First episode i think it was bad writing the whole shoot out in the court room entrance was ridiculous. Guns blazing everywhere and Ollie safely (standing up) led laurel out. Ran and jumo in the middle of the gun fight saves thr other guy.
I might have missed it but did they just threw that guy lawyer being part of set up last minute at the end.

How does Laurel not know that it's Sarah?! She doesn't have the voice converter at the end! And LOL @ Huntress going to a jail, she killed like 10 cops last season and that should be teleport right first in line to death row.
You know what makes me extra mad tho is that Felicity on-screen time is so short now

No better than the police officer fight right after that. Guy shoots at him, Arrow stands up and jumps like 1 foot off the ground, straight on at the guy. Dodging is for lesser men.

Not like this is abnormal. Everyone in Batman gets thrown in Arkham Asylum instead of getting offed like they should

- Extended promo for next week's episode (please spoiler tag any discussion)
Jessica De Gouw's acting and accent definitely improved. I was actually blown away by the complete lack of cringing. I hope we don't have to wait too long to bring her back.
Good episode overall. Wasn't a big fan of the "once you let the darkness in it doesn't come out" material latching onto Laurel, but I'll wait to see how that plays out.
Laurel not recognizing Sara was pretty funny. Looked straight at her sister for several minutes with not more than a foot and half between them. But that mask.

So are the lances just officially mentally disabled at this point?
The phone rang right in front of you ffs!!!
Laurel not noticing Sara in front of her was pretty silly too, but uhh come on Detective. Or is it complete willful ignorance?
When Oliver finally reveals who he is to the cop I hope the reaction is sarcastic

I love Pokken!
This stood out to me during the last scene. I didn't think she was terrible last time but this is still a dramatic improvement.

De Gouw improved! I knew you wouldn't let me down, girl!
Laurel didn't suck! I knew you had it in you, writers and Katie!
Oliver finally admitted to being a hypocritical tool to Helena! Yeah!
Roy and Thea was surprisingly emotional!
Felicity and Digg sidelined, boo!
Lol at the SWAT dick coming to take down three masked crazy people freaks on his own!
Come on, Quentin knows Ollie is the Arrow! Come on!
Motherfucking Slade is just legit crazy.
GET SLADE OR GET SLAYED MOTHERFUCKERS YEAH.
Loved this moment.
Phenomenal.

Huntress keeps improving with each appearance. Liked how she still got her ass kicked when Sara went serious though. Her S3 episode could be awesome.
Also..some really great lines this week. The darkness one, Roy saying he can't walk past a bowl of water without slapping it etc.
Plus damn..Slade, you're such a dick by tattoing Oliver like this.
Lots of good developments too - Laurel getting her job back, which I hope will stop her from being useless, and Oliver finally admiting to how much of a hypocrite he was with Helena in S1.
And last thing: yeah..Lances are mentally challenged to not figure out the secret identities.
PS. Since #TeamShado is no longer an option can I be #TeamHuntress?

Superb.
It's such a tragedy that both Shado + the Huntress will get little to no screen time from here on out (one in flashbacks, the other probably relegated to 1 episode a season). Two best love interests for Ollie by far and much more interesting than Sarah/Laurel IMO. De Gouw and Amell had more chemistry in that last scene than all his interactions with Lotz/Cassidy thus far.

I enjoyed the episode for the most part but I'm still not a big fan of Helena. Especially at the end where we get her realisation that nothing changed when her father died. We know she is supposed to become a hero down the line but we need something now to show that its even possible.
For me all that was needed was during that conversation between Helena and Laurel when she found out that Tommy had died, a simple "I'm sorry to hear that" would have done so much to show that this really was just all about her father and a means to an end rather than the psychopath she comes across as.

I get the feeling Detective Lance knows Oliver is the Arrow and is just waiting gor Oliver to tell him.
at this point or he is the worst police/detective ever or he's just trolling Oliver

Gail Street and Simone was a reference to Gail Simone, a one to writer of the Birds of Prey comic.
I laughed when Thea was all "No." and Roy just backed off like "Yeah okay."
Hopefully without Radioactive playing in the background. Hate that song.
LMAO!

Are you kidding? Until Oliver told her off we never saw her without a drink in her hand or popping some pills on the side. She was constantly drinking that night. She was slurring her words or not able to walk but she had a problem.
Surprised anyone would say Laurel wasn't being portrayed as an alcoholic this season.
Speaking of which she actually came off as likeable and sensible this episode. The Lance's though seem to have a medical condition with their inability to recognize people.
Though Chesthair already thought Ollie was the vigilante in Season 1 so that phone call must confirm his suspicions by now. He must be playing dumb.

The final episode of Arrow...
Quentin: I never cared who you were except that one time...
Green Arrow: And you were right.
Quentin: ...but shouldn't the people know the hero who saved them?
Green Arrow: A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as unbuttoning the top of his shirt to let his daughter know that the world hadn't ended.
Quentin: I don't follow.
Green Arrow: Laurel. She was broken up when the Queen's Gambit sank.
Quentin: Yeah, she was... why're you bringing that up?
Green Arrow: ... How are you still on the force?

De Gouw was actually tolerable in this episode. She wasn't good, but I was not cringing every time she spoke. So thank god for small miracles.
Great episode overall, but not an "A" like AV Club gave it. I loved the final scene though. Slade rolls up to Thea in his pimp car.

My wife believes Black Canary's push up bra is the key to her disguise. I agree, it is essential.
Felicity was not that active, but she killed every line she had. I loved the line about getting confused about who know who's secret identity.
