The real Waller would never lose to such a third-rate lame-ass villain. The real Waller would have had him curled up on the floor blubbering like a little baby-man after ten minutes had passed.
You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

And if they killed off Waller, it probably means that they're bringing back Katana just so they can kill her off, too. Because they're both in the movie.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Oh, that would be BULLSHIT. I mean, if that's the reason.

Oh. Do you think this will lead to Lyla being in charge of ARGUS?

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

I jumped a foot from the couch when they killed off Waller. While the actress never quite pulled off the legendary ruthless badassery I kept hearing about re. the comic book version of Waller, this... seemed like a sadly ignoble ending to a significant character.
Oh. Do you think this will lead to Lyla being in charge of ARGUS?
All roads point to yes. If this happens, I would at least breathe a little easier because I always worry about Lyla getting killed off.
It was SO NICE to have a flashback that was relevant to the ongoing story for once. I had to groan at whassisface from the Island making an appearance at the final flashback though. I roll my eyes in advance at whatever cartwheeling they'd be doing to make the flashbacks relevant to the present plot, come season finale time.

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.
I kind of LOVE that the name "Oracle" was already taken.
Yeah. Though it's interesting that she actually exists in the Arrowverse, since there's been no other indication of the Batfamily.

The show might not be allowed to mention the Batfamily (even though Huntress is actually a Batman character t /Comic Book Guy ), and namechecking Oracle is the closest they could get.

Oh, and was flashback!guy whose name I can't be bothered to remember basically saying that yeah, Lian Yu is indeed the island from LOST? (Well, that's what his description sounded like, anyway. It made me roll my eyes hard.)

Yeah, the island stuff continues to be silly.
I will say a better way to tie the two plots together would have been to just have the military guys on the island have the Shadowspire patch and let the audience make the connection rather that having Commander Creepystare randomly show up in the Afghanistan flashback.
Though I imagine this connection wasn't thought up at the beginning of the season and was likely just thrown out there in the writer's room as a "Wouldn't it be cool if?"
