Week 5: Arrow

I hope you’re all well. This week on SpockSoc we’ll be continuing with Season One of Arrow.

The series follows Oliver Queen, billionaire playboy of Starling City, who spends five years stranded on an island following a shipwreck that claims the life of everyone else on board, including his father. Upon his return to Starling City, he is reunited with his mother, Moira, and her new husband, Walter, the former CFO of his father’s company who is now the CEO.  During the day, Oliver plays the billionaire playboy; at night, he becomes a green-hooded vigilante, following through with his father’s dying wishes to right the wrongs of the Queen family, fight the ills of society, and restore Starling City to its former glory.

We’re two screenings into the first season at this point- there have already been plenty of plots, betrayals, and terrible decisions. We’ll have a short recap before the screening to try to get everyone up to speed.
