‘Arrow’: Watch Oliver’s Intense Confrontation With Damien Dahrk (Exclusive Video)

Things quickly take a turn for the worst when Dahrk tries to influence Oliver's mayoral campaign in this exclusive clip.

It's time for Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) and Damien Dahrk (Neil McDonough) to fight with more than just their fists on Arrow. Now they're going to have to rely on their wit and words.

Despite having already fought season four's big bad multiple times, Wednesday's episode will see the two come face-to-face for the first time in a public setting as Oliver Queen and Damien Dahrk, minus the bows, arrows, magic and disguises.

Now that Oliver is taking his mayoral campaign seriously, he's going to have to work with powerful city leaders and officials ... and Dahrk is currently masquerading as one. But what Dahrk doesn't know is that the mayoral hopeful he's currently trying to schmooze into working with (and for) him is actually the man underneath the green hood he's been fighting all over Star City. So when Dahrk tries to influence Oliver's campaign platform for his own gain, things quickly take a turn. 

The Hollywood Reporter has an exclusive first look at the intense confrontation. Oliver's restraint in refusing Dahrk's suggestions outright is impressive, since he's got to keep up his public disguise to protect his private activities. But how long can he keep that up and keep his real identity a secret from Dahrk?

Watch the exclusive clip above now.

Arrow airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on The CW.
