"Arrow" is back to protect Star City. In the fifth season premiere that aired on Wednesday, October 5, Oliver Queen struggled to juggle being the mayor of Star City and a vigilante. [SPOILER ALERT!] Oliver initially refused Felicity's idea to bring in some new recruits, hoping that he could get the old team back together.
Felicity then reminded Oliver of Laurel's last words. "Please don't let me be the last Canary. That way, a part of me will always be out there with you," she said on her deathbed. By the end of the episode, Oliver finally agreed to add new members after having a conversation with Dig, who said it's a "good idea" to rebuild the team.
Next week, Oliver begins the training for the new recruits, Curtis (Echo Kellum), Wild Dog (Rick Gonzalez) and Evelyn Sharp (Madison McLaughlin). Unfortunately, the Green Arrow's training methods prove to be too much for some of them to handle.
But when the Star City is under threat of a terrorist attack, Thea suggests that it's time to test Green Arrow's new team. Meanwhile, in the flashbacks, Oliver's initiation into the Bratva continues.
"The Recruits" airs Wednesday, October 12 at 8/7c on The CW.
