Arrow #217 - Birds of Prey

3

Huntress returns to Starling City and it puts Laurel in danger.

*WARNING! Thar be spoilers in here!*

Frank Bertinelli is finally brought in, so you can bet that means his daughter, Helena Bertinelli aka the Huntress, will make her way back to Starling City. I'll be blunt: her prior appearances didn't exactly generate the show's best moments, and, while this isn't the best episode around, it's certainly not bad, either.

First and foremost, Roy actually plays a role in this episode! Huzzah! It's almost like the writers knew the character was being neglected because he makes a remark along the lines of, "I thought you'd never ask me" when he's given the chance to go back out and help fight crime. To be totally honest, the development with him feels a little rushed. I understand where Ollie's coming from, but it felt like his decision regarding Thea was made pretty abruptly and wasn't given the full amount of thought it deserves. Yes, Oliver is afraid Roy could lash out and hurt his sister, but she's also the one thing keeping him in check. Also, keeping Roy distant from Thea means she's less likely to have a super-strong dude by her side a good amount of the time, and isn't that needed now more than ever? I mean, we all know this ultimately happened just so the end could occur, but it would have been cool to see this dynamic develop a little more over the past few episodes. Gripes aside, we can all agree his brief display of healing and strength was really cool, yes?

The plot that revolves around Huntress,Black Canary, and Laurel generated some good performances but came off feeling pretty safe. There were so many moments where I wanted them to take a risk and offer a reveal but they managed to dance around delivering one every time. After all, Laurel being in Sara's personal space and staring at her makes it a little tough to suspense disbelief and I was hoping she may be able to put together the pieces on her own. Still, these conversations were engaging, even if the overall message about killing felt a little too redundant at times.

The choreography during the action sequences were solid, but did anyone else want to do a double-take when someone did a crazy flip after taking an arrow to the leg? I mean, I get it looks cool, but that seemed a little over the top, right? The fights elsewhere were definitely enjoyable, but having fewer close-ups would maybe allow us to better appreciate each move that's made in the melee.

The writers packed a fair amount of fan service in this one, too. From a nickname to finding a way to work in Gail Simone's name, there were quite a few bits scattered here and there that served as a nice nod to the source material. And yes, we saw the return of the canary cry! Or at least the technological version of it.

Once again, Slade's reserved for the cliffhanger (in the modern era, that is). Don't get me wrong, what happens absolutely has a ton of promise for the upcoming episode, but saving him for the very end has happened so frequently that it's lost a good deal of impact. Also, I get the reason behind why Thea gets in the car, but didn't she say she wants to be alone and hasn't she walked that way plenty of other times before? Like I said, what goes down has a lot of potential, but teasing Slade at the end has become so common that it doesn't pack as much of a punch as it could. Oh, and I'm sure I'm not the only person a little letdown over zero follow-up with the uneasy alliance between Green Arrow and Amanda Waller/the Suicide Squad.

I know I have a lot of complaints about Birds of Prey, but I still think it's an alright episode. Tackling the subject of killing felt a little overdone and is something they've already addressed quite a few times before in the show, but given the scenario, it wound up producing some pretty good performances from the cast and included a few entertaining bits of action. Even though I think Slade is reserved for the cliffhanger far too often, I'd be a total liar if I said I wasn't excited for the next episode.

Ok, so i could be going WAYYYYY out there right now, but this caught my eye while watching the Episode today. And honestly, the shot stays on it for a few seconds. Leading me to believe, were they showing us that for a reason. Could this be a nod/wink to The Red Hood?

Now, i know it seemingly wouldn't make TOO much sense to have a red hood mention/appearance when there have been no such thing for Batman or robin or even Nightwing. But with the rumors that Roy is going straight into being Arsenal, in the n52 series, we know that Arsenal DID run with Red Hood and the Outlaws. Would it be that crazy for them to drop this hint in an episode where we see Roy going through turmoil, break up with his woman and is shown to be dealing with it poorly when he crushes the bracelet?

Again, it is very possible that I am a drunken retard. But even us DR's get it right sometimes... Right?

It's too bad she got arrested at the end. Was hoping that she'd pop up in an episode once a season. The actress has gotten WAY better since season 1.

She will probably join the Suicide Squad

For the title being "Birds of Prey" it really is just misdirection, especially after an episode called "Suicide Squad" where we got the real thing. Was really hoping for a Canary/Huntress team up by the end.

Also does anyone else think they're going to kill off Sarah so Laurel can inherit Black Canary? Laurel and Helena seemed more likely to turn ally than Sarah and Helena.

The real issues I had with the episode were Huntress being able to take Sarah in a fight and that random vigilante-hating cop being able to dodge TWO of Ollie's arrows.

I at first thought that Ollie's decision to tell Roy to stay away from Thea was dumb, as she's been the one thing that's kept him in-line so far. But thinking about it, I feel what Ollie realizes is that using Thea is only going to work on Roy for so long, but sooner or later it won't and Ollie will have to put him down. I believe what Ollie intends by splitting Roy and Thea up is to convince Roy to get his anger under control, that way he'll be able to be with Thea again.

@saren:

the thing with that is that slade would take all of 10 seconds to kill malcom.

Slade is the guy who trained arrow who won against the dark archer last time and slade is a faster and much stronger than arrow

A solid episode, Huntress was better out this time than the last two, so good on them for that.

I'm just excited for any and all screen time Huntress gets. Easily my favorite DC character. I didn't like what they did with her in the first season though, they made her far too difficult to sympathize with, more villain than vigilante.

Helena's fighting skills have always been impressive, but never the the point of BC's. Yet BC could outfight Ollie blindfolded, but...not in this show. Headliner always has to be the best, eh? =/

At any rate, I'm glad BC beat her but not because I like BC better or think Huntress needs to be put in her place, but because that's just the natural order of things. Huntress fights through grit, will, and determination. She cannot be stopped. Even Lady Shiva has been impressed by her inventiveness and drive. But she's always competing above her weight class and it regularly gets her in trouble. It's part of the appeal of the character. She doesn't care that she's outclassed (or at least doesn't let it cow her) and sometimes the arrogance of her opponents gives her all the opening she needs. That said, she's no pushover. Not by a long shot.*

So...yay for Huntress!

yeah. She's not the problem i had with the episode, she seemed completely fine.

It wasn't a great episode, but it wasn't because it had problems so much as it didn't have anything amazing in my opinion. (I quite enjoyed the BC/Huntress fights though)

Also if next week isn't a reason to have Malcolm fight Slade then I don't know what will be. The TV would explode if that were to happen.

Can they just think about the dialog they write for Laurel? It so overwrought. They need to cut down heavily on what she says. Every time she talks its more like the beginning "Last time on Arrow' segment.

@comicstooge: @cheesesticks:

I didn't want to imply that there is anything wrong with talking about who you find attractive, but I think its a bit disingenuous to spend time talking about who's hotter. It's an opinion, and contributes nothing to the discussion about the episode. Personally I feel that that kind of discussion is unwelcoming to diversity in the media. It contributes to the idea that female characters are eye candy even when a story is being serious. There are times when people are presented as eye candy, and I don't think this is one.

I don't t mean to sound feminist, there is definitely a double standard. Females talk about who they find attractive too. I'm sure when females watch The Vampire Diaries there is a lot of discussion about which male is more attractive. But, if I wanted to talk about an episode of Vampire Diaries and a bunch of the posts are just about who's hotter I would be annoyed.

An all out shirtless training session with Ollie, Diggle, and Roy is sure to bring up the same discussion of who's hotter right?

And to stay on topic:

Laurel and Thea better start putting some damn clues together. I don't see the benefit of Oliver and Sara keeping secrets from their families. It's time they stopped hiding so that they can move past the part of the show where characters are constantly saying "I gotta go."

Well, I wouldn't really care. I would simply ignore the discussion. And don't tell me we contribute to the idea of female character as eye candy when the show himself are dressing them to show their boobs and their ass. Just google the naem of Sarah actress in google images and you'll see that I don't think she cares.

I really want Huntress's character to be likable. In her first episodes the writers tried really hard to make her seem like an anti-villain rather than an anti-hero. Is it asking too much that some characters on the show be more practical about who they need to kill in order to get things done? I like the idea of the Huntress, but I don't like what they've done so far. This episode seems like they are improving Huntress's character though.

When Ollie first saw Slade in the present he immediately tried to kill Slade. Now, imagine in a future scene where Ollie has a chance to kill Slade and he hesitates. That would be a very convenient hesitation for the sake of the writers and it would be inconsistent with what Ollie did before. Characters like Huntress are there so that other characters occasionally die.

I'm tired of them arguing about killing. All of their lives are in danger. And after spending all those years on the island both Sara and Ollie should know its either kill or be killed.

The Roy-Thea relationship was handled poorly. Roy should be there to protect Thea. In fact, Arrow needs a "tank" more than ever now that Slade is actively attacking them. I'm disappointed with that one.

Huntress shouldn't have been able to spar with Sara for any length of time. Huntress is not a trained fighter, Sara is. I'm glad Sara clearly won that fight though. I wonder how they will handle Roy and his lack of training. It would be bad writing if Roy suddenly becomes an expert marksman so perhaps Arrow will have a different version of "Red Arrow"

Tell me about it. One of the worst things of any comment thread is when people decide to spend time talking about who's "hotter" as if that is a point of pertinent discussion. It's really annoying.

Haha, I was mostly teasing him, but I kinda agree with you. I'm sure there are perv threads that can be made for such conversations.

@mapuia_ralte: I know right. My dream is broken :(.

But I was certain that everyone hated Sarah. Well, no wonder I had a crazy GF in the past. I find Helena (Jessica) far more attractive.

@neon_jackal: I am more of a dark hair fan and cannot stand blond most of the times, but Sarah is very good looking. The only thing that brings her looks down is the Mr. Burns like "overbite of death" she has going on. I am not very nit picky when it comes to looks, but I hate giant overbites. It makes the most beautiful person look dumb like a rock. Man, I hate people who attack others because of their looks, but I needed to get this out. Sorry. Sarah is still a sexy lady.

Oh yeah, Helena is hot too. She is pretty much my type of girl.

My Thoughts:

1. Laurel knows that it's Sara a.) she knows that a bunch of crazy assassins kidnapped their mother over Sara b.) Sara's chin is hard to get over, and the horrible domino mask does nothing to hide her identity

2. Felicity is HILARIOUS.: "I think you should kick Helena's ass" (along with Digg's head nod)

3. Helena was set up to come back as an anti-villain. Breaking out of jail will be nothing for someone with her skills. Speaking of her "skills", either Ollie is the BEST teacher in the world, or Helena has done some training on her own. There is NO way that she can be that good based off a few weeks training with Ollie, I mean look at Roy's skill set (or lack thereof)

4. Slade is going to make Ollie choose between Thea and Sara, Sara sacrifices herself for Thea, Laurel becomes the Black Canary.

5. Not THIS would make for great TV: Slade kidnaps Thea, right? Who's Thea's father? Malcolm Merlyn teams up with Team Arrow to kick Slade's behind.

SIdenote: Umm, Quentin definitely knocked out the SWAT dude to keep him from taking out Ollie. I'm assuming that the SWAT leader ranks hire than a beat cop, so isn't that striking a superior officer? Won't he have to answer for that? Especially, since the reason that he was demoted in the first place was because he helped out the "Arrow".
