Arrow | Season 5 Episode 7 - "Vigilante"


Spoiler Alert!

So, as promised, here I am with the Arrow rant.
To be honest, I don't have much to tell you about this episode. Of course, I'll resume it and I'll talk about the more iconic parts and such but, overall, this wasn't a big episode. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad, at all, I just think it was a pretty 'normal' episode.
Still, it had some pretty big plot twists, mostly the very last scene of the episode, but I'll talk more about that later.
Unlike the previous episodes, this wasn't about Prometheus (although we had a glimpse of him in the end), but instead, it was about a new 'criminal', if we can call him that - the Vigilante.
Basically this Vigilante is what Oliver was in Season 1, kills bad people in cold blood so, of course, because Oliver isn't like that anymore, he and the rest of the Team want to stop him.
The other part of the episode was about Quentin, who finally tells Thea that he has been drinking this whole time and tenders his resignation as Deputy Mayor.
He also tells Thea about the throwing Stars and that he doesn't think he is doing this but, instead, that he's being set up. 
Not much more happen with the Quentin storyline, besides Thea talking to him and him going to rehab.
Ok, back to Vigilante.
The Team intercepts him during a bank robery but he, the 'robber' and his crew get away, so what they do next is trying to find the robber's next target.
They eventually find him but only the head of the Team, Eric Dunn and Vigilante get away.
With the help of the D.A. Chase (which I think is hidding something bigger than this episode) they get Eric Dunn's location and the Team gets to save him from the Vigilante.
After this, they still have to find a way to stop the Vigilante. They eventually know how to lure him, which was a pretty cool scene with the Team robbing a bank.
They get Vigilante in their 'trap' but, as Oliver is about to unmask him... Something explodes and the Vigilante gets away.
So, we will have to deal with Vigilante later.
But the episode still has one more scene, one big scene! This is when we find out that Evelyn have been working for Prometheus! Like what?! I never liked her, and I was so right to not like her! Seriously, really mad at her, althought this gives me a bigger reason to not like her.
Anyway, there's still one thing left to talk about, the flashbacks.
Last week I didn't talk about the flashbacks because I didn't find them that interesting but this week they were really good. 
We get a connection to last season's flashbacks (which is cool, because I didn't like last season's flashbacks at all) and that' when we meet Galina, Taiana's mother who is working for Kovar. And, we also find out that Bratva was only using Oliver for their own ends, including making a deal with Kovar. 
And, that was pretty much it.
Overall, like I said before, it wasn't a big episode, but it had some moments.
Anyway, this week there won't be a new episode, because it's Thanksgiving in the US... But, there's still going to be a The Flash episode so, expect that rant on Wednesday and new TVD rant will be up tomorrow, so don't miss it. Oh, and besides, next week is going to be full of rants because it's the biggest crossover ever! So, there's going to be a Supergirl rant on Tuesday, a The Flash rant on Wednesday, an Arrow rant on Thursday and a Legends of Tomorrow rant on Friday (besides the usual Supernatural rant, obviously) so, week full of rants!
And yeah, so I'll see you tomorrow with a brand new TVD rant.
Love,
Daniela.
