Arrow | Season 7 Episode 19 - "Spartan"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello people!
As promised, here I am with the most recent Arrow episode!
Thank god there was this episode after the last one because this one was so much better! Still, it wasn't an amazing episode but it sure was a lot more interesting and surprising!
This episode focus a lot on Diggle and his family (as you can kind of guess by the title of the episode) and we learn so much that we didn't know before.
It starts right away with some revealing. In order to get some help on finding out what the Ninth Circle is after, Oliver and Diggle go to the Defense Department and that's when we meet General Roy Stewart, who we then find out is Diggle's stepfather. General Stewart can't really give them any information so they leave empty handed. And to make things worst, the next thing that happens is that the Ninth Circle gets into Smoak Tech and is able to steal Archer, which then leads Stewart to reveal that the drive contains an asset list that the Ninth Circle can now track, thanks to Archer.
Team Arrow and Stewart then go to secure the assets, which ends up with Dante capturing Diggle and Stewart. Turns out, they have always been after Stewart because of some codes that the Ninth Circle needs, which the General gives away when they start torturing Diggle. Luckily, they are able to get free, call in Team Arrow and get away. 
The next thing they do is try to track the Ninth Circle through Archer when they go online to find the weapon that they need, and then, go after them.
While the rest destroy Archer, Oliver confronts Emiko, telling her Dante had her mother killed. At first, it seems like Emiko doesn't really care, because she then leaves with Dante and the weapon that they went after but then, in the end of the episode, we see Emiko confront Dante and kill him, which was really a surprise to me. At first, I was really afraid they would make the same old story-line where she then turns good, so I was hoping she knew that all along, but I guess this way is also nice, with her getting her revenge but still remaining bad. And so, it looks like Emiko is the bad guy this season (wow, we've changed bad guys so much this season).
In the flash-forwards, Mia and Connor obtain a power module for the tech helmet from the Deathstroke gang, who we learn is led by none other than JJ (Diggle's son). This was a revelation! We have been wondering what happened to Diggle's son and we finally know it and I think some people guessed it - he turned bad, which was nice in my opinion. We still didn't get to actually see him so, I'm looking forward to that. 
The episode ends with Felicity (from the flash-forwards) powering up the helmet and learning that Galaxy One has expanded Archer.
Like I said, this episode gave us a lot more new information which is nice, considering that we are almost in the end of the season.
I really enjoyed this episode! Let me know what you thought about it and... I guess there's only one The Flash rant left for me to post so... I'll see you then!
Love,
Daniela.
