Oliver Queen : You want me? Come on!
Vigilante : Lucky you. You get one more day.

[Oliver groans as he turns off the TV reporting on his impeachment hearing]
Dr. Schwartz : Well, sounds like you need a note from your doctor, Mr. Mayor.
Oliver Queen : This is ridiculous--I know what real injury feels like.
Dr. Schwartz : I can only imagine, given your other job. And you're right--your CAT scan is clear.
Oliver Queen : Good.
Dr. Schwartz : [Oliver goes to get up and leave] Ah-ah-ah, not so fast. Look, I can't discharge you without a few more hours of observation.
Oliver Queen : Doctor Schwartz...
Dr. Schwartz : People can withstand only so much strain, and being both Mayor and *him*, it's unsustainable.
Oliver Queen : I assure you, my body can handle it.
Dr. Schwartz : I'm not talking about your body, Mr. Queen... I'm talking about this:
[gesturing to her head]
Dr. Schwartz : The mind needs rest, or at least someone to take your thoughts off all the evil you face each day.
Oliver Queen : Dr. Schwartz, are you prescribing me a girlfriend?
Dr. Schwartz : Or just a friend.

Reporter : [On TV] News of the cover-up sent shockwaves through City Hall, forcing Council members into enacting a rarely-used impeachment clause. Mayor Oliver Queen's administration might be over.
Felicity Smoak : [Felicity mutes the TV] That woman never reports the news.
Oliver Queen : [Oliver walks in] It'll work out. I'm just waiting for my opening
Felicity Smoak : There's that optimism again.
Oliver Queen : Chase is re presenting me, so I'm gonna beat this.
[Deep breath]
Oliver Queen : How are we doing with the data pull from Prometheus' mother's house?
Felicity Smoak : The sniffer pulled about a petabyte worth of data. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack, but I am working on it.
Oliver Queen : Good. There's something else that I could use your help with.
Felicity Smoak : Okay.
Oliver Queen : Susan Williams.
Felicity Smoak : Oh.
Oliver Queen : She's not returning my calls.
Felicity Smoak : Am I really the best person to come to or love-life advice?
Oliver Queen : Well, she's not returning my calls since you and Thea got her fired.
Felicity Smoak : Well, in my defense, I didn't know that was gonna be Thea's play.
Oliver Queen : I know, but I still need your help because Thea is not budging.
Felicity Smoak : Look, I know how severely problematic what I'm about to say is, but Susan is your girlfriend, so if anyone is going to fix it, I think it has to be you.
Oliver Queen : I'm trying, but like I said, she's not returning my calls, and you may have noticed, I'm sort of facing impeachment this week.
Felicity Smoak : Okay... Yeah, I'll do my best.
Oliver Queen : Thank you very much.
Felicity Smoak : [Oliver starts to walk off. Felicity gently grabs his arm and he spins back to face her] Um, for what it's worth, and everything I know about politics I got from Keepin' It 1600, but I do think you're gonna beat this thing.
Oliver Queen : What makes you so sure?
Felicity Smoak : To Star City, Mayor Oliver Queen is a hero.
-
Oliver Queen : If the Council is not gonna let me testify at the hearing, then I need to take my case directly to the public.
Adrian Chase : A press conference? Mind filling me in on who you're throwing under the bus?
Oliver Queen : The Green Arrow.
-
Thea Queen : Don't look at me like that--this isn't blackmail, it's politics.
Oliver Queen : This isn't hardball--this is cruel.
Thea Queen : What would be cruel is the people of this city not having you as the Mayor. The Anti-Crime Unit, low-income housing, commonsense gun legislation... Ollie, in the short amount of time you've been doing this, you've done a remarkable job. Please, just let me do what I have to do to help you keep doing that.
Oliver Queen : Felicity told me about this Kullens thing because of something that John said to her. Thea, when you fight fire with fire, you are probably gonna get burned.
Thea Queen : I won't... It'll be fine.
Oliver Queen : Like it was with Susan? You destroyed her career, now you've graduated to blackmail. Where does it stop?
-
Thea Queen : Okay, well I have a very political idea...
Oliver Queen : I'm listening.
Thea Queen : Like Adrian said, the Council needs somebody thrown to the wolves, and I think it should be Malone.
Oliver Queen : Thea!
Thea Queen : What? Half the SCPD is corrupt, so it's not hard to believe. And he is no longer with us, so he wouldn't really mind. That way, the cover-up is no longer about the Green Arrow--it becomes about protecting Malone's reputation for the sake of his family.
Oliver Queen : Now you're gonna destroy his reputation? No.
Thea Queen : But Ollie...
Oliver Queen : Thea, it's not even a question.
Thea Queen : Okay.
Oliver Queen : [Turning to Quentin] How do we think the Counci's gonna vote?
Quentin Lance : It's a pretty even split with Kullens as the swing vote.
