Felicity Is Mentioned In A Major Way During 'Arrow's Final Season Premiere Tonight

Emily Bett Rickards might not be on the final season premiere of Arrow tonight, but Felicity will get a major moment on the series.

Felicity is actually mentioned throughout the episode and executive producer Marc Guggenheim shared that there is one scene in particular that is a direct call-out to a classic Felicity and Oliver moment.

“There’s a throwback to Felicity in the season premiere — Emily’s not in it — but there’s a very conscious, and I think funny, acknowledgement of her,” he hinted during an interview with ET.

In “Starling City”, while trying to decipher The Monitor’s (LaMonica Garrett) mission, Oliver (Stephen Amell) returns to Starling City where he encounters familiar faces.

Meanwhile, Mia (Katherine McNamara) and William’s (Ben Lewis) team clash with a new foe.

Arrow‘s final season kicks off TONIGHT, October 15th @ 9PM ET/PT on The CW.
