"Our partnership with the force is not working.
Then we have to find a way to make it work. Compromise, do whatever you have to do because if you want a new future for this baby of yours, it won't be come by doing the same thing we used to do. We have to - We have to be something else... Something better."
—Oliver Queen and John Diggle
