David Ramsey credited as playing...
John Diggle • Green Arrow
- John Diggle: I don't know how you did it. You never hesitated to make the call. You were always sure.
- Oliver Queen: I'm not. I was never sure, not one time. I'm very flattered that it... it looked that way on the outside, but on the inside it was... it was instinct. It was instinct, and it was fear.
- John Diggle: Yeah, but you worked past it.
- Oliver Queen: Well, you'll work past it, too. Now, I'm not gonna sit here and say that you won't make mistakes, that you won't lose people along the way. You know, most... most will be strangers, but some... well, some won't be. Because, John, you're one of the main reasons that the Green Arrow even exists.
- John Diggle: What are you talking about?
- Oliver Queen: The Restons.
- John Diggle: The bank robbers?
- Oliver Queen: The bank robbers, yeah. You were the first person who convinced me to look past just the names on my father's list. You helped me discover that the Hood - that persona - he wasn't a hero. You... you helped me find one. All of this - the Green Arrow, the idea of it - it exists because you had faith in me. Now you got to have the same kind of faith in yourself. Because if you do, you can be a better leader. You can be a better hero than I ever was.
- John Diggle: I just wanted to say thank you for having my back with the team. Now truth be told, I um... I was a bit surprised considering you...
- Dinah Drake: Well don't be surprised, and don't think I said what I said for you. I said it because the team needs a leader. Without a chain of command, we're easy picking out there.
- John Diggle: Okay, I guess this is why you decided not to tell anyone about my injury, right?
- Dinah Drake: It is. But honestly, as worried as I am about your hand, after last night, I'm a little more worried about your head.
- John Diggle: I know. Hey, Dinah... I know. Look, every time I've had to give orders in the army, on this team, there was always someone there backing my plays. I'm not used to making the hard calls alone. No one is more disappointed in me than me.
- Dinah Drake: Well, next time get it right. Our lives depend on it.
- Rene Ramirez: Can we do this after every win?
- Felicity Smoak: Well, a new tradition for a new era--I like that.
- Curtis Holt: To go with our new Team Arrow victory dance.
- Dinah Drake: Didn't know we had an old one.
- John Diggle: We don't--never will. Things won't be changing around here that much.
- Rene Ramirez: Look, there's something you should know.
- John Diggle: You went to Oliver.
- Rene Ramirez: [Looking to Dinah] You told him.
- John Diggle: She didn't have to. I know you, Rene. I know all of you. It's a leader's job too.
- Felicity Smoak: Oh, yes... So, Curtis and I have been working on a little something in our spare time, very limited spare time, may I add.
- Curtis Holt: [Curtis carries in a customized crossbow] We call it... the Green Monster. Or something cooler than that, like pretty much whatever you want to call it. The important part is that it shoots arrows instead of crossbow bolts. 260 pound draw weight, the arrows exit the gate at 400FPS, that's feet per second. Integrated recoil energy dissipation system.
- Curtis Holt: Adjustable mount, scope, quick detach quiver, pistol grip, finger guard, non-slip rubber insert.
- Rene Ramirez: You two want a moment alone?
- Felicity Smoak: You want to take it for a spin?
- Dinah Drake: [Diggle tests it and hits his mark four times in a row] Did you guys put stabilizers on that thing?
- Curtis Holt: Nope, taht aim there is pure John Diggle.
- Felicity Smoak: Not a bad idea though for the next upgrade.
- Dinah Drake: Nice going. Steady.
- John Diggle: See, told you. Tremor's gone.
- Dinah Drake: Well, I'm convinced. You were wrong about one thing, though.
- John Diggle: What's that?
- Dinah Drake: You can make the hard calls on your own just fine.
