Once again, the flashbacks have been a rather boring and overlong part of the show. There's probably some story worth telling there, but the story gets broken up into so many tiny, insignificant chunks where almost nothing happens that they become little more than an irritating distraction.

Reiter is back for Oliver, while Taiana has always been feeling the effects of the idol, and it seems unlikely that either of the magic-possessed characters will be making it off the island alive. Then there's the connection between Reiter and Darhk, and the matter of how the idol passed into the latter's hands.
