let me fix it 9 Link to comment
Guest November 6, 2018 Share November 6, 2018 (edited) This episode was just disappointing and depressing. I feel weirdly flat now. Oliver's scenes were good but so depressing. I don't want to keep seeing Oliver tortured. Stop it. It's been 7 seasons! The scene with him and William was well done though and made me sad. Felicity/Laurel scenes were good but I found it very strange how BS was acting like she truly knew Felicity. That was a bit of a stretch for me. Dinah is THE WORST and I seriously just want her dead. Way too much focus on her and JH can't act at all. She either grits her teeth or acts flirty. I just don't get it. And the fact that she's in the flashforwards now? Awful. As for the flashforwards, they've ruined it for me. This future is just way too bleak and depressing. What's the point of everything they do now if this is how things end up? I was always concerned they might do something like this but seeing it just put me off the season. It really has. It's not that I even believe Felicity is dead either, though that was an asshole troll move by Beth there. It's just...what is there to look forward to?

I didn't necessarily think the flashforwards were going to be all happy and think Beth and them just want to set up immediate mystery. Like, this episode alone already countered the idea that 701 was the last time he saw Felicity (and presumably Oliver), I'm guessing future things will reveal other stuff too. 5 Link to comment

I mean, even if he winds up piercing Diaz's stupid, stupid neck several times to prevent his (hot) stepmother from killing, it's just . . . huh??? Of course Zoe is a vigilante/freedom fighter in the future. Maybe her power is shooting guns without needing a hockey mask. Yeah, Rene's gotten more tolerable, but he's still a butthead. And I'm thinking that when Oliver has the inevitable reunion with the team, Rene will let out a very prolonged "HOSS!!!!" It's building up within him, I know it. Curtis: "I know I'm in the top three of characters that viewers want dead,so I'm going to be scarce. But hey, I brought Zoe a Beebo! And doesn't Beebo make everything better?" Intense stuff with Ollie. Anybody else think the doctor is on Diaz's payroll? Slabside is a big den of corruption anyway, so why not? Hey, at least the guy didn't break out Rorscach tests.

This season has definitely been dark and it's weird how each episode it feels like a lot has happened but there's no progression made whatsoever overall. The big problem with Arrow is how repetitive it is. How is this any different than when Chase tortured Oliver? Or Malcolm? Or henchman #904? Why do we have to watch over and over again the fear of Oliver losing who he "really" is and Felicity getting upset about it? Find new story lines, please. There's so much you can do about these characters that we haven't seen before, it's crazy how they retread the same beats over and over. I think Arrow needs to move away from the vigilante stuff (or at least go back to bad dude of the week). I would seriously watch a show where Digg is trying to figure out his role at Argus and balance it with his marriage with his boss (you know a lot of the Argus people were like "sure we know why you've suddenly been promoted"), while Oliver and Felicity figure out what's next now that he's no longer Mayor, and all three of them get together to have a nice meal and complain about how complicated double lives are and figuring out your future is. Just show me the characters doing something new, please! (Also, why the hell would the Glades be able to wall itself off? WHY DOES ARROW PRETEND THERE'S NO FEDERAL GOVERNMENT??? ARGUS DOESN'T COUNT.)

In the future flash forward in 701, William said he didn't know how to fire a bow. So he would have to learn how to shoot like that and then be transported to the past. I think it's too complicated, especially since Beth said that Arrow was going to be grounded in reality. (yeah, right) To me, the person who is the new Green Arrow looks too slight to be William. The psychiatrist is either on Diaz' payroll or has his own issues with Oliver, speculating Spoiler that he is the son of the Queen's Gambit captain, although how did he learn all that about Robert's actions But whoever he is, the light and sound torture and the drugging and whatever he was doing with the hallucinations are shockingly unethical. The American Psychological Association voted to never take part in the "interrogations" at Guantanamo; seeing this on TV really bothers me. 4 Link to comment

It's not news, just no one cares anymore? William HAS to be in on whatever con Felicity and Oliver are running. Please, showrunner Jesus, don't let this all be so stupid.

The American Psychological Association voted to never take part in the "interrogations" at Guantanamo; seeing this on TV really bothers me. This is Arrow. I think he subscribes to the Star City code of conduct, whatever that may be (probably make it up as you go along). On another note, NGA is very flamboyant! Makes me giggle!
