The Scientist
- first appearance of Barry Allen on Arrow
- also seems to be the introduction of superpowers on Arrow; up to this point all the people on the show with super abilities seem to have tech providing those abilities (I'm thinking of Deadshot)
- Barry flirts with Felicity or maybe it would be more accurate to say that she flirts with him
- Barry has come from Central City to help out with an investigation; he is a crime scene investigator; but it turns out that his boss doesn't even know that he is there
- there are some flashbacks to the island where Ollie and friends (Sarah, Shado, Slade) try to find a cure for Slade, which they eventually do but when they administer it to him it seems to kill him
- meanwhile in the present Ollie is dealing with at least one super-powered bad guy who reminds him of something he saw during his time on the island; Sebastian Blood seems to have a hand in whatever it is that the bad guys are up to
- Barry talks about his mother's death and how his father is in prison for her murder
- Moira deals with Malcolm Merlyn again; he wants Moira to tell Thea that he is her real father; Moira doesn't; she gets him to back off by mentioning Ra's Al Ghul
- the episode ends with Ollie badly injured and Felicity and Diggle revealing to Barry that Ollie is the vigilante because they need his help to make Ollie better
- I'm pretty sure Slade will be back in the next episode filled with awesome powers
- so far no Flash but I think that will change in the next episode
- lots of interesting developments; I am eager to see how things evolve from here; still not a great show but this episode was a lot of fun
