Oliver Queen quotes from Arrow

Oliver

What the hell is going on?

Felicity

You were injected with a strong-acting blood coagulant. This is the point in lifesaving emergency where you thank the person that did the lifesaving.

Oliver

You told him who I am?

Felicity

Yeah, I did.

Oliver

That's not your secret to tell, Felicity. I decide who finds out my identity.

Felicity

Well, we have time to get your vote, what with unconscious and dying.

Oliver

What happens if he leaves here and goes right to the police?

Barry

I wouldn't do that.

Felicity

He wouldn't do that. I trust him.

Oliver

I don't.

Felicity

What are you going to do, put an arrow in him?

Oliver

I am considering it.

Felicity

Don't worry, he's kidding. How is this any different from when your mother shot you and you came to me for help?

Barry

Your mother shot you?

Felicity

Or when you brought Dig down here when he was poisoned with Curare?

Oliver

The difference is that I did my homework on both of you. I don't just tell people easily.

Oliver

Barry. The rat poison that you gave me... are there any side effects?

Barry

Uh, yeah, I think hallucinations, maybe. And excessive sweating. Are you sweating excessively?

Felicity

You're hallucinating? What are you seeing?

Oliver

A girl named Shado that was with me on the island.

Felicity

Shado. Sara. How many women were you marooned with? Sure this wasn't Fantasy Island?

Oliver

How's Barry?

Felicity

He's still sleeping... I prefer sleeping to coma, because coma sounds, you know, not fun.

Quentin

You know, most cops they meet their informers in the back seat of a cruiser or maybe a coffee shop or something. What's with the mask?

Oliver

Gift from a friend.

Quentin

You've got friends?

Oliver

What happened?

Felicity

He's using cellular technology to detonate his bombs. Clearly, his expertise extends to obscuring that signal.

Oliver

Felicity, your expertise was supposed to trump his.

Felicity

Excuse me? If you have something to say to me, Oliver, say it.

Oliver

People are dying. So I would like you to pull your head out of Central City and back in the game.

Felicity

Sure, right after you get yours our of your ass.

Oliver

Excuse me?

Diggle

Okay...

Felicity

No, wait, I want to know, what exactly was that crack about Central City meant to imply?

Oliver

When the first bomb went off, you weren't here. And when the second bomb went off, you sent me the wrong way.

Felicity

After you didn't catch him in the first place.

Oliver

Don't blame me because you didn't have it tonight.

Felicity

I need some air.

Oliver

I'm sorry.

Felicity

Were you apologizing to me or were you talking to your quiver?

Oliver

I didn't snap at my quiver.

Felicity

Kind of more than snapped.

Oliver

I know and I'm sorry.

Felicity

I understand that this Mirakuru thing has you freaked out and I have been at Central City a lot.

Oliver

Felicity, it's not that. When you are there, it just makes me realize how much I need you here. At the beginning I was going to do all of this by myself, and now with you and Diggle... I rely on you.

Felicity

Does that mean I have a shot at employee of the month?

Oliver

No, because you're not my employee, you're my partner.

Oliver

Hello, Roy.

Roy

Lurking in an alley. That's not at all creepy.

Oliver

We'll find out when we find him.

Sara

And when we do, you can't tell him.

Oliver

Tell him what?

Sara

Don't talk to me like I'm other people. You've got that look on your face. The same one you had after the first time we kissed. Pure guilt.

Oliver

Because I am guilty, Sara! Ivo killed Shado because of me.

Sara

That's not true! And even if it was, nothing good comes from telling Slade that you think you're responsible for the death of the women he loved. Love's the most powerful emotion, and that makes it the most dangerous.

Diggle

How's it going with Roy?

Oliver

Not well.

Diggle

I don't know the kid all too well, but he seems to be five kinds of angry.

Oliver

You might be underestimating. Roy was mad at the world before he was injected with Mirakuru.

Oliver

You hacked into a prison system network?

Felicity

Is that judgment I'm hearing?

Oliver

Pride.

Felicity

Iron Heights just put out a bulletin for Ben Turner, A.K.A Bronze Tiger, which B.T.W. is a terrible nickname, because tigers are not bronze.

Oliver

Turner escaped?

Felicity

He killed ten guards on the way out.

Diggle

You'd think that would make the news.

Felicity

Iron Heights does better at keeping secrets than it does at keeping prisoners.

Oliver

For the past year, I have stood by your side... and I have fought for you, because I didn't want to believe that you were this... monster. And I needed to believe that still had a mother.

Moira

You do, Oliver. Oliver, I only lied about Thea to protect her from Malcolm.

Oliver

No, you lied because that is what you do. And that is who you are, Mom. Lies. And now you have made a liar out of me. Because Thea can never find out about Merlyn. And she can never learn the truth about us. Which is that as of right now, we have no relationship. I will keep up appearance for Thea's sake. And publicly I will support your campaign. But privately... you and I are done.

Oliver

Hey!

Laurel

You are unbelievable! You lecture me on how I need to repair my relationship with Sara when you're the one who messed it up in the first place. By screwing her! And now you're doing it again.

Oliver

You're right This is all my fault.

Laurel

Yeah. Yeah, it is.

Oliver

And is losing your job, doing drugs and being a drunk, is that my fault? Is that your family's fault? Or are you going to blame Tommy for dying?

Laurel

Screw you, Oliver.

Oliver

I have stood by you through everything– the DUI, losing your job, Laurel I was concerned about your well-being when you were trying to get my mother the death penalty!

Laurel

Yeah, you've been a real stand-up kind of guy.

Oliver

Laurel, do you think you're the only one that is having a hard time?! Do you think you're the only one with family issues? You have– you have no idea what is going on with my family right now. But I am still standing here. And you are still blaming everybody but yourself.

Laurel

Are you done?

Oliver

Yeah, I'm done. I'm done taking the blame and I'm done caring. Why don't you go have a drink. Get wasted. Go to Verdant. I'll pay for it. I have loved you for half of my life but I'm done running after you

Oliver

Are you sure you don't want to go to the hospital?

Felicity

Uh uh. You guys never go to the hospital. Besides, Dig gave me some of those aspirins. Are you spinning?

Oliver

[whispers to Diggle] Aspirin?

Diggle

[whispers back] Oxycodone.

Sara

I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been so brave. Thank you.

Felicity

It was nothing. I've always wanted to say I've taken a bullet for someone, and now I can. So, really, I should be thanking you.

Sara

[finishes the sutures] All done. Not bad, but you're still gonna have a scar.

Felicity

My own scar. Yay.

Oliver

[approaches Felicity] You all right? [Felicity nods] Diggle had mentioned that maybe you were feeling a little left out.

Felicity

What? No! I'm just used to being your girl. I mean not your "girl" girl... your girl. I know it sounds like the same word, but it... it means something different in my head.

Oliver

[gently cups Felicity's cheek] Hey... you will always be my girl, Felicity.

It's harder than it looks, isn't it? Killing an unarmed man.

Oliver

It seemed pretty easy when you murdered Shado.

I didn't murder her, Oliver.

Oliver

Ivo, you shot her in the head.

I gave you a choice! You chose Sara. You blame me, but that's because you can't face your own guilt. I loaded the bullets, yes, I pulled the trigger, but you... you aimed the gun. And you hold yourself responsible. Don't you?

Oliver

Yes. But that doesn't mean I won't kill you.

Oliver

Cyrus Gold, the man in the skull mask, all this was you. They worked for you.

Slade

Well, I have my allies, just as you have yours. John Diggle, for example. I suppose you're wondering why he hasn't taken his head shot. Don't worry. He's still alive - for now.
