- Felicity Smoak: How'd it go with Oliver?
- Barry Allen: You know, to be honest, not exactly the partnership I thought it would be.
- Felicity Smoak: Oh, did he really do the thing with the arrows?
- Barry Allen: [exasperated] You knew he was gonna shoot me?
- Felicity Smoak: Well, it is practically impossible to tell when Oliver's making a joke.
- Caitlin Snow: Barry has super powers. Oliver has a bow and arrow.
- John Diggle: Do you have any idea how many people Oliver has killed with that bow and arrow?
- Cisco Ramon: Recurve bow arrows can travel up to 300 feet per second, so, like, 200 miles an hour. Barry can run three times that fast.
- John Diggle: Whatever. Oliver's been doing this a lot longer. My money's on experience.
- Cisco Ramon: My money's on speed.
- Felicity Smoak: Please tell me you're not actually having this conversation right now.
- John Diggle: I mean, do you think he can do everything really fast? I mean, like, how fast do you think he goes to the bathroom after he's eaten something?
- Oliver Queen: This is you watching my back?
- Oliver Queen: You're late. Barry, how can you have super speed and still not be on time?
- Barry Allen: Sorry, I guess the super tardiness kinda neutralizes it.
- Oliver Queen: I have a prison like this. Mine's on a nearly inhospitable island in the north China Sea, but this works too.
- Barry Allen: Hey, thanks for showing up back there, but I had that.
- Oliver Queen: Uh-huh.
- Barry Allen: What? I was ready to make my move!
- Oliver Queen: What move? The one to the morgue?
- Dr. Harrison Wells: Anger. Hate. Aggression.
- Cisco Ramon: [imitating Yoda] A Jedi craves not these things.
- Cisco Ramon: No one is feeling that quote?
- Oliver Queen: Last month you took on a man named Leonard Snart.
- Barry Allen: We call him Captain Cold.
- Oliver Queen: We can talk about you giving your enemies silly code names later.
- Barry Allen: You mean, like, over coffee with Deathstroke and the Huntress?
- Oliver Queen: Point taken.
- Barry Allen: How you doin', Dig?
- John Diggle: You're fast.
- Barry Allen: Did you guys not tell him about me?
- Felicity Smoak: Well, seeing is believing, or... drooling.
- Oliver Queen: There is a difference, Barry, between having powers and having precision.
- Barry Allen: Okay, when I came here thinking 'bout going out and helping people, you said I could be an inspiration.
- Oliver Queen: Living this life... well, it takes more than a mask. It takes discipline. And since you are probably as stubborn as I am...
- [Oliver brings out his bow and arrow]
- Barry Allen: W'ya... What is THAT for?
- Oliver Queen: You're gonna run over there, you're gonna come back at me, and you're gonna get hit with an arrow.
- Barry Allen: [laughs] No, I'm not.
- Oliver Queen: [laughs] Yes, you are.
- Barry Allen: Okay. Fine. I will humor you.
- [Barry runs up the field]
- Barry Allen: Ready?
- Oliver Queen: Ready.
- [Oliver fires an arrow at Barry, he runs towards Oliver and catches it]
- Barry Allen: Nice try.
- [Hidden arrows behind Barry strike him in his back]
- Barry Allen: Gah! Ah! What, you shot me?
- Oliver Queen: I heard you heal fast.
- [Oliver pulls the arrows out of Barry's back]
- Barry Allen: Ahh! Oh, God!
- Oliver Queen: My identity is a closely-guarded secret known only to a few and, if it were to get out, will endanger my family, my friends, and it would embolden my enemies to retaliate at me through them.
- Felicity Smoak: What Oliver is trying to say is that he had a lovely time working with you and getting to know each of you, and he can't wait to do it again soon.
- Oliver Queen: Right.
- Cisco Ramon: You know, it didn't sound like that's what he was saying.
- Roy G. Bivolo: You think this will stop me? I will make you tear each other to pieces! You will all die screaming with rage!
- Cisco Ramon: Blah, blah, blah, "no prison can hold me." Heard it all before, pal. Adios, Prism.
- Caitlin Snow: I liked "Rainbow Raider."
- Cisco Ramon: Okay, you don't get to pick the names.
- Iris West: [excited] You did not tell me that you knew Oliver Queen.
- Barry Allen: [flatly] I know Oliver Queen.
- Iris West: Oh, my God. He's even more handsome in person, and his arms are, like, TWICE the size of yours.
- Barry Allen: Technically they're not twice the size.
- Barry Allen: He calls himself "The Arrow" now.
- Joe West: Oh, does he... "Flash?"
- Barry Allen: Wait, what's the problem?
- Dr. Harrison Wells: We don't trust him.
- Barry Allen: You guys don't even know him.
- Joe West: I know that he was wanted for murder in at least twelve different cases dating back three years.
- Dr. Harrison Wells: I know there's been at least two major terrorist attacks in Starling since he became active.
- Barry Allen: All right, the cops there are cool with him now. He doesn't kill people anymore.
- Joe West: And what about all the criminals that he put arrows through? Those, what, don't count?
- Barry Allen: He's a hero, Joe.
- Dr. Harrison Wells: You're a hero, Barry. You offer protection, hope, light. What that man does is carry out a dark reckoning for his city. It is a brutal, violent vision of justice, one we do not share. You truly think he's a hero? Fine, so be it, but he's not the kind you should be looking up to.
- Oliver Queen: There's one more thing and you're not going to like it.
- Barry Allen: Does it involve you shooting me in the back?
- Oliver Queen: No. No, the heart.
- [looks over at Iris]
- Oliver Queen: That's not gonna work out for you. And you need to let her go, for both of your sakes. Guys like us don't get the girl.
- Felicity Smoak: My shirt's on fire!
- Barry Allen: Oh, I'm sorry!
- Felicity Smoak: I'm glad I decided not to go braless.
- Barry Allen: [sees Cisco and Caitlyn] You guys remember Felicity?
- Cisco Ramon: I'll always remember this.
- Oliver Queen: Barry, I have been living this life for almost eight years, encountering things that you can't even fathom, and I am still alive. Not because super-speed kept me out of the ground. It was because I realized that I needed to keep learning, keep training, keep getting smarter, and until you get that, despite your best intentions, you will do more harm than good.
- Barry Allen: I finally see it. You're a little bit jealous of me, aren't you? For a guy like you - handsome, rich, can have any girl he wants - jealousy's probably a new emotion for you, so you might be a little slow to get what it is that you're feeling.
- Oliver Queen: That's your theory?
- Barry Allen: Absolutely. So you can train, lift weights, climb that stupid barn till your heart explodes, but you'll never be as fast as I am. You'll never be what I am, and that's got to hurt your rock-hard pride, Ollie.
- Joe West: [about Barry] He was acting angry. It was scary. And his eyes... they glowed.
- Caitlin Snow: It's possible that his body is fighting off the effect, so it's hitting him slower.
- Dr. Harrison Wells: When it comes to rage, that is not a good thing. The longer you suppress your emotions...
- Felicity Smoak: ...the bigger the explosion.
- Joe West: Considering what he can do, how do we even stop him?
- Cisco Ramon: A cold-gun would come in real handy right about now.
- Joe West: Hey.
- Cisco Ramon: I'm just sayin'.
- Dr. Harrison Wells: None of us can stop Barry. Fortunately, Felicity knows someone who can. I think you better call back Oliver Queen. We're gonna need the Arrow's help.
- Dr. Harrison Wells: Mr. Queen, I met your father once. Charity event. One of the things we spoke of was you. I think he would be very proud of the man you've become.
- Oliver Queen: Thank you. And, please, call me Oliver.
- Barry Allen: Uh, well, since you guys are here, why don't we team up? I'll help you find your boomerang man, you can help me find my super rage-a-holic.
- Felicity Smoak: We'd love to.
- Oliver Queen: No, we'll handle our business and head home.
- Felicity Smoak: The fastest way to find out everything we need to know about the boomerang is to sic S.T.A.R. Labs on it.
- Oliver Queen: Enough people know my secret identity.
- Felicity Smoak: Fine. I'll go. They already know who I am. You can drop me off and I will meet up with you later.
- Barry Allen: How 'bout I give you a lift?
- Felicity Smoak: Whoo!
- [takes Felicity and speeds off]
- John Diggle: Man, that's not freaking you out?
- Oliver Queen: Okay.
- Barry Allen: Okay, what?
- Oliver Queen: Okay, we'll help you catch your bad guy.
- Barry Allen: Great. Meta-human.
- Oliver Queen: I am not calling him that, Barry.
- Felicity Smoak: Harrison Wells and Barry's cop foster dad both said you were dangerous and a bad influence. Barry defended you.
- Oliver Queen: You're gonna hawk me about this until I say yes, aren't you?
- Felicity Smoak: I'm a hawker.
- Street Punk #1: You got the shakes, man. What are you, tweaking, or just cold?
- Ronnie Raymond: I'm not cold.
- [ignites his hands and sets the street on fire]
- Detective Eddie Thawne: The blur, the Flash, the man in the red suit - whatever he's called - he was spotted at the bank this morning.
- Captain David Singh: You mean the bank that was robbed of half a million dollars where a dozen people tried to murder each other, and you think our attention should be focused on catching Santa Claus.
- Detective Eddie Thawne: I can't explain how he gets to and from crime scenes so fast. We need to figure out who this guy is and what he wants.
- Captain David Singh: You should ask your girlfriend. She writes fan fiction about him.
- Detective Eddie Thawne: Joe, help me out here.
- Joe West: Sorry, partner. I stopped believing in Santa when I was about eight.
- Barry Allen: The Arrow gets results.
- Joe West: He's a crazy man.
- Barry Allen: Look, I don't actually disagree with you at the moment, but we wouldn't even have Bivolo's name if it weren't for the Arrow; so, maybe instead of judging him, you should just be thanking him.
- Joe West: Two things I won't be doing in this life - playing professional baseball and thanking that lunatic.
- The Flash: Who the hell are you, huh? You think you can just come along and get to have whatever you want? What gives you the right?
- Detective Eddie Thawne: What the hell are you talking about?
- Iris West: What are you doing? What has happened to you?
- The Flash: I feel fine.
- Iris West: You are not fine.
- The Flash: How would you know? Because you write about me? You don't know me! You don't know who I am. You never did.
- Iris West: I know that you have risked your life to help people, to save them! Some one who does that does not suddenly turn around and want to hurt people. Please.
- Detective Eddie Thawne: I've already missed the gym.
- Iris West: Ugh, no. Five more minutes. Come on, we never get to sleep in.
- Detective Eddie Thawne: I know. But your dad hates tardiness. Buzzkill.
- Iris West: The buzziest.
- Iris West: Is this your way of telling me that you want satellite radio for Christmas? Look, I'm not mad at you.
- Detective Eddie Thawne: Good, 'cause there no reason you should be.
- Iris West: Eddie, both you and The Flash care about protecting this city. You would both give your lives for it. You're more alike than you think, okay? He's not the bad guy.
- Detective Eddie Thawne: How do you know so much about him, Iris?
- Iris West: He got in touch with me after I started the blog, and I've seen him a couple times.
- Detective Eddie Thawne: A couple times? Why didn't you tell me about this?
- Iris West: Well, given the fact that I think he's a hero, and you want to put him in jail, do you really want to ask that question?
- Detective Eddie Thawne: How could you ever think I would be okay with this?
- [the Flash speeds up to the car and yanks Eddie from his seat and throws him to the ground]
- The Flash: I heard you've been looking for me. All this time, you've been trying to catch me, and I caught you first. Guess you haven't read your girlfriend's blog.
- Cisco Ramon: Barry, bank robbery in progress at Cunningham and Sampere.
- The Flash: I got it.
- Caitlin Snow: Wait, that's where I bank.
- Cisco Ramon: Once super thieves showed up, I went mattress.
- Iris West: Another picture of The Flash came in. See?
- Detective Eddie Thawne: That red blur? How do you know that wasn't photoshopped?
- Iris West: It wasn't. It's not a hoax or a mass hallucination. You know, every day, someone new accepts the impossible and believes in him. Why can't you?
- Detective Eddie Thawne: I believe in what I can see... what I can touch... what I can feel. Which means I believe in you.
