There is a new vigilante in Star City and he goes by the original name of Vigilante. We all know that Vigilante is DA Adrian Chase and we see a bit of that side of him while he interrogating a bank thief that Oliver mistakes and great intensity in getting the job done in his role as DA.

Vigilante has been around since the season 5 premiere but back then Felicity called him goggles. But Vigilante makes a bigger impact by stopping a human trafficking ring and depositing the ring leaders at SCPD.

Team Arrow grows concerned at Vigilante’s methods, well really it is Oliver, while the rest think getting rid of some low-life’s isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

The next time Vigilante appears it is to stop bank robbers headed by Eric Dunn, a recently paroled from Iron Heights.

Team Arrow start asking around about Vigilante to try and find out who he might be. Another bank robbery draws out Vigilante but also Team Arrow. As mentioned before, one of the bank robbers is captured but Eric Dunn disappears as does Vigilante after Team Arrow failed to stop him.

Since Dunn is a target of Vigilante, the Green Arrow find him at a motel. Dunn professes the first time he was framed but Iron Heights hardened him. Vigilante finds Dunn and opens fire at the motel. The Green Arrow protects and saves Dunn. Later on we see Dunn deposited in front of SCPD.

To lure out Vigilante, Team Arrow decide to rob a bank. It works but unfortunately, Vigilante was expecting this and takes Mr. Terrific hostage to draw out the Green Arrow.

Green Arrow manages to get Terrific free and the two fight. Eventually, the Green Arrow pins down Vigilante. Green Arrow disagrees with his methods. Vigilante counters that Green Arrow’s methods isn’t working and he has done nothing to protect the city. When Green Arrow goes to take off Vigilante’s mask, a flash blows up in his face and Vigilante is gone.

At episode’s end, we learn that Eveylyn/Artemis is a mole within Team Arrow planted by Prometheus. We see the two have a nigh time rendezvous on a rooftop. Evelyn assures Prometheus that Team Arrow doesn’t suspect a thing

I have to say that I am really disappointed at this turn of events as Evelyn really was the only new recruit that I actually liked. I am just not clicking with the recruits and maybe that will change as the season goes on.truly do miss Team Arrow 1.5 that was comprised of Green Arrow, Diggle/Spartan, Felicity/Overwatch, Laurel/Black Canary, Thea/Speedy and even Roy/Arsenal.
