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.

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

Should I wander away and come back when someone can tell me the high school student isn't viscerally unbreakable-without-torment enslaved to the murdering rapist guy?

I don't care if he knows or not, HOW IS THAT NOT CREEPY?

(And, seriously--Stefan (I have only now realised my mnemonic is that they share initials and birth order with the other brothers) seems to have missed the guilt boat, and that's why he's so popular...why can't Jeremy just kill them all...maybe now he'll have a pang?)

Art Crawl!!!

Apparently the sire bond in vampires only happens if the original human had feelings for the vamp who turned him/her.

Are you saying you want to know if Damian does the right thing and leaves? Or tells Elena to spurn him?

I'm not sure how they're supposed to break the bond and keep the cast together, and since the cast is staying together, something slightly different has got to happen.

Why has it happened twice to Damon and apparently so rarely to anyone else? No one in the recent history of ever turned someone with feelings for them? I don't remember the Catherine timeline, but how does that not qualify with at least one of them?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Can someone tell me what happened in the last few seconds of Haven last night? My DVR cut out just as the psychiatrist (who I think Audrey figured out was the bolt gun killer) said "hush".

Drew the bolt gun and said something on the lines of "How did you figure it out?" So Audrey is now being held at bolt-gunpoint.

Thanks Typo Boy! I figured it was something like that.

But how was she the bolt gun killer, and why did echoing Brady give her away? I actually thought I was paying attention this time.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

ita ! I have no idea, but I picked her as the bolt gun killer as soon as Audrey interviewed her at the beginning of the episode. She was too smooth about covering up what she got wrong.

But how was she the bolt gun killer, and why did echoing Brady give her away?

1) The brothers had only mentioned that the bolt gun killer wanted to know where the Colorado kid was. But therapy girl also noted that they had been questioned about the barn. (Note Audrey did not know for sure that the brothers had been questioned about that. But she knew they were lying when they said the Colorado Kid was the then only subject brought up in their torture session.

2) Using the word "hush" was a further giveaway, cause that was not echoing Brady, it was echoing what Brady heard the bolt gun killer say.

One thing I don't know for sure is how the bolt gun killer passed the test as therapy girl. But my guess: therapy girl kept extensive files.
