Oh boy...that awkward moment when Diggle is going to accidentally think Connor is JJ, only to find out that his biological son is going to grow-up to be an asshole....
Oh, yeah, well the timelines immediately fucked up with Rene and Dinah learning about Mia now. Also, another awkward moment when your friends find out your wife was secretly pregnant, had a baby and you never tell them for 20 years; until said kid comes back in time as a hot adult woman and spoils the surprise.
I mean, how is William the only one thinking "time travel" between him, Mia and Conner? I get that it would seem incredibly implausible, but they're still looking Dinah and Rene who are look significantly younger; and Oliver, who's ostensibly dead in their time, is standing in front of them in his prime. Seeing as where they're from, the likes of The Flash, metahumans in general and all of the techno-bullshit we've seen the last few years would be something for their history books, let alone the tech seen in Nora's time, which isn't that far off from them; time travel shouldn't be such a mind wrinkling concept.
(Sigh) William still calling Felicity "mom" when she was married to Oliver for like, what, less than a year before he moved into to live with his grandparents; and never saw Felicity again for 21 years....
Fuck you, you and Felicity did not know he William was gay before he left.
"My husband needs help."
"Did you check in at the desk?"
"We're donors here."
Yeah, you still need to check in with the desk so we know who the fuck you are and get some idea what's wrong with you and what preexisting conditions or allergies you might have so we don't accidentally fucking kill you.
The "wife" of this patient was in on this, right? Because if she wasn't, how the fuck does she know he needs medical help without find out how he has a fucking glowing bomb just beneath his skin, under his loosely closed shirt?
It's kind of laughable for Oliver to be so proud that William is a billionaire. I mean, I can understand it to a certain degree, because his son earned it all on his own (maybe), but at the same time, Oliver was a billionaire for like 2/3rds of his life. He's presumably not even poor, in spite of the implications that he lost all his money, seeing he hasn't had a job in ages, but never worries about money.
On the flip side of all that, how big of deal will being a billionaire in 2040? I mean, it's naturally still going to be a lot of money, but I think back like 20-30 years ago and millionaires seemed like the height of wealth and you occasionally heard of someone being a billionaire, but it didn't seem all that common. Like it was Bill Gates and then a handful of other people you'd never heard of. Now everyone says they're a billionaire (and some just claim they're one, among other things)
I looked up a "future inflation prediction" calculator - actually I looked up a couple of them, before I finally figured out why they were all showing me large amounts when I plugged in a billion dollars and set the future date to 2040; and eventually realized what it was telling me was that to get the same value of a billion dollars today, you would need to have $1,860,294,571.71 in 2040 - so basically the value is nearly half; which means, yeah, William is still pretty fucking rich, and maybe he's got like, hundreds of billions (which is actually kind of obscene) but if he's only got 9 figures, he's basically the equivalent of an upper end millionaire in today's money.
Which is to say he still has more fucking money than I'll ever have, now or in 2040....
Come on Curtis, be honest, that wasn't "sugar" you put in that coffee you had on the plane, was it?
How the fuck does future Conner's phone work in 2019?
Sure, all those movies and real world accounts of bombs triggered by stepping on them, were really just relays to the actual bomb that was somewhere several feet away; and definitely not built into the device that if you took your foot off or shifted your weight the wrong way while it was still armed you were definitely dead.
Apparently Mia inherited her nerdy curse words from Felicity, but not her brains. We can't even say she inherited the blonde hair, per se, because Felicity had previously admitted to dying hers....
The scene of William telling them about the future isn't bad; Diggle and Rene's reactions make sense - but at the same time, I think would have to be hard to reconcile a lot of these things, especially something like being told your daughter was killed 20 years from now, while she's still alive and well right then and there. That has to seriously fuck with your head.
Aaaaaand we're back.... Fuck you Mia. "How about we stop mourning poor, innocent JJ and accept who he actually is?" You mean a 5 year old trying to kick his paste eating habit at 5k? Because by all indications the JJ you're talking about is quite possibly still in the future; which, all things considered, no longer existing and the only JJ in any of your immediate spheres is just a kid who probably hasn't killed anyone yet.
Seriously Dinah, did you really need to flip the chair over to determine that the flashing the device the guy who just threw on a Deathstroke mask planted, was a bomb?
Oh, Christ, are William and Curtis going to hook up?
I mean, Rene, you could stop running for office, if you wanted to.....just sayin'.
Wait, "Vote Ramirez 2019"? When? When is this 2019 election taking place in Star City, that Rene seems to have only just thrown his hat into the race for? There's less than two months left in the year; and literally yesterday, the day the episode aired, was the election day for some municipalities for local office; and he's giving this press conference at night when there's not a lot of time left at the polls, if they're even still open.....
Also, "The Future is Now" - a little on the nose, isn't it?
I'm calling it, the "Monitor" approaching Laurel is actually the Anti-Monitor. I mean, it's obvious, right?
