Past. Laurel asks about the boy Sara is texting, but Sara turns the tables and asks Laurel about Oliver. Clueless Laurel gushes, she thinks that everything is going fine, more than fine. Says that they're looking for an apartment, and they'll get engaged and one day she'll be Mrs. Queen. But Sara cautions her, and Laurel jumps to the conclusion that Sara isn't being supportive rather than her trying to save her from heart ache.
Laurel's mother watches over her, when the League come and kidnap her, but Arrow and Black Canary are suited up and ready. Nyssa fires off her own Arrows, as the pair closes in and in a moment of weakness when she sees her mother in the van, Nyssa throws her from the van, and they getaway.
Sara apologizes to her father about her mother's kidnapping. She tells him that it is her fault, not because they want her back in the League, but because Nyssa wants her back. Nyssa gives her a deadline to come back to her or mommy gets the axe. Bitter ex girlfriend much?

Sara makes plans to return to Nyssa, but she's got snake venom up her sleeve. Lance is about to make a confession to Laurel about Sara, when Sara calls. She tells him to meet her alone.
Walter introduces Oliver for Moira's announcement. He makes the bold statement that they don't know his mother, like he does. They have no clue what she's capable of....Did Felicity spill the beans? I think so. He finishes the statement with helping Starling City and the crowd goes wild. Before Moira takes the stage, Oliver whispers in her ear that he knows the truth. Ooh Oliver is pissed.
Oliver knows that Sara has taken the venom, and he has Dig activate her locator, they have to stop her from killing Nyssa for fear what Ras will do to them in retaliation if she kills his daughter.

Sara tells him to get her out of there, as she cries seeing the daughter she thought was dead.Nyssa lets her go, thinking she got her way, but she couldn't be more wrong.

Arrow administers the antidote and brings her back. Sara begs her to stop the killing, and brokenhearted Nyssa releases her. The cops arrive, and Laurel does not look happy too see her sister.
Moira watches her press conference on the tv, when Oliver arrives. Its time fore her to listen. He tells her that he fought for her, stood by her because he wanted to believe in her, and now she's made a liar out of him. He will keep up appearances for Thea and her campaign, but otherwise they are done.
The Lance family welcomes back Sara, all except Laurel. She's bitter, and alcohol soaked, thinking that Sara was just being selfish for staying away. She blames her for everything that went wrong in their lives, she tells Sara that she stole her whole life, and with that I have lost what little respect I had left for Laurel. Can we just kill her off already, so tired of the victim card being played. Way to own your own screw ups. She tells Sara to leave, throws her out, and Sara goes.
Past. Moira pays a visit to the Lance house, and has to break some horrible news, that Robert and Oliver weren't the only ones on the yacht, Sara was too.
Slade isn't happy to hear of Moira's bid for the candidacy. Blood ask what he's suppose to do, but Slade tells him nothing. He plans on handling it himself.
Sara comes to visit Oliver doing a little training. They both got some hard realities, and wonder where to go from there, but it sounds like Sara is home to stay. She and Oliver share a smoking kiss, and strip down.
