Nice exit for Thea. Glad they did not kill her off.

Hate seeing Thea leave. True they had not used her very much. I am glad they did not kill her off. Good exit.

I liked this episode, despite a few things, it was very enjoyable and much closer to what Arrow was the first seasons. The best of the episode was Nyssa and Thea/Roy, as well.
Another argument/fight that is no sense, this shows the low quality and the lack of ideas from the writers room to write a suitable story for the season. They are postponing everything for the last episodes for sure, but I just hope they don't make it all rush. I guess it's too much to ask to have another season like season 5. But well, I don't really think the fight between Oliver and Diggle over being Green Arrow will have further consequences. I mean, Diggle should understand Oliver, he cannot complain about Oliver being reluctantly about leaving being the Green Arrow.
It was awesome to see Curtis will have a date with someone new, it was time for him to move on. And I liked his scenes with Dinah, it was good to see a quiet episode without more fights with the Arrow team. And also it is nice to see how they are taking care of Rene's daughter.
About Nyssa and Felicity, well, I will quote a comment from the promo of 6x17 in YT:
However, I really loved that Nyssa called her "sister wife". Sad to see she finished the marriage, because I would have enjoyed a lot to see her in future episodes calling Oliver husband and making fun of it. But well, she still can call him "ex"

About Thea leaving with Roy. Well, I must admit that I'm not surprised. I'm happy as long as Thea is. I liked the way she left, it doesn't mean she will never be back for a few episodes, but she will be having a great story and life by herself along with Roy and working with Nyssa, trying to right Malcolm's wrongs. It was kind of what Thea needed for her life. Loved seeing that red car at the end, a hint about Speedy and Arsenal!

I wasnt the biggest fan of this episode. I thought Thea had a decent send off and there were some nice moments... i also like that we didnt get much of Dinah and the others.... but, the episode felt very scattered to me like they were trying to throw a bunch of stuff in there. IDK, i found it a bit jarring. Personally I never was that attached to Thea so I am not that sad to see her leave, I think the show could be a bit more cohesive without her...

I miss Nyssa. Maybe now that Katrina has had her baby she might appear in a few episodes again. Tailia is still out there so we have hope.
