New Extended Promo For ARROW Season 3 Episode 5: "The Secret Origin of Felicity Smoak"
Oliver made a deadly serious enemy tonight, but it doesn't look like the show will address that immediately. Instead, next week we'll be given a deeper look at the past of fan favorite character Felicity Smoak. Come check out the extended promo for next week's episode now!
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).
In the aftermath of this victory, Season 3 opens with Arrow now a hero to the citizens of Starling. Crime is down, people feel safer, and Captain Lance even calls off the Anti-Vigilante Task Force. Basking in his success, Oliver believes he can finally have a private life and asks Felicity out on a date. But the second Oliver takes his eye off the ball, a deadly villain reappears in Starling, forcing Oliver to realize that he can never be Oliver Queen — not as long as the city needs The Arrow.
