- Alex Davis: I think your brother's onto us.
- Thea Queen: No. No, and even if he was, it's not like he's not the boss of me.
- Alex Davis: No, he's the boss of me.
- Thea Queen: I know.
- Alex Davis: I'm just glad your brother's not a killer.
- Quentin Lance: Not bad. Not quite as powerful as the Green Arrows, but not bad.
- Oliver Queen: Yeah? Maybe I should get him to endorse me.
- Oliver Queen: This isn't just a base of operations. It looks like a staging area.
- Felicity Smoak: For what?
- Oliver Queen: Equipment. Military crates marked G6:5. Does that mean anything?
- Felicity Smoak: Maybe they're playing bingo.
- Oliver Queen: Let's assume that's not it.
- Felicity Smoak: Deadly bingo.
- Felicity Smoak: [Felicity paces in front of Oliver] Leaving to fight Ra's on a mountaintop, going undercover with the League of Assassins, dating the Huntress...
- Oliver Queen: What are you doing?
- Felicity Smoak: Oh, I'm just listing all of the terrible ideas you've had over the last three years, of which throwing in with Damien Darhk has got to be the *worst*.
- Oliver Queen: I'm not throwing in with Damien Darhk--I am *using* him to get at HIVE.
- Felicity Smoak: Isn't Lance already our man on the inside?
- Oliver Queen: Lance has lost Darhk's trust making *this* the only way.
- Felicity Smoak: To get yourself killed. You remember the last time you tried to take down an evil organization from the inside?
- Oliver Queen: This is different.
- Felicity Smoak: Why? Because you'd be doing it as Oliver Queen?
- Oliver Queen: Yep.
- Felicity Smoak: What about your mayoral campaign? You cannot be an effective candidate for mayor and Darhk's undercover stooge.
- Oliver Queen: Taking down Darhk is more important, especially now that we know he has Andy under his thumb.
- Felicity Smoak: First, there is a whole long list of things we do not know about Andy. Second, you didn't decide to run for Mayor to take down Darhk--you did it to give the city something the Green Arrow can't give them: hope, inspiration. Don't lose sight of that--not even for John.
