As usual, Arrow is going out one a strong not. “Missing” finds a way to remove Oliver from his team but not by pushing them away. Adrian Chase has Oliver right where he wants him and is forcing Oliver to confront his demands and the type of man he wants to be.

Black Siren returns to give Chase help; Felicity plans a birthday party for Oliver; Lance is angry with Rene for missing the custody hearing about his daughter.
