ARROW: Oliver Seeks The Truth In This New Extended Promo For Season 5, Episode 16: "Checkmate"
To let that big reveal fully sink in, Arrow is taking a short break next week, but when it returns, prepare for a major confrontation. Come check out the new extended promo for the next episode now!
The cat's out of the bag: District Attorney Adrian Chase is Prometheus, and while Oliver and the team don't know this fact just yet, judging by the promo for the next episode, it looks like they won't be kept in the dark much longer.
The episode will air after a one-week break and will likely pick up not long after Adrian's kidnapping of Oliver's latest paramour, Susan Williams. Meanwhile, Felicity will run into her own issue when her hacker collective Felix refuses to give her any more help till they get something in return.
Check out the new extended promo for episode sixteen, titled "Checkmate," below:
"Checkmate" - (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (TV-14, DLV) (HDTV)
OLIVER SEEKS THE TRUTH - Oliver (Stephen Amell) gets closer to the truth about Prometheus. Meanwhile, Helix refuses to continue helping Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) until she does a favor for them. Ken Shane directed the episode written by Beth Schwartz & Sarah Tarkoff (#516). Original airdate 3/15/2017.
Newly appointed Mayor Oliver Queen finds himself challenged as he fights on two fronts for the future of Star City. With Diggle back in the military and Thea adamant about hanging up her hood as Speedy, Team Green Arrow is down to just Oliver and Felicity – but they’re no longer the only vigilantes in town. Green Arrow’s public defeat of Damien Darhk at the end of Season Four has inspired a new crop of masked heroes to step up and defend the city, though their painful inexperience makes them obstacles, rather than allies, in the field. The arrival of a deadly new adversary will force Oliver to confront questions about his own legacy, both as mayor and as the Green Arrow.
