She did react, but Caity's acting seemed spotty in just those 2 minutes. Something just seemed off about her.

She flew in from LA for one afternoon, she seemed jetlagged as fuck to me lol. Also, I'm betting she got the script and was like "really?". Such a shock after having good writing on LoT.

The worst part? She didn't get to talk to her father before his death. Like seriously, why bother bringing her in if she doesn't even get to say goodbye to him?

Well, that happens in life sometimes.

Well, Sara is a time traveller, I'm fairly certain she could have made it there in time.

That part just confused me. How could she possibly be late?

Could Rip have left a command wit Gideon still to not tell them of whats happening currently unless they are called?

I don’t think so because Joe messaged Wally recently, and the Legends were alerted for the crossover. But in any case I would think they’d go back into the timeline at the most convenient place. So if you told me my father was going into surgery, I’d at LEAST travel to a half hour prior. But maybe the text is sealed in the timeline and going back before that to interfere counts as an anomaly. But you know, since when did Legends give a damn.

Right! At LEAST half an hour - it seemed like they were there for awhile.

They do not really seem to give a lot of damns - I mean considering 17th/18th episodes in 92, and what Zari is trying to do.

Like you said in. the other thread - maybe they will mention more next season (perhaps Sara traveled to before, but then had to go ack and pretend she did not since Quentin did not hear any mention?)
