Last night’s high-intensity Arrow picked up right where we left off last time and impressed with some feature film-level action.
Recommended Videos
- The flashbacks were the major part of this episode, first showing Oliver’s target practice and workouts with Slade.
- Oliver and Sara exchanging “If we don’t make it…” speeches and Slade sobbing silently into his pillow. Thanks for asking him, jerks.
- Damn, Shado nightmare.
- Oh my god, this fire arrow scene is just like that one in Game of Thrones last season.
- Slade calls them brothers, awwww.
- Pretty sure Oliver is getting caught on purpose.
- Reverend Thomas Flynn, Hendrick were the other prisoner names. I don’t think either are references to established characters.
- Why the hell did Oliver not call for backup IMMEDIATELY?
- There’s an island herb remedy for truth serum. How convenient.
- Roy practicing shooting arrows, with his shirt off. This show…
- BIG FIGHT!!!
- ACTION! ADVENTURE!
- Holy hell that Slade catch of Oliver jumping off the boat!
- Roy and Sara showing up at the Queen residence gave me such hero feels. Slade being surprised by Sara was a nice touch.
- He kept the mirakuru, obviously.
- Slade takes Ivo’s hand, also à la Game of Thrones.
- Aaaaaand the Queen residence is now wired.
Big stuff on the way! Let us know what you thought of the episode in the comments!
