S02E08 - The Scientist
Thought I would try something new this week. Posting it this early so that everyone has a place to talk about what the think is going to happen tonight and what's happen so far this season. Any spoilers that are known for tonight's episode are fine to talk about in the open, but any spoilers for future episode please label as such.
One last note. If you find any links that you think should be added to this post please let me know
Episode Info: A seemingly impossible robbery at Queen Consolidated's Applied Sciences Division brings Central City police scientist Barry Allen to town. Citing a similar case back home, Barry offers to help Oliver and team with the investigation. Oliver senses there is more to Barry than meets the eye, but he's distracted by the similarities between this current case and something that happened on the island. Meanwhile, Felicity takes a liking to Barry, which doesn't go unnoticed by Oliver. Sin asks Roy for help when a friend of hers goes missing. Roy is surprised when Thea not only encourages him to help, but joins the search. Unfortunately, Sin's friend is connected to Brother Blood, and their search ultimately gets one of them seriously injured.Source: The CW

Is anyone else hoping that after this two part episode is done with that we will have another episode like in season one dedicated just to the island?

if we are starting to do this earlier thread business, do you think it would be better to have a pre-discussion thread or predictions thread and then the actual during/after thread discussion as usual? after the episode is over, some speculation or silliness will seem out of place.

Any one else find it odd that Ollie has been on the island for like a year and although his regular hair has grown, his facial hair has not.
