[S5] What happened to the reporter?
Last time we saw Ollie with his new GF/FB Susan Williams, he seemed like he was opening up to her with a lot of info, and they did the sly camera pan to some Russian Vodka, and that's it. Two whole episodes and she's nowhere to be found.
Even more interesting since it seems obvious that Ollie is going to start banging new Dinah. Did I miss something? Or is this just the typical CW drop a plot point for 5 episodes to pick it back up later?

She's not a regular, just recurring. She's in the next one. I mean, Thea's one of the only ones left since the pilot and she wasn't in the last two either.
It just seemed like they where trying to allude to something with her character.
It's probably just the 2 month hiatus that makes it seem like she hasn't been on the show in forever.
Sure. Watching these things week to week tends to let a lot of the holes in the storytelling be more apparent.
Thats why netflix show get away with a lot imo
100%. I'm sometimes stunned by how they don't even *try * to hide like 3-5 episodes of filler episodes with episode specific stories.
Every tine someone's like "oh that's my favorite episode of that Netflix show" I'm like "you're a liar" lol
At first I was anticipating a Lady Arkham kind of twist but I don't think she's done enough for that to not just seem dumb, maybe she'll have more development over the next few episodes, they have to have some sort of arc in mind for her.
Honestly I think she's just who she says she is. She's a reporter, she's got dirt on Oliver's activities in the flashbacks and she's dating him, that honestly seems like story enough.
Also she's a girlfriend so pretty good chance she'll be killed by the villain sooner or later. Or take a job outside of Star City at the end of the season.
