'The Arrow' season 3 spoilers: Arrow reveals identity to Lance and Palmer

By the time "The Arrow" resumes, many would be eagerly awaiting on whether Olive Queen (Stephen Amell) accepts the offer of Ra's al Ghul or not to be the new leader of the League of Assassins.

Apparently this is where the last episode left us, along with questions on what would happen between Thea (Willa Holland) and Nyssa (Karina Law) after Thea admits to killing Sara.

Then there was that sequence wherein Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh) was able to try out the A.T.O.M. exo-suit which could hint at the rumoured coming of the Atom.

Speaking of Palmer, the Hollywood Reporter bares that he would be one of two characters who would learn about Queen's true identity. The other one who will learn about the Arrow's real identity is Captain Lance (Paul Blackthorne). It should be interesting how these would turn out but it could happen if one or more of them get into trouble at some part of the episode.

Back to Queen, a decision has to be made and Ra's al Ghul will surely be waiting. Would he accept?

Amell offers some clarifications on what the potential answer would be and frankly the reply is not surprising. According to Amell, the offer is by name only and is not really an offer but a demand.

The thing is if that Queen refuses, there would be dire consequences and it could be another duel between Queen and Ra's al Ghul.

Aside from the fact that 'The Offer' (which incidentally is the title of the upcoming episode) seems a bit fishy, Amell adds that Queen will eventually realize that he hasn't done much yet to help Starling City.

Hence if that were the case, how could he eventually end up leading the League of Assassins? And apparently that is what leads Queen to believe that there are certain strings attached to the offer.
