Trivia / Arrow S 5 E 15 Fighting Fire With Fire

• Recycled Script: In this season of Arrow, the Big Bad is a masked villain who is ultimately revealed to be a "friend" and "ally" to the protagonist. While this premise is new to Arrow, it's already been done twice on Arrow's spin-off, The Flash.
  • What's especially funny is that the season of The Flash concurrent with this season of Arrow is actually pulling the same trope that Arrow did last year; so in a way, the two shows have swapped plots.
