Prometheus is Adrian Chase. I was surprised for I was certain that he was the Vigilante. So now we have two enemies going after Oliver each for their own purposes. I thought all along that Prometheus was the main"big bad", but now we have the Vigilante who wants Oliver for his own reasons. Does the Vigilante work for Prometheus or does the Vigilante want to be the one who kills Oliver? Prometheus doesn't seem to want to kill Oliver. He's like a cat toying with the prey. He wants to get into Oliver's head and now he has kidnapped Susan. What will this drive Oliver to do. In so may respects he is like Slade Wilson, and he has taken the one Oliver loves, just as Slade did when he took both Laurel and Felicity. So maybe Susan isn't the enemy the viewers thought or hoped she was. Prometheus as Adrian Chase even led Dinah to think that Adrian is the Vigilante, when he took that piece of the helmet. So who is the Vigilante? He su...
The Sin Eater brings back three formidable female foes: China White, Carrie Cutter, and Liza Warner. All three of these foes appeared in seasons one and two of Arrow. This whole season has referred back to the first two seasons. I had forgotten about Liza Warner, until the brief flashback reminded me of who she was. The theme for last night's episode addresed the question, Can you take on the responsibility of someone else's sins? Antaoly , in the Russia flashback, tells Oliver that he is a sin eater by wanting to take on other's sin. This is something Oliver has done for all 5 episodes, isn't it? Wasn't he trying to make up for his father's sins by crossing off names on a list? Oliver helped Anatoly in the hospital. I am guessing that in the next episode we shall find that Oliver killed Gregor before Gregor could kill Anatoly. Quintin Lance feels guilt over Liza Warner, because Liza heard in prison that Lance worked with Damien Dah...
Without a doubt Lian Yu proved to be the best season finale on Arrow. It had everything a good wrap to the season should have, loose ends tied, new alliances forged that could alter the course of the next season, and an ending that left the viewers speechlessly waiting for season 6 to begin. I watched this twice because of so much choice dialogue. Arrow is character driven, and because this is Oliver's story, I will focus on Oliver with each of the characters. I will begin with: Oliver and Felicity: We have watched these two fall in love, break apart, and come to understanding of who they are as a couple. Oliver in the last episode, stood back waiting for Felicity and not wanting to push her, yet waiting for her respond to him. In the finale she came to terms with who Oliver is, why he does what he does, and what motivates him. Oliver loves Felicit...
It was pretty interesting. Can't wait to see it. I hope it's good.
