Arrow

My name is Oliver Queen.

After five years on a hellish island,

I have come home with only one goal--

to save my city.

But to do so, I can't be the killer I once was.

To honor my friend's memory, I must be someone else.

I must be something else.

Previously on "Arrow"...

There's a new player we've been tracking.

We've been calling him...Deathstroke.

I have a proposal for you men.

Roy was injected with the serum.

He's alive. But we are going to have to keep an eye on him.

Stay away from Thea.

No.

She's not safe when she's around you.

You love her, and that's why

you're going to do what I'm asking.

How could you not tell me Malcolm Merlyn was my father?!

I believed in you.

As of 30 minutes ago,

your company belongs to me.

Slade. You're working for him.

I know Oliver Queen is the Arrow.

I don't think my eye holes line up properly.

Is anyone else having this problem?

Don't be nervous. I'm a lot nervous.

This is a big move, even for us.

And we've cornered the market on big moves.

Slade didn't give us any choice.

Yeah, as far as plans go, this is not a good one.

Felicity. This was your plan.

I didn't think you'd actually say yes.

We're here.

Ughhh!

Aahh! Ohh!

Hey! That man used to work for me.

And how he works for our enemy.

Security cameras are down.

You all remember the skeleton key?

Courtesy of William Tockman, aka the Clock King.

It can open any lock. Including this one.

This is where we met Barry.

These are plug n' play.

Fasten them to what we talked about.

Let the C4 do the rest.

Been a while since I've blown anything up.

Quick and clean.

I'm a bomber. I can't believe I'm a bomber.

I wonder if I can list that on my résume under special skills.

Freeze!

We have to go.

Thermal shows everybody's out.

It's just a building, Oliver.

Cowards.

Who else would needlessly destroy

cutting edge, scientific and medical technology

whose sole purpose

is to make Starling City

a healthier and safer place?

As CEO of Queen Consolidated,

I have a message to the terrorist

who committed this unspeakable act.

You will be caught, and punished.

For the record, I hated her

before we found out she was a super villain.

Ok. Slade's goal is to create an army

of human weapons using the Mirakuru.

To do that, he needs an industrial centrifuge.

Which having Isabel Rochev steal Queen Consolidated

from your family gave him full access to.

But since Applied Sciences went kaboom,

he can't use our technology--

well, formerly our for his warped science experiments.

Slade has had us on our heels for weeks.

It's about time we took the fight to him.

All this will do is set him back.

We have no way of knowing where the next attack is coming from.

Look, you need to drop this, ok?

I'm fine. Really.

How is any of this fine?

Look, you need to concentrate on you.

Now listen, are you going to your meetings?

Yes. It's where I talk about

how my father's facing prison.

Laurel...

This will all blow over, ok? Please.

No. It won't, Dad.

You were caught aiding and abetting the Vigilante.

Working with him last year cost you your detective shield.

Now, it can cost you 18 months in prison.

They want his name.

Do you know who the Arrow is?

I don't.

I swear.

Ok, well, what about the woman in black?

The one the Arrow works with?

Do you know who she is?

No.

Well, you must have some idea.

Honey, I can't tell you what I don't know.

Time's up.

You girls, you take care of each other.

Do you really think he doesn't know who the Arrow is?

It's not like dad to lie.

Sometimes it's people closest to us who lie to us best.

Where is Thea?

She should be here for this, too.

I doubt she's coming.

Well, I can't lie to either of you--

it's bad.

If Isabel Rochev is one thing, it's thorough.

She's been laying the foundation for this takeover for months.

But we still own a majority of stock in the company, correct?

Yes, but Isabel has diluted

that stock to the point where it's worthless.

On paper, you're virtually broke.

And what's the good news?

We can protect your assets.

We need to move everything

into a new trust that Isabel can't touch.

All I need is the beneficiaries from the current trust

to approve the transfer.

The two of you and Thea.

Thea needs to sign off.

Yes. And quickly.

Thank you, Ned.

Well, now I have to become mayor.

It seems I'll need the income.

Losing the company wasn't your fault.

It was mine.

I let Isabel Rochev get the better of me.

No. You always see the good in people,

even if they don't deserve it.

I know that better than most.

Isabel is a vindictive woman.

She would have done this with or without your trust.

How do you know?

You told me months ago I couldn't trust her.

Your father had a weakness

for beautiful, strong women.

They were together?

Yes.

She was still in business school at the time.

The pretty intern that caught the CEO's eye.

All right.

You take this to Thea, and you convince her,

somehow, to help us fight back.

Hey. Will you help me up?

Yeah.

Just to my trunk.

Ok.

Ohh, look who's up.

Just in time for all the fun.

What are you going to do to him?

Make him scream.

Just like he made us.

Hmm?

They say living well is best revenge? Ha.

I prefer torture.

You want first turn?

- No. - Please.

I can help you.

No, doctor. I can help you.

What was it you said you needed for research?

An eye?

No!

Let me get you a fresh one.

You can still stop Slade Wilson!

Anatoly. Wait.

What did you say?

I can help you stop him.

How? That miracle drug

of yours has turned him into monster.

I know. I can turn him back.

Ivo, what are you saying?!

The Mirakuru.

There's a cure.

Hey.

Hey,

is Thea here?

No, I haven't seen her.

How's your dad?

He's willing to go to jail for the Arrow.

I know you said you weren't worried,

but Dig and I went to Roy's apartment.

It's empty.

Seems like he cleared out a few days ago.

Where the hell did he go?

Roy will have to wait.

All right, we need to deal with Slade,

figure out what his next move is.

I know Slade.

He is not going to stop till...

Aah!

Hello, Sara.

Diggle, stay back!

Aaah!

Don't forget who taught you how to fight, kid.

Excuse me, I'm looking for my sister, Sara Lance.
