’Arrow’ 5.04 ‘Penance’ Review: Operation Save Diggle

In the past few weeks of Arrow, the Green Arrow has been occupied assembling and training his new team. This week it was all about saving a member of his former team as Oliver and Lyla head out to break John Diggle out of military prison.

After revealing to Rory last week that she was partly responsible for the destruction of Havenrock, he decides to depart the team. But with the team members finding out that Oliver is going to break Diggle out of prison, a conflict occurs between the newbies and their green leader. In the flashbacks this week, Oliver gets his next test by Anatoly and the Bratva, which will take Oliver a step closer to finding Kovar. He gets himself arrested by Russian police and ends up in the same cell as one of Kovar’s lackeys to try and get information out of him.

While Oliver is gone on his mission, Tobias Church is going after SCPD’s Anti-Crime Unit and with the Green Arrow MIA from Star City, it was up to the newbies. With Rory and Felicity coming to an understanding, he returns to the team and helps the rest of the team out with stopping Church. But unfortunately, one member is left behind and now being held captive by Church.
