Oh, is that right? Didn't know that. Still though, she seems like she'll be a solid addition to the cast

I'm interested in Merlyn putting himself in between Ollie and Darhk.

You know, Malcom can count the people he's murdered with one hand. With each finger representing 100 lives.

With the quality of writing this season, I fully expect Darhk to get one of his hands chopped off in the season finale and to have next season revolve around Malcolm's new evil hand.

If we got Malcolm Merlyn stealing one of Darhk's hands to replace his own and just gleefully going around being 1/8th an evil rear end in a top hat ninja wizard for season 5 that would be amazing. He'd probably forge a new Demon's Head ring just because he NEEDS to be able to stern-faced tell people "I'm Ra's Al Ghul!" whenever he needs to justify himself to someone else.

Only if they ditch Ollie as the main character and get a new, prettier boy to replace him for the rest of the season.

Well that's my story.

It seems like Malcolm should have been able to salvage some sort of quasi-League after its dissolution. Like, suddenly there would be a ton of homeless ninjas just wandering around the city. Surely some would follow him.

There is a lot of money to be made striking it out on your own as a mercenary (if Slade is any indication).

Plus if Ollie does become mayor there will be lots of jobs as gym teachers for the new curriculum; PE will now consist of callisthenics, Parkour, martial arts, and archery. If every archaic-weaponry focused weirdo in the world is heading to Star city the school curriculum needs to change to prepare young people for the world they will have to navigate.

It will be Moira and Felicity and the Baby mama all in a room with Darkh there. Ollie is tied up, wakes up from being knocked unconscious and sees the three people he loves.
Darhke, with a poo poo-eating grin on his face, gleefully exclaims:

"CHOOOOOOSE!"

That wasn't as good as the first Bamford directed episode in terms of action but there were some clever and interesting shots and a lot of good stuntwork.

Also, is Star City facing a critical HCl shortage?

Nothing he could do would protect William. Merlyn knew and probably would have known even if Oliver didn't.

I guess I kinda thought this episode was gonna be based around Team Arrow being trapped in with a bunch of Ghosts and the Demolition raining down on them and they'd have to use cool superhero tactics to fight out of it. That's not what I got. What we got wasn't bad, but it's not what I wanted.

Yeah but I want undead maybe mob boss Grundy. He already died, just say that they transferred his body to Central City before the particle accelerator exploded or something and bring him back.
