Brie Larvan (guest star Emily Kinney) breaks out of jail and turns up at Palmer Tech threatening to kill everyone unless she gets the bio-chip that is implanted in Felicity’s (Emily Bett Rickards) spine. When Oliver (Stephen Amell) realizes that Felicity, Thea (Willa Holland) and Donna (guest star Charlotte Ross) are trapped in Palmer Tech with everyone else, he looks to a surprising ally to help Team Arrow save the day. Michael Schultz directed the episode written by Ben Sokolowski & Brian Ford Sullivan.

This may have been the single worst episode of this show.

Okay I'm usually a defender of Arrow, especially when compared to Daredevil.
But dude after watching the court room scene in DD compared to tonights in Arrow, the whole episode just felt wayyyy more lackluster since DD's court case was just so much more compelling.

And I already knew everyone would hate this episode since it focused on Olicity so much. Hopefully this is more or less the end of it.

I'm looking forward to this episode. I love Emily Kinney. I hated seeing her get killed off on TWD and when this character first appeared I had no idea who the actress was.

That may have been the worst episode of Arrow yet. That was some terrible, waste of time TV.

@ManDeth - Yeah, Cupid is one of the worst villains ever. And they missed their chance to have Darhk do a courtroom outburst. He just plays it cool the whole time. Boring.

@Luminus - Darhk is SUCH A BORING villain tho. When has he ever done anything cool? He's just some generic bad guy that has mystical powers sometimes like what.

What happened to Malcolm who who experienced similar tragedies that Oliver had?

What happened to Deathstroke who was once like a brother to Oliver?

Hell, what happened to Ra's Al Ghul who was the leader of an extremely powerful group of assassins (who by the way were cooler than the Hand in Daredevil)?

All we get in S4 is gunfights, mystical powers, and Felicity drama. I'd take a Hive based off of Teen Titans if it made it more interesting. This season is such a disappointment and I sorely wish that they had followed the lore earlier.

@KelvTwelve - It's been a disappointment after Ra's kicked Oliver off that cliff and he got better from Penicillin. lol.

I thought Felicity was gonna go back to being the cool Felicity and having fun again but nope the writers are doing a retread of last season and I'm sorry to say it is not good. I miss the old Felicity.
