On Arrow Season 2 Episode 15 - titled "The Promise" - Oliver, Slade and Sara prepare to take control of the freighter from Ivo.
Unknown to Slade, Sara talks Oliver into killing Ivo to ensure Slade never learns the truth about what happened to Shado.
In the present day, Oliver is shocked to learn that Slade is alive and well, living in Starling City and in his living room in the Queen mansion!

Who is the poor soul that Slade getting ready to rain down with pain on "The Promise?"

It looks like Ivo has Oliver in a pretty fragile position in that chair. Overbearing. "The Promise"
8. The Butcher Looms over Oliver
![](https://tv-fanatic-res.cloudinary.com/iu/s--RgJJ7Wkv--/t_slideshow/cs_srgb,d_tv-fanatic-placeholder-square.png,f_auto,fl_strip_profile.lossy,q_auto:420/v1393372210/the-butcher-looms-over-oliver.jpg)
Exactly what will a man named The Butcher take from Oliver while he's in that chair? I guess we'll find out on "The Promise."

When you've seen a living ghost in you own home, you'll look like this too. "The Promise"
10. Moira Greeting Slade
![](https://tv-fanatic-res.cloudinary.com/iu/s--LOuO3H5_--/t_slideshow/cs_srgb,d_tv-fanatic-placeholder-square.png,f_auto,fl_strip_profile.lossy,q_auto:420/v1393372356/moira-greeting-slade.jpg)
Isn't this an odd moment? Moira kindly greeting Slade Wilson?!? It's coming up on "The Promise."
11. Mansion Stare Down
![](https://tv-fanatic-res.cloudinary.com/iu/s--Ern6aqOu--/t_slideshow/cs_srgb,d_tv-fanatic-placeholder-square.png,f_auto,fl_strip_profile.lossy,q_auto:420/v1393372416/mansion-stare-down.jpg)

Thea doesn't look impressed with Slade in "The Promise." There are a lot of things that won't impress her if she knew about them.
13. Moira Campaigning with Slade
![](https://tv-fanatic-res.cloudinary.com/iu/s--IxqDec2p--/t_slideshow/cs_srgb,d_tv-fanatic-placeholder-square.png,f_auto,fl_strip_profile.lossy,q_auto:420/v1393372552/moira-campaigning-with-slade.jpg)
The only logical explanation for this situation is that Slade took the opportunity of Moira's candidacy to open the door and make himself known on "The Promise."
14. Roy Meets Slade
![](https://tv-fanatic-res.cloudinary.com/iu/s--_mrsX9E2--/t_slideshow/cs_srgb,d_tv-fanatic-placeholder-square.png,f_auto,fl_strip_profile.lossy,q_auto:420/v1393372653/roy-meets-slade.jpg)
Is this when Slade becomes impressed with Oliver's formidable opponent? "The Promise"
15. Roy Walking Away

Roy looks a little peeved at his buddies in the Arrow Cave, doesn't he? Did meeting Slade have anything to do with this? "The Promise"
16. Sara Looks Worried about Roy
![](https://tv-fanatic-res.cloudinary.com/iu/s--lYfo6LqK--/t_slideshow/cs_srgb,d_tv-fanatic-placeholder-square.png,f_auto,fl_strip_profile.lossy,q_auto:420/v1393372972/sara-looks-worried-about-roy.jpg)
Sara looks very concerned about Roy as he walks off. What happened in the cave? We'll find out on "The Promise."
17. Diggle's Concern Betrays Him
![](https://tv-fanatic-res.cloudinary.com/iu/s--N8pzEjTj--/t_slideshow/cs_srgb,d_tv-fanatic-placeholder-square.png,f_auto,fl_strip_profile.lossy,q_auto:420/v1393373029/diggles-concern-betrays-him.jpg)
You can't miss the look of concern on Diggle's face, either. Things are getting rough in the Cave on "The Promise."
