Felicity, You'll Always Be my Girl


Watch these two clips of Oliver and Felicity from the Clock King episode of Season 2 Arrow.  In the first, Oliver asks Felicity, "What are you wearing."  This is significant because in season one Felicity did a work-out with Diggle and wear similar clothes, Oliver came into the room and never said a word to her.  He didn't notice. This time he notices.  I think he knew in episode six of season 2 that Felicity was someone he could really love, but in this episode, 14, I think, he notices her. He realizes by now that he does indeed love her, but I don't think he is sure of how Felicity could feel about him.  
At the end of the episode, Felicity has gotten shot and Sara stitches her.  Oliver and Diggle have their backs turned, and then Oliver addresses Felicity by saying that Diggle had told him that she had felt a little left out.  Then watch Oliver as Felicity says, "I was used to being your girl."  Oliver has such a hopeful look, almost as if he's holding her breath over what she might be telling him.  I think Oliver hoped Felicity would say that she loved him.  Let me know what you think.   As we wait to see what happens in Missing, I think it is fun to see the depth of love these two have for each other. It has slowly happened.  It wasn't the fans who made this happen, it is the fine acting of these two people that made it happen.  It's going to be know in the history of television as one of the greatest love stories of all time.

Arrow 512 The Bratva Review

Image
Many good, positive things happened in this episode and some not so good.  Let's begin: Diggle:  Diggle's darkness began last season when he killed his brother.  The guilt of that led Diggle to a dark place where he questions his values.  Diggle beats a man to get he information he wants a bout the nuke that Walker wants to fire.  Oliver had seen the man first, but refrained from beating him. He wanted to give the man time to think,but Diggle cannot wait.  As Diggle is doing this, Rory questions Felicity on what she has done, when Oliver comes in to talk.  Rory told Felicity that when his father had given him the rags he said to "respect and guard the power and don't abuse it, clearly he thinks Felicity is abusing the power she has with the computer.  Oliver interrupts then and Rory says,"I think she's crossed the line."  Oliver gives Felicity a look of concern but runs to Diggle because of what's happened. Diggle has beaten the informant,...

Arrow 514 The Sin Eater Review

Image
  The Sin Eater brings back three formidable female foes: China White, Carrie Cutter, and Liza Warner.  All three of these foes appeared in seasons one and two of Arrow. This whole season has referred back to the first two seasons.  I had forgotten about Liza Warner, until the brief flashback reminded me of who she was. The theme for last night's episode addresed the question,  Can you take on the responsibility of someone else's sins? Antaoly ,  in the Russia flashback, tells Oliver that he is a sin eater by wanting to take on other's sin. This is something Oliver has done for all 5 episodes, isn't it?  Wasn't he trying to make up for his father's sins by crossing off names on a list?  Oliver helped Anatoly in the hospital.  I am guessing that in the next episode we shall find that Oliver killed Gregor before Gregor could kill Anatoly. Quintin Lance feels guilt over Liza Warner, because Liza heard in prison that Lance worked with Damien Dah...

Inmate #4587 Arrow Review 701

Image
      Season 7 heads the viewers  into  new, fascinating directions. . Wow! is the word that came into mind.  It has a  whole  new  feel to the show.  Let's  say, it's  not the Arrow  we used  to know.  The new showrunner has  given us a new Arrow that could not only last  another  season, but could be carried on into the future with new yet familiar characters. It did, however, leave this reviewer with  many questions. Arrow has  always begun it's new season with Oliver running through the woods, but this time we see William running  in the green hoodie, with Felicity not far behind.  We  find this to be Oliver's nightmare, as we  see  Diaz shoot Felicity.  I also think that this might be a foreshadowing  of the  part William plays  in future events.          Flash Forward:  Instead of  flashback...
