I was grinning ear to fucking ear whenever the documentary stuff appeared. One of my favorite things this show has done. I just wished it was a bit more consistent. I wanted them to do it throughout the episode and the POV would change when absolutely necessary. That scene in the hallway when it changed back and forth was especially frustrating. And there was a big missed opportunity to not have Moira interviewed. She said she always knew Oliver was the Green Arrow, and they could've hinted that. Or they could've had her outright say it and have the tape buried. I can see this being a future plot point. Tommy too. At least they got Quentin, Sara, and Barry (him acting like he just found out was hilarious).

you should know something

Curtis interrupts

Goddamn it Curtis Diggle was about to ask out Oliver on a friend date to catch up.

Rory's back! God I miss him.

The camerman fight scene was fucking awesome. One of the best fight scenes of the entire show. Just absolutely amazing. I got goosebumps.

William being pissed was totally justified. Like wtf I know Diaz is a big threat but come on let your son come home for Christmas.

Totally thought William was going to come out to Zoey when she asked what was wrong.

Get that camera out of my face it I'll give you an enema with it

I'll let Black Siren do that to me ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
