![]() ![]() With these pain points in mind, the team evaluated technologies that could help solve them. In mid 2019, CEO Mark Mullen and his team took a big step in Atom’s modernisation journey by selecting Thought Machine as their core banking partner, leading to deployment of Vault Core on Google Cloud Platform. Atom’s journey towards truly cloud native banking would be twofold: they would migrate their existing applications, accounts and services onto Vault Core, and use it to bring new products to the market. Since deploying Vault Core, Atom has launched an instant savings account with powerful features in a refined new design.Tonight's episode title, "The Return", could refer to a number of things: Oliver Queen's post-island return to Starling City in the past, his return to Lian Yu in the present, or perhaps a return of a worthy adversary in the unforeseen future. ![]() Opening up tonight's hour is a fun little brother-sister stick fight, but not the kind you probably had as a kid. Replace these training sticks with sharpened blades and you're in for one hell of a fight. Oliver and Thea get to share in some campfire stories, martial arts training, and peaceful nights asleep out in the island air. At this point, it dawns on Oliver that perhaps he should check on the prisoner he left marooned on the island many episodes ago: the one and only Deathstroke ( Manu Bennett). Surprise, surprise, Slade Wilson has flown the coop, killing his A.R.G.U.S. guard and leaving him dead on the cot as a decoy. Oliver remembers Slade's last words to him - ya know, the ones about killing everyone he holds dear - and rushes back to Thea. Thea's safe - for the moment - and Oliver tells her that he imprisoned Slade on the island and that he's escaped. Oliver gets a call from his new mentor, Malcolm Merlyn, who let Deathstroke free in order for Oliver and Thea to reawaken their killer instincts, or die trying. ![]() They visit Robert Queen's grave on the island to retrieve a weapons cache Ollie stocked there. He gets the drop on the Queens, and leaves them unconscious in the same prison Slade has occupied for months. Slade uses this opportunity to gloat over his captives and to play more mind games regarding the deaths of Shado and Moira Queen. He leaves them to their own devices for a while, and the Queens' own unshared secrets start to make their captivity even uglier. Oliver sidesteps Thea's questions about his past when he realizes that the prison cell "was made for men. fully grown men" and gets Thea to press the conveniently placed cell door-release switch (after dislocating her shoulder, of course). The Queens' little camping trip comes to an early end and they head home. Ollie gets Thea to promise that she won't tell Laurel about the truth behind Sara's death, or about Malcolm's hand in it. Thea takes her father to task, not for unleashing Slade upon them, but for making her kill Sara. ![]() She agrees to be his student, his partner, and his soldier, but refuses to be his daughter. Waller briefs Oliver and Maseo on China White's arrival in the country in order to auction off her half of the bioweapon. She plans on meet up with Peter Kang, a wealthy business man and family friend of the Queen's. This is exactly why Waller needs them both alive. (Though who exactly is the superior she mentions?) Oliver and Maseo track Kang, but it's the former's job to access the CEO's computer directly. Having returned to Starling City for the first time in years, Ollie's emotionally taken aback when he spies a somewhat grown-up Thea in her school uniform. Rather than following Kang, they follow Thea instead she pays her respects at Oliver's grave, but also gets a drug fix from her dealer who meets her there. Luckily, Tommy Merlyn ( Colin Donnell) busts onto the scene to chase the dealer away. It's one of the more heavy-handed flashback scenes this season, but I appreciate that they're trying to heighten the emotional tension between Ollie and Thea in the present.īack to the task at hand, Oliver runs a program on Kang's computer at Queen Consolidated, and almost gets busted. ![]()
