Arrow Season 1, EP 23 - Sacrifice

[cryhwks]

Great episode by far my favorite so far.

The island wasn't shown that much but what was shown was really good. I'm glade Shado seems like she'll be sticking around I like her character & the actress. & it was awesome that Ollie's 1st hit with the bow was on Fyers.

Happy that Ollie & Malcolm did have big final fight & it was awesome how Ollie beat him by putting an arrow through himself to get Malcolm.

I liked the Detective Lance stuff with Felicity & I have believed that Lance would become the Jim Gordon to Green Arrow's Batman & from this episode I think I will be right.

Moria redeemed herself a bit by telling the truth in a very big way. I loved Roy kicking but & Thea actually became a good rounded character I hated her in the 1st half of the season but now I like her.

The ending I called many months ago I knew when this episode was titled "Sacrifice" that Tommy would not become The Dark Archer & that he would die.

This series likes to do the opposite of what a normal series does. People know that Ollie is the Hood in most series no one would find out for years. Ollie hooks up with his main love interest in the 1st season again something in other series that would take years. & everyone thought that Tommy was following the rout of Harry Osborn & for that reason I knew he wouldn't.

Overall a great episode & a great Season can't wait for Season 2.

What an awesome episode. Malcolm Merlyn, congratulations. You killed your son to make up for your wifes death. Clap clap.


All of it shocked me pretty much. I don't know how long they have been on that island for, but it has not been remotely close to 5 years. It will be interesting to see how they further the plot on the island. Because Oliver has the same tattoo of the chinese girl (forget her name), and i don't think he would get that tattooed just because she has it, so i have a feeling both her and the Aussie bloke die later on? Maybe the Chinese come on to the island after that rocket attack? I don't know.

Tommy dying wasn't that surprising, but the way he died was. I expected him to take an Arrow for his Father and die that way, but him saving Laurel and dying in front of Oliver was a great way to do it, a good guy until the end. I also wonder whether Malcolm is dead or not, it just didn't seem like he died?

The second device was an awesome touch, i did not expect that at all! It leaves the question as to whether Roy and Thea survived and if Felicity is just trapped inside the nightclub and not dead? I still don't know what is going to happen in season 2, and that's the best bit.

It was pretty great. Tommy's death took me by surprise. Actually, the way he behaved throughout the episode took me by surprise. I was expecting him to be more bitter towards Oliver, and that he would become next season's villain after Oliver killed Malcolm. Which also didn't happen. But greeeaaat episode nonetheless!
