Arrow 6x11 : We Fall review


Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it

This week's episode begins with a city wide electronic attack by Cayden James who now has complete control over all things connected to the internet. This attack leaves the city reeling as there is plenty of casualties. Including a councilman and police captain Frank Pike. This really hits Quentin hard as him and Pike had been friends (and sometimes enemies) for years on the force together.  Back at Oliver's place and we learn that William is now a complete badass at math thanks to Felicity even going as far as to be 12 grade level in only a few months. William prepares to leave for his school trip as Cayden James further tightens his grip on the city. Cayden decides to pay Mayor Queen a visit and once again accuses him of murdering his son exactly one year ago which Oliver does not recall doing as Felicity later tells him that exactly one year ago he was in Hub City recruiting Dinah for the team. Cayden then proceeds to demand that Oliver wire 10 million dollars to an offshore account every night for the foreseeable future. And all just because he wants Oliver to suffer for what he has done. 
As the episode continues on it's learned that Cayden has blocked all exits out of the city including the one that William is heading towards on his school trip so obviously Oliver and Dig set out to rescue him and his classmates. The way William takes control of the situation even if ever so shortly is just brilliant. He showed calmness and a sense of leadership much like his father would have done I'm sure. As Oliver rescues him he takes him back to the bunker and they have a talk which leaves William pretty mad at his dad as Oliver had promised him that he would never be the Green Arrow again. He later changes his mind saying that the city needs the Green Arrow after watching him out in the field at the bunker with Felicity. Speaking of being out in the field it's learned that Vigilante is actually a double agent and is now working with Curtis Dinah and Rene to take down Cayden and his crew from the inside complete with giving them vital intel from his visor through to Curtis's T-Sphere's. This leads to a badass scene where Dinah stops a train collision with just her scream. The episode ends as everything seems to be going well for both team Arrow's as they appear to have Cayden on the ropes which will probably be short lived. Once again I really enjoyed this episode. It was the perfect follow up to last week's and proved once again that when on form Arrow can easily be one of the best DC shows out there. Keep'em coming Team Arrow!

★★★★
