Lt. Trotter
- Lt. Trotter: Almost done, Mr. Queen.
- Oliver Queen: What's with the secret workout room here, huh? Is this, uh, a secret tryout for the NFL?
- Slade Wilson: You're strong and extremely agile with coordination that's off the charts.
- Oliver Queen: I'm human.
- Slade Wilson: Well, I commend your performance. We'd love to someone with your gifts serve our country. Help us bring your less cooperative cohorts.
- Oliver Queen: Look, I'll be your poster boy. I'll say your words, I'll be your face, but it ends with *me*, you understand? Now, there are people out there who want to believe in you. They want to believe in this country. Give them a chance to prove that, to be the heroes that we all need.
- Slade Wilson: You got nerve, I like that. But your draft card wasn't a two-for-one special. Please, allow me to make a more convincing argument.
- Slade Wilson: Liberty, freedom, equality. These are the values that we have been charged with defending. And never in the history of this country have these principles been so threatened as they are today.
- Admiral: With all due respect, Slade, our troops have worked hard to secure this time of peace.
- Slade Wilson: The threat is within. Creeping up on a sleeping nation. Gentlemen, every person under our protection lies in wait for that leader that will rescue them from poverty, from violence, even from sadness. They will hail him as their new hero. Heroes like Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler, Saddam Hussein. In the hearts of their countrymen, these men rose as saviors. Only turning into tyrants once they had secured the trust of their nation.
- Admiral: You're not suggesting a coup?
- Slade Wilson: The trust of the American people doesn't lie in the Oval Office anymore, Admiral, but in a new breed of hero. Every year, this league grows while the nation turns a blind eye.
- Lt. Trotter: Two weeks ago, the bombing of an anti-vigilante office was an open act of terrorism.
- Slade Wilson: Which is why the president appointed me to oversee the Vigilante Registration Act. Since the VRA came into effect, even known offenders haven't agreed to sign up. Well, that is about to change.
- Lt. Trotter: Sir, we have a breach at Poseidon 34-59.
- Slade Wilson: Gentlemen, even as we speak, it looks like we have fallen under another vigilante assault, this time on one of our own installations. It's time we took these "heroes" under our control and proved who is really fighting for truth, justice, and the American way.
