Oliver's 5 year journey, flashback and present came full circle in the best episode that this show has delivered. As soon as the episode began and with the very first words that we heard was "The name of the island they found me on is Lian Yu. It's Mandarin for purgatory" I knew at that moment that this episode was going to be astounding. The flashbacks this week, particularly and especially Oliver's final minutes on Lian Yu, with the tie-in to the very first episode, should have sent shivers down your spine. It was downright powerful. The fight scenes between not only Oliver and Chase, but Laurel (Siren) and Dinah as well as Nyssa and Talia were executed beautifully. Not to mention the return of the everlasting chemistry between Stephen and Manu. The pieces have all been placed for the return of Arrow in September, and without doubt, the premiere will continue to blow the audience away. "Lian Yu" is not only the most emotional, powerful and incredible episode of the entire series, but an episode that needs to and will be remembered as nothing less than astounding and breathtaking.
