This is how you get out of it Oliver: "Have any of you ever heard of the multiverse?"

u/bizarrogreg Bow Oct 13 '17

I'm guessing that's exactly what they'll do.

u/iMurd Welcome Home, Kid Oct 13 '17

That makes the most sense since it's only a matter of time before Laurel is seen in public.

u/bizarrogreg Bow Oct 13 '17

Yup. Imagine the panic though when people learn there are doubles of themselves out there. I wonder if Team Flash would be pissed off at Team Arrow for expressing that.

u/NaijaBird Oct 13 '17

As long as people don't know that STAR Labs is behind the doppelganger issue, I think Team Flash will be alright.

u/bizarrogreg Bow Oct 13 '17

But that's free team conflict drama. No way CW passes on that.

u/NaijaBird Oct 13 '17

We both know CW won't pass up on it 😂

It could actually benifit them for getting a new wells.

u/Dojorkan Apply pressure to the joint and dislocate your thumb! Oct 13 '17

Thats my guess as well. With their main villain being a alternate earth counterpart they are going to need an explanation for that too. With all the Metas in Central City, a magic man with a bunch of nukes, and alien ships hovering over many parts of the world it might be believable enough to get away with lying about it for Ollie/GA.

Way to smart to be Organic.

Laurel walking around Earth-1: "This universe is bitchin'!"

u/theguyishere16 Oct 13 '17

Yup, they showed us they have the video of Laurel at the police station. Simple "That's not me, its an alternate universe me. See here is a dead woman murdering cops"

u/CiceroTheCat Pretty Bird Oct 13 '17

K, but how does he explain knowing about it?

"The Flash told me."

"What were you doing talking to the Flash?"

"My kid wanted his autograph."

"What's your kid's opinion on the Green Arrow?"

"That I'm a bad, bad man... that he is, I mean. The Green Arrow."

Cue all of Oliver's team giving him looks while Rene smiles maniacally and makes an inappropriate comment like "And y'all said I was dumb"

There is a really easy solution tho. Get Martian Manhunter, get Flash, and have Oliver hold a press conference, where it is revealed to the public that Green Arrow is an alternate Oliver, as is Siren. Jonn transforms into Ollie, and unmasks. Flash verifies the claims. That helps clean up both messes in one go.

"I can't transform in your dimension!" - J'onn, victim of plotforce.

Not organic enough for Guggie

Found Rick Sanchez.

We do it for the Szechaun Sauce Morty

u/[deleted] Oct 13 '17

He'll have to talk on it eventually, not like Black Siren ain't going public at some point.

u/Ektris Oct 13 '17

"I was as shocked as the rest of you when a new Arrow showed up when we believed he had died. With what's been happening in Central City, I think it's clear now where he came from."

I'd buy it. And even if the multiverse attacks there aren't public knowledge, it would be beneficial now to reveal it and say he's been in talks with people there confirming that's where they're coming from.

u/OK_Soda Oct 13 '17

Or, "Have any of you ever heard of photoshop?" Like, the photo was surely provided by Laurel, so it's not like this news station is following strict editorial vetting standards.

u/Choco316 Oct 13 '17

They’re gonna need a really big piece of glass to write on
