At HQ, No Diggs meets up with Ollie, who still has his messy makeup on.  Diggs says that it’s not Ollie’s fault and that he gave Reston a chance.  He also says that his father would have been proud of him. 

CAVE OF WONDERS

Ollie wakes from his dream, and as he nears another piece of paper to the fire, writing reveals itself.  Oooh!  From here it looks to be a list of names.  Ollie holds the pages of the book to the fire, and sees even more names.  His resolve is strengthened to keep his promise to his father.

PRESENT

At Queen Manor, Ollie has a little chat with that bitch mother of his.  She apologizes, but Ollie says she was just being honest.  She says that she’s just lonely with Walter gone.

“I haven’t had a squirting orgasm in DAYS.”

She misses her little boy, and Ollie takes her to his usual diner.  He insists that she get her hands dirty, and he has no idea just how dirty her hands are after all the shit she’s done.

“Ahhhhhhh, there it is.”

And we end off with the two Queens having a kiki and a bonding moment.  That’s all, folks!  Well tonight didn’t do much to further the plot, but I still liked it!  We got a little development on the peripheral characters, and a tiny step for Past Oliver becoming the hard-hearted Hannah that he is today. 

So are you guys still sticking with the show?  I hope so!  If nothing else, this show is really strong background noise while you do other things around the house.  I’m all in, but hey, do what you gotta do, boo.  So where exactly is this Thea train wreck heading?  I’m dying to know what exactly the conspiracy is with Moira and Captain Jack.  How do you guys feel about the little Whaurel-Ollie-Tommy love triangle?  Chat all about it in the comments below!  I’ll see you Gasmii back here in two weeks for the next new episode, and everyone have a fantastic Thanksgiving!

    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.
