Tough to see how the other metas could be restored, as they keep repeatedly saying they’re dead (rather than brain-dead with their bodies still alive). But Ralph should be salvageable, with the mind-transference tech and Cecile (or her baby’s) powers.

The Salmon Ladder survived his first lair, and the second one underneath the Verdant nightclub (remember that place? Oh, Thea’s not here any more so we don’t have to!)

YES. Why does she have to decrypt the drive right there on the physical hardware at the NTA bunker? Cloud computing is a thing, Felicity! Your actual machines should be in a secure datacenter thousands of miles away; you’d have been able to monitor the decryption process from your phone as you speed away from the…

She totally needs to join the Legends and have some big redemption arc. Or else be a returning antagonist for them!

I like to think that he knows her on Earth-2 and she’s so radically different from DA Cecile Horton that whenever he calls Earth-1 Cecile by her full title it makes him giggle inside.

Then there’s the incredible leap of logic concerning Marlize and her trip to Kenya. “My wife got injured by barbaric terrorist gangs who wanted to steal her tech, so my solution is to dumb everyone down to the level of those terrorist gangs and hope that humanity doesn’t descend into riotus unending violence!”

Yeah, but Barry can do time-travel himself and accomplish the same goal, and he’s sworn off it for good (or so he says) because he doesn’t want to mess up his friends’ lives again by creating another Flashpoint. Granted, the Legends seem to have incredible dramatic license when it comes to time-travel and fixing anachr…

Earth X Black Siren appears to have super-hearing powers too, which either “our” Black Siren doesn’t have or hasn’t learned yet.

Using Earth-X Laurel seems to have been a cost-cutting measure. No need to hire new actors, just borrow Katie Cassidy for an episode! They even get to re-use her SFX too. But like you said, it does have unfortunate implications for Arrow’s storyline this season. Well, it would if the producers didn’t just pretend that…

Between 2018 and 2213 we’ve got the Argus-run police state era that Zari comes from, and the era where Vandal Savage rules the world and kills Rip’s family in the 22nd century. Compared to that, cloning seems relatively benign.

Elvis’s singing voice in this episode was provided by veteran voice actor Jess Harnell, who’s probably best known as Wakko Warner in Animaniacs.

They really need to call Sara, have her come down to Star City and slap some sense into her old man. Unfortunately Arrow seems to be pretending that Legends doesn’t exist (perhaps wisely: too many plotholes if you can summon a futuristic timeship with instant-healing capabilities on a whim; Gideon would fix Rene right…

Well, except for acid. Pragmatic Team Flash should immediately whip up a vat of the Trickster’s stuff from a few weeks ago, as a precautionary measure - just like how Batman keeps kryptonite on him at all times. The second DeVoe grabs Ralph, it’s melting time! However, we instead have Stupid Team Flash, so this will…

DeVoe is just “The Thinker”. The Mad Thinker is a Marvel villain.

Although they hadn’t figured this out at the time, DeVoe has a pocket dimension teleporter and can go anywhere he/she likes, so even running Izzy to China (with Big Sir and Wally!) might not have saved her.

Rip (Arthur) sings... adequately, like a regular guy doing karaoke. Wally (Keiynan) has a genuinely good singing voice, though! Do I smell the beginnings of another Arrowverse musical crossover episode?

I love the little callbacks to Constantine’s series. The title card homage, the re-use of his harpsichord theme, mentions of Newcastle and Astra - though I really do want to know what Chas and Zed are doing, and whether or not they and John managed to stop the Brujeria in the end.

DeVoe’s “resurrection” completely falls apart under the slightest scrutiny, too. So did “DeVoe” bust out of his own coffin and dig his way up and out of his grave, using only his arms?! What if they’d had the body cremated?

Even better, the two series are ostensibly taking place in the MCU at roughly the same time. So two completely separate groups of people, led by a mysterious, aloof-yet-charismatic leader (Sigourney Weaver / Julian McMahon) hatched a plan to get what they want by digging a Big Giant Hole in a major American city at…

He has to give up one of his own As if he does. He was born A. A. A. A. A. A. Dowd.
