Fans were treated to a double dose of Felicity on Arrow Season 4 Episode 11.
While our paralyzed heroine tried to put on a brave face at home for Oliver (even pushing for the nickname "Hot Wheels"), she struggled with her role on Team Arrow wondering what she brings to the team now that she's stuck in a wheelchair.
This prompted a visit from her younger, very Goth self, someone who invited herself to Felicity's "pity party."
Felicity 1.0 wasn't happy with her future self, saying she "wasted" her confidence and strength in order to "play superhero."
OUCH.
But Felicity didn't have a lot of time to sort through her internal problems… because she was needed at work. She had to offer her typical cyber assistance while Oliver, Diggle and company stormed a port being used by an A.R.G.U.S.-hating Shadowspire organization.
Haunted by her hallucination, though, Felicity was not up to the task and her mistake briefly got Diggle captured.
Later on, at the loft, Felicity told her fiancé how she felt guilty about this screw up. But Oliver wasn't hearing it.
He tried to comfort his confused partner, only for Goth Felicity to get inside Real Felicity's head, prompting her to say she can no longer be on the team and basically ordering Oliver to leave.
After sparring inside her head with her former self - and after hearing Goth Felicity taunt her about ex-boyfriend Cooper and how she now has a "ringside seat" to the rest of her life - Felicity grew inspired.
She wasn't going down like this!
So Felicity wheeled herself into the lair and gave Oliver a speech about how her younger self was filled with anger, too much anger to help anyone.
Her condition isn't Oliver's fault or her fault or anyone's fault but one evil main who has an "alliterative name" and who they are "going to stop." Why?
"Because it's what we do, it's who we are."
Yeah! You tell 'em, Felicity!
At the conclusion of the hour, Felicity burned a photo of that "rebellious brunette hacker who didn't listen anyone's rules but her own."
Oliver proceeded to share his own hope for the future, telling the love of his life quite simply:
"I've seen people speed and shrink and fly, come back from dead…. That is the world we live in now. So I will not stop searching it until we find away to make you walk again."
Go watch Arrow online to get caught up if need be and join us in giving a standing (no pun intended) ovation to Olicity.
