Arrow 613 The Devil's Greatest Trick

                 This week's Arrow has an interesting title: The Devil's Greatest Trick.  As a Christian, I believe the devil's greatest trick getting the world to believe he does not exist.  So with that in mind, what might possibly happen? I suppose there are endless possibilities.  Could it be getting Lance to believe that Laurel is changing for good, and so he puts trust in her?  Could it be someone has convinced William that things are not so bad?  In the synopsis for the show, it says that William demands more time from Oliver. It could also be that Oliver may end up going it alone with just his own team.  Could the Newbies be tempted to believe they don't need anyone either? 

I know I have not given you any insight, just questions, but it's fun to question things together and see what plays out in the end, right? 

The episode looks to be a great one.

    Why would William be demanding more time, when he seemed convinced that being the Green Arrow was a good thing?

    Anonymous, I think it's because he wants to be with his dad to be reassured that his dad will be okay. Even though he told Felicity that since she's here, he's not worried, he really is. As this week's episode showed us, he truly is afraid, and Oliver needed to be dressed as the Green Arrow to show him that he loved him, and would take care of him. Hope that helps.

Arrow 512 The Bratva Review

Image
Many good, positive things happened in this episode and some not so good.  Let's begin: Diggle:  Diggle's darkness began last season when he killed his brother.  The guilt of that led Diggle to a dark place where he questions his values.  Diggle beats a man to get he information he wants a bout the nuke that Walker wants to fire.  Oliver had seen the man first, but refrained from beating him. He wanted to give the man time to think,but Diggle cannot wait.  As Diggle is doing this, Rory questions Felicity on what she has done, when Oliver comes in to talk.  Rory told Felicity that when his father had given him the rags he said to "respect and guard the power and don't abuse it, clearly he thinks Felicity is abusing the power she has with the computer.  Oliver interrupts then and Rory says,"I think she's crossed the line."  Oliver gives Felicity a look of concern but runs to Diggle because of what's happened. Diggle has beaten the informant,...

Arrow 514 The Sin Eater Review

  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...

Inmate #4587 Arrow Review 701

      Season 7 heads the viewers  into  new, fascinating directions. . Wow! is the word that came into mind.  It has a  whole  new  feel to the show.  Let's  say, it's  not the Arrow  we used  to know.  The new showrunner has  given us a new Arrow that could not only last  another  season, but could be carried on into the future with new yet familiar characters. It did, however, leave this reviewer with  many questions. Arrow has  always begun it's new season with Oliver running through the woods, but this time we see William running  in the green hoodie, with Felicity not far behind.  We  find this to be Oliver's nightmare, as we  see  Diaz shoot Felicity.  I also think that this might be a foreshadowing  of the  part William plays  in future events.          Flash Forward:  Instead of  flashback...
