Anatoly quotes from Arrow

Anatoly

[works on fixing the submarine] Like riding bicycle. Underwater.

Why are you doing this?

Sara

I'm with Oliver now!

Anatoly

Why should I believe you?

Sara

Because you don't want to die! Go!

Oliver

Submarines have torpedoes, right? Can't we blast our way out?

Anatoly

I can see why you two are made for each other. You like your explosions.

Oliver

You're a good man, Anatoly. If this is goodbye, be safe.

Anatoly

I will see you soon. You and Sara.

Oliver

I meant what I said. If we're not back in an hour, you sink the freighter and get yourself home.

Anatoly

I think maybe I prefer Bahamas.

Anatoly

Bratva. Do you know what this word means?

Oliver

"Brotherhood".

Anatoly

Da. If you are hungry, brothers will feed you. If you are hurt, brothers bring ten times pain to men responsible. If one brother succeeds, all brothers rich. If one brother fails, all brothers suffer. Your brothers would kill for you, would die for you, as you would kill and die for them.

Anatoly

Second test over. Do not make any worse by pulling out suture.

Oliver

Anatoly, if this is how the Bratva treat their new members, I'd hate to see how they treat their enemies.

Anatoly

Pass third and final test, find out.

Anatoly

Okay, once you have wires attached... Good. Now take the other one and attach to battery, and the other one to the ignitor.

Oliver

I failed chemistry in high school, twice.

Anatoly

Then learn like I did, in, how you say, school of have knock.

Oliver

I don't see the point of this. I'm here, in Russia, to take out Konstantin Kovar, not to learn how to make a bomb.

Anatoly

You must be like sponge, Oliver. Making bomb, working with electronic, welding metal, Bratva spend off hour learning many trade.

Oliver

Fine.

Anatoly

Attach one end to ignitor, other one to battery terminal. Careful! Do not touch circuit board.

Anatoly

[laughs] It's okay Oliver, first time I try, nearly lose finger.

Anatoly

I have location for Walker. And men to help in fight. But we have to leave now.

Curtis

[speaking in Russian] Thank you so much!

Anatoly

Your strange friend's pronunciation is horrible.

Oliver

Yeah, I'll tutor him later.

Anatoly

I hear you're mayor now. Big promotion. Now you pakhan, now you tell everyone what to do.

Oliver

That's not how things work in America, Anatoly.

Anatoly

Yeah, that's the way things work everywhere. I was hoping maybe you could repay me.

Oliver

I thought we were even.

Anatoly

I thought you returned to Bratva.

Oliver

That was temporary.

Anatoly

That is the thing about oaths, Oliver. They are never temporary. They are for life.

Oliver

Look. I'm gonna stay here until we take out Gregor and we protect the Bratva.

Anatoly

Because you'll "stay"? You going to leave.

Oliver

Look, Anatoly, I realize I... I have to get back to my life. Then I saw what Gregor did to you because of me, and--

Anatoly

You're a sin-eater, Oliver. In some cultures, there's this guy who lives on edge of village. And when somebody dies, they put body there and cover it with fruits and vegetables, and he eats that.

Oliver

He eats their sins?

Anatoly

Yes. So they go on to the afterlife. He takes their sins as his own.

Oliver

[unfamiliar with the procedure] What'd you do?

Anatoly

Extend our lives by length of good movie.

Anatoly

[sees Oliver dressed in his Hood costume] Why are you playing Robin Hood?

Oliver

I met a woman. She taught me how to give my darkness an identity. So that it doesn't consume me.

Anatoly

And you believed her?

Anatoly

Glupie. Oliver, whatever you think is inside you, is inside you. You cannot name it like bats. Keep it apart from you.

Oliver

This woman's taught me differently.

Anatoly

This woman does not know what she is talking about. And if you're not careful, Oliver, one day she will be the source of your greatest pain.

[shaking hands with Anatoly] Malcolm Merlyn. CEO of Merlyn Global Group.

Anatoly

[unimpressed] Anatoly Knyazev. Gangster.

Anatoly

[sees the covered body of the man Oliver tortured to death] What is this monstrosity?

Oliver

You should be resting.

Anatoly

I woke up with headache. I came to find you. I was not expecting this. This... this is not human.

Oliver

Anatoly, I told you... putting on this hood, it helps me direct the darkness inside me. It worked, by the way. I know what Kovar's planning.

Anatoly

But at what cost? You're a fool to think a piece of cloth can separate man from monster. Dividing yourself in two will only make monster stronger. Until it is stronger than you.

Oliver

You knew what I was capable of back in Lian Yu.

Anatoly

But this man I see now bears more resemblance to Slade Wilson or Anthony Ivo. [lifts the sheet, recoils in disgust, then replaces it] Tough man. Clearly withstood a lot before breaking.

Oliver

Gave up pretty quickly. The rest was me practicing.

Anatoly

Practicing to become what?

Oliver

Something else.

Anatoly

Remember first time we met, on Amazo?

Oliver

I was performing surgery on myself. It's kinda difficult to forget.

Anatoly

Yeah. What was it I said to you then?

Oliver

"Living is not for the weak."

Anatoly

I cannot believe scared boy in cell beside me would be one to kill Konstantin Kovar.

Oliver

Well, that wasn't me. [indicates his hood] That was him

Anatoly

That is a lie you tell yourself. An excuse that allows you to kill. You kill because you like it.

Oliver

That's not true, Anatoly, I hate it. And I think maybe you've had a bit too much to drink.

Anatoly

Well, that is entirely possible. But in this case, I am right. This "deal" you selled yourself on, that this hood was going to keep this monster of yours at bay... someday, it's going to fall apart. And when it does, you're not going to like the man you see underneath.
