Synopsis:
When Oliver goes missing after Moira's death, Diggle and Felicity enlist the help of Amanda Waller to track him down. They find him in a secret hideout, where he reveals his plan to give himself up to Slade in order to save everyone else. Isabel returns and shuts down Verdant, forcing Thea to make a decision to leave Starling City for good. Sebastian is sworn in as Mayor, but Laurel uncovers documentation that he knew Slade was going to kill Moira. Laurel reveals to Oliver that she knows he is the Arrow and that Sebastian is working with Slade. After confronting Sebastian, Oliver decides that they have no choice but to kill Slade's Mirakuru army. The plan backfires, with Oliver and Laurel cornered by Slade's army, various Mirakuru soldiers wreaking havoc on the city, and Diggle being confronted by Isabel clad in Deathstroke armor. In flashbacks, Anatoli repairs the Japanese submarine that brought the Mirakuru and he and Oliver prepare to attack the Amazo.
So...Moira is dead. I guess there's no come back for her character.
Didn't understand why Oliver missed his own mother's funeral and went missing - seemed more like the search for him was a way to present some filler and tension, where it wasn't really needed.
Not sure why Oliver approached Alderman Blood and told him his identity either - when Oliver didn't actually follow up on any action against him.
And now the attack on the city begins. Certainly plenty of tension in this episode, and though it's not been so strong as season 1, we're still looking forward to the conclusion of season 2.
