Damn, Caity looks like she's been on the Season 2 Laurel diet.

Can't entirely blame her but it might have been smart to wait to see if Thea can get herself under control before going all-in, ehhh Laruel.
Heh
Like 7-8 months

Yeah hopefully, I think we've seen all anarky that was given in the season previews. I didn't expect this beginning ark to end in one ep.

Please no. I'm so annoyed with her at this point that I wouldn't mind if she remained in the background.
So Anarky will maybe become a MGS villian

I can't see the show going this route unless
you really believe Felicity will die? Even then kinda hard to see that happening this season........but it is a long season so..
It's been a year... if not more
We know Oliver and Felicity were gone for 6 months
And all of season 3 was at least most of a year.
Also imagine how
fucking mad Oliver is going to be once he finds out Laurel revives Sara. He'll never stop riding her about it

Not a bad ep , the mayor thing was done it in comics so i have to see how they do it here .

This makes that Legends of Tomorrow preview even MORE spoilery, fuck
They basically just shit on a few story beats for Arrow until like mid-season, probably

What's more spoilery? Most of this info was already released regarding Sarah/Sara(?)

Decent episode, but I'm getting the sense that this entire series is basically Laurel making bad decisions.

Nah, I mean the teaser they did announcing Legends of Tomorrow. The long 4 minute one where they were setting up everything.

LOL this "substance analyzer" thing is a doorbell or a baby monitor with the insides taken out... you can see the slots for AA batteries
Actually it's neither of those things. It's a device used to split pills in half to make them easier to swallow/get a smaller dosage.

I thought none killing Ollie can't be more lamer now it's babysitter Arrow
I least they are finally doing the resurrection story
So I'm guessing Green Arrow will never become a solo.

They need to get both Sarah and Ray back before Legends.

Haha, I've no doubt that everyone who watched that had that thought.
Nice follow up to the season premiere, I love how fast the story is moving. Guess they have a lot of pieces they need to put in place for Legends and other crossovers to happen.
Anarky fight was great, some of the best choreography in the show.
That Darhk/Anarky conversation was in the Verdant set haha
It's not like that skill is hard to come by...
At least a year, she was killed at the start of season 3. She must have had one hell of an embalmer.

We're almost back to Season 2 form!
We just need Slade to pop back in and give Ollie shit
Come to think of it, this whole episode was MGSV:
We even had Ollie setting off a land mine to alert the guards to investigate!

good episode, show seems back on track. it feels so focused, having the villain show up in the very first episode helps a lot, also Neal McDonough is much better actor than Matt Nable.
But Lance needs to get over his hate for Oliver, dude is just annoying at this point.

Good follow up and yay no more of that stupid wig, they're really simplifying Amell's shooting prep time. Not looking forward to this mayor thing, Oliver has zero credentials outside of being able to take care of himself... Though it seems he's out of practice on that front too. I'm guessing the opium trade is going to be how Oliver eventually gets to Russia since that whole story and Oliver becoming a captain still needs to be explained
Even though they've never made the connection I still think Mirakuru was derived from the waters of a Lazarus Pit. Sara was a total CW corpse...
Sounded like either Diggle might have some sort of non-killing ammo now or it was just a silencer of some sort on the gun. Maybe Coulson sent Dig some from the MCU some Icers through a worm hole or something.

It's the CW. Even the corpses still look pretty, pretty good.
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one making random Metal Gear connections.Come to think of it, this whole episode was MGSV:

Aw fuck yeah. This episode totally justified all my insane MGS shit from Season 3.
Time to post these again:
Season Finale:
Oliver Queen: You're not Ra's al Ghul. I watched him die.
Tommy Merlyn: [from behind Oliver Queen] But is Ra's al Ghul immortal?
[Oliver turns around to face Tommy]
Tommy Merlyn: Are his methods supernatural?
Oliver Queen: [to Tommy] Or cheap parlor tricks to conceal your true identity, "Ra's"?
Tommy Merlyn: Surely, a man who spends his nights scrambling over the rooftops of Starling wouldn't begrudge me dual identities?
Season 4 finale...
Oliver... Isn't it beautiful? It's almost tragic. When life ends, it gives off a final lingering aroma. Light is but a farewell gift from the darkness to those on their way to die. I've been waiting, Oliver, for a long time. Waiting for your birth, your growth, and the finality of today.
I raised you, and loved you, I've given you weapons, taught you techniques, endowed you with knowledge. There's nothing more for me to give you. All that's left for you to take is my life.
One must die and one must live. No victory, no defeat. The survivor will carry on the fight. It is our destiny... The one who survives will inherit the title of Ra's al Ghul. And the one who inherits the title of Ra's al Ghul will face an existence of endless battle, to save this corrupt world. I'll give you ten minutes. In ten minutes, drones will come and bomb the hell out of this place. If you can beat me in less than ten minutes, you'll be able to escape in time.
Let's make this the best ten minutes of our life.

Nah, but for real, good episode. I'm digging hopeful Ollie.
- Thank God his shitty wig is gone.
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ewi1AIRqgXE
- Jeri Ryan! I hope there's more with her. She's electric!
- Mr Fantastic is cool.
- Laurel continues to make poor decisions.
- Diggle continues to wear the poor decision that is that Blackneto helmet.
- Theo is bloodthirsty af. I kinda got a boner at her torching Anarky.
Not really. It's fucked up. But still. She's in Season 1 Ollie mode.
- Anarky was a great villain. Good presence, even though his motivations were... well, made no real sense? But still, I'm happy he got away. Why? Cause I've been missing this dude, and Anarky's here to fill the crazy void:
- Dahrk's got limits, eh?
- Man, fuck Quentin. What the fuck is all this hypocritical bullshiet.
- Ollie running as mayor! Love it. I want him to rub that in Quentin's face every chance he gets.
- So Papa Argent is playing Bullseye next week? What?
- I loved the return of Ollie's awful lies. I hope that becomes permanent.

So, did anyone notice that Felicity has six months to prepare to present something to the board of investors? In last week's episode, it jumped six months later to Oliver grieving over the grave of some mystery woman (I'm pretty sure he referred the person in the grave as she). So that could be the grave of Felicity, Thea, Laurel, or someone else. Is the six months thing a coincidence, is it hinting at Felicity being the person in the grave, or is it all a red herring?
