Oh, Laurel, there's something I want to say.
What? One last hilarious Russian joke for the road?
Sorry to doubt you. I guess leopard really can change spots. Or in your case, bird, feather.
I thought you said you weren't sentimental.
Maybe I change, too, like you.
We've had this exact conversation already.
What are you talking about?
Fully aware how this is going to sound. Quinton, I'm trapped in some sort of... time loop, where the same events keep repeating themselves.
Like Groundhog Day.
Sure. Except this one ends with a lot of people dead, including the two of us.
So you're telling me we're-we're in some kind of a alternate reality based on the plot of a Bill Murray movie?
Well, I was gonna go with a Tom Cruise flick, but basically. Also just really glad that you believe me.
Well, it's not the craziest thing you ever told me.
You know, getting hunted like this in a space like this is kind of like what I was doing to you all those years ago. Remember? Sort of makes sense I'd go out like this now, don't you think?
Would you please just save your strength?
For what? Oliver, you take care of these guys, there'll be more behind them, there will be more behind them. There is no saving me from this! Okay? You ever think that's the point? Maybe you're not supposed to.
I'm not giving up. And you're not giving up, either.
Oh, no, no, no. I'm not giving up. Maybe I'm giving in. You see, I've been outrunning death for a while now. The siege, the island, but when Diaz shot me, that felt different, like I was finally at the end, and I made my peace with that. And maybe it's time you did, too.
What made you decide that I wasn't your enemy anymore? What changed your mind?
Heh. Oh, you know, my daughters, for one. Because I didn't raise dummies, and, uh, you know, if they were okay with you, then I figured I should be, too. Yeah.
They trusted me, and you trusted them.
Yeah. They got me to listen to what I always knew in my gut, that we were on the same side, and fighting for the same goal, and it just took me a while to get there. Sorry.
Why would the Monitor let me see Quentin one last time?
It was a reward, for not betraying me.
Didn't really think rewards were his brand.
No. We were wrong about him.
And Lyla was right? That's annoying. So why did you have to learn to let Lance go?
Because deep down, I still believed that I could fight my fate. Now I know I can't.
The name of the island they found me on is Lian Yu. It's Mandarin for purgatory. Now I understand why. The memories, the pain, I've never escaped them. They're always with me, a reminder of what I had to endure, with only one thought, one goal -survive. To save the multiverse, I must become something else. To do that, I have to return where my journey began - Purgatory.
Guess I shouldn't be surprised the Black Canary knows how to fly.
Flying's easy. Landing's the hard part. [Rene and Roy look at her in alarmed concern] Kidding.
You know, I, uh... I never expected to be on a mission with you like this, you know. I'm glad you're here.
No offense, but shouldn't this Kodak moment be with you and someone else?
What?
You and Mia.
Oh. Trying to give her a little space.
Sure you're not trying to avoid a difficult conversation?
I'm pretty sure she doesn't want to talk to me, Laurel.
Oliver, don't be an idiot, okay? All that girl wants to do is live up to her father.
Fine. All this father wants is to complete this mission so that my kids actually have a world to live in. We are almost there. Come on.
Oliver. A piece of advice. Don't leave this island with more regrets than you already have buried here.
I'm sorry our first meeting had to be this. I envisioned getting to know my future son over a meal, not en route to a plane crash.
Mm, this... this feels about right for our family. Most of our milestones got interrupted by some sort of international emergency or another.
Yeah. I guess your dad and I weren't really there for you and JJ.
You were there when it counted. Besides, I was beyond proud to be the son of the two superspies that co-founded Knightwatch.
You never mentioned that.
I think maybe I wasn't supposed to. Time travel rules and all.
Lyla?
Not anymore. I'm now a Harbinger of things to come.
So, does that mean that...
Yes. The Crisis has begun.
I'm not going to lie. Your zen is kind of creeping me out.
Thank you.
But there hasn't been crime in star city for 20 years
what is that, the city's motto now?
Oh, to be in my 20s again.
Ick. Hard pass. I was married at 21.
Seriously? Who are you?
You know, I could get used to all this free alcohol.
So that means you will not be paying your tab downstairs?
I thought it was a friends drink for free kind of place.
