- Talia al Ghul: [as a squad of security guards in riot gear approach them,] Do you think they realize they're outmatched?
- Oliver Queen: I think they're about to.
- Dinah Drake: Since when are you two friends?
- Felicity Smoak: Well, we decided to start a support group for women who've been attacked by Diaz.
- Laurel Lance: Or his assassins. Do you care to join?
- Dinah Drake: Uh, thanks, I'll pass, but, hey, maybe you should get back to witness protection and you should on back to Earth Two before you both remember you hate each other.
- Felicity Smoak: Why is an arrest report from 1985 in the same box as an employee file from 2002? It doesn't make any sense!
- Dinah Drake: I know. Well, after the department switched to computerized files, they just stopped taking care of this place.
- Laurel Lance: You mean, the SCPD is late to the digital party? Wow! Shocking.
- Talia al Ghul: You've seen what happens to people who go into that room. They come out in body bags.
- Oliver Queen: Talia, we are doing this my way, or we're not doing it at all.
- Talia al Ghul: You'd risk both our lives to help these prisoners, despite knowing that every last one is a murderer or worse?
- Oliver Queen: These people are being treated like they are disposable. No one deserves that.
- Talia al Ghul: Tell me, did you feel that compassion when you rammed a sword through my father's chest?
- Oliver Queen: No, because back then, I still allowed the monster that you helped unleash take over.
- Talia al Ghul: Don't insinuate that my father's death was my fault.
- Oliver Queen: Look. I - Ra's' death was my fault. I couldn't see past what he intended to do to my city, so I didn't stop and think about his family, and for that, I am truly sorry. I know you hate me... But I was your student once, and we trusted each other completely. We need to find that trust again because it is the only way both of us will get what we want.
- Oliver Queen: There was a time, Talia, when aligning yourself with a man like Ricardo Diaz would have been beneath you.
- Talia al Ghul: I do what it takes to survive. Another lesson you seem to have forgotten. I taught you to separate the man from the monster. Instead, you exposed your identity for all the world to see and became the monster you always feared you were.
- Oliver Queen: What do you want from me?
- Talia al Ghul: There is a way out of Slabside, and I need your help to escape.
- Oliver Queen: You expect me to help you after all the pain and the suffering that you inflicted on my family?
- Talia al Ghul: What does it tell you that I would even ask for your help after what you've done to mine? You don't understand what they do to people down here.
- Oliver Queen: They reform criminals.
- Talia al Ghul: They destroy them. You and I once stood on the same side. We can do it again.
- Oliver Queen: You stood on the same side as Adrian Chase and my son lost his mother, so now I'm here, trying to save what's left of my family because I'm stuck in a cycle of violence, and I have been stuck there since the moment you told me what to do with my father's list.
- Talia al Ghul: You don't possibly believe that, Oliver.
- Oliver Queen: There's no Oliver in here. I'm Inmate 4587, so I'm asking you, however you broke into my cell... Get out.
- Curtis Holt: I didn't take you for someone as crude as a terrorist.
- Javelin: What you call crude I see as lucrative. All I needed was a fall guy, and you were far too perfect a mark.
- Curtis Holt: Perhaps you are forgetting you are standing right in front of the bomb.
- Javelin: You've heard of remote detonation, haven't you? For someone so smart, are you really this dumb?
- Curtis Holt: Well, actually, if I wanted to do something super-dumb, I'd probably do something stupid like tackle you to the ground, take that tablet, and shove it down your throat.
- Oliver Queen: All those years ago, you were wrong. Giving the monster an identity didn't contain the darkness. It just gave it power. Separating in to two selves- hiding in the shadows - that was never the answer.
- Deputy Director Bell: I read through your mission report on the Switzerland op. Director Michaels signed off, but I noticed a few abnormalities.
- John Diggle: Sir, if this is regarding the 23 minutes of unaccounted time in our field log, it's because we took a pit stop... for chocolate.
- Curtis Holt: When in Rome, right?
- [offering the box of chocolates]
- Curtis Holt: Do you want some? You should have some.
- Deputy Director Bell: Actually, I'm diabetic.
- Curtis Holt: [withdrawing it] Oh, okay. Don't have some.
- Laurel Lance: Visiting your husband is not gonna cause our operation to fall apart.
- [her computer beeps]
- Laurel Lance: Although, when the blinking dot disappears, that's not good, is it?
- Felicity Smoak: Crap.
- Laurel Lance: Hey, I want it noted for the record, I did not touch anything.
- Laurel Lance: [on the phone] That doesn't make any sense. Mr. Queen has two hours of visitation left this month, so I suggest you get it straighted out, or I will have the U.S. Attorney so far up your ass that you'll have to turn to the left and cough.
- Felicity Smoak: Whew! I mean, no offense to Black Siren, but I actually think you're scarier as an attorney.
- Laurel Lance: Black Siren gets results.
- Felicity Smoak: The tracker is now paired with a facial recognition program, targeting all CCTV and traffic cameras within a five-mile radius of the Silencer's location, updating in real time.
- Laurel Lance: So when the Silencer finally finds Diaz, we'll get an immediate alert?
- Felicity Smoak: Yeah, as long as you don't adjust any of the inputs, change any of the settings, or click any buttons. I mean, basically, don't touch anything, and yeah, we will be... we will be-we will be just fine.
- Laurel Lance: I'm not sure I need an in-person tutorial on how to watch a blinking dot blink.
- Oliver Queen: You survived the explosion on Lian Yu. How?
- Talia al Ghul: You know I'm not so easily defeated.
- Oliver Queen: What are you doing here?
- Talia al Ghul: Oh. I ran afoul of an old foe in Gotham. What surprised me was to see you here, a prisoner.
- Oliver Queen: Where's Ricardo Diaz?
- Talia al Ghul: I don't know.
- Oliver Queen: A liar.
- Talia al Ghul: I'm many things, but a liar is not one of them.
- Felicity Smoak: The prisoner that knew Oliver said they took him somewhere called Level Two. We need to figure out what that is.
- Laurel Lance: We?
- Felicity Smoak: Consider it a lesson in empathy.
- [typing on her laptop]
- Felicity Smoak: Okay, I'm accessing the federal Slabside records; employment, inmate sentencing, infrastructure.
- Laurel Lance: I don't know what's more amusing, the fact that you just broke six laws in front of me or that you're forcing me to feel empathetic about it.
- Oliver Queen: Where's Dr. Parker?
- Magee: He said you're ready for phase two, which means you belong to me now. Move.
- Oliver Queen: Where are you taking me?
- Magee: Down the rabbit hole.
- Curtis Holt: Why is there a mock-up photo of me IDed as Dr. Somto?
- John Diggle: We need an undercover operative to impersonate Somto and make contact with Byrd. Somto claims he and Byrd only interfaced online, never face to face, thus the mock-up.
- Curtis Holt: Uh, why does it have to be my face?
- Deputy Director Bell: We need someone who can pull off a convincing charade. You have fourteen PHDs, including one in biochemical engineering. And you're fluent in five different languages, including Somto's native tongue.
- Curtis Holt: Six, actually. Nowaways, I'm more of a "chill in the back of a van surrounded by monitors" kind of a guy.
- John Diggle: Curtis, we don't need you to engage. Just put eyes on Byrd. Me and my team will handle the takedown and package retrieval.
- Deputy Director Bell: Also, it's an order.
- Curtis Holt: Target sighted. Heading to the sketchy loading dock to confirm.
- John Diggle: Okay, Curtis. Once you get firm confirmation, we'll move in, but not before, so keep your cool, okay?
- Curtis Holt: Sure. That'll be easy to do with wool pants.
- Laurel Lance: Slabside is denying Felicity access to Oliver.
- Felicity Smoak: They're keeping him somewhere called Level Two, but there's no record of anything at Slabside called Level Two, so we dove into the employee records, and we found something.
- Laurel Lance: Yes, a psychiatrist by the name of Dr. Jarrett Parker, with a "P".
- Felicity Smoak: We need you to check to see if there are any complaints made to the SCPD about Parker during his private practice.
- Dinah Drake: I'm surprised you didn't just hack SCPD yourself.
- Felicity Smoak: Oh, I did. There was just nothing in the digital records. I was hoping we could do this the old-fashioned way and go through the hard copies in the SCPD archive.
- Dinah Drake: Okay. But what makes us believe this Parker guy is shady?
- Laurel Lance: Slabside doesn't have a psychiatric program for their inmates.
- Felicity Smoak: Whatever Parker is doing is not being reported. Please. If Oliver is in trouble, we have to help him.
- Curtis Holt: Lyla copied the bank data because she suspected A.R.G.U.S. had something to hide. That data led us to Byrd. If there's a deeper connection that A.R.G.U.S. doesn't want anyone to find, I figured we should know first. Worth the risk, right?
- John Diggle: Did you find anything?
- Curtis Holt: Check it out.
- John Diggle: It's a painting? It took you all night to decrypt a single image?
- Curtis Holt: Do you realize how many decryption algorithms I had to run just to get the drive to boot up? This thing's security has security.
- Dinah Drake: You know, Slabside's got a real PR nightmare on their hands right now. What if we could use that for more than just shutting down Level Two?
- Laurel Lance: We can use this to appeal Oliver's conviction.
- Felicity Smoak: We can use it to get Oliver out of prison.
- Dr. Jarrett Parker: I'm disappointed in you, 4587. It's always so unfortunate when a study doesn't work out. But this failure is especially painful.
- Oliver Queen: You're a monster.
- Dr. Jarrett Parker: We could have done such great things together, helped so many people.
- Oliver Queen: This isn't helping people!
- Dr. Jarrett Parker: I misjudged you. I thought after our work together, you were committed to breaking your family's cycle of violence.
- Oliver Queen: My father pushed people away. He kept secrets. And I made those same mistakes. But if I choose to break this cycle, I'm gonna do it my way.
- Dr. Jarrett Parker: I suggest you hold very still, 4587.
- Oliver Queen: My name... is Oliver Queen!
