Quotes 

• Laurel Lance : Okay, so clearly we're not gonna find Darhk by tailing his wife.

  John Diggle : Yeah, well, it's not like we have a lot of moves left to make. Darhk has gone, well, dark ever since Machin attacked his family.

  Oliver Queen : But Darhk is not afraid of Machin. He's just... his plan's gone to a new phase.

  Thea Queen : And how do you know that?

  Oliver Queen : Because H.I.V.E. spent months trying to cripple this city's leadership. They discouraged people from running for mayor. They even tried to co-op my candidacy.

  Felicity Smoak : Yeah, then Mrs. Evil threw her hat in the ring.

  Oliver Queen : There has to be a reason. Darhk did not try and destroy Star City so that his wife could be mayor. There's something that we're not seeing.

• Oliver Queen : Can you hack the fire alarm? We need to evacuate the building.

  Felicity Smoak : It's an old system--it might take me a minute.

  Thea Queen : [Fire alarm goes off. They both look at Thea, who just pulled the fire alarm]  Yeah, I learned that in high school.

• Oliver Queen : [Referring to debate questions]  You pretty much nailed them all...

  Oliver Queen : Stop sounding so surprised, please.

  Thea Queen : Well, you did spend your education nailing chicks, not doing social studies.

• Thea Queen : Why didn't you tell me you went to college with Samantha Clayton?

  Oliver Queen : I was with Samantha Clayton while I was dating Laurel, and I'm not proud of that, so...

  Thea Queen : So why did mom pay her a million dollars?

  Oliver Queen : Thea, I told you, mom is...

  Thea Queen : Ollie, I um... I looked her up. Right after you guys broke up, she moved to Central City. She's got a son named William... Who's about as old as that check is.

  Oliver Queen : Okay, Thea.

  Thea Queen : When we were in Central City, I knew something was bothering you, and I knew it just wasn't Vandal Savage. I mean, now it makes sense. William's your son, isn't he?

  Thea Queen : Yes, he is.

  Thea Queen : Why haven't you told anyone?

  Oliver Queen : Because Samantha said that the only way I could see him is if I promised not to tell him, or anyone else, that I'm his father.

  Thea Queen : God, that is... That is brutal. Are you okay?

  Oliver Queen : I thought I was doing okay. I spent a lot of time convincing myself that I was... That I was trying to do the right thing, but then, you know, you brough this--the thing with the check--and I'm not... It's not your fault, but it's... You bring it up right when we're trying to plan an engagement party, so I'm left to think... How can I marry Felicity if there is this lie between us?

  Thea Queen : It's not a lie, okay? It's a promise that you are keeping to the mother of your child.

  Oliver Queen : That doesn't make it right, Thea.

  Thea Queen : Look at it from Samantha's perspective--as far as she knows, you are a rich playboy who slept with a bunch of women and got her pregnant.

  Oliver Queen : I'm not that person anymore.

  Thea Queen : Now you're the Green Arrow. Anyone who comes into your life is automatically a target. What Samantha is asking for you to do, as hard as it may be, it is the right thing to do. I know you want to tell Felicity, and trust me, I would *love* to be an aunt, but you have got to do the right thing for your son here. As hard as this may be for you Ollie, keeping William a secret is keeping him safe.

  [Cell phone vibrates; Oliver exhales] 

• Felicity Smoak : Okay, I have a million questions, but first--Why would HIVE try to attack the debate?

  Oliver Queen : To take me out and discourage anyone else from running.

  Thea Queen : Okay, but Darhk's wife is here at ground zero, so it doesn't really make sense to...

  Oliver Queen : Unless Darhk's demolition team is gonna wipe everyone out except for Ruve.

  Felicity Smoak : Leaving Mrs. Darhk a sympathetic survivor instead of the pot of evil strew that she actually is.
