Did any of you call that?

Unfortunately, Talia didnt make it off Lian-Yu unscathed, which is clear from the scars on her face.

But Oliver, believing that WHS has a point about his cycle of violence, refuses.

Theres no Oliver in here.

Talia doesnt care about helping them because theyre criminals, but Olivers time in prison has changed him.

Now, he understands that criminals are, well, people, too, and deserve some consideration.

Thats enough to sway Talia into in agreeing to help him stop Dr. Parker if he helps her escape.

As was the case with Adrian Chase in season 5, theres some nuance in the current situation.

Remember what I said about it being fitting that Talia be here for this?

And Talia remains true to her words.

The Demon wasnt without other interesting developments.

Furthermore, the episode also dug into how traumatized Curtis was from everything that went down last season.
