Arrow Season 4: 12 Questions We're Asking After 'Lost Souls'

12. Why Did Darhk Get So Angry With Captain Lance?

The strange working relationship between Quentin Lance and Damien Darhk has been turned on its head. Rather than being something shocking and mysterious, Team Arrow are now using it to their advantage, with Lance serving as their connection, a mole of sorts, to the villain. They have another interesting chat this week, largely used just so they can find out where Darhk is holding mini-Ray captive. However, while that served the larger plot, there was an noteworthy moment within the chat itself. Lance refers to Darhk's magic as "mumbo jumbo" and it's safe to say he doesn't take particularly kindly to it. The moment may have been approaching anyway, but this especially seems to anger him, as he tells Lance to never summon him again. Does Darhk simply feel annoyed at Lance wasting his time, or is he really angry at the idea of his powers - whatever their exact nature may be (and that itself is another question) - being reduced to 'mumbo jumbo'?
