Dig straight up murders people and gives no fucks.

To be fair, horrible terrorist group trying to destroy the city. I suspect he just has no fucks to give about NOT killing them given they seem quite happy to kill themselves and everyone else. Quite a bit different from some street thug snatching a purse.

Felicity seems too obvious. I'm thinking Captain Lance, Lilah, or Black Driver.

I'm already guessing Lance. He's going to go down doing the right thing after the betrayal, or something equally cliche.

I'm kind of liking Action Felicity this episode. Threatens to beat the poo poo out of Diggle and Oliver, whips out an MP-5 and shoots up Not-Gambit.

Oliver telling Lance to stay in as a spy is going to get him killed. Explains him blaming himself for the grave. RIP Lance.

I really don't get why they have Felicity regressing like this. She's proven fairly strong this season, so why have her blame herself for this poo poo and angst up a storm out of nowhere?

Diggle finally gets a code name! If only temporarily. Spartan's not a bad one, as far as these things go.

Then Sara follows up on Diggle's trend of saying gently caress it and just shooting the gun toting mercs.

Give her a gun. Get angry when she kills dudes with her bare hands? Is it not open season on paramilitary Ghost soldiers, the guys who kill themselves when captured.

Pretty much. This is up there with everyone being pissed at Hunter on Agents of SHIELD after he went for Ward and Ward used Andrew as a hostage. There's no reason to show the Ghosts mercy. They're cold-blooded murdering mercs that commit suicide when caught. Might as well kill the fuckers.

This is like the ninth or tenth time Sara has left Star City to "find herself"

That's okay, this time she's going to find herself in an entirely different show. So in theory it should stick.

And oh hey Felicity and Oliver are being mature about their relationship. Yaaaay, angst avoided!

Didn't he interact with an older russian dude in one of the recent flashbacks? My guess is that guy is his in for the russian mob.

I think the director of this episode is just really trying to do some different shots. Like that shot of Laurel dropping off the building a second ago.

They definitely are going for a different, gritty aesthetic tot he fighting this episode.

THIS ELEVATOR FIGHT

Between this and Gotham my cravings for amazing and/or goofy elevator fight scenes has definitely been sated for a while.

And, uh, it looks like Darrhk just tried to steal her god damned soul and got something entirely different.

Hrmm would not have thought Malcolm to be like " Here go kill this pedophile". That for whatever reason came off weird.

I figure it was born out of him genuinely wanting to appease the bloodlust so she didn't go crazy and providing her a target so reprehensible even she wouldn't really mind it. On the other hand...

X-O posted:

I also wouldn't take anything Malcolm says at face value. It could've easily just been a League target he made some poo poo up about. I mean it probably wasn't since it was never mentioned again but I have no doubt Thea wouldn't just take his word for it.

...This means it was pretty likely she wouldn't just take him at face value and go murder some dude who's accused, but never convicted. I wouldn't be surprised if it never comes up again, but I also wouldn't be surprised if it is brought up in the future as something Malcolm tried to do as a two-birds-with-one-stone sort of thing where he gets his daughter to murder a League target AND sates her bloodlust all with one little "innocent" lie to encourage it.

While you can't entirely blame him for it, it's still kind of hosed up.
