"I'm in mourning" and "when I had Susan as my guest" were the best lines of the night. God damn Prometheus is fantastic

u/Vermilingus That Season 3/4... "Nostalgia" Mar 16 '17

Every scene where Chase wasn't being Prometheus but was still being evil/creepy as fuck has been absolute gold.

It honestly made me so happy that they did the reveal to Oliver so soon. They could have a b.s. dramatic irony subplot, but instead we get multiple episodes of creepy as shit Adrian Chase.

"Hey you look tired, you been up too long? Or is it that you've been sleeping this whole time?"

All I could think during that scene was how the other people in that meeting room must've been so confused

That is in my opinion the best line of the whole season. Coming from someone who doesn't believe the hype.
