So here's my big question - what happened to Brick's thing about offering anyone who challenges him a chance to shoot him? We didn't see him do that in this episode when Laurel tried fighting him.

I think that's honestly been the biggest problem most of the fans have had with Laurel's suddenly assuming Sara's name. Laurel doesn't really have a relationship with anyone on Team Arrow apart from Ollie. We didn't see her socialize with any of these characters during Season 2. Like Felicity said when Laurel

Here's a question though - why didn't we see her punching people more when she's been training as a boxer? When did she ever train with a staff?

Yeah, I was wondering about that. Hopefully next week he'll ask about that and she'll be all "I promised I wouldn't crash it. I said nothing about other damages."

He may just show up in the background, silent. Like in the epilogue.

I figured it was just the stress of everything else finally catching up with him. Hank has become a lot more competent in a crisis but most of the instances where we see him being an idiot savant of super-spydom were when he had some prep time. Like Batman.

That DOES sound like a Bowie lyric, doesn't it?

As dead as anybody in a comic universe can be.

I recognized the song JUST as Rusty said that.

Yeah. The Captain's song is the best part of the show's epilogue.

Yep. Headshot hit him by accident when the boat he and Shoreleave were on was jostled by the exploding lair.

Yeah. There was really no point to anything that was added into Gracepoint from Broadchurch, save that letting us see Carver's daughter humanizes him a little more. Everything else was just more red-herrings.

And yet she doesn't think that what she's doing right now could get her killed and what THAT would do to her father.

And suddenly I'm picturing a bunch of shirtless assassins singing "Tradition" from Fiddler on the Roof.

So… is it too soon to start the petitions demanding Sara be taken to a Lazarus Pit so that she can avenge Laurel's death?

Mothers Intuition lets Dinah see through Laurel's lies but Laurel's detective father - who was seeing through her bullshit all of last Season - doesn't notice?

Or Keystone/Central are the St. Louis/Kansas City of the DC Universe.

There's some good ideas in this episode and it's spiritually in much the same vein (no mining pun intended) as the original Hellblazer comics, though they almost certainly would have told this tale in a Welsh mining town rather than a Pennsylvania town founded by Welsh miners. Still, the writer did their homework,

I suspect the lack of comments is due to most of the horror fans being out last night and not having woken up to see the new episode yet. Halloween on a Friday? I know I didn't get home until after 4 am and I passed out immediately…

Yeah. I'm wondering if the reviewer was really paying that close attention, given that they missed the whole bit in the opening where we find out John is using smoke-reading magic to learn the lottery numbers and Chas handed him an envelope full of cash.
