ARROW Season 3, Episode 5 Description; "The Secret Origin of Felicity Smoak"
The CW have released the first official description for the fifth episode of Arrow's third season, and as you've probably already guessed from the title, it will explore the origin of fan-favourite character Felicty Smoak! There's also details on Laurel, Wildcat and Thea. Check it out!
CHARLOTTE ROSS (“NYPD BLUE”) STARS AS FELICITY’S MOTHER — When a cyber attack brings Starling City to its knees, Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) are pushed to their limits to contain the destruction. Life gets even more complicated for Felicity when her mother, Donna (guest star Charlotte Ross), stops by for a surprise visit. Meanwhile, Ted Grant (guest star JR Ramirez) questions Laurel’s (Katie Cassidy) motives, and Thea (Willa Holland) buys an apartment with Malcolm’s (John Barrowman) “estate” money, which infuriates Oliver. Nolan Funk guest stars as Felicity’s ex-boyfriend. Michael Schultz directed the episode written by Ben Sokolowski & Brian Ford Sullivan (#305).
This should be a pretty interesting episode, and those who aren't fans of Felicity will likely be happy to know that there will plenty of other things going on in Starling City while we explore her past. Don't expect a description for the November 4th episode of The Flash this week by the way as it will be a rerun of "Things You Can't Outrun"! What do you guys think about this Arrow synopsis?
