Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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.

AAAAAAAAAAAAH, noooooooooooo!

I might need a beer.

Oh, wait. The "I love you" was a fake-out, wasn't it? Because Slade had the mansion bugged. Crafty!

But NO KILLING FELICITY.

Cop Daddy is not dead. Cop Daddy is NOT DEAD. God damn it.

I actually can't blame Thea for her poor choices, because her good choices didn't work out so well for her.

I refuse to believe Cop Daddy is dead.

It certainly didn't help poor Thea that Ollie was doing a good job of being the World's Worst Brother.

Laurel will never fit that jacket.

Ugh. The show is so damn determined to make it work. Feh.

Oh, Amanda Waller. You sly fox.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Wheeee!

Surprisingly few body counts. I didn't think Oliver would hold onto his no-killing ethos, but he managed to, which impressed me.

Felicity was so fucking awesome, I can't even. I was SO TORN at that out-of-the-left confession. I mean, there was a bit of squeeing, I won't deny it. But a bigger part of me was "NOOOO TOO SOON." This way, I got to have my cake and eat it, too. Win-win!

I am consoled that they didn't kill Quentin outright. I mean, it's the season finale! Someone had to be in mortal peril. I can live with Schroedinger's Quentin.

Sara's alive and with Nyssa, Slade in the custody of ARGUS, Thea going on Awesome and Probably Homicidal Adventure with her birth daddy -- wow, these are way better outcomes than I could have hoped for! I am well pleased.

And now we have to watch the finale of SHIELD. I don't know if I should get another beer or not.
