Oliver's circumstances will change drastically in season 3 of Arrow, according to the show's producer.

Thea to Ask Roy to Kill Her in Upcoming Episode?

In an interview with TVFanatic on April 15, the CW series' producer Andrew Kreisberg spoke about how Oliver Queen's (Stephen Amell) character arc will evolve towards the end of season 2 which will affect how season 3 will start.

Kreisberg said that Oliver's family's financialy situation will suffer and the downward spiral will "play out in the last five episodes" of season 2. Due to this, Oliver might not be able to afford the services of his bodyguard, Diggle (David Ramsey), and his assistant, Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards).

"And we're going to start Season 3 with Oliver in very different circumstances than he's been before, which, obviously, him being in different circumstances changes the circumstances of his paid bodyguard [Diggle] and his paid assistant [Felicity] since he can no longer pay them."

Meanwhile, here's the synopsis for the next episode, Seeing Red:

Which Characters Will Die By Season 2's Shocking Finale?

"ROY SPINS OUT OF CONTROL - The mirakuru sends Roy (Colton Haynes) into an uncontrollable rage and he unleashes on the city. After Roy's deadly fight with a police officer, Oliver (Stephen Amell) realizes the mirakuru has taken over Roy completely and must figure out a way to stop him. Things get more complicated after Sara (Caity Lotz) declares that Roy is too far gone and the only way to stop him is to kill him.

Meanwhile, Thea (Willa Holland) believes she can breakthrough to Roy so she goes on camera at Moira's (Susanna Thompson) campaign rally to lure him to Verdant. Her ploy works but after Roy attacks Thea, Team Arrow unleashes on him."

Seeing Red will air at 8 p.m. on April 23 on CW.
