'Arrow' Season 4 News: Team Arrow Finds Out Secret HIVE Plan; Cupid Returns Episode 16
After dealing with a civil war in the once-peaceful streets of Star City and inciting the fury of Malcolm Merlyn/Dark Archer (John Barrowman) in last week's "Sins of the Father," Oliver Queen/Green Arrow (Stephen Amell) and his team will be dealing with another dangerous threat in this Wednesday's episode of the popular superhero series "Arrow."
According to the teaser for "Code of Silence," Team Arrow will face off against a new group of villains known as The Demolition Team, who arrives in Star City intent on taking down Green Arrow and his friends.

Meanwhile, according to the TV Guide synopsis, Captain Lance (Paul Blackthorne) will begin to think that his new girlfriend, Felicity's mother, Donna (Charlotte Ross), may be safer without him. And with their wedding date drawing closer, Oliver will start to feel guilty about keeping the existence of his estranged son, William (Jack Moore), from his fiancée.
The official plot synopsis for the upcoming episode reads: "Oliver and team uncover HIVE's plan to take out Team Arrow once and for all.
