Henry's mother's maiden name was Garrick. That has to be a clue, right?
It HAS to be. This show is not good at subtle.
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Maybe the man in the mask is Henry II, who changed his name to Jay Garrick for reasons and was the original Earth II Flash, captured by Zoom who then stole his identity.
It's an old DC thing. Clark was Ma Kent's maiden name.

Henry II as in Henry Plantagenet, King of England? Is Eleanor d'Aquitaine there, too? I would watch the heck outta that!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

They fight crime and bicker incessantly about the succession!

Watching last night's Flash now. I had not taken notice last week that Tom Cavanaugh whispers that whole build another particle accelerator line to Barry. Good Lord, Tom Cavanaugh whispering is my new aesthetic.

I feel like The Flash is just a mess these days. Building a new particle accelerator is not a good plan, and they go back and forth between referring to S1 "Wells" as Wells or Thawne depending on what the plot calls for as if they're interchangeable. Like Earth 2 Wells feeling guilty about what the other him did, even though his real Earth 1 counterpart was an innocent man based on what we know so far.

They couldn't get Constantine back for Arrow? Weak.

Thinking about the timeline of the funeral on Arrow, given the fact that Barry is on some other Earth now, I think Laurel's funeral was supposed to have happened before Barry lost his speed.

Yeah, they just suck at crossovers. Not the episodes themselves but making them line up in any way.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
No Constantine? Damn. I really liked that show.

This may have been my favorite Arrow ep of the year.
