Arrow - Season 3, Episode 05: The Secret Origin of Felicity Smoak
Trailer
Can the arrow ever been the ordinary Oliver Queen again? just when he thought the battle against crime has been minimized to the lowest level, a new enemy is born.
The episode takes a character that could have been a one-off joke and turned her into a three-dimensional figure whose great power was her ability to raise a good daughter.
"The Secret Origin Of Felicity Smoak" is another strong entry for the season, mostly because it remains so difficult to resist the charms of a Felicity-centric episode.
The nice thing about getting to explore Felicity's origins beyond what we've heard in exposition, was to see that the character always had something of a heroically badass streak.
The writers manage to make a Felicity-heavy installment without it feeling like blatant fan pandering... If it weren't obvious already, this entry makes it clear that Felicity is one of the best characters on TV.
