Oliver’s face as Thea flat-lined! It’s as if he came untethered in that moment. Like his entire world just rearranged itself without her in it. Then how he fell back into the wall when her heartbeat finally sounded.
Why did Oliver call Felicity and John to the hospital, but not Laurel? I mean, she’s known her longer.
“The Thea you get back will not be the one you lost.”
“That we lost because of you.” - The fact that Malcom said as if Oliver was the only one who’d be losing Thea…I feel that just emphasizes the emotional distance Malcolm has toward his daughter.
There Felicity goes again, trying to talk Oliver out of saving Thea. It’s like she knows that Thea is more important to him and she’s trying to get the competition out of the way.
“Prefer it we didn’t do our usual please don’t go dance.” Translation: Oliver knows the Felicity’s playing games with him, the bitch.
Unlike Malcolm, Oliver cannot fathom losing Thea forever.
“No, I wanted to make you think you’ve grown a little as a person.” -- So now Felicity’s insulting him as he flies to save your sister and change his entire life.
Oliver carrying Thea up to the League’s headquarters by himself despite the fact that John or Malcolm could have assisted him with her.
Oliver bodily moving to protect Thea from the approaching League Members.
Thea’s ritual gown though and Oliver helping to lower her into the water. Then Thea jumping out and attacking Oliver, out of all the people within reach. Why him out of all her possible choices? Subliminal motivations, I would say.
What!?!? She remembers Malcolm is her dad but not that Oliver’s still alive?
“And she will recover!”
“And what is that worth?” -- God, Felicity is such a bitch!
I love how Felcity keeps trying to make this about her, but Oliver continues to think about Thea.
Ewww! Olicity sex scene! She totally took advantage of his grief! Seriously, who sees someone they care about so distressed and then has sex with them? Not only that, but then she fucking drugged him after and the audience is all supposed to just be like, ‘oh, that’s fine.’ Fuck no. She’s a horrible person and that’s all there is to it.
I’m honestly surprised Felicity didn’t suggest just leaving Thea behind with Ra’s the way she’s been acting.
At first, I was like: why is Thea hugging on Felicity like that? But then I realized she’s not. She was leaning on her because she had no other choice because she’s physically compromised.
Oliver “loves her all the more for it.” -- For drugging him? Hell no. Not only is that out of character for Oliver (as are most aspects when it comes to Olicity,) but it also send a terrible message to ARROW’s viewership.
Oliver and Thea's goodbye though. So touching and heartbreaking at the same time.
Love that Thea’s first substantial question is “Where’s Ollie?” He's always ger main priority.
“He traded his life for yours.” -- Like that’s going to lower her anxiety levels, Malcom. He’s a moron.
After Oliver gave up his life as he knows it, Malcolm has the balls to tell Thea that ‘at least he’s off the hook now.’ He’s also a terrible parent.
