Felicity Smoak

"Oh, I'm the Devil now?"

- Felicity to Christopher Chance Felicity Megan Smoak (born 1989) is the daughter of Noah Kuttler and Donna Smoak. Technologically gifted, especially in the field of computer science, Felicity is a member of Team Arrow, former CEO of Palmer Technologies, and the ex-fiancée of Oliver Queen.

Felicity met Oliver while working in the IT department at Queen Consolidated, when he asked her for many favors related to his vigilante activities. She discovered his secret and despite some reservations joined his team, coining the name "Team Arrow", and after many adventures the two fell in love. Following the defeat of Ra's al Ghul, Felicity and Oliver left Star City to begin a new life together, but after five months returned to rejoin Team Arrow and face the threat of Damien Darhk and H.I.V.E.. Felicity was injured in an attack by H.I.V.E. agents and was paraplegic. However, due to a implantable bio-stimulant created by Curtis Holt, she is now able to walk again. She continued to work with Team Arrow, using the code-name Overwatch, until she and Oliver broke up. She was present when her teammate and close friend Laurel Lance, also known as the Black Canary, died.

Early life
Felicity was born on 1989, to Donna Smoak and Noah Kuttler. When she was very young her father abandoned her and her mother. She reportedly lived in Las Vegas with her mother until she went to college.

At a young age, Felicity became interested in computers, claiming to have been building them since she was 7. However, she was always fearful that she would wind up as a cocktail waitress like her mother and worked hard to escape from her circumstances. Due to their differing personalities, Felicity had a strained relationship with her mother. When she was 19, Felicity was ranked 2nd in the National Information Technology competition.

Time at M.I.T.
Felicity went to college leaving for M.I.T. (class of 2009). She had an incident with a stalker in her freshmen year.

During her senior year, Felicity dated fellow computer whiz Cooper Seldon. Both of them were members of a hacktivist group on campus, along with Cooper's roommate Myron Forest, as well as part of a cyber-goth subculture.

Felicity, along with Cooper and Myron, developed a "super virus" which was originally meant for noble actions - digitally defacing criminals, exposing government fraud. At one point, Cooper attempted to use the program to hack into the campus' infrastructure to delete all the student loans. Felicity, shocked by his action, stopped him by pulling the plug. Cooper scolded Felicity telling her you'd only be a "hacker or a hero", though they later made up. Cooper was then arrested by the FBI for his hack attempt and he went to prison. Felicity tried to get him out by confessing she'd written the virus. However, Cooper told her he'd already confessed, taking the fall for her. When Cooper was about to sentenced, he hanged himself to Felicity's devastation. Later on, Felicity dyed her hair blonde, changing her image leaving her hacktivist days behind her, saying "this is the new me."

Felicity graduated from MIT with a master's degree in Cyber Security and Computer Sciences. Later on she moved to Starling City to work at Queen Consolidated.

One night, Felicity entered the CEO's office and stared at the picture of Oliver and said he was cute. Unaware that Oliver himself was hidden nearby and listening talking to herself, she later left and he smiled..

Working at Queen Consolidated
Felicity was busy working in the I.T. Department when Oliver Queen walks in. Upon introducing himself, Felicity accidentally mentioned his father's death, backtracking apologetically and ending up babbling at him, which amused Oliver. To her relief, he ignored her ramblings and gave her a bullet-ridden laptop, claiming that he'd spilled a latte on it, though she clearly did not believe Oliver's cover-story. Felicity retrieved blueprints to the Exchange building, where Walter Steele would be bidding on the Unidac Industries auction. She also learned that the laptop belongs to Walter's competitor Warren Patel, Deadshot's employer.

Walter summoned Felicity up to his office, but she mistakenly believed she was going to be fired. However Walter instead gave her a secret task off-books. Walter explained to her that a valued of 2.6 million dollars had gone missing after one of Moira Queen's transactions. He asked her to find out some of the details of the transaction discreetly. From this, Felicity unearthed that there was no investment, the money in question had been used to set up an offshore limited liability company called Tempest. The organization, with no ties to the government or any other company, including Queen Consolidated, seemingly only existed to facilitate the purchase of a warehouse in 2009 that was located somewhere in Starling City.

Felicity researched Derek Reston for Oliver and John Diggle. Although she clearly disbelieved his excuse for doing so, her research unearthed the fact that Reston had been an employee of his father, which propelled Oliver to reach out and offer Derek a second chance.

Felicity entered Walter's office to speak with him about someone else looking at his wife's financial transactions regarding Tempest. She showed him a picture (the symbol in The List) she managed to find that Walter denies having seen before, and he coldly warned her to stop looking into his wife's affairs, promising to suspend her if she continued (to keep her safe), though Walter later called her back and gave her a seemingly blank copy of The List after he found it in his and Moira's bedroom. After a few hours, Felicity returned to Walter's office with The List and a pair of glasses manufactured by Queen Consolidated's Applied Sciences division that allowed them to see the list of names written in invisible ink.

Felicity called Walter in the middle of dinner to tell him that Doug Miller, head of Queen Consolidated's Applied Sciences division, was on the List. She warned him that Miller may be in danger, prompting Walter to meet with him. Later, while looking at the names she'd copied onto her tablet, Oliver arrived to ask for her help again, claiming that a friend of his is a big archery fan and giving her an arrow to track down where it was delivered. Upon providing him with the information, Oliver praised her and greeted her a merry Christmas before he left, causing Felicity to reveal to him her Jewish heritage.

Oliver asked Felicity to decrypt the information stored on a security fob, claiming that it was part of a scavenger hunt that would award several bottles of 1982 Lafite Rothschild to the winner. Declaring her love of red wine and bring promised one of the bottles, Felicity decrypted the fob and discovered that it contained information regarding several planned heisted similar to the armored-car robberies that had been occurring in the city. Oliver asked her to hold off on warning the police, saying he didn't want to get her in trouble and asking her to send him the information instead. Felicity did so, privately expressing her disappointment in the lack of wine coming her way.

Oliver and John arrived at her office and hand her a syringe and asked her to run a spectro-analysis on what he claims was an energy drink (but was in fact Vertigo). Felicity questioned him on why the energy drink was in a syringe, and then walked away exasperatedly when Oliver told her he ran out of sports bottles. However, she contacted him later that night and asked him to meet her. They went to Big Belly Burger, where Felicity admitted that despite the outrageous stories he'd told her when he asked for her help, she somehow trusted him enough to share the information she had collated. She presented him with the copy of The List in her possession, telling Oliver that it may be the reason why Walter had been abducted.

Felicity left her work at night and gets in her car. She turns around and sees a gunshot-wounded Hood, who reveals himself as none other than Oliver Queen, much to Felicity's shock. Oliver tells her to take him to his father's old foundry and nowhere else, which she does. When Felicity gets to the warehouse, she thoroughly startled Diggle, who had stayed in that night. John Diggle operated on Oliver and manage to stop the bleeding and the effects of the gunshot wound. While Oliver was unconscious, John commented on Felicity's handling of the revelation she has discovered suspecting she knew, to which Felicity states she was already suspicious from the horrible cover stories they have told her for the favors Oliver asked her for. Felicity also learns that the "energy drink" vial given to her was Vertigo, and learned of her partial take-down of the The Count. After learning how much she has helped already, she agrees to help Oliver on a provisional basis until Walter is found.

Oliver hooded up to mark a name off of the List and Felicity locked him in the Arrowcave to point out that he was about to threaten to kill a single father with a ten-year-old son. Oliver ignored her objections, prompting her to quit in the belief that it was a bad idea to get involved with them in the first place. To coax her back on the team, Oliver went after The Dodger, a thief who forced others to steal for him with bomb collars. During their first team meeting at Big Belly Burger, Felicity noticed the attraction between John and his former sister-in-law Carly, which lead to her persuading/daring the guys to go on dates: John with Carly and Oliver with McKenna Hall, mostly for fun, though Oliver's date also had more to do with the intention of planting a bug on McKenna's phone, which would allow them to get information about the Dodger. When Team Hood set up a sting using one of the Queen jewels, the Dodger simply stole the bait himself. Felicity naively confronted him, which lead to him collaring her with a bomb. With Felicity guiding him through the streets via the tracking device they installed in the jewel, Oliver chased after the Dodger while Diggle attempted to disarm the collar. He managed to find and stop the Dodger, retrieving the detonator and freeing Felicity from her collar.

John had begun training Felicity to defend herself in case she was attacked. During their break, Oliver came in, having just killed Guillermo Barrera, an assassin-for-hire. He gave Barrera's phone to Felicity, hoping she could figure out who the target was so they could stop any another assassin who came to finish the job. Felicity managed to get the last number Barrera called, which was a front for the Chinese Triad, a restaurant called the Jade Dragon Restaurant. While Oliver went to check it out, Felicity continued to decrypt the phone, eventually cracking through its firewalls and discovering that Barrera's target was Malcolm Merlyn. Later, after Malcolm was saved, Oliver informed them that the assassin had been Floyd Lawton, upsetting John. Felicity learned from Oliver that Lawton was the man who killed John's brother.

Felicity accidentally interrupted a meeting between Oliver Queen, John, and Helena, offering to hack into the FBI database. Oliver sharply told her to leave, trying to prevent Felicity from becoming involved with Helena's vendetta. This failed, as Helena later broke into the I.T. Department of Queen Consolidated and threatened Felicity into hacking the FBI to find the location of her father's safehouse. Thankfully, Felicity had been in the middle of a call to Oliver's voicemail when Helena showed up, so he immediately proceeded to Queen Consolidated when he heard it. He found Felicity tied up under her desk, quickly freeing her. Felicity explained what happened and apologized for giving Helena the information, though the attack persuaded Oliver to go after Helena with no mercy.

Felicity was in the Arrowcave watching the news regarding John Nickel, one of the people on The List. With the DA's office deciding not to indict Nickel for the fire that occurred the night before, Oliver decided to go after Nickel, to which Felicity gave "100%" support. However, someone else got to Nickel first and broadcasted his interrogation of Nickel on his website. Felicity sent the broadcast link to Oliver and Diggle, and upon seeing where the interrogation was headed, Oliver demanded that Felicity track the signal it was coming from, only for Nickel to get shot on video. John contacted his friends in the NSA and discovers that the person who owned the website is a cyber-crusader called The Savior. Soon after, another video was linked onto The Savior's website, showing that Assistant District Attorney Gavin Carnahan had been kidnapped and strung up like Nickel had. Using information given away in the video, Felicity discovered that The Savior is Joseph Falk, a former employee of the Department of Transportation whose wife was killed in the Glades. Given ten minutes to find Carnahan, Felicity tried to find the location where the ADA was being held, but cannot pinpoint where the transmission was being sent from. She directed Oliver to two false locations, and as a frustrated Oliver told her to find them faster, The Savior shot Carnahan, shocking and upsetting Felicity. Later, when Oliver returned, she told him she told John to leave in her loud voice and expressed guilt over her failure to find Carnahan. Oliver tried and failed to comfort her by telling them that, in their line of business, they sometimes lose a battle. Felicity then cited his policy on staying single as a good thing, saying she wouldn't know how to talk about the day she'd just had if she'd been dating someone. Her comment caused Oliver to rethink how his personal policy of isolationism is affecting him and those around him. Later, he told Felicity that if she ever needed to tell someone about her day, she could talk to him.

Felicity arrived in the Arrowcave to find both Oliver and Diggle already present. Briefly teasing them about their fondness for the hideout, she showed them the news footage announcing The Count's escape from the mental institution, upsetting Oliver, who had already gone to see the Count because of the death of one of his club-goers and had discounted him as a suspect for being insane. Later, after John successfully dropped off tagged money by purchasing Vertigo, Felicity activated the tracker slipped into the bills and, at John's teasing of her throwing a pill party, admitted that the only encounter she had with drugs was her accidental ingestion of a pot brownie during her freshman year, which had also triggered her nut allergy, making it an unhappy experience. John then brought them to the topic of Floyd Lawton, whom Felicity has been tracking without Oliver's knowledge at John's request. She gave him the information she had, then tried to convince John to let Oliver in on the secret, but John refused and left.

Some time later, Oliver and Felicity hear a report about a Vertigo-related hostage-taking incident in Starling City Aquarium. As Oliver mixes the herbs he had to use on the junkie, Felicity wonders why he wasn't going to kill the man instead. Oliver explains to her that his sister had been in the same place, and that if she hadn't deserved to be killed for taking Vertigo, then neither did this man. When he laments that he should've killed The Count the first time around, Felicity tries to talk him out of it, only for him to point out that his choice had been wrong since the city was once again in danger due to Vertigo, and that he would kill The Count once and for all when he gets the chance. Oliver leaves after instructing Felicity to call John for backup. Later, Felicity walks into the Arrowcave to find that Oliver's things had been replaced with the club's inventory and furniture, which Oliver claims is a long story. Directed to look at the autopsy reports of the Vertigo victims, Felicity discovers that one of the junkies had died due to his allergy to chlorpromazine. Oliver promptly leaves Felicity in the Arrowcave to recheck the mental institution, realizing that the amount of anti-psychotic drugs needed to manufacture the new Vertigo could only be found in a mental institution.

While Oliver and Diggle were working out and talking about Floyd Lawton, Felicity refuted Oliver's claim that Lawton is on another continent, explaining that she'd decrypted A.R.G.U.S.'s communication logs and ending up admitting that she dyed her hair blonde, much to Oliver's amusement and John's impatience. Felicity told them that Lawton had returned to Starling City thanks to a sting setup by John's friend, A.R.G.U.S. agent Lyla Michaels. Felicity pulled the details of the sting for John and Oliver to study and create a counter-plan for, and later monitored the movements of Edward Rasmus, who hired an assassin to kill Laurel Lance's clients, orphaning a young boy who was also targeted for having seen the assassin's face. Just before the time for A.R.G.U.S. 's sting, Felicity got a notification that Rasmus was on a flight manifest heading out of Starling City, forcing Oliver to choose whether to support John or help Laurel's case. He chose Laurel, and when he returned, Felicity was tending to John's head wound. Upset that Oliver chose Laurel yet again, John told him that his absence caused the deaths of four A.R.G.U.S. agents, and though Felicity doesn't say anything on the subject, it was clear that she agreed with John.

Oliver brought Felicity the laptop of Harold Backman, who laundered money for the white-collar criminals of Starling City, and asked her to return money to their rightful owners before they turned the laptop over to the IRS. Felicity tried to convince Oliver to apologize to Diggle for breaking his promise to him, but Oliver stubbornly refused. After a while, Felicity walked into the club to find Oliver, only to find him conversing with Laurel Lance, whom she now met for the first time. Excusing herself as someone who is fixing the club's router, Felicity urged Oliver to come with her so she could show him what she'd found, explaining that she hacked Cayman Fidelity and compiled a list of deposits made in the last year and had discovered a payment made on the same day of Walter Steele's disappearance. She managed to track it to Dominic Alonzo, who ran the biggest underground casino in the city. With Oliver hesitating to both storm Alonzo's place due to the unknown amount of security guarding the place and contact John for help, Felicity convinced him to let her get caught counting cards in order to place a bug on Alonzo's computer. Despite his reservations, Oliver bent to Felicity's tenacity, but insisted that he plan the mission, which Felicity agreed to.

Before she went, Felicity paid a visit to John to try and convince him to help them save Walter, but to no avail. Sometime later, she and Oliver arrived outside Alonzo's casino, where Oliver gave her another chance to back out. When Felicity refused to do so, he assured her that he'd be right outside, and they separated. With Oliver scouting ahead and providing her the password (Snapdragon), Felicity headed in, detailing how many of Alonzo's employees were in sight and also accidentally rambling at him, much to her chagrin. Her plan to get caught counting cards went off without a hitch, and she was brought into Alonzo's office. Introducing herself as Megan, she planted the bug and agreed to never count cards in Alonzo's casino again, only for them to find the earwig that connected her to Oliver. Having lost contact with her, Oliver stormed the casino and, after getting Felicity out of Alonzo's clutches, reverted to his old method of intimidating his target into confessing the information he wanted. The fear of God placed in him, Alonzo told them that he'd heard the gunshot that killed Walter, devastating her and Oliver both.

Felicity returned to the Arrowcave later that night to find Oliver sitting in the dark. Admitting that she'd been doing the same thing, she tried to extend her condolences to Oliver and his family, only for Oliver to tell her that Walter was still alive. He explains that his mother had known who had Walter all along, and he'd followed her straight to Malcolm Merlyn after giving them the news that Walter was found dead. He asked her to pull up Malcolm's phone records to trace the call he made to where Walter was being held, which Felicity discovers was in Blüdhaven. Seeing that the least amount of security is on the roof, Oliver chartered a jump plane to parachute down, and when he recovered Walter, Felicity immediately proceeded to the hospital to see him.

Felicity, Oliver and Diggle are trying to figure out what The Undertaking was and how Moira Queen is involved in it. Oliver decided that it was time he spoke to his mother about it, and when Felicity expressed concern due to what happened the last time he tried that, he told her that he'd be doing it without the hood. When Oliver returned, Felicity was shocked to see the mess his face has become, scolding John and reminding him that he was supposed to pull his punches, indicating that John had told her about the plan Oliver had concocted to make his mother talk. Oliver asked her to research Unidac Industries, to which Felicity reminded him that Queen Consolidated acquired Unidac Industries in the same month they'd met. Discovering that Unidac Industries specialized in seismic infringement, Oliver theorized that Malcolm planned to level the Glades using a device that triggers a man-made earthquake. Upon finding a news article suggesting that the copycat archer was involved, they realized that the Dark Archer was working for Malcolm Merlyn, and that they were tying up loose ends.

When Felicity decided to hack into Merlyn Global to find information about Malcolm's plan, but was stonewalled by the company's firewalls, she expressed that they would have to waltz in to gain access to the company mainframe. Oliver decided to do just that, and Felicity ended up posing as a delivery girl for the Big Belly Burger and sneaked to the twenty-fourth floor with Oliver. While hacking in, Felicity encountered a guard patrolling the floor earlier than scheduled, and since Oliver was detained by Malcolm himself, John was forced to head up to rescue her, forcing her to pretend to be a Tommy Merlyn groupie. Later, she told them that she left a Trojan in the mainframe, thinking it would come in handy in the future. The Trojan later alerted them when Malcolm logged onto his computer, prompting Oliver to face him as a distraction while John went to retrieve the earthquake device. However, Felicity's Trojan backfired on her, as Malcolm moved the devices when he discovered the virus.

Detective Quentin Lance took Felicity into custody for questioning after police technicians find a computer trail linked with the vigilante's activities that traced back to her computer at Queen Consolidated. Felicity was later released when Oliver, as the vigilante, contacted Lance to warn him of the impending attack on the Glades. Before leaving, and without blowing her cover, Felicity explained that she had thought the vigilante was a bad person too, until she realized how much he'd sacrificed for Starling City. She pointed out that it made him more of a hero than Lance gave him credit for. Before Oliver left to confront Merlyn, he told Felicity that he wanted her out of the Glades because of the chance that the Markov Device would go off. She refused, telling him that if he was not leaving, she was not leaving. After stealing data from Merlyn Global, Felicity worked with Lance to disarm the earthquake device threatening the Glades, blowing her cover with Lance and confirming that she was definitely in league with the vigilante, in order to prevent the Undertaking. Though successful in disarming the device, Felicity was stuck in Verdant as the back-up earthquake device was activated and proceeded to destroy the east side of the Glades.

Working with the Arrow
Felicity and John Diggle traveled to Lian Yu in order to find Oliver Queen. In the process, she chartered a rickety airplane that she inevitably jumped out of and eventually stepped on a land mine, which Oliver saved her from by swinging from a tree using a rope arrow. In a bid to cajole him into returning to Starling City, she revealed that his mother's trial was coming up and Queen Consolidated was undergoing a hostile takeover, which meant that she would lose her job if it succeeded, and that his family would lose the source of their income. She and John convinced Oliver to come back, under the condition that he did it as Oliver Queen, and not as The Hood. Later, she, Oliver, and Diggle finally met Isabel Rochev at QC in regards to the company buyout. The meeting was interrupted by The Hoods, who declared that Oliver has failed the city. As Oliver rushed Isabel out, one of The Hoods members pointed a gun at him and Felicity hit him with a statue. Oliver and Felicity escaped through a window, swinging once again via a chain out the window and into another two floors below, escaping The Hoods. After the attack, Felicity confronted Oliver for not even trying to stop the Hoods, and he responded by citing the body count he typically left behind. After Oliver found out that the Hoods kidnapped Thea, she, Oliver, and John went to the upgraded lair. She helped him find out information about the Hoods, why they formed, and their location. She then gave Oliver his new bow. Back at the hideout, after Oliver defeated the Hoods, they talked about a new way and a new name for the Hood, naming himself the Arrow.

Felicity vehemently protests her new job as Oliver's executive assistant despite Oliver's valid excuses. She inevitably stayed on as his EA, even though she disliked her new job. She managed to track where the Chinese Triad stroke next, only for the Arrow to get into an intense fight with Bronze Tiger. Back at the Arrowcave, Felicity called Oliver out on his attitude and told him he was so involved with himself, he didn't realize that Diggle and Carly had broken up, partially because of him. After missing a crucial fundraiser, Oliver becomes vilified by Sebastian Blood, even though he was actually helping the hospital by stopping the Triad from acquiring the next batch of medical supplies being delivered to them. Seemingly to comfort him, Felicity gave Oliver a cup of coffee, stating the word "one" quietly, implying it would be the only time she would get him coffee.

Felicity and Diggle are waiting in the Arrowcave when Oliver arrives, having been nearly caught by the SCPD due to Laurel setting a trap for him. Oliver asked Felicity to keep an eye out on a new vigilante, a blonde woman who seemed like a highly skilled fighter, but they soon re-prioritized to help Officer Quentin Lance with the Dollmaker case. Because of all the times she hacked the SCPD, they've outsource their evidence to a facility that she couldn't hack into from the outside. Oliver and Lance broke into the facility and gave Felicity the connection she needed to retrieve and disseminate the information there, leading to a break in the case. It turned out that all the women used a special type of lotion called Mermaiden, and her skills left Lance mystified at the thought that she can discover all of that with what little information she'd been given in less than a minute, prompting Oliver to smile under the cover of his hood. She then volunteered to be bait for the Dollmaker, going to each boutique and buying Mermaiden. Quentin pointed out that Felicity must trust The Arrow a lot to be bait for a serial killer. Creeped out, and scared, she vowed to never be bait again, right before she was attacked by the Dollmaker. The Arrow and Quentin scared him off, but not before Felicity was injured. When she'd recovered, she reported the kidnapping of Officer Quentin and Laurel to Oliver, and manages to provide him with their location.

Felicity was forced to make excuses for Oliver's lateness at a Queen Consolidated investment party to Isabel Rochev. When asked where he was, Felicity opened her communications link to him, only to be startled at the sound of gunfire. Oliver finally arrived, having some blood on his face that Isabel noticed and that Felicity tried to excuse away. While watching Oliver and Laurel spoke during the party, Felicity realized that Laurel had also been in the same two places where the masked blonde vigilante had helped Oliver out, leading her to theorize that it was Laurel, not Oliver, whom the woman was following. This revelation allowed Oliver to trap the woman and learn her real identity: Sara Lance. Back at the Arrowcave, Oliver told Felicity and Diggle that Sara hadn't died on the island, prompting Felicity to question why he hadn't told the Lances about her survival. An upset Oliver explained to her that because nothing good happened on the island, they were better off not knowing. Later, they set aside the Sara issue to locate the Mayor's hideout to take back stolen weapons crate of military-grade armament. Felicity later "borrowed" the FBI facial recognition software to identify the Mayor's real identity, Xavier Reed, and figured out that not only was Reed's foster brother serving in the army, he was also about to hand over assault rifles and grenade launchers to Reed, prompting Oliver to head out and successfully stop it from happening.

Felicity finally met the elusive Sara Lance and expressed her happiness regarding Sara's survival despite not having known her before the shipwreck. This amused Sara, who called Felicity "cute". Oliver told them that he and Sara were attacked inside Queen Mansion by a man dressed like the Dark Archer/Malcolm Merlyn, then asked Felicity to analyze a bag of dirt the man had tracked in. Hearing their lack of knowledge on the matter, Sara revealed that the man was named Al-Owal, a member of the League of Assassins sent to bring her back with him, as she too was a member. She admitted to murdering a man who was inevitably found by his young children and used it as an example as to why she kept her survival a secret from her family. Later, when Sara apologized to Felicity for upsetting her with her confession, Felicity compared Sara's regret for joining the League of Assassins to her regret of joining a gym membership. Sara thanked Felicity for not making her feel like "what she was" and expressed how lucky Oliver was for having both her and John as friends. When Oliver arrived, Felicity reported that she'd found pesticide on the dirt he gave her, giving them Al-Owal's possible hideout. After Sara and Oliver failed to deter him, Felicity volunteered to warn Officer Lance about the possible threat on his life. She confronted Lance at his apartment after his shift, and Lance was seemingly disgruntled by not only her request but her vague explanation. Lance refused to listen to her, believing that he wasn't in any real danger. Felicity returned to the Arrowcave, announcing her failure, forcing Sara to reveal herself to her father.

Felicity appears when Isabel Rochev was reprimanding Oliver for his lack of interest in the company. Felicity apologized for interrupting, reminding Oliver about his "evening plans". She told him that "Mr. Harper" has information for him while a disbelieving and irritated Isabel listens. Oliver then told Felicity that she needed to work on her poor excuses. She later went with Oliver, Diggle, and unexpectedly Isabel to Moscow to rescue Lyla from prison. Unbeknownst to her, Isabel believed she's sleeping with Oliver because of her abrupt job change and asks Oliver multiple times about it. While in the hotel, Felicity helped orchestrate Diggle's capture and coordinated the rendezvous point for his escape. Later that night, Felicity went to fetch Oliver from his hotel room, Isabel exited his room and told Oliver that "she can take the night off". Felicity, hurt by what Isabel implied, was visibly shocked by what happened. While she, Oliver, and Knyazev stake out the gulag, Felicity shut down the prison's phones, helping Diggle and Lyla break out. After the mission succeeded, Diggle, Lyla, Felicity, Oliver, and Isabel later returned to Starling City in Oliver's private jet. Despite saying "what happens in Russia stays in Russia" while in Moscow, she confronted Oliver about Isabel at Queen Consolidated, suggesting that she had feelings for him. Oliver replied that it didn't mean anything and that, due to his vigilantism, he believed that "it's better to not be with someone that I could really care about", implying that he might have romantic feelings for her as well, but wouldn't act on them.

Felicity took Diggle to the Arrowcave when he passed out in the office and immediately called Oliver. When Oliver arrived, Felicity told him that Diggle had somehow been injected with Vertigo, and that his condition was the effects of severe withdrawal. The Count, who had broken out of prison, took credit for the outbreak of Vertigo withdrawal among regular people. As Oliver was occupied with his mother's on-going trial, Felicity worked with an ill Diggle to try to figure out why a random mix of people were infected. After plotting out the employment of each infected person, she found a path and linked that path to the free flu shots that were given around Starling City. Since Diggle was out of commission and Oliver was at the trial, Felicity decided to check out the immunization truck on her own, and was subsequently abducted by Count Vertigo. When Count Vertigo found her Queen Consolidated ID badge in her coat, he managed to figure out the Arrow's true identity and called Oliver off of her phone, using Felicity as bait to lure Oliver to his office. Despite Felicity telling him not to kill Count Vertigo because of her, Oliver shot him in the chest three times, killing him anyway when Count Vertigo moved to inject her with a high concentration of Vertigo. Later, Felicity thanked Oliver for saving her life, then apologized for being the reason he had to choose to kill someone again. Oliver told her that because she was about to be hurt, "there was no choice to make".

Felicity welcomed Moira Queen back when she paid a visit to the office, laughing at the joke Moira made, but then awkwardly mentioning Moira's stint in prison, making Moira leave the room immediately. Minutes later, she and John fetched Oliver to tell him about a break-in at one of QC's Applied Sciences facilities, where a centrifuge had been stolen. They proceeded to the site, meeting Officer Quentin, Kelton the Crime Scene Unit technician, and Barry Allen, who introduced himself as a C.S.I. from the Central City Police Department. After Barry extrapolated a logical, but unbelievable explanation about the thief being super-powered by merely looking at the crime scene, Felicity realized that he knew more about the case than they did and enlisted his help, telling Barry that Oliver wanted to keep the investigation in-house. During the course of their time together, Felicity exhibited signs of being attracted to Barry, though she was clearly uncomfortable when he mentioned his admiration of The Arrow and his theory that the vigilante had partners, particularly one versed in computer science. Barry seemed to reciprocate her affections, and though he was briefly surprised to learn that Felicity spent her nights with Oliver, he was reassured when she denies liking Oliver romantically and then asks him to accompany her to the party Oliver was throwing to celebrate his mother's acquittal. She became angry at Oliver when he revealed that Barry had been misleading them, only for Barry to admit that he was investigating their case due to its possible relation to the events that led to his mother's death and the wrongful incarceration of his father. Oliver made it up to her by re-inviting Barry to the party, where they share a dance. Later, after Barry received a phone call from his boss demanding he return to Central City at once, Felicity was visibly disappointed that they had to say goodbye. She proceeded to the Arrowcave to direct Oliver to the thief's next target, only for the thief to overpower Oliver and knock him into a pile of unknown drugs. Felicity and John come to Oliver's rescue, and when she was unable to discover what Oliver was poisoned with, John decided to call 911, despite Oliver being in full vigilante garb. Felicity stopped him from making the call, instead asking John to abduct Barry at the train station to ask for his help in saving Oliver.

Felicity, John, and Barry worked together to save Oliver, with Barry using a small dose of rat poison to thin Oliver's coagulating blood. When Oliver woke up, he was upset to discover that Felicity had exposed his secret to an outsider without his consent, leading to their first fight which ended only when Barry pointed out that Oliver was being a jerk to her. While Oliver was away, Felicity ran a print that Barry lifted from Oliver's neck through the computer and finds a match, identifying Oliver's physically-enhanced attacker as Cyrus Gold. As she ran Gold's picture through facial recognition software, targeting traffic cameras to track Gold's location, Barry smugly reminded her about his theory of the vigilante working with partners, and then surprises them by mentioning that he'd kept count of the high-profile cases they'd been involved with. Oliver soon arrived to question Barry about the side-effects of the rat poison, which included hallucinations and excessive sweating. Felicity correctly realized that Oliver had been hallucinating and asked what he was seeing, only to be visibly jealous when he mentions Shado, another girl he met on the island. Minutes later, Felicity announced that she had found Gold's location and directed John and Oliver to a motel Gold might be staying in. When Gold managed to hurt John, with him and Oliver narrowly escaping, Oliver told Felicity to call for backup, and she reached out to Officer Quentin.

Later that day, Barry implied that despite her denying it, he understood why Felicity would like Oliver. Their conversation eventually turned to their holiday plans, though it was interrupted when Oliver arrived and asked for some privacy, prompting her and Barry to retreat to the Big Belly Burger to get some takeout. They returned with John to find the Arrowcave in disarray, though Oliver denied that they'd had a break-in and didn't explain what happened. After Barry told Oliver that his hallucinations weren't being caused by any drugs in his system, Felicity found a police report detailing Quentin's injuries and the death of several officers, including Quentin's former partner and friend, Lucas Hilton. Oliver left to speak with Quentin and returned with a key that Felicity tracked back to a place in the Glades. When Oliver prepared to face Gold once more, Felicity tried to stop him and failed, so she asked him to promise that he'd come back, but he didn't. To John and Felicity's relief, Oliver returned mostly intact, and she rushed to hug him while he assured them that he'd stopped hallucinating, though he also warned them that they had to keep an eye on Roy Harper, who'd been injected with the same serum that gave Gold his enhanced abilities. When he asked after Barry, Felicity told him that Barry had returned to Central City, just as Barry gives her a call. He told her that he arrived too late to attend the activation of the S.T.A.R. Labs particle accelerator, but that if she ever decided to go on a date with someone who wasn't Oliver Queen (marking the first time her romantic feelings for Oliver is blatantly mentioned), then that someone wouldn't be late for their date. Barry mentioned that he'd left a present for Oliver: a mask. Felicity helped Oliver put it on, becoming the first person to see him as The Arrow. When asked how he looked, Felicity told him that he looked like a hero.

Felicity had gone to Central City to stay with Barry Allen, who was in a coma. After she returned, Officer Lance asked the Arrow if his "blonde friend" could hack the cell phone records of his fellow policemen to see which one tipped off Cyrus Gold. It was later implied but not directly stated by Officer Lance that Felicity did, indeed, trace the cell phone records of the policemen at the precinct and relayed them to Lance. As Oliver replied, another bomb went off. He instantly contacted Felicity and she tried to help him find the bomber, Shrapnel. Felicity tracked him while Oliver followed in a high-speed chase. She lost Shrapnel's signal and he ended up escaping. Oliver blamed her, claiming she was distracted by Barry. When she angrily left, Diggle told Oliver "I think you didn't have a problem with Felicity's performance until she met Barry Allen". Their argument was still unresolved, a very concerned Felicity helped Oliver escape one of Shrapnel's booby traps by identifying the trap's power source. Afterwards, Oliver apologized to Felicity, admitting he relied on her more than he thought he did, and acknowledged her as his partner.

Felicity conducted a polygraph test for the Arrow via Bluetooth, determining that the man Oliver was interrogating knew nothing about Brother Blood. At Queen Consolidated, Felicity, Diggle, and Oliver discussed Laurel's claim that Sebastian Blood was not who he said he was. While Diggle was skeptical of Laurel's theory and blamed it on paranoia, Felicity seemed to think that it was credible and decided to look into it. Felicity researched Blood's past, but was unable to find any electronically-stored information, all of it being held in a file at the City Archives. She assisted the Arrow in the Archives, maneuvering him through the building and helping him and Laurel avoid the police when they eventually come.

Felicity discovered that Ben Turner has escaped from Iron Heights Prison. She explained that since the earthquake, more prisoners had escaped and the prison officials had been working overtime to conceal any breakouts, saying "Iron Heights was better at keeping secrets then they were at keeping prisoners". Felicity later interrupted one of Roy Harper's training sessions, informing the Arrow that Turner had just suspiciously stolen blueprints to Malcolm Merlyn's house. When Oliver returned from the mansion, she fingerprinted a watch that he had taken from one of the mercenaries. After scanning several databases, she discovered that the thief in question worked for Milo Armitage, and was ultimately able to track him down based on a shipment that was based at the Starling City docks. When she left the Arrowcave and went upstairs to Verdant to deliver this news to Oliver, Felicity was drunkenly harassed at the bar of the club by a highly intoxicated Laurel Lance. After Oliver's identity was revealed to Roy, Oliver brought him to the Arrowcave. Felicity met Roy for presumably the first time, and when he asked if their group has a name, she called themselves "Team Arrow".

Felicity discovered Thea's true parentage after questioning Walter about a wire transfer from a flagged account. She asked Walter to talk to Moira about it, but later revealed that she knew he was lying when he said he would. On her own time, she stopped by the Queen Mansion and informed Moira of her discovery. Taking advantage of Felicity's feelings for Oliver, Moira manipulated her into keeping her secret, saying that even though Oliver would hate her, he would also blame Felicity for telling him. Moira told Felicity that "we all have to keep secrets". This ordeal lead her to become distracted and withdrawn, something Oliver noticed. Felicity also helped Sara by finding out that the Tibetan Pit Viper venom used for suicidal purposes by a member of the League of Assassins was acquired from the local zoo. She tracked down a license plate that may be connected to Nyssa. At Moira's campaign event, Oliver asked what had been bothering Felicity once and for all. Unable to keep this secret from him, Felicity told Oliver that she didn't talk a lot about her family because her father abandoned her and her mother, saying "I barely remember him. But I do remember how much it hurt when he left." She explained to Oliver her fear of losing him. He assured her he wouldn't, which lead her to tell him the truth about Thea.

Felicity began to feel left out as Sara, Oliver, and Diggle traded stories of their battle scars. Felicity took her frustration out on a training dummy, only for Sara to give her some pointers on self-defense. When William Tockman, AKA the Clock King, stole the Skeleton Key, a device that could access any computer system, Felicity tried to stop him, but he managed to divert their attention to stopping a near-collision with a bus and a train. Felicity soon felt insecure and left out again when Sara revealed her aptitude for chemistry and genetics. Together, Felicity and Sara were able to identify the Clock King's disease and manage to put a name on him. Felicity revealed that Tockman's sister was suffering from Cystic Fibrosis and that all the money he stole went to her. Based on his sister's address, the Arrow and the Canary tracked him down. However, this proved to be a trap, as Tockman waited for Felicity to hack the device he had planted and was able to backtrack and trace the computer system to the Arrowcave. Using the Skeleton Key, Tockman fried the Arrowcave's computer system. As she assessed the damage, Oliver told Felicity to call Walter Steele and use some of Oliver's money as bait. When Oliver and Sara left, Diggle tried to get Felicity to open up about Oliver's relationship with Sara. After Diggle implied that she was feeling insecure because of whatever feelings she had for Oliver, Felicity denied it and explained to Diggle of her uncertainty of herself within the team, feeling extra pressure to take Tockman down. After she put a large amount of Oliver's money into Starling National Bank, Tockman quickly took their bait, and Felicity tried to stop him alone. Oliver, Sara and Diggle managed to find her before the Clock King did, but while Oliver dealt with Tockman's men and Diggle stopped a gas main from exploding, Felicity and Sara found Tockman, only for Felicity to get shot in the shoulder protecting Sara. Using the same virus that fried her systems, Felicity used Tockman's phone to knock him out. Back at the Arrowcave, Sara patched her up, and Felicity seemed pleased that she finally has a scar of her own. It was revealed that Diggle had given her Oxycodone to dull the pain instead of aspirin, as she believed. Oliver confronted her and asked if she was feeling "left out" and a drugged-up Felicity admitted that she had gotten used being Oliver's "girl-girl". Oliver reassured her that she would always be his girl.

When Slade Wilson was in the Queen Mansion on an art tour, Oliver quietly called Felicity. Bringing back Big Belly Burger for the rest of Team Arrow in the Arrowcave, she answered the call. After there was no response, she believed Oliver butt-dialed her and put the call on speakerphone. Sara heard Slade's voice and realized that Oliver and his family were in immanent danger. When the rest of the team left, Felicity used thermal imaging software to track movement Thea, Moira, and Slade while on their tour of the house, therefore directing Diggle, Sara, and Roy on their mission throughout the Queen Mansion.

The outside of Felicity's townhouse was first seen when Diggle began keeping watch on her due to the looming threat of Slade. She came to his car in her pajamas, gave him a mug of hot chocolate, and convinced Diggle to leave. She told him that if Slade wanted to kill her, he could, and there was nothing Diggle could do to stop him. Felicity was later seen in the Arrowcave, where she explained to Oliver that she was tracking any type of automotive movement in Starling City based on car titles and rental agreements, looking for anything under the name of Slade Wilson. While in conversation with Oliver, she alerted him that an robbery was being held at Fifth and Giffen, saying "We're still in the crime-fighting business, right?" Felicity was also able to locate Slade Wilson's headquarters using information supplied to Oliver by the Bratva (Alexi Leonov). When Oliver planned on meeting Slade at his headquarters, Felicity futilely tried to discourage him, emphasizing that Oliver was no match for Slade and that he'd be killed if he went.

Felicity stated that she had been "keeping tabs" on Helena Bertinelli's global activity for the last year. She traced a stolen car to Michael Staton, the late fiancé of Helena, hacking the GPS and discovering that she was headed for Starling City. After the Arrow, the Canary, and Roy are unsuccessful in finding Helena, Felicity found out that a "frat boy" gave her a ride into town and attempts to track Helena down. Throughout the event, both Felicity and Diggle were very verbally expressive of their feelings for Helena, constantly referring to her as "Oliver's psycho ex-girlfriend".

Felicity gave Oliver a month's worth of phone messages and reminded him about Queen Consolidated's annual board meeting and told him that there was no way the CEO could avoid attending it. After Thea Queen's abduction, Felicity was adamant on tracking her down. She compiled a list of Verdant's customers from the previous night based on receipts, traced the credit card numbers and connected it to their cell phones, and pinged them, looking at all of their photos. When Diggle commented on how much work that was, Felicity simply said, "It's Thea". She found a partial picture of a car that was registered to Slade Wilson, and hacked into its GPS. Later in the night, when Slade was released from police custody, Felicity lead the rest of Team Arrow over the comms, tracking the car Slade had entered. He somehow multiplied the signal into other identical vehicles, getting away in the process. Felicity attempted to calm Roy down when he got angry at Oliver and blamed him for Thea's kidnapping. She also encouraged Oliver when everyone else thought that it was futile, telling him "Go get Thea. Stop Slade. End this once and for all." Felicity and Diggle consoled Oliver afterwards, emphasizing to him that he was not alone when it comes to defeating Slade.

Felicity masterminded a break-in plan at Queen Consolidated's Applied Sciences division. Using the Skeleton Key, Oliver, Felicity, Diggle, and Sara infiltrated and planted explosives around the building in order to prevent Slade's further use of its technology. When Slade surprised the team in the foundry, Felicity was not hurt or even attacked, but later discovered that he stole the Skeleton Key from them. When Slade broke into S.T.A.R. Labs, Diggle and Felicity investigated to find out what Slade attempted to steal from them. They ran into Cisco Ramon and Caitlin Snow, and Felicity stated that she met them before in Central City and asked about Barry's condition. When they refused to tell her what had been stolen, Felicity hacked Harrison Wells' personal files to find out. She prided herself on doing so, saying "he's the director of S.T.A.R. Labs, which basically makes me unstoppable." Felicity also kept an eye out on the city's power grid, waiting for the moment Slade activated the bio-transfuser. When Oliver arranged a meeting with Thea, Felicity called him and interrupted, informing him that the transfuser just went online. She tracked the location but told him to wait to stop Slade, thinking Oliver's conversation with Thea was more important. Later, when Oliver revealed that there was a cure for the Mirakuru, Felicity went to S.T.A.R. Labs to have an antidote created.

Felicity continued investigating Isabel Rochev's death and told Diggle that S.T.A.R. Labs were still working on the mirakuru cure. Roy destroyed her computers after he woke up and left before he could do any more damage. Felicity called Oliver and Sara (at the same time) with the news that Roy escaped. She helped them track him while on his rampage. She also assisted Oliver with his hurt knee and helped him inject an entire bottle of Lidocaine into his knee. Throughout the crisis, contrasting with Sara's darker perspective, Felicity emphasized that Roy could still be saved.

Felicity attended Moira's funeral with Diggle. There, the pair ran into the newly resurrected Isabel Rochev, who both startled and threatened them. Felicity wondered where Oliver was and why he did not attend his own mother's funeral, and began looking for him through every means possible. She wondered if Oliver was dead, but learned that he was not when she and Diggle visited Amanda Waller, who informed them that Oliver was at his secondary lair. Felicity and Diggle found him, and when Oliver told them that he was going to turn himself over to Slade, Felicity tried to talk him out of it. She told him that if she had accepted things, "I would be a cocktail waitress in Vegas like my mother and I never would have gone to college and I never would have moved a thousand miles away to work at Queen Consolidated and I never would have believed some crazy guy in a hood when told me could be more than just some I.T. girl." He left anyway, which caused Diggle and Felicity to take extreme measures. They knocked him out, took him back to the Arrowcave, and revealed that Laurel Lance knew his secret. Felicity then interrogated her first victim, Clinton Hogue. Using only her tablet, she hacked into his bank accounts and tediously siphons away enough money until he gave in. Later, stationed in a van rather than the foundry, Felicity directed Diggle to plant a charge that should kill all of Blood's men. Before the charge was set, she reminded Oliver how hard he'd worked not to kill anyone. Cisco Ramon then called her from S.T.A.R. Labs, and she picked up the phone while saying, "now is really not a good time".

Isabel Rochev defeated Diggle and then subsequently asked him where Felicity was, expressing her desire to kill her. She was immediately interrupted by Felicity hitting her with a van. She and Diggle escaped and reconvened with Oliver, where Felicity announced that there was a S.T.A.R. Labs courier en route with the mirakuru cure. Felicity called the courier, only to find that he had been attacked by one of the mirakuru-injected prisoners. She pinged his phone, and she, Diggle, and Oliver drove the van to find his location. On their way, however, Slade's soldiers managed to crash the van. Felicity was the most severely injured of the three, being knocked unconscious by a head wound. Oliver carried her until she could walk, but by that time, the cure had already been taken by Slade. They held base in the clocktower, where Roy was being held. Oliver told Felicity that he took blame for what was happening to the city. She told him that he wasn't done fighting because Slade still had to be defeated, and even though she didn't know how, she knew that, "you are not alone, and I believe in you." When Sebastian Blood contacted Oliver and offered him the cure, Felicity wondered out loud if it was a trap. Nevertheless, Diggle and Oliver both returned, and Oliver prepared to test the cure on Roy. At the last second, Felicity tried to convince him not to, warning him of the potentially harmful side affects ("Treat Roy like some kind of lab rat? What if it doesn't work? What if it kills him? What if he wakes up and kills us?"). Oliver hesitantly decided to test it on Roy anyway after they discovered that A.R.G.U.S. was planning on leveling the city.

Felicity, Roy, and Oliver left the destroyed clocktower to head to the Arrowcave. While they were working to assemble arrows that contain the mirakuru cure, Roy asked Felicity if he had been unconscious ever since Slade had kidnapped him. She lied to him, telling him "you were out the whole time", most likely to prevent him from discovering how deep the damage had been when he was unstable. Seconds later, members of League of Assassins enter the Arrowcave. There, she met Nyssa al Ghul for the first time, introducing herself as "Felicity Smoak. M.I.T. class of '09." She then ran into Detective Lance at Queen Consolidated, where she assured Lance that both Oliver and Thea had gotten out of the city safely. When Lance sees Nyssa, the Canary, and the Arrow, he tried to convince Oliver to break his no-killing promise. After Lance left, Felicity told Oliver that she believed Lance was wrong and that murder was not the answer. She reminded Oliver that he had made a promise that he had to keep. She explained that the only reason that Slade was still after him was because Oliver tried to kill him on the island when he had the chance to cure him instead. Oliver told her that he cannot defeat Slade otherwise, she told him to "make him out-think you". Oliver unexpectedly took her to the Queen Mansion, apparently trying to keep her safe. Confused, she asked why. Oliver told her that he couldn't have her getting hurt and declared his love for her. He left her alone in the mansion; Slade abducted her from the mansion afterwards, called Oliver and revealed that he had the one Oliver loves most: Felicity. Oliver went to meet Slade where he was holding Felicity captive. He began talking to Slade, distracting him, and Felicity, who was being held with Slade's sword to her neck, injected the mirakuru cure into him. Flashbacks revealed that Oliver planned the "I love you" because he knew about Slade's cameras in the mansion and used it as a ploy for Felicity to get near Slade with the cure that Oliver had given her inside the mansion. After Slade was captured, Felicity flied with Diggle and Oliver to Lian Yu where Slade would be held in a secure A.R.G.U.S. bunker. While on the island, Felicity confessed that she believed Oliver's "I love you" for a moment, telling him "you really sold it". Oliver smiled and responded with "we both did." They met back up with Diggle and Oliver announced that he would fly the plane home. Felicity asked when he learned to fly a plane if he was stranded on the island for 5 years.

Return of the Church of Blood
Not long after their defeat of Slade, Felicity helped The Arrow and Roy as they grappled on to a "drug plane". As they struggled to hold on, she tried to hack the plane's Wi-Fi. Unable to get a clean signal, they went with "plan B". After they knocked out most of the plane's occupants, Oliver flew the plane back to stability, putting Felicity's auto-pilot gadget on to the dashboard to fly the plane. However, not all of the occupants had been knocked out, and one was able to shoot Roy, before himself getting an arrow through the chest. Oliver eventually caught Roy, who had fell from the plane, and they performed surgery on him back at the foundry. After deciding to patiently wait till he woke up, Felicity told Oliver that he needed a new place to live as the foundry was comparable to a cave. She proceeded to accidentally imply that she wanted him in her bed, as opposed to her intended message of a bed owned by her.

Roy's condition eventually stabilized, though Felicity was not so sure, and made Oliver promise to take him to Starling General if it worsened. As they talked to Dig about their recent batch of supplies, Felicity noticed a hostage situation on the top of Winick Tower, and Oliver soon went to sort it out.

After a run-in with a member of the Church of Blood, Laurel returned to the base and relayed the information regarding a resurfaced Brother Blood. The team reasoned that it had to be someone other than the original Brother Blood, Sebastian Blood, as he was dead (unless of course, as Felicity noted, he had somehow miraculously been brought back from the dead). Oliver went to check out St. Walker's Church, an abandoned orphanage where Sebastian had grown up. When he didn't check in, Felicity began to be worried, leading to Diggle deciding to go for backup. However, after neither men returned, Felicity grew even more worried. Suddenly, Sara brought in Diggle, who was badly beaten up. He explained how a seemingly drugged Oliver had tried to fight him, while Sara went back out to retrieve Oliver. Once they'd returned, Felicity did tests on Oliver's blood, finding traces of psychotropic drugs, more specifically mushrooms. He promptly woke up, explaining that one of Blood's men had likely injected him with some. Felicity headed home that night, coming across Abel and a number of other Church of Blood members, claiming to want to take her to Brother Blood. Once there, Felicity began talking to Brother Blood, deducing that he was obviously not Sebastian Blood, but she was freaked out by the mask nonetheless. Their chat was suddenly cut short by a commotion outside, caused by Caleb Green, who subsequently snapped Abel's neck and fled. She was locked up for a bit, but was soon taken to an air hangar, where Brother Blood called Oliver. Felicity attempted to stop him, believing it to be a trap, but Blood made plans anyway to meet Oliver on the roof of Kord Industries. He subsequently revealed himself as Clinton Hogue to Felicity, who appeared shocked.

Felicity was taken to a mercenary group affiliated with Hogue, the Renegades. She began talking a lot, which annoyed Bartek Kuranski, and she assured them him that he would be injured by an arrow to the knee. As they realized Hogue was late, Felicity assured them that The Arrow would arrive, as she had a "sixth sense" of sorts. Suddenly, The Arrow smashed through glass from the ceiling, along with Arsenal and The Huntress. As predicted, she was taken by Kuranski, but Oliver shot him through the knee, before being kicked in the crotch by Felicity. Before anyone could do anything, Lyle Bolton electrocuted everyone and took Felicity and Helena. Given a choice between them, Oliver picked the latter. As he let her go, Helena was able to knock Bolton down and take back Felicity. The two exchanged forced pleasantries, before they tied up the mercenaries, left the police a tip and left via the helicopter. As they went to fly away, Clinton Hogue appeared and began to try and kill Roy. Oliver jumped from the driver's seat and Felicity was forced to take control. Once they'd sorted out Clinton, allowing him to fall from the vehicle, they returned home. Felicity gave Oliver a bed in return for saving her, and he returned the gesture with a bottle of wine he'd promised her almost two years ago. He opened the wine with an arrow before they shared it.

Ra's al Ghul's plot
In, Felicity is first seen in the Foundry basement, leading the team to their next capture. When the team arrive back at the Foundry, she is seen flirting very obviously with Oliver after he asks her about a fern that appeared on one of the desks. She states that she bought it because the place needed a bit of "sprucing" since Oliver lives there now. Oliver then goes on to mention that Felicity already bought him a bed, which he seems to appreciate very much. Just then, a text from Thea comes in on Oliver's phone, which Felicity shows him. After Roy leaves, Felicity makes a quip about being depressed with her new job; Oliver asks if they are still on for tomorrow night. She confirms and tells him that she will make him the "corporate master of the universe" - being very physical and cupping his face with both of her hands. She leaves and Oliver watches her go with a big smile on his face. She is next seen walking in the ally outside Verdant, either heading into or out of work. Oliver catches up with her and asks her about her work. She tells him that "It is not work; it is a soul crushing exercise in misery that offers health and dental," which is why she says she is "highly motivated" to help Oliver regain control of QC. She tells him that he doesn't really have the qualifications to run a multinational business but he does have passion, so he must show the Board that he cares about the company and the people who work there. She pats his chest and tells him he has to speak from the heart. As she walks into the warehouse, Oliver stops and asks her out to dinner; at first she thinks he's joking, but after confirming he's asking her out on a date, she smiles and agrees.

Felicity now works at Tech Village as a shop assistant, Oliver and Diggle call her on the job, to which she dismisses the customer and runs into the back room saying that someone is calling for Tech Support. She mentions that they (John and Oliver) are going to get her "so incredibly fired" - indicating this is not the first time they've called her whilst she's working; Oliver asks her if she likes Italian, for their date that night. Felicity tells Oliver that he is the middle of a high speed chase and Oliver tells her that he is multitasking. Felicity quickly helps Diggle and Oliver pinpoint their target's location, then tells Oliver that yes, she loves Italian before running back to the store's counter. There, she is faced with a man who wants to buy a piece of hardware. She is at first wary of his knowledge of the hardware he's purchasing, but soon makes small talk about hacking and finds out they have something in common. He reveals that he knows who she is and asks her what she's doing working there. She asks him how he knows who she is. The man doesn't answer her question, but instead tells her that he knows someone who wants to hire someone with her expertise. She says she's not looking for a job right now although it's clear that even she thinks that that it is stupid of her not to be looking for a job in her field. She advises the man to wait a bit longer to buy the hacking hardware he wants so he can get the newer version, handing him a leaflet for the TX50 which comes out in a month. In the meantime, she gives him the url of a website that is a better way to hack into his target and wishes him "happy hacking".

Felicity was asked by Roy to reconfigure their system but Felicity told Roy how hard it would be to ping a clone off a hacked trans-band multiplex. They were soon shocked to find Laurel with Sara's dead body down in the Arrowcave. Felicity soon contacted Diggle to break the news. While cleaning up Sara's body, Felicity noted that Sara's hands were so small, always envisioning Sara to be an amazonian woman. She then got a call from her boss where she informed her boss who called to ask where she was and that the company was bought by Ray Palmer. She later found Roy on the computer, believing he was using it to tweet. She found out that Roy was looking for Thea and learned that Thea left because of him. Felicity then went to Queen Consolidated to ask Ray what he was trying to prove. She then informed Ray that she rather quit than work for him and left. Ray noted that Felicity wasn't mad at him but at something else. While running the DNA to find Sara's killer, Oliver asked why it was talking too long and asked Felicity to bring her "A" game. Felicity then reminded Oliver that their friend was in a freezer upstairs because they had no where else to put her and asked Oliver how he could be so cold and rational. Oliver told Felicity that he doesn't have the luxury to do so as everyone is looking towards him to handle everything. Felicity reminded Oliver he is still a human being so he should still have feelings. After Oliver told her that one day he'll likely end up like Sara, Felicity reminded how precious life is and that she wants more out of life. Later, Felicity identifies Simon Lacroix's next target, Tom Weston who was at Ray Palmer's Star City Pledge. At Sara's burial, Felicity performed a Jewish custom by throwing dirt on the casket saying it felt right despite Sara not being Jewish. She later accepted Ray Palmer's job offer, telling Ray she want's more out of life.

Felicity pinged Thea's cellphone, only to learn Thea had lied and had gone to Corto Maltese instead. When she arrived at work, she first learned she had her own executive assistant. She was then asked to recover data that was destroyed the previous year then learned her new office is the former CEO's office. When Palmer came to check up on Felicity, Felicity had incoming calls from Laurel and Diggle. After salvaging the data, Felicity requested time off to visit Barry Allen. Felicity surprised Barry at the Central City Police Department. Felicity was then introduced to Barry's new-found powers. Felicity was then brought to S.T.A.R. Labs, though Caitlin and Cisco were skeptical on Felicity learning too much on their "operation". Barry then told the two that Felicity works with the Arrow, so their secret was safe. Felicity then met Harrison Wells, who was more than eager to meet Felicity, noting her accolades. While Barry was training, Felicity asked how much the lightning really changed him and if it could make him age faster. Felicity dropped by CC Jitters and was invited to join Iris West's and Eddie Thawne's team along with Barry. Assuming it was a formal event, Felicity showed up in a black dress, realizing she had overdressed but was complemented by Barry, Felicity, and Eddie. Through the night, Barry and Felicity answer multiple questions correctly. When Barry left to stop Leonard, Felicity helped cover for Barry. After Barry was furious with his team, Felicity reminded Barry that teams don't start out like well-oiled machines. When Cisco went to hack into the city's network, Felicity took over and finished within a minute, claiming to be the fastest woman alive when it comes to hacking. When Barry asked to do the machine alone, Felicity told Cisco and Caitlin to follow. Felicity told the two that if she had a dollar every time Oliver asked to do a mission alone, she'd be as rich as Oliver. The three followed with a S.T.A.R. Labs vacuum cleaner, claiming it to be the prototype cold gun. Felicity said her goodbyes then left to return to Starling City. She was surprised when Barry had run after her train. The two discussed relationships before sharing a kiss.

After a brief workout, Felicity had a visit from Ray, much to her surprise. Ray proposed the idea of providing the city of free electricity as he believed electricity should be free to the masses. Shortly after, Felicity had a visit from her mother, who had failed to send her text. Later that night, while enjoying Big Belly Burger's, Starling City had a cyber attack from the cyber-terrorist group Brother Eye. Felicity brought her mother over to Verdant to help turn the power back on. She was later shocked after realizing the virus being used was one that she helped create years ago, though she had created it for good intentions. Felicity gave an address to Myron Forest, though it was a dead end. When Oliver returned and asked again if it was her ex-boyfriend, Felicity revealed that he had committed suicide days before his sentencing. Felicity then ran off to spend time alone, though she failed to hide from Ray Palmer and her mother. After a brief argument with her mother, Felicity returned to the Arrowcave, though was told to make amends with her mother. After the two made up, Felicity realized her mother was sent for a reason and they were attacked by members of Brother Eye. While kidnapped, she learned that Cooper had faked his suicide. After using her mother as motivation, Felicity hacked into the GPS of the trucks sent. She later used her mother's new watch to send a ping to Oliver who quickly tracked the two. After being held at gunpoint, Felicity subdued Cooper. The following day, Felicity "called in sick" to spend time with her mother.

Roy asked Felicity if she could test his blood for Mirakuru which she thought was crazy because he was cured. She asked him about what was bothering him when he told her about his dreams of killing Sara. Later she stopped him from suiting up and told that before burying Sara she created a virtual autopsy. She thought that it might be possible that Roy killed Sara if there was any residual Mirakuru in his system.

Felicity walked in Ray's office reminding him that he was supposed to be at a press conference twenty minutes ago only to walk into him doing the salmon ladder shirtless, causing her to mutter to herself that she has a type. Ray asked her if she was free for dinner the next day stating that he had a meeting with a CEO. She wondered why he asked her out of hundreds of other employees. Ray showed her a conture dress that he bought for her. Felicity agreed but only so that she could wear the dress which might cost more than her apartment and left sniffing the dress, saying that she and the dress are going to be best friends.

Oliver wanted Felicity to get something off the arrow but is visibly jealous of the fact that she was with Ray while he re-branded Queen Consolidated to Palmer Technologies. She found out the next hostage's information and her location. She told Oliver that Ray invited her to dinner back-tracking that it wasn't date, but work dinner and needed the night off. When asked if he was okay with it, he simply replied that she does what she wants. Felicity found Cupid's identity as Carrie Cutter and also that she had been stalking Arrow. Felicity also found out the nearest greenhouse to her apartment where the hostage could possibly be. Later Dig stopped by her office, telling her that she and Palmer were messing with Oliver's head but she clearly told that there was no her and Palmer, but if there were then Oliver should be the one to say something about it. Felicity came to the office dressed for the work dinner where Ray had ranted about her looking ridiculous not in a creepy but beautiful. Ray told her that her dress is missing something and asked her to wear the 10 million diamond necklace he borrowed for her to wear tonight. During the dinner, she had to leave due to an Arrow emergency. She explained to Mr. Gartner that Ray wasn't a businessman but an inspiration and if wanted to buy the mine, it was for reasons that would make him proud. Later at the office she apologized for the deal but Ray told her that he was going to sell and it was all thanks to her. Felicity told him that she should be thanking him for the job and also the necklace. He told her that these were the things she deserved and more. They both kiss, however Oliver saw them kissing from outside as he had come to talk to Felicity after Dig told him to tell her how he felt. Ray pulled back saying that he meant to keep the night platonic leaving her confused, told her that he will see her the next day.

On the trail of a killer who uses boomerangs, Oliver, Diggle and Felicity went to Central City, where Barry soon caught up with them. While Oliver was reluctant to join forces, Felicity worked as a liaison between the two teams and at her behest, Oliver agreed to help Barry take down an anger-inducing meta-human. During this time, she installed facial recognition software and she did not reveal Oliver's identity to Harrison Wells. After Barry was affected by Bivolo's powers, Felicity was forced to reveal Oliver's identity and could only watch as the two heroes did battle. After Bivolo was locked away, Felicity asked Caitlin to help identify the DNA on the arrows that killed Sara.

Back on the trail of the Boomerang Killer, Team ran up against ARGUS and realized that the killer is targeting them. By surprise, Cisco and Caitlin arrived to visit them and introduced them to their hideout, something Oliver didn't like. When the killer struck ARGUS directly and Barry entered the fray, Felicity helped tracked down Harkness' location through a phone he left behind, only to realize he back-traced their location and despite her intervention, Lyla was struck down by a boomerang. After the ordeal, she, Roy, Cisco and Caitlin compared how they handle things differently in Central City because fighting people with powers makes things less real for them. When Felicity found Harkness, herself, Roy, Cisco, Caitlin helped Barry disarmed an array of bombs that Harkness planted throughout the City.

After Nyssa warned Oliver to bring Malcolm Merlyn to justice, Felicity called Caitlin to rush the DNA testing, all the while, avoiding Ray after their awkward kiss, however things took a turn when Oliver's DNA ended up being on the weapon. Having realized Merlyn's manipulations was to them with the League, the team was shock to discover that Thea came with him. Afterwards, Ray, having tracked her, talked things over with her, revealing he is doing what he is doing to avenge his fallen fiance. Learning Oliver will face Ra's Al Ghul to protect Thea, Felicity begged not to go, knowing very well Ra's could kill him. Despite her warnings, he still left and proclaimed his love for her again. At this stage, Ray also brought her in to build his new Exo-suit to help him save the city his own way.

After three days, Roy, Diggle and Felicity struggled to keep up appearances in the City, Merlyn arrived with news that Oliver had died in combat, bringing them the very sword he was killed with. Devastated and with Diggle having figured Danny Brickwell's plan to destroy evidence, Roy and Diggle were overwhelmed by his crew and out of fear for their lives, Felicity trapped the two men inside, allowing Brick's crew to escape. When confronted, Felicity quits the team and proclaim without Oliver, there is no team.

Return to Star City
After five months of traveling and settling down in domestic life with Oliver, Felicity struggled to maintain her new position as CEO of Palmer Technologies. When Thea and Laurel returned to ask for Oliver's help against the Ghosts, Felicity convinced to him to go back and Oliver learned that throughout their trip, Felicity has been secretly helping the team. She explained that while she was very happy with Oliver, she missed the vigilante life and helping people. After unsuccessfully trying to locate bombs at the train station and a chance encounter with Captain Lance, Oliver talked with Felicity about how he used darkness as the Arrow to fight darkness, but say he doesn't want to be that kind of person anymore. Felicity suggested that he needs to be a new kind of person and after figuring out the bombs are on the train, she showed Oliver his new Green Arrow suit created by Cisco. After successfully stopping Damian Dahrk's plan and announcing the Green Arrow's existence as a symbol of hope for Star City, Felicity and Oliver decided to move back to Star City and into Oliver and Thea's loft.

One week after Green Arrow's broadcast Felicity continued to help team arrow while they tried to stop The Ghosts from setting of a bomb. The next day Felicity returned to Palmer Technologies to realize that the company was failing and that new employee Curtis Holt had written an algorithm to determine who needed to be fired. After Lonnie Machin tried to kill mayoral candidate Jessica Danforth she bought the truck he got his finger prints on so the team could get a match since the prints eventually she identified the suspect. Felicity he to fire two dozen employees including Holt but decided to rehire them all and starts working on a new technology that will bring The company money again. Oliver confided in Felicity that he was failing at doing things differently than when he was The Arrow and tells her he intends to run for mayor.

Sometime later Felicity was assisting Oliver and Diggle in trying to capture a group of Ghost agents. While the two tried to capture the Ghost Felicity tried to remind them of the good times when it was just the three of them that comprised Team Arrow. John finally catches a ghost, but before he could get answers out of him, he escaped. However, Diggle does manage to get his cyanide capsule tooth. Back at the base Felicity began to analyze it to learn anything they can about the ghosts. Felicity then suggested they all go out for drinks but John refuses (still not having forgiven Oliver) Felicity then attempted to have Oliver try to apologize but Oliver claims that he has apologized numerous times and that he has finally given up hope of Diggle possibly forgiving him. Later Oliver and Felicity track what seems to be a break-in. Oliver decides to go in without backup, much to Felicitys chargin. Oliver ends up encountering the meta human Double Down who can use the tattoos on his bodies as lethal projectiles and barely escapes with his life. Back at the Arrowcave Felicity tended to Oliver's injuries and called both Diggle and Oliver out for not having each other's backs as both were nearly killed tonight operating without the others help. Felicity then demanded that they amended their friendship or else. Felicity then took the card Double Down lodged in Oliver’s arm to Palmer Tech to have Curtis analyze it for anything that could be used to stop him. She also tells him her phone has been acting up a lot recently in order to have him figure out the encrypted message on her phone. Before Curtis could discover anything however Double Down attacked them and threatened to kill them if they did not tell him where to find the Green Arrow. Making their way to the down to the Arrowcave Felicity and Curtis manage to drive Double Down off although Curtis is injured in the aftermath with Felicity dropping him off a Starling General Hospital. John and Oliver later returned where Felicity told them what happened and revealed that Double Down was attempting to leave Star City to return to Central City which Oliver and John interrupt and manage to capture Double Down and repair their friendship in the process. The group later went out for drinks with Oliver telling them that he had a surprise for them.

Future
In a potential future, believing that Ray Palmer had died, Felicity renamed his company to Smoak Technologies. After a majority of Team Arrow was soon killed by Grant Wilson's invading army, she left the city, deeming it a lost cause.

Personality
In her college years, much like Oliver, Felicity was reckless and impulsive, yet kind, caring, selfless and moral, after her, then-boyfriend Cooper Seldon was arrested by the FBI and apparently committed suicide before his sentencing, these events is what turned her into the responsible person she is today.

Felicity is an intelligent, ambitious, hard-working, and tech-savvy woman who is highly confident in her computer skills. Though she doesn't go looking for trouble, she is also not one to back away from danger, particularly when there is a mystery waiting to be solved. These traits are proven when she accepts the task of looking into Moira Queen's seemingly blank notebook, despite Walter Steele's warning that the last man who looked into his wife's affairs died suspiciously the next day. In the same scene however, she also reveals a capacity for insecurity in regards to her position in the company, as seen when she assumed she was being fired after Walter called her up to his office. She is also a rather patient and indulgent person, as proven when she continues to use sarcasm to Oliver Queen's odd requests, despite the obvious lies he provides her with and the dubious and dangerous nature of the tasks he gives her, such as accessing the contents of a bullet-ridden laptop, analyzing the contents of what he claims is an energy drink stored in a syringe, and decrypting a security fob that contained plans to rob an armored car of Blackhawk Squad Protection Group, which Paul Knox claims Felicity was the first person to ever do so.

Aside from her natural talents and developed skills, Felicity's most prominent attributes are her capacity for compassion, kindness, and trust. It is presumably these traits that allows Oliver to trust her with the knowledge of his vigilante activities, as well as rely only on her promise that she would deliver him to his father's old factory after being shot, despite the risk of her alerting the authorities instead. Felicity proves her worth by performing all he had asked of her, and then going beyond what he expected by helping John Diggle patch Oliver up. She then stays at his side with John until he wakes up and, out of loyalty to the then-missing Walter, agrees to join the team to help locate her kidnapped employer. True to her tech-savvy nature, she proceeds to upgrade the Arrowcave's computers simply because Oliver's poorly set up system bugged her. She also helped him cover his tracks by hacking into the SCPD crime lab's computers and to order the destruction of Oliver's blood sample, which was collected by the police after he was shot by his mother.

Initially, Felicity didn't approve of Oliver's harsh methods, especially murdering criminals when necessary, but they ultimately came to an understanding after stopping the Savior. Even though both Oliver and John have tried to prevent the need at times, Felicity has shown that she is capable of handling herself in dangerous situations, having gone undercover in a Mob Casino, infiltrated the Merlyn Global Group headquarters under the guise as a delivery girl, and offered herself as bait to catch the Dollmaker, all to help them take down the criminals they were after. She has been shown training only twice; once with Diggle shortly after joining the team, and once by herself before Sara assisted her.

Conversely, Felicity is also portrayed as a jocular, socially-awkward nerd. She has a habit of babbling without censoring herself, and usually does so using innuendos with sexual connotation. This happens when she is nervous, particularly in the presence of high-authority figures (such as Walter Steele and Moira Queen) or those she finds attractive (like Oliver Queen and Barry Allen). Her trademark babbling often results in her feeling embarrassed, so she tries to backtrack and explain herself, which only contributes to her rambling. The exception to her embarrassment seems to be Barry, though neither of them seem to notice when she does it. But despite her tendency to babble, she isn't afraid to give voice to her opinions, and she always stands her ground unwavering when she knows she's in the right. Felicity uses humor in any type of situation, especially darker ones where her comical yet positive outlook on life usually relieves the tension. One of her strongest attributes is her ability to surprise others that underestimate her, such as Clinton Hogue, who scoffed at the idea of Felicity interrogating him, or Slade Wilson who thought Oliver "had a thing for stronger women", only for Felicity to be the ace in the hole in his own demise.

Felicity has shown to be emotionally unstable and has sometimes acted cold, harsh, and selfish when it comes to romantic relationships with people she has fallen in love with. Most of those traits have been with Oliver because of certain decisions that he makes. When Oliver confessed her love for her, Felicity rejected him because she felt that she could not be with him romantically because it would end their partnership against crime even though she does have romantic feelings for Oliver. After Oliver came back to the team and told them that they should work with Malcolm Merlyn, Felicity was shocked by that and did not want to be the woman he loved but when she was dating Ray Palmer, she could not tell him that she loved him because she still had romantic feelings for Oliver.

When Oliver kept his son a secret, Felicity felt so betrayed that she ended their marriage engagement to each other because she felt that Oliver did not trust her and love her enough to be with her and that their relationship meant that they are committed to each other even though she has told other people that lying can be used to protect people and she herself has kept secrets from Oliver before. Samantha, the mother of Oliver's son even told Felicity that she was the one that told Oliver not to tell her because Samantha did not know what kind of person Oliver was after she left him. This could have occurred after she was romantically involved with Cooper Seldon as their relationship ended badly or she could learned this from her parents former relationship as they too had an unstable marriage because there were too many lies and broken promises that Noah made with Donna.

When Felicity learns of the existence of Oliver's son, William, she breaks up with him ending their engagement; not because he had a child out of wedlock, but because he was never going to tell about his son, as Felicity cannot be in a relationship with someone she cannot trust or may lie to her in the future.

Abilities

 * Computer specialist: As an M.I.T. graduate (class of 2009) and a former member of Queen Consolidated's I.T. department, Felicity has proven herself to be a highly skilled computer specialist. She was able to recover valuable information, such as the blueprints of the exchange building where the Unidac Industries auction was being held, from Floyd Lawton's damaged laptop, despite the fact that it had sustained bullet holes. She was able to find the delivery location of a teflon-coated titanium blade arrow by tracking down its manufacturing company, Sagittarius, and finding out where and when it had been purchased using the company's records. She analyzed a sample of the drug named Vertigo and was able to find its manufacturing location in the city. After discovering the vigilante's identity, Felicity constructed a highly effective computer system in the Arrowcave, which she uses to locate people, places, and things Oliver has a problem finding on his own.
 * Expert computer hacker: Felicity is a highly skilled computer hacker, capable of breaking into any computer system, which makes her a valuable asset to Team Arrow. She was able to hack into the crime lab computers of the SCPD and order the disposal of the vigilante's blood, which had been lifted from a crime scene for analysis. She also managed to easily hack into A.R.G.U.S.'s data banks in order to track Deadshot's movements and broke into Harrison Wells' (the director of S.T.A.R. Labs) personal files. The only computer system which proved immune to her skills was that of Merlyn Global Group, but this was remedied with the help of Oliver and Diggle, who snuck her into Merlyn Global Group's headquarters so she could gain direct access to their mainframe. She then proceeded to download the entire schematics from the Markov Device, and planted a Trojan in the system, so they would know what Malcolm was up to. She is more than able to bypass most firewalls and is also able to do so with surprising speed.
 * Expert driver: Felicity has the ability to drive multiple vehicles, and appears to be skilled at it. She is able to pursue enemies in various ways using different vehicles, known to be a car or a van.
 * First aid: Felicity is shown to be skilled in first aid (she was taught by John Diggle).
 * Genius-level intellect/Great business acumen/Leader: Felicity is an intellectual whizkid, as evidenced by the crucial role she plays in Team Arrow, as well as her enviable skill-set in tasks such as information retrieval, computer software and technology, and the creation of customized gadgets, among other things. She was able to draw an accurate theory regarding Oliver's alternate identity from the few requests Oliver asked of her which would later be connected to the vigilante's activities, but she did not expose his secret identity to anyone, nor did she mention it until Oliver entrusted her with the information. Felicity hints at being scientifically proficient from an early age (claiming to have been engineering computers since she was 7), which is a recurring trait among child prodigies. She is also an adroit card counter, telling Oliver that "it's all probability theory and mathematics". When Felicity infiltrates an illegal casino in "The Undertaking", she is so adept at winning card games that she was immediately reprimanded by the owner, who was under the impression that she was cheating. She has a superior memory, and is an expert engineer, showing her prowess in disabling both bombs and the Markov device. She also hoards and displays intimate knowledge in many other subjects, such as history, politics, economics, geography, physics, engineering, biology, and chemistry. Being the Vice President of Palmer Technologies, she has proven to be a proficient businesswoman as she was able to help Ray secure rights to the mines. She proved to be worthy enough for Ray to pass ownership of his company to her. As third-in-command of Team Arrow, she has some skills as a leader as she was able guide Oliver and the team on their missions as giving them directions and instructions. She would occasionally step in to take command when Oliver and John would have problems or disagreements.
