Previously on ‘Arrow’
Previously, the trail ran cold on leads on Sara’s murder, so Oliver turned his attention to bringing his own sister home. Felicity traced her to Corto Maltese, where she and Malcolm Merlyn had settled to train. Oliver, Diggle, and Roy headed to South America, and after Oliver told Thea the truth about their father’s death, he managed to convince her to return home to Starling. Malcolm, though, was not far behind.
Meanwhile, Laurel attempted her own vigilante work by confronting an abusive, alcoholic boyfriend only to be beaten up. After being released from the hospital, she enlisted boxer Ted Grant’s help to learn to fight.
