she is kelly hu, she needs no reason other than that to be still alive. but seriously kelly hu is an awesome actress so its better to leave her alive so she can drop in nw and then to screw with ollies life.
 * China White - How is she still alive?

as for nanda parbat i think malcolm is still alive and has run off to there to heal before coming back to kill the hood for killing tommy (he is crazy so thats automatically what he will think in order to run away from his guilt over causing the death).

tommy is harry osborn: im really glad they didnt go that route with him since by the end of the season he was pushing in on diggle for being my favourite character and it would have sucked to send him down that cliched hole, better to die a hero than live long enough to become a villain. look at me complaining about cliches and i pull that phrase out, how hypocritical.

as bad as huntress was and as much as i dont want her to come back im glad they did that story because ollie was noticably less trigger happy once he saw her do it so i think it worked as another step on his journey to becoming the green arrow we know.

as for the flashbacks, they are a surprisingly compelling aspect of the show (thank you manu bennet) so im glad we are going to see more of them and i think its better that they stay seperate from the present day story (of course deathstroke turning up in the city wouldnt be a bad thing so i wouldnt mind that connection) and i did find it weird that they teased the woman in the second last episode and then ignored her in the brief flashbacks in the finale.
