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.

Alison+Donnie 4EVAH! I forget, does Donnie have a job?

Rachel is very clever. Damn.

What was that line last week about Helena needing to do her own thing? That was pretty much Helena being Helena.

I can't quite believe this episode came with assbabies.

Heh. I didn't think of it from that perspective. Metahilarious!

I had joked to myself that Alison and Donnie were going to have the best sex of their marriage if they pulled this off, but I guess I was right.

And OMG Helena burning the whole place down. I hope she let the (non-human) animals out at least.

I can't quite believe this episode came with assbabies. Or, you know. Close to.

Well, um, we don't know EXACTLY where she inserted that do we? I think Helena might have been a little more eye for an eye, so to speak.

Because books.

Oh yeesh, Frank, I didn't think of that. Well, too bad for him.

I was very worried Felix was dead. George R.R. Martin better never start writing for this show.

Any ideas what "Topside" might mean?

Do Rachel and Michelle Forbes's characters even know about Helena? They seem so insistent on Sarah but Helena is her twin.

I suspect either not knowing about Helena, or discounting her as a force is going to bite them...somewhere. Probably the ass, but with Helena, who knows. I don't think she'll like them using Keira (?) like they are.

Again, I say, I want a Helena/Rachel F2F so soon. Rachel doesn't even know what she's in for if she's having this many problems with Sarah.

Actually, I think Alison and Donnie would eff up her world too at this point.

Wait, who said that? I missed that, probably either clapping for Donnie and Alison or gasping that Felix was hurt.

When Marian asked Rachel how she was, she said something like "you can tell Topside that Rachel is up to it". If I heard right. But anyway, got the impression that there is a beyond Dyad entity that Marian represents.

Ah! Oh. That's probably not good.
