Oh, I get it. This is an episode were murder is such a taboo thing that makes someone a bad person even though the gang is now just running around with guns and laser shooting/exploding robots.
I mean, the video kinda looked like it was an accident in a tussle. Opposed to the year or two were Oliver was straight up killing dudes on his father's hit list..... but Oliver had no idea he was a murderer... THE HORROR!

seems to be the case. Again, this show is so inconsistent with it's moral/ethical code, that it just doesn't matter anymore.

If they're going to have Willa Holland only appear every other episode, they might as well stop paying her series regular money. Just have her guest star in maybe a handful of episodes. I read she only agreed to appear in 14 of the 23 episodes this season.
I don't see the point of having Thea on this show anymore. Great she came back and did nothing worthwhile.
While this season was an improvement over season 4, I'm ready for this Prometheus/Adrian Chase arc to end.
and they seriously need to lose the flashbacks. Other than seeing a glimpse of Deathstroke's helmet, it added nothing to this episode.

I don't foresee them dropping the flashbacks at this point. Many producers are scared to death of leaving a once-successful formula in the dust.
They'll probably add another couple supporting characters. That seems to be the pat answer for Arrowverse shows whenever they hit a snag.

I've was thinking the same thing, that they were using rubber bullets or some other kind of non-lethal ordinance, but Zombie had a shitload of bullet holes in him so apparently not. I guess the Star City police are OK with team Arrow running around murdering people- just as long as they are criminals...
