It [episode 5x20] came about the confluence of two major events, we always knew from very early on the season that we were going to get Oliver and Felicity sort of into a circumstance where by they would essentially deal with their own shit. We knew we were going to place Felicity in a story were she would start to develop empathy for Oliver, and that empathy would lead them to have eventually that adult conversation they did not have in season 4. Around the same time we were reaching the point in the season were we were pretty far out of budget and we were talking about “bottle episodes” to save some money, because we needed to have a reservoir of dollars left to end the season in high style as it were and it was Brian Ford Sullivan who came up with this idea of Oliver and Felicity being trapped in the bunker. We sort of called it the “Chilean Coal mine Episode”(…) and it was all about everyone trying to get Oliver and Felicity out of this dire circumstances. This episode is kind of like a play because we wanted to put Oliver and Felicity together in a circumstance that force them or at least give them the opportunity to deal with all their issues, and deal with it in an adult way

The tragedy of Oliver Queen is he never understood the way Felicity loves him. He always believed Felicity would leave if she knew the truth. Oliver was wrong. The truth is what makes her stay.

Oliver to Prometheus | Arrow 5x21
He is on his way of figuring it out...
They’re [Oliver & Felicity] stuck in a bunker together, and they’re not in a good place. They’ve taken their individual paths, which is was exactly what they wanted at the top of the season. They’ve gone down these different roads. Oliver’s tries to pull her back from this brink and has failed. All that fallout is going to happen right there in the bunker where they have nowhere to run and there’s no escaping that conflict.
Arrow EP Wendy Mericle talks abou 5x20 to EW.com On this episode, Felicity will not be able to go out for "fresh air" ...
Basically, we are trying to take down Prometheus and Team Arrow has one way of going about it and Felicity thinks she has a better way with Helix and we disagree, so it is basically, we are going after the same objective but there is a tactical difference on how we are doing it and Oliver and Felicity have a great scene where he says ‘Please, don’t do it this way’ and she is saying ‘This is why I have to’. It’s a really good scene…Emily and I hadn’t had kind of a long solo scene in a little bit. So it’s good, it set the four-five last episodes of the year pretty good pretty well.
