‘Arrow’ season 3, episode 13 preview: ‘Canaries’ to feature Caity Lotz, Katie Cassidy

More news -The moment that you heard that the title for next week’s “Arrow” episode was “Canaries,” you probably figured that we were talking about more than one iteration of the character. Otherwise, we would be thinking that someone over in production needed a serious grammar lesson.

While the return of Caity Lotz as Sara Lance is worth noting, remember that it is not like the character will be rising up from the ground, back from the dead. Instead, the story for her is going to revolve more around Laurel undergoing a vertigo-infused dream where she finds herself doing battle with an imaginary version of her sister. This story sounds quite a bit like Scarecrow, but since it sounds fairly cool, we’re not going to complain that much about it. Instead, let’s just go ahead and share the official synopsis below courtesy of The CW:

“Oliver (Stephen Amell) is thrown by the changes within Team Arrow. He’s used to calling the shots but sees that the team has evolved in his absence and tensions quickly escalate in the lair. Oliver is furious that Laurel (Katie Cassidy) has been going out as the Black Canary and tells her to stop risking her life, but when Vertigo (guest star Peter Stormare) hits the streets again, Laurel goes against Oliver’s wishes and tracks down Vertigo who hits her with a full dose of the drug. Laurel’s biggest fears revolve around her sister Sara (guest star Caity Lotz) so the Vertigo causes her to hallucinate an epic fight between Canary and Black Canary. Meanwhile, Chase (guest star Austin Butler) surprises Thea (Willa Holland), and Roy (Colton Haynes) warns Thea to stay away from Malcolm (John Barrowman).”

Obviously, many things are going to be different for Oliver in this episode, and while things have certainly been crazy so far, it is only going to get so much more intense from here on out.
