In a new exciting season for all, we complete the series with a new set of exciting and action events: It seems that Oliver is forced to ally with an old enemy. In prison, after Oliver surrendered, he will face many challenges and positions, and this may be the biggest challenge, while Felicity will get a very exciting show, and Digley asks Curtis to hide away from Argos. On the other hand, Felicity is trying to find Diaz by any means.

This was a solid episode and did the work it needed to as a premier, but several aspects - including Roy's inclusion - will likely be branded as "surprises" or "twists" even though we've known they were coming since the tail end of season 6.
Something feels different this year. Beth Schwartz is the head of the ship now and, while we have no idea where in the hell it's headed, we're excited to get there.
It is giving the rest of the cast a chance to stake out some of the A-story focus, so hopefully they can continue to find a good balance between those elements moving forward.
It wasn't the best season premiere, but it was good, and the foreshadowing has me intrigued. I'm excited to see what the show has in store for us this season.
