It looks like The Flash will be a rerun on November 4, but Arrow will follow up with a new episode the next day: the much-anticipated episode "The Secret Origin of Felicity Smoak."

The episode will introduce Donna Smoak, Felicity's mother, played by NYPD Blue's Charlotte Ross. Nolan Funk will also guest star as Felicity's ex-boyfriend, while JR Ramirez shows up as Wildcat, training Laurel.

Michael Schultz, who directed Car WashThe Last Dragon and The Jerk, Too, is behind the camera for this one, as he was for previous Arrow episodes "City of Blood," "The Scientist," "The Undertaking" and "Damaged."

You can check out the official synopsis below.
