Was that the one with Miss Demeanor and the guy who shot handcuffs and the lady with the brain outside her head? I freaking loved that show even though I apparently have no memory of any specific episodes.

Speaking of Bond, the plot is basically the same as License To Kill.

I think you mean formerly Penny's boyfriend on Happy Endings. Come on, AV Club, know your audience.

I know! They kind of skipped over the best tidbit about that casting!

Fine… respects her, if not likes her. As evidenced by the fact that he trained her in the first place. The other things you describe are part of the training. Sure, killing the actress was a test, but obviously the assassination needs to be completed eventually after Arya didn't do it. It always seemed to me that…

Jaqen likes Arya, and it seems pretty clear he never bought her claims during her training that she was no one. Maybe he had to save face (rimshot!) and let the Waif uphold the rules, but now he is just letting Arya go.

Does anyone besides this reviewer really want character growth on Archer?

The night time is the right time!

I legitimately LOL'ed reading the concept of the Anne Frank house joke here… but I think I would've preferred laughing when I saw it in the movie :/

Thank you! I couldn't figure out why that c-gate plot felt so familiar!

Just finished The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah. Not the type of book I usually read and the writing was a little silly, but I did cry the entire last chapter. Just started on Total Chaos by Jean-Claude Izzo, a "Mediterranean noir" novel set in Marseille. Should be a pretty dramatic change of pace!

No, but there was that MacGyver episode where he was on a heaven cruise ship.

Please, can't we call it a tallywacker?

Ah, thank you, I missed that thread

Or most-est obvious reference, Bel Canto is a book about people at a fancy party being taken hostage. Though Google Translate doesn't seem to think that Panto means anything in any language. Nice pants?

That would be just so incredibly mean to Det. Lance. Lance not knowing a daughter is alive would be the new Merlyn in the Arrowcave or Oliver keeping an unnecessary secret.

My biggest laugh of the episode was Diggle beefing up the bunker's security, then no one being surprised Merlyn got in.

I have a feeling Stephen Amell might not quite be in shirtless salmon ladder shape these days…

I think you mean bee-lieve?

To be honest, I was kind of with Oliver during that tirade. Tone it down, Mr. F.
