![]() His ego really needs to come down a peg or two and perhaps he should get some counseling for the past several years while he’s at it. Once imprisoned, the two have a much needed talk, Oliver admitting that the real reason he wanted to come was that he hated losing to Ra’s before. They take down a lot of Ra’s’ men, but still get taken. Clearly, she’s not on the “in” of her father’s plans…ĭiggle, thanks to some advice from Lyla, goes with Oliver to Nanda Parbat to have his back. Nyssa gives it freely, believing Oliver would die there. He wants to know Nanda Parbat’s location. While Oliver can’t stop Malcolm getting taken, he does take Nyssa prisoner. It’s no wonder Felicity doesn’t want to be with him right now. ![]() Oliver’s excuses really are getting weaker though. He decides he needs to go rescue Malcolm in order to save Thea’s soul (he doesn’t think Thea could live with getting her own father killed). Nyssa wants Sara’s killer to face justice. Thea had traded safety for Sara’s real killer. Laurel doesn’t make much headway in her vengeful attack (though she does pull a gun on him), until Nyssa and the League of Assassins arrive to take Malcolm. To Malcolm, it’s like a fly trying to kill him. Laurel then takes her revenge in an amusing attack against Merlyn, Laurel proving she’s not Sara yet. None of them want to work with the morally bankrupt Malcolm Merlyn. It’s great to see all the female characters on the same page though. Laurel confronts Oliver about protecting Malcolm, putting a final nail in the coffin of their romantic relationship (considering he’s hell bent on protecting the man that killed Sara and in a roundabout way, Tommy). That would have been unpleasant TV viewing… I’m glad to see that Laurel didn’t blame Thea at all. Laurel doesn’t blame Thea however, she blames Malcolm Merlyn. First she confesses to Roy (the two bonding in this episode over killing someone while under the influence of a drug), and then to Laurel. Thea and Oliver’s Choicesĭespite some quite awesome training going down between Malcolm, Thea, and Oliver, Thea just can’t live with the guilt. This poor kid’s fate is still rather ominous. ![]() They take down a bunch of Amanda’s goons but Maseo and Tatsu get trapped, Oliver running off with their son to save him. Ready to leave for good and go home to Starling City, Waller attacks the four of them full force. The same is said for Maseo and his family. After debriefing with the American Military, Oliver is freed to go to Japan and then off to anywhere he likes. This week’s flashbacks were short lived, but to the point. Here’s my quick rundown of “Nanda Parbat.” Freedom Denied Nevertheless, one thing Arrow never disappoints in: entertainment. I very much expected the Ray/Felicity hook up and had so many bigger scenarios in my head about the ending, that I wasn’t really shocked at all. All the hype of “breaking the internet” and warnings of being “anti-Olicity” at the same time, probably over-hyped (and under-hyped) the episode so much that by the time I got around to actually watching it, I wasn’t shocked by anything that went down (note: try not to oversell sometimes).
