4x12 - episode discussion

ROY HARPER RETURNS;
NYSSA MAKES HER MOVE



The team faces off against a formidable villain nicknamed The Calculator (guest star Tom Amandes). Meanwhile, Nyssa (guest star Katrina Law) makes her move and Roy Harper (guest star Colton Haynes) returns to Star City.

Kevin Fair directed the episode written by Speed Weed & Beth Schwartz (#412).

Basic Rules:
  • Be Respectful of other posters. Not everyone is going to agree or have the same views. Discussions are encouraged, but let’s keep things civil.
  • No Character/Actor Bashing. We love your opinions on storylines, but keep in mind that these are real people who are just trying to do the best with what they are given. We might not always like how things turn out, but just remember things can always get better.
  • Everything is a spoiler until it has aired.
  • Any talk of Illegal Downloading should not be brought up here. Live Streams & such can be discussed through PM's.
  • Most importantly, HAVE FUN!

It was a fairly enjoyable episode, very nice to see Roy back though it was a shame we couldn't see Speedy/Arsenal team up. I wasn't exactly sure, were those mercenaries Calculator hired. Ghosts? If not can they please get some different looks?

Seeing Katana, however brief, was so nice and this (to me) puts to bed that DC is forcing them to kill off these characters that they share with SS. Though was she going to spend her life sitting in front of that alter thing? The set looked straight from Tomb Raider which I loved.

And we get to add two more characters to "this is my life" speech to Oliver, that should hopefully be over with now.

I wonder why Oliver doesn't try to get in contact with Constantine again, at least mention that he has tried.

I was a bit surprised that they seemingly wrapped up the Palmer tech storyline. Though Papa Smoak could always jeopardize that in the future. I feel like the writers are kind of moving through Felicity's insecurities a little to quickly, I don't need 5-6 episodes of her agonizing or questioning herself, I think 2-3 episodes would be a good amount, but good for her getting back that fire in her for her job.

Nyssa having to rely on Oliver to fix her problem is so sad, she is never allowed any real wins and I want her to be the one to defeat Malcolm.

Laurel didn't get much to do, if she is in the grave, it will just piss me off that they wasted her last season not giving her anything GREAT like they did with Roy.

It didn't hit me during the episode but the CC line I guess alludes to him visiting his child. Good subtle set up.

Another okay episode..

I looved the Guilt Arrow thing.. specially after last week I complained about Ollie always thinking everything's his fault.. I really hope that will be better now..

I wondered that too, Aaron. That would be the easiest way to save Thea
I can't imagine that he'll kill Malcolm..

I looove that the Calculator is Felicity's dad I just love the actor.. this will be amazing

I'm just glad Roy wasn't killed in the end.. so there's still a chance he might be back someday

The CC line?

Way not enough Laurel. but Ilooved it she was the first there when the wound on Thea's chest opened up again

It'll be interesting now that her dad has been revealed still think the writers missed out on a grand chance where DD should have been her dad - but think seems interesting

Loved Laurel's little "computer geek" moments she's really picking it up and gives us Laurel/Felicity

the Thea/Roy scenes were so sweet I cried my eyes out especially when she was talking about the future she imagines for Roy.. I'll most porbably need therapy if they take away Thea x(( just NO

barely any scenes for Laurel uncool.. I didn't even enjoy the episode as a whole.

I totally didn't get why Nyssa would ask Oliver to finish the job for her. like she can't do it on her own, come on now Oliver won't do it either cause they're kinda fine with each other now. Nyssa would have a much better chance..of course she's got something to offer, it's probably easier that way but it still felt weird to me

Roy and Thea are amazing and I have missed them so much

Laurel as always is awesome

I cannot believe the Calculator turns out to be Felicity's Dad!! That is where she gets her brains from!

I know right she's so brainy from her father, even if he's a criminal

Roy/Thea completely miss them too
