- Episode 16 Synopsis:
DC COMICS’ VILLAIN MURMUR SWEEPS INTO STARLING CITY — Still weighed down by his last meeting with Ra’s al Ghul (guest star Matt Nable), Oliver (Stephen Amell) returns home to find a new villain and his crew have started terrorizing Starling City – Michael Amar AKA Murmur (guest star Adrian Glynn McMorran), a man whose mouth has been sewn shut. Meanwhile, Laurel (Katie Cassidy) and Nyssa (guest star Katrina Law) bond over their issues with their fathers and Nyssa make Laurel an offer. Thea (Willa Holland) is forced to come to terms with her father after Oliver brings Malcom (John Barrowman) to the loft to recover, and Lance (Paul Blackthorne) shuts out both Laurel and the Arrow. Dermott Downs directed the episode written by Beth Schwartz & Brian Ford Sullivan (
#316).
So either Ra's hand over Merlyn, which is stupid, or Oliver takes advantage of Ra's's offer and steals Merlyn under his nose. Also I can't wait for more Nyssa, she's a total badass, and now she's Laurel's new trainer. Love it.

- We always knew it was Batman-lite. But what makes this episode any different exactly?
Yes, but there was always that "he's not completely Batman". This episode just makes it full circle. Ra's Al Ghul asks Oliver to be the heir of the League. The worst thing is there is a likely possibility that Batman does indeed exist in this universe. Not only did they have the flash easter egg, but they had Harley and Harley means Joker and Joker means Batman.
