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.

Because books.

Ah! Oh. That's probably not good.

I must say I admire Helena not holding a grudge against people who tried to kill her.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Aaaaaaaaahhhhh, Allison/Donnie 4EVAH. Didn't I say accidental murder would bring them together? And OH ALLISON, worrying about the asymmetrical tape on the body bag.

Rachel-as-Sarah was fucking SCARY. So far this show has been pretty good about not killing people off but I'm worried about Keira. Maybe Helena will rescue her.

I would be fine with her burning the fucking cult down, but there no evidence she saved any of the kids. Gracie and AWOL Lover Boy and nobody else. So she burnt all of the other kids in the cult alive? Or did I miss something?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I thought we only saw the barn complex burning, not the residential area.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

A HuffPo review mentioned a cut scene where Helena lets the kids out. That's good enough for me.

Good to hear about this. Considering Helena's reaction to how the teacher was treating one of the kids earlier in the episode, I assumed she would not have put the kids in danger, but it would have been nice to have some confirmation on screen.

It did seem out of character otherwise. For a serial killer, Helena has a soft spot for kids. Also from now on. my pocket descriptor for Rachel will be "Stockholm Syndrome Clone".

Agreed. I wasn't too worried about it, but still.
