"Suicide Squad"

AMANDA WALLER SENDS THE SUICIDE SQUAD OUT ON THEIR FIRST MISSION - Following Slade's (Manu Bennett) return and his promise to make good on his threat to destroy Oliver's (Stephen Amell) loved ones, Oliver focuses all his energy on preparing for battle with his former friend. Sarah (Caity Lotz) tries to help but, fearing for her safety, Oliver pushes her away. Meanwhile, Diggle (David Ramsey) is recruited by Amanda Waller (guest star Cynthia Addai-Robinson) and A.R.G.U.S. to stop a warlord (guest star Lee Majdoub) he knew from his time in Afghanistan. Always the solider, Diggle agrees to help. However, he's not prepared when Amanda introduces him to the rest of the team - Deadshot (guest star Michael Rowe), Bronze Tiger (guest star Michael Jai White) and Shrapnel (guest star Sean Maher), all criminals he and Arrow helped put away. Lyla (guest star Audrey Marie Anderson) defends the team and explains the world is a complicated place, but Diggle isn't sure he agrees. When the mission takes a dangerous turn, Diggle is forced to make a difficult decision.

Larry Teng directed the episode written by Keto Shimizu & Bryan Q. Miller (#216).

Here are the promo pics for ep 2x16:

good trailer.
Dont care for the suicide squad, would rather focus be on slade.

Well saw this last night and it was good, but no slade !!
The more I see caty the less I like her, as a romance, her and ollie is just 0 on a scale of 1-10.
Laurel is looking a little better.
Felicity looked real good when she brought Diggle the coffee?
I dont like the attitude of the woman running SS I mean these guys have value and work for free, so expendable on a whim is quite stupid.
They blow up sean, and then were going to use deadshot to aim the drone attack ?? LOL
they better get some more squad members they are dropping fast.

Any word on summer? she quit or just get written out?

and yeah I think that was tommy in POI 217

1) Yep, good ep, especially because finally Diggle got some decent sreen time. I hope this will be more often the case instead of wasting too much time with some lame one-time villains.
2) Come on, seriously?? I for one like her a lot, she's the perfect Black Canary and kicks ass. Other than you I also think she's just the right one for Ollie.
3) Does she? Anyways, as I said, she should go on rehab, so maybe she could be back in season 4 ...
4) Of course she did. When ever didn't she? She's the sunhine of the show ...  
5) Actually it was totally ridiculous how they killed off Shrapnel (Sean Maher). Why even bother him to "guest star"?? What a waste ...  
6) Actually there might be good news for you ... see the 2x18 thread ... 
7) I knew it ...
