"Sara" - (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (TV-14, DLV) (HDTV)

COLIN DONNELL RETURNS AS TOMMY MERLYN IN A FLASHBACK; MATT WARD GUEST STARS AS SIMON LACROIX, AKA KOMODO - Lance (Paul Blackthorne) calls the Arrow (Stephen Amell) when another archer appears in town and starts skewering businessmen. Diggle (David Ramsey) uses A.R.G.U.S. to find the archer's identity; he is a man named Simon Lacroix (guest star Matt Ward), who goes by the codename Komodo. However, the team hits a rough patch with the mission and gets help from a surprising source - Laurel (Katie Cassidy). Meanwhile, Oliver begins to worry that he hasn't heard from Thea (Willa Holland), which forces Roy (Colton Haynes) to tell him the truth about why she left town. Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh) pursues Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards). In the flashback, Maseo (guest star Karl Yune) tells Oliver that Amanda Waller has ordered his first kill. As Oliver looks down the scope of the rifle, he sees the target is his best friend, Tommy (guest star Colin Donnell). Despite her promise to her sister, Laurel debates sharing a secret about Sara (Caity Lotz) with Lance. Wendey Stanzler directed the episode written by Jake Coburn & Keto Shimizu (#302). Original airdate 10/15/2014.

Now we know what Thea was up to these past few months!

Thought this was a really good episode. Nice to see Diggle back joining team Arrow. Also liked the motorcycle duel. Boy, there really hitting the references to Laurel becoming Black Canary over the head though.

They are making Laurel's hair more blond each episode.

Thea's whereabouts were not surprising, but her progress is.

As far fetched as Thea's progress seemed, in the span of 5 months, you can at least explain it away as "She is a martial arts/hand-to-hand combat prodigy", "She IS Merlyn's daughter" or something like that. :lol:

Laurel's, however, is likely to take pace over the span of the season, and will probably be even more far fetched and over the top.

I think they intend to make Laurel very aggressive. Did everyone see how she was going to snap that guy's arm off? The producers are definitely fully committing to the character, they've basically rebooted her. I imagine she'll be Canary sooner rather than later.

I found it a little strange how they handled Sara's body. Laurel apparently drags the corpse by herself to the Arrow Cave and then the gang leaves it to rot on the open table, not even covering it for hours.:lol:

Yeah, Laurel getting the body to the cave without anyone seeing? Canary material

:lol: Plus an arrow riddled body out of a dark alley.

I thought the episode was okay overall.

There was some decent action. That motorcycle duel was cool. Not that there wasn't any doubt, but good to see Diggle back with the team.

Wish that Ollie would have shown a little more emotion about Sara's death. Amell just seemed really stiff in that scene, even though I know the intent was that he was trying to stay strong for everyone else.

So Felicity is going to date Ray Palmer?

Interesting that they brought back Tommy for a flashback.

People have brought up the Lazarus Pits as a possible out for Sara's eventual return, but I didn't see any intention to leave that possibility open. The Lazarus Pits will not resurrect the dead, they simply heal badly-damaged bodies that are still living.

They made sure to show us her dead corpse, repeatedly. It was a little strange, because Caity Lotz likely got paid extra for showing up as a corpse in this episode. Unless Laurel is some kind of criminal mastermind and staged the whole corpse dragging for some reason.

Sara is coming back via a black lantern ring.
