This instalment was a convulsion of messy emotions and tragic misconception . Friends were opposition and foes seemed to be friends . And then , at last , a frame of deadly purity uprise from the mire and lend an sinful consequence to this episode .
A portion of multitude took a chunk out of Oliver Queen in this installment , but only one stood out as a creature too beautiful , too unadulterated , for this domain . We will get to him in time . For now , let us probe those who strike down short .
In the flashback , Shado and Slade smart Oliver terribly . Not because they deploy a karate kid schtick and have him slap buckets of water until he finds the strength to draw back the string of a bow . Not because they mock him remorselessly while doing so . No , they hit him right where it hurts : They out - sexy him . They engage in a spar at the beginning at the sequence that would make mothers in the ’ fifty march on the CW offices with burning torches . All your shirtless workplace - out have come to nothing , Oliver . I know it hurts , but they came by it candidly .

Tommy decides to take a shot at Ollie with passive belligerence , put him through a serial of aroused tests so subtle and infuriate that I felt I know what it was like to have an worked up upset . I ended their arc with my mind cock like a terrier thinking , “ So this is what it ’s like when other people have smell you ca n’t possibly understand . ” A womanhood is kill by the Vertigo drug just after she leaves Verdant , Ollie ’s golf-club . Quentin Lance comes straight to the club , asking questions of Tommy , finding out the woman texted Tommy , and finally attain the cabaret with a search warrant when he uncover bear witness that Tommy blackmailed an inspector because their ventilation system was n’t up to code . At first Tommy covers for Ollie , warning him so that they can disguise the Arrowcave . Then Ollie and Tommy have a big , atmosphere - clarification competitiveness in which they seem to understand they ’re equally guilty of mistrust . At the end , though , Tommy interprets a single look that Ollie gave him betimes in the episode as proof that Ollie briefly think that he dealt drug from the club , and walk out – to the expect subdivision of his malevolent father . Obviously , Ollie is hurt , but the actual victim of this all is Quentin , who has had the right instincts since the scratch of the series but by now is so wiped out down that he ’s really confesses to Laurel that he “ ca n’t let things go , ” as if that were anything other than an admirable quality in a investigator . Poor guy .
Digg phonograph needle Ollie with the trueness . He starts by pointing out the hypocrisy of Ollie telling him to bar dog the guy who killed his brother while Ollie seeks retribution against Count Vertigo — who seems to be behind the drugs and has escaped from an psychiatric hospital . Digg also pouts wonderfully when he get the assignment to buy some Vertigo so they can track the money he gives the monger . He peck the drugs down on the mesa and announcing , “ All right , a soul of color has successfully purchased drug for you . ” They would have done better commit Ollie ; David Ramsey is ridiculously wholesome - looking . His acting use history is rife with ADAs , detectives , and even a city manager . To make him search unelaborated here they have to put him in a hoodie so big he search like a wandering monastic . His arrow of truth fly straight , but in the end he is the one who saves Ollie from this episode ’s genuine , pure villain .
The unfeigned villain ? The one with the strength to break away The Arrow ? Orderly with a Shovel . Ollie ’s immense grudge against Count Vertigo gets deflated when it plough out that the Count ’s doctor has been blow - engineering the drug . Ollie is about to take out the Doctor of the Church when — BAM ! Orderly with a Shovel hits him right across the back of the skull , and Ollie is out . It ’s a bit of terrible lulu , like a shark fly out of the sea to kill a seal in a nature infotainment . The show could have terminate right there , but we continue . The Doctor of the Church forces Ollie to take another loony toons of Vertigo . Ollie takes a dose of his magical herbs and defend valiantly — and I see Orderly with a Shovel creeping up behind him . I do n’t dislike Ollie . I bang The Green Arrow character . But I require to see it bump again — the same way you desire to see the Alien take out an entire crew , or all the colonist on a space settlement . You have to admire its honor . Alas , Digg comes in and kills Orderly with a Shovel via a defibrillator to the head . Goodbye , Orderly with a Shovel . You were something too unearthly to stay on this gravid ball of dirt we call the world . Ollie kill the doctor , but spare the seemingly brain - dead numeration , and that ’s all for this calendar week .
