... Of The Season

Speaking of The Quiver, Thea was finally brought into the fold, but more on that revelation in a moment. First, I want to talk about the flashbacks and how the past might possibly factor into the present. After going rogue in trying to recover both the alpha and Tatsu Maseo and Oliver find themselves back under A.R.G.U.S. Agent Amanda Waller 's thumb, as the Mockingbird 's hunt for China White had led them back to Starling City . And Thea's life being threatened. A popular plot device these days. How amazing was it when Oliver revealed to Speedy that he's the Green Arrow ? It was also a relief that she didn't get mad at the secret, since we've seen that a million times before.She was pretty quick to turn on Malcolm , but she's at least smart enough to recognize that they need his help. I mean, if it wasn't for his training in Corto Maltese , she never would have suspected the Douchey DJ of dropping cyanide in the red wine. Inconceivable! I can't believe Ra's al Ghul allows guys like that in the League of Assassins . Makes me kind of lose a little respect for the Demon's Head. Anyway, with news of Oliver's survival having reached Nanda Parbat , the Arrow (and Magician) decide to take Thea to Lian Yu for a few days. Hm. Isn't that where Slade is sitting in a Super-Max prison? I wonder if we'll see him next week. Arrow continues with Episode 14, “The Return,” on Wednesday, February 18 at 8:00 p.m. ET on The CW.
