- [after watching a video of the virus-outbreak in China]
- Felicity Smoak: You don't really believe Merlyn?
- John Diggle: Well, looking at this, we can't afford not to believe Merlyn.
- Felicity Smoak: He is a mass murderer who has lied to us so many times it should be a drinking game.
- John Diggle: What is this about, Malcolm?
- Malcolm Merlyn: Well, this isn't going to be easy for all of you to believe...
- Felicity Smoak: Because you're a sociopath and a liar.
- Malcolm Merlyn: Be that as it may, this would be much quicker for all of us if we can fast forward through this cynicism and reach the conclusion that I am telling you the truth.
- John Diggle: About what?
- Malcolm Merlyn: Oliver. His allegiance with the League is a charade.
- Felicity Smoak: Why would you even begin to play with our emotions like that?
- Malcolm Merlyn: This plan was born the moment Oliver realized that he had to capitulate to Ra's to save Thea.
- John Diggle: And instead of sharing this plan with us, he trusted you?
- Laurel Lance: The man who had my sister murdered.
- Malcolm Merlyn: Well, I am better practiced in the art of deception. And no offense, none of you are particularly good actors.
- Maseo Yamashiro: Tell Akio I love him.
- Tatsu Yamashiro: You tell him for both of us.
- [she stabs Maseo]
- Maseo Yamashiro: Thank you... for releasing me... from my prison.
- John Diggle: I hate when they run!
- Felicity Smoak: Well, at least you're getting your cardio workout in. I still have 40 minutes on an elliptical in my immediate future.
- Laurel Lance: Any idea what this is about?
- John Diggle: No, but Merlyn assures me that he'll be waving the white flag.
- Malcolm Merlyn: I'm sorry. I forgot the flag.
- Laurel Lance: That's too bad. I would have told you where you can put it.
- Malcolm Merlyn: Can you bring it down from the sky?
- Felicity Smoak: They destroyed my gear. But I had some insurance come along.
- Malcolm Merlyn: What kind of insurance?
- [the Atom arrives]
- Felicity Smoak: The atomic kind.
- Roy Harper: I figured that I'd just leave the crime fighting to the cops. I kind of just want to be normal.
- Thea Queen: Yeah? And how is that going for you?
- Roy Harper: I am so bored.
- Thea Queen: Yeah, well, that's why I brought you this. Malcolm stole it out of impound. Don't worry - I made him promise nobody would get killed.
- Roy Harper: Never thought I'd see this thing again.
- Thea Queen: I figured that everybody thinks that Roy Harper is the Arrow, they don't have to know that he's Arsenal, too, right?
