Joe quotes from Arrow

Joe

You should've stayed dead.

Slade

I heard you were in trouble, kid. So I thought I'd offer my help.

Joe

Well, then,... here to save me. Last I saw, you weren't all that concerned with saving anyone. [pulls a pistol on Slade] Apple doesn't fall that far. [to Nighlander] What do you think? Patricide?

He's seen our operation. Makes him liability.

Slade

Kid, you can have that choice. But I'll give you another one. Let me join you.

Joe

[cocks the pistol] If I'd wanted a family reunion, I would have sent an invitation.

Slade

Maybe you did. But you just haven't realized it yet, kid. [advances on Joe, puts his good eye right up to the pistol's barrel] See, I came all this way to speak with you, and I will kill anybody who gets in my way. Because I got nothing left to lose! Only you! So go ahead... and make a decision.

Joe

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't swayed by the poetry of it all. But can I trust you?

Slade

Trust is built upon honesty. I'm sure you have a lot of questions to ask me, and I've got a lot of questions for you, Joe.

Joe

That's not my name anymore.

Slade

Your mother named you something different. To keep us apart.

Joe

Okay. Guess we've got some catching up to do.

Joe

Excuse the poor accommodations. Don't plan on staying in this stain of a country too long.

Slade

Well, there's a reason they say "The money is in the muck".

Joe

I did bring one luxury, however. [sets down a bottle of scotch]

Slade

There's a blast from the past. My favorite. I never realized you'd acquired a taste for it, too.

Joe

Like you taught me: "Always drink good booze... and then look out for yourself".

Joe

"Trust begins with honesty". That's what you said to me, but you lied!

Slade

You know life is not that simple, Joe.

Joe

That's not my name! How could you forgive Oliver Queen after what he did to you?!

Slade

Because he forgave me for far worse. Sins that I have to carry to the grave. A curse I didn't want to pass on to you. All of this anger and resentment! It's time to bring it to an end, son!!

Joe

No! It's just the beginning! [draws his sword and attacks Slade]
