6.04 Arrow - Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

[RakuMon]

Also, in "Red," Red-K Clark told Pete about the mole on Chloe's left buttock.

"Arrow" was freakin' fantastic! Love Hartley as GA (though I thought the Bat music was a little much. Still, knowing that Bats will never ever be on the show, seeing GA take on the BW storylines is good enough).

I too noticed that Clark was barely in the episode. I turned to my wife around 8:25 and we were both like "Where's Clark?"

I loved so many things that I'll only list a couple things that continue to irk me:

1. Lana. 'Nuff said.
2. Martha contemplating a run for U.S. Senate? Please, no.
3. Get Lois OUT of the Talon. NOW! Seriously, why is she living at the Talon? Get her an apartment in Metropolis. Have her room w/ Chloe. And you don't even need to build a new set. Just redress the Talon apartment and call it an apartment that overlooks Metropolis. Esp. since Lois is working at the Inquisitor (even if she's only freelancing for now), it only makes sense to get her out of Smallville. Seriously, why did those thugs drive her three hours just to waterboard her? And how did Ollie get their so fast? All these distance inconsistencies can be solved very easily if Lois lived in Metropolis.

Anyway, other than the issue of Lois living at the Talon, I loved this episode. Definitely the best of the season and one of the best of the series!

red-K Clark mentioned how he saw chloe mole as been stated before, so obvioulsy Clark can see through clothes if he wanted to.

Clark's powers in Smallville

The general trend of Clark's powers is that they grow more powerful each season. Each new power generally manifests itself suddenly and uncontrollably and Clark must establish control without exposing his secret. The Smallville series begins with Clark aware only of his superstrength and superspeed. Within each season the highest limits of Clark's abilities are used to describe the gradual evolution of these powers.

Now who's not making sense.

See-thru was only used in "X-ray" and never again, have you ever seen him use it since then? No, because it's called X-ray vision and not See-thru vision, and that's what they wanted.

Using it on GA or anyone else with a mask/hood/glasses or whatever they have would be useless since it would only show the skeleton like they always show us, the scene blksuperman2 was talking about before is this:

I would think Clark would actually want to see his face.

I have a feeling The Black Kryptonian box from "Zod" is what's going to Re-Power up The Fortress Of Solitude in "fallout" .

yes....i agree

 

[The Caped Knight]

As for the whole X-ray issue

Clark's powers are increasing as he becomes older.

So it's only a matter of time before , his x-ray vision devleops into [Telescopic vision] & [Microscopic Vision] .

Okay.. one more point, now that I've rewatched the ep: What the hell are they doing with Lois and Chloe's relationship? More specifically, this is the second ep that I thought Chloe was showing signs of cousin-envy.

Personally, I think its just going to be friendly rivalry. Kind of like the Lois and Clark relationship. Lois hates to be outscooped, so I think they're just setting up that side of her personality.

And on my second viewing, I dont think Tom/Clark was sporting a zit, I think it was a knock on the forehead. It looked like a bruise.

 

[avidreader]

Yeah, definitely not enough Clark, especially in the first couple of acts, but he was so supermanly in the final acts it more than made up for it in my mind.



Loved this ep.

What happened to your review for Wither. Did I miss it at Ksite?

 

[Kaboom]

LOL..dont even get her started on that one!

 

[avidreader]

And I agree with Avid (again), more white T-Shirts for Clarkie.

Did you notice whilst Clark was wearing his angelic white, Ollie was in all black?

Clark is STILL the man! t:

And I also noticed Lana was wearing a white jacket this episode, which to me kind of indicated that although her scenes made her look like a "badass" she was actually being good.

 

[The Caped Knight]

I'm thinking the same thing Kal.

yes....i agree

Great minds think alike . t:

 

[avidreader]

That was kinda my point in my previous post. Where'd it come from? Are the writers setting Lana up to be some sort of double spy? It's ridiculous. She's what... 20? How is it going to be believable that she can double-cross Lex *and* Lionel so well, yet she's dumb as a stump when it comes to Clark? It's just silly. And if the writers *do* go in that direction, just watch some of the hardcore haterz lay into Lana like you've NEVER seen before. They'll begin to wonder if she was sleeping with Clark for similar reasons: to get to the bottom of Teh Secret.

I don't think that at all, but just watch grasshopper. I'm calling it here and now.

I think for the moment she's putting Clark aside. No scenes together is a good indication of this.

But I also think she's acting this way because she feels like she's burned so many times that this time she's gonna take a stand and make sure she doesnt.

Its good character growth for her.

yea in that last scene i was like "where's his blue tee-shirt?"

Lana= served her purpose, time to go!

Lois= know her dad probably taught her some fighting moves, but c'mon, getting Ollies bow awayfrom him like that, really???

Well it could be that since Green Arrow has a thing for Lois he's not going to use all his strength to fight her off.

I didnt think that was unrealistic.

Lois is a well trained army brat , Besides Oliver didn't want to hurt her .

 

[Kaboom]

anybody else find it odd that when Lois was unconcious from being "drowned" ollie didnt try to give her mouth to mouth?

do you think there is some kind of rule from TPTB that Lois cannot lip-lock another hero?

 

[Nautica7mk]

Lois is a well trained army brat , Besides Oliver didn't want to hurt her .

And he got caught off-guard. This isn't just some random save, he's dating her.

I didn't think that she drowned. I thought she was holding her breath for a really long time. And she has kissed Aquaman, so I don't think there's a clause about not kissing superheroes that isn't Clark Kent.

 

[KalKai]

She kissed A.C., and she probably will kiss Ollie in the near future.

 

[Chris Wallace]

There's not a whole lot I can say about this episode. I liked the action scenes, but the rest was just "Meh". Seeing the guy who used to play Boone just made me more upset about Blade getting 86'ed.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Justin said in his interview he get's to kiss her. [so no surprise their.]

I'm not saying anything about strength, just the mere fact that they allowed it to happen. He's a well conditioned machine and also why would he put himself in that predicament(sp?) not knowing Clark would be there to get him out of it? The bow is an extension of who he is, it would almost be like someone ripping supermans cape off of him.

Lois was passed out and he let his guard down because...well it was her, and she got the upperhand.
