William Clayton : I'm sorry, dad, but we just saved you from being murdered by a bunch of gangsters. I'm on Team Mia here.
Oliver Queen : Yeah, but Mia just got kidnapped by the Bratva.
Mia Smoak : So did you.
Oliver Queen : I'm your father, all right? It is my primary job in the world to protect you.
Mia Smoak : We don't need that. In the future, we are the ones that is saving the city.
Oliver Queen : Well, this isn't the future!
[to William]
Oliver Queen : This was months after I was heartbroken right before I left that I couldn't get you on the phone at your grandparents'.
[to Mia]
Oliver Queen : So I walked into your room to look at you one last time, and you looked back at me from your crib.
Mia Smoak : And because you made the choice to protect us, I had to spend my whole life alone. I didn't have the chance to get to know my brother, to get to know you.
Oliver Queen : I'm sorry that it worked out that way. And both of you can decide on your own how much you want to hate me and how much blame you want to assign. But I made a promise to your mother to keep you safe. And there is no world, there is no universe, no past, present, or future where I break it.

Oliver Queen : I know that I haven't really spoken to you two about my time in Russia. And that is because there were some things that I did here that I'm not proud of.

From this point forward, whatever you want to know, whatever you might want to ask me, is fair game, okay?
William Clayton : Like dislocating your thumbs? 'Cause I can't believe I missed that.
Oliver Queen : Maybe something a little less painful.

William Clayton : His name is General Alexi Burov, and he's in Moscow. Curtis said that the energy wave that destroyed Earth-2 can be replicated, which means we can weaponize it. And right before he went off the grid, Burov was working on plans for a weapon called the Pulse Wave Generator.
Oliver Queen : All right. We need those plans.
William Clayton : We also need plutonium. It's the only thing that can power Burov's machine.
Mia Smoak : Wait. Plutonium as in a nuclear bomb?
William Clayton : Mm-hmm.
Mia Smoak : Where are we gonna get that?
John Diggle : [entering] Bialya. There's a facility near the border where all kinds of radioactive material is stored. I'm thinking a two-man fire team can get the job done.
Oliver Queen : Okay. Want to take Connor?
John Diggle : No, no. Actually, he went to check in on Sandra. And he promised to stay out of sight. I have someone else in mind to help.
-
Laurel Lance : Did you talk to John?
Oliver Queen : I did. He got the plutonium with an assist from Roy.
William Clayton : All we have to do is whip up an energy wave to destroy an all-knowing space being. Easy.

Oliver Queen : It means a lot more than that.

Anatoly Knyazev : Slim, and getting slimmer every second we do not find them.
William Clayton : Okay, their phones aren't online. Why aren't their phones online?
Anatoly Knyazev : Will have been destroyed, so as not to trace them.
Laurel Lance : Aren't the people in your family constantly injecting each other with tracking devices?
William Clayton : Normally, I would say "God, I hope not", but now I guess I see the advantages. Have you ever hacked a CCTV camera?
Laurel Lance : No.
William Clayton : [giving her his tablet] Well, congratulations. You're about to learn the only upside of a Russian surveillance state.
-
William Clayton : Oh, good. Do we have time for one more fight before we leave?

[to Mia]
Oliver Queen : You and I are going in the ring together as a team.
[to William]
Oliver Queen : You would be helping us get in.
Anatoly Knyazev : [giving him a business suit] Sorry. I did not have time to get it dry cleaned.
William Clayton : I'm really more of a behind the screen kind of guy. But wow. That is a nice suit. Huh.
Laurel Lance : What exactly will I Anatoly and I be doing while you two are playing father/daughter fight club moment?
Oliver Queen : When Oleg realizes that it's the two of us in the ring, that'll cause a distraction. You guys go and steal the drive. What do you say?
William Clayton : Well, I'm in. Fancy rich guy is the role I was born to play.
Oliver Queen : You?
Mia Smoak : Why the hell not?
Oliver Queen : Suit up.
-
Mia Smoak : You shouldn't have told them what was on the drive.
Oliver Queen : They would've killed you if I didn't.
Mia Smoak : Or we would've been able to escape without you giving up the information.
Oliver Queen : Mia.
Laurel Lance : Okay, can we please just save the family squabbling 'til after we have the plans?
William Clayton : Oleg's bound to figure out how much they're worth.
Anatoly Knyazev : Well, he's smart businessman. He will figure out way to sell it.
Oliver Queen : We need to figure out when and where the sale is happening, and then we go recover the drive.
Mia Smoak : Let me guess. Me and William get to stay at the bar, right?
Oliver Queen : You're going home, both of you.
Mia Smoak : No.
Laurel Lance : I have a feeling there's less drama out here.
Anatoly Knyazev : [they turn to leave] Yeah.

Oliver Queen : I've seen what you can do in there, so just trust your instincts, okay? I do.
