After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the Pacific. When he returns home to Starling City, his devoted mother Moira, much-beloved sister Thea, and best friend Tommy welcome him home, but they sense Oliver has been changed by his ordeal on the island. While Oliver hides the truth about the man he's become, he desperately wants to make amends for the actions he took as the boy he was. Most particularly, he seeks reconciliation with his former girlfriend, Laurel Lance. As Oliver reconnects with those closest to him, he secretly creates the persona of Arrow - a vigilante – to right the wrongs of his family, fight the ills of society, and restore Starling City to its former glory. By day, Oliver plays the role of a wealthy, carefree and careless philanderer he used to be - flanked by his devoted chauffeur/bodyguard, John Diggle - while carefully concealing the secret identity he turns to under cover of darkness. However, Laurel's father, Detective Quentin Lance, is determined to arrest the vigilante operating in his city. Meanwhile, Oliver's own mother, Moira, knows much more about the deadly shipwreck than she has let on – and is more ruthless than he could ever imagine.

“Arrow” este o dramă cu supereroi a cărei poveste se învârte în jurul lui Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell), un playboy miliardar care, după ce un naufragiu îl aruncă timp de cinci ani pe o insulă pustie din Pacific, este găsit şi se întoarce în oraşul natal Starling City.

Pe măsură ce începe să se reconecteze cu cei dragi, care l-au crezut mort, Queen este hotărât să îndrepte greşelile din trecut, iar pentru asta îşi creează un alterego, devenind un justiţiar vânat atât de răufăcătorii din oraş, cât şi de autorităţi. Green Arrow şi-a făcut apăriţia şi în “Smallville”, dar aceasta va fi o versiune mai întunecată a personajului. Îmbrăcat ca Robin Hood, înarmat cu un arc, săgeţi, un abdomen demn de Mr. Universe, o grămadă de bani, şi o listă de nume furnizate de către tatăl său decedat, Arrow îşi propune să readucă oraşul la fosta sa glorie în primul rând prin eliminarea corupţiei.

The three episodes following Oliver's seeming death "are among the best we've ever done. They're incredibly compelling," EP Marc Guggenheim promises. The fallout at home not only "makes it necessary" for Laurel to don the Canary costume, but also brings together characters that previously haven't shared a lot of screentime. "There's a lot of Thea and Felicity," and "[Felicity will] have some pretty big moments with Laurel as well." Diggle gets "emotional" in the first hour back, shares David Ramsey, who also hints that the H.I.V.E. storyline will be revisited. Viewers also haven't seen the last of another elite group. "We're definitely going to bring back the Suicide Squad," EP Andrew Kreisberg confirms. And though Sara's killer has been unmasked, Sin will play "a pivotal part" in that storyline in Episode 12, while Sara (Caity Lotz) and Vertigo (Peter Stormare) both appear in Episode 13. Not to be outdone, big bad Slade Wilson (Manu Bennett) returns the following week.
