On Wednesday, May 1, the next episode of CW's Arrow will hit air. Titled 'The Undertaking,' this episode was directed by Michael Shultz and written by Jake Coburn and Lana Cho.
According to official sources, the episode will center around Felicity discovering a transaction in a crooked accountant's records that could help Oliver find Walter. The episode will also feature guest star John Barrowman as Malcom in a flashback to before Oliver was stranded on the island.
The midseason finale revealed that Malcom had been working with Oliver's mother, Moira, on some sort of plot. Many fans assume that the title of the upcoming episode, The Undertaking, is a reference to this, and may reveal some answers as to what the two are planning. So far, we only know it involves the subway system, and will somehow kill a lot of people in Starling City and the Glades. We may also learn a little bit more about why Robert Queen was killed, and the events that led up to Oliver being marooned on the island.
Here is the official CW description if you are interested:
"WITH A LEAD ON WALTER'S WHEREABOUTS, OLIVER GAMBLES ON FELICITY IN THE FIELD - Finding it difficult to mend fences with Tommy (Colin Donnell) and Diggle (David Ramsey), Oliver (Stephen Amell) instead focuses on crossing another name off the list. While digging through a crooked accountant's laptop, Felicity (guest star Emily Bett Rickards) discovers a transaction that could help Oliver find Walter. To reconfirm the lead, Oliver gambles that Felicity can be counted on in the field for the first time. In a flashback, Malcolm (guest star John Barrowman) reveals to Robert Queen (guest star Jamey Sheridan) and Frank Chen (guest star Chin Han) painful details surrounding his wife's murder, and how that shaped his plans for the Glades. Meanwhile, Tommy (Colin Donnell) stuns Laurel (Katie Cassidy) with the truth. Willa Holland and Susanna Thompson also star. Michael Schultz directed the episode written by Jack Coburn & Lana Cho (#121). "
'The Undertaking' will air on CW on May 1.
