    The writers love having these fake deaths during the midseason finales.

    I'm going with faking Felicity's death to try and fool Dark. I don't buy her dying for one second.

    It's gotta be the baby mama. The shot of Dark at the end with his wife and kid is foreshadowing him going after the kid and baby mamma. And of course just as Oliver and Smoke get engaged, they have to be thrown a curveball of both of them all of a sudden becoming parents. Balancing being a hero and parent.

    I want Oliver to capture Dark's wife and kid.

    A pissed off Oliver would be great. We haven't seen that side of him for a while.

    Just going through Netflix and stumbled upon arrow. Oliver is going to need to get that hair and beard going here pretty soon in his flashbacks.

    Arrow shoots probably 4 weeks ahead or 5 before initial airing of the first episode of each season

    This show isn't too bad but the problem is that there are too many internal and external conflicts with each character. It's exhausting and takes away from what was good about the show

    It's the 4th season and once this thing hits 5 seasons we will see some main folks die or disappear like Cole did.

    I also think Arrow is the foundation of al of the DC universe and becomes the central point for all of the shows and will seem overwhelming which will hurt it in the end.

    'Titans' was turned down by TNT. I'm hoping that means we see Dick Grayson on Arrow. I don't even care how much homage that's playing to Batman, because he's fucking awesome.

    It won't happen, but this is the most personally satisfying guess for the character in the grave I've seen:

    Laurel is killed. Her and Nyssa were tight, and, with Merlyn running the show as Ra's, Nyssa joins Team Arrow full time.

    You mean her appearance on Legends of Tomorrow? Where she revealed to her sister, who possesses an unquenchable desire to kill, she had a new suit made for her and encouraged her to join a new team who 1. have no idea about her condition and 2. there are zero other members she has an emotional connection with to keep her grounded?

    I mean, the only consequences when she went out with Team Arrow were some murdering. nbd. I'm sure changing her costume colors from black to white will fix everything.

    Sadly, that's a genius-level move compared to "Who is that? Is that Daddy?"

    Was talking about leading the police to the place where Oliver was trying to interrogate a person who clearly had info on Damian Dark. Because arresting this guy immediately is clearly a higher priority than hunting down a telepathic mastermind hellbent on destroying the city and killing them all.

    Oh.

    Well, shockingly, she MAY piss you off if you check out Legends of Tomorrow.

    She's only in it for like five minutes, but, let's be honest, that's more than enough time for Laurel to be the worst.

    Like the end of that episode. Both women saying the other guy needs to die. I think this season ends up being better than expected. Once it all plays out

    Shows like this with 22 episodes...you have to weed out the filler episodes though they have some main plot point info here and there

    I think how angry Felicity is in the limo is pretty telling. Going to take the death of someone really close to her for her to want Ollie to kill.

    Makes my guess Mama Smoak, which would be disappointing. Maybe Mama Smoak AND Quentin?

    Yeah has to be Dig since even Felicity wants Ollie to kill again. After making Dig be a dickhead to Oliver to start the season he's had Ollie back in every decision he's made since because as they like to point out Oliver is his brother. Thinking back to the scene after Dig and Ollie finally were good again and the three of them were out and Felicity mention how cool it was to be out as OTA :tebow:. His death is the only one that could elicit that type of anger from both of them.

    I guess it could be Diggle. I just think Ollie would be raging a lot harder than Felicity if that were the case. Plus, shows tend to shy away from killing off characters who have young children.

    Barry's actions in the season premiere are also pretty telling, IMO. He apologized for not being at the funeral, which, to me, immediately ruled out Felicity. Zero percent chance Barry wouldn't have been there if Felicity died. Obviously he is closest to Felicity, but I don't think Barry would have offered such a token apology for not being present at the funeral of any members of OG Team Arrow.

    Maybe Red Arrow? I just hope it has more gravity to the viewers than a tangential character like Mama Smoak.

    I mean we're looking at post funeral. Ollie would fly off the handle right when Diggle dies but he's not about to make a huge scene at the funeral

    That's where I've been leaning this season since they've focused so much on her "blood lust" and how its put her on precarious situations.

    Barry doesn't know her at all (they've only met the one time) so his reaction fits reasonably well. You'd think Ollie would be even more upset but like someone rise said, this is post funeral and now he's just focused.

    If it's mama smoak, felicity wouldn't just be sitting in the car. Even tho she is handicapped

    Barry's simple sorry could mean Roy. Roy doesn't seem like he is on a regular contract anymore and could be coming back for one more fight and sacrifices himself...for Thea Felicity grew to love Roy and I'm sure it's the attack on her and a death that makes her say to kill him

    It isn't Diggle because they lose diversity. That's a real thing

    Isn't mama smoak

    Unfortunately not Laurel..

    I'm going with Roy/Quentin. Plus at this point they have been hyping the funeral up that it is someone well known obviously. I'm not sold on Thea dying just yet

    For all we know, Barry might have missed the funeral because he was in Earth 2 or some shit. I'm leaning Mama Smoak (killed in the crossfire when Dahrk goes after Lance) or :pray: Laurel.

    The real question though; when can we cut it out with the fucking flashbacks?

    I prefer Laurel or Thea, but I am going with Quentin. Dark is going to find out that he has been working with Ollie and then kills him. Fits Felicity's reaction since it would hurt her mom because she is shacking up with him.
