Slade enlisted Oliver’s help to find his son in Arrow‘s “Deathstroke Returns,” but he was in for a surprise when he finally tracked him down. Meanwhile, back in Star City, Vigilante’s identity was finally revealed, and it should have been no surprise that it was someone thought to be dead.

If it’s on TV — especially if it’s a procedural or superhero show — chances are Meredith watches it. She has a love for all things fiction, starting from a young age with ER and The X-Files on the small screen and the Nancy Drew books.
