Ok, now let’s start
with the plot… Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) loses his father, Robert Queen
(Jamey Sheridan) on the high seas after a violent shipwreck. His longtime
girlfriend Laurel Lance (Katie Cassidy) also loses her sister, Sarah
(Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) in the same accident.
After being
stranded in an island for 5 years, he returns to the city to find his mother
Moira Queen (Susanna Thompson) together with Walter Steele (Colin Salmon). He
finds himself emotionally detached from his mother. His sister, Thea Queen
(Willa Holland) and buddy, Tommy Merlyn (Colin Donnell) are glad to have him
back.
In true Batman Begins style, Oliver starts
gathering his weapons and starts a war on the criminals in Gotham, I mean
Starling City. First on his list is Adam Hunt (Brian Markinson). Oliver manages
to alternatively outwit/strong-arm his bodyguard John Diggle (David Ramsey) to
carry on his vigilante work. Detective Quentin Lance (Paul Blackthorne), father
of Laurel and the deceased Sarah, is on the trail of the new vigilante in his
city.
Meanwhile, Moira is
out to find out what happened on the day of the shipwreck and she is ready to
go to any extent to achieve her goal.
