Ollie’s plan is to try to find Reston a bar he might have frequented.  He’s going to give Reston the chance to do the right thing.  Over at the brothel, Whaurel is with Tommy.  They’re going over decisions for the charity event.  She wants to know why he’s pulling this shit right now.

“Because I am SO horny.”

He basically says that he’s getting sick of his man-whore ways, and liked how he felt when he was all up in her guts, I mean making her omelettes.

At some bar, Ollie sits down at Reston’s table and King starts bitching about the firing.  Ollie insinuates that he knows what is going on, and gives a vague lecture about making the right choice.  Ollie offers him an apology and a job.

“Does the insurance cover accidental gunshot wounds?”

King plays the pride card and says he doesn’t want Ollie’s charity.  Ollie leaves his card with Reston.

“No gag reflex, Professional Bottom—what does this mean?”  “Oh shit, wrong card.”

Ollie also drops a listening device into Reston’s pocket.  Back at HQ, Ollie and No Diggity are listening in on the RFG.  That horrid woman with the bangs convinces Derek Reston to let them hit up one more bank.

Ollie heads to Whaurel’s benefit, and we see her and Tommy have a sweet little moment.  Tommy heads off to greet little Thea and thank her for her advice to help him snag Whaurel.  Silly Thea thought that it was all about her.  Bitch, you are like 16.  Go find some awful teenager to grind on in the back of a car.  This of course causes her to snatch the closest drink and guzzle it down STAT.

“Must have ALL the wine!”

Carter Bowen shows up, and Tommy is not pleased that he’s moving in on his trade.  Or is it the other way around?

“That lucky little bitch.”

Ollie greets his mother, and she criticizes him for not making any time for her, the poor mother who thought that her son was dead.  Yeah, skank, well it’s probably your fault that boat went down in the first place, so suck a bag of dicks.

Diggs tells Ollie what the next target is going to be, so he has to disappoint his mother yet again by leaving. 

The RFG take out the lone night guard at the target bank, and they proceed to blast their way into the safe.  There’s some noise, which is sure to be Arrow, and Ace goes to check it out.  Arrow calls out Ace’s name and shoots an arrow, but daaaamn, homeboy got a riot shield and deflects it.  King goes to join him, but Arrow manages to shoot Ace in the titty.

    I am watching to show still, simply for the shirtless Oliver parts. They need to have more of those, lots more. I really dislike Oliver’s hair, both his ‘present’ hair and the wicked bad wig they put him in for the island parts. Is it wrong to say that Oliver is hot when he has on the Green Arrow make-up?

    I think they are going to have Whaurel & Tommy develop more and get a little serious. Then she is going to dump him for Oliver. That will set up the whole Tommy becoming evil and hating Oliver story-line. I have never read the comics so that is purely my guess.

    How old is Thea? She was acting like a teenager, but for her to actually like Tommy, I am guessing 18, just finishing high school. I don’t know. All these 20-something actress playing teenagers makes it hard to guess age.

    I am still loving the show, although some of my opinions on the characters have changed. I like Tommy a lot, and don’t want him to be an enemy of Oliver, but if it expands his role, it could be good! I love a good villain.

    What I don’t get is what is so great about Laurel…seriously, she’s a bit high and mighty for my liking. Why do all these guys fawn over her like she’s the greatest thing since sliced bread? Not sure it’s believable that both Oliver AND Tommy would want to give up their playboy ways for someone like her. I mean, at the very least they’d have an awful in-law to deal with!

    Thea actually intrigues me…with so many references to “Speedy” which is supposedly her comic book alter ego, maybe we’ll be seeing her in superhero form sooner than expected? And I’m starting to like Moira, even though she might turn out to be a huge bitch. I like characters with a lot of depth and motivations.

    Don’t like Dead Dad at all. Well, okay, I didn’t like Oliver’s hallucination of him. I’m pretty sure it isn’t Oliver’s problem if you fucked over the entire city, you don’t have to be such a royal prick about it, figment of Oliver’s imagination!

    Does him throwing some of the papers in the fire mean his list of who to take revenge on is incomplete?

    I like this show. I’m watching for the Green Arrow parts though.

    I’m thinking Tommy’s going to become an enemy because Oliver’s going to go after his father.

    I don’t understand how Thea thought Tommy was talking about her. Nothing he said or did implied that it was her. And she knew that him and Laurel had a thing before.

    @Andrea I was thinking the same thing. As soon as I saw him throwing pages in the fire, I figured out what was going to happen. It bothered me the whole episode.

    @carol I can still only see Thea as young Katilin Cooper on the OC, so my age range might be skewed.

    @andrea I’m poorly versed in DC, and I’m pleased to learn about the reference to Speedy! That could add some much needed depth to her character. Even if it is some ways down the line. And yes, Laurel does need a boost in likability and an injection of personality.

    @sagittariuskim I love your idea about Tommy/Oliver. That would be the only way to make a believable rift. I’m just hoping it’s not over Laurel.

    I’ve willingly suspended my disbelief and really enjoy \Arrow,\ but I’m bothered by his apparent mad computers skillz. As a dyed-in-the-wool dilettante he would hardly have been a computer geek before the fateful cruise, and it doesn’t look as though there’s any electricity on the island.

    But one look at these workout scenes and I realize it doesn’t matter after all. I’ll definitely keep watching.

    No more Arrow recaps? I read them faithfully, but due to the current changes at work and how this site has become ad-central I don’t comment.
