Arrow Season 4: 9 Characters Who Need To Die
5. Lyla Michaels
With Lyla an A.R.G.U.S. agent and Diggle working for Team Arrow, you could see why things might struggle to work between them. The job is too demanding and carries way too many risks.
However, they managed to find a way to get past that, and now they have not only had a baby together but completed the reunion by remarrying. It was a happy ending to their love story. Which is why it probably isn’t going to last.
Lyla has already been used as a pawn against Diggle once, which has led to a major wedge being driven between him and Oliver. With H.I.V.E. set to play a huge part in his storyline in Season 4, there is a chance that his family will be targeted yet again.
Diggle has been too often cast to the sidelines in Arrow over the past season or so, basically since he became a father, and the show needs to get him back helping Oliver on the frontline as soon as possible. The producers have already revealed he’s going to be wearing a costume next year, but it wouldn’t be surprising if they decided his story needed more tragedy to it, and for that to happen it’d be Lyla - stopping short of suggesting baby Sara dies, I’m not a total monster! - who has to go.
