Check out new photos and synopsis for the upcoming second episode of 'Arrow' titled "The Candidate". The Season hasn't even started yet but we've got the details for what's too come when the episode airs October 14th (later for us here in the UK). Take a look through the snaps below plus the official episode description.

When an old family friend, Jessica Danforth (guest star Jeri Ryan), tells Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Thea (Willa Holland) that she is going to run for mayor, both Queens are concerned considering the last three mayors have been murdered. Despite their protests, Jessica makes her announcement so the Green Arrow and Speedy vow to protect her. Meanwhile, Thea begins to exhibit effects from the Lazarus Pit. In addition, Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) is faced with a tough business decision and looks to one of her employees, Curtis Holt (guest star Echo Kellum), for help. John Behring directed the episode written by Marc Guggenheim & Keto Shimizu (#402).

 

After the finale of Season 3 Oliver Queen overcame a the League of Assassins, defeated arch-nemesis Ra's Al Ghul and rescued his city from certain doom. Queen then made a choice to hang up the hood and leave for a 'normal' life with Felicity Smoak, leaving the rest of team Arrow to continue what he started. Now a new threat emerges that needs Oliver to return as the new and improved Green Arrow.

Arrow season 4 will premiere in October on Sky 1 here in the UK.
