Warning: Possible spoilers
Moira Queen was killed by Slade Wilson on the latest episode of Arrow. In an attempt to replicate the agony he is going through because Oliver Queen chose Black Canary's life over Shadow, Deathstroke make Oliver decide who lives, either his mother or his sister. But instead of Oliver choosing, Moira makes the choice for him. As the mother of both Oliver and Thea, she chooses to sacrifice her own life so that her children might live.
While the episode would have been about Roy's struggle with the effects of the Mirakuru, for me, the episode was really about Moira Queen's character. She may have made poor and questionable choices in the past, but she always looked out for the welfare of her children. This episode would have been perfect for Mother's day, but I guess the timing wouldn't have fit the schedule of the show.
Will this sacrifice bring back the old Arrow who was willing to kill so that justice may be served? Will Oliver avenge Moira's death and kill Slade? The season is winding down. Let's hope it has a spectacular finish. Stay tuned and see how it ends.
