BWW Recap: ARROW Gains a Stalker in 'Draw Back Your Bow'

Relationships hit the skids and ARROW gains a stalker on tonight's ep, "Draw Back Your Bow." Let's dig into the quiver, shall we?

We begin with a flashback to Season two. ARROW is saving Carrie Cutter (aka Cupid, played by Amy Gumenik) from several of Deathstroke's henchmen. She looks up lovingly at her hero/savior and then he is gone.

Back in present day, ARROW (Stephen Amell) and Diggle (David Ramsey) pick up where we left off last week. That is to say the pair retrieve a trio of heart-shaped arrows from the bodies of two cops and last week's villain, Stanzler.

At Queen Consolidated, Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh) stops doing pull-ups shirtless long enough to ask an exasperated Felicity (Emilly Bett Rickards) to dinner. It's a work thing. He's bought a designer dress for her. She accepts if only to keep the dress. I get the sense that Palmer is playing her like a fiddle.

Back at the base, Diggle and Oliver review the evidence. Oliver wonders where Felicity is. Diggle notices her on TV. Ray is holding a press conference and Felicity is by his side. Oliver is a bit jealous and smashes one of the heart-shaped arrows. It uncovers and address on a slip of paper that had been placed in the middle of the arrow head. He and Diggle rush to the address and it is uber creepy. The walls are lined with newspaper articles about ARROW and their are hearts and red candles burning everywhere. Cutter watches from across the street and texts Ollie a photo of her next victim, a mob boss.

At the base, Felicity finally shows up long enough to tell everyone she has a work date. Before she leaves, she tracks down a clue from the photo: there's a bag of fertilizer in it and there's only one florist near Cutter's apartment, so that's where Cutter must be.

Roy (aka Arsenal, played by Colton Haynes) and ARROW suit up and head to the florist. Roy is soon captured and Ollie comes face to face with Cupid. She kicks out the chair that the mob boss is standing on (with a noose around he neck, natch). ARROW quickly fires an one at the rope to cut the guy down, grabs the explosives from the guy's chest and shoots them into the air.

Cupid, it seems, not only has her own secret base, she also has her own male-version of Felicity. The infatuated geek tells her he's pinpointed ARROW's most visited space, the nightclub owned by Ollie's sister Thea (Willa Holland).

Ollie calls Cutter. She's at the club, chatting up Thea and drinking fancy martinis. He offers to meet her where he saved her. She tells him if he crosses her, she'll come back and kill everyone in the club.

They fight. She handcuffs him to a train rail in the path of an approaching train, figuring they will die together and spend all eternity with each other. Ollie contorts his hand to slide out of the cuff and pushes her off the tracks in time to save them both. This makes her love him even more.

Rather than turn her into the police, they turn her over to Amanda Waller. This means we haven't seen the last of Cupid.

And speaking of unrequited love, Diggle tells Ollie he should come clean to Felicity about how he really feels for her. He agrees and heads to her office to tell her. He arrives just in time to see Felicity share a kiss with Ray (her boss).

The final moment: we get our first glimpse of Digger Harkness (aka THE FLASH villain Captain Boomerang, played by Nick Tarabay). He throws a boomerang (what else) which circles back and stabs a guy in the back, killing him. It's clearly setting the stage for the two-night cross over with THE FLASH that will air Dec. 2-3. Color me stoked.

With that, we lay down the bow until next week. Tell us what you think about tonight's episode below and follow me on Twitter @triggercritic and follow @BWWTVWorld for all the latest updates, scoops and recaps.
