Rene Ramirez • Wild Dog
- John Diggle: The Scorpions? Yeah. I know 'em. But Diaz is on something different. New muscle, new crew. They're way too organized.
- Rene Ramirez: I wonder when he got himself a new crew and how he got to be the boss of it.
- Dinah Drake: And why he needs a weapons-grade 3-D printer.
- Curtis Holt: I think I have the answer to that. Drugs. High-end ones. I cross-referenced the two models that were stolen. What they have in common is their capacity to simultaneously print inert polypropylenes and soft material catalyst composites.
- Rene Ramirez: Did anyone understand a word of that?
- Felicity Smoak: You think Diaz is making Reactionware?
- Rene Ramirez: Anyone normal.
- Felicity Smoak: Curtis, you were right. The thieves were after the components of a 3-D printer.
- Rene Ramirez: Two innocent people get killed because some psycho wants to print plastic toys?
- Curtis Holt: This wasn't a consumer 3-D printer. This was military grade.
- Rene Ramirez: You're saying there's a printer that can print weapons?
- Curtis Holt: Or drones or chemicals.
- Dinah Drake: Sorry I missed the fun. Anyone want to catch me up?
- John Diggle: Break-in, Cadmus Tech.
- Dinah Drake: You're thinking Cayden James?
- Curtis Holt: That's what we were assuming, but this crew doesn't look like the type he ususally runs with.
- Dinah Drake: That would track with some new street chatter SCPD's been hearing lately.
- Rene Ramirez: What kind of chatter?
- Dinah Drake: New player. No idea what his game is. All we have is a street name: Dragon.
- Felicity Smoak: Dragon. Heh. That's colorful.
- John Diggle: Tomorrow's problem. Why don't we all get some rack time, hit this fresh in the morning?
- Rene Ramirez: Hey, anybody in the mood to stress eat?
- Felicity Smoak: Always. What you got?
- Dinah Drake: Quadruple cheese. Must be serious.
- Rene Ramirez: What's going on here?
- John Diggle: Trying to get a line on this Dragon guy, find out what he and his crew are up to.
- Felicity Smoak: [her computer buzzes] Well, at least we know where they are. Just got a security alert; Palmer Tech, bio division.
- John Diggle: Good. Suit up. Stay sharp. Remember, these guys aren't afraid of dropping bodies.
- Felicity Smoak: I ran facial recognition over John's body cam footage. Meet Ricardo Diaz and his extensive criminal record. Does anyone want to guess what his street name is?
- [silence]
- Felicity Smoak: Anyone want to guess?
- [another silence]
- Felicity Smoak: You guys are no fun. His street name is Dragon.
- Dinah Drake: This jerkward's been out of prison less than a month. He's already racked up a body count.
- Rene Ramirez: This guy was doing double jolts of life plus one.
- Curtis Holt: What's that?
- Dinah Drake: Life without parole.
- Rene Ramirez: What's he doing walking around?
- Felicity Smoak: State Supreme Court overturned his convicitions due to technicalities. But before he was on the inside, he was running with a group called the Scorpions in the Glades.
- Curtis Holt: He doesn't show up on traffic cams. He doesn't leave a paper trail. Ricardo Diaz is good.
- Felicity Smoak: How's the research on his old associates going?
- Rene Ramirez: It's going lousy. Everybody mentioned in his arrest records is either missing or dead.
- Dinah Drake: Explains why no one's willing to talk to the department about Dragon.
- John Diggle: The moment I hesitated, even as the flames grew closer... that was my rock bottom. I should've told you all about the tremor from the beginning. I'm truly sorry I didn't.
- Rene Ramirez: So you're saying the tremor started before Black Siren showed her face in Star City?
- John Diggle: Yes. And that's why, Rene, I owe you the biggest apology of all. You should've known what was going on before we ever got to that bridge, man. My pride almost got you killed. I betrayed your trust, put your lives in danger. All I can ask is that you forgive me, but I understand if you can't.
- Rene Ramirez: Well, getting shot wasn't great, but if I'm counting the times you've saved my life against the times you almost got me killed, you're still ahead.
- Curtis Holt: So, have you already had an electromyogram? Wait. What am I talking about? We need to start off with an NCV test first.
- John Diggle: Curtis, it's been a long night. Is there any way we can do this in the morning?
- Curtis Holt: Sure thing. It would be my honor. It would be my pleasure.
- Rene Ramirez: [fake cough] Kiss ass.
