"So, it turns out that our other sister is a criminal." Thea said after Oliver told the team about Emiko.
"She's a survivor who did what she had to do to support herself and her mother after our father abandoned them." Oliver pointed out.
"Fair point." Thea conceded.
"Still, Oliver, how can you be sure she's not playing you?" John asked.
"John, her mother was nearly killed, not in that fire, but by a sniper. She wants payback and I doubt she would've told me all of this if she wasn't sincere. I'm not saying I trust her yet, since I'm pretty sure she doesn't trust me either. But we're both willing to give each other a chance." Oliver said and John nodded.
"I get that, but still, be careful. Long lost sibling reunions don't always go the way we hope." John said and Oliver knew he was thinking of Andy.
"I know. But that's a risk we have to take." Oliver said as Laurel entered the bunker.
"Well, in the meantime, I've got something else to put your focus on." Laurel said.
"Wait, did you know about this?" Thea asked.
"Ollie told last night. One of the perks of being his wife." Laurel said with a smile.
"Her compensation for not being able to be Black Canary for foreseeable future." Oliver explained and Thea nodded.
"Anyways, you said you had something else for us to work on." John asked.
"Yeah, Stardust." Laurel said.
"Hot new drug in the Glades." Roy said.
"Exactly. There's only one supplier, Derek Sampson." Laurel said.
"Both of the Glades Police Task Force and the rest of the SCPD have been searching for him for months, but he's practically a ghost." Thea said, since she and Roy had personally tried hunting for Sampson.

"Why didn't you tell us this sooner?" Oliver asked.
"It didn't seem significant given everything else." Thea said.
"Fair enough. But anyways, what do you need from us?" Oliver asked, returning their attention to his wife.
"Your resources. You all have contacts resources that the SCPD don't have access to. I'm hoping that you can use them to get us a lead on Sampson." Laurel said.
"I'll check with the Bratva, John, check with Lyla and Argus, we need to check every lead we can." Oliver said.
"Looks like this time we can be a bit more persuasive." Roy said to Thea, who nodded, since this time, they could use more effective methods than they had when they'd gone after Sampson as cops.
"No, Roy, I want you to check with your contacts in the streets. There has to be someone who's willing to talk. And if they don't, well, then Thea gets to play vigilante." Oliver said and Thea grinned.
"I'll go suit up." Thea said eagerly.
"She is way too excited about this." Roy said and Oliver shrugged.
"Considering Thea's past with drugs, it's no surprise she's eager to take as many dealers off the streets as possible." Oliver said.
"Just remind her no killing. The city is seeing you guys as heroes, let's not do anything to change that." Laurel said.
"I'll make sure she remembers. But maybe I should suit up to. Something tells me my old contacts aren't going to be as willing to talk to a member of the SCPD." Roy said and Oliver nodded at that.
"Do it." Oliver said.
"Oh and Oliver, when this is over, we need to talk." Roy said.
"The answer is yes Roy." Oliver said, taking the three of them aback.

"Wait, what?" Roy asked.
"My mother called me as soon as you left the mansion and I agree with her. No man will ever be good enough for Thea, but you're close enough." Oliver said.
"Wait, you're planning on proposing?" Laurel asked.
"Yeah. And keep it down, I don't want Thea to know." Roy said.
"The secret is safe with us." John said and Laurel nodded.
"Hey, where's Winn?" Laurel asked.
"Don't know. He requested some time off. I didn't look into it. He checks in to assure us that he hasn't been abducted, but after what went down with his father, I think we can all understand his desire for some time off." Oliver said and they all nodded.
