Arrow Season 3 Spoilers: Felicity Speaks Up About Feelings for Oliver

Arrow returns with new episodes for Season 3 on Wednesday, January 21, and Oliver and Felicity's love story will once again take center stage, according to executive producer Andrew Kreisberg.

Kreisberg spoke to TVLine and revealed that Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) will express her feelings when Oliver (Stephen Amell), who is presume dead, returns to Starling City.

"'She speaks up!' Kreisberg told TVLine. 'She definitely speaks up, but not quite in the way I think people are expecting. She has a lot of strong feelings.' (Could EP Marc Guggenheim's tweet, teasing his favorite moment from an upcoming episode - 'I don't want to be a woman you love' - be a bad omen?)"

The scene takes place at the end of Episode 12, and Guggenheim said it's "probably is my all-time favorite Emily Bett performance. She is so, so, so, so incredibly strong in that scene, it's ridiculous."

As for Olicity, "this season is really about them saying all the things they've never said" after two years of "teasing each other," Kreisberg said. "Where that takes them is to some tough places, but also to some right places. The how and the why and the when and the where of that is the fun in the back half of the season."
