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.
I felt it was too obvious that AltLincoln was going to die. That disappointed me that it indeed played out that way.
Someone on IO9 is saying that our Lincoln
is a shifter.
Is that something we know? I whited it out in case it's a spoiler. I have absolutely no knowledge of this at all. I missed it, both onscreen and in discussion.
I guess they only made a cursory pass at the screen with the trackers, because they didn't work out that one of them is going off
in their HQ.
Wouldn't it be important to look and see where all of them are, ASAP? I thought that was kinda weird. I was sure that shoe would drop before episode's end.
That is not something we know; I assume it's a theory. Hope it's not a spoiler.

Yeah, especially given the speculation that Broyles is a shapeshifter. Well, we speculate; they have no reason not to trust him.
Oh, you're right--we don't know why he's a leak. That just seemed to be the simplest explanation. They might also have leverage on him, or he could just be sympathetic to their cause.

THANK YOU. I don't see how there wouldn't have been more discussion of that, even if I'd missed the reveal/implication on the show.
Well, Broyles and Nina have a history (well, I don't remember whether the alternate versions do as well), so I don't think it's necessary for him to be a shapeshifter to be a turncoat. He doesn't seem reluctant, so I don't think it's a leverage issue, but it's entirely possible that she's convinced him to help her using normal human means.
Good ep. Our Lincoln slays me, poor noodle. Also found it curious that Alt!Lincoln died off screen. I think he's gone deep undercover to try to figure out who the leak is. I don't know how, exactly, but given that was the last thing he was talking about to our Lincoln (finding the leak), that's what I think. Shut up.
There was some speculation at Mark Watches now that I've read the liveblog. That The Lincoln we saw delivering the shape shifter to Walter and Peter was Alt!Lincoln, and he's staying on "our" side..
I had the possible sense of that myself, DCJ. They do look alike, after all.
As usual, I really liked the way Jasika played alt-Astrid (Altstrid?)
Someone on MW called her Kickasstrid, which I liked. The AV Club reviewer calls her Austrid, presumably because she's autistic, but it sounds too much like "ostrich."
My favorite little thing from this episode - Evil altNina! complete with Evil chic, deep red hair and black leather!
