When you're taught everything you learn by a supervillain it tends to be unlikely that they're not molding you to become their protege. And nobody should be malcolm merlin's protege. Psychos should not be training other people. If she wanted martial arts training she could have gone to like a judo class or something.

Is the secret to making thea more confident to make her more like a super villain? In my head there's a logic flaw there

Oh right. for some reason I placed it in the finale of last season. it still feels unlikely, unless it's like one of those initiations and you have to kill someone to be let into the club

wouldn't that be a defence attorney then?

Yeah because laurel is annoying and boring and what- she's going to be a murderous DA now? Kill the people she can't legally put away?

To be fair when Malcolm reappeared it took me a minute to realise who he was. And doesn't everyone think he's dead? If someone who showed up looking like Osama Bin laden today you'd most likely think- well that's an insensitive halloween costume

Speaking of the suicide squad, let's bring back Deadshot. He's always a good time

I doubt it. At that time thea probably wouldn't have had the physical strength to even pull back a bow

I love the idea of oliver not killing or not letting other people kill makes him weak or wrong. A private citizen can't kill other people and expect to be a hero or for people to consider him protecting the city. if you can't help it, then take the shot- but Oliver, Nyssa or Laurel are not judges or juries- you can't

I just kind of think that there's no point making the same criticism over and over when it's basically 'i don't like how he's in every episode'. If you're adding another character to the main cast that's generally what happens

I agree with jenny, but I think it's smart keeping henry popping in and out until they're ready for his bigger plans otherwise he becomes less threatening I think

i'm really not seeing the problems that make you condemn all of this season. Like him or not, hawley is an ally for them now who specialises in procuring dangerous items. Why would he not show up? How many dangerous and mystical items can there be?

no, the detective asks alison why he was invited to 'the wedding'

well we clearly don't know the full story yet. But it could be that cole's brother found out about the affair, or he slept with noah's daughter and noah killed him

everyone knows short hair means an evil woman

Well there really isn't a lot of point in an unlaced corset

I don't think he was doing anything wrong- I think he thinks of his son's death as a part of him, while alison's own grief colours everyone else's actions

I don't think we're seeing an objective view of his parents. You see in alison's version last week that his mother in law actually seems kind of nice and sympathetic. It would be my guess for the mother at least, that noah is reading into comments made by his mother in law and making them more literal, or changing the

I think it's too obvious for it to be cole. Sidenote- what wedding were they talking about? Alison and cole's or one we haven't seen yet?

that's the question- is she changing it because she doesn't remember, or is she manipulating the story purposefully? I don't know- I get a very killer vibe from the alison in the interrogation scenes
