Synopsis for "Homecoming"

In the present day, Black Canary and Arsenal split up, as Canary believes she has a lead on where Green Arrow may end up, leaving Arsenal to continue the search for Amanda Waller with Cheshire. Canary tells Arsenal to stay in contact with Oracle and not to trust Cheshire, but after Canary leaves Jade tells Roy that he will need to trust her if they are going to survive.

Oliver Queen falls through time, his life flashing before his eyes; when he suddenly emerges at a circus, which he remembers visiting a few months after he first got off the island. The arrow in his chest disappears and the wound miraculously heals. The impostor appears behind him and tells Oliver that he will hound and fight him through all of reality now that he knows the truth, but Oliver says he is done with this. He grabs a taser arrow from the impostor's quiver and uses it to short out the device in his neck. By doing this he catapults himself into the Timestream, and grabs the impostor to take him with him. The impostor yells that, with the device destroyed, they are trapped.

The impostor reveals his true identity: the presumed dead Malcolm Merlyn, alive but heavily scarred and with extensive cybernetics. As they cannot escape the Timestream, he decides to just murder Oliver while he is still incapacitated by the taser. Just as he is about to shoot Oliver he is knocked off his feet by an explosive arrow, fired by Connor Hawke. Connor tells Oliver they need to leave immediately, and Merlyn smugly tells Oliver that he will eventually escape the Timestream and come back to hurt Oliver's family when he least expects him. Oliver grabs Connor's bow and decides to kill Merlyn once and for all, but Connor asks him to spare Merlyn's life, and after a moment's hesitation Oliver agrees. Merlyn shoots at them and Connor dives in front of the arrow to save Oliver, but Lian also swoops in and catches it. The three of them exit the Timestream together, leaving Merlyn stranded outside time.

Oliver wakes up on a beach and assumes he's been left alone again, but then sees Black Canary on the beach. They run to each other and kiss, and Lian and Connor walk out of the jungle to join them. Canary reveals they're on Starfish Island and she has a plane to take them home. Lian suddenly realises Roy isn't with them and asks where her dad is.

Elsewhere, Cheshire leads Arsenal to one of Amanda Waller's safehouses where she keeps the "Network", a Dark Web information-gathering apparatus that they can use to track Lian. When they find the Network however, Roy notices that the technology doesn't look like Waller's usual equipment and realises that she is monitoring every superhero on Earth. They hear a click and Cheshire pushes Roy out of the way of a hail of bullets and is shot. Roy turns to face their attacker but is gunned down himself. Their attackers are revealed to be Waller, Peacemaker and Peacewrecker.
