"I am glad to see that I am getting smart and trying to stay away from the alcohol and drugs." Laurel said.
"We all know that we will not let that happen now that we know that you can go down that path. It might be better for you to go dry just in case." Sara said.
"I agree. I don't really need to drink anyways." Laurel said.
"So, what do you think is going to happen now?" Thea asked.
"Well, it looks like we are probably getting to the part where everything starts to happen, so I think things are going to start to get interesting." Tommy said as he and everyone else walked back into the room to watch the video.
Frank Bertinelli was picked up by the police in a raid and taken into custody. Everyone knew that this meant that Helena would be back to try and kill her father, so they had to be ready.
Donner, one of the ADA's hired Laurel back to try the case against Bertinelli. Helena gets to the courthouse and takes hostages, and she says she will exchange them for her father.
Sara enters the courthouse and finds Laurel and they go and hide in one of the offices. Laurel finds a bottle of liquor and she is about to take a drink. Sara stops her by asking Laurel to show her how strong she is. Sara then tries to get Laurel out of the courthouse, but Laurel won't leave the hostages, so they go and try to fight their way to the hostages, but Sara is sent out a window and Laurel is taken hostage.
Later Helena gets in touch with Oliver and tells him that she will exchange Laurel for her father. Oliver agrees and Quentin helps him do this. Bertinelli is killed by a SWAT officer who was there to take down the vigilantes because he doesn't like the way they do things. Quentin arrests Helena and while she is at the police station, Oliver visits her, and she says that he was right, and she doesn't feel better after her father is dead like she thought she would.
Laurel then goes back to work and finds out that she really wasn't hired back, that the ADA didn't have the authority to do that. Laurel tells the DA that she will hire her back or she will tell everyone that they brought her back just for this case and that would make her look bad. Laurel was then hired back because the DA didn't want to look bad for something one of her employees did.
Roy is told by Oliver that he is too dangerous to be around Thea, so he needs to break up with her. To do this he makes out with another employee at Verdant and Thea sees him, and she breaks up with him. Thea is very upset, so she is walking home when a limo pulls up and it happens to be Slade Wilson inside. He says that he will give her a ride home.
"Well, that doesn't look good." Thea said.
"Not at all." Moira said.
It turns out that Slade kidnaps Thea and no one knows about it until when Moira and Blood were having a debate and a video is put up with a shot of Thea being held by her kidnapper.
Oliver then goes to the office and gives Isabel temporary leadership of the company. He later finds out that Isabel used her power to become the sole CEO of the company and kicking Oliver out. When Oliver goes to find out why she is doing this he finds out that she is working for Slade. Isabel tells Oliver where Thea is being held and he goes to rescue her.

Oliver fights his way through the building and when he gets to where Thea should have been, he finds that she is not there. He contacts Felicity and she tells him that Thea had just shown up at the police department. When Oliver and Moira get there, they find out that Slade told Thea that she is Malcolm's daughter, and she is mad at them for keeping this from her.
Quentin was arrest because he arrested Slade Wilson because the Arrow was involved with the arrest. He had been warned about working with the Arrow. He had also been demoted because of it.
While all of this is going on Slade is out on the street stopping a bus full of prisoners and breaking them out to use for his army. Slade is later announced to be the person who kidnapped Thea, so he is now on the run. He stops by Laurel's and says that Oliver is the Arrow, which shocks Laurel, but it also makes since when she really thinks about it.
"Well, that didn't happen the way I thought it would." Laurel said.
"Nothing ever really does, does it?" Quentin said.
Team Arrow breaks into the Applied Sciences building of QC and blows it up so that they cannot use the technology in the building to make the Mirakuru. This causes Slade to attack the lair and steal the skeleton key. Slade then goes to the STAR Labs location in Star City and steals a machine that will help him transfer the Mirakuru from his blood to the body of the prisoner that he broke out.
Oliver gets Felicity to keep track of places that are using a lot of electricity because that is probably where the machine is being used, because it uses so much power. Once Felicity finds the location, Oliver goes and tries to stop Slade.
When Oliver arrives, he finds out that they are using Roy for the Mirakuru. Oliver turns the machine off and gets Roy out of there. On the way out Slade and Isabel walk in and Diggle comes in and give him cover fire and ends up killing Isabel.
Oliver stole a vile of the Mirakuru and told Felicity to get it to her friends at STAR Labs because he knows that there is a cure for it. She sends the sample to Caitlin and Cisco for them to work on the cure.
Laurel goes to the prison because Quentin was attacked that day. She is about to tell him who the Arrow is, but he stops her because he doesn't want to know. Laurel then talks to the DA and is able to get her father released because she used blackmail.
Oliver tries to get Thea to see that Robert knew about Malcolm being her father and that it didn't matter to him. It didn't matter to Thea because in a way that made Robert a liar as well. She then leaves the mansion.
"Am I always that much of a bitch?" Thea asked.
"No, you are just stubborn when you get something in your head." Moira said.
"I agree. You aren't always like that, but when you do get to that point you can't let it go." Tommy said.
The team hooks Roy up to snake venom so that he is kept unconscious until they get the cure. Roy wakes up and escapes the lair. Roy then goes all over the city causing trouble because he is not in control of his actions anymore.
Thea comes into the mansion and tells Moira that she can not use the club for her campaign the next night and Moira tells Thea that she has no choice because she signed a contract. Oliver had Diggle tailing Thea a day to keep her safe from Roy.

Roy is walking around in the Glades and Sin sees him and she walks over to him and he hits her. Some guys come over to help out and Roy beats all of them up. They track Roy to the clock tower and Oliver and Sara go in after him. Roy injures Oliver's knee really badly and escapes. When he gets down to the ground cops are there. Roy ends up killing one of the cops with an arrow.
Oliver gets too Verdant to help Moira with her campaign and he finds out that she is going to drop out of the race to help Thea. Oliver talks her out of it, and he finds out that his mother has known about him being the Arrow for a long time now and that she is very proud of him.
Moira gives a speech and once she is done Thea gets up and gives a speech which is meant to draw Roy there. Oliver goes and changes into his suit and Sara gets a gun because she thinks that there is not other way than to kill him. Sin gets in her way which allows Oliver the time to inject Roy with snake venom. After this Sara decides to leave Oliver because she doesn't want to bring her darkness into his life. She leaves saying she is going to see a friend.
Later Oliver, Moira and Thea are in the limo going home. Thea talks to the other and they decide that they are going to be honest with each other now. The limo is hit by another vehicle. When Oliver wakes up, he sees that Moira and Thea are tied up and Slade is standing behind them. Oliver is tied up well and can't get free.
Slade tells Oliver to choose like Ivo told him to. Oliver refuses to do this so Moira sacrifices herself and is killed by Slade stick his sword through her heart.
"Shit. I didn't see that coming." Tommy said.
"We aren't going to let it happen either." Thea said.
"Damn right we aren't." Sara said.
Everyone is at Moira's funeral but Oliver. Diggle and Felicity try to find him but are having no luck. They finally decide to go to ARGUS to find him because they were having no luck and it was the only things that they could think of. Waller told them that Oliver was at his backup lair. When they get there, they talk to Oliver for a while and find out that he is planning on turning himself over to Slade so that no one else would die.
Isabel is shown to be alive because of the Mirakuru. She pretty much threatens Felicity and Diggle at the funeral reception. She also goes to Verdant and tells Thea that it is being shut down because it is property of QC.
After Oliver talks to Thea and finds out that she will be leaving town for a while, which he agrees with, he makes a call to Isabel telling her that he is turning himself over to Slade. He is going to meet him at the docks where everything started. He thinks that it is Slade that is walking up behind him but his is hit with a tranquilizer dart and passes out.
Oliver wakes up back in the lair and he sees Felicity and Diggle and then he sees someone he didn't expect to see. Laurel. She tells him that Slade told her his secret and that he can't just turn himself over. He disagrees with her until she tells him that Blood works with Slade and she has the proof to show it this time.
Oliver goes to meet with Blood, and he tells him that he knows that he is working with Slade and that he is the Arrow. Blood pretty much laughs in his face and tells him that the city is going to be better soon.
Oliver goes in the sewers where the Mirakuru soldiers are and is going to kill them when Diggle blows the charges he is setting up. That didn't work out because he is attacked by Isabel. Oliver is trying to fight off some of the soldiers and Laurel hits one of them from behind with a pipe. Oliver and Laure run but are cutoff when the reach a dead end.
"This doesn't look good for the city." Diggle said.
"No, I think everything is going to get torn up." Quentin said.
"Looks that way to me too." Roy said.
Oliver fires an explosive arrow causing the tunnel to cave in. Laurel is inside the rocks with Oliver's bow and quiver. He tells her to find an explosive arrow and blow her way out and she does. At the same time Felicity goes and saves Diggle by running over Isabel with the van. It didn't kill her, but it slowed her down. They then go and pick Oliver and Laurel up.
Felicity gets a call from STAR Labs saying that the cure is on the way. Laurel gets out of the van and goes the opposite way to get to the police station that her father is at. They try to find the cure but when they get to the car, the man with the cure was dead and the cure was gone. On the way back to the lair the van is flipped, and Felicity is injured. They go to the clock tower because the lair is compromised. Oliver tells Diggle that they need to get Roy out of the lair and to the clock tower.
Laurel is on her way to the police station when she runs into one of the soldiers. Sara saves her and Laurel lets her know that she figured out that it was her. Sara told Laurel her league name which was The Canary in English. On the way to the police station there was a fire and Sara went in to save some people. A woman asked Laurel who that was, and she said the Canary.
Oliver finds that his phone is ringing and that it is Blood calling him. He answers and finds out that Blood has the cure because he wants to stop Slade because Slade is trying to destroy the city. Oliver goes and meets with him and gets the cure. Later Isabel walks into Blood's office and kills him for betraying Slade.
Thea is at the train station when one of the soldiers enters and tries to kill everyone there. When the soldier gets near Thea the soldier is shot with an arrow. She sees that it is Malcolm, and she runs away.
Oliver has the cure and is going to use it on Roy, but he decides that he can't just test it on him. Once he finds out the Waller is going to bomb the city, he knows that he has no choice but to test it on Roy, so he does that.
Thea is running down the tracks to get away from Malcolm who is following her. He is attacked by a soldier and then kills him. Thea picks up a gun and shots Malcolm with it thinking that he is dead.
"I wish that was permanent, but I am pretty sure that it isn't." Thea said.
"Unfortunately, you are probably right." Laurel said.
"I know she is right. That is League Armor. It is bullet proof." Sara said.
Oliver and the team are in the clock tower when it is attacked by soldiers. Roy wakes up and it is found that the cure works because he hurt his hand when he tried to hit one of the soldiers. They zipline out of thee tower just as a helicopter blows up the tower with the soldiers in it. Lyla is revealed to be in the copter.
The team goes back to the lair to start filling injection arrows with the cure. While they are there Sara, Nyssa, and League member enter the lair. After the have finished with the arrows the team went to QC to stop Slade. They are able to take everyone out except for Slade because of the armor he is wearing. Slade is able to escape on a zipline.
Diggle and Lyla are going to ARGUS to try and stop the drone that is going to bomb the city. When they enter the building, they go and release some of the Suicide Squad member such as Deadshot. They then go up to the command center where Waller is.
At the police station Quentin is finally a detective again and is now leading the department and helping team arrow at the same time. One of the people who
was arrested earlier turned out to be a soldier and tore up the whole department before Quentin put some grenades on him and blew him up. Quentin was injured in the attack. Laurel was later kidnapped by one of the soldiers and taken to Slade.
Oliver had to find a way to get the cure into Slade, so he set up a trick for Slade by telling Felicity that he loved her and that he wanted to keep her safe by her staying in the Mansion. He gave her a syringe of the cure and he left her there because he knew about the cameras.
Later Oliver and his team went to the tunnel and started using the cure on all of the soldiers until they were all down. He got on the phone with Slade, and he was told where to come and find Laurel and Felicity.
Thea meat Roy at his house and they are going to leave town together. Roy tells Thea that he has to do something first and he leaves. Thea finds Roy's bow and arrow and decides to leave him because she can't trust him. She is later seen getting in a car with Malcolm and leaving the city with him.
Oliver got there and he was talking to Slade when all of a sudden Felicity stabs him in the neck with the syringe and injects him with the cure. This distracts Slade and Laurel, and Felicity are able to get away. It is then seen where Oliver and Slade are on the roof fighting. It goes back and forth for a while and then Oliver is able to get the upper hand and tie Slade to a post with one of his arrows. Oliver tells Waller that it is over, and Waller calls off the drone strike.
Sara made a deal with the League for their help, so she had to leave and go back with them. She got on a ship with them, but she left her jacket with Laurel. As they were leaving Quentin had a heart attack or some kind of heart problem.
Later Oliver is back on Lian Yu putting Slade in the prison that he had built there. Once he was done, he had talk with Felicity about how he had to fake Slade out because he knew that the cameras were in the house. They all then flew back home.
"Damn, the city just keeps getting torn to pieces." Quentin said.
"Yeah, but it could have been worse. It could be a crater if Waller had her way." Diggle said.
"Yeah, I guess you are right." Quentin said.
"I wonder if this is where Oliver starts to have feelings for Felicity?" Laurel asked.
"It is. But it would have never happened if you would have never let him go. You can see later in the videos that he still loved you. I will not give details because you will just have to see it for yourself." Mia said.
"Sounds interesting. So, what do we get to see now?" Thea asked.
"It is time for you to get into the game somewhat." Conner said.
"Cool. I can't believe I went off with Malcolm though." Thea said.
"Yeah. Not your finest moment. Let's go get something to eat and take a break. Then we will come back and see what happens in year three." Conner said and everyone got up and left the room.
