Justin Hartley: Oliver Queen

Quotes 

• Police Woman : [notices on Oliver's belt]  Is this a camera?

  Oliver Queen : A what? It's some kind of spyware. Well, it's not mine. I've never seen this.

  Police Woman : Right. And it just accidentally got caught on your belt buckle? So you could, what? Plaster my butt all over YouTube like Pamela Anderson?

  Oliver Queen : Okay, first of all, no one's on YouTube looking at Pamela Anderson's butt.

• Clark Kent : Oliver. Is this your idea of fun now that you've hung up your bow?

  Oliver Queen : Should have known it was you. Clark Kent, the king of buzzkill. You and your pet rock put on a hell of a barbecue. But I had my money on Doomsday, so...

  Clark Kent : You can try and play it off as a joke, but I *know* that the loss of Jimmy affected us both.

  Oliver Queen : Well, I guess God's got a sick sense of humor. Oh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't be taking your name in vain.

  Clark Kent : What, you need to hear me say it? I should have listened to you. I should have gotten rid of Davis instead of believing in him.

  Oliver Queen : It's a little late.

  Clark Kent : I'm trying to make up for what happened, not add myself to the casualty list.

  Oliver Queen : Yeah, well, I can't get my thrills leaping tall buildings or outrunning speeding bullets. We mere mortals - we have to rely on a tweaked-out Ducati and the opened road.

• Clark Kent : You know that you're meant for more than this. This isn't you.

  Oliver Queen : Who are you, huh?

  [looks at the "S" on Clark's costume] 

  Oliver Queen : W-what's all this? What's the "S" stand for? What is that, "superstar?

  Clark Kent : It gives people hope.

  Oliver Queen : I'll tell you what, Clark, why don't you, uh... go ahead and plaster your symbol of superiority all over the city so that people can worship you like some kind of modern Jesus. That's what you want, right? That's why you're here. Here to save us.

  Clark Kent : You need help.

  Oliver Queen : Yeah, well maybe. But I hate to break it to you Clark, not everyone believes in the second coming.

• Lois Lane : Oliver? What are you doing here?

  Oliver Queen : I was looking for Tess when the whole building went "Resident Evil."

• Clark Kent : You only had to do one thing, Oliver - keep her awake. But Lois almost died! You're spiraled so far you couldn't even protect her. Is there any part of the person I used to know still there?

  Oliver Queen : Maybe not.

  Clark Kent : Look, I understand that it's hard trying to figure out how to come back from what happened. Maybe you need help.

  Oliver Queen : Actually, I thought about what you said, and, uh... I took a look in the mirror, and you were right. I've been running away from myself for a long time now. But now I know who I really am.

  Clark Kent : All right, then you know what you have to do.

  Oliver Queen : Yeah. Thank you, Clark.

• Police Woman : [returning Oliver's wallet]  I know I was supposed to give this back to you after I checked your license, but I couldn't help myself. A lot of platinum cards in here.

  [showing him a picture of Lois] 

  Police Woman : But I bet this is the most valuable one of all. Who's she?

  Oliver Queen : It's, um... she's just someone I used to know.

• Oliver Queen : Got any idea what triggered this sudden appetite for human carpaccio?

  Lois Lane : All I know is one minute my copy editor's dozing, the next, he's trying to bite my face off.

  Clark Kent : Same thing happened with Tess. She was asleep. When she woke up, she became one of them.

  Oliver Queen : You think this thing incubates when people are sleeping.

  Lois Lane : Let's hope not. We only have a few hours 'til four million people get up to go to work.

  Oliver Queen : That's one hell of a rush hour.

• Police Woman : [after discovering spyware in Oliver's belt buckle]  Don't call or e-mail.

  Oliver Queen : Don't worry, I never do.

  [she slaps him]
