Arrow Recap: Was the OTA/NTA Brawl Worth All the Pain That Led Up to It?

What I’m going to say here may be a bit controversial, but hear me out:

As ridiculous (and monotonous) as the plot machinations were that led to the back half of this week’s Arrow episode, I was kinda glued to the screen from the moment that Thea found Quentin at the cabin, on.

OTA’s plan was to meet Laurel’s demands — “asylum” in another country, at which point she would turn over the cash they believe her to have. And “insane” Quentin (as Thea rightly put it) offers to stay with Laurel until she decides she doesn’t need him. Alas, NTA storms the scene just as they’re ready to send Laurel away, and a fight ensues. Dinah took on impaired Diggle, while Oliver alternately fought Curtis’ spheres and then Rene. Rene blew up Quentin’s car at one point, leaving the Lances to scurry down the road together. But Dinah caught up to them, promptly KOing Quentin. Curtis arrived on the scene to talk his team mate from killing Laurel, as it would not serve justice but serve up more violence/death. When Rene requires emergency Hoss-pitalization (his months-old bullet wound opened back up), everyone disbands, with Laurel in the wind.

Later, after Oliver renders his opinion that MIA Laurel will not come up with the $ 70 million, Dig and Felicity try to visit Rene in the hospital — only to be very rudely turned away by Dinah and Curtis: “The three of us are done with the three of you, period, forever!” (Oy, here we go again!) Oliver then is left to tell the city reps that the money has not been found, and as such he has failed Star City. Afterward, we see that both Captain Hill and D.A. Armand are on Ricardo Diaz’s payroll. Zzzzz.

The episode ended with a bleeding and delirious Laurel stumbling up to a trucker outside some sort of facility, to say, “I think I was kidnapped from here two years ago….” Wha?

What did you think of the episode”Collision Course”?

Let’s block ads! (Why?)
