I enjoyed the episode.....mostly.

I liked the ending with Oliver making the mature decision to apologize and try to come clean. I'm a little annoyed that the writers didn't think that his character hasn't evoloved past that since at least Season 4 but I'm glad regardless. It showed a mature moment for him and made the ending very satisfying.

An intrestring idea for a new team, so it'll be fun to see them work on those dynamics and how they'll splinter themselves from Team Arrow.

Also I'm beginning to like Vigilante's actor but I'm still confused as to why he would side with the Society (yes, i'm calling them "The Society", it seems like the best choice).

I very much enjoyed watching Ollie go solo agian but was pissed that he didn't last a bit longer in the final battle, especially against Vigilante. I mean, I'll believe Sobel having crazy aim from him being a cop and that he lasts longer in a fight because of his healing powers, but I refuse to belive that the goddamn Green Arrow still couldn't beat him at hand-to-hand. We've seen Ollie take down immortal tyrants, master assasins, international hitmen, meta-humans, Nazis, and an army of super soldiers almost allways on his own...but know he couldn't beat a cop in body armor who can heal really fast.

I was happy to see Diggle and I have to say David Ramsey's acting was top notch in this episode, especially his reaction too his arm being stable and being able to aim a gun again. I wonder how they're gonna address the fact that the plan was to give Diggle the hood again and that Ollie was just filling in for now. Ik he comes back as Spartan again, I just wonder how they're gonna do it.

To Sum Up: amazing fight scenes, great preformances from David Ramsey and Micheal Emerson, some frustating plot points but what looks to be a promising second half of the season.

I give the episode 3.75/5
