Thank you for coming.
I care about the lives of other people, Oliver. Maybe you should try it sometime.
[to the new body guard] I gotta go to the wash room, Rob.
[long pause]
[to Rob] Oh, that boy's long gone man.
I didn't become a lawyer to break the law or hurt anybody.
I do what's necessary, what people like Peter Declan need.
If what you're doing isn't wrong, then why are you hiding your face with a hood?
To protect the ones I care about.
[handcuffs Matt Istook to train track] Peter Declan, your lies put him on death row. Now, either it's time to tell me the truth, or it's time for the 10:15 to Blüdhaven.
You really did lose your mind on that island.
Found a couple of things along the way.
Like what? Archery classes?
Clarity.
[shoots a rabbit] Dinner. Get.
Ah, come... hey, I got an idea. Why don't you let me shoot that thing and you can go pick up the bloody, dead, disgusting animal.
[gives Oliver his bow] You try.
[Ollie takes aim at a tree, draws, looses - and misses wide.]
[speaks Mandarin]
What does that mean?
You will die badly. [motions to the rabbit] Get.
And you get me this. I mean, it's an arrowhead.
Oh, man. Thea, I bought that in the gift shop at the Beijing airport. Now I'm sort of happy I didn't buy you the shot glass with the panda on it, 'cause then you'd be worried I was Panda Man.
Wow. I can't remember the last time I've been in this room.
I can. Halloween, 2005. We were getting ready for Tommy's party.
Ah. Yes. I wore those horrible fishnets.
I thought you looked good.
Do we have a legal meeting or something? 'Cause, I have friends over.
Wow. You look just really lovely.
Lovely. Well, it's nice that you've extended your vocabulary from words like hot and mega hot.
You can just say thank you, you know.
I think you have the wrong impression about what it is I do.
You take out bad guys with a bow and arrow.
I don't fight street crime. That's a symptom of what's wrong with this city; I'm trying to cure the disease.
CEOs and crooked entrepreneurs, I get it. Listen, Oliver, I'm just saying maybe you can make a difference if you think beyond the scope of those pages. I'm sure your father wouldn't mind.
No, you don't get it. My father died so that I could live. Live and make a difference by fixing the city that he and the people in this book ruined. Every name that I cross off this list honors that sacrifice.
Oliver, there's more than one way to save this city.
Not for me. Crime happens in this city every day. What do you want me to do? Stop all of it?
Sounds like you have a narrow definition of being a hero.
I'm not a hero.
I expect you to be there.
I have plans.
That's fine. Brunch is tomorrow.
Hmm. inches from a clean getaway.
Well, you too, Thea.
Snap.
Nobody says that anymore.
What?
You lied to me.
You asked me to work with you, not for you. And when you did, you said it was because you understood the kind of man I am. Well, Oliver, I'm the kind of man who doesn't walk away when there's a chance to make a difference. And neither does Stan Washington. Oliver, I'm not finished talking. Where are you going?
To make a difference. Let's catch some bank robbers.
Please don't tell me you're going where I think you're going.
Diggle, why do you even ask?
I have a confession....I didn't want to go out with you tonight.
That makes two of us.
I'm really glad that I did.
That makes two of us.
