In his dream he saw Sara say "What are you doing here?" which we know she actually said right before dying, but Roy would have no way of knowing that if he wasn't there or otherwise connected in some deeper way. My new theory is that Roy is telepathically connected to the real killer, maybe another Mirakuru victim, a la Angel: http://www.douxreviews.com/2002/06/angel-somnambulist.html.<br /><br />I was disappointed in Diggle for telling Oliver to cut Roy loose. What good would that do? If Roy didn't intentionally kill her and they cut him loose, he's likely to continue killing. If they keep him on the team they can keep an eye on him while they try to figure out what's going on.<br /><br />Yay Mary Winchester... I mean Amy Gumenick! I actually did notice her in the background scenes. I didn't know who she was, but she stood out from the other extras. <br /><br />I loved the boxing glove arrow, just like in The Justice League cartoon. =)<br />Mariannahttp://www.mariannahorn.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-4112346482895421152014-11-16T03:36:42.972-05:002014-11-16T03:36:42.972-05:00This was the first episode that I noticed a littl...This was the first episode that I noticed a little flap on the side of Arrow's hood - a nod to the original Robin Hood costume of the comic Green Arrow. I wonder if they will eventually put a red feather in that flap.Puckladynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-25145468921180745372014-11-15T23:38:53.892-05:002014-11-15T23:38:53.892-05:00Good points.

It was like Oliver's reaction to Ted, it didn't quite fit the character. Maybe the writer of this episode was new or something. Or the director forced things to be more adversarial than needed. Or both.Samantha M.

I understand being shocked at first but I think Diggle especially was way too hard on him. If he had killed Sara, he would've done so under the effects of a drug he was forcibly injected with. I don't know how anyone can blame him for that?sunbunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08553429350476841139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-43272376776173722512014-11-15T12:46:05.386-05:002014-11-15T12:46:05.386-05:00Boxing glove arrow!
