With her current physical condition, Felicity is really in a state of conflict. She wants to believe her father loves her and that he has a vested interest in who she is and knowing her and having a relationship with her.
Obviously, Felicity will feel very torn about the whole thing, especially when she already has a hint that Noah Cutler is actually The Calculator.
Beyond the Roy Harper – Thea Queen and Felicity – Papa Smoak reunions, there were a few other surprises during the past episode of “Arrow.”
A new candidate is now running against Oliver Queen, which is Ruve Adams, Damien Darhk’s wife. It’s an interesting twist and Plan B to Darhk’s terror campaign now that he owes Oliver a favor.
In his flashback story, Oliver learns a thing or two about telling the truth, though it hardly seems to help him in the bigger, chronological timeline. While he ended up telling Taiana the truth, but after he makes his way back to Star City, he felt that he hardly stopped lying to everybody.
Another interesting plotline of the episode is Thea and her bloodlust. While she has done it in the past, it is interesting why Thea cannot feed her bloodlust through the Team Arrow’s regular operations.
