William: Speaking of kids...I'm not happy with the way we're being represented.

Oliver: Hey, why's that? We show you following our footsteps and finding your own destiny.

William: With a different actor! At least David Mazouz still gets to play Batman!

Oliver: Jokes on you son, they're only doing that for David, not for Carmen as Catwoman.

William: Fine, that doesn't matter. The fact is that Gotham over there didn't do flashforwards or anything, they stuck to the progression thing, and only made use of clever foreshadowing. Here, we're just showing that we grow up and follow your footsteps despite the fact that our character arcs as CHILDREN aren't even being finished! Moreover by showing us take on your mantles, like how we now know Zoe's gonna be the new Black Canary, it lowers the anticipation we have to see Zoe grow and develop. And then we see how Zoe badly acts in the present, and it doesn't even look like it can connect!

Zoe: My acting is not BAD! Now let's do some more homework together!

William: YOU ARE FIFTEEN. FIFTEEN-YEAR-OLD GIRLS DON'T TALK LIKE THAT. KINDERGARTENERS TALK LIKE THAT!

Ruby: Mom, save me from this kid's comments!

William: Oh don't even get me started on you...
