Felicity: A Fern. It thrives on the light. I thought since 你 were living here now, the place could do with a little sprucing.
Oliver: I let 你 buy me a bed.
Felicity: 你 were sleeping on the floor.
Felicity: I'm going to head out, too. I have to pull an early shift at work today, which may 或者 may not be the most depressing thing I've ever said.
Oliver: But we're still on for tomorrow night?
Felicity: Absolutely. I am going to turn 你 into corporate master of the universe. Those board members are going to be begging to sell 皇后乐队 Consolidated back to 你 and your backers.
Oliver: Congratulations, John. And not just on the baby. 你 and Lyla are happy.
John: Well, 你 know, 你 should try it some time.
Oliver: Last girlfriend, she's in the League of Assassins. My girlfriend before that, she shot my girlfriend before that. I'm not... not exactly a catch at the moment.
John: Maybe Felicity will change all that.
Oliver: It's... It's not the right time.
John: Things are as good now as they ever will be, Oliver. And 你 爱情 her. 你 even told her so.
Oliver: I was trying to fool Slade.
John: Yes. Except now the only person you're fooling is yourself. Thanks again.
Oliver: Hey, hey! How was work?
Felicity: "It" is not work. It is a soul crushing exercise in misery that offers health and dental. Suffice it to say, I am highly motivated to help convince the board to sell 你 back the company. Unfortunately, 你 don't really have the qualifications to run 皇后乐队 Consolidated, but what 你 do have is passion. 你 care about the company and the people that work there. That's what 你 have to get across to them. 你 got to speak from the heart.
Oliver: Felicity... Would 你 like to go out to 晚餐 with me?
Felicity: I'm being serious here, Oliver.
Oliver: So am I.
Felicity: I don't want read... too much into this, but are 你 asking me out on a date? Like an actual date? Like a... date-date?
Oliver: Su-- I mean, implication being with 晚餐 that you...
Felicity: Usually I'm the one talking in sentence fragments.
Oliver: Would like to go to 晚餐 with me?
Felicity: Yes.
Oliver: Queen, party of two.
Felicity: Hi.
Oliver: Hi.
Felicity: Hi.
Felicity: What?
Oliver: Nothing. I'm just--
Felicity: Nervous?
Oliver: Yeah.
Felicity: Line forms behind me.
Oliver: Scotch. Neat.
Felicity: Just the water for me, thanks.
Oliver: Are you-- Are 你 sure? The booze might sort of help with the whole--
Felicity: The alcohol is not going to mix well with the three benzos I took.
Oliver: Am I being crazy? I mean, what do we have to be nervous about?
Felicity: Well, we've already exhausted every topic that one would normally talk about on a first 日期 and a 秒 日期 and a third date, and every date, actually, and I've already seen 你 shirtless. Multiple times. Shirtless, all the time.
Felicity: Thank you.
Oliver: Thank you.
Oliver: There are still a few things that 你 don't know about me.
Felicity: Please. name one.
Oliver: The five years that I was away... I wasn't always on Lian Yu.
Felicity: I thought so. Where were you?
Oliver: Hong Kong... for one. And I have been thinking a lot recently about... My time there. The choices that I had to make.
Felicity: Those years sound like they were full of a whole lot of suck.
Oliver: I'm sorry. I'm just a little out of my element. The entire time that I was gone, I could never... completely trust someone. And when that goes on for so long, 你 stop... seeing people for people. 你 see... threats. 或者 targets. And when I decided to come home, I... I just didn't know how to turn that part of me off. Then I walked into your office. 你 were the first person that I could see as a... a person. There was just something about you.
Felicity: Oh, yeah, I was chewing on a pen.
Oliver: It was red. Do 你 remember when I told 你 that because of what we do, I didn't think that I could be with someone that I... that I could really care about?
Felicity: Yeah, I remember.
Oliver: So maybe I was wrong.
Felicity: Oliver, are you--
Oliver: We need to talk.
Felicity: I don't want to talk. Which for me, I know, is a little unprecedented. But... As soon as we talk, it's over.
Oliver: I'm so sorry. I thought that I could be me and The Arrow... But I can't. Not now. Maybe not ever.
Felicity: Then say never. Stop... Dangling maybes. Say it's never going to work out between us. Say 你 never loved me, say you--
Oliver: Felicity... Don't ask me to say that I don't 爱情 you.
Felicity: I told 你 as soon as we talked... It would be over.
