TV show quotes
Captain Lance.
Harper.
I'm not sure what you...
Look. I've seen you shooting a red hoodie, I've seen you shooting arrows at people. You think I don't recognize you with a little extra leather and lace?
Well, I guess I won't be needing this anymore. [turns off voice modulator]
This is for Rebecca.
What?
You don't even know here name, do you? Is this the weapon you used to murder my wife?
Everybody I dropped was with that piece.
She was a good person, decent, kind. She ran the clinic here in the Glades.
Brunette? Ha ha ha! Yeah. Now I remember. She was my first, my initiation into the Orchid Bay Butchers. Heh heh heh.
You murdered her because you wanted into a gang?
No. Because she was weak! Because she was crying, begging me not to kill her, but you won't get that from me, so come on! Finish it!
Don't do it!
You are too late.
Drop the gun. No more death.
That's easy for you to say. You just returned from the grave.
Killing him won't balance the scales.
When you have killed 503 people including your own son, you tend not to worry about scales, and don't tell me it won't stop the pain and it won't bring her back because you don't understand! If I had taken care of him back then, it could all be different. The League, the Undertaking, Tommy... Every choice I have made since my wife died.
Then you make a different choice now for Thea.
Thea will never forgive me.
Start giving her reasons to.
I'm sorry...
For what? Maybe you could be a little more specific: Letting us think you were dead? For weeks? Or by abandoning every principle you claimed to have by getting into bed with Malcom Merlyn?
That's not what has you upset.
When you were gone... for almost a month... I allowed myself to fantasize. To dream that maybe, just maybe... Merlyn was wrong. That you were alive. That you'd come back.
And that when you did, maybe you'd be different. That almost dying would give you a new perspective on life. That you would do things differently...
Things between us, you mean.
Before you left, the last thing you said was that you loved me. Now you're back... And the first thing you tell me is that you're working with the man who turned your sister... who you're supposed to love... into a killer, who killed a woman you used to love. I don't want to be a woman you love.
I know what you're going to say, but I risked myself for this city while you were gone. That should earn me some respect.
This isn't about respect. And it's not about you risking your life. I understand that you miss Sara. And I understand when you go out there like this, all of that pain goes away.
It's the only time it ever does.
And that relief isn't real. It's a drug.
If you're implying...
You an addict. And just like booze and pills, that high you're chasing every night is endangering your life.
Go to hell, Oliver. You don't get to play that card with me. Ever. And if there is anyone who is using adrenaline to hide the pain of real feelings and real life, it's you.
You think you're the only person who can stand up for Thea?
I'm trying to figure out why you're standing up to me!
Alright. Maybe we just need to throttle back.
No! We need this. Oliver, you were gone, dead, at least we thought you were, and we had to go on with our lives and doing that meant not doing things your way.
Fine. I'm back now!
That doesn't mean we can go back! And you do not have the right to come back here and question everyone's choices.
No, you weren't gone. You were dead and all of us, including me; we were ready to hang it up.
Why didn't you?
Because we realized we weren't just fighting for you, we were fighting for ourselves. That includes Roy and, yes, that includes Laurel.
She's not a soldier.
Neither were you.
It's not the same thing and you know that.
What I know, Oliver, is that you started something, something strong enough to live on past you. Question is, can you live with what it's become?
When Zytle hit me with Vertigo, I saw Sara. She was alive and she was calling me a fraud. I was crazy to think that I was fit to wear Sara's jacket, so much as follow in her footsteps.
You're right. I hope I'm not out of line here. But, I think Sara wore her mask just as much to hide her demons as she did to help people. I don't see that with you. You have a light inside of you that Sara never had so maybe you should stop trying to be Sara and just be yourself.
You smell like smoke. Korean barbecue?
C4. Yeah.
You shouldn't grow up too fast.
Yeah, well, you're not my brother.
You're right, no, I'm not. But I think about him every single day. For the first time, I'm glad he's gone. 'Cause seeing you like this would break his heart.
It's funny how Ollie seems to care more about me now that he's dead than he did when he was alive.
What were you thinking? Anyone at that party could have seen you!
Yeah, I pulled the hoodie down to cover my face.
That disguise wouldn't work even if you smeared grease paint all over your face.
Come on, then. You've earned it.
Thea, don't!
He killed Mom!
And he will continue to pay for his crimes, but not like this! You're a not a killer!
Yeah, tell that to Sara!
What happened to Sara is not on you! What happens to him is! All this is what Malcolm wanted. He freed Slade to prove we're killers because he wants you to be just like him. You got to prove to him that you're not
She's lost, your sister.
No, she's not.
You can see it in her eyes. She's been touched by darkness. Was it Merlyn? He's an interesting man to do that to his own daughter. So now you've lost your father, your mother, and now your little sister. How's the girl with glasses? What's her name? Felicity. How many people can Oliver Queen lose before there is no more Oliver Queen?
How could you make me kill a friend?
He should not have told you that.
I trusted you. I let you into my life. How could you have done this to me?
Because you are my daughter, Thea, and I care about you.
Oh, God, that's sick. And not even remotely true!
You do not understand the danger we face from Ra's al Ghul!
Just stop! Stop using him as an excuse. The only person I'm afraid of right now is you.
Please, do not do this...
Please, stop. I will work with you to stop Ra's. Because that's what my brother says we need to do. So I will be your student. I'll be your partner. Even if I have to, I will be your soldier. But never again will I be your daughter.
Did you get locked out of the Palmer Technologies server? That's a shame.
You did this?
I just came from a friend of mine who has his head shoved so far up his colon that - and I'm pretty sure this is true - he's literally going to get himself killed. Him, I can't do anything about. You're a different story.
Great. Why don't you tell me the story while you unlock the atom subroutine directory?
You have two options, Ray. Option one - you can find the way to break through the encryption that I used to lock up your server, which by my calculations, will take you roughly 6.25 hours. Or you can use that time to eat a proper meal, take a shower, and get no less than five hours of sleep, at the completion of which I will give you the password.
I see.
It's your choice, but I highly recommend option two, because this whole situation has gone from endearingly eccentric to creepily not okay.
If I'd had the energy, I think I'd be getting angry right now, but instead... I'll just take option two.
That's a wise choice. After your dinner and a shower, I am taking you straight to bed. [pauses] Putting you. Why do I do that?
Your sister told us Merlyn killed Sara. Are you so lost you'd deprive me of my justice?
This isn't justice. It's vengeance.
Vengeance is justice.
