You are not helpless anywhere, ever. I'm not helpless, either. All right? [points to William's room] I made a promise to that guy in there I would always come back.
William does make an excellent point. But... I made the promise anyway. I'm making the same promise to you. Right here, and right now. Felicity... I will always come back. [Felicity kisses him]
What, so you can dislocate thumbs and escape? Come on, Oliver. Most of your tricks, I taught you. I also taught you not to go into situation alone, hm?
That explains why you broke into SCPD wearing Kapiushon outfit. [laughs] Oh, Diaz and I had good laugh on that one. Maybe one day, we will have bigger laugh about this.
I've known a lot of bad men, and they've been filled with anger and with hate. But not Diaz. He's not filled with anger inside because he's not even human inside. I watched him burn a man alive over a childhood grudge. If I cross him... what is he gonna do to me?
Stop it. This is pointless. You said you had plan for him, that you need him alive, no? In Bratva, we have ways of dealing with conflict like this. We fight with honor, we don't... do this.
[making her opening statement to the jury] Oliver Queen is a hero. He is. He's saved this city more times than anybody can count. But he's done it all from behind a mask. So that he could take the law into his own hands. In fact, he's taken as many lives as he's saved. So, yes, Oliver Queen is a hero. That doesn't mean he's not also a criminal.
Then I'm gonna to propose a new strategy: jury nullification. You're going to admit to being the Green Arrow. We are then gonna highlight everysingle thing you have done for this city, all the times you have saved it. We will argue you do not deserve to go to prison. This. Is. A legitimate chance, Oliver.
I'd be putting a target on my back. I'd be putting a target on my wife and son's back. I've been the Green Arrow for six years. I didn't plan on doing it forever. I thought that one day, my mission would end and I would finally, after all this time, get a chance to actually live my life. That will never happen if I tell the whole world that I'm the Green Arrow.
That night, my father destroyed a large portion of the city. With a heightened scrutiny on my family, I took the opportunity to fake my own death to protect my identity as the Hood.

Three years ago, Roy Harper confessed to being the Hood.
To protect me. And then he was attacked in prison. I have lived with that guilt for three years. I am not about to let Oliver take the blame for me the same way that Roy did. And that's why I'm here. To set the record straight.
You're right. William, I just started being your dad, okay? I love being your dad. And nothing is gonna take me away from you. Especially not Ricardo Diaz.
We always knew our lives would be high-risk. Eventually, we got to a point where... worrying about that seemed less important than enjoying the time we have together. Even if that was on a battlefield. [opens the car door] Also... getting divorced helped. [gets out of the car]
Hey, um... I shouldn't have pushed you away. I should have trusted you to keep yourself safe, and I should've trusted my abilities to help keep you safe.
