Malcolm Merlyn a dropout from the League of Assassins?
I think he believes he graduated.
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Well, that was kind of what I was going for ... but the only word I could come up with was "rogue" which, when referring to the LoA is kind of redundant, no?

If Ra's is responsible for Sara's death, I doubt he pulled the trigger himself. The two most likely candidates (going by the comics; they haven't appeared in the show yet) would be Shiva or Talia.
Given the overall direction of the show, if they go this route, there will probably be a sisterly showdown between Nyssa and Talia later this season.

Confession time - I've watched the first two episodes of the new season of "The 100" ... don't know if I'm deluded, but it seems to have improved.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Yeah, it's starting to sound more likely that Ra's sent someone to kill Sara and pin it on Merlyn. If he doesn't believe she was truly one of the League but also didn't want Nyssa to know he ordered her death, the current situation makes more sense.
ETA: I'm still not sure Ra's is responsible, though.
Side note: Diggle in street clothes running around with three hooded archers looked amusingly out of place.

I must catch up on Arrow.

Thrive to spite them
oh and I wasn't sure what was going on with Oliver's flashback stuff.
I know he wasn't on the island the whole time, he escaped with people and then was "rescued" but it wasn't really rescuing and at some point he discovers Sara is alive. Then he ends up working as a hired killer for a kind of secret government woman for reasons I don't understand. What was holding him back from contacting his family? And is this the part where he becomes a big deal with the Russians (I remember that from the first season ). I'm pretty sure S2 is on Netflix i need to watch it.

I did have to shake my head at Laurel's "This is all my fault" speech to Ollie. No, I think the grieving master assassin was planning to put an arrow into the man she believes murdered her girlfriend well before you told her to.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Diggle in street clothes running around with three hooded archers looked amusingly out of place.
I can dig that Ollie might need coverage because he's famous, but why does the kid need to hide his face if Diggle doesn't?
Katy Cassidy did a good job with the punching bag. I feel all warm and fuzzy and am thinking fondly of Ruby 1.0.
