LOL, oh Laurel, holding that tonfa by the wrong end. Keep training girl. You'll get there.
Arrow - Season 3

Nothing has ever impressed me about the prospect of Laurel taking up Sara's role (or theoretically becoming Black Canary before we knew Sara was alive). It's not Katie Cassidy, or at least not entirely since i bought her as a convincing badass in Supernatural, but even when the writing is good she's she's still the least interesting character (regular or recurring) on the show, and behind somebody who's dead.
Training with Ted Grant has me interested, but I think that's because it's Ted Grant; and the costume's nice too. But at this point I don't know if I'll ever embrace her.
Meanwhile Felicity continues to be awesome, and it'll be interesting to see where Roy's 'dreams' are coming from cause there's clearly a red herring in play.

Laurel needs a permanent room at the hospital at this rate.
She also needs to sue the company that built her car for the failed airbags.
Anybody think it was funny that Felicity automatically assumed something was wrong when Laurel called? No attempt at a "hello" or anything, just sees "Laurel" and goes straight to "tracking her phone!".

Looked like an older model Audi.
Not really.
Think they were suprised at the point in time when she called and Ollie told Felicity to put it on speaker. Plus they are heard the voices before getting a change to respond.
That was quite a turn at the end. Next week should be pretty entertaining.
I liked the Roy story a lot but everyone acted out of character this week. Diggle talking about abandoning Roy for one. Though the most disgusting bit of hypocrisy is Oliver making a big fuss about Ted killing one criminal. Oliver was a mass murderer of criminals in Season 1, sometimes killing them for flimsy reasons. He lost the right to judge any vigilante who takes a criminals life. Someone who is breaking the law by being a vigilante also doesn't have the right tell someone else not to be one.
Not that he's not right about Laurel...TPTB are going to fail miserably trying to shove Laurel as the Canary down everyone's throat.

I'm tired of the "Stay away from [?]" trope.
Looks like they might embrace fan sentiment by showing her struggle a lot and fail.
It was okay. I figured Roy couldn't have killed Sara. There had to have been an explanation to his nightmares.
The Ted Grant angle was underwhelming. So now what. He goes back to being a boxing coach.

^ He'll go back to training Laurel against Ollie's wishes, therby creating tension, and then somewhere down the line he'll don the Wildcat outfit and fight once again.
That was awesome.
This was a prety good episode, but the parts in the past aren't great. The wife's hatred of Oliver is ridiculous. He's more of a victim then the family is. All he "did" was get taken from an alien and made to work for Waller. The husband probably did something more actively to be working for her.
Also, this whole past story makes it seem very unlikely that he'd ever work with Waller like he did near the end of Season 2. She seems like one of the few remaining people he'd abandon his "no killing" thing to do. The past segments really haven't been good since season one, but this season's ones are just bland and irritating, its really the only problem I have with an otherwise solid show.
Yea, it would be like an Elvis sighting.
It's like that line from an earlier episode "Are we favor friends? Are we friends?"
Oh my god yes. This week it was Oliver's turn to be the obnoxious prick.
I like Ted, and the idea of him taking on Laurel as a "sidekick." I also liked the reveal that he was Wildcat in the past; one of my minor gripes has been that Grant oughta be more of an "old guard" sorta figure and this - if slightly - brings him more in that direction.
Good revelation about Roy too; I didn't see that coming up but it's something that he'll have to deal with now.
This was a good EP for Roy. He has been flailing in the breeze.
I agree that this was a good episode for Roy. I want to see him actually have fun for once, he reminds me of Damien Wayne a little with his brooding seriousness. In fact, I think that this might only be the start of his pathos--something tells me that he will not be Arsenal for very long and Thea will be the sidekick next season.
I also like the Ted Grant setup and his role as Black Canary's trainer.

Ted can't teach her every thing she needs.
She is going to need more more teachers as time goes by.
