Arrow: 10 Questions We Need Answered Before The End Of Season 4

10. Is Captain Lance's Career Over?

Quentin Lance has really become the heart of the series, but that doesn’t excuse the multiple infractions he’s made as a police officer. It started with his testimony against Damien Darhk, in which implicated himself in criminal activities. Then, while suspended, he assaulted the lieutenant so that Green Arrow could break into the prison. Realistically, that doesn’t bode well for him returning.

But on top of the logistics, it's unclear if he would even want to go back to being a police officer. He’s just lost a daughter, again, and may be in no state of mind to take up something like this. He’s had serious health problems as a result of this kind of stress and maybe it’s time for Lance to put his uniform away for good.

Of course, if he’s no longer a cop, what is he meant to do? Considering the amount of time he’s spent hanging around with Team Arrow, it could certainly be a realistic scenario where he becomes an official part of their headquarters.

No matter the outcome, Lance is too important a character in this show to not give him some clear direction as he emerges from this trying time.
