Salvation was a supreme episode of Arrow and I really enjoyed watching. The story was complex and well written. There was a lot of drama, intrigue and character building. Everyone's pathz become entangled and there wew many surprising moments. I liked how everything played out and look forward to watching what happens next!!!!!!!!!

Really? Where have you been for the last 2-3 episodes? We have already found out that the other archer is Tommy's father, Malcom. We found this out in the same episode when the Triads were hired to assassinate him. He takes Tommy to his room and he opens up his secret room to reveal his "archer" uniform.

I'm giving this a "1" rating, because I'm sadly disappointed in your knowledge of the show):moreless

Wow, I didnt see that of all I admire Ollie's sense of justice. But when it comes to her of which it as quite awful what he did to Chen but she had no choice. Are we sure Sarah died and what about the other archer who I am afraid we willl be familliar with (one of our friends on the island)

So the symbol in the book is the underground subway, loved the flashback scenes as well, as far as Sarah still being alive, i wouldn't dismiss that theory straight away yet. Moira as for what you've done, you brought it all on yourself, you & Malcolm deserve each other & (Is Walter Coming Back). Thea & Roy, why did Roy keep a broken piece of the Arrow which happened to be Blue Tipped, it wasn't the lighting in the club, i heard somewhere he becomes the Red Arrow. Roy was wearing a Red Hood last episode when helping Thea. I do see Oliver & Laurel getting closer. (Dont Kill Off Jon Manu Bennett' s Character Just Yet). Thumbs Up, Great Episode Again.moreless

Good Story

By Loralee_jk, Mar 28, 2013

Great episode! One of the best so far? Probably. I was started to not want to watch this show. Roy is bringing a lot to this show. I originally didn't want him, but now I love him. He even makes me like Thea. I love that she was crying over him @ her brothers club not caring who sees her. ( they just let her hang, underage?) Then Roy shows up & she's like I'm gonna clean up Also, I both like & hate the fact that they are debatable dating.

Manu Bennett is the BEST! He was Crixus in Spartacus, & he is JACKED! IDK why he uses a gun, he's got SO much training from Spartacus, where he JUST finished up w. I want him to not die.

But SRSLY this show brought up some great point! WHAT IS the difference between what that guy was doing, and what Oliver is doing? Why is his 'Justice' so much better? Because he gives them a warning, and the other guy only gives 10 minutes to plead for a 2nd change. Yes, one broadcasts their activities on TV, but still. Oliver has committed murder very casually as GA so far. He get's over his hesitation from the island and now has no problem with it,moreless
