Arrow - Season 3 Episode 02: Sara
Crime is down, people feel safer, and Captain Lance even calls off the Anti-Vigilante Task Force. Oliver believes he can finally have a private life and asks Felicity out on a date. But the second Oliver takes his eye off the ball, a deadly villain reappears in Starling, forcing Oliver to realize that he can never be Oliver Queen – not as long as the city needs The Arrow. In Season Three, Oliver faces an even greater threat, when another lethal face emerges from his dark and tortured past – Ra’s Al Ghul!

The action takes a bit of a backseat to the drama in this week's episode, which makes sense considering the shocking conclusion of their season three premiere.

The effort is not entirely successful, but enough of "Sara" works to justify the more meditative storytelling.

The late Sara Lance lends her name to this episode and it feels entirely fitting. Her loss not only overshadows the drama but drives it.

With the sudden and shocking death of Sara Lance last week, fans had to expect a somber episode... [but] Sara's death served as a dramatic jumping-up point for the players of Arrow, characters who fundamentally changed due to the loss of one of their own.
