1
00:00:02,231 --> 00:00:05,067
My name is Oliver Queen.

2
00:00:05,276 --> 00:00:07,945
After five years on a hellish island...

3
00:00:08,112 --> 00:00:10,823
I have come home with only one goal:

4
00:00:11,032 --> 00:00:13,117
To save my city.

5
00:00:13,451 --> 00:00:16,537
But to do so, I can't be the killer I once was.

6
00:00:18,581 --> 00:00:21,751
To honor my friend's memory,
I must be someone else.

7
00:00:23,461 --> 00:00:27,048
I must be something else.

8
00:00:28,841 --> 00:00:30,092
Previously on Arrow:

9
00:00:30,301 --> 00:00:32,094
It can save you or it could kill you.

10
00:00:32,303 --> 00:00:34,096
Slade has the Mirakuru in his system.

11
00:00:34,430 --> 00:00:37,308
The ones who survived,
they became someone else.

12
00:00:38,476 --> 00:00:41,896
It's the Mirakuru, it's messing with your head.

13
00:00:42,146 --> 00:00:44,482
I know you and your new friends
have the Mirakuru.

14
00:00:44,648 --> 00:00:48,152
In exchange, I'll promise you and
your friends safe passage off this island.

15
00:00:48,402 --> 00:00:50,154
Slade's gone and he took the Mirakuru.

16
00:00:50,404 --> 00:00:52,364
You know who he is
under that hood, don't you?

17
00:00:52,573 --> 00:00:57,453
Once he has lost everyone
and everything he values...

18
00:00:58,496 --> 00:01:01,457
I will drive an arrow through his eye.

19
00:01:18,099 --> 00:01:23,270
Welcome to St. Walker's, alderman.
Or should I call you mayor?

20
00:01:23,479 --> 00:01:25,523
Thank you for letting me
come by so late.

21
00:01:25,689 --> 00:01:27,691
Oh, I can imagine how busy your schedule is.

22
00:01:27,942 --> 00:01:30,945
It's really great of you taking the time
to come visit your aunt.

23
00:01:31,153 --> 00:01:33,114
Her health has taken a bad turn.

24
00:01:33,322 --> 00:01:35,199
Of course.

25
00:01:35,407 --> 00:01:37,451
She's family.

26
00:01:41,872 --> 00:01:46,460
Maya, look who came to see you.
It's your nephew, Sebastian.

27
00:01:47,419 --> 00:01:50,047
Don't go, please.

28
00:01:50,214 --> 00:01:53,342
We'll be fine. Thank you.

29
00:01:55,970 --> 00:01:58,389
Still worshipping the old gods, I see.

30
00:01:58,556 --> 00:02:01,016
They're the last thing I have of your father's.

31
00:02:01,225 --> 00:02:03,394
They protect me.

32
00:02:03,561 --> 00:02:06,230
He was supposed to protect you.

33
00:02:06,647 --> 00:02:09,900
A friend of mine, Laurel Lance,
came by to visit you a couple days ago.

34
00:02:10,067 --> 00:02:12,153
Do you remember her?

35
00:02:14,530 --> 00:02:16,323
Yes, she is.

36
00:02:16,699 --> 00:02:18,576
What did you both talk about?

37
00:02:20,327 --> 00:02:23,164
- Nothing.
- You know I don't like it when you lie to me.

38
00:02:25,457 --> 00:02:27,418
I told her the truth.

39
00:02:27,585 --> 00:02:32,256
That you killed him. Your father.

40
00:02:36,927 --> 00:02:42,766
I don't know what came over me.
I am so, so sorry.

41
00:02:42,975 --> 00:02:45,477
I hurt you, mijo.

42
00:02:50,107 --> 00:02:53,903
But you are my child, my son.

43
00:02:54,111 --> 00:02:56,363
And I hurt you.

44
00:02:57,948 --> 00:03:00,242
I forgive you, Mama.

45
00:03:07,291 --> 00:03:10,085
I forgive you for everything.

46
00:03:44,245 --> 00:03:47,081
Please, I don't—
Look, I don't know anything.

47
00:03:47,289 --> 00:03:51,168
- The man in the skull mask. Where is he?
- I don't know what you're talking about.

48
00:03:51,418 --> 00:03:53,671
He's been experimenting on people
in the Glades.

49
00:03:53,837 --> 00:03:57,132
He's leaving a trail of corpses
with blood running from their eyes.

50
00:03:57,341 --> 00:04:01,053
No, no, no. I deal in stolen merchandise.
That is it.

51
00:04:02,179 --> 00:04:04,431
Don't. Please. Come on.

52
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,850
- Ask him what color his shoes are.
- What?

53
00:04:07,059 --> 00:04:10,312
You want this guy to take a polygraph
via Bluetooth, cool...

54
00:04:10,521 --> 00:04:15,276
but I need to hear him establish a baseline.
I need to hear him tell the truth just once.

55
00:04:15,484 --> 00:04:18,487
What color are your shoes?

56
00:04:18,696 --> 00:04:20,197
What?

57
00:04:20,364 --> 00:04:21,573
They're blue.

58
00:04:22,825 --> 00:04:24,493
He's not lying.

59
00:04:25,286 --> 00:04:26,704
Please.

60
00:04:30,207 --> 00:04:31,792
He's out there.

61
00:04:33,002 --> 00:04:35,879
- Somewhere.
- Come home.

62
00:04:36,088 --> 00:04:38,173
We can't do any more tonight.

63
00:04:41,677 --> 00:04:43,220
Slade?

64
00:04:44,096 --> 00:04:45,723
Slade?

65
00:04:47,016 --> 00:04:48,600
Thought maybe he'd come back here.

66
00:04:48,809 --> 00:04:52,229
He has the Mirakuru serum in his bloodstream.
He's not thinking clearly.

67
00:04:52,479 --> 00:04:54,565
So, what do we do now?

68
00:04:55,482 --> 00:04:57,401
I don't know, Sara.

69
00:04:59,737 --> 00:05:01,238
The sensor grid is still active.

70
00:05:01,405 --> 00:05:04,908
So at least we're gonna know
if Ivo and his men come back to the island.

71
00:05:05,159 --> 00:05:07,411
So we just sit here and wait?

72
00:05:07,619 --> 00:05:11,915
Do you have any other ideas?
Because right now, I'm open to suggestions.

73
00:05:13,167 --> 00:05:18,422
We find Slade
and maybe we consider Ivo's offer.

74
00:05:18,672 --> 00:05:19,757
What?

75
00:05:20,007 --> 00:05:23,260
Look, if we get the serum back from Slade,
then we can go home.

76
00:05:23,510 --> 00:05:26,430
And I can try to talk to Ivo.
I can get him to listen to me.

77
00:05:26,638 --> 00:05:29,391
Like he listened
before he shot Shado in the head?

78
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,145
- He's just tired and he's frustrated.
- What?

79
00:05:34,438 --> 00:05:37,775
You don't understand what finding
the Mirakuru serum has meant to him.

80
00:05:38,025 --> 00:05:39,860
You're right, Sara. I don't understand.

81
00:05:40,069 --> 00:05:43,530
And I don't get how you could even consider
trusting him after what he did.

82
00:05:43,739 --> 00:05:45,449
He's not evil.

83
00:05:46,241 --> 00:05:48,619
He kept me safe on that ship for over a year.

84
00:05:49,203 --> 00:05:52,956
And I mean, not just safe.
He taught me things.

85
00:05:53,165 --> 00:05:56,710
- And I learned a lot.
- I learned a lot too.

86
00:05:57,252 --> 00:06:00,631
This island taught me
that you can't trust anyone.

87
00:06:15,062 --> 00:06:17,981
Ms. Lance? I have a call for you on line two.

88
00:06:18,232 --> 00:06:20,150
Thank you, Katherine.

89
00:06:23,070 --> 00:06:24,238
Laurel Lance.

90
00:06:24,405 --> 00:06:26,782
This is Nurse Downey from St. Walker's.

91
00:06:26,949 --> 00:06:30,953
You asked me to call if there was
any changes in Maya Resik's condition.

92
00:06:31,161 --> 00:06:33,997
I'm sad to report she passed away.

93
00:06:34,206 --> 00:06:38,085
- What?
- Her heart gave out on her, poor soul.

94
00:06:38,293 --> 00:06:40,838
You think Sebastian Blood,
the saint of Starling City...

95
00:06:41,088 --> 00:06:44,007
- ... killed his mother?
- He was the last person to see her alive.

96
00:06:44,258 --> 00:06:46,927
- That isn't a coincidence.
- He's visiting a sick relative.

97
00:06:47,136 --> 00:06:50,472
- You're right, that's very suspicious.
- He didn't go there to visit her.

98
00:06:50,681 --> 00:06:54,852
He went there to kill her, to cover up the fact
that as a child, he killed his father.

99
00:06:55,102 --> 00:06:57,980
- Maya Resik told me what happened.
- From inside a padded room.

100
00:06:58,188 --> 00:07:02,985
He had her forcibly committed. She tells me
the truth and two days later, has a heart attack.

101
00:07:03,277 --> 00:07:06,113
- You don't find that strange?
- There's no record Maya Resik...

102
00:07:06,321 --> 00:07:10,451
was Blood's mother, and the hospital said
she was in the late stages of heart disease.

103
00:07:10,659 --> 00:07:12,828
I need you to call in a favor
with Judge Carlin.

104
00:07:13,036 --> 00:07:16,373
Get a search warrant for Sebastian's
campaign headquarters.

105
00:07:16,623 --> 00:07:19,751
- I have to start somewhere.
- Laurel, this isn't some casual request.

106
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,463
I'm the ADA who took Vertigo on live TV.

107
00:07:22,671 --> 00:07:26,550
I take a shot at Sebastian Blood and miss,
my career is done.

108
00:07:27,009 --> 00:07:28,510
Adam.

109
00:07:29,261 --> 00:07:31,388
- Please.
- I'm sorry, Laurel.

110
00:07:31,638 --> 00:07:33,307
You're on your own.

111
00:07:38,187 --> 00:07:39,980
Hello, Roy.

112
00:07:42,858 --> 00:07:45,903
Lurking in an alley, that's not at all creepy.

113
00:07:46,153 --> 00:07:49,573
When I ran the club,
I learned all the secret entrances.

114
00:07:49,781 --> 00:07:53,160
I never got a chance to thank you
for saving my mother's life.

115
00:07:53,577 --> 00:07:57,831
Thea told me.
She said that you were very brave.

116
00:07:58,290 --> 00:08:02,085
- I did what anyone would have done.
- Not anyone.

117
00:08:02,294 --> 00:08:06,048
Takes a lot to run towards danger,
not away from it.

118
00:08:06,798 --> 00:08:08,592
That sounded like praise.

119
00:08:08,842 --> 00:08:11,220
I thought where I was concerned,
you didn't approve.

120
00:08:12,346 --> 00:08:15,682
Thea said that you also got hit
by some falling debris.

121
00:08:16,558 --> 00:08:20,229
- How you feeling?
- Actually, it mostly missed me.

122
00:08:20,437 --> 00:08:22,397
I'm fine. Look, I gotta get back to work.

123
00:08:29,321 --> 00:08:32,824
Has Roy mentioned anything about the man
in the skull mask who injected him?

124
00:08:33,033 --> 00:08:36,286
Roy is not the kind of guy who is comfortable
discussing his feelings.

125
00:08:36,453 --> 00:08:38,539
Not like you and me.

126
00:08:39,456 --> 00:08:42,960
Don't yell at me, but I think we need a
new plan to find this creepy mask guy.

127
00:08:43,210 --> 00:08:45,045
Scaring lowlifes isn't yielding results.

128
00:08:45,254 --> 00:08:47,464
Felicity, I am open
to any and all suggestions.

129
00:08:47,714 --> 00:08:49,091
Maybe we're overthinking this.

130
00:08:49,299 --> 00:08:53,136
What if the mask simply got wind that you
were after him and decided to skip town?

131
00:08:53,387 --> 00:08:58,058
He didn't go to the trouble of re-creating the
serum and testing on people just to walk away.

132
00:08:58,267 --> 00:09:00,811
He is still out there
and we need to locate him.

133
00:09:04,565 --> 00:09:07,109
Lance. For the Arrow.

134
00:09:08,485 --> 00:09:10,612
- Yes, detective.
- Can we meet?

135
00:09:10,821 --> 00:09:12,281
What is it?

136
00:09:12,614 --> 00:09:14,658
Someone wants to talk to you.

137
00:09:21,498 --> 00:09:23,166
Hello, Laurel.

138
00:09:23,375 --> 00:09:24,751
You're late.

139
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,964
I had to circle around to make sure there
wasn't a SWAT team waiting for me again.

140
00:09:29,172 --> 00:09:30,507
That's fair.

141
00:09:30,674 --> 00:09:34,886
Trust me, I wouldn't have asked my father
to put me in touch with you if I had any choice.

142
00:09:35,095 --> 00:09:36,680
- What do you need?
- Sebastian Blood.

143
00:09:36,930 --> 00:09:39,099
He's about to be the new mayor
of Starling City.

144
00:09:39,308 --> 00:09:43,186
- I know who he is.
- No, you don't. No one does.

145
00:09:43,812 --> 00:09:48,317
A few weeks ago, I was approached by
your groupie, Roy Harper, and his girlfriend.

146
00:09:48,525 --> 00:09:52,362
They asked me to investigate
the death of Max Stanton.

147
00:09:54,114 --> 00:09:56,533
You think Blood was involved
in Stanton's death?

148
00:09:56,700 --> 00:09:59,953
Blood or a man that worked for him
named Cyrus Gold.

149
00:10:02,873 --> 00:10:07,711
Gold killed four cops,
including my father's partner, Lucas Hilton.

150
00:10:09,046 --> 00:10:12,341
Blood and Gold knew each other
from the orphanage Blood was raised at.

151
00:10:12,716 --> 00:10:16,386
He would do anything to keep the truth
about his past hidden.

152
00:10:17,137 --> 00:10:19,056
Including murdering his own mother.

153
00:10:20,015 --> 00:10:21,183
Why would he do that?

154
00:10:21,642 --> 00:10:23,727
To hide the fact that he killed his father.

155
00:10:25,646 --> 00:10:29,483
I tried going to the DA.
No one will believe me.

156
00:10:29,691 --> 00:10:32,694
I swear to you,
Sebastian Blood is dangerous.

157
00:10:32,903 --> 00:10:36,573
And you're the only person
in this city who can stop him.

158
00:10:41,703 --> 00:10:44,581
Laurel was right.
I hacked Blood's cell phone records.

159
00:10:44,831 --> 00:10:47,084
He and Gold stayed buddies
since Zandia orphanage.

160
00:10:47,334 --> 00:10:48,669
So, what? They kept in touch.

161
00:10:48,877 --> 00:10:51,546
Doesn't mean Sebastian Blood
is the man in the skull mask.

162
00:10:51,755 --> 00:10:54,966
His last name is Blood.
That can't be a good sign.

163
00:10:55,175 --> 00:10:58,595
He's dedicated his life, risked his life,
to help the people of the Glades.

164
00:10:58,845 --> 00:11:02,599
And in his spare time, he's a murderer
trying to create an army of human weapons?

165
00:11:02,766 --> 00:11:05,977
You're a bodyguard who fights crime
at night with his billionaire boss.

166
00:11:06,186 --> 00:11:09,106
Not a lot of people
show their real face in public.

167
00:11:10,107 --> 00:11:12,109
Oliver, what are you thinking?

168
00:11:12,984 --> 00:11:15,612
Laurel gave me a case number to start with.

169
00:11:17,030 --> 00:11:19,533
We need to know if Sebastian
really killed his father.

170
00:11:19,741 --> 00:11:22,202
Then we figure out if there's a chance
he has the Mirakuru formula.

171
00:11:22,411 --> 00:11:26,248
- I'm on it.
- What if this is just another trap set by Laurel?

172
00:11:26,456 --> 00:11:30,585
She could be setting you up, and this time
you wouldn't have Sara to save you.

173
00:11:35,298 --> 00:11:37,759
Asking a girl to meet you
down by the tracks, Harper?

174
00:11:37,968 --> 00:11:40,929
- Good thing Thea and I are tight.
- I have to show you something.

175
00:11:41,138 --> 00:11:42,889
Easy there, tiger.

176
00:11:46,893 --> 00:11:48,061
You're not even bleeding.

177
00:11:48,270 --> 00:11:50,313
- When did you start juicing?
- I'm not.

178
00:11:50,522 --> 00:11:53,066
Then how do you explain what I just saw?

179
00:11:56,111 --> 00:11:59,990
- You remember that night I went missing?
- Yeah, Thea and I were pissed.

180
00:12:00,157 --> 00:12:03,160
I never told you guys
what really happened to me.

181
00:12:03,326 --> 00:12:05,912
You were right about your friend Max.
He didn't OD.

182
00:12:06,121 --> 00:12:08,832
He was murdered.
He was injected with something...

183
00:12:09,082 --> 00:12:14,171
and I was injected with the same thing.
But it didn't kill me, it made me stronger.

184
00:12:14,337 --> 00:12:16,465
- Thea must be freaking.
- No, she doesn't know.

185
00:12:16,673 --> 00:12:18,842
- I don't want her to.
- Why not?

186
00:12:19,050 --> 00:12:22,554
I can't. Not yet. Not until I know
more about what happened to me.

187
00:12:22,763 --> 00:12:25,849
- I don't wanna scare her.
- And you're not worried about scaring me?

188
00:12:26,057 --> 00:12:28,185
Come on,
I was going crazy not telling someone.

189
00:12:29,102 --> 00:12:31,021
So, what are you gonna do?

190
00:12:31,646 --> 00:12:34,983
Well, the Arrow once told me
all I was good for was taking a beating.

191
00:12:36,359 --> 00:12:39,362
Maybe it's time
I started handing out a few of my own.

192
00:12:39,613 --> 00:12:40,655
I don't follow.

193
00:12:41,323 --> 00:12:46,036
Now I don't need his help to protect this city.
Let's find us a bad guy.

194
00:12:47,788 --> 00:12:50,165
I have good news and bad news.

195
00:12:50,373 --> 00:12:53,710
I suggest the good news first.
Tends to soften the blow of the bad news.

196
00:12:53,877 --> 00:12:59,174
Okay, dealer's choice. Good news is we found
the case file on Sebastian's dad's murder.

197
00:12:59,382 --> 00:13:02,719
- Anything in it to suggest he killed him?
- Oliver, meet bad news.

198
00:13:02,969 --> 00:13:04,471
That file was sealed years ago.

199
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,809
And since the file is over 27 years old,
there is no digital copy for me to hack.

200
00:13:09,017 --> 00:13:12,729
The only hard copy is stored
the old-fashioned way in the city archives.

201
00:13:12,896 --> 00:13:15,398
So I go in and take it the old-fashioned way.

202
00:13:15,649 --> 00:13:19,736
Except security in the file room is so
old-school, you need a keycard to get in...

203
00:13:19,903 --> 00:13:23,657
which even if you had, you wouldn't
know where to start looking for the file.

204
00:13:26,201 --> 00:13:27,994
An assistant DA would.

205
00:13:44,845 --> 00:13:48,056
You said you needed my help.
Now I need yours.

206
00:13:48,265 --> 00:13:51,101
- What do you need?
- You.

207
00:14:01,361 --> 00:14:04,406
Know what I really miss about being home?

208
00:14:05,866 --> 00:14:07,784
My bed.

209
00:14:09,744 --> 00:14:13,707
I don't know if I even remember
what a bed feels like anymore.

210
00:14:14,124 --> 00:14:16,459
And you probably never will.

211
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,795
And neither will I.

212
00:14:18,962 --> 00:14:20,547
Sara.

213
00:14:20,964 --> 00:14:22,632
We are gonna...

214
00:14:23,091 --> 00:14:25,302
We're gonna find a way off the island.

215
00:14:29,723 --> 00:14:32,809
You just have to trust me.

216
00:14:35,186 --> 00:14:39,316
Last time I trusted you
was right before the Gambit went down.

217
00:14:39,941 --> 00:14:42,694
I haven't gotten a chance to say this.

218
00:14:43,194 --> 00:14:44,321
I'm sorry.

219
00:14:45,405 --> 00:14:46,656
I know this is my fault.

220
00:14:46,823 --> 00:14:50,827
And that none of this would have happened
if I hadn't invited you on the boat with me.

221
00:14:53,788 --> 00:14:55,290
That's not exactly true.

222
00:14:56,249 --> 00:14:59,836
I mean, I was the one who said yes.

223
00:15:00,086 --> 00:15:03,757
- And it was only half because of your charm.
- The other half?

224
00:15:04,007 --> 00:15:07,218
Do you remember when you spilled
that beer on me at Tommy's party?

225
00:15:07,510 --> 00:15:13,642
No. But I never left one of Tommy's parties
with my memory intact.

226
00:15:13,850 --> 00:15:15,769
Well, I wasn't even supposed to go.

227
00:15:15,977 --> 00:15:19,105
But I snuck out of the house because
I knew you were gonna be there.

228
00:15:19,314 --> 00:15:24,694
I mean, I had this— Heh.
I had this embarrassing crush on you.

229
00:15:26,112 --> 00:15:27,864
And Laurel, she knew it.

230
00:15:28,615 --> 00:15:31,451
I think that's why the party
got broken up by the cops.

231
00:15:31,660 --> 00:15:33,536
She tipped off our dad.

232
00:15:33,995 --> 00:15:37,540
And I was grounded for a month
and the next thing I knew...

233
00:15:38,041 --> 00:15:40,627
you and Laurel were together.

234
00:15:42,045 --> 00:15:43,964
You think she did all that on purpose?

235
00:15:46,383 --> 00:15:49,052
Not everybody is what they seem.

236
00:15:51,304 --> 00:15:52,973
We should get some sleep.

237
00:16:23,169 --> 00:16:26,047
- You ready for this?
- Whatever it takes.

238
00:16:29,009 --> 00:16:30,051
We're going in.

239
00:16:30,552 --> 00:16:33,430
At least the security cameras
are from this century.

240
00:16:34,431 --> 00:16:35,807
And now they're toast.

241
00:16:36,016 --> 00:16:38,810
You have exactly seven minutes
until the system reboots.

242
00:16:41,855 --> 00:16:43,231
Hey, check it out.

243
00:16:46,943 --> 00:16:48,945
This could take a while.

244
00:16:49,946 --> 00:16:52,282
You have six minutes.

245
00:16:58,955 --> 00:17:02,625
I'm rebooting the monitors.
There's a Trojan plugging our system.

246
00:17:02,876 --> 00:17:05,086
It's probably some punk.

247
00:17:15,430 --> 00:17:16,598
Uh-oh.

248
00:17:19,476 --> 00:17:21,603
- Oliver.
- What's wrong?

249
00:17:21,811 --> 00:17:24,481
It looks like we got
the one rent-a-cop with a brain here.

250
00:17:24,731 --> 00:17:27,150
If there's a camera nearby,
I recommend hiding.

251
00:17:27,984 --> 00:17:29,486
Look, there.

252
00:17:31,404 --> 00:17:32,989
You gotta send some officers here.

253
00:17:33,156 --> 00:17:35,992
Starling's finest will be there any minute.
Get out now.

254
00:17:36,159 --> 00:17:38,620
We're not leaving without the file.

255
00:17:38,828 --> 00:17:39,871
Laurel.

256
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,998
I can't find it.

257
00:17:43,625 --> 00:17:45,418
Up there. Third floor.

258
00:17:52,509 --> 00:17:53,635
Hurry, Oliver.

259
00:18:00,350 --> 00:18:05,688
Wait. "Case number SC-43878." This is it.

260
00:18:05,939 --> 00:18:09,818
Vigilante, we know you're here!
Close everything off, now!

261
00:18:12,779 --> 00:18:16,991
- They're blocking our only way out.
- Not our only way. Go to the east wall and wait.

262
00:18:20,161 --> 00:18:21,412
Hands where I can see them!

263
00:19:00,285 --> 00:19:02,620
I tried going through
all the security footage...

264
00:19:02,787 --> 00:19:05,707
- ... to see if anyone swiped the file.
- Did you see anyone?

265
00:19:05,915 --> 00:19:07,542
Just this.

266
00:19:10,545 --> 00:19:11,588
It's all been erased.

267
00:19:11,796 --> 00:19:14,924
What happened when you reversed
the footprint to see who hacked in?

268
00:19:15,091 --> 00:19:18,094
- I struck out. Must have been an inside job.
- Meaning?

269
00:19:18,303 --> 00:19:22,682
- As a city alderman, Blood would have access.
- Anyone on city payroll could have done this.

270
00:19:22,932 --> 00:19:26,477
He's running for mayor. One hint he
killed his father, his political future is dead.

271
00:19:26,686 --> 00:19:28,438
Wait, I thought you two were friends.

272
00:19:28,855 --> 00:19:31,774
Don't you think you ought to give him
the benefit of the doubt?

273
00:19:31,983 --> 00:19:35,945
Please keep digging into Blood's past
and see if there's anything that can help us.

274
00:19:36,112 --> 00:19:39,449
- Where are you going?
- To give a friend the benefit of the doubt.

275
00:19:43,369 --> 00:19:45,705
What, are you still giving me
the cold shoulder?

276
00:19:45,955 --> 00:19:48,791
You still not telling me
what the hell is going on with you?

277
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,460
Am I interrupting?

278
00:19:50,668 --> 00:19:54,005
He and I would actually have to be talking
for you to be interrupting.

279
00:19:54,214 --> 00:19:55,465
Can I try?

280
00:19:55,673 --> 00:19:57,717
Be my guest.

281
00:19:59,052 --> 00:20:01,304
- Tell her.
- No.

282
00:20:01,512 --> 00:20:02,764
What have you got for me?

283
00:20:02,972 --> 00:20:05,308
This guy in the Glades,
the Starling Slasher...

284
00:20:05,516 --> 00:20:08,186
word on the street is
he's got a thing for prostitutes.

285
00:20:08,394 --> 00:20:11,064
And by "thing," I mean he has a thing
for slicing them up.

286
00:20:11,272 --> 00:20:14,067
- Mostly hunts in Crescent Circle.
- Sounds like a great guy.

287
00:20:14,275 --> 00:20:17,987
Mm. Yeah, problem is, he's some big-shot
lawyer, so no one has the sack to ID him.

288
00:20:18,154 --> 00:20:20,198
Sounds like someone
the Arrow would go after.

289
00:20:20,406 --> 00:20:22,575
- We don't need the Arrow.
- We have to bait him.

290
00:20:22,784 --> 00:20:26,579
What pro is gonna let us
dangle her in front of a psycho?

291
00:20:26,788 --> 00:20:29,040
- No. No. No way. No.
- Hey, Thea. Uh.

292
00:20:29,499 --> 00:20:33,419
Sin has a date.
She was hoping to borrow an outfit.

293
00:20:33,628 --> 00:20:35,380
You know, something slutty.

294
00:20:35,838 --> 00:20:39,759
I have the perfect first-date outfit.
Guarantees a second one.

295
00:20:40,009 --> 00:20:42,512
- Great.
- This guy won't know what hit him.

296
00:20:42,679 --> 00:20:45,765
Or girl. Whatever you're into.

297
00:20:46,015 --> 00:20:49,602
- I could do your makeup or your hair.
- You are not touching the hair, Queen.

298
00:20:49,811 --> 00:20:51,354
Okay.

299
00:21:01,948 --> 00:21:05,535
- You looking for me?
- Sebastian. Good to see you.

300
00:21:05,702 --> 00:21:09,747
You too, man. Listen, I'm so sorry
but I'm right in the middle of a polling snafu.

301
00:21:09,956 --> 00:21:12,250
I'll be quick.
I just had a question about Laurel.

302
00:21:12,458 --> 00:21:14,168
- Is everything okay?
- I'm not sure.

303
00:21:14,377 --> 00:21:16,713
I ran into her the other day.
Something seemed off.

304
00:21:16,921 --> 00:21:19,257
I know you've been
spending a lot of time together.

305
00:21:19,465 --> 00:21:21,759
I just wanted to know if you knew anything.

306
00:21:21,968 --> 00:21:25,555
Well, we've traded phone calls,
but she's in trial, I've been campaigning.

307
00:21:25,722 --> 00:21:30,184
- We haven't really been able to connect.
- Nothing happened between the two of you?

308
00:21:30,393 --> 00:21:32,937
Not an argument or a fight or something?

309
00:21:33,146 --> 00:21:36,899
If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were
acting like a jealous ex-boyfriend.

310
00:21:37,108 --> 00:21:41,154
No, just—
No, I'm just looking out for a friend.

311
00:21:41,362 --> 00:21:43,656
- And I hope you'd do the same.
- Of course.

312
00:21:43,865 --> 00:21:46,617
Listen, I will take care of Laurel.

313
00:21:46,826 --> 00:21:49,078
Thank you for letting me know.

314
00:22:06,721 --> 00:22:08,473
You're new.

315
00:22:09,140 --> 00:22:11,392
- Got to start somewhere, right?
- Get in.

316
00:22:21,277 --> 00:22:23,029
Romantic.

317
00:22:24,614 --> 00:22:27,950
- You're pretty.
- You're disgusting.

318
00:22:29,827 --> 00:22:32,246
I see you'd like to play rough.

319
00:22:42,673 --> 00:22:43,883
Wait.

320
00:22:44,133 --> 00:22:45,426
- I've got money.
- Keep it.

321
00:22:56,354 --> 00:22:58,940
Roy. Roy, stop it, you're killing him.

322
00:23:02,819 --> 00:23:05,196
Sin? Sin, I'm sorry.

323
00:23:05,905 --> 00:23:07,240
We have to call an ambulance.

324
00:23:15,873 --> 00:23:17,333
"Point-blank range.

325
00:23:17,542 --> 00:23:21,045
Single shot to the heart from a low angle."

326
00:23:22,004 --> 00:23:25,842
Obviously the handiwork
of someone quite scared...

327
00:23:26,050 --> 00:23:27,093
and very small.

328
00:23:28,970 --> 00:23:30,888
How come the police didn't arrest you?

329
00:23:31,097 --> 00:23:33,099
I knew how to cover my tracks.

330
00:23:33,307 --> 00:23:36,727
A skill you've obviously lost
since you've gotten bigger.

331
00:23:36,936 --> 00:23:41,482
You know how close you came to allowing
the vigilante to destroy everything?

332
00:23:41,691 --> 00:23:43,985
Someone spoke out of turn.

333
00:23:44,193 --> 00:23:45,945
I've taken care of the problem.

334
00:23:47,864 --> 00:23:51,075
Your mother was not our problem.

335
00:23:51,284 --> 00:23:54,412
- Laurel Lance is.
- You're the one who told me to get close to her.

336
00:23:54,620 --> 00:23:57,373
You said that it was part of the plan
to hurt the vigilante.

337
00:23:57,582 --> 00:24:01,752
It is. But you being sloppy isn't.

338
00:24:02,503 --> 00:24:04,839
Fix this, Mr. Blood.

339
00:24:05,465 --> 00:24:08,468
You don't want me to fix it for you.

340
00:24:13,097 --> 00:24:16,976
Brother Daily.
I need you to take care of something.

341
00:24:30,573 --> 00:24:33,534
Whoever you are, I'm calling the police.

342
00:24:33,743 --> 00:24:35,161
No need to.

343
00:24:35,369 --> 00:24:38,664
- Remember me?
- Officer Daily, right?

344
00:24:38,873 --> 00:24:40,750
What's this all about?

345
00:24:41,584 --> 00:24:44,795
- What are you doing in my apartment?
- We have a warrant.

346
00:24:45,004 --> 00:24:47,965
- A warrant for what?
- Found these in your bedroom, Ms. Lance.

347
00:24:48,174 --> 00:24:50,468
These aren't prescribed to you.
That's a felony.

348
00:24:50,676 --> 00:24:52,762
This is ridiculous.

349
00:24:53,304 --> 00:24:56,140
You're under arrest for possession
of a controlled substance.

350
00:24:56,349 --> 00:24:58,017
You have the right to remain silent.

351
00:24:58,267 --> 00:25:00,436
Anything you say can and will be
used against you in a court of law.

352
00:25:15,826 --> 00:25:17,328
I know what this looks like...

353
00:25:17,787 --> 00:25:20,122
but you have to listen to me.

354
00:25:21,999 --> 00:25:24,085
I know what's happening.

355
00:25:24,460 --> 00:25:27,630
Sebastian Blood, he's setting me up...

356
00:25:27,838 --> 00:25:31,133
because he knows I'm onto him.
He's trying to frame me.

357
00:25:31,342 --> 00:25:33,386
So he planted drugs in your apartment?

358
00:25:34,428 --> 00:25:37,932
No, no. Forget about the drugs.
The point is...

359
00:25:38,140 --> 00:25:41,227
is that he is the one
behind this witch hunt.

360
00:25:41,435 --> 00:25:45,648
Sebastian called your boss.
He's worried about you.

361
00:25:46,607 --> 00:25:50,444
No, no. He wasn't worried about me.

362
00:25:50,653 --> 00:25:53,072
He's just trying to discredit me.

363
00:25:53,322 --> 00:25:54,824
Don't you see what he's doing?

364
00:25:54,991 --> 00:25:56,993
I see that you tested positive for opiates.

365
00:25:57,201 --> 00:26:01,539
I see that you have been lying to me
and I see that you have been stealing from me.

366
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,042
I can explain that.

367
00:26:05,251 --> 00:26:09,005
Every person that stands where you're
standing now says the same thing.

368
00:26:10,214 --> 00:26:12,967
- Dad—
- The DUI, the paranoia about Blood...

369
00:26:13,175 --> 00:26:15,094
you looking like hell.

370
00:26:18,180 --> 00:26:20,975
- You got a problem, Laurel.
- No.

371
00:26:21,392 --> 00:26:25,521
It's addiction. It runs in our family.

372
00:26:27,523 --> 00:26:30,109
You can't pin it on Sebastian Blood.

373
00:26:30,568 --> 00:26:32,903
Daddy, please, you have to believe me.

374
00:26:34,238 --> 00:26:37,950
Please. Please.

375
00:26:39,118 --> 00:26:40,870
I don't, baby.

376
00:26:44,290 --> 00:26:45,583
No, Dad—

377
00:26:53,174 --> 00:26:54,800
How is she?

378
00:26:55,551 --> 00:26:57,219
I don't know.

379
00:26:57,887 --> 00:26:59,972
I don't know anything anymore.

380
00:27:03,684 --> 00:27:05,394
I'll get her home.

381
00:27:08,606 --> 00:27:10,232
Thanks.

382
00:27:19,950 --> 00:27:21,702
Anthony?

383
00:27:23,579 --> 00:27:26,832
- Are you there?
- I'm here, Sara.

384
00:27:27,041 --> 00:27:30,419
I was hoping that you would reach out to me.
Are you alone?

385
00:27:30,961 --> 00:27:32,588
Yes.

386
00:27:36,634 --> 00:27:38,928
Are you all right?

387
00:27:39,095 --> 00:27:40,763
You're not hurt, are you?

388
00:27:40,971 --> 00:27:44,225
Do you even care?
You were gonna shoot me.

389
00:27:44,433 --> 00:27:49,605
No. No, Sara, I swear.
You were never in danger, I swear.

390
00:27:49,814 --> 00:27:53,109
So it's okay because you were
just planning on murdering Shado?

391
00:27:56,862 --> 00:27:59,949
- Her name was Shado?
- Yes.

392
00:28:00,449 --> 00:28:02,368
And you killed her, Anthony.

393
00:28:02,576 --> 00:28:06,455
And I'm gonna have to live with that
for the rest of my life.

394
00:28:06,622 --> 00:28:09,250
I never set out to hurt anyone.

395
00:28:11,001 --> 00:28:14,839
I started this quest to save people.
To save the human race.

396
00:28:16,549 --> 00:28:17,883
I know.

397
00:28:19,844 --> 00:28:20,886
Sara.

398
00:28:21,387 --> 00:28:24,682
I know you think
that this ship rescued you...

399
00:28:24,890 --> 00:28:27,518
when you were stranded at sea.

400
00:28:29,061 --> 00:28:31,147
The truth is...

401
00:28:34,483 --> 00:28:35,526
you rescued me.

402
00:28:38,279 --> 00:28:41,282
But now the darkness
is threatening me again.

403
00:28:43,367 --> 00:28:45,536
I need you, Sara.

404
00:28:47,079 --> 00:28:48,706
Please.

405
00:28:49,331 --> 00:28:51,125
Save me.

406
00:29:07,433 --> 00:29:08,517
How's he doing?

407
00:29:08,684 --> 00:29:11,020
The damage to his head
and lower abdomen is severe.

408
00:29:11,228 --> 00:29:14,648
He ruptured his spleen and he has
massive swelling in his brain.

409
00:29:14,857 --> 00:29:19,278
Thankfully, he got medical attention
quickly, so he's got a shot.

410
00:29:19,528 --> 00:29:21,030
You did a good thing here, Roy.

411
00:29:27,244 --> 00:29:29,538
What happened to you out there?

412
00:29:29,747 --> 00:29:32,208
- I don't know.
- We nearly killed this guy.

413
00:29:32,416 --> 00:29:33,959
Roy?

414
00:29:34,418 --> 00:29:36,253
- Are you okay?
- What are you doing here?

415
00:29:36,462 --> 00:29:37,546
Sin called me.

416
00:29:37,713 --> 00:29:41,050
- Why did you do that?
- Because she was worried about you.

417
00:29:43,093 --> 00:29:44,553
Who is that guy?

418
00:29:44,762 --> 00:29:48,390
He was my date. We put him there.

419
00:29:49,975 --> 00:29:51,060
You did this?

420
00:29:51,227 --> 00:29:54,855
- Just drop it, please?
- Roy, something is happening to you.

421
00:29:55,064 --> 00:29:56,774
I'm not judging you.

422
00:29:56,982 --> 00:29:58,734
I'm not angry with you.

423
00:29:58,943 --> 00:30:01,111
I'm on your side.

424
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,572
I just want to help you.

425
00:30:03,739 --> 00:30:05,449
You can't.

426
00:30:06,325 --> 00:30:09,453
I— I got to go.

427
00:30:10,830 --> 00:30:12,414
Roy.

428
00:30:36,230 --> 00:30:38,399
You haven't said much.

429
00:30:38,607 --> 00:30:40,609
Quietly working on your lecture?

430
00:30:40,818 --> 00:30:42,528
No lecture.

431
00:30:42,736 --> 00:30:45,823
Suppose you think I was
wrong about Sebastian too, then?

432
00:30:46,031 --> 00:30:47,700
I think...

433
00:30:48,325 --> 00:30:50,828
that you have everyone fooled...

434
00:30:51,036 --> 00:30:54,373
because you want people to think
that none of this gets to you.

435
00:30:55,124 --> 00:30:57,918
And that you don't need anyone's help.

436
00:30:58,127 --> 00:31:00,296
- I don't.
- Except I know you.

437
00:31:04,174 --> 00:31:06,010
This isn't you.

438
00:31:10,264 --> 00:31:12,391
What happened to no lectures?

439
00:31:17,146 --> 00:31:19,773
I just— I need a glass of water.

440
00:31:20,524 --> 00:31:22,985
Do you mind? Please.

441
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,716
Leave him. He's not important.

442
00:31:45,925 --> 00:31:48,010
Hello, Laurel.

443
00:31:55,267 --> 00:31:56,852
Laurel.

444
00:32:01,857 --> 00:32:03,609
It's me. Someone kidnapped Laurel.

445
00:32:03,817 --> 00:32:06,987
- Do you know where they took her?
- I think I have a pretty good idea.

446
00:32:36,058 --> 00:32:38,978
If that mask is supposed to scare me...

447
00:32:39,186 --> 00:32:44,900
all that it's doing is confirming
what I've already known for a while now.

448
00:32:47,027 --> 00:32:49,571
You're one sick son of a bitch, Sebastian.

449
00:32:49,780 --> 00:32:53,909
Thirty thousand years ago,
masks invested their wearer with authority.

450
00:32:54,076 --> 00:32:56,078
- Like a god.
- You're insane.

451
00:32:56,286 --> 00:33:00,332
I'm not the one making drug-addled
unsubstantiated accusations...

452
00:33:00,541 --> 00:33:02,209
against Starling's favorite son.

453
00:33:02,418 --> 00:33:06,422
If I can find out the truth,
then others can too.

454
00:33:06,922 --> 00:33:08,590
You found out nothing.

455
00:33:08,841 --> 00:33:11,677
- You know nothing.
- Ugh!

456
00:33:12,928 --> 00:33:15,180
Get away from her...

457
00:33:15,514 --> 00:33:19,893
or I will put you down.

458
00:33:20,102 --> 00:33:24,606
And to think, a few short months ago,
you were trying to arrest him.

459
00:33:24,815 --> 00:33:28,360
You wanted me here. I'm here.

460
00:33:28,569 --> 00:33:31,363
Let her go.

461
00:33:33,532 --> 00:33:36,452
No, I think she should witness this.

462
00:34:32,299 --> 00:34:34,343
Take off his mask.

463
00:34:35,677 --> 00:34:37,638
I need to see.

464
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,145
Sweetheart.

465
00:35:27,563 --> 00:35:29,148
Are you all right?

466
00:35:30,065 --> 00:35:31,567
Yeah.

467
00:35:31,984 --> 00:35:34,736
Looks like Daily
was behind this whole thing.

468
00:35:34,945 --> 00:35:38,073
The son of a bitch volunteered
for the raid that got Hilton killed.

469
00:35:38,282 --> 00:35:42,619
And we found the accelerant that he used
to torch the Langford Institute in his apartment.

470
00:35:43,912 --> 00:35:46,373
I thought it was Sebastian.

471
00:35:47,833 --> 00:35:50,002
I was so sure.

472
00:35:50,794 --> 00:35:51,962
Yeah.

473
00:35:52,171 --> 00:35:54,840
Well, that's the thing about
the booze and the pills.

474
00:35:55,048 --> 00:35:57,843
You know,
the same thing that dulls your pain...

475
00:35:58,385 --> 00:36:00,137
clouds the judgment.

476
00:36:08,478 --> 00:36:10,439
Can we have a minute?

477
00:36:13,609 --> 00:36:15,319
Yeah.

478
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:22,910
Are you here to say "I told you so"?

479
00:36:23,118 --> 00:36:27,289
We're dropping the possession charges
and you won't be charged in Daily's shooting.

480
00:36:27,497 --> 00:36:29,082
It was clearly self-defense.

481
00:36:30,125 --> 00:36:31,793
You don't seem that thrilled for me.

482
00:36:33,795 --> 00:36:35,672
Are you gonna look me in the eye...

483
00:36:35,881 --> 00:36:39,009
and tell me you don't have
a substance-abuse problem?

484
00:36:42,888 --> 00:36:45,849
The DA's office has a generous
severance package.

485
00:36:46,058 --> 00:36:49,061
Wait. Wait, let me explain to DA Spencer.

486
00:36:49,269 --> 00:36:52,773
- I can— I can tell her everything.
- This isn't coming from Spencer, Laurel.

487
00:36:52,981 --> 00:36:55,484
This is me. I'm the one that hired you.

488
00:36:57,527 --> 00:36:59,112
I'm sorry...

489
00:36:59,696 --> 00:37:00,989
but you're done.

490
00:37:11,166 --> 00:37:13,502
Did Laurel really shoot him?

491
00:37:14,544 --> 00:37:18,173
- She saved my life.
- That's a good thing, Oliver.

492
00:37:19,508 --> 00:37:21,218
You okay?

493
00:37:22,344 --> 00:37:26,056
She really had me believing that
Sebastian Blood was a criminal mastermind...

494
00:37:26,265 --> 00:37:31,436
and the only reason that I nearly believed her
was because it was Laurel.

495
00:37:34,439 --> 00:37:37,484
I do have a blind spot
where she's concerned.

496
00:37:39,528 --> 00:37:40,570
Not anymore.

497
00:37:40,779 --> 00:37:43,949
Certainly know how to
talk yourself out of a victory.

498
00:37:44,366 --> 00:37:47,035
- It's a gift.
- Take the win, man.

499
00:37:47,244 --> 00:37:50,080
Daily's dead.
You destroyed the serum. It's over.

500
00:37:56,461 --> 00:37:58,630
No, it isn't.

501
00:38:05,554 --> 00:38:06,972
Hey.

502
00:38:08,181 --> 00:38:09,850
Slow night?

503
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,773
- Something I said?
- Don't take it personally.

504
00:38:16,982 --> 00:38:19,776
He won't even make eye contact with me.

505
00:38:20,944 --> 00:38:22,863
Something happen?

506
00:38:23,071 --> 00:38:25,449
He put someone in the hospital.

507
00:38:27,826 --> 00:38:33,332
He's a little stingy with the details,
but you should've seen this guy.

508
00:38:33,540 --> 00:38:37,544
I don't understand how any human
could've done that to another.

509
00:38:37,753 --> 00:38:43,800
Each day he becomes more and more
like somebody I don't even know.

510
00:38:44,343 --> 00:38:46,011
He won't even listen to me.

511
00:38:46,219 --> 00:38:48,889
I know someone he'll listen to.

512
00:38:51,141 --> 00:38:52,893
Sara, are you still there?

513
00:38:53,101 --> 00:38:54,519
When you first found me...

514
00:38:55,562 --> 00:38:58,106
I felt like you were my savior.

515
00:38:58,315 --> 00:39:01,860
And letting me into your work,
I felt like I was a part of something bigger.

516
00:39:02,069 --> 00:39:03,153
You are, Sara.

517
00:39:03,362 --> 00:39:07,074
It was only because I didn't want
to see what you were really doing.

518
00:39:07,532 --> 00:39:10,327
I mean, what you did
to those people on the boat...

519
00:39:10,535 --> 00:39:13,580
and how you tortured them for science.

520
00:39:14,456 --> 00:39:18,168
How I was glad that I wasn't one of them.

521
00:39:21,463 --> 00:39:23,090
But now...

522
00:39:24,132 --> 00:39:28,095
I'd rather be dead
than keep being a part of this.

523
00:39:30,138 --> 00:39:33,225
You ungrateful bitch.

524
00:39:33,433 --> 00:39:35,560
You think you know what torture is?

525
00:39:35,769 --> 00:39:39,523
You have no idea. But I will show you.

526
00:39:39,731 --> 00:39:43,318
I am gonna hunt you down,
both of you, and I will show—

527
00:40:04,047 --> 00:40:06,341
Let's go find Slade.

528
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,053
It's done.

529
00:40:10,720 --> 00:40:13,348
They think it was all Daily.

530
00:40:13,557 --> 00:40:15,767
He sacrificed himself for our cause.

531
00:40:15,976 --> 00:40:17,978
A good start.

532
00:40:18,186 --> 00:40:22,691
But the magnitude of your negligence
requires a greater sacrifice.

533
00:40:31,450 --> 00:40:35,454
Your incompetence has now cost four lives,
alderman.

534
00:40:38,039 --> 00:40:43,128
Fail me again,
and yours will be the fifth.

535
00:40:55,891 --> 00:40:58,727
If that was supposed to go through
my other leg, you missed.

536
00:40:59,186 --> 00:41:01,855
You seem to be healing pretty well.

537
00:41:07,444 --> 00:41:12,282
You're stronger, you heal faster,
but you're not in control.

538
00:41:12,491 --> 00:41:14,201
The serum that you were exposed to...

539
00:41:14,409 --> 00:41:17,954
it changes your body,
but it also warps your mind.

540
00:41:18,163 --> 00:41:21,458
- How do you know so much about it?
- I've seen it before.

541
00:41:21,666 --> 00:41:26,546
It twists men. Turns them into
someone they don't recognize.

542
00:41:27,756 --> 00:41:29,883
Someone dangerous.

543
00:41:30,675 --> 00:41:33,345
Maybe you should
put another arrow through me.

544
00:41:33,762 --> 00:41:35,263
This time through my heart.

545
00:41:35,472 --> 00:41:37,807
There's another way, Roy.

546
00:41:38,308 --> 00:41:43,146
I can teach you to control your new ability.

547
00:41:43,939 --> 00:41:46,107
To control yourself.

548
00:41:46,733 --> 00:41:48,527
Let me help you.

549
00:41:51,696 --> 00:41:53,573
When do we start?
