Also, I'm guessing the suicide squad is generally a bad guy group then? (unfamiliar with any superhero lore, I'm thinking the Suicide Squad was in Smallville though as well?)
Suicide Squad is bad guys being forced to do very dangerous things for the government, but its super villains so the government doesn't have to take credit. They are bad guys doing the governments extremely dangerous/ don't want to be blamed for dirty work, so its kind of hard to pin a description on them.
Easily denied black ops squad. Usually given the craziest of crazy mission. Most of their missions are borderline suicide missions anyways, hence the moniker.
15 people know Oliver's secret identity (Maybe more depending on who else in ARGUS knows) and only 7 are alive (Huntress, Diggle, Felicity, Roy Harper, Amanda Waller, Malcolm Merlyn (not for long if Ra's Al Ghul is after him though) and Sara Lance.)

I'm not aware of that being there however the squad has been written and rewritten multiple times and I am only familiar with the more current incarnations that do not feature something like that.

Also I could watch Sara do that steel bar climb thing 1000 times a day. I actually might since I PVRed it + Show Spoiler +
The salmon ladder makes an appearance ... but it's not Oliver using it: That's right: Someone else takes that piece of equipment for a spin. And according to Kreisberg, the actor who plays the character in question actually did the first two rungs on their own before the stunt double had to step in to do the final rungs. Now that's impressive.
I was assuming a stunt or some form of assistance considering they don't show the full motion but it's nice to see that a girl her size pulled it off on her own

That would be quite the feat. However, her spiral downward since the beginning suggests if anyone is able to do it, it is her.
Ok So arrow is about to enter is full on awesome set of episodes and they dropped this god damn amazing totally epic and bad ass 3 minute trailer I've watched 5 times now. Its on Stephen Amell's facebook page. Youtube has no video yet.
I'm super excited about the next month of arrow. Full on badassery incoming!
New island villain (Dr. Ivo) shows up looking for a super serum. Love triangle forms between Oli, Slade and Shado (Yao Fei's daughter). Slade (moments from death) is injected by the serum and is driven mad but given super powers. Oli, Shado and Sara are captured, island villain (Ivo) makes Oli choose between Sara and Shado. Oli chooses Sara and Shado is shot in the head as a result. Super-Slade appears and kills most of the baddies. Oli and Sara lie about the fact that Shado's death was caused by Oli. Super-Slade is now super mad and hell bent on revenge. Present day Oli hints that the eventual revelation of the truth is the reason for their falling out.
TLDR: Slade fell in love with Shado, who gets killed by Ivo because of Oli choosing to save Sara. Lie of omission makes Slade go mad.
For a former spy some of the camera locations he chose are pretty bad lol.
I wonder if Slade knows that Sarah was with the League of Assassins. He's a pretty smart guy and upon seeing Roy and Sarah in the house knew to retreat.

I hope we find out how Sarah got into the League. A island like flashback specifically showing that would be cool. I'll take any excuse to give Nyssa screen time. That costume was awesome!
Seems like the show has abandoned Tommy Merlyn as a villain by having him be on the run from Ras Al Ghul. Kind of a lame way to get rid of a guy who was the vocal point of a whole season and the reason Moira can run for Mayor.

1. Why are people putting spoiler tabs about stuff that was already shown? 2. Merlyn will be back for sure. Maybe not this season but we will see him. Personally I didn't like him that much, I hope his return will make sense.
