Quotes 

• Mia Dearden : Don't worry. I'm not gonna go tell all my friends I used to train with the Emerald Archer.

  Oliver Queen : Well, he's not done with you yet. I mean, unless of course, you're done with him.

  Mia Dearden : No. No, I'm actually glad my old teacher showed up again. Yours, not so much.

  Oliver Queen : I still can't get him out of my head. I just keep thinking, by the time Vordigan gets out of prison, he'll be an old man.

  Mia Dearden : I think you got better things to worry about.

  Oliver Queen : I'm not worried about him. Mia, it's what he said. I think he's right. What if I can't outrun these dark places inside me?

  Mia Dearden : That's why you need me. To keep you in check. There's a dark place inside everyone, Oliver. What we do with it depends not on who our teachers are but what we do with the lessons learned.

• Mia Dearden : I thought if I surprised you, I might actually stand a chance of kicking your butt. Then you tried to snap my windpipe.

  Oliver Queen : Well, you make a pretty convincing ninja.

  Mia Dearden : Oliver, that was more than an overreaction. You didn't even respond to your own name. It was like you were someone else.

  Oliver Queen : This coming from the woman in the mask.

• Oliver Queen : Vordigan. Our paths split a long time ago.

  Vordigan : You took your vows, Oliver. Now it's time to fulfill them.

  Oliver Queen : You embraced me as your own son. I can't follow in your footsteps.

  Vordigan : There comes a time where every master knows his best years are done. I was badly wounded for the first time, Oliver, because I wasn't fast enough, physically or mentally. I realized the process of decay has begun. Our tradition dictates the master must leave this world while he's still strong and respected. As my chosen successor, you must complete your final test. You need to kill me.

  Oliver Queen : You've taught me many things, Vordigan, about the kind of man what I wanted to become and the kind of man I didn't.

  Vordigan : Some men don't get to chose who they become. Your heart is dark like mine, Oliver.

  Oliver Queen : No. When I saw your true colors, Vordigan, I left.

  Vordigan : Come on, Oliver. You didn't abandon us because of higher moral conviction! You left because you like the thrill of the hunt a little too much. But you can't outrun fate. If you won't fulfill your duties... I will hunt down and kill your apprentice. And when you see her dead body, the dark archer in you will rise up, and you will hunt me down and take vengeance.

• Mia Dearden : What the hell was that all about?

  Oliver Queen : You tell *me*. I came here for our training session, Mia, not an audition for "Kill Bill 3."

• Chloe Sullivan : You okay? You don't look so great. Which, for you, is not exactly easy.

  Oliver Queen : Uh, I didn't realize Lois already had a visitor.

  Chloe Sullivan : Come on, Ollie. It's been years since you and Lois steamed up any elevator glass.

• Chloe Sullivan : I didn't want to tell you this over the phone, but...

  [showing him an x-ray] 

  Chloe Sullivan : Lois was shot with an arrow. It went in under her right shoulder. It didn't do any damage, but the doctor said that if it had been just a centimeter to the right or left, her artery would have been ceviche.

  Oliver Queen : She would've died in minutes.

  Chloe Sullivan : Lucky for her, the guy wasn't exactly William Tell.

  Oliver Queen : No. No, this guy makes William Tell look like a summer-camp archery coach. We're not dealing with just some random shot here, Chloe. That's a target specifically designed to take down your enemy without killing them. Our shooter's not an amateur. This guy's a crack marksman. Not many people in the world could hit that shot.

• Oliver Queen : Lois, what are you doing here?

  Lois Lane : Well, someone planted an arrow pretty damn close to my heart, and I don't think it's Cupid.

• Oliver Queen : There's someone after me, and I think they did this to you.

  Lois Lane : Okay, I get that there are some things that you have to keep from me, but why would they have attacked me?

  Oliver Queen : Because they know we were together and they're trying to hurt me.

  Lois Lane : What about all the other girls you were with? Why couldn't they have shot the Danish underwear model?

  Oliver Queen : Lois, this person knows everything about me. They know that out of all those other women, the only one I ever really cared about... was you.
