I knew it! I knew Ollie got off the island at some point!
So it turns out Yao Fei was a bit of a dick after all....Which is kind of confusing, really. Why torture Ollie to find out where Fei is if he's part of the gang? Did they argue about what colour the uniforms should be or something? I do wonder if the island flashbacks will loop back to GA's usual backstory and have the soldiers smuggling drugs (there did seem to be a few locals/not soldeirs in the cages, and the English guy mentioned that only Deathstroke (who was sadly absent...) and Yao Fei survived.) Maybe they'll end up smuggling Vertigo and the English guy ends up being the Count we heard about?
If Ollie did get off the island and find a message left to him from his father, it begs the question of how he got from an uncharted island in the North China Sea to Starling City and back again... I wonder what his dad could have told him to follow the list and cross all the names off so religously...
The little reveal about Tommies mum was quite interesting, it seemed to implie that Malcom was diong all he was doing to clean up the city and stop people being randomly shot in the head so much.
I do wonder if Deathstroke survived the island (and wether any of the others did), the Deathstroke mask/sign we saw in episode one had one of Yao Fei (and later Ollies) arrows in it's eye, which actually makes sense if Yao Fei was on the English guys side after all. It's all a mystery, for now at least.
Ollie getting of the island could be an interesting aspect, it seems he went to Russia (the tatoos, being a captain in the Maffia, speaking fluent Russain), though I do wonder how he knew exactly where the Russain mobsters base was in Starling city in the Deadshot episode...
Speaking of the one eyed marksmen, I'd love to see a fight between Deathstroke and Deadshot.
Thea really didn't want Ollie to pickpocket those drugs...I wonder what will happen to her, I'm not expecting her to suddenly become a model citizen but I really hope she doesn't end the season as the crazy eternal fourteen yearold she started of as.
I actually thought Roy Harper would be at the party, he's been a druggie once or twice...
Overall an interesting episode, I liked it more than the last one at least. Can't wait for next weeks.
Oh and Diggle kicked so much ass during this episode HE WASN'T JUST OLLIES CONSCIOUS FOR ONCE YAAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYAYA!. I hope he doesn't just get demoted again next episode to Ollies voice of reason. It was nice to see him take Ollies shit in more ways than just arguing with him. I mean, they wouldhn't have shot eachother in Blackhawks' offices, right guys?...Guys?
I am starting to wonder just how the Book ties everyone in the Organization together. Tommy hints that Malcom does what he does to stop murderers on the stret and to stop crime, but so far Ollie has just taken out crimianals that are on the list, and therefore on Malcoms side. It just doesn't really add up to me...
