Arrow

My name is Oliver Queen.

After 5 years in hell, I returned home

with only one goal-- to save my city,

but my old approach wasn't enough.

I had to become someone else.

I had to become something else.

I had to become the Green Arrow.

Previously on "Arrow."

Someone else is throwing their hat in the ring.

ho?

Ruvé Adams.

I'm Oliver.

He can't know that you're his father,

and nobody else can.

I know who Oliver Queen cares about more than anyone.

Who?

His son...

William.

Merritt Davis will be moderating the debate.

There will be a podium there, another one there,

and according to tradition,

the selection's made by some coin toss thingy.

Mr. Queen.

At last, we meet.

Ms. Adams, I'm just curious.

Is Adams your maiden name?

Oh, I'm not married actually.

Really?

Mm-hmm.

Well, I'm sure you just haven't met the right person yet.

Well, it is lovely to finally meet you,

an unconventional candidate to say the least.

Bit of a dark horse yourself.

Just meaning that your candidacy seems

to have come out of nowhere.

Well, generally, I prefer to keep

my philanthropic works quiet,

but the city is in simply too much trouble

for me to remain in the shadows.

Yes, it is.

The people destroying our homes

need to be fought in the light of day.

Well, I hope that we have a productive debate, Mr. Queen.

I look forward to it...

Ms. Adams.

More like Mrs. Deceitful-Darhk.

I feel like Adams probably polls better.

It's not like we can prove that Adams

isn't her real last name.

How is our opposition research coming?

Uh, nothing yet.

She's apparently clean, but the more we do

digging into her and her background,

the more likely she's gonna dig into ours.

I think that's our cue.

Wait, wait.

I really need you to take a look

at these engagement party invites.

My mom's been hounding me.

The envelope is very pink.

Wait! Don't...

Open it.

Should have totally seen that one coming.

I'm so sorry. What do you think?

Maybe less glitter.

You look good in glitter.

Yeah. Let's move out.

The valet's bringing up her car.

All right. Laurel's got the eyeball.

You should move.

Are you gonna be all right in here?

Oh, yeah. Great Wi-Fi.

Overwatch on.

I've got her approaching 7th.

Think she's headed to her house again?

Like she did the last 6 times we trailed her, you mean?

She has to be coordinating with Darhk somehow.

We keep this up, we learn how,

we find out where he is.

I've run out of roof.

I'm on it.

If she turns left on Wilson,

she'll be headed home.

Then she's not. Right turn.

Could be our lucky night.

Speedy, you're it.

Got her!

Green Arrow, you ready for the handoff?

Already there.

I've got eyes on.

I lost her.

What do you mean? That pursuit was textbook.

You had an appointment with my husband

the other week.

He does not take kindly to being stood up,

and he has a little something to say

about you stalking his wife, as well.

Are you all right?

She got away again.

Ok. So clearly, we're not gonna find

Darhk by tailing his wife.

Yeah. Well, it's not like we have a lot

of moves left to make.

Darhk has gone, well, dark

ever since Machin attacked his family.

But Darhk is not afraid of Machin.

He's just--his plan's gone to a new phase.

And how do you know that?

Because HIVE spent months trying to cripple

this city's leadership.

They discouraged people from running for mayor.

They even tried to co-opt my candidacy.

Yeah. Then Mrs. Evil threw her hat in the ring.

There has to be a reason.

Darhk did not try and destroy Star City

so that his wife could be mayor.

There's something that we're not seeing.

Oh, I can see it clear as day.

You on the podium Thursday night vexing

Oliver Queen with your political legerdemain.

Until we take him out of the game completely, you mean.

Oh, you're not reconsidering the plan?

Malcolm Merlyn reached out,

gave me an early birthday present.

It would be a shame not to make use of it.

Ah! My buddies!

Let's get the rest of the organization on the line.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I am giddy to report that

phase 4 is proceeding on schedule.

There's still some concern about the Star City operation.

Enlighten me.

Phase 5 requires control over city hall,

yet somehow we've found ourselves mired

in a petty political race to see that happen.

We didn't exactly plan on

Oliver Queen, did we?

No one ever does.

I think what Mr. Armitage

is too polite to say

is that phase 5 now rests on your wife's

questionable political acumen.

Tomas, how is Madrid this time of year?

I remember taking a siesta in your office once.

I can practically picture the room right now

as if I'm actually in it.

Ok, then. Anything else to cover.

Well, there is the matter of Quentin Lance.

He's clearly been aiding the vigilantes.

I can confirm as much.

Oh, don't worry.

That loose end is about to be well-tied.

Hi.

Hey. Time for my 8:00 feed already?

Funny. I thought you could use a little pick-me-up.

I think you used that excuse last week

to check up on me.

DA's office never worked with my department so much.

I'm just--I'm worried about you.

No kidding.

No, Dad, seriously,

Darhk has to know that you're the one

that gave up the Ghost base of operations.

And I go to work every day surrounded

by men and women with guns.

It is all right, sweetheart.

It's all right. Hello. Lance.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

All right. I'll be there in 10.

Got a possible 602.

Isn't that a little below your pay grade?

Uh, yeah. That's how short-handed we are.

Good. I'll come with you.

I'll wait in the car, and then we can go for dinner.

I got--I got plans with Donna.

That's even better.

I've been wanting to spend some time

with the woman that won over my father's heart.

Oh, wow.

Oh, I knew we should have had Slade Wilson

do the party planning.

Hey, guys.

I, um--you know, I--I don't know

how I'm gonna get everything done in time.

Maybe we should cancel.

What?

I think what Felicity is trying to say

is that we--we just don't--

we don't want you working too hard.

I don't consider this work.

I--I think of it as a dry run

for your wedding.

So listen. We are gonna have party favors

over in that corner.

We're gonna have a champagne tower right here.

Hoo hoo!

And we're gonna play games

over by the fireplace.

Oh, oh, oh. I brought my favorite--
