TV commentary:

Legends of Tomorrow- Heh, I saw what you did there! I had a feeling at some point Stein was going to taunt Vostok of how the Soviets lost. Of course, telling past people their side loses isn't wise when you're at a tipping point where they have the ability to change that. But I digress, he tells her how Russia has been taken over by corrupt criminals, and while America isn't perfect, people are free to criticize their leaders and love who they want (well, in theory). Which is a nice condemnation of Putin and his anti-gay agenda.

But again, what the hell? As I've said before, the first ep, they make a big deal how they have to be careful about what they do, because they could gravely affect the time line. But they've been killing bad guys left and right. Which I'm willing to excuse, maybe they coincidentally just killed a bunch of people unimportant in the scheme of things. But now they freaking nuked a Russian prison?! (I mean, they didn't personally, but events were set into motion that caused that) Are you telling me a nuclear explosion on Russian soil wouldn't create waves in the timeline?

Anyways, these guys never get a break! The team finally comes together and celebrates the victory and teamwork, and freaking Kronos attacks. They crash land in 2046 Star City (complete with Smoak replacing the Palmertech logo on the former Palmertech/Queen Co building) where they're confronted by a guy in a green hood with a bow. They think its Ollie, and Sara and Ray try to talk to him, but its some black kid. Interesting, who's this kid supposed to be?

It's gotta be Connor Hawke, since the show won't let Oliver have a real non-white kid.
