Arrow season 3, episode 17, “Suicidal Tendencies,” airs tonight, as Diggle and Lyla tie the knot but have a Suicide Squad-themed honeymoon.
Previously on ‘Arrow’
Ra’s made his sales pitch for Oliver to lead the League of Assassins, telling him that Starling City would turn on him. He let Oliver leave with Diggle and Malcolm Merlyn as a show of good faith, and Oliver found himself struggling with whether to accept or not. However, Felicity encouraging Oliver to figure out why he does what he does helped him clear any doubts.
Meanwhile, Nyssa returned to Nanda Parbat, and was furious to learn her birthright had been offered to Oliver. After attempting to strike her father, she was told to leave. Nyssa returned to Starling and offered to train Laurel.
And, after Oliver rejected Ra’s offer, Ra’s wasted no time in retaliating; he donned an Arrow suit and killed a bunch of criminals while leaving one alive to tell the tale that the Arrow was back to his murderous ways.
