Fat Spanish Waiter Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 You even gave me the specific line he mentions his name in and I can't remember. Even though I remember Matt Schulze's names in each movie (Crease, Chupa). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigertooth Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Yeah because no politician has ever been unfaithful to their spouse before. Â Is it possible to come back from that, especially an affair 20 years ago? Â Yes. Â But it's a negative. Â And I suspect it would be tougher for a woman to overcome than a man. Â I mean, she cheated on her first husband, who then died. Â Then she married the guy who took over the dead husband's company, which could easily be seen as gold-digging. Â Then husband #2 gets kidnapped, making her acting CEO of the company (AFAIK, the only thing on her resume), then when hubby #2 is returned, he promptly files for divorce. Â Then she's shown to have been involved in a plot that killed hundreds of city residents, but gets off in controversial OJ-like fashion. Â She holds a get-out-of-jail party that only a few people attend (far fewer than her previous parties). Â Obviously the only thing to do at that point is run for elected office. Â Really, all they needed to do was tweak a few little things. Â Like the party -- they should have had her expecting nobody to show up, but it turns out a ton of people are there. Â The Not Guilty verdict swung people's opinions in her favor -- she's a tough mama grizzly who made the hard choices to protect her family. Â Then it would be semi-logical that the business community would rally behind her as a candidate with a newfound wellspring of support. Â Oh well. Â Some questions about the affair: how did the DA's office know about it? Â They seemed to have positive proof, but they didn't indicate that the proof had anything to do with Thea's parentage. Â And Laurel has never acted like she knows that part of the story. Â Also, how do we know that Merlyn is Thea's bio-dad? Â I believe the only evidence is the DNA test that Merlyn did, which he could easily be lying about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Finish Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I'm amused that, in this discussion, a 20 year-old affair is more of an impediment to running for public office that being involved with a secret criminal organization that, in the past year, attempted to ruin the city and rebuild it to suit themselves.  I'm willing to overlook all of these logic gaps in her candidacy on the grounds that I like Susanna Thompson as an actress and she looks great for 56. Clearly, I am the sort of shallow, ill-informed voter Starling City needs more of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Finish Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Yep.  IIRC, the plan was to blow up the city, get rid of the undesirables (poor, esp) and remake the city for the one percenterrs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEN! Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Walter being so willing to cover up Thea's paternity with the payoff is the most interesting development to me. Makes him not seem as innocent as previously portrayed. Shenanigans all around.

Raziel Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 I'm actually amazed Ollie and/or Thea and/or Laurel didn't figure out the Merlyn is Thea's father thing, since it took Felicity all of 5 minutes to figure it out. Â Â "I had an affair with Merlyn 20 years ago" Â "Wait a second, I'm 20 years old!" Â Moria's whole Mayoral run screams Slade setup, since he's dead set on completely destroying Ollie in every way possible, and tearing his family apart is a pretty good start. Â He's made it clear he's not impressed with Blood, outside of finally figuring out how to replicate Miriculu. Â Also doesn't seem like Blood's really *that* upset/scared that Moria is running and that he could possible lose and piss off Slade. Â I wouldn't be suprised is Moria's image is totally destroyed right before the election. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Finish Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I honestly believe that Moira is the absolute worst part of the show with Laurel a close second.  The biggest problem with Moira is that she's an adult character on a WB show. Played by an actress in her mid-50's, no less. Which means the network has little use for her and will likely instruct the showrunner to ignore her character in favor of younger characters.  The "Moira runs for mayor" plotline is pretty dire, though. Almost as ridiculous as an underage 19 year-old running a bar (I know Ollie owns the bar, but the only way a 19 year old acts as manager is if Starling City either doesn't have an alcohol and beverage commission, or if they're too lazy to ever vitist Ollie's bar).

JRGoldman Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 To be fair, if Moira's platform was "I'm going to destroy all the poor people and also I'm a billionaire" instead of that being an event in the past, she would probably be a viable conservative candidate. I kid, I kid. Please don't take this as me starting a political discussion. Also, is it just me or does the actress who plays Laurel look....Unhealthy this season? Either some bad plastic surgery or a lot of weight loss or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted February 15, 2014 Author Share Posted February 15, 2014 Might be intentional. Â Laurel the character is supposed to be a strung out drug/alcohol abuser about to crash into rock bottom this arc. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nate Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 That reminded me of the scene on the pilot of the "Flash" TV show, you know the one. Iris: "Well, that was over quick." Barry: "... yeah." (sigh) ... and they were watching a boxing match! Of course, this was post-origin event of Flash's powers, and I knew at the time that, if "that" had really been "over quick," Iris would have been less dejected, more suffering from friction-baked labia.
