Explanation: Something bothered me about the kidnapping of William by Malcolm Merlyn this Arrow season.
In one episode, we see the boy arrive at the new house, not frightened at all, and just goes playing with the girl. Apparently he was told Darhk is a friend of his mother.
But in the next episode his mother says she was downstairs making dinner, and William was up in his room, and when she called him he had just vanished. So how did Malcolm do that, with a missing hand even? Something doesn’t add up. So I wanted to poke a bit of fun at it ;)
I mean, it would have been so much easier to get William on his way to school, with no mother around! (although, now that I think about it, in America children probably don’t walk to school but get driven by their parents to the front door)
PS: Note the tiny Arrow and Flash figures in the foreground!
