    But the problem with human shapes is how they get ahold of them in the first place. From what we've seen of Zygons they need personal contact to do that (otherwise they'd need a lot less in terms of plotting/trapping people/etc.). So you'd need millions of people (assuming that at some point you'd get lazy and just

    If so an awful lot of people are going to get a very strange surprise.

    Heck, if you printed out a picture of someone's mother* almost everyone would feel uncomfortable stepping on it. People could, of course, but it's more difficult than it should be from any reasonable perspective. We're… not always well built, psychologically speaking.

    It anything people would probably be excited: Americans love people with British accents. It's like automatic intellectual cred here.

    (2) would also be the assumption you'd need for fluctuating gravity right before it was hatched. So, probably yeah.

    There really have been a lot of hybrids this season. It's like the season where every other episode had some way in which the Doctor could get away with seeming like he'd been shot.

    What bothered me was the basic logistics of resettling twenty million zygons on earth. Mainly I'm curious where they got their human shapes from - it's not hard to imagine how they'd do that if there were, I don't know, a couple hundred of them. But twenty million?

    … a wonderful Doctress (?)

    It's possible, but the number of people who can shoot someone standing in front of them talking to them in cold blood is actually pretty low. Armies have to spend a long time training soldiers to the point where they'll reliably shoot at people who are shooting at them on a battlefield. Straight up killing someone

    It's worth noting, way way after people stopped reading (probably), that setting tax rates at 100% would only result in zero revenue if the revenue that the government received was never spent, or never spent on anything that involved the population being taxed.* So it's building in some really crazy assumptions from

    Many people do that.

    It's hard to see how changing a frequency would change it from "ow my ears" to literally hurling people through the air. My guess is that that's just what Cisco told her to make her shut up.

    In fairness she probably had a pretty good idea what the odds of a cop getting convicted for killing drug dealers are, even in cases where they have way better evidence. "Sure you can go ahead and arrest me but we both know I'll be back on the job in like six months anyway…"

    I prefer to imagine that he's one of those people who like to refer to themselves as "parents" of their dog. So what he has isn't a daughter it's a pekinese.

    I like the idea of watching Oliver get slowly more and more passive aggressive about the ring over time.

    Computer Security Manager: "Uh, Mr Palmer we've lost a lot of money this quarter due to people hacking into our computer systems and running off with..

    The cocaine could fit under executive retention bonuses!

    I'm still hoping the show at least acknowledges that a gun that makes gold is a possible source of profit. Would the Golden Glider really feel compelled to live a life of crime if she could literally just make two million dollars worth of gold within about two seconds on a whim?*

    I support your idea for Thea's fight choreography. If every fight she was in was just her leaping at people while yelling "Cannonbaaaaallll" it would be amazing.

    4. Or it just means that their jamming devices were set to the wrong frequency the second time, because they were still trying to jam the one she had been using before. I'm not sure that bit was too strange.
