So we start off by saying that this episode was better than the previous one. It felt like I was watching Arrow again and not a random drama series where everyone was whining about everything and nothing.
This episode was focused on following Ghost and try to interrupt any plans they were trying to accomplish. We found out that Diggle's dead brother is not so dead again. That is the only problem I have with this series, nothing stays dead apparently. So Diggle's brother Andy is in Ghost. Probably drugged so he will follow Damian's orders not matter what. We saw that in a scene where Damian gave some random citizens on a dock some yellow pills.
So Diggle knowing now that his brother is alive, he is a bit upset about that. Quite understandable figuring out that your brother is alive after 8 years. Well I would be a bit upset as well, no matter what the excuse is. Team Arrow wants to help Diggle by offering to capture Andy and figure out what really happened. Diggle did not want that all, he gave up on him as he of course also found out the truth about who his brother really is. At the end they did indeed capture Andy and Diggle wanted to know if everything is true about the file that he read about him. A simple 'yes' came out and that was it.
We finally had some Oliver Queen as the Mayor scenes. A few moments after his speech about the Star City Police Department. Damian Darhk came to Oliver. Darhk not knowing that Oliver is the Arrow and was just talking to him as mayor was pretty awesome to see. Of course you saw that Oliver was a little shocked because he was talking to the enemy right now. They had a little talk about the city's future plans and Damian right on top threatened Oliver by not (re)-opening the bay. Oliver did consider that option.
Back to the base of Team Arrow. Diggle and Oliver just came back from a mission together to try and stop Ghost once again/ taking Andy. Oliver almost died. They had an argument together and Diggle came up with a really good idea. If we want to take out Damian we have to do it in light's day. After the last fighting scene Oliver told Diggle that he is going to do that. But he was not telling him how, he'll see. And we saw it. Mayor Queen re-opened the Bay in light's day. Damian was there as well while Queen was giving his speech about that he will not stop fighting for this city. If I were Damian, I would think now that Oliver Queen is The Green Arrow.
So on to Thea. We finally gave her a purpose I guess. Thea's blood lust was a bit boring until Malcolm, her father showed up. He gave her some papers with a name from a pedophile that had to be killed. Thea's answer was a straight no and threatened her father that she will call the police if he he shows up again. So after the last fight in this episode Thea was fighting with some Ghost members (including Andy) she knocked him out. She turned around a corner and there he was, Damian Darhk. The first time in this season where these 2 characters met each other (i think). Damian knows that Malcolm is her father and that Malcolm is the new Ra's Ah Gul. They did not fight, Damian did however grabbed Thea at her throat and then something beautiful happened! Damian released her because apparently when he touched her, something happened to him. You saw him turn around and you saw that was something wrong with him. I can't really explain what I saw, sorry about that. Thea now asked her father to come and help her. She thinks that she found out how to contain her blood lust without killing people.
We also saw a little ATOM action! Two words for it: Freaking Awesome. Can't wait till Legends of Tomorrow where we will see more ATOM Action/ Ray Palmer scenes.
Oh yeah! we also had the flashbacks. Still not interesting in my opinion.
Some + and - points!
+ Diggle emotional scenes.
+ Thea's Bloodlust and Malcolm.
+ ATOM action scenes.
+ Queen as the Mayor speeches.
I will give this episode a 8.2/10
