My thoughts on Arrow 4x08  (Legends of Yesterday)

In which, the Time-travel cheat code is re-used, I have a new Brotp, and I’m so not okay with forced Olicity drama (seriously, they’re happy, leave them alone)

SPOILERS everywhere.

I see what you did there Thea. Farmhouse indeed.

Felicity’s “something’s wrong with Oliver” senses are uncanny.

Sneaky Oliver, running his own DNA test.

You know, Damian Darhk probably knows Savage. It’s a shame you don’t have someone on the inside to ask him.

Barry’s like ‘hehe that was a good one’ laughing at his own jokes.

why is rage always the only way of unlocking power? It's a pretty risky emotion to be gambling on.

‘well it’s going to take a while to play since we live in a digital world now’ *gets it playing instantly*

‘I wanna see it’ ‘no’ ‘show me’ ‘okay’

Hang on. Mother just said she didn’t want Oliver to have anything to do with him and now she’s all like ‘Keep it a secret if you want any kind of relationship with him’ SO WHAT, IS THAT A YES OR NO?

Ugh Felicity’s jumping to conclusions and throwing out the ‘If you loved me’ spiel. Like, I love her. But sometimes she can be a bit much. It’s an intensely personal thing Oliver’s going through that he only just found out about. Surely she can recognize he’d need time to come to terms with it.

Oh.

Oh.

I mean, I know we’re only halfway into the episode but still. Wasn’t expecting them to get stabbed.

awwwwwwwwwwwwwww Barry just called him Ollie. Might just be my Brotp

ahh. The time travel thing, It’s always so convenient.

Ugh. Just ret-con Felicity’s dumb ‘it’s over’ speech. Time travel is such a cheat way out.

I’m gonna guess that Stephen Amell is the most likely to ruin takes by breaking character and laughing. You can always see him almost failing to keep his serious face on after any character’s sassy quips.

To be fair, pretty much everyone is trying not to laugh at Cisco’s one-liners)

awwwwwwwww Cisco’s so in love with her.

Before this scene, the cast totally had a bet on who could say their lines the fastest.

And we’ve come full circle.

POSTER SHOT

How can Laurel be experiencing Deja vu if she wasn’t even there the first time? huh?

It’s not fair! Cisco never gets the girl :(

“So if you ever want us to team up with you guys on LOT, just let me know”

Brotp hug!!!! (okay, so maybe I am Squee-ing)

(Seriously though, I’m grinning like an idiot)

So, like, a random guy just walks into a kid’s room and the kid is just like ‘yeah, hi whatevs) *goes back to playing*

.....this isn’t a common occurrence, is it?

I’m kind of annoyed that he didn’t tell Felicity about his kid. Not coz I think it’s necessarily wrong, but because I’m sure it’s gonna cause drama in the future (as we’ve already seen evidence of) and Felicity is pretty close-minded about the secret thing, even if there’s a decent reason for keeping it.

uh-oh. Panning to dead-guys ashes is never a good scene.

MALCOLM, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

UGH, I HATE THAT GUY.

One minute he’s all like ‘DON’T RISK MY DAUGHTER’S SAFETY FOR HIM’ and then he’s resurrecting him like he’s not gonna get revenge on Team Flarrow for killing him. Moron.
