Can't wait! I've only watched like 4 episodes this season and I havent felt like I really missed anything lol. I don't think she'll have a huge role in this episode but cant wait regardless.

Overall a very enjoyable episode of Arrow. I've watched like a total of 5 or 6 episodes this season and I came back at the right time.

It was great and really cool of them to give a shout out to Lord Messa and use his art on the cake.

So the neck device ended up being Black Sirens but a collar for DD...they finally get a girl who has a Canary Cry and all of sudden she needs help focusing it....I think it will be what helps her get the upper hand with Black Siren. I for sure thought that they'd have Siren take it and that be the reason why she gains an upperhand in a battle but guess not.

This show needed more casual moments and we got just that with Olivers birthday party. It was really refreshing but lawd....The Curtis/Felicity convo afterwards.

Turning Curtis into a glorified shipper and seemingly nothing else.....no me gusta. Shouldn't they be having him focus on his relationship with his husband?

Why wouldn't Oliver want his sister with him? At least he doesnt have to worry about her as much as he would Felicity (but I know...he loves her, etc...gotta get that OTA in) Though I guess it could also do with Felicity not being able to defend herself in a fight as well as Thea could.


Siren in da house!!!! Play with them emotions girl! I was hoping we'd see her break out of Argus instead of taking the lazy route "oh she just happened to get out of a high security jail cell" Poor Quentin. He always gets put through the ringer. The Thea/Quentin scene was great. The Siren/Quentin scene later on was great. Katie/Paul always deliver the best. In fact the entire Lance family deliver the best scenes together. Black Siren isn't just a one note villain (srry!), she has feelings and I'm glad that they chose to show it with him.

Diggle looked like he was going 10mph trying to hit that woman lol. Like dude...you should've known how this would work and turned the hell around and gone like at least 45mph.

I'm surprised that Malcolm doesnt have any connections but I am here for him ripping into Oliver. It was very enjoyable. I loved how he told Oliver that he got his back just so he could get some kills in lol. I laughed at how it's pouring down rain but Oliver gets like 1 drop on him. Chase gets all wet in a matter of 2 seconds but Oliver is perfectly dry.



Nyssa is back! YASSS! It's great seeing her. Why don't they just sign Katrina full time? Just go through with it already. I enjoyed Malcolm not wanting to work with her.


Laurel!!!!!!!! Imaginary Laurel but still!!! Laurel!! I like KC as a blonde but there are no lies that she looks drop dead gorgeous as a brunette. Great scene with her and Oliver.

And in true Arrow fashion, it takes all of an hour to get halfway across the world.

The guy they got to play Slade looks A LOT like Manu. That's some good recasting. Props to them for pulling it off so seamlessly.

I wonder why Chase didn't have DD and Rene with the rest of the gang, seems weird to kidnap them only to keep them all separated.

I'll be watching tomorrow was gonna today but than it went from horrible to even more horrible of a day

kostilicious

OMG the Lord Mesa Thing was the bestest ever

Oh Aaron I so feel you.. Felicity and Curtis was really overload..
His husband filed for divorce two or three episodes before

I so wanted to see her breaking out.. maybe in Flash.. they could have done that.. I wanted to see her so bad this week when Barry and Snart broke into Argus..

Paul and Katie are really the best.. the deliver in every silnge Scene.. wheter it is happy, sad or anything else..
I mean you could see it in Katie's face that she wanted to say, that she knows exactly how Quentin feels because she feels the same..

Nyssa and Malcolm Husband! lol

Oh how I love and hate that they bring her back.. I really looove that they haven't fogotten that Laurel was who brought Ollie through this hard time.. that it was her that gave him strength..

What? that was Manu.. what are you talking about?

I was confused too, why those two weren't with the rest of the Team.. hopefully we find out this week

Its Manu as far as I know - he actually returned
