Arrow Season 4: 12 Questions We're Asking After 'Code Of Silence'

10. How Long Has Merlyn Been Involved With Darhk's Plan?

Another interesting point with Malcolm Merlyn this week is that he's sitting at the table with the rest of Darhk's cronies, listening intently to the plans about Phase 4 and so on, as though he has always been a part of it. As far as we're aware, Merlyn only turned to Darhk last week, although they've known each other a lot longer than that. Is it that turned to the, ahem, Darhk Side* that has led to him dining at the top table, or has Merlyn been involved with Genesis for a lot longer than we know of? He's tried to destroy the city himself, so perhaps they can learn from his mistakes. *Also, how great was it when Damien Darhk essentially Force-choked that guy on his screen? More like Darhk Vader, amirite? Anyone?
