Still, we saw for ourselves that Oliver donned the wig, giving the impression of five years of scraggly growth on a desolate island.Īrrow will return to The CW for Season 6 in the fall. Of course, given that we've known for five years now that Oliver would escape, there wasn't too much suspense as Oliver scrambled to get the wig on straight. Oliver actually had a close call in the finale, as Kovar caught up with him and got around to stabbing, beating, and burning him for so long that Oliver almost missed his boat. In the show’s sixth season finale, Malcolm died in an act of sacrifice to save his daughter, Thea (Willa Holland) on Lian Yu, the island where Ollie (Stephen Amell) became the Green Arrow. Anatoly left Oliver on Lian Yu with a wig and a timer so that he could prepare himself to be rescued by fishermen. When Thea learned about who really killed Sara Lance, the life she envisioned with Malcolm began fading.How Was Oliver's Hair So Long In The Pilot?Īdmittedly, we kind of already had our answer about how Oliver's hair was so long in the beginning of the pilot when it was only shaggy in the Season 5 flashbacks. Malcolm twisted his way into her mind and, though he did train her well, instilled a false sense of trust within her–something that has found its way back out to the light. ![]() Thea Queen has finally realized how corrupt of a person Malcolm Merlyn really is. It was sad to see him leave us after Malcolm’s machine killed him, but I think his return in Thea’s past was a fitting way to show us that his legacy is still a presence in Starling City. His smile brightened the screen while reminding everyone that his wit and charm is still alive and well. Even though it was only a flashback, it was a sweet relief to see Tommy again. Crossover - Arrow & Supergirl - Rated: T - English - Romance/Humor - Chapters: 25 - Words: 86,895 - Reviews: 65 - Favs: 137. The more notable flashback in The Return included the early Tommy Merlyn. WritersBlock039 is a fanfiction author that has written 10 stories for Arrow, Avengers. Everything he does and every move he makes is based on a previous experience-which I am thankful that we get to see as well. They provide peculiar insight into Oliver’s mind when sometimes we just don’t understand what he is thinking. Like I stated before, the flashbacks really drive this show. It brought back an old enemy that, honestly, didn’t need to be resurrected, and threw Oliver and Thea into an easy escape and subsequent victory. Nyssa al Ghul won her showdown with her sister, and Quentin gave Dinah the assist in taking down Black Siren. The Return felt like a time to take a break from the standard Team Arrow business and veer off into a different territory. Team Arrow and allies managed to defeat Prometheus forces in the temple of Lian Yu. ![]() I am not entirely sure how their return to the island and subsequent battle with Slade did anything for the show. He won’t be winning father of the year anytime soon. Malcolm wants to put Thea to the final test: to make her an official killer. Something to alter their focus from whatever else they were meant to be doing on the island. At this point in Oliver’s arc, he is hardened and he is determined and he doesn’t see himself worthy of love. It was first broadcast on May 24, 2017, on The CW. The episode was written by showrunners Wendy Mericle and Marc Guggenheim and directed by Jesse Warn. Slade was more or less of an unwelcome distraction for Oliver and Thea. In a flashback, we see Oliver call home right after being picked up off of Lian Yu. 'Lian Yu' (Chinese: ) is the twenty-third and final episode of the fifth season, and 115th episode overall of The CW series Arrow. You are led to believe that the fierce nemesis in The Return is Slade Wilson but, in fact, it is actually Malcolm Merlyn. As it turns out, Oliver did come back to Starling City sometime in the years when he was supposedly supposed to be on the island. Most episodes of Arrow have a steady flow of flashbacks to Oliver’s travels throughout the world, but The Return played a much larger focus on them. What was particularly enjoyable about The Return was the heavy emphasis on flashbacks. His presence took over a bulk of last season when he was set on avenging Shadow’s death by killing off some of Oliver’s family. I thought the ordeal with Wilson was done and over with-never to be spoken of again. The trip quickly turned into another battle with Slade Wilson, whom Oliver had imprisoned on the island since his warpath in season two. The Return was exactly what it sounds like: Oliver’s return to Lian Yu. “How many people can Oliver Queen lose before there is no Oliver Queen?”
