The Ace in the Hole. 

Turns out Darhk still had one up his sleeve, as he presents Merlyn with the card of Andy Diggle. While not exactly the biggest rug-pull they've made, given it's only been a few episodes since Andy came back to Diggle's side and he hasn't been since, it's still enough of an interesting one. 

Does this mean that he's been working with H.I.V.E. all along, simply serving as a mole? Or has someone gotten to him in the past couple of weeks? Either are plausible, as is the idea of him actually being a double agent and working for Team Arrow to infiltrate H.I.V.E. 

Whatever the reason, it's another twist to this story, and brings Merlyn very much back into the mix, while setting up some Diggle drama for next week as well.
