The show starts out with Oliver and Digg (David Ramsey) trying to find where Helena is because she has killed another member of her fathers team- the lawyer. While Digg is working out how to find her, Oliver heads home to find her sitting on his couch talking to Thea. She tells Oliver that she needs his help in finding her fathers safe house, that it will be her only chance of getting to him before he is put into witness protection and off the grid forever. He tells her no but she warns him that he has family that she can get to now.
Oliver and Tommy have that weird conversations about how Oliver is the hood and Tommy can't believe he could keep a secret like this. Not only that but Oliver is a murder and Tommy can no longer trust him.
We get our flashback to the island at this point. Oliver and Slade (Manu Bennett) talk about how they are going to get to a missile launcher that they feel is going to kill millions of people.
Laurel and her father talk about the conversation they had with her mother about Laurels sister still being a live. He isn't happy about it but Laurel tries convince him to take a look at everything her mother has collected. Eventually he tells her yes and to let her mother know he isn't making any promises.
The club opening goes off pretty well with the exception of Helena getting to Tommy. She uses Tommy as her leverage to get Oliver to help her track down her father. He finally agrees to help her if she lets Tommy go.
Oliver and Digg talk about how they are going to work the situation with Helena, this is where we get the best tag line of the night. Oliver asks what he should do and Digg lets him know that he thinks Oliver would have killed her by now if she looked like him instead of the T-mobile girl. When all three of them are talking, Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) shows up, Oliver tells her to leave (for her own safety so Helena can't use her too; I am guessing). Oliver finds out that they are moving Helena's father for hearing, only thing is they are using two vans- one with him and one as decoy.
We then get our next flashback to the island. Oliver uses Slade as an intruder to draw the attention of the other men and then Slade kills them all. As they are setting up to explode the launcher, Oliver decides to take the circuit board to the launcher. Slade loves this idea and calls it leverage. Oliver will then try to use this leverage as a way to get off the island.
Oliver helps Helena track her father, each splitting and taking a van. Oliver's van is empty. He leaves to find Helena since he thinks her father is in that van. Helena's van is filled with cops and she is arrested before Oliver gets back to her. As Helena is being interrogated by Lance and Hall, Oliver causing a gas and smoke seen in the police station to break her out. He gives her a plane ticket to Rome and a passport to get her out of his city.
Oliver then heads to McKennas apartment and they have a conversation. They also sleep together for the first time. As that is happening, Felicity tries to call Oliver and let him know she doesn't think Helena left town yet because a store just reported a break in and a missing crossbow. As she turns around to end the phone call she see Helena standing there.
Oliver rushes to her and cuts he loose from the ties Helena put her in. Helena had Felicity hack into the FBI data base to get the location of the safe house of her father. Of course that is where Helena heads and Oliver tries to play catch up. Oliver and Helena have a face off and as he is about to kill her, McKenna shows up and doesn't wait for backup so she is all alone. As Oliver lowers his bow on McKenna's command, Helena grabs her gun and shot McKenna and runs away. Oliver leave McKenna unconscious and later meets her at the hospital. McKenna almost dies due to a shattered femur that will take a year to heal. She lefts Oliver know she will be moving to live with her sister- this causing them to break up. Oliver doesn't like the idea but tells her "its what ever you need" and leaves it at that.
Tommy and Oliver have another conversation about how Oliver is the hood. From this conversation we see that although the tension that boys will make it through and remain friends.
Other story lines from the episode; we start to see some friction between Tommy and Laurel because he isn't telling her what is going on. A small love connection starting between Thea and Roy (Colton Haynes) and Detective Lance deciding that he will help Laurel's mother Dinah look into the information about her sister Sara.
