While I’m still on the fence about making William a permanent part of the show, I like that his inclusion has added a new layer to Oliver and Quentin’s relationship, which is one of the most complex on the show. Green Arrow deals with the fallout of the explosion on the island. Sure, Oliver can’t relate to shooting his child, but he does know how it feels to have a very strained relationship with one, which he’s currently having with William. In the Arrow Season 6 Episode 1 premiere titled 'Fallout', Oliver Queen a.k.a. Quentin admits to Oliver that he’s so torn up about leaving Earth-2 Laurel to die on Lian Yu because he realizes all of this “parallel Earth crap is crap.” That’s his daughter, no matter what anyone says. Instead of focusing on Oliver, the camera follows Dinah as she moves around the room, checking in with the other teammates, and once the speech is done, it follows Oliver and Quentin out of the room, because it’s time for some Real Talk. A potentially boring scene in which Oliver gives another speech as mayor is elevated by being shot in one long take. Here’s where Bamford’s great direction really helps spice things up.
