Slade demands the ultimate retribution on Lian Yu in Arrow (S2E20) by re-enacting Oliver's anguish. It is the height of psychological cruelty to force him to choose between his mother and sister, just as Oliver had to choose between Shado and Sara. The tragedy is further made worse by Moira's self-sacrifice, and Slade icily voices Oliver, "Now you know how I felt." This deliberate brutality demonstrates that Slade is more than just a bad person and an embodiment of Oliver's darkest nightmare.
