Wait is that Sara in the preview?!

I wouldn't be surprised:

-Caity Lotz will be in the spinoff show.
-It looks like Sara's canary.
-She'll probably be the "proof" about how the Lazarus Pits can bring back the dead, but not necessarily in the "right way." Like how Jason Todd was in the comics (only hopefully handled better than that was).
 
I am guessing that Sara is part of a flashback, but I dont think that is Caity in the costume, so i dont know if she will factor in much.

If she is back. I hope Lance never finds out. Maybe right before he dies. Would be acceptable
 
DC/CW totally planned for this episode to be released after the release of DD and the fightclub promo too.
 
I love how the Lazarus Pit in Arrow works exactly like in the comics. Heals, keeps one young, loses effects the more it's used, resurrects the dead, and makes one insane as well. Not a single difference from the comics in terms of the effects. Love it!

Insanity part doesnt last.
 
Curious, did Ray and Felicity finally break up with each other in this episode? Or at least plant the seeds for it?
they didn't but he suspect she has feelings for oliver still.

She's all over Oliver's with her touchy feely hands. he should blame her for it not oliver & leave town for Star labs after she ruin's thing's for him team arrow as allies .

And keep his distance when ever she visits the place too.

there's nothing for him in starling I tell ya
 
I.....don't know what to say. Really. I don't. This episode has me pretty speechless.

I just....

Look. What do you want from me,Arrow? What? This thing has spiraled so way out there,that even I- who is usually able to roll with anything- am confounded.

So,Roy is dead,but he isn't. This conveniently gets him out of the series (at least for the foreseeable future) so they don't have to-you know- actually dedicate some storylines to him. And we can focus on the more important things in life, like Laurel struggling to be the Black Canary,the Olicity eternal triangle,Digg taking up space and Merlyn doing his Cheshire Cat routine.

The Ra's storyline just *****. It just does and I don't know what it takes to save it anymore. "Damn you,Queen! I'm going to make your life miserable until you agree to become a sultan with an eternal life-generating pool and a thousand soldiers at your command!" :dry: I mean, I don't remember Ra's going to such extremes with Batman. Batman foils him,then he moves on. Give it a rest Ra's,for pity's sake.

Now he's killing Thea. Of all people that could've used the pit,it's Thea? It might be a good choice in the end,but I'm just-whatever.

The whole thing with Ray- sheesh- can they make the guy any more incompetent? It's bad enough it's taking him 15 years to get his suit built -he needed Felicity to hold his hand 90% of the time- but he can't beat that Richard Simmons guy that weighed a buck ten, in a fist fight without Oliver guiding him?

So we have DC's Cyclops to go with DC's Colossus from the Flash. :oldrazz:

Ray completely letting Felicity off the hook,too. He's too good for her.:oldrazz:

The Flashbacks: I don't even know what happened.....Marc Singer turned bad and tried to kill Waller? Now the whole family is going to do something with the Omega drug? I don't even care anymore.

So,it's still a mystery how they survive in the pipeline.:hehe: I wonder long they can draw that out.

Lance- What the heck are they gonna do with him now? He finds religion again and becomes a good guy?

I just don't know what they think they're doing.It's all over the place from week to week. I guess putting Roy "on the bus" is sort of the last straw for me.But I guess, it could be worse.He could be dead and we'd have to wait for some miraculous revival a la Caity Lotz.

So this week was A.T.O.M Ironman week huh:woot:
Okay episode,finally found a way to get Ray involved with Team Arrow(even though it wasn't perfect). Hopefully he starts martial arts training if he wants to continue down this path. Also, did Roy, Diggle, and Felicity let Laurel on this plan because it seems without Laurel pulling legal reason for Oliver going free, Lance would have kept both Oliver and Roy.

Shame Roy had to leave. Poor Thea. First she dies, next episode she recovers, but comes back little crazy. Such is the way of the Lazarus Pit.

Also flashbacks, what was the point other than "You got to let others help you"?
 
I love Sara but what does this mean for Laurel?

Her whole journey was because Sara had died, I know Sara is on the team up show so Laurel will still be Black Canary but what does this mean for Laurel's story.
 
Just because she shows up, doesnt mean that she is alive in present day. They will want to establish someone being brought back to life so we will most likely start with a flashback that involves Sara bringing someone back to life via LP.

Hm most likely. She was probably really hurt when the league found her so she probably took a dip in the pit.
 
So what happens to Arrow now? The elephant in the room seems to be if he ever puts the suit on again,Lance will come after him again.(And the "Roy is Arrow" alibi will be dead and buried) Yet the show is called "Arrow", so one would assume he will suit up again eventually.
 
I hope Roy is only gone for the rest of the season and somehow makes a comeback next season ... unless they're doing something with him in the Spin-off, or were told to kill him off to free up the character for use in the Teen Titans show. For some reason, I was waiting for them to say he was going to Bludhaven.
 
He will totally be back. But they will have to come up with a good reason for him to be able to reappear in Starling. Ignoring it like they have with Malcolm would only be annoying, not to mention that is yet another secret from Quentin to piss him off.

Oh ****, I hope that's not the case.
 
When we made Colton’s deal, he was coming off of Teen Wolf where he was beloved, and he had a lot of opportunities,” Berlanti said during a recent phone interview. “So we did a trial thing where we said, for his sake and ours, ‘We’ll just do a bunch of episodes and see if you like it and if you enjoy it.’ And he did. Then pilot season came up that year and before another pilot could snatch him up, we made a two-year deal, so we always knew we were on a clock.”

I'm currently watching this now.

I didn't think it was possible, at least not a year ago, but watching any scene with Oliver and Felicity makes me feel like I want to rip my eyes and ears off.

Good lord, they're painful to watch (and I don't mean that in some Olicity Fan type of way).

Do the producers even realize that both of their shows (Flash and Arrow) are being weighed down by their crappy flagships?
 
Bringing Roy back shouldn't be a big deal. He was a street kid from the glades.He wasn't a "big name" like the Queens & Merlyns. Once things blow over he should be able to blend back in.Presumably with the aid of Lyla/Argus giving him a new background/name/whatever.
 
Oh ****, I hope that's not the case.
Based on the excerpt that Primal posted, it thankfully seems to not be the case, although I wonder why they didn't try to get him back for another year.

I guess next season will be very different if Roy is gone, Oliver is away from the Arrow suit for a bit, and Laurel is the only costumed regular that will still be around. I wonder if they leave Starling for a while in the present day.

I'd really love for him to be a founder in the titans live action show it just makes sense as for the spin off show. he have stories & not be a after thought for a bit til the arrow writers have stuff for him.

I'd like that too. but that's not likely

I'm sorry if the writers of this show can't do much with him give to people with the talent & time to do so.

Til the writers of this show do have the time for him.

I don't know if I believe that Colton wanted to exit the series, unless he doesn't like to be tied down long term, I dont see him wanting to leave. 23 episode series gets you a nice yearly paycheck and he isn't exactly the biggest star.

Wasn't his face all over the news? Everyone knows that face as Arrow now, they aren't going to just forget what he looks like.
