- TriviaThis is the lowest rated episode of the entire series.
- GoofsThe Minuteman Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) heading for Star City is shown in powered flight complete with its initial stage 1 booster attached minutes from detonating. The 1st stage booster is ejected approximately 60 seconds after launch and the powered flight stage is complete by the time the warhead re-enters the atmosphere (after approximately 3 minutes after launch). At the point the ICBM could be seen by the residents of Star City it would be in it's ballistic phase (falling out the sky really fast) meaning Felicity and Curtis would not have been able to redirect it the way they did, the only way to stop it would have been to shoot it down.

Terrible end to a terrible season
After a weak first season, things were looking great when season 2 presented us with a great villain and a new story, full of twists and turns. The flashbacks were relevant and added to the story.
Arrow, (as well as Legends of Tomorrow) has to be the dumbest show on TV. The decisions made by characters are infuriating doltish and cringe-worthy, with the final three episodes being the same story repeated and beaten to death.
Nothing makes me want to scream at the TV more than a Greg Berlanti DC series.
Without listing the tedious amount of examples of bad writing and poor direction in every single episode (and there are many), I can honestly say that I have never seen such moronic writing in a TV series.
Enough with the irrelevant and boring flashbacks! They're done; they no longer serve any purpose other than to completely bring the pacing of the episode to a complete halt when we're forced to sit through 2-3 minutes of a "story" that has no bearing on the main plot and is so far out of ideas that everything that happens in them is repeated every couple of episodes.
I still love this show and I really hope that it lasts for years to come, but it will not end well unless the writers are all fired and replaced with competent show runners who can return this show to the glory of season 2.
