Marc Guggenheim has stated that Oliver and Felicity are on a certain trajectory, and it would be schizophrenic to take them off of it, but how they get there is uncertain. He did say that in the premiere episode there are no romantic kisses between any characters. Now, does that shock you? It did me, because you would think, that if someone you loved was in danger, and you had to search to find them, would you not kiss them if you did find them? Several years ago, Arizona experienced a major 100 year flood. I was separated from my husband for 4 days. He had no clue if we had been air lifted out, or if we were still in our home. He found a way to get to our house, and the first thing he did when he saw the children and I was to give us us kisses. Are you surprised? Were you hoping for a Felicity and Oliver kiss?
