Arrow Season 4: 8 Theories For Who's In The Grave

1. Quentin Lance

From these early episodes, the signs mostly point towards Quentin Lance being the one in the grave. He's a main character, but exists outside of the Team Arrow bubble. He is constantly in the line of danger, and performs heroic actions, but has no real powers or enhanced abilities compared to the other heroes on the show. And, most worryingly, he's working with Damien Darhk. So far the show has seen him attempting an uneasy alliance with Oliver, and outright working against him to have him arrested. There''s an argument to be made there that not much else can be done with him to fit the main storyline, and he's also had a lot happen within the relationships with his daughters. The series hasn't been afraid to kill off the parent characters, so you'd imagine they're prepared to kill him off if they want, while it wouldn't impact the show as much as a member of Team Arrow dying. The only sticking point is that grave scene. Would Captain Lance's death really drive Oliver to wanting to kill the man responsible? It seems unlikely at this stage, and why aren't Laurel and Sara remaining by his grave instead of Ollie? I guess we'll find out for certain in, oh, six months or so... Who do you think is in the grave? Who do you want it to be? Let us know in the comments.
