Tune in with Turner

             This episode  finally puts Robert Queen to rest.  For the past 6 1/2 seasons Oliver has dealt with the  legacy  that Robert Queen  left him. At first Oliver wanted to right his father's wrongs by crossing names  of a  list that Robert kept.  Later Oliver learned from both John Diggle  and Felicity Smoak that there could  be a different way,  and Felicity helped him into the light by showing  him he was a different man from Robert Queen.  In this episode  Oliver  publicly faces the truth about what Robert did in the boat to Dave Hackett.  From here on out Oliver can focus  on what it kind of legacy he will leave for his children.  He can  focus on what kind of  man he wants to be.             Oliver and  Felicity:   Oliver and  Felicity are in a good  place. What I liked so far about th...

           I enjoyed this episode because it was a thoughtful episode about what our parents leave us.  At least that is how I took it.  Encased in concrete in the body of man Robert Queen accidently killed.  His mistake was  in covering it up, because Malcom Merlyn used that to cause Robert to participate in the Undertaking.  It also lead to his charge to Oliver to right is wrongs. This one mistake lead to Oliver making his journey to becoming the Green Arrow.  No child can right any wrongs of a parent.  Our sins are our own. They aren't our children's.  Robert Queen should have understood that.  I think Robert wanted his son to be a better kind of man than he was. Every parent knows the strengths and weaknesses of their children.  Sometimes the things we see in our children that we don't like, are the very things that are weaknesses in ourselves.  Long ago in college I wrote a poem that about that, an...

  Rumors running rampant say that Laurel Lance is seen with an engagement ring and there's a wedding  in  the Queen Mansion.  Okay, Olicity Folks, don't get excited, the earth is not imploding, all will be well.  Why am I not int a tither over this?  First, and foremost, Marc Guggenheim has stated that Olicity is not over and will rebuild.  If you have to,  keep telling this to yourself until you believe it.  Why the engagement ring? You ask.  It could be an Earth 2 story line.  In earth 2 Robert Queen is the Green Arrow, and Oliver is the one that dies.  So that could be it. I honestly don't think it is for real. Laurel Lance died, and she will not be resurrected.  First, how long has it been since we've been inside the Queen Mansion?  Thea doesn't live there.  I don't think Oliver does.  Rumor also has it that it could be an It's a Wonderful Life story line, and Oliver realizes that the path he ende...
