    Maybe this means more core Arrow. I enjoyed Capt. Lance, same with Diggle too.

    It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

      I'm starting to like Rene abit more. But regardless, nothing can compete with OTA.

        I was never an anti Laurel person, but I have to say the new Dinah fits in great to me.

            Wow, when a show has a political agenda, sometimes it's subtle. Not so much here. This episode was horrible imo.

              This episode was much better than most if not all others this season! Though this just raises further questions.

              Also, all those balls jokes on Curtis lol.

                Overall good/great episode, but the Prometheus reveal really wasn't shocking. Adrian was always one of the possibilities but now that it's confirmed, I'm mostly just left wondering "and so?" I almost prefer it more when we didn't know. They're gonna have to give us more backstory and why he's such a match for Oliver since all we know is his dad was killed by The Arrow and 4 years later, he's highly trained and wants revenge (or something).

                  It was still shocking to me at least. Didn't think much of it when they just said it's some random guys son looking for revenge, but now tying Chase in with all this does make it better.

                    His character changed the last few weeks. He seemed to be getting darker to me. Not really shocked becaus Flash does the same thing with the bad guys being a close so called friend. I am sure he found out as much of the green arrow he could and probably has some Malcom training in him if I was a guessing man. Lol

                      I thought the epsiode was really really good...one of the better ones this season. I'm also excited that they didn't drop the Falicity "evil" plot line but they're keeping it going. I expect the writers to eventually have her face a dilemma wherein she has hack or do something against Oliver as mayor - I hope that it's written well enough to really draw a lot of intense moments versus her simply surrendering.

                      I can't say it wasn't shocking who Prometheus is as much as I hate the fact they reveal it now with several episodes left. What's wrong the Scooby Doo approach and revealing at the end?

                        Re: Arrow (Season 5)

                        Weird that Oliver didn't know Talia was Ra's daughter. Didn't everyone else(viewers) know that for like the past 2-3 years? And Sara did too since on an episode of Legends when they went back in time and she was at Nanda Parbat, she did meet Talia(before Nyssa was born).

                        And she's mad at Oliver for killing her dad. But didn't her Dad basically want Oliver to kill him? Seemed like he turned it into a whole honor kill thing before he died.

                        But the stuff with Chase is good though. He can alternate between being Prometheus and Adrian. One scene he kills his wife, the next he's just back at work, then he fights/kidnaps Oliver, and then goes back to work afterwards lol.

                          This season stared out bad...but boy, has it picked up steam. Arrow loves to embrace the villain and the writing for Chase is good.

                            I was a bit bummed that they revealed Prometheus was Chase last episode but man am I glad they did now. Him turning the evil on and off was excellent. Really enjoyed this episode and the actor playing Chase has been lights out as far as I'm concerned.

                              Based on my knowledge of comic lore, she's mad at Oliver for killing him because she wanted to kill him and take over as the Demon's Head.

                                I see my quibble about the reveal of Prometheus being "ehh" is really just a quibble. I agree with Adrian -- it's nice that everything is out in the open! Now it really makes me wonder why he wants Ollie to suffer so much. It can't be just because his father died at the hands of the Arrow, there has to be more to it.
