Someone's gonna die (so they say....), place your bets.
¿Barry will be this episode?

Whoever keeps forcing Olicity should be the one to die.
I'm guessing it's Merlyn. Guilt over being the cause of every thing will cause him to sacrifice himself for redemption in Thea's eyes.
But I DON'T, that's the problem. I DON'T find his current behavior to be at all believable or consistent with his character arc thus far. Basically, the writers took it too far last episode and I simply don't buy it, nor do I sympathize with him at all. I see him as a petty, trigger-happy idiot who doesn't deserve to wear a badge.
Agreed. He's been on a highly emotional rollercoaster ride. I find his behavior perfectly believable and understandable.He is being irrational and pretty hard to understand, but how many of us are capable of understanding or relating to him in this moment? It is a pretty unique and crazy situation it has to be said. Who here has lost their daughter, believed she was dead and then for a miracle to have happened where she came back against all odds only for here to be taken away from you again? The manner in which she was taken is not exactly your run of the mill type of death either (ie being an assassin/vigilante/superhero). Couple that with being alone with his ex wife rejecting him and his daughter not telling him the truth ( I actually hold no grudge against Laurel and find it understandable how she struggled and I cannot say that I agree or disagree with her as I do not know how I would react in such a scenario, taking into account Lances emotional and drinking problems with his health not being particularly great either) and you have a guy in a very bad, dark place and nearing the end of his tether. It is true that it is a bit unbelievable how he is acting and that it is mostly there to move the plot forward but I wouldn't say that it is as unbelievable as some people are saying.
