Green Arrow: It's nice of you to show up.John Diggle: My brother needed me. The green one.
Oliver Queen: John, you are the one who always tells me do not have a blind spot when it comes to your family.John Diggle: And you're the one who told me to give Andy a second chance. You're the one who wanted to extract him from HIVE. You're the one who said he could come back from the darkness the same way you did.Oliver Queen: But I didn't. I've tried. I've tried harder at this than I ever have at anything, but at the end of the day, I am who those 5 years turned me into, I'm what they turned me into.John Diggle: So what, Oliver, just because Felicity left you, I'm supposed to believe that all men are incapable of redemption? Not all men are like you, Oliver. Some of us change, some of us grow, some of us evolve. You are stuck, man, stuck in your self-pity and your self-righteousness, and that is why Felicity left you. My brother is my business. You have no idea what he's been through, and you sure as hell had no right right to judge him.
Felicity Smoak: So, on a scale of 1 to 10, how mad at us are you?Oliver Queen: I need to learn to let people help me.Felicity Smoak: Yeah, you could use some practice in that. I just think sometimes, you are so focused on people you love, you forget to see that there are people who love you.
One more thing from me. The doctor said your condition is permanent, and I don't think it's healthy or productive for either of us to live in denial, but I have seen people speed and shrink and fly. We watched a friend of ours come back from the dead--that is the world we live in now, and I will not stop searching it until we find a way to make you walk again.
