“Then I shall beat him off, I mean beat it out of him.”
Smoak reports to Steele that there was no company and no investment. The money was used to fund an offshore LLC named Tempest. Uh oh, like the thing that capsized the Queen yacht. It turns out that Tempest purchased a warehouse in Starling City in 2009. Hey, maybe she just has a LOT of shoes.
Diggle meets with Carla (was that her name?) at the diner. He’s obviously taking Ollie’s offer into consideration. He wants to make a difference again.
We waste no time in Arrow holding Brodeur at bowpoint.
“Break yoself, girl! Gimme yo goddamn phone number!”
Brodeur doesn’t want to play, so Arrow shoots him through the palm.
Gotcha, bitch!
Arrow has Brodeur answer his phone, and we learn that the attempt on declan’s life is going down in one hour. Whaurel is meeting with Declan at the moment, and Arrow descends on the prison. Goon shows up and bribes a guard. His team shuts the power off and unlocks the cells, causing chaos.
The prisoners go wild and take it out on guards. Whaurel and Declan run, and Arrow saves them dressed as a guard wearing a balaclava. I guess that was his Halloween costume. The three head off into a side room before a tactical response team can get to them. Except in the new room, goon is waiting to bust some skulls.
Come on, ho, I know you got some moves.
Goon is choking out Whaurel when Arrow tackles him and goes crazy circus weasel on his face with his fists. Whaurel draws him off Goon, and he almost Chris Browns her ass.
“Oh shit, I thought you were Rihanna.”
The guards secure Declan, keep Whaurel safe, and allow Arrow to escape. Outside, Detective Dick hugs his daughter and Goon has confessed to killing Camille Declan. I wish I could say this was a touching moment for father and daughter, but he is just so fucking unlikable that I wish he’d get shot in the face. Whaurel says that she knows DD was right. That Arrow is a killer and would have killed that man and has no remorse.
THE ISLAND
Ollie is hungry as fuck and finally goes all Skupin on that bird.
Wet pants yet again.
PRESENT DAY
Whaurel tells her daddy that Arrow was in a guard uniform and ski mask, which gives DD an idea boner.
Steele is at the previously mentioned warehouse, and types in a few passwords to open the lock. Nothing works until he types the late Mr. Queen’s name. He turns the lights on to find the wreckage of the Queen yacht!
If you like it, spread it!:

Diggle is a terrible name (even though I like the character). I keep wanting to call him “Dingle”!
Back to reading…
I hope we find out what exactly happened to Diggle’s brother.
And I hope we get more Felicity.
Captain Jack! If he’s going to be an evil bastard on this show, let’s hope he’s still a horny bisexual evil bastard.
That scene on the roof between Ollie and Laurel was one of the funniest things I’ve seen on television all year, and I watch a lot of comedies. The camera kept lingering on their flat, expressionless faces, and the dialogue was just horrendously written, then delivered with no expression and lots of awkward pauses that I think were supposed to be meaningful. And how on earth does Laurel not recognize Ollie? That hood hides approximately none of his face.
Oh well. There is actually a lot I like about this show. Walter/Moira really intrigue me, and I hope Walter is going to turn out to be a good guy and bought into the fray. (Writers: Walter + Captain Jack, soon, please!! ) I also like the Diggle/Ollie dynamic, and the idea that the show is willing to actively question the morality of Ollie’s actions, and maybe take it somewhere a little deeper than your usual tween-geared comic book type show.
