I maintain my position that keeping William a secret — especially after Oliver realized that the villain Malcolm Merlyn knew about William — was one of Oliver’s dumbest decisions to date, so I don’t know that even the best-written episode in the history of television episodes could make me believe that Oliver was using his upstairs brain on this one.
As somebody who has been 100% Team Felicity from the identical moment that Oliver revealed he’d been secretly visiting his kid while she was adjusting to life in a wheelchair, I’m curious to see if the exploration of the breakup will change my mind.
