Tommy and Oliver in “Unfinished Business”

Again, I would like to point out how structurally unsound this building appears to be, so maybe upping the payload is no the best option.

It's a risk I have to take. This is it. After this, I'm out of options.

Are you, or is this just typical Oliver? Now come on, man. Don't you ever wonder why you keep finding yourself in positions like this where things just keep getting worse?

I'm here for one reason and one reason only - Emiko.

Right. Emiko, your half sister.

Her being my half sister doesn't matter. What matters is finding her and stopping her before she hurts anyone else. It's a strategy you should appreciate.

Why? Because of what my father did to the Glades?

No, Tommy, because of what he did to you! Any idea what it's like to - to - to run a scenario through your head a million times, just wondering if you could've just listen to me a little bit sooner, because you didn't because you were blinded by the face that he was your father. Maybe you'd still be alive today.

But I didn't listen, and I didn't make the right choice, at least not until it was too late, because I was stuck, Oliver, in my own cycle, my father's cycle, just like you are and just like you will continue to be if you don't break free.

No. No. You're wrong. This isn't about me. This is not about my father. This is about Emiko, and the choices that she made, they are on her.
