Oliver’s Death
I know it’s going to happen, and of course I am hoping for some sort of resurrection or twist to avoid the heartbreak of Felicity and the kids spending 20 years without him in their lives. But I can’t help but be sad that Felicity won’t be there to say goodbye to Oliver during Crisis.
(I am absolutely holding out hope for a miracle that the last-minute additions to parts 4 and 5 that Guggenheim is talking about will include extra scenes with Felicity, but I know that is highly unlikely.)
I always imagined the scene like this:
[A bright flash of light appears, and Felicity is brought to Oliver’s side with baby Mia in her arms. She sees Oliver in pain, obviously with a fatal injury. She runs to him. Oliver’s eyes widen when he sees them. Barry takes the baby from her arms.]
Oliver: Felicity...[tears in his eyes]
Felicity: I’m here, Oliver. We’re here. Don’t worry. Everything’s going to be fine. [starts crying] We’re going to save you.
Oliver: Oh, baby...[starts smiling through his tears]...don’t you know? You already saved me...
Felicity: [looks confused]...
Oliver: After everything that happened...everything I did...when you showed me that I still deserved love...your love...you saved me. And when you let me love you...every day I loved you, you saved me.
Felicity: I love you so much, Oliver. William, Mia and I love you so much.
Oliver: I love all of you more than anything. [crying, losing breath] Thank you for being my family. Thank you for saving me. I love you and I’m so sorry I had to leave you.
Felicity: No. No regrets. [weeping] You saved all of us. I will love you always...
Oliver: [losing breath, tears, losing the light in his eyes]...Felicity...
[Oliver dies. Felicity weeps. Camera zooms out. Everyone in the room is frozen in grief. Baby Mia starts crying. Fade out.]
