Arrow - S4E11 - A.W.O.L.

Arrow’s regular reviewer, Alison, is on vacation so Shanna and Nina (after this recap) are filling in. Here, in case you missed them, are the key moments from Arrow S4E11, ‘A.W.O.L.’

Flashbacks 

- NOT on the Island (woohoo!)
- Andy and Diggle are stationed in Afghanistan together
- When they get a shady offer from a superior officer, Andy turns him down and Diggle thinks he’s turned a new leaf. Not true; Andy secretly worked with the guy.
- Their superior officer is connected to the Black guy who’s heading up the unit Ollie infiltrated on Lian Yu.

Felicity

- She doesn’t know if she can be part of the team anymore because she’s in the wheelchair.
- She starts hallucinating Goth!Felicity (Don’t worry; it’s just a side affect of her pain meds) but it does bring up her doubts about being a part of Team Arrow. Goth!Felicity teases that after her boyfriend “died” she promised herself she would only depend on herself, but depending on Oliver and getting involved put her in a wheelchair.
- She flubs a mission and gets down on herself. She yells at Oliver (who can’t see Goth!Felicity).
- In the end, she decides that this is the life she chose for better or worse and she wants to be a part of the team (New codename: Overwatch … ’cause Oracle was taken by DC movies).

Diggle and A.R.G.U.S.

- Former ARGUS agents are being taken out. One comes to Diggle and Lyla for help. They confront Amanda Waller and she gives them some info.
- The group going after agents is Shadow Spire, headed up by Diggle and Andy’s old superior officer from Afghanistan.
- They take over ARGUS, unceremoniously killing Amanda Waller.
- Diggle and Andy work together to stop Shadow Spire using Andy to fool them into thinking he’s on their side.
- Diggle and Lyla bring Andy home and introduce him to baby Sara.
