Is she actually carrying them at this point, though? When Jo died, she was pregnant enough to be showing, while Caroline, over six months after the wedding, shows no signs of being pregnant. So it seems kind of iffy whether the twins are physically inside her, or if it's just their spirits that have been attached to

Maybe the spell just sent the babies into the nearest available uterus, and that just happened to be Caroline's.

Though they could possibly reveal that he's their distant ancestor. Hopefully their distant ancestor on their father's side, though, 'cause otherwise him and Lily would be extra creepy.

Eh, I'd say being turned into a vampire against your will counts as a worse bodily violation, but no one seems to mind that plot development.

Steven Spielberg's "The Hobbit"

Regardless of legality, you'd think they'd be under orders to not start spraying bullets around all the million-dollar pieces of equipment.

This season's opening car chase/battle-in-a-truck begs to differ.

I don't think there's any way they can kill Felicity off. She's too useful to the plot. Without her magical computer powers, they'd have to keep thinking of new ways to explain how Team Arrow finds information on the bad guy of the week.

Oliver's always been funny. It's just not always intentional on his part.

Some things are definitely feeling rushed, though. If they didn't have to have all their pieces in place by the crossover episode, I imagine we'd probably have gotten two or three episodes with re-ensouled Sara before leaving starts to seem like her only option.

Oliver's always had surprising vulnerabilities like that. One of my favorites is when Moira referred to running Verdant as being Oliver's "hobby", and Oliver actually seems kind of hurt she called it that.

Felicity isn't "up to snuff" as a tech person!? The woman hits like five keys on a computer, and suddenly she's hacked into NORAD. I think Alasdair said last season that Felicity is the character on this show who comes closest to having an actual superpower, and I'm inclined to agree.

Agree about the episode; best of the season so far.

I think the idea is that, while older people have more money, they're already pretty set in their ways. If they've been drinking Coke for the last 60 years, they're not going to suddenly switch to Pepsi, no matter how many ads you throw their way. Young people, meanwhile, are seen as being more malleable, more easily

At the end, when Thea says she's feeling stressed, then suggests she and campaign manager guy go somewhere together . . . was I the only one worried she was "stressed" because her blood lust was building up again, and she figured that guy could be good for a little relief?

Det. Lance: "We said we were never gonna talk about that!"

I think it's more that, since zombies can't have sex without turning their partner into a zombie, each person they have sex with literally results in a new mouth they have to feed.

We don't really know any other zombies well enough to tell whether their behavior is caused by the brains they ate or their own personality. Like last season when Blaine kept talking about Jon Bon Jovi throughout an episode: is Blaine actually a Bon Jovi fan, or did he just eat the brains of someone who was? We just

Paring it down to just ONE tech-support team would probably help.

I actually kinda liked Elektra, but then, I'm a sucker for the "knowing martial arts gives you superpowers" genre.
