This was a pretty damn good episode . The Argus Stuff was alright , I thought Curtis’s reason for wanting to stay out of the field was believable and he did have a cool action moment towards the end , however the larger plot involving some shady stuff at Argus is getting more intriguing . The Felicity /Laurel and Dinah stuff was fun too , all of them play off each other well especially Laurel and Felicity . However , the best part of the episode was the prison stuff , I quite like the actress who plays Talia ,very charismatic . The action scenes they had were really good and I liked them working together
@@cinemagraphic6324 ...Forgot she was in that. I actually like Jason X, though. They at least tried to do something different without changing what Jason is, fundamentally.
I loved the women together as well. The laurel and Felicity stuff was great. It reminded me of when we have like 2 great scenes with them in S3 when I thought they were gonna dive into developing that friendship and maybe bridge some of the haters of the two. Sadly they never dived into on screen.
This season has been so damn great I want to see more of this season. Also I hope Diaz does not kill Anatoly. I know he is pissed with what happened last season but I hope he does not kill him.
Anatoly best hope *Birds of Prey-lite* swoops in the nick of time to rescue him cuz with the Bratva defunct, Oliver incarcerated and Diggle ordered from even pursuing Ricardo, his list of allies grows thin...
@@edgarretana8377 exactly and if no one here saw the trailers before the show aired it's pretty clear Anatoly escapes and meets with the rest of the team at some point.
@9:36 that *Oliver* v *Talia behind-the-back knife redirection / disarming move* was incredible🤯 - that scene as a whole really showcased these 2 characters being true masters at *hand-to-hand combat* - even tho Talia trained Oliver, she admits that in some ways *the student has surpassed the teacher* in tactical skill... as much attention as arrow has gotten for their choreography thru the years, this season could possibly surpass anything that's come before🤩🤩
@11:49 Talia couldn't help but look back at Oliver with some pride as he *honorably held the prison guards off* so she could escape - ironic, considering the fact that she *gave up her honor* to ally with another former student, Adrian Chase on his mission to *destroy Oliver* which resulted in him actually *leaving her for dead* on the bombed out Lian Yu - love the *S5 symmetry* of their scenes
*Head prison psychiatrist Parker* running an *illegal experimental therapy ward* in the bowels of Slabside reminded me alot of *Warden Wolfe* running his own *off-the-books meta human wing* inside Iron Heights during Barry's incarceration...
*"the Demon"* is Oliver's former League of Assassin's mentor, *eldest Daughter of the Demon's Head* Talia Al Ghul🏹 - one of the *best arrowverse reveals ever!💀💀*
the Birds of Prey-lite teamup of *Overwatch / Black Siren / Canary* was instrumental in getting Level 2 shut down and Parker fired from the penal system - definitely need more of those 3 working together LIKE# 89
@9:42 ofc it's a plan, eric - remember that was the same type of *fake "double-cross" setup* oliver and slade wilson used to fool chase during his *Lian Yu rescue* back in S5
Oliver threw that last fight because otherwise he wouldn't have a good reason for why he didn't escape aside from "dozen of bodies blocked my way out".
“I came here to watch this boy shoot arrows.” I came here to watch Oliver Queen kick butt however he wants, it’s always good! I do miss his bow though!
Yep. In main canon (comics and animated films), Batman and Talia indeed had a son named Damian. Film versions have been kind of shallow. Comic versions? Those give him a lot of depth. And his run in Super Sons is a fun read. As for Damian actually existing in Arrowverse... No clue. There's always some sort of Easter Egg pointing towards the Batman mythos (Talia's in this episode being the latest). So, maybe? DC just needs to make the first live action Batman series since the Adam West one already.
Was Malcom called the Demon by Nyssa? I’m still trying to figure out why the president didn’t pardon Oliver of his passed crimes for saving the world? Lol
Reaction starts at 4:07 10:21 - *"My name...is OLIVER QUEEN!!"* 11:31 - *Matt Murdock v Oliver Queen:* *Dawn of Hallways* 13:07 - Oh Yeah, Ric-bored-o Diaz is still a thing. *Skip.*
The Al Ghul family as a whole as well as their mates are the family of "The Demon". Ra`s Al Ghul was the Head of The Demon. Talia and Nyssa are The Daughters of The Demon. Batman and his son Damian,the newest and most violent Robin trained by The League of Assassins,are The Son and Grandson of The Demon respectively.
I will say this season of Arrow is putting into motion the two futures we saw in Legends of Tomorrow (and maybe Flash), ARGUS is showing signs of being shady which in Zari's time they are a major dictatorship with the metahumans being illegal (which also might be where Nora West Allen is from) and the Star City 2046 ep those flashforwards look very much like that future ver of STAR city we saw minus Grant Wilson's uprising (unless it will happen lol)
Did anyone else feel odd when Stanley said "guess the morgue wasn't the only way out" like he knew the only way to escape level two was through the morgue like Talia ended up doing? Idk maybe I'm reading into it too much...
Really enjoyed the episode. I've got a feeling the 'old foe in Gotham' is Batwoman rather than Batman, because that way if the Batwoman show comes about they could potentially move Talia over to that show and they'll already have some history. I also don't think she killed Dr. Parker, she made a point of attaching one of those electric wristbands onto his arm. There'd be no point in doing that if she was just going to kill him immediately. I'm pretty sure we'll find out later on she's taken him hostage.
I wasn't really interested in whatever is happening to curtis personally. But i think they're using it as a vehicle to push the future argus storyline, so I'm ok with it. I really wanna know how we get to Zari's future.
Hey. I wan to put this out there NOW. I've been seeing it for WEEKS, but I gotta put this out there. I BELIEVE THAT THE PRISON SIDEKICK IS THE TRUE DEMON. He may be the final fight before Oliver gets released from Prison OR he'll be revealed later on before the Winter Finale. Either way, something's up with that guy! Please find me after this rings true!!! #EXCELSIOR
The flash crossover promo showed Grant Gustin as Oliver Queen sparring with Diggle in Argus facility. This means atleast by 7th episode, Oliver has left Slabside and is in Argus.
Pfruit0916 RIGHT im always like how did people forget that arrow scene daredevil didn’t do it first but you have to factor in that that arrow episode came out in like 2012 and it didn’t have that marvel hype and it was a stand alone DC show at the time which sucks I wish people would stop praising daredevil for being the “first” to do it
Not really a fan of the ARGUS scenes.. other than that.. Arrow has been on 🔥🔥🔥 every episode!!! That hallway fight & Talia saying "Do you think they realize they're outmatched?" & Oliver replying "I think they're about to." got me HYPED!! If they keep this up Arrow S7 may end up being one of the best ever!
Now the flash also needs a hallway fight. Please do it. Everybody's done it. PS: err I wonder if we'll got a damian easter egg considering talia met her old foe in gotham lol. Welp assuming that old foe is what I think it is.
@@tonyspaniol1966 he doesnt need to be, they can just put like a several dozen bad guy in a hallway then flash comes in slow motion taking them down one by one.

Learning 6 languages isn’t that crazy depending on which languages they are , a lot of languages share words or are really really similar to each other in ways such as Spanish , Italian , and French or Chinese and Japanese , Vietnamese etc.
I called it from the beginning Parker is just insane and thinks he is getting to Oliver but he didn't. Also you guys say that we haven't gotten a good fight scene in a long time we get a great fight scene in every episode.
i thought Parker being *dirty and unethical* meant he was the demon of level 2 - turns out he was just another *"Warden Wolfe" type prison authority figure* using the under-regulated penal system to conduct illegal experimentation on inmates... although the true identity of the demon was so much better, the Daughter of the Demon herself - like eric always says the best reveals on any tv show are *"surprising but obvious"*

It just occurred to me that Dinah, Laurel and Felicity in this episode is the closest we're every likely to get to the birds of prey
what ?? dont understand what you mean? lol sorry
Well, One-third of them, anyway.
batwomen coming
Im here to tell you we got something far away from The Birds of Prey
We got closer than you thought
You can see Slade in Oliver's fighting style, not wasting time with fancy flips and acrobatics, just kicking a guy into oblivion and then your done
New intro is awesome guys!
Stephen's acting this season was so schwayyy he's really good, loved it when he said "My name is Oliver Queen"
Comics and Cartoon Green Arrow: Lame! So Lame!
Stephen Amell as Green Arrow: AWESOME!!!!

Laurel and Felicity's actors are very good friends, so of course they work well off of each other.
I hope the Argus stuff is linked with a new suicide squad including Cheetah
It's the only decent role I've seen Lexa Doig in.

“Riot riot riot” nice avatar reference
i think avatar ruined them as they do it every prison riot lol
I love that Avatar has become such a foundational reaction series for them.
If Rene is Wild Dog, and his daughter Zoe becomes the Canary, does that mean we can just start calling them Snoopy and Woodstock?

Except arrow did it infinitely better
S1 version of Arrow with the S1 suit VS Daredevil, I'd love to see this fight since I love both of these characters.
I bet Talia is going to be on Batwoman. That’s why they brought her back.
bat woman was confirmed as someone else on supergirl
shes going to be in the crossover episode and then get her own show
the actresses name who is going to play batwoman is ruby rose

Everybody talking about talia but no one is mentioning the birds of prey slowing forming with felicity, Dinah, and laurel working together
The whole episode I was wishing they used Hugo Strange...
Also the Gotham references seem to be getting more frequent across the arrowverse...
i felt the same at first but not to kill him off after only 2 eps like Doc Parker - Hugo Strange is a full season big bad
havok6280 they’re setting up the Batwoman show that’s coming.
If Hugo strange we're to find this guy's research notes...

LMAO "I'm going to heal your sole"😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣💀💀
There's a difference between Oliver fighting his way through prison and Oliver sitting on his arse while the team does his job for him.
Did they ever explicitly say what Richard Dragon shot himself up with? It sure looked like mirakuru to me.
Was Malcom called the Demon by Nyssa? I’m still trying to figure out why the president didn’t pardon Oliver of his passed crimes for saving the world? Lol
