Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm with you, Kristen. I immediately thought of the Phoenix!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I forgot about the Phoenix. That has to be it. Hope it helped him survive the fall.

Well, we know Mrs. Fredricks is already on her way back. Shame about the accomplice though. I guess the fact that I can't remember her name is an indication of why her character was chosen as the sleeper agent.

Leena. Vibey lady. Very vague. And then suddenly creepy sexual when she revealed her true colours.

It's kinda...flat that all McPherson wanted was revenge. Did he even take anything from the Warehouse on his way out? And when did Leena leave? Before him? As Leena? Are there no other cameras?

Our wings are not tired.

Leena was under the influence of some artifact or evil influence that can be forgiven, if they want her good again.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I was surprised they would end the first season on such a cliffhanger. Is it definitely coming back?

It got record numbers for them, so I'd think it was a done deal.

They definitely ordered a second season. But I'm pretty sure everything was shot long before the first episode even aired.

Can't be all he was after. He must have had time after he was through the umbilicus and before he left the Warehouse entirely to do something. He said something about coding, maybe he's gotten himself a backdoor now and can drop in whenever he likes, now that that pesky acidic blood obstacle is taken care of.

I can't even speculate about Leena, not enough background.

I got very confused about what McPherson wanted. I actually found the whole episode confusing.
