Arrow Season 4: 18 WTF Moments From 'Unchained'

11. Shado Returns

Not content with bringing Roy Harper back into the fold, Unchained carried on its shocking returns by also bringing back Shado. Killed during Season 2 and sparking the descent into madness of Slade Wilson, Shado has occasionally visited Oliver in hazy hallucinations, not to mention the fact that she conveniently has a twin sister who Ollie met over in Hong Kong. With Ollie being tortured on Lian Yu, it was a huge WTF moment to see Baron Reiter end up with an arrow through his chest. Even more shocking was when it was revealed to have been fired by the long-dead Shado. Of course, in the age-old TV tradition now, this was all revealed to be a dream brought on by the torture endured by Oliver.
