MY NAME IS OLIVER QUEEN.

AFTER 6 MONTHS IN HELL,

I HAVE BEEN RELEASED FROM PRISON

AND RETURNED HOME WITH ONLY ONE GOAL--

TO SAVE MY CITY,

BUT THINGS HAVE CHANGED.

INSTEAD OF OPERATING OUTSIDE THE LAW,

I AM NOW WORKING ALONGSIDE THE POLICE.

I AM NO LONGER INMATE 4587.

I AM ONCE MORE THE GREEN ARROW.

PREVIOUSLY ON "ARROW"...

WORKING WITH THE SCPD--

THAT'S WHAT'S BEST FOR THIS CITY.

THE WHOLE CITY WILL BE WATCHING YOU,

HOLDING YOU TO THE HIGHEST STANDARD.

DAD, PLEASE. DON'T LEAVE.

EMIKO: DANTE TOOK ME UNDER HIS WING, AND HE TRAINED ME.

I KEPT HOLDING OUT, THINKING

ONE DAY YOU'D BECOME THE FATHER I DESERVED.

IT'S NEVER GONNA HAPPEN, IS IT?

ROBERT: IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE YOU'D LIKE TO TALK TO ME ABOUT?

NO. HAVE A GOOD TRIP.

WHEN EMIKO REALIZES THAT DANTE HAS BEEN MANIPULATING HER,

IT WILL DRIVE A WEDGE BETWEEN HER AND THE NINTH CIRCLE.

ROT IN HELL.

THE NINTH CIRCLE GOT AWAY

WITH A VERY DANGEROUS BIOLOGICAL WEAPON--

THE CYGNUS X-1.

REPORTER: I HAVE JUST RECEIVED CONFIRMATION

OF TWO FATALITIES HERE AT THE HUDOLIN MCGUIRE METRO STATION.

SCPD HAVE CORDONED OFF THE AREA,

BUT THE COMMUNITY IS VERY CONCERNED.

RUMORS ARE ALREADY FLYING AS TO WHO MIGHT BE RESPONSIBLE.

REPORTER: CAPTAIN DRAKE. DINAH: HOW'S IT LOOK?

YOU NEED TO SEE THIS FOR YOURSELF.

HEY, KEEP THOSE DAMN REPORTERS BACK.

[SIREN]

THIS IS WHERE WE FOUND THEM.

OH, MY GOD.

WE'LL HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE OFFICIAL M.E. REPORT,

BUT IT SEEMS OBVIOUS--

BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA.

LOOKS LIKE THEY GOT OFF A FEW ROUNDS

BEFORE THEY WENT DOWN.

DID THEY HIT ANYTHING?

NOTHING ALIVE.

WHERE ARE THE SUSPECTS?

WE'VE GOT TWO DEAD GUARDS AND ONE HELL OF A MESS.

YOUR TEAM WAS ON-SITE.

I THINK YOU BETTER START TALKING.

THIS IS--THIS WHOLE THING IS RIDICULOUS.

THE REAL DANGER IS STILL OUT THERE.

I DON'T THINK YOU GET TO DECIDE THE REAL DANGER,

MR. QUEEN.

WE WENT TO THE SUBWAY PLATFORM

TO STOP A TERRORIST ATTACK,

WHICH WE DID,

BUT THE PEOPLE THAT WE WERE AFTER

ARE STILL ON THE LOOSE.

WELL, LUCKILY WE HAVE

HALF THE DEPARTMENT OUT THERE RIGHT NOW FOLLOWING THE SAME LEAD.

DO YOU THINK THAT THESE ARE AVERAGE STREET THUGS, DINAH?

THESE ARE TERRORISTS THAT TRIED TO RELEASE

A BIOLOGICAL AGENT IN STAR CITY.

THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE COULD HAVE DIED.

TWO PEOPLE DID DIE.

WE FOUND TWO EMERALD ARROWS AT THE SCENE.

THE NEW GREEN ARROW.

WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME ABOUT HER INVOLVEMENT AT THE SUBWAY TONIGHT?

[EXHALES]

SHE WAS THERE.

SHE? HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?

I THINK IT'S TIME WE TELL PEOPLE THE TRUTH.

THE NEW GREEN ARROW IS MY HALF-SISTER.

HER NAME IS EMIKO ADACHI.

DINAH: SHE BELONGS TO A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION

CALLED THE NINTH CIRCLE.

THE VIGILANTES HAVE BEEN TRACKING HER

FOR A FEW WEEKS NOW.

WHY DIDN'T YOU INFORM THE SCPD?

BECAUSE THE NINTH CIRCLE IS

JUST A LITTLE BIT BEYOND THE SCPD, OFFICER.

THE SCPD-VIGILANTE PARTNERSHIP WORKS BEST

WHEN WE OPERATE AS A COVERT UNIT.

DOESN'T SEEM SO IN THIS CASE.

WELL, I'M USUALLY KEPT AWARE OF WHAT'S GOING ON,

BUT I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS.

CARE TO EXPLAIN WHY?

THINGS STARTED MOVING PRETTY QUICKLY

AFTER YOU TOLD US ABOUT DANTE.

FELICITY: OH, THANK GOD.

PLEASE TELL ME THE NEWS THAT YOU ARE BRINGING

IS ABOUT EMIKO AND HER NINTH CIRCLE BUDDIES

BECAUSE I HAVE HAD NO LUCK

WITH MY TYPITY-TYPE FINDING ANYTHING THING.

OH, WELL, YOU'RE IN LUCK NOW.

DANTE, NOT SO MUCH.

A COUPLE SCPD BEAT COPS FOUND HIS BODY THIS MORNING.

LET ME GUESS, AND NOT FROM NATURAL CAUSES.

NOT UNLESS YOU CALL 3 ARROWS

AND A KNIFE TO THE CHEST NATURAL.

JOHN: THIS WAS AFTER YOU TOLD EMIKO THAT DANTE KILLED HER MOTHER.

CAN'T BE A COINCIDENCE.

NO. SHE WENT AHEAD AND KILLED

THE ONLY FATHER FIGURE SHE HAD LEFT.

FELICITY: RIGHT. SO THAT'S A "NO"

ON THE EVIL SISTER REDEEMING HERSELF THEN.

JOHN: OK, SO WE HAVE TO STOP EMIKO FROM USING

THIS BIO-WEAPON THAT SHE STOLE FROM THE D.I.A.

RENE: THE TERRIFYING BACTERIA THAT EATS THROUGH EVERYTHING?

YEAH, LET'S KEEP THAT CONTAINED.

OK, SO THE BAD NEWS IS THAT I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND

THE BIO-WEAPON, BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS

THAT THE NINTH CIRCLE WON'T BE ABLE TO EITHER

UNLESS THEY GET A DISSEMINATION DEVICE, A.K.A. A THERMAL FOGGER.

AND, YES, I CHECKED.

THE ONLY PLACE TO GET ONE IS AERODYNE INITIATIVES.

OLIVER: DIGG, LET'S GET THERE

-AND HELP THEM PROTECT IT. -OK.

DINAH: I'LL FOLLOW UP WITH THE DETECTIVE,

SEE IF I CAN GET SOME MORE CLUES OFF DANTE'S BODY.

OK.

AND I'LL HANG BACK WITH FELICITY

AND HELP HER WITH THE TYPEY-TYPE.

-THAT'S OK. -MORAL SUPPORT.

OK.

MAN: MR. QUEEN, MR. DIGGLE,

IT'S A PLEASURE TO FINALLY MEET

THE FAMOUS GREEN ARROW AND SPARTAN.

I ALWAYS BELIEVED IN VIGILANTES IN THE CITY.

WELL, LOVE TO HEAR IT.

WISH WE WERE MEETING UNDER BETTER CIRCUMSTANCES.

JOHN: WE HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE

THAT AN ASSET OF YOURS HAS BEEN TARGETED

BY AN INTERNATIONAL TERRORIST THREAT.

WELL, THAT'S QUITE AN ACCUSATION,

BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU OUR SECURITY'S TOP OF THE LINE.

OLIVER: WITH ALL DUE RESPECT,

THIS ORGANIZATION IS FAR MORE POWERFUL

THAN ANY PRIVATE COMPANY

COULD POSSIBLY CONTEND WITH.

AND WITH ALL DUE RESPECT TO YOU,

WE HIRED OVER A DOZEN OF THE WORLD'S BEST HACKERS AND THIEVES

TO TRY TO BREAK INTO OUR FACILITY.

NONE MADE IT PAST THE FRONT ENTRANCE.

UH, MR. TOTH,

WE'RE SIMPLY OFFERING TO HELP YOU.

WHAT POSSIBLE REASON COULD YOU HAVE

FOR TURNING US DOWN?

WELL, I APPRECIATE YOUR CONCERN,

BUT WE'VE GOT THIS COVERED.

DINAH: IT SEEMS ODD THAT HE TURNED YOU DOWN.

WE AGREED,

SO WE HAD FELICITY DO A DEEP DIVE

INTO TOTH'S FINANCIAL RECORDS.

TURNS OUT HE WAS GETTING

SOME VERY LARGE DEPOSITS.

SO HE WAS ON THE TAKE...

-FROM THE NINTH CIRCLE. -MM-HMM.

AND WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?

BECAUSE WE COULDN'T CONFIRM IT

UNTIL LATER, DINAH.

WELL, I WANT TO BELIEVE YOU, OLIVER,

BUT YOU'VE GOT TO ADMIT, THIS LOOKS REALLY BAD.

I MEAN, WE GOT ARROWS AT THE CRIME SCENE.

WE'VE GOT A VERY INCRIMINATING DISTRESS CALL

FROM ONE OF THE VICTIMS, AND YOU WERE THERE.

NOT TO MENTION THE MISSING SECURITY FOOTAGE.

OK. DINAH, YOU KNOW ME, ALL RIGHT?

YOU KNOW THAT I DIDN'T KILL THOSE PEOPLE.

YOU'VE KILLED BEFORE--

HUH--

MANY TIMES.

FIVE MONTHS AGO, YOU WERE SITTING

IN A CELL IN SLABSIDE.

YOU'RE NOT EXACTLY INNOCENT.

ENJOYING YOURSELF? YOU HAVING A GOOD TIME?

YOU HAVE HAD IT OUT FOR ME

SINCE THE MOMENT THAT I WAS DEPUTIZED BY THE SCPD.

DINAH: YOU KNOW, THOSE GUARDS WERE NOT JUST KILLED, OLIVER.

THEY WERE SAVAGELY BEATEN TO DEATH.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW BAD THIS LOOKS FOR THE DEPARTMENT?

YES, I DO, BUT I DIDN'T DO IT.

-THEN WHO DID? -I DON'T KNOW.

SO IT COULD HAVE BEEN

ONE OF THE MEMBERS OF YOUR TEAM.

MY TEAM...

STOPPED A TERRORIST ATTACK.

DINAH: EXCEPT IT WASN'T JUST YOUR TEAM WHO WAS THERE, WAS IT?

THERE WAS SOMEBODY ELSE THERE,

SOMEBODY BESIDES MR. DIGGLE

AND MS. SMOAK AND MR. RAMIREZ.

YES, THERE WAS.

WE THOUGHT THE NINTH CIRCLE

WAS GONNA WIPE OUT STAR CITY.

SO I MADE A CALL.

YOU DO UNDERSTAND WHAT ACCOMPLICE TO MURDER MEANS, RIGHT?

YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS.

TONIGHT'S SECURITY FOOTAGE

FROM HUDOLIN MCGUIRE SUBWAY STATION MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARED.

YOU WOULDN'T HAPPEN TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT, WOULD YOU?

NOPE. NOTHING, ZILCH, NADA.

SHE'S COVERING FOR HER HUSBAND.

-OH, COME-- -THAT CERTAINLY IS CONVENIENT.

AND WHEN EXACTLY WERE YOU PLANNING ON TELLING ME

ABOUT ROY HARPER'S INVOLVEMENT?

HONESTLY?

AFTER WE SAVED STAR CITY FROM THE NINTH CIRCLE'S ATTACK.

WE KNOW HOW YOU GUYS FEEL ABOUT "THE UNSANCTIONED."

LET'S GET REAL.

EMIKO AND THE NINTH CIRCLE KNOW OUR FACES.

ROY WAS OUR ACE IN THE HOLE.

SO YOU RISKED YOUR NEW RELATIONSHIP WITH THE SCPD

BY TEAMING UP WITH A CRIMINAL.

FORMER CRIMINAL.

ROY LEFT THE CITY 4 YEARS AGO,

AND HE'S BEEN ON THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW EVER SINCE.

ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?

YES, I'M SURE ABOUT THAT.

BECAUSE WE TRACED HARPER'S WHEREABOUTS

AFTER HE FAKED HIS DEATH IN PRISON

TO GET OLIVER QUEEN OFF THE HOOK,

AND HIS TRAIL WENT COLD IN MARCH OF LAST YEAR.

OH. YOU MEAN WHEN RICARDO DIAZ KIDNAPPED ROY

TO TURN HIM AGAINST OLIVER?

YOU MIGHT HAVE FORGOTTEN ABOUT THAT SINCE YOU

WEREN'T EXACTLY ON SPEAKING TERMS WITH OLIVER AND I AT THE TIME.

IT STILL DOESN'T EXPLAIN

WHERE HE WENT AFTER GETTING FREED FROM DIAZ.

I'M SURE THE KIDNAPPING WAS EXTREMELY TRAUMATIC.

HE PROBABLY JUST WENT TO GO GET SOME R&R--

SOME ROY RELAXATION.

NOT FUNNY. I SEE THAT NOW.

OH. SO THIS IS WHAT LEGIT LOOKS LIKE.

JOHN: THAT'S RIGHT. A BADGE AND A BUNKER.

NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE THE DAY.

JOHN: GOOD SEEING YOU.

I'M GLAD YOU'RE FINALLY SEEING IT IN PERSON AGAIN.

-OOH! -OH!

OH, I MISSED YOU SO MUCH.

SORRY. I'M JUST A LITTLE OVERLY EMOTIONAL THESE DAYS.

I MEAN, NOT OVERLY EMOTIONAL,

NOT, LIKE, HEIGHTENED OR ANYTHING.

BECAUSE WHY WOULD THAT BE?

MY HORMONES ARE TOTALLY IN CHECK,

LIKE THEY ALWAYS HAVE BEEN.

NERVES OF STEEL. YOU KNOW ME. I'M COOL.

OK.

THE ARSENAL. NICE TO FINALLY MEET YOU.

YOU, TOO. THANKS FOR KEEPING WATCH.

THE GLADES CAN USE AS MANY HEROES AS IT CAN GET.

WELCOME BACK.

ALL RIGHT.

HOW'S THEA?

SHE'S GOOD. YEAH, I THINK SHE'S FINALLY FOUND HER PASSION.

YOU'D BE REALLY PROUD OF HER.

LAST I SPOKE WITH HER, SHE SAYS

YOU WERE ZEROING IN ON THE REMAINING LAZARUS PITS.

YEAH, WE FOUND TWO ALREADY,

-WHICH WE DESTROYED. -MM-HMM.

WE WERE CHECKING THE REST WHEN WE GOT YOUR CALL.

SPEAKING OF WHICH, WHY'D YOU ASK ME TO COME HERE

INSTEAD OF THEA?

STAR CITY'S NEW TERRORIST IS OLIVER'S NEW SISTER.

WHAT?

YEAH.

DON'T YOU THINK THEA WOULD WANT TO KNOW THAT?

-YEAH. -YES.

AND I HAVE EVERY INTENTION OF TELLING HER.

I JUST--THIS WOMAN'S NAME IS EMIKO,

AND WE WANTED TO GET HER INTO CUSTODY BEFORE WE TOLD HER.

I FEEL LIKE SHE'S FINALLY FREE OF HER LIFE IN STAR CITY,

AND I--I DON'T WANT TO HURT HER AGAIN

WITH A WOUND INFLICTED ON OUR FAMILY

BY OUR FATHER.

FELICITY, VOICE-OVER: ROY HAD BEEN TRAVELING THE WORLD

DOING SOME EXTREMELY NORMAL SIGHTSEEING.

APPARENTLY HE WAS TOO BUSY TO EVEN SEND A POSTCARD.

THEN WHY DID YOU CALL HIM IN?

BECAUSE OF THE THERMAL FOGGER.

THE WHAT?

THE SCARY BIO-WEAPON THAT THE BAD GUYS NEEDED

TO SPREAD THE BACTERIA THROUGH THE SUBWAY'S HVAC SYSTEM.

THE DEVICE FOUND ON THE SCENE.

THE DEVICE FOUND AT THE SCENE, YES.

LOOK,

WE THOUGHT IT WAS WEIRD THAT THE CEO OF AERODYNE

WASN'T GOING TO LET US PROTECT IT FROM THE NINTH CIRCLE,

SO WE DID SOME DIGGING.

AND FOUND THAT JASON TOTH WAS DIRTY. OLIVER TOLD US.

WE KNEW GOOD OLD JASON WOULD BE LOOKING FOR MEMBERS OF THE TGA,

AND WE NEEDED SOMEONE WITH A VIGILANTE-LIKE SET OF SKILLS.

VOILA. ROY HARPER.

THE FACILITIES AT AERODYNE ARE NO JOKE,

AND ROY IS INCREDIBLE AT PARKOUR.

I'M IN.

OLIVER: REMEMBER, ROY, THE FLOOR IS ARMED.

FELICITY: IF YOU TOUCH ANYTHING--

AND I MEAN ANYTHING-- IT IS PARTY TIME AT AERODYNE,

AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY.

ROY: IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN TOUCH?

WALLS AND CEILINGS ARE FAIR GAME.

ANYTHING THAT'S NOT THE FLOOR.

SO FAR, SO GOOD.

RENE: THE CONTROL PANEL'S ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FAN.

I GOT TO GET HIGHER.

I SEE IT.

YOU HIT METAL, IT'S OVER. SHOT HAS TO BE PERFECT.

MARGIN OF ERROR--0.08, BUT WHO'S COUNTING?

YOUR TARGET IS THE RED BUTTON--

SECOND FROM THE LEFT.

ROY: I DON'T HAVE A SHOT...

BUT I WILL.

[CIRCUIT BREAKER WHISTLING]

FELICITY, VOICE-OVER: JUST LIKE THAT, PIECE OF CAKE.

OH, WHICH ACTUALLY SOUNDS SO GOOD RIGHT NOW.

DO YOU GUYS HAVE ANY CAKE OR CUPCAKES

OR ANYTHING WITH, LIKE, A CAKE-LIKE--

FELICITY, TELL US WHAT HAPPENED, PLEASE.

ROY SQUEEZED HIS WAY THROUGH THE BLADES,

AND THEN AFTER THAT, IT WAS EASY

TO MAKE HIS WAY INTO THE R&D VAULT. BOOM.

HEADS UP. WE'RE LATE TO THE PARTY.

OLIVER: THAT WAS OUR ONLY WAY IN.

NOT THE ONLY WAY.

PLEASURE DOING BUSINESS WITH YOU, MR. TOTH.

OH, YOUR NEW SISTER-- NOT A FAN.

[CLANG]

TAKE CARE OF HIM. MOVE! MOVE!

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?

YOUR NEW WORST NIGHTMARE.

HMM.

SEE YOUSE LADS.

[ROY BREATHING HEAVILY]

ROY?

WE LOST THE BIO-WEAPON.

SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT.

IF YOUR PLAN HAD WORKED,

ROY WOULD HAVE SUCCESSFULLY STOLEN

A VERY DANGEROUS PIECE OF TECH.

IN OTHER WORDS, COMMITTED A FELONY.

WELL, TECHNICALLY,

ROY WAS THERE TO STOP THE NINTH CIRCLE FROM DOING WHAT THEY DID,

WHICH WAS STEAL THE DEVICE, SO TECHNICALLY, ROY DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.

NO HARM, NO FOUL. COULD I MAYBE GET A PIZZA?

JUST A PERSONAL SIZE IS FINE.

NO. I THINK YOU'VE ABUSED YOUR FOOD PRIVILEGES ENOUGH FOR TODAY.

-OK. -TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED.

WE STOPPED THE NINTH CIRCLE FROM TERRORIZING THE CITY.

END-STOP.

AND THE TWO FATALITIES.

THAT WASN'T OUR FAULT.

DINAH: THEN TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW.

WE KNEW THAT THE NINTH CIRCLE

WANTED TO MAXIMIZE THE BIO-WEAPON'S IMPACT.

THERE WERE TWO POSSIBLE LOCATIONS TO DO THAT--

THE VENTILATION ROOM AND THE VENTILATION SHAFT.

OLIVER WENT TO ONE, JOHN AND RENE WENT TO THE OTHER.

ROY AND I WENT TO THE SWITCH ROOM.

FELICITY: OH, WOW! THIS THING IS A FOSSIL,

AND NOT IN A FUN ICE AGE WAY.

CAN YOU SHUT IT DOWN?

WELL, ONCE I SHUT DOWN THE VENTILATION PATH,

WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO MINIMIZE THE DAMAGE.

DINAH, VOICE-OVER: DID YOU HAVE ANY INDICATION

THOSE GUARDS WERE STILL ON-SITE?

NO. I DIDN'T SEE THOSE GUARDS OR ANY GUARDS.

[LOUD THUD]

SOUNDS LIKE WE'RE NOT ALONE. YOU GOT EYES?

ALL I GOT IS TWO TRANSIT GUARDS IN THE CORRIDOR.

IF THEY'RE NINTH CIRCLE, YOU CAN'T LET THEM IN HERE.

WELL, I CAN'T JUST LEAVE YOU HERE.

I'LL BE FINE. I'LL BE FINE. GO.

I STAYED IN THAT ROOM UNTIL OLIVER GAVE ME THE GO-AHEAD.

AND WHAT ABOUT ROY?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

CAN YOU ACCOUNT FOR HIS WHEREABOUTS

BETWEEN THE TIME HE LEFT YOU

AND THE TIME THOSE GUARDS WERE KILLED?

GUYS, THE VENTS ARE SHUT DOWN.

PLEASE TELL ME THAT YOU HAVE THE DEVICE.

[GUNSHOTS]

HE WAS KEEPING ME SAFE.

THAT WASN'T THE QUESTION.

FELICITY, DO YOU KNOW WHERE ROY WAS

WHEN THOSE GUARDS WERE KILLED?

NO, I DON'T.

ROY HARPER, YOU ARE A HARD MAN TO TRACK DOWN.

I'VE BEEN TRAVELING.

SO WE'VE HEARD. WHEREABOUTS EXACTLY?

THE WORLD.

DON'T MAKE THIS HARDER THAN IT NEEDS TO BE.

YOU'VE GOT QUITE THE RAP SHEET, MR. HARPER.

B&E, GRAND THEFT AUTO...

AGGRAVATED ASSAULT.

SO IS THAT WHY YOU CAME BACK TO STAR CITY, ROY,

TO STEAL A DEVICE FROM AERODYNE?

I CAME BACK TO HELP PREVENT EMIKO FROM STEALING IT.

SHE'S THE ONE YOU GUYS SHOULD BE GOING AFTER.

WE WILL.

BUT FIRST, WHY DON'T YOU TELL US WHAT HAPPENED

AFTER YOU FAILED TO STOP HER?

I WENT BACK TO THE BUNKER TO FIGURE OUT A NEW PLAN.

ACCORDING TO FELICITY, ALL EMIKO HAD TO DO WAS

FILL THAT DEVICE WITH SOME SORT OF KILLER BACTERIA

AND STAR CITY WOULD'VE TURNED INTO A REAL-LIFE HORROR MOVIE.

CYGNUS X-1.

YEAH. SO SHE RAN SOME SORT OF ALGORITHM

AND CAME UP WITH A FEW POSSIBLE PLACES.

BINGSLEY: AND THAT EVENTUALLY LED YOU TO THE SUBWAY.

CUT TO THE CHASE.

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN YOU GOT THERE?

SPECIFICALLY, WHAT HAPPENED AFTER YOU LEFT FELICITY?

I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE HER, BUT SHE INSISTED.

WE THOUGHT THE NINTH CIRCLE MIGHT HAVE SHOWED UP.

ROY, VOICE-OVER: TURNS OUT WE WERE RIGHT.

THOSE GUYS IN THE HOODS JUMPED ME.

AFTER I TOOK OUT THE FIRST ONE, THEY JUST...

JUST KEPT COMING.

I TRIED TO FIGHT BACK, BUT THERE WERE JUST TOO MANY OF THEM.

THE LAST THING I REMEMBER IS

I WAS TAKING A MACE TO THE FACE

BEFORE EVERYTHING WENT BLACK.

AND WHEN I CAME TO,

YOU ALL WERE ON THE SCENE,

AND THE GUARDS, THEY WERE ALREADY DEAD.

SO YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA

WHO MAY HAVE KILLED THEM.

IT'S RATHER CONVENIENT, DON'T YOU THINK?

YOU BEING UNCONSCIOUS AT THE SAME TIME

TWO MEN ARE BRUTALLY MURDERED?

YOU THINK I DID IT?

WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON?

I AM ON THE ONLY SIDE THAT MATTERS--THE TRUTH.

NOW, WHY DON'T YOU STOP WASTING MY TIME

AND TELL ME WHAT REALLY HAPPENED?

JOHN: I TOLD YOU, ROY WAS UNCONSCIOUS WHEN I FOUND HIM,

AND THAT WAS BEFORE THE GUARDS FIRED THEIR SIDEARMS.

SO YOU DON'T THINK HE KILLED THEM.

I JUST DON'T SEE HOW HE COULD HAVE.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO PROTECT HIM, JOHN.

DINAH, I'M NOT.

RIGHT, RIGHT.

BUT THAT IS WHAT YOU DO, ISN'T IT?

YOU ALWAYS PUT OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES BEFORE YOUR OWN.

AT SOME POINT YOU MIGHT DISCOVER

NOT EVERYBODY'S WORTH IT.

LOOK, YOU DON'T KNOW ROY HARPER THE WAY I DO.

HE'S HAD HIS TROUBLES.

BUT DEEP INSIDE, HE'S A VERY GOOD MAN.

WELL, YOU'RE VERY QUICK TO DEFEND ROY.

WHAT ABOUT YOURSELF?

WHY? ARE YOU ASKING ME IF I KILLED THOSE GUARDS?

IT CERTAINLY DOESN'T HELP

THAT YOU HAVE BLOOD ON YOUR SLEEVE.

WALK US THROUGH WHAT HAPPENED

AFTER YOU ARRIVED.

WELL, THERE WERE TWO POSSIBLE DISBURSEMENT SITES.

OLIVER HEADED FOR THE VENTILATION ROOM.

AND RENE AND I HEADED FOR THE VENTILATION SHAFT.

AND THAT'S WHEN WE RAN INTO TROUBLE.

ACCESS SHOULD BE HERE, AHEAD ON THE RIGHT.

[FOOTSTEPS]

EMIKO.

-I'VE GOT HER. -RENE!

SHE'S MINE. GO SECURE THE DEVICE.

SO THAT'S WHEN YOU AND RENE SPLIT UP.

RENE WAS RIGHT. THE DEVICE WAS THE PRIORITY.

I WAS HEADED FOR THE VENTILATION SHAFT,

AND THAT'S WHEN I FOUND ROY UNCONSCIOUS.

AND THIS WAS BEFORE THE GUNSHOTS.

THAT'S CORRECT.

[GUNSHOTS]

JOHN, VOICE-OVER: I RAN TOWARD THE SOURCE

AS FAST AS I COULD, BUT I WAS TOO LATE.

I CHECKED THEIR PULSE,

BUT THEY WERE ALREADY DEAD.

THAT'S HOW I GOT BLOOD ON MY SLEEVE.

WHAT ABOUT MR. RAMIREZ?

WHERE WAS HE DURING ALL OF THIS?

[SIGHS]

JOHN?

JOHN, TELL US WHAT YOU SAW.

WHEN I GOT TO THE BODIES...

THAT'S WHEN I FOUND RENE.

RENE?

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR HAND, RENE?

I CUT IT.

WELL, THAT'S OBVIOUS.

WAS IT AROUND THE SAME TIME YOU LOST YOUR GLOVE?

WHAT ARE YOU GETTING AT, D.?

YOU KNOW, I'VE SEEN PLENTY OF PERPS CHANGE THEIR TUNE

THE LONGER THEY SIT IN HERE.

THE TRUTH HAS A WAY OF COMING OUT.

THIS ISN'T MY FIRST TIME

BEING FALSELY ACCUSED OF A CRIME...

SIR.

TWO MEN ARE DEAD, RENE.

NOW, WE KNOW TEAM ARROW WAS ON-SITE

AS WELL AS EMIKO, WHICH MEANS OUR TWO MAIN SUSPECTS

ARE EITHER HER OR...

ME?

I DIDN'T SAY THAT.

WELL, THAT'S WHAT YOU WERE THINKING,

'CAUSE YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR ANY EXCUSE

NOT TO TRUST ME THIS WHOLE YEAR.

THAT'S BECAUSE YOU HAVE GIVEN ME

EVERY REASON NOT TO.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I WARNED YOU ABOUT EMIKO?

I TOLD YOU SHE WASN'T TRUSTWORTHY.

YOU REFUSED TO LISTEN.

WELL, NOW SHE ENDS UP

ON THE SCENE OF AN ATTEMPTED TERRORIST ATTACK

AND A DOUBLE HOMICIDE, AND YOU WERE THERE, TOO.

AND YOU WHAT? YOU THINK I HELPED HER?

I JUST WANT THE TRUTH, RENE.

TELL ME WHAT YOU WERE DOING BEFORE THAT MISSION TONIGHT.

RENE: WE MANAGED TO GET THE INFO

ON THE NINTH CIRCLE'S TARGET

THANKS TO FELICITY'S ALGORITHM.

SHE TRACED THE CHEMICAL SIGNATURE OF THE BIO-WEAPON

TO THE SUBWAY STATION.

AND THAT'S WHEN YOU HEADED OFF.

YEAH. STRAIGHT AWAY.

YOU GOOD WITH ALL THIS?

I'LL BE BETTER ONCE WE GET TO THE SUBWAY AND STOP HER.

I KNOW THAT IT'S GOING TO BE TOUGH GOING UP AGAINST EMIKO.

YOU GUYS GOT REALLY CLOSE, RENE.

IF YOU'RE GONNA TRY AND GIVE ME A PEP TALK, SAVE IT. I'M GOOD.

I DON'T WANT TO GIVE YOU A PEP TALK.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IF YOU'RE GOING OUT ON A MISSION,

YOU'RE DOING IT WITH A CLEAR HEAD.

WHEN I FIRST MET EMIKO,

AVENGING HER MOTHER'S DEATH

AND HELPING THE GLADES WERE THE ONLY THINGS THAT MATTERED TO HER.

RIGHT, EXCEPT SHE WAS LYING.

THEN WHY DID SHE KILL DANTE?

WHY'D SHE DO IT?

I MEAN, SHE TURNED ON A MEMBER OF THE NINTH CIRCLE

FOR HER MOTHER.

THAT TELLS ME THAT FAMILY MEANS MORE TO HER.

FINE. IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT SHE

COULD POTENTIALLY KILL THOUSANDS-- THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE.

I KNOW, I KNOW, BUT SHE'S STILL YOUR SISTER, MAN.

DOESN'T ANY PART OF YOU THINK THAT MAYBE SHE'S DOING ALL OF THIS

BECAUSE OF WHAT YOUR FATHER DID TO HER,

THAT IF NOT FOR HER UPBRINGING,

SHE'D BE FIGHTING WITH US INSTEAD OF AGAINST US?

A BIG PART OF ME THINKS ABOUT THAT...

ALL THE TIME.

AT A CERTAIN POINT, RENE,

PEOPLE NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY

FOR THEIR ACTIONS.

EMIKO MADE HER CHOICE. I'VE MADE MINE.

YOU NEED TO MAKE YOURS.

THERE'S SOMETHING I'M NOT LIKING ABOUT YOUR STORY, RENE.

THE PART WHERE WE SAVE THE CITY?

THE PART YOU'RE NOT TELLING US.

EVERYTHING I TOLD YOU TONIGHT IS THE TRUTH.

THEN WHY DID WE FIND YOUR FINGERPRINTS

ON THE MURDER WEAPON.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING WITH THAT PIPE, RENE?

I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.

THAT'S GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO BELIEVE.

JOHN AND I SPLIT UP.

HE WENT AFTER THE BOMB.

I WENT AFTER EMIKO.

AND DID YOU CATCH UP TO HER?

NO.

EMIKO, IT'S NOT TOO LATE.

LET ME HELP YOU.

I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP. I SPARED YOU ONCE.

THIS TIME, I WON'T BE SO GENEROUS.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!

BECAUSE THE QUEENS TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME.

NOW IT'S MY TURN TO TAKE EVERYTHING FROM THEM.

THIS ISN'T YOU.

YOU CARE ABOUT THE GLADES.

YOU'RE DRESSED AS THE NEW GREEN ARROW,

AND YOU KILLED DANTE.

AND THAT PROVES WHAT EXACTLY?

THAT FINDING YOUR MOTHER'S KILLER MEANS

MORE TO YOU THAN THE NINTH CIRCLE.

WHY ELSE WOULD YOU RISK MURDERING THEIR LEADER?

YOU REALLY DON'T GET IT. DANTE WASN'T THEIR LEADER.

I AM.

YOUR MOTHER WOULD HATE WHAT YOU'VE BECOME.

AGH!

RENE, VOICE-OVER: I WAS STILL SEARCHING FOR EMIKO

WHEN I HEARD THE GUNSHOTS.

[GUNSHOTS]

BINGSLEY: WHERE WERE YOU EXACTLY?

SOME RANDOM CORRIDOR.

THE GUNSHOTS WERE CLOSE.

I FOLLOWED THE SOUND, WHICH LED ME TO THE PLATFORM.

YOU KNOW WE HAVE A WITNESS

WHO PINS YOU AS THE FIRST PERSON ON THE SCENE.

YEAH. JOHN. HE SHOWED UP--

HE SHOWED UP SECONDS AFTER I DID.

WHAT ARE YOU NOT TELLING US, RENE?

SOMEONE ELSE GOT TO THE PLATFORM BEFORE I DID.

DINAH: AND WHO WAS IT?

IT WAS OLIVER.

BRING BACK MR. QUEEN.

YOU DIDN'T TELL US THE TRUTH.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

YOUR FRIEND RAMIREZ SAYS HE FOUND YOU NEAR THE BODIES.

OLIVER: I HAVE NO MORE WAYS TO TELL YOU

I DIDN'T KILL THOSE GUARDS.

BINGSLEY: LET ME TELL YOU WHAT I THINK.

I THINK YOU AND YOUR TEAM WERE THERE

TO STOP THE TERRORIST ATTACK.

I EVEN THINK YOU DID.

BUT ONE OF THE BAD GUYS GOT AWAY; YOU WENT AFTER THEM;

AND TRANSIT GUARDS ROSENBERG AND KIM

GOT IN YOUR WAY.

I DIDN'T KILL THOSE GUARDS.

OK, THEN WHO DID, OLIVER?

BECAUSE I REALLY WANT TO HELP YOU,

BUT I CAN'T DO THAT UNLESS YOU'RE HONEST WITH US.

SO LET'S TRY THIS AGAIN.

TELL ME WHAT WENT ON IN THAT SUBWAY,

AND I WANT THE TRUTH THIS TIME.

OLIVER, VOICE-OVER: AFTER WE SEPARATED,

I WENT TO THE VENTILATION ROOM.

VIRGIL: COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON.

WHOA, WHOA. CAREFUL, CAREFUL.

ONE WRONG MOVE, AND WE'LL ALL BE IN A LOAD OF TROUBLE.

[BEEPS]

AAH!

YOU'RE A REAL PAIN IN THE ARSE, YOU KNOW THAT?

[MEN GRUNTING]

[ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]

DINAH: THAT'S NOT THE PART WE'RE INTERESTED IN.

WE APPRECIATE YOU DISARMING THE DEVICE,

BUT THAT'S NOT WHY YOU'RE HERE.

OLIVER: THE DEVICE IS A WEAPON

THAT WAS GONNA KILL THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE,

AND NOW IT'S IN SCPD CUSTODY,

THANKS TO US.

WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?

[EXHALES]

I WAS STILL IN THE VENTILATION ROOM

WHEN I HEARD THE GUNSHOTS.

[GUNSHOTS]

OLIVER, VOICE-OVER: THE GUARDS MUST HAVE GOTTEN OFF A FEW SHOTS.

OH, NO.

BUT WHEN I GOT THERE...

THE KILLER WAS STANDING OVER THEM.

THEY WERE GONE.

BLOOD EVERYWHERE.

AND YOU GOT A GOOD LOOK AT WHO DID IT.

YEAH.

THEN WHO WAS IT?

OLIVER, THEN WHO WAS IT?

IT WAS MY SISTER.

EMIKO KILLED THOSE GUARDS.

I CAN'T BELIEVE WE'RE LETTING HIM GO.

OLIVER QUEEN IS PROTECTING HIS SISTER.

IT MAKES SENSE.

I DON'T KNOW. SOMETHING DOESN'T FEEL RIGHT.

WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH EVIDENCE

TO KEEP THEM HERE.

THEIR STORIES LINE UP.

MAYOR POLLARD AGREES.

SO HOW'S IT LOOK?

POLLARD BOUGHT IT.

YEAH, AS FAR AS THE SCPD IS CONCERNED,

EMIKO WAS THE ONE WHO KILLED THOSE GUARDS.

YOU ALL ARE VERY, VERY GOOD LIARS.

SO ARE YOU, D.

WE KNOW THAT THIS WASN'T EASY FOR YOU.

DINAH: NO, IT WASN'T.

IF ANYBODY FINDS OUT ABOUT WHAT WE DID,

OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SCPD IS OVER.

AND THE SAME GOES FOR MY JOB.

WE JUST RISKED EVERYTHING.

THAT'S WHY WE ALL HAD TO AGREE.

THIS WAS THE ONLY WAY.

[FOOTSTEPS]

[CLANG]

-I'VE GOT HER. -RENE.

SHE'S MINE. SECURE THE DEVICE.

I'LL BE FINE. GO.

[BEEPS]

AAH!

HEY! WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON DOWN HERE?

GUARD: VIGILANTE ATTACK IN PROGRESS,

HUDOLIN MCGUIRE METRO STATION.

[GUNSHOTS]

[THUD]

[THUD]

ROY!

ROY, STOP IT! LOOK AT ME!

ROY, STOP!

[PIPE ROLLS]

RENE! RENE, DON'T TOUCH THAT.

[PIPE CLANGS]

THEY'RE DEAD.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE?

WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?

WE HAVE TO PROTECT HIM.

TWO INNOCENT PEOPLE ARE DEAD,

AND WE'RE COVERING IT UP.

OLIVER: DINAH, IF SOMEONE ON THIS TEAM GOES DOWN,

THIS ENTIRE TEAM GOES DOWN.

JOHN: HE'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.

AND IF POLLARD KNEW THE TRUTH,

WE WOULD BE SITTING IN LOCKUP

WHILE THE CITY REHASHES

WHETHER VIGILANTES ARE A THREAT OR NOT.

FELICITY: WHICH WOULD FREE EMIKO UP

FOR EVIL PLAN B.

BUT ROY IS NOT A PART OF THIS TEAM.

HE'S BEEN GONE FOR MONTHS DOING WHO KNOWS WHAT.

WITH DUE RESPECT, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HE'S BEEN THROUGH.

ROY IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE AS MUCH A PART OF THIS TEAM

AS THE REST OF US.

DINAH: EXCEPT THE REST OF US DON'T GO AROUND

KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE.

JOHN: DINAH, AS HORRIBLE AS THAT WAS,

LET'S NOT LOSE SIGHT

THAT WE STOPPED AN ATTACK TONIGHT.

AND WE FRAMED EMIKO FOR MURDER.

OLIVER: EMIKO'S A MURDERER,

A MURDERER WHO'S THE LEADER OF THE NINTH CIRCLE.

AND AS LONG AS SHE IS OUT THERE,

THIS CITY WILL REMAIN UNDER THREAT.

JOHN: I HOPE WE CAN ALL AGREE ON THAT.

YES.

MY SEARCH ALGORITHMS ARE UP AND RUNNING.

IT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE A GOOD TIME

TO GO ASK ROY WHAT HAPPENED.

I'M PRETTY SURE I ALREADY KNOW.

THAT WASN'T MIRAKURU.

NO.

HOW DID IT HAPPEN?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

HOW DID YOU DIE?

HOW DID YOU KNOW?

YOU, THEA, AND NYSSA LEFT HERE OVER A YEAR AGO

IN SEARCH OF LAZARUS PITS,

AND I HAVE NOT SEEN BLOODLUST LIKE THAT

SINCE THEA WAS RESURRECTED BY ONE.

DAMN IT.

TO HELP, I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

[SIGHS]

THE THANATOS GUILD HAD US SURROUNDED.

I TRIED TO GET THEA TO SAFETY,

BUT I WAS HIT WITH AN ARROW,

WHICH--WHICH IS IRONIC.

I DON'T REALLY REMEMBER A LOT AFTER,

EXCEPT FOR...EXCEPT FOR SEEING NYSSA AND THEA

DESTROY THE PIT.

THE ONE THEY USED TO BRING YOU BACK.

YEAH.

NYSSA HAD THE LOTUS ELIXIR.

SHE AND THEA THOUGHT

THAT WE COULD CONTROL THE BLOODLUST, AND WE DID.

UNTIL YOU DIDN'T.

I KEEP TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY.

AND ALL I CAN THINK OF IS THAT MAYBE

THE MIRAKURU CHANGED SOMETHING.

YOU KNOW, I NEVER WOULD'VE COME BACK HERE

IF I WOULD'VE KNOWN WHAT WAS GONNA HAPPEN.

I NEVER MEANT TO HURT ANYONE.

I KNOW...

BUT KEEPING THIS INFORMATION FROM US,

IT JEOPARDIZED ALL THE THINGS THAT

WE HAVE BEEN WORKING FOR THIS YEAR.

I NEVER ASKED YOU TO COVER FOR ME.

I DIDN'T WANT YOU TO.

YOU NEVER HAVE TO ASK ME.

EVER.

FELICITY: GUYS?

FELICITY HAS SOMETHING.

I EXPANDED MY SEARCH PARAMETERS, AND PRESTO.

FACIAL RECOGNITION PUTS EMIKO

IN AN ABANDONED BUILDING

A FEW MILES OUTSIDE OF STAR CITY.

ANY BACKGROUND ON THE BUILDING?

I MEAN, YOU NAME IT, IT'S BEEN IT.

HOSPITAL, SHIPPING WAREHOUSE,

MANUFACTURING PLANT.

I MEAN, IT'S HAD MORE OWNERS

THAN A "FORTUNE" 500 COMPANY.

WHICH MEANS IT COULD BE A COVER FOR SOMETHING.

YEAH, SOMETHING BEING

THE NINTH CIRCLE'S HEADQUARTERS

HERE IN STAR CITY.

EMIKO'S THERE, WHICH IS ALL THAT MATTERS TO US.

WE'RE GOING AFTER HER AS A TEAM.

ARE YOU SURE?

RENE: WE GOT YOUR BACK.

OH, HEY, DINAH! THANK YOU FOR WIPING THAT SECURITY CAMERA FOOTAGE.

I COULD NOT GET THERE BEFORE THE COPS DID.

I THOUGHT THAT WAS YOU.

NO.

LET'S GO WIDE.

ARSENAL, ON MY 6.

OVERWATCH, ANY HEAT SIGNATURES?

FELICITY: NO. NOT EVEN YOURS.

THERMAL IMAGING CAN'T PENETRATE

THROUGH THOSE WALLS.

[OPENS COMMS]

I HAVE EYES ON HER.

JOHN: MOVING TO INTERCEPT.

JOHN: OLIVER, CONFIRM YOUR LOCATION.

THIS IS OVER.

IS IT?

RIGHT NOW, SERGEANT BINGSLEY

IS RECEIVING AN ANONYMOUS GIFT

DELIVERED TO HIS OFFICE:

THE MISSING SECURITY FOOTAGE

FROM THE METRO STATION.

YOU'RE THE ONE WHO MADE IT DISAPPEAR?

YOU SET US UP.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?!

FOR YOU TO SUFFER THE WAY I SUFFERED.

YOU AND YOUR TEAM ARE GONNA DIE IN THERE.

AND I WILL BE OUT THERE DESTROYING YOUR LEGACY.

YOU'LL DIE A VILLAIN

JUST LIKE OUR FATHER DID,

AND I WILL BE THE CAUSE OF BOTH OF YOUR DEATHS.

AND JUSTICE WILL FINALLY BE SERVED.

WHAT DID YOU SAY?

I HAD THE CHANCE

TO WARN OUR FATHER ABOUT THE "GAMBIT."

IT WAS RIGGED TO EXPLODE,

AND I KNEW ABOUT IT.

I LET OUR FATHER DIE BECAUSE HE

DIDN'T DESERVE TO LIVE.

AND NEITHER DO YOU.

BYE, BROTHER.

FELICITY: OLIVER, DO YOU READ ME?

DOES ANYBODY COPY?

OLIVER, COME IN.

JOHN?

JOHN, COME IN! OLIVER?

COME IN, PLEASE!

COME IN!

MAN: GREG, MOVE YOUR HEAD.
