You can probably guess from the title that this week’s new episode is all about Emily Bett Rickards’ character Felicity Smoak.

Rickards recently opened up to TV Line about her breakup with Stephen Amell’s Oliver Queen:

“That was one of the best moments. As an actor, you’re just like, ‘Yes. This is what I live for. This destruction, this release.’ It’s therapeutic in a way. I really like working with those scenes where you get to take moments, because we work fast all the time. Having the chance to take a moment in a scene is very appreciated by me as an actor.”

Speaking of breakups, this week’s episode also introduces us to Glee’s Nolan Funk as Felicity’s college boyfriend, as Rickards previews:

“We get to see him in his college years, and we get to see Felicity in love. We get to see young college love and that whole game.”
