This episode had good parts and others that should've been given more thought.

The start was good with the multiple locations showing the characters with their loved ones trying to have a nice evening until the action kicked in. I do have to wonder what is gonna happen to Anatoly, he's been against Oliver and now he's back in some good way with him telling him what Diaz is gonna do. I am surprised of how much he has always avoided justice.

I thought the team watching from the Helix HQ as their bunker/Arrow cave 2 was burned was a nice scene.

Dinah's usage of her canary cry was as well. Seeing finally everyone putting it what happened behind them was welcome. Shouldn't have even took place but at least Rene nor Curtis or Dinah or Oliver held more bad blood.

What I didn't like was why the writers thought now was the best moment to make Oliver have yet another bump on the road this close in the finale with Felicity. Being this long with him she should know that he always knows best about who goes out to the field and who should stay behind, not a fan of how now they decided to make them start to have a discussion about this or why Diggle began to side with her. Guggenheim & Mericle have always wanted to picture Oliver as the wrong with in front of Felicity.

Diaz was all over the place here. What was the point of dedicating an entire episode of him getting the coveted seat in The Quadrant among it's members if now he's gonna just be killing one member at the time with a knife with every chance he gets? It even takes place in front of other members and they just let it happen.

I also wished the show for the last 3 years since they introduced Curtis could let the guy win a fight. They've taken many liberties over the years with characters but their take on Mr. Terrific is the most unfulfilled of all. He's a badass and on part with what Oliver can do in the comics, they don't let him do as much amazing things with his T-Spheres like Oliver does with his arrows. I don't know if I wanna bet that the new showrunner will bother to make him start to resemble his comic book counter part.

The part of Oliver getting Felicity out from the gas looked good with that.

Lack of Quentin and Black Siren was weird, some screentime to show their wherebouts wouldn't have hurt.

So by going to the same FBI agent from the premiere now this is how Oliver is going to catch Diaz. But the FBI agent is really going to turn the blind eye and not do nothing about the big org. that is The Quadrant just to get Oliver confess he is the Green Arrow? Not so professional.

Finale looks okay, I think what will determine it's substance is how they decide to send off Paul Blackthorne's character. I will miss Quentin Lance. And Sara is coming too just for a cameo likely. Anything but a bittersweet funeral please, we had enough with Laurel's.
