[Arrow Cave]
Marianne and Barry sit together on the stairs and Marianne looks down at their hands as they held hands. She couldn't believe that Oliver only acted like a nice guy. Marianne lays her head on Barry's shoulder and he kisses her forehead. Everyone was being completely silent in the Cave. Lyla looks over at them then at Oliver.
"Is everything okay with you and Speedy?" Lyla asks Oliver.
"Roy? Yeah, we are fine." Oliver says.
"I meant the other speedy. The one from Central." Lyla says. Oliver looks over at Barry and Marianne.
"Oh, we had a... difference of opinion about the way the world works." Oliver says.
"Yep." Lyla says, "I know what that's like."
"Well, sometimes they don't see it." Oliver says.
"There are people in the world who deal only in extremes—" Lyla says.
"And it would be naïve to think that anything less than extreme measures will stop them." Oliver says.
"Sometimes bravery isn't enough. Sometimes the world requires us to be bold." Lyla says.
"Whatever the personal cost." Oliver says.
"How did they get their odd abilities?" Lyla asks and Oliver looks at Barry and Marianne.
"They were hit by lightning and survived." Oliver says and Lyla nods with a surprised look on her face.
"I got him!" Felicity says.
"He's in a warehouse at the corner of Infantino and Adams." Felicity says.
"Is that—" Lyla asks looking at the screen.
"ARGUS spy satellite? Yeah. Maybe." Felicity says, "Thermographic imaging shows ten bodies inside."
"Harkness knows we're coming." Diggle says.
"I can track the cell phone's position with this." Cisco says.
"Cisco, you're with Diggle and Roy." Oliver says. Barry and Marianne jump up and walk over.
"I'll race you there." Barry says to Oliver who nods.
"Marianne, why don't you stay here, if it ends up being a trap Caitlyn, Lyla and Felicity will need some muscle." Oliver says.
"You expect it to be a trap?" Barry asks.
"It could be anything." Oliver tells them and Marianne nods. Suddenly, all the guys including Cisco glow. Barry smiles as he kisses Marianne's cheek. She smiles at him.
"So this is what Marianne's force field feels like." Cisco says, "Cool." The guys all leave and Marianne goes to a high perch while Felicity sighs.
"You're acting like a cat." Felicity says.
"Eh, maybe a little bit." Marianne says. Marianne listens to the comms.
"You okay?" Cisco asks.
"My daughter's mother tried to detonate a bomb in a man's head and now he's trying to kill her." Diggle says.
"So that would be a no." Cisco says.
"Look, you don't know me that well. But I'm the type of guy who's only thought about one thing – how do I keep people I love safe?" Diggle asks.
