Preview Arrow season 2, episode 21, “City of Blood,” with the episode synopsis, promotional stills, and trailer.
Previously, Slade tore apart Oliver and Thea’s relationship by revealing to her that Malcolm Merlyn is her father. He attempted to do the same with Oliver and Laurel by telling Laurel that Oliver is the Arrow; however, she eventually accepted it and decided to keep his secret.
Meanwhile, Isabel Rochev revealed that she and Robert Queen were once lovers. And, after Isabel was shot by Diggle, Slade revived her with a dose of Mirakuru while also supercharging his own army. Oliver, though, stole a vial of Mirakuru in the hope of synthesizing a cure.
In the wake of Roy’s Mirakuru-induced rampage, Sara broke up with Oliver and left Starling. And, in shocking twist, Slade captured Thea and Moira to force Oliver to choose between their lives. Moira, though, sacrificed herself for her children and Slade revealed he still has one more target.
Read our recap of the last episode, “Seeing Red,” as well as the EP’s comments on Moira’s death.
