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.

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

Meanwhile over on Arrow, until they show the body, Deadshot is still alive.

Agreed.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm wondering how easily Lyla can just resign from ARGUS. They seem like the mafia -- like, the only way out is to die. It can't be as easy as just resigning.

I'm pretty amused that Starling City mayors are like Spinal Tap drummers (or BTVS magic shop owners).

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm just wondering why there are still people living in Starling City at all, what with vigilante Robin Hood types shooting people full of arrows all over the place and a crazy tycoon who actually leveled a neighborhood with an earthquake-making device.

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

Where else can you get a really good Big Belly Burger?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Really good schools?

It's also home to a number of high-tech employers, like Palmer Industries, and Kord Industries.

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

Big Belly Burger is a chain! You can get it in Central City. Not that CC isn't beset by all kinds of catastrophes, mind you.

As for the episode itself, I wanted more wedding / reception shenanigans and feel a bit cheated that part only lasted the first 5 minutes. The show has been so grim this season, I wanted some stretch of levity. Woe.

I love Floyd and am in the "he's not dead until we see a body" camp. Not that seeing a body means anything on this show. That said, I don't think the flashbacks were that illuminating. Well, except for the H.I.V.E name drop! I don't think we heard about them since the Russia episode a season and a half ago.

Ray and Oliver fighting over what is best or not best for Felicity made me do an epic eyeroll. That woman has a bigger brain than both of yours combined and can make up her own damn mind about what she wants, thank you very much.

So, did Lyla talk Diggle out of quitting Team Arrow? (I love that he calls it Team Arrow.) It wasn't clear to me.

Me too. I was hoping this was going to be the light, fun episode before all the endgame badness really started.

It seemed so, but they never said it outright.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Also, Barry and Wells' first conversation about time travel was in front of the treadmill. I SEE WHAT YOU DID THAR, SHOW.

'Splain, please?

In the comics, Barry Allen time-travels by using the Cosmic Treadmill.
