Recent unofficial photos in the set of the hit series "Arrow" tease Felicity's (Emily Bett Rickards) true condition in the second half of season 4.
An Instagram post of celebrity blogger Canadagraphs is currently making rounds on the Internet, where images of Oliver's (Stephen Amell) fiancée show her to be sitting on a wheelchair. Felicity is seen amidst a crowd of people. She is wearing her trademark eyeglasses, a purple dress and gray blazer. Although the photos are a bit blurry, the wheels of the wheelchair can be discerned. This started speculations that perhaps, Felicity's unfortunate run-in with Damien Darhk's (Neal McDonough) minions resulted to her being paralyzed from the waist down.
During the midseason finale, she and Oliver were ambushed by the Ghosts. Darhk sent them to teach the mayoral candidate a lesson he would never forget. While Oliver escaped unscathed, Felicity was not so lucky. She was unconscious by the time her fiancé got her out of the car. The promo for the upcoming episode shows the doctors refusing to tell Team Arrow what is wrong with her. Her mother is also seen crying while Oliver tries to comfort her. It will make sense if Felicity ends up not being able walk. The spoilers point out to her condition taking a turn for the worse.
Meanwhile, showrunner Marc Guggenheim recently teased on what lies ahead in season 4B. He told IGN that while most fans would find some of the plotlines predictable, they were preparing a big shocker that would be seen in episode 15. This has nothing to do with the person in the grave spoilers seen in the recent teasers.
"The back half of the season, we're pretty much following the same structure that we have in seasons past where obviously the Big Bad gears up. That said, we're going to throw a hard six in episode 15 that I think will surprise people We're going to do something that's never been done before on Arrow with the Big Bad. 15 is a real game-changer episode for us," he said.
