Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

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.

And, let's make this better, let's say you're a nurse. Why on Earth wouldn't you go to him?

because his two best friends are trying to hold you back and telling you not to go?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

because his two best friends are trying to hold you back and telling you not to go?

One of whom you've literally just met, and the other of whom you have reason to believe is the source of his problems. (Mitchell: not inspiring trust!) No, I don't see any way Nina could have not gone to him, considering the circumstances.

Well, Mitchell actually forcefully preventing her from doing so might have worked. He might not have been a match for Herrick, but surely he could have restrained a normal person of less than his mass for the minute or so it would have taken?

He was being too emo and distracted to do anything that practical. The only things that detracted from Annie's awesomeness in this ep were that she did not finish off giggly-vamp, and that she did not react quickly to save Nina from herself. I really don't care about the weepiness. She weeps easily, as some people do. It does not stop her from being a badass.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Annie indeed accessed her inner badass this ep. I wonder why her power to affect the world increased? More self-confidence, or because she didn't go through the door?

I was terribly afraid Nina was going to kill herself. Can a werewolf commit suicide? How do you kill a werewolf in this world?

How long do we have to wait for the next season?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

How do you kill a werewolf in this world?

BBC America has a small list of their rules, but they don't address it.

And her clothes changed, did anyone else notice that? Usually she wears a cardigan, but somehow it changed to a cowl necked sweater with swoopy sleeves.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I read something that addressed the problem of Annie's clothes - they picked out what she wore carefully so they could make it look like different things, because she could never change outfits. I think that was the same wrap, that looks like a cardigan most of the time. The cowl part can be pulled up into a hood, too.

At one point, it didn't have shoulders, but now it does. I thought about the convertible wrap thing, but the sleeves changed.
