Felicity Smoak quotes from Arrow

Oliver

[handing Felicity a hard drive] We need to know what's on this.

Felicity

"Hi, Felicity. How are you? Are you busy with anything? Can you help me with something? You look tired ."

Oliver

Hi.

Felicity

Hi.

Oliver

Jerry Bertinelli gave that to me. The port is the only thing the Bertinelli Family has left. Cayden James and Black Siren are trying to take it from them.

Diggle

So we're getting in bed with the Bertinellis now?

Felicity

I remember last time you got in bed with one of the Bertinellis, it did not work out well. [off Oliver's look] I have a long memory for these sort of things. Call me crazy.

Felicity

Are you happy to be back in your newly de-bugged crime-fighting lair?

Oliver

Cayden James got away. Everybody got away.

Felicity

You ever see that movie Bull Durham? My mom made me watch that movie all of the time. I mean, it is the best baseball movie ever, but she used to say Susan Sarandon was her fictional life coach. Anyway, there's a line in this movie where she says "Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes -- "

-- "it rains".

William

There's a prep sheet for the trip, and I tried one of the extra credits. [pulls out the sheet from his backpack] Would you take a look at it?

Oliver

Yeah, of course.

William

I meant... Felicity.

Oliver

I'm sure you did, yep.

William

I'm sorry. It's a math problem about hyperbolic geography in marine organisms, like coral.

Oliver

I do know what coral is, but that's okay.

Felicity

This is a high dimension math problem most people don't get until they're in... 12th grade AP. And it's perfect.

Felicity

[speaking to Vince over a comm] Vince, if you want to stay alive, repeat exactly what I say: "You think just -- "

Vincent

-- because I can handle a gun doesn't mean I know the difference between a trans-polymer hybrid and a fiber-optic cable. I'm just impressed. I wanted to know how you maximize the data throughput. Sorry. I should've asked first.

Cayden

[puzzled, but impressed] Perhaps. I may have underestimated you. It seems that you have more skill than I gave you credit for.

Vincent

I keep telling people I'm more than just a pretty face.

Felicity

Cayden sure has a lot of junk in his server for someone who's as Type A as you say he is.

Alena

Well, brilliant people are often slobs. Or so I tell myself. And my dates.

Curtis

Showoff. I can't even get a date.

Oliver

[walking in] Something smells good.

Felicity

Well, that smell is physics, mathematics and chemistry hard at work.

William

Felicity is teaching me about thermodynamics.

Felicity

That's right.

William

And we just really wanted cookies.

Felicity

Shh! Narc!

Nyssa

I hear you've taken my husband as your own.

Felicity

Yeah, well,... we can talk about that later.

Nyssa

In the League, such talk would take the form of mortal combat.

Felicity

Now that we are alone, I know this might not exactly be the right time–

Oliver

You understand that I'm going to be punching people in about sixty seconds, right?

Felicity

Yes, but it's been about a week since you decided that you're not giving John the hood back, and I was just wondering when you were planning on talking to him about that.

Oliver

Well, I'm waiting for the right moment. That moment is not now.

Felicity

That's a fair point.

Oliver

John. What do you need?

Diggle

Well, Felicity said she needed to update the code on my chip. She also said that you would be at City Hall.

Felicity

Well, I said he might be. I didn't say he would be. And yeah, I "Parent Trapped" you, but it was a little naïve of you to think I wouldn't, considering how well you know me. You know?

Felicity

[regarding Oliver's Hood uniform] I haven't seen that in a while. Wanted to take it for a spin down Memory Lane or something?

Oliver

Something like that. Vertigo gave me some... clarity.

Felicity

Sure you're not still high?

Oliver

[grunts] John had a point. I have spread myself pretty thin. I'm not giving up on you, I'm not giving up on William. And if by some miracle I am not impeached, I will keep being the Mayor. I believe deeply in the good that I can do as the Green Arrow. But I need to bring the mission... back to basics. I need to bring it back to where it started.

Felicity

You mean "alone".

Oliver

Alone.

Felicity

Worrying about you out here is... [getting emotional] Well, it's completely different from worrying about you in the Bunker.

Oliver

Right. Because when you're in the Bunker, you feel like you can make a difference.

Felicity

I can. I can make a difference. I can, I can... deploy backup. I can do, I don't know, I can do something. Out here... I'm helpless out here.

Oliver

You are not helpless anywhere, ever. I'm not helpless, either. All right? [points to William's room] I made a promise to that guy in there I would always come back.

Felicity

Well, William made an excellent point when he said you coming back is not always gonna be your decision.

Oliver

William does make an excellent point. But... I made the promise anyway. I'm making the same promise to you. Right here, and right now. Felicity... I will always come back. [Felicity kisses him]

Lyla

Everything okay?

Felicity

Yeah, it's just, it's so nice to see how you and John, you know, work when you're on the field, 'cause you're so in sync. How do you do it?

Lyla

You're asking for marital advice? Now?

Felicity

Sorry, yeah, totally terrible timing. It's just that, like, Oliver doesn't even want me here, so I just thought, maybe a tip or two would work.

Lyla

We always knew our lives would be high-risk. Eventually, we got to a point where... worrying about that seemed less important than enjoying the time we have together. Even if that was on a battlefield. [opens the car door] Also... getting divorced helped. [gets out of the car]

Oliver

Hey, um... I shouldn't have pushed you away. I should have trusted you to keep yourself safe, and I should've trusted my abilities to help keep you safe.

Felicity

Thank you.

Oliver

Yeah.

Felicity

It's good to know, after all these years, that you can still learn something.

Oliver

You know, I still have a ways to go.

Felicity

That's true.

Felicity

I'm done hiding, Oliver. I'm done being a person who doesn't fight back. Diaz broke in, and all I could think about was protecting William. I tried, and I couldn't do it. If A.R.G.U.S. hadn't gotten there when they did... do you know what it feels like not being able to protect your family?

Oliver

I have lived with that feeling every second since I stepped in here, Felicity. Don't... don't tempt that, please. Please. I am begging you to go back to witness protection.

Felicity

No. I won't. You don't get to decide this time, Oliver. I love you, and I will always... always wait for you. But I can't let what happened to William and I happen again. I can't. I have to fight back. You, of all people, understand that.

Rene

Back in town a week and you're already sneaking out of A.R.G.U.S. behind Papa Dig's back? I'm so proud.

Felicity

[fist bumping] Thanks, man.

Curtis

Don't encourage her.
