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.

How assy a move is the duel thing when you're immortal? Pretty huge.

but he did it for HONOR

But doing that when you can't be killed is dishonorable on his part. He should have gone with some sort of public humiliation, disgrace to that guy's family name or something.

He's immortal - he can play the long game.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That didn't really bother me. The guy needed killing.

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

Killing him didn't bother me. Dressing it up as a duel did. Just up and shoot the guy and turn and run.

And were we supposed to think that that guy would "dual" with his coachman?

Or did I miss a scene where they explained that this would actually happen.

What year was the flashback for this episode? And where was the North with respect to slavery at that time?

Did he stay in the area all the 400 years?

Which would mean the slave trade was still in place--would there have been slaves in a typical household in the NY area at that time?

I'm just playing around with "women as rapable property" in my head.
