In the last episode Arrow “Unchained,” we got to know Felicity’s father, aka The Calculator. The tech-savvy supervillain built a web nuke, but luckily team Arrow was able to disable it in time. In this week’s episode “Code of Silence,” prepare to meet HIVE’s new squad of construction-themed supervillains, The Demolition Team.
In the trailer for “Code of Silence,” Damien Darhk tells his crew, “I’m giddy to report that phase four is proceeding on schedule.” However, it appears Darhk’s masterplan has a few holes. The next step is control of City Hall, but since Oliver is running for Mayor, it won’t’ be as easy as anticipated. The plan now relies on Ruve Adams, Darhk’s wife, to defeat Ollie in the political arena.
How can Oliver take down Darhk in “Code of Silence”?
Team Arrow no longer has support from Malcolm Merlyn, who is now on Darhk’s side since Ollie betrayed him and chopped off his hand, ending his reign as Ra’s al Ghul. The good news is Thea may be able to make a ‘Speedy’ recovery since she received the Lotus bloodlust cure in time. Also, now that Nyssa (now Ra’s al Ghul) has disbanded the League of Assassins, what will she do with her spare time? Could Nyssa help out Ollie? Quentin Lance is in big trouble for giving team Arrow inside information about HIVE. Darhk will be after Lance’s head no doubt. Luckily, Roy (aka Arsenal) is back in town so the Arrow has an extra sidekick.
Last week’s episode leaves off with Meryln revealing Arrow’s biggest secret to Darhk: Oliver’s son, William. Will Oliver tell Felicity about his son or keep it under wraps? Find out in tonight’s Arrow “Code of Silence” at 8 p.m. EST on the CW.
