In a new exciting season for all, we complete the series with a new set of exciting and action events: It seems that Oliver is forced to ally with an old enemy. In prison, after Oliver surrendered, he will face many challenges and positions, and this may be the biggest challenge, while Felicity will get a very exciting show, and Digley asks Curtis to hide away from Argos. On the other hand, Felicity is trying to find Diaz by any means.

Having Laurel, Felicity and Dinah team up this episode was a great use of the extended cast, and it's exactly what they've needed to humanize Earth-2 Laurel along the way.
At first, I found the reveal annoying... but as the episode continues, it soon becomes rather fitting that Oliver would run into his former mentor right as his identity is in under attack.
This episode should've been called "Female Empowerment" because the ladies were the real heroes here. After multiple seasons, Arrow has finally mastered the greatness that is female friendships.
"The Demon" has incredible fight scenes, a great hero moment for Oliver, and some solid sound design, but the ladies coming together despite their deep, deep differences was the episode's shining star.
If you were worried that some villain with a PhD was going to erase Oliver Queen, this episode proved he has more than just a little fight left in him, in grand fashion.
Somehow exceeded expectations, furthering the important storylines while providing us with some closure for the old ones. Throw in some genuinely shocking moments, and you have what was undoubtedly the season's best episode yet.
Ollie's prison ordeal remains the most compelling storyline in play right now... And all the while, the pointless Felicity/Laurel/Dinah subplot shows that the series is trying to juggle too many characters at once.
Just when I thought Arrow couldn't get any better, it's turned into Prison Break... well, on a very small scale. I was half-expecting Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell to come in with the assist.
