Spoiler Alert!
Hello guys!
Here I am, like promised, with a brand new Arrow rant!
Just like The Flash (and Supernatural, which the rant will come next), Arrow got back from hiatus this week and with a pretty intense episode!
I've already kind of guessed that this would be a pretty big episode but it was even better than what I thought it would be! Ok, there were a lot of times where I was just pissed off at the NTA, specially Rene and Dinah (I'm sorry Juliana, I love you but Dinah has been really pissing me off this last couple of episodes. I guess you're doing your job right though.) and, at the same time, I actually felt bad for Curtis but, after that last bit of the episode... Damn! Curtis really let me down! But anyway, let's get into the whole plot of the episode.
Like we've seen in the preview that The CW put up on their Youtube Channel a few days ago, Dinah, Curtis and Rene are able to get some clues from the place where Laurel was last seen, finding out that she was dragged by someone who, possibly, took her.
Of course we already know who that someone is - Quentin - which we later find out that he took her to a cabin in the woods to allow her to heal.
With everything going on in the city, it's lack of money to keep things going, Oliver, finds that someone took the cash from Corto Maltese so he starts searching for who 'stole' the money and later find out that it was Laurel aka Black Siren.
In a way to try and get Laurel to 'contact' with Quentin, he comes up with some story just to get back to the cabin and to her. Thea finds the whole thing pretty strange and odd and she follows Quentin, finding out about him keeping Laurel in that Cabin and then telling Oliver and Team Arrow where she is.
Oliver demands the return of the money, which Laurel promises, if they get her out of the country before Dinah finds her.
After that, that's when things start getting really messy!
Actually, before that, Oliver messed up with Rene and the others which was actually just part of Rene's plan to get a bug on Oliver as a way to find out where Laurel was, which they do after Thea tells Oliver where she is.
On the way to the cabin, they realize that they're being followed and that's when Felicity finds the bug.
Out of options, Curtis crosses the real line and deactivates the chip preventing John's tremors, allowing them to find Oliver, Felicity and John and hence finding Laurel.
After that, the real fight happens and Dinah even injuries Quentin after him refusing to let her kill Laurel. Also ending injured is Rene, who then has to go to the hospital. And, to top everything, while all this is happening, Oliver also throws a device that prohibits Dinah's scream, allowing Laurel to incapacitate them with her own scream and then escape.
The fight basically ends there and, actually being the good people that they are, Felicty and John go to the hospital to see how's Rene. They are met with Curtis and Dinah who turn them away (that's when Curtis is really harsh with them which, in a way, is really good, since his character in the comics is way more powerful than in the series but, at the same time, just made me really sad and angry at him, mostly because of how he made Felicity feel. It was clear that she was hurt and that hurt me too.) saying they want nothing to do with them anymore.
Then, in te very end of the episode, Laurel asks a van driver for help impersonating the 'real' Laurel saying thar she was kidnapped and kept locked up for two years.
Well, this last thing changes everything and I feel like they are going to focus on the Laurel storyline for a bit. Maybe not many episodes but I predict about 3 or 4 before they get really into the whole Diaz storyline. Of course they will touch on that throughout this next episodes, just like they did in this one but I guess they will only really get into it in episode 18 or 19.
Well, I guess that's pretty much it for this episode.
Let me know all your thoughts on it! Are you OTA or NTA? What do you think will happen to Laurel in the end? Tell me everything!
I'll see you in a few minutes with a new Supernatural rant!
Love,
Daniela.
