‘Arrow’ Season 5 Spoilers: New Trailer Teases Felicity’s Rogue Side
Felicity Smoak isn’t just a follower. Throughout “Arrow” Season 5, the tech goddess has been straying from Oliver’s team, and a new trailer makes it seem like they’re on very different sides in the final five episodes of the season.
Around the 1:15 mark in the video (seen above), we see Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) conflicting with Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Diggle (David Ramsey). When Dig says he thought they were on the same team, Felicity clarifies, “No John, I’m on the team that’s going to put Chase away.”
It looks like Overwatch will only get more involved with hacktivist group Helix in the final episodes of “Arrow” Season 5. Felicity even seems to be getting Oliver into trouble with some sort of laser grid. Dressed in all black, Felicity seems like she might be trapping her ex there. “I’m sorry,” she tells Ollie.

However, it seems like not everything is bad between Oliver and Felicity on the CW drama. In one scene at the 1:32 mark, they’re getting awfully close. Felicity appears to be in Oliver’s lap and leaning in for a kiss. Olicity shippers will have to hope it’s not a flashback.
They seem to be heading for conflict about their work together, but “Arrow” will explore the status of both Felicity and Oliver’s professional and romantic relationships when it returns. “Oliver and Felicity, whatever happened between them in between our fourth and our fifth season, and the reason that they have been where they are right now throughout the course of the season, we get a chance to explain it,” Amell told Entertainment Weekly of Season 5, episode 20.
Executive producer Marc Guggenheim revealed that something in the first episode back, Season 5, episode 19, will force Oliver and Felicity to sit down for a serious discussion. “This is definitely an examination of the state of their breakup,” Guggenheim told TVLine. “It comes out of the events of 519 [titled ‘Dangerous Liaisons’] and, quite frankly, all the other episodes that led up to it. Something happens in 519 that really tees up this conversation.”
“Arrow” Season 5 returns Wednesday, April 26 at 8 p.m. EDT on The CW.
