Arrow Season 4: 12 Big Questions After 'Beacon Of Hope'

3. How Will Darhk Get Out Of Prison?

Despite having a (presumably) magic ring in his possession (something that isn't addressed at all this week) Darhk is still behind bars, in handcuffs, and unable to escape. 

While he may be starting to get a run of things in prison, as evidenced by his control over Murmur, the fact remains that there's only so much he can do from jail, and plans are moving forward without him. 

It seems unthinkable that he will spend the rest of the season in jail, because, well, it'd make no sense to have that wrapped up with five episodes still to go this season, especially when he's the supposed big bad. So how exactly will he escape? And when he does, just what will he do? Is he going to be gunning for the people who put him there, resume his rivalry with Green Arrow, or try to take back control at H.I.V.E.? 

Knowing Darhk, it's probably all three.
