Welcome back to another crazy episode of Scene N Nerd! This week the gang is getting into some heavy discussion about the SEASON finales of Arrow and The Flash. What happens with Team Arrow now that only Oliver and Felicity remain, where do our characters go from here? How far do Barry's actions reach across the DCTV universe? Will we be exploring a whole new "Flashpoint" world? We speculate on these things as well as the very interesting decision making of all members of Team Flash. We also talk some Game of Thrones and how emotional the last episode was. The the crew says goodbye, for now, to PacingPete as this is his last episode and things get a little weepy with Matt. Don't worry, Jay Garrick is on his way to save the team! It's crazy business as usual with a whole lot of Flarrow talk, its a brand new SCENE N NERD!
