Oliver Queen has many good caliber – strength , aim , the ability to seduce dodgy evil lady . But we all make love that his mentality is the equivalent of a bunch of earthworms tie in a knot , and he feel the aftermath of that in this instalment , entitle “ Deathstroke . ”
We start out with a good deterrent example of Ollie ’s attic - power ahead of time in the episode , when he is coaching Roy through an archery moral . ( Just after instruct Felicity to throw out every content from the company of which he is currently CEO . ) Roy points out that it has been only hr since he broke Thea ’s spunk , and his own . He does n’t understand why he ca n’t tell Thea the accuracy . Ollie say , “ Telling Thea the truth wo n’t make her safer . Just the opposite . And anyone who is in our cranial orbit might get ache . ”
Now , anyone with the ability to hold the meaning of three prison term in their oral sex all at the same time would mark a flaw in that plan , but a someone with that amount of smart ai n’t Ollie . Ollie is blissfully unaware that Slade ( aided by a masked Sebastian Blood ) just kidnapped Thea merely by look for a time when she was without her superpowered fellow and asking her to get into his auto .

When next we see Ollie , he ’s at the first debate between Moira and Sebastian Blood . I do n’t blame him for not trance on to the fact that Blood ’s a villain , even when lineage say he ’s “ responsible ” for Thea being late ( because of his motorcade ) . Blood has n’t been an obvious baddie , and if anyone has to give people a whirl for throw frat - boy looks combined with creepy-crawly numb - lizard eyes , Oliver Queen has to . I am pissed off that Ollie , when calling his inexplicably missing sister , knowing that a supervillain is after his whole family , just sounds a short impatient with her . I would love to see Thea ’s face when she plays this voicemail message afterward . She is lead to want a ethical drug strength affirm word to respond to it .
The debate starts , and I wish both candidates would be honest about their supervillainy , because that would make it so much more interesting . before long they get to the video question around , and up pops Thea on the screen , with a mask man behind her . That ’s the end of that debate .
From here on we get an episode that , if slightly pull off , would be an excellent caustic remark on Missing White Woman Syndrome . We ’re at the Queen Headquarters . On a screen is Sebastian Blood , saying he ’ll suspend his campaign and donate all his resourcefulness to make trusted that Thea Queen is rescued . Moira is surrounded by the Starling City police military group , which of course mean Quentin Lance and one other guy . The Arrow team is on the case , and Felicity tracks Slade to an address .

Isabel sing to Ollie , articulate they have to do a vote on a pressing issue in the next 24 - hours . I enquire what would have happened if Ollie had just aver , “ Fine . Get everyone here in 23 hours . ” rather , he foot up a legal pad , and makes Isabel impermanent CEO . call up , this is the woman who was introduced as the person who wanted to take over the company . He did n’t even centre the committal to writing ! He just scrawl it diagonally across a corner like he was save a flirty substance to a girl on a cocktail nappy . That ’s how empire are lose when Ollie is involved .
The address Felicity find oneself has no Thea , but it does have Slade posture alone in an armchair . Sara burgeon forth him full of pitt viper malice , and he is sedate . Ollie call Quentin to have Slade catch . And as much as I try , and I have tried , I do not understand why Ollie did that . Was it the chance to explicitly connect Quentin Lance to a desire vigilante ? Was it the approximation that Slade , unwilling to let the cat out of the bag when Hulk - Roy smashed him across the face , might have opened up to a constabulary policeman ? Or did he just savour the thought of putting a murderous metahuman in the middle of a bunch of cops who do n’t know the metahuman has powers , and would n’t make love how to battle those powers if they did ? What were you even thinking , you shaggy blond dope ?
Whatever it was , it does n’t ferment out . Slade has an alibi . He gets let go . And he in public pledges five million clam for information leading to the return of Thea Queen .

Then he loses the Arrow squad , and saunters over to Thea . He tells her he only take her to make a point , and she can go . And also that she ’s wearing silly pants . ( All the right way , only I think that , but it has to be said . It looks like she bedazzle some leggings . ) When Thea walks to the doorway , he say , “ You ’re free to go , but if you do , you may never know about your brother ’s secret . ” Thea proves as rock slow as her buddy . When she turns back , I expect Slade to say , “ You clearly did not get your beginner ’s brains , ” but they geld away .
Now we have a very interesting scene , both because it foreshadows another scene coming later in the instalment , and because it impress the lesson that Ollie has to ascertain . Moira , once again facing the idea that she will have to stir up up every Clarence Shepard Day Jr. knowing that one of her children is dead , is coming apart at the crinkle . Ollie , touched , but still resentful , tell her it ’s not her fault . What he does n’t know is that Moira feels so atrocious is she believes that Barrowman abduct Thea because of her . Ollie know that Slade nobble because of him . But neither of them feels that they can say anything . Moira assure Ollie that , as a parent , you worry about what the man can do to your children , but you never realize what you could do to your children . As she speak , Ollie restfully remove her hand .
Ollie does not get quite as sympathetic an pinna from Isabel Rochev , who does what everyone , admit Ollie , eff she want to do from the beginning . The kink is that she ’s in league with Slade . Why ? She cryptically say , “ The sins of the Church Father are the sin of the son . ” My first thought was that she ’s another illegitimate faggot kid , but then I think she slept with Ollie , and that would be a piffling drear even for this series . Interesting , in a V. C. Andrews sort of way , but too dark . She gives up Thea ’s location quite willingly , and tell Ollie to come alone .

Back at the Arrow base , Roy is freaking out . Or peradventure freaking out is n’t quite the right term , as every point he makes is absolutely right . They should n’t be listening to Ollie , as Ollie is making very , very unintelligent decisions and has been for a while . thing derive to a head , and even Ollie starts yell , but Felicity cuts them all off , enunciate , “ Go . Go get Thea . Stop Slade . Do whatever it takes . End this . ”
And bam , Felicity proves she is still the salutary quality in the serial . If we could have a serial of just her , and Sara , and KGBeast , I ’d be very happy .
Ollie fights his style into the hugger-mugger lair , but finds it empty . He calls Felicity , who tells him that Thea just walk into a police place , good and heavy . And she is . She just has the absolutely right chemical reaction when Ollie and Moira come in to see her . She correctly points out that they both lied to her , and put her in a very dangerous situation , and are incisively likewise . I still feel for Moira . That cleaning woman has n’t had a decent kinsfolk Christmas wit exposure in seven years . Ollie I feel for less , since he gave Moira a hard time for doing exactly the same affair he did . To be fair , though , he does , at last , have a moment at the end where he realizes how dazed he ’s been .

Now let ’s wrap this up . Quentin is arrested for aiding the vigilante . Slade frees a jalopy full of crook , who will be dosed with the mirakuru that Isabel creates . Thea tells everyone that Slade kidnapped her . Roy sees that Thea is dependable and leaves townsfolk , lowering Starling City ’s average IQ by several points . And Slade state Laurel that Ollie is the Arrow . Oh , and Moira is now going to win the mayoral race , because of a understanding right to vote . All hail Kodos !
We end with some scene from the island . The crew determine to trade the captive who can fix Slade ’s boat to Slade in exchange for Ollie . Slade throws Ivo in for free . Sara , being a badass , adjudicate to strap a mine to the prisoner to blow Slade up , but Slade smells the TNT . He threatens to kill all of them , until a hallucination of Shado tells him to leave them on the island and get them suffer . The tangible star in this story is KGBeast , who has all the best lines .
Prisoner : “ What give us the right to determine who lives and who die ? ”

KGBeast : “ He is bond up . We are not . ”
. . .
Sara : “ Can you take out the explosive [ from the landmine ] ? ”

KGBeast : “ sure . Without it hold out off ? Less certain . ”
( When take aside the landmine . ) “ Russian turkey . Nipponese dud . They all go boom . ”
