Arrow Season 4: 6 Things The Candidate Got Right (And 4 It Didn't)

1. Got Right - Gravedigging

An upside of the Thea story is that Laurel has gotten involved, and found a way of killing (or should I say reviving?) two birds with one stone. Not only is she going to take Thea back to Nanda Parbat and see if there is a way of helping her, but she sees this as an opportunity to bring her sister back as well. Thanks to Legends of Tomorrow's promo-material we already knew that Sara Lance would be returning, as the White Canary, and that she'd be taking a bath in the Lazarus Pit. I had assumed that it would have something to do with Rip Hunter and time-travel, which would've been cool, but tying Laurel into her resurrection makes sense and should provide some more meat for her own arc. It means that right at the end of the episode her and Thea go and do a little gravedigging. Did we really need to see the corpse of Sara? Maybe not, but it was certainly an effective image, and points to the show going in some pretty interesting directions over the next few weeks.
