Arrow - 3.13 - Canaries - Review: You Could Be Her


VERTIGO (GUEST STAR PETER STORMARE) RETURNS AND PITS CANARY AGAINST BLACK CANARY — Oliver (Stephen Amell) is thrown by the changes within Team Arrow. He’s used to calling the shots but sees that the team has evolved in his absence and tensions quickly escalate in the lair. Oliver is furious that Laurel (Katie Cassidy) has been going out as the Black Canary and tells her to stop risking her life, but when Vertigo (guest star Peter Stormare) hits the streets again, Laurel goes against Oliver’s wishes and tracks down Vertigo who hits her with a full dose of the drug. Laurel’s biggest fears revolve around her sister Sara (guest star Caity Lotz) so the Vertigo causes her to hallucinate an epic fight between Canary and Black Canary. Meanwhile, Chase (guest star Austin Butler) surprises Thea (Willa Holland), and Roy (Colton Haynes) warns Thea to stay away from Malcolm (John Barrowman).


Last night’s episode of Arrow was amazing for so many reasons. One of the reasons being is that I actually liked it more than the week’s episode of The Flash. Another reason being that this was a moderately Laurel centric story and it didn’t make the character come across in a bad light (at least not to me). I honestly can’t remember the last episode that was able to pull off such a feat. To read the full review click here.


    TL;DR    


A+ Acting
Willa Holland slayed every scene she was in. I'm glad they remembered what a power house Holland can be.

Character of the Night
Laurel Lance (fight me about it, I DARE you)

Best Character Interactions
Oliver and Thea
Diggle and Oliver

Scene of the Night
Felicity defines the difference between Laurel and Sara
Oliver reveals the Arrow Cave to Thea

Line of the Night
Diggle: What I know, Oliver, is that you started something, something strong enough to live on past you. Question is, can you live with what it's become?

Most Memorable Moment
Thea realizes Chase is trying to kill her.

The Tear Jerker
When Laurel tells Quentin the truth about Sara

Oh No They Didn't
Canary: Dinah Laurel Lance. Selfish Bitch. You're not a hero. You're a liar, a fraud and an addict.
