Its Thea, just in time to work every angle of her daddy issues!
Worse, the tests all went through public labs, so the news will get out.
It seems as though Chase is trying to finish what dear old dad started.
Thea wants Coffman to spill what he knows about Claybourne, but Coffman argues attorney-client privilege.
When the team arrives at the chemicals location, they find Sampson and company mid-heist.
Of course, Thea watched the video on the jump drive.
The video is Queen Construction security footage that shows Robert arguing with Goodwin.
They struggle, and Goodwin falls into a vat of concrete.
However, the chemical degrades quickly and can therefore be tracked.
Maybe its time to stop living for your father and start living for yourself, she suggests.
Then the computer beeps with the location of the chemical: Robert Queen Applied Sciences Center.
When the team suits up and rolls out this time, Olivers back in the green hood!
Felicity has a way with words, he tells John and Curtis.
Oliver tells the rest of the team to go on without him and stays to fight his nemesis.
And then Oliver drops a truth bomb.
Oliver declines and takes him into custody instead.
Yeah, I get it.
Oliver doesnt want to feed his monster, and arresting Chase is the moral decision.
Buuuuut isnt this the one time when a tiny little murder may be the better choice?
Oliver gives Thea the video that Robert made for her.
Thea plays the video and watches Robert tell her that he loves her and is proud of her.
When Oliver comes in at the tail end, she says simply, I miss him.
He agrees that he misses them both, every day.
Then Oliver takes his own advice and gives a press conference confirming that the allegations against Robert are true.
In a nice little bit of camera work, Olivers face is reflected over his own in the glass.
When they land, Olivers startled to discover that Deathstrokes black-and-orange mask has washed ashore.
What are the odds?
Seriously, that seems highly unlikely, after all this time, that the mask happens to be theretoday.
You gotta love thatpilot Easter egg!
They tell each otherprochnost, and Anatoly promises theyll always be brothers as he takes his leave.
Awww, this is extra sad, knowing how theyparted in the present.
Not so alone after all, huh, buddy?
Just as he passes out, he sees Kovar, scarred but alive.
Our favorite blond Russian tells Oliver hes going to miss his boat home.
Gotta say, I did not expect Kovar to turn up on the island.
Arent you eager to see how Oliver handles one more complication before he finds his way home?
