PILOT
On an island, a blonde woman breathes heavily while running though a forest. She climbs a cliff wall and sees a fishing boat in the distance. She runs and leaps down to the ground below. She reaches a campsite and shares a nod with a young man.
He sticks the blade he's holding on a rock and the woman grabs a arrow and hands it to the man. He pulls his bow back and fires a flaming arrow into a pile of sticks creating a large explosion, the fishermen sees
Man: The name of the Island they found us on is Lian Yu. It's mandarin for "Purgatory"
Woman: We've been stranded here for five years. We've dreamed of our rescue every cold black night since.
Man: For five years, we have had only one thought, one goal......survive.
The man and the woman pulls down their hoods showing their face.
Woman: Survive and one day return home.
Man: The Island held many dangers. To live, we had to make ourselves more then what we were, to forge ourselves into weapons.
Woman: We're not returning the boy and girl who was shipwrecked but the man and woman who will bring justice to our city.
Man: My name is Oliver Queen
Woman: My name is Olivia Queen.

A woman is outside the room observing them
Moira: Has either of them said anything?
Doctor: No. They're barely said anything
The woman looks back into the room
Doctor: Moira, I'd like you to prepare yourself. The Oliver and Olivia you lost.....might not be the ones they found.

A man walks over to them
Walter: Oliver. Olivia, it's damn good to see you
Oliver and Olivia just looks at him
Walter: It's Walter......Walter Steele.
Moira: You remember Walter, your father's friend from the company.
Olivia and Oliver walks past her to the maid
Oliver: It's good to see you, Raisa.
Raisa: Welcome home, Mr. Oliver and Miss Olivia. Mr. Merlyn phoned. He wants to join you for dinner.

Oliver: You never left us.
CNRI OFFICE
Two women have a conversation whilst one checks the mail.
Johanna: Come on, Laurel. We're lawyers, not miracle workers. We can't win this.
Laurel: If we can't win a class-action suit against a man who swindled hundreds of people out of their homes and life savings, then we're not fit to call ourselves a legal aid office.
Johanna: And if we go bankrupt in the process, we won't be a legal aid office. Hunt has an army of lawyers, and they're ready to bury us.
Laurel: You and I against an army. I love those odds.
Johanna: Why do you hate me?
Laurel scoffs then sits down and stares at a board with pinned newspaper clippings and photos of ADAM HUNT. The TV is heard in the distance
And in other news, details as to the castaway story you've all heard about...the son and daughter of a very wealthy billionaire will soon become a legendary story. Jessica now has more details and the complete castaway story.
Laurel turns her attention from the board to the TV
The Queen's Gambit" was last heard from more than 5 years ago. Oliver and Olivia Queen has reportedly confirmed they was the only survivors of the accident that took the lives of 7 people, including local resident Sarah Lance. Survived by her sister, Laurel...

FLASHBACK
Robert Queen stares at the ship radar while Olivia walks around the corner
Olivia: Cap says the storm's a Cat two. He's recommending we head back, Dad.
Robert: All right, we'll inform the crew.
Oliver walks up
Oliver: Are we in trouble?
Robert: One of us is. Why can't you be like your sister?
Olivia smirks while Oliver rolls his eyes.
Sara Lance approaches from one of the cabins.
Sarah: Ollie? Where do you keep the bottle opener on this thing?
Oliver: I'll be there in a minute, Sarah.
Sara smiles and walks away
Robert: [Sighs] You know, son, that is not going to finish well for either of them or for you.
Olivia: And Sas is gonna hate you, you know?
Robert: Yeah she's right. Sas's gonna hate you
Oliver sighs, slowly nodding his head.
PRESENT DAY

LATER
Everyone is seated around the dining room table.
Tommy: Ok. What else did you miss? Super bowl winners... Giants, Steelers, Saints, Packers, Giants again. A black president, that's new. Oh, and "Lost," they were all dead...I think.
Oliver and Olivia notices Moira and Walter smiling at each other, Sasha notices them looking at them.
Thea: What was it like there?
Oliver and Olivia: Cold
Tommy: I gotta say; I did not miss that freaky twin thing you two do
Oliver: What freaky twin thing?
Tommy: The one where you say the same thing at the same time. It's creepy. Tomorrow, you and me, we're doing the city. You've got a lot to catch up on
Moira: That sounds like a great idea.
Oliver: Good.
Olivia: Then we were hoping to swing by the office.
Walter: (About to take a sip from his wine stops) Well, there's plenty of time for all that. Queen Consolidated isn't going anywhere.
Raisa comes to set a bowl of pears on the table. She trips but Oliver catches her and restores her balance while Olivia catches the bowl before it hits the floor
Raisa: Oh, I am so sorry
Oliver: [Speaks Russian] It's no worry.
Olivia [Speaks Russian]: You're welcome.
Tommy and Sasha looks at them stunned
Sasha: Since when do you two speak Russian?
Olivia shrugs.
Walter: I didn't realize you both took Russian at college, Oliver.
Oliver: I didn't realize you wanted to sleep with our mother, Walter.
Silence fills the room and the tension returns. Moira looks at Oliver then at Thea and Sasha
Thea: I didn't say anything.
Sasha: I didn't either
Olivia: They didn't have to.
Moira: Oliver, Olivia.....
She grabs Walter's hand
Moira: Walter and I are married and I don't want you to think that either one of us did anything to disrespect your father

Oliver: That's not very scientific.
Sara: What would you know about science, Mr. Ivy League dropout?
Oliver: I happen to know a lot about science. I know about fermentation. I know biology.
They both lean in and kiss each other.
Sara: Laurel's gonna kill me.....oh she's gonna kill me.
Oliver: Your sister will never know. Come here.
He throws her on the bed
Sara: Ha Ha ha!
Sara: Ok, that one was really close.
Thunder strikes close to the yacht
Oliver: Sara, we're gonna be fine.
He kisses her. The champagne glasses tilt and suddenly the cabin flips and they're thrown to opposite sides of the room. Oliver regains his balance and looks up to find Sarah only to see her ripped away by the ocean.
Oliver: Sarah?
The water takes her away and she screams
Oliver: Sarah!
Minutes later, Oliver is in the ocean by himself as he screams for Sara
Oliver: SARA!!
Oliver!!
Olivia: Ollie!!

Sasha: Couple years ago.
She grabs a towel and wipes the sweat off her face
Sasha: What's up?
Oliver: I got something for you.
Sasha: Ollie, you two were struck on an island for five years. You didn't have to get me anything
Oliver: I wanted too
He holds out a arrow head towards her
Oliver: It's a Hozen and in Buddhism, it symbolizes reconnecting. I kept it in hopes that one day, it would reconnect me with you.

There's a knock on the door. Both girls hide the pills and the powder. Olivia opens the door and walks in
Thea: Liv
Olivia: No one's called me that in a long time, Speedy
Thea: Worst nickname ever.
Olivia: Well you were always chasing after us when we were kids. We thought it fit pretty well. Maybe it still oes.
Thea's friend grabs her backpack
Thea's Friend: See you at school, Speedy.
She leaves the room
Olivia: I have something for you.
Thea: You did not come back from a deserted island with a souvenir.
Olivia: It's a Hozen and in Buddhism, it symbolizes reconnecting. I kept it in hopes that one day, it would reconnect me with you.
She hands the arrowhead to her
Tommy: A rock! That is sweet. You know, I want one of those t-shirts that says "My friend was a castaway, and all I got was this crappy shirt."
Tommy walks in
Thea: Don't let him get you into too much trouble. You just got back. Take it slow.
Olivia kisses her on the cheek and they hug.
Tommy: Ahem, the city awaits.
Olivia nods as Tommy glances over at Thea before following Olivia out the door.
HALLWAY
Sasha sticks her head out her bedroom room, her hair is wet
Sasha: Stay out of trouble. Don't do something I wouldn't do.
Tommy: Have you noticed how hot your sisters have gotten?
Oliver and Olivia gives him a stern look
Tommy: Because I have not.
TOMMY'S SLR
Tommy: Your funerals blew.
Oliver: Did you get lucky?
Tommy: Fish in a barrel. They were so sad...and I didn't have Olivia there to cockblock my ass
Oliver and Olivia: No.
Tommy: And I am counting on another target rich environment for your welcome home bash.
Oliver: At our what?
Tommy: You came back from the dead. This calls for a party. You tell me where and when. I'll take care of everything.
They drive though the city where they see homeless people on every corner
Tommy: And this city's gone to crap. Your dad sold his factory just in time. And why'd you want to drive through this neighborhood anyway?
Oliver and Olivia looks at their father's old factory
Olivia: No reason
Tommy: So what'd you miss the most, steaks at the palm, drinks at the station, meaningless sex?
Oliver: Laurel.
Olivia: Everyone is happy we're alive. You want to see the one person who isn't?
Tommy: Listen to the girl, she's smart
Olivia: I'm smarter then you
Tommy: Point taken.
CNRI OFFICE
Laurel is standing by her desk when Johanna approaches her
Johanna: Laurel, I just got this from Hunt's lawyers. They filed a change of venue. We are now in front of Judge Grell.
They begin walking around the room
Laurel: Hunt funded Grell's re-election campaign.
Johanna: Mm-hmm.
Laurel: He's got Grell in his back-pocket.
Johanna: You know, it's fun being your friend. I get to say "I told you so" a lot.
Laurel: No. Adam Hunt is not smarter than we are.
Johanna: No, he's just richer and willing to commit multiple felonies.
Laurel: We don't need to go outside the law...
Johanna: "To find justice." Your dad's favorite jingle.
Oliver is standing beside Laurel's desk looking at the board of Adam Hunt when he turns around. Laurel's smile drops when she sees him
Oliver: Hello Laurel.
OUTSIDE CNRI
Oliver and Laurel are walking outside the office.
Oliver: You went to law school. You said you would.
Laurel: Yeah. Everyone's proud.
Oliver: Adam Hunt's a heavy hitter. You sure you want to get in the ring with him?
Laurel: Five years and you want to talk about Adam Hunt?
Oliver: No. Not really.
Laurel: Why are you here, Ollie?
Oliver: To apologize. It was my fault. I wanted to ask you not to blame her.
Laurel: For what? Falling under your spell. How could I possibly blame her for doing the same things that I did?
Oliver: I never meant to...
Laurel: She was my sister. I couldn't be angry because she was dead. I couldn't grieve because I was so angry. That's what happens when your sister dies while screwing your boyfriend. We buried an empty coffin...because her body was at the bottom of the ocean where you left her. It should have been you.
Oliver: I know that it's too late to say this, but I'm sorry.
Laurel: Yeah, I'm sorry, too. I'd hoped that you'd rot in hell a whole lot longer than 5 years.
She runs into Tommy and Olivia
Laurel: How did you think that was gonna go?
Tommy and Olivia: About like that.
Olivia watches her walk back into her building.
ALLEYWAY
Olivia, Oliver, and Tommy are walking back to the car
Tommy: Ok, so we took care of that. Good call. Now we can make up for lost time. If you're not too sick of fish, I suggest we find some leggy models and eat Sushi all day. What do you say?
A van approaches them from behind.
Tommy: What're they doing?
They look ahead as armed men appears in front of them
Tommy: What the hell?
The armed men shoots them with tranqs and Oliver and Olivia sees them kill an innocent man who saw the whole thing before they lose conscious.
FLASHBACK
On the lifeboat in the middle of the ocean, it's cold and windy. Robert gives Oliver and Olivia a bottle of water to drink.
Robert: Here. Drink.
Olivia and Oliver both begins drinking the water
Gus: What the hell are you doing?! (pointing to the bottle of water) That's all we've got.
Robert: If anybody's making it out of here, it's gonna be them.
Robert: I'm so sorry. I thought I'd have more time. I'm not the man you think I am. I didn't build our city. I failed it. And I wasn't the only one.
Olivia and Oliver looks at him confused.
WAREHOUSE
Oliver and Olivia are zip tied to chairs with bags over their heads.
Mr. Queen. Ms. Queen.
The bags are yanked over their heads.

Man: Did your father survive that accident? I ask the questions. You give me the answers.
He tasers Oliver
Man: Did he make it to the island? Did he tell you anything?
Oliver: Yes, he did.
Man: What did he tell you, Mr. Queen?
Olivia and Oliver looks at Tommy unconscious on the floor. Also zip-tied)
Oliva: He told me I'm gonna kill you.
Man: [laughs] You're delusional. You're both zip-cuffed to that chair.
Olivia and Olivia shows their hands
Oliver: Not anymore
The first man attacks Oliver who dodges his attack and knocks him out of the chair. Olivia disarms the second kidnapper and uses him as a human shield. The third one makes a run as they chases him but not before checking on Tommy who slowly begins to wake up.
The man shoots at them, they dodges the bullets as Olivia wraps her arms around the man's neck
Olivia: You killed that man
Man: You don't have to do this
Olivia: Yes I do. Nobody can know our secret.
She snaps the man's neck
QUEEN'S MANSION
Lance and Hilton are sitting across from Tommy, Olivia, and Oliver. Lance points to a drawing of two hooded figures
Moira and Walter are also there across the room
Lance: So that's your story. A guy and girl in a green and red hood flew in and single-handedly took out three armed kidnappers. I mean, who are they? Why would they do that?
Oliver: I don't know. Find him and you can ask.
Lance: Yeah. What about you?
He shows Tommy the sketch) You see the hood couple?
Tommy: I saw... just movement. Everything blurry. I was kind of out of it.
Lance: Yeah. It's funny, isn't it? One day back, and already somebody's gun for you. Aren't you popular?
Moira: Were you able to identify the men?
Hilton: Scrubbed identities, untraceable weapon. These were pros.
Lance: Yeah. Well, they probably figured you'd pay a king's ransom to get your boy and girl back or a Queen's ransom, as it were. After all, a parent would do anything to keep their child safe.
Moira: I don't find your tone appropriate, Detective.
Walter: If Oliver and Olivia can think of anything ese, they'll be in touch. Thank you, gentleman for coming
Lance chuckles then looks at the twins
Lance: Your luck never seems to run out, does it?
He glares at them before leaving with Hilton.

Raisa nods her head

Walter: Darling, Oliver's a grown man and he has Olivia to keep him safe
Olivia: That he does
Olivier: Ha ha ha very funny.
Moira: I understand but this is something I need.
CAR
The car is driving though the city with Oliver and Olivia in the backseat, Diggle driving.

The car doors open and closes in the back. Diggle looks behind seeing they're gone. He slams on the brakes.
Diggle: SHIT!!

LATER
Olivia and Oliver are watching the news on the laptop
The suit alleges that Hunt committed multiple acts of fraud and theft against the city's underprivileged. Laurel Lance, an attorney for the city necessary...
Oliver's Voiceover: Adam Hunt...his crimes go deeper than fraud and theft, but he's been able to bully, bribe, or kill anyone who's gotten into his way.
Olivia's Voiceover: He hasn't met us yet.
Oliver pulls out the green hood as Olivia pulls out a red hood and walks out.
PARKING LOT
Adam Hunt: You remind Grell I put him on the bench, I can take him off. I will turn him into a cautionary tale.

Oliver: Sas, what are you doing?
Sasha: If you think I'm gonna miss your welcome home party, not a chance in hell.
Olivia: Well this is John Diggle.
Sasha: Right, your babysitter. Nice to meet you
She shakes Dig's hand.
Diggle: I guess you can call me that. Nice to meet you too.

PARTY
Oliver, Olivia, and Tommy are checking out girls while Diggle stands in the background.
Tommy: Hey. Does he wipe for you, too? Now by my rough estimate, you have not had sex in 1,839 days. As your wingman, I highly recommend Carmen Golden.
Oliver: Which one is she?
Tommy: The one who looks like the chick from "Twilight."
Olivia: What the fuck is Twlight?
Tommy: You're so better off not knowing.
Sasha walks up to them
Sasha: Trust me on that. Vampire anything suck
Olivia sees Thea getting drugs from a guy. She points to Oliver
Oliver: Back in a minute.
He and Olivia walks towards Thea as Diggle follows them
Thea: This party is sick.
Oliver: Who let you in here?
Thea: I believe it was somebody who said, "Right this way, Miss Queen."
Olivia: Well, you shouldn't be here.
Thea: Uh, I'm not 12 anymore.
Oliver: No. You're 17.
Thea: Ollie, Liv, I-I love you, but you can't come back here and judge me, especially for being just like you.
Oliver: I know that it couldn't have been easy for you when I was-away.
Thea: Away? (she chuckles) No. You died. My brother, big sister and my father died. I went to your funerals.
Oliver: We know.
Thea: No you don't. Mom had Walter and I had no one.
Sasha: Wow thanks.
Thea: You know what I mean? You guys all act like it's cool, let's forget about the last five years. Well I can't. For me, it's kind of permanently in there so I'm sorry if I turned out some major disappointment but this......me is the best I could do with what I had to work with.
She turns to her friends
Thea: Let's bounce.
Friend: You have the fun dip?
Thea: Yeah it's right.....
She reaches into her pocket and finds the drugs are missing
Thea: No, I...I...must have dropped it
Sasha hands Oliver the drugs she pick pocketed from Thea's purse.

Oliver and Olivia: Yeah.
Sasha: Well I'm gonna get me a drink.
She gestures to their hands
Sasha: Make sure you get rid of that
Oliver nods and Sasha walks away. Oliver throws the drugs in the trash then Olivia walks away bumping into Laurel
Olivia: Oh! Oh! You're here
Laurel: Tommy. He made the point that we have too many years between us to leave things the way we left them. Is there someplace quieter we can talk?
Olivia: Yeah
LATER
Laurel: I'm sorry I took my anger out on you, Liv. I'm sorry I said you should have been the ones who died. That was wrong
Olivia: If I could trade places with her, I would and you know Ollie would do the same.
Laurel: About Sarah... there's something that I've been afraid to ask, but I need to know.
Olivia: Ok.
Laurel: When she died...did she suffer?
Olivia: No
Laurel: I think about her every day
Olivia: Me too
Laurel: I guess we have one thing in common then. If you need someone to talk to about what happened, I'm here.
Olivia's phone vibrates, she checks her phone and sees it's 10 p.m and the account balance is zero
Laurel: Something wrong
Olivia: I asked somebody to do something and they didn't do it. Laurel.....you always saw the best in me. Right now, that's what you're doing, looking at me and you're wondering if that island changed us somehow. If it made me into a better person, it didn't. Stay away from me. I'm just gonna hurt you but it'll be worse.
Laurel's face falls and her heart clenches, staring at her hurt.
Laurel: You know what, Liv? You're wrong. That island did change you. At least now you're honest.
She storms off

Lance: He's a millionaire bottom feeder, and I'm kind of surprised you aren't friends.
Sasha: They've been out of town for a while
Lance: Yeah. Well, he just got attacked by the guy with the hood and girl in red, the ones that saved your ass the other day and they got a friend, a woman in a purple hood.

Oliver and Olivia exchanges a look
Oliver: How did you know about Adam Hunt?
Sasha holds up the camera
Sasha: I put it up when you were doing your thing with the tennis balls. You need to pay attention when you're being followed.
Oliver: We'll keep that in mind
Sasha nods her head
Oliver: What about the purple hood?
Sasha: Did you think I spent those five years feeling sorry for myself? The city was going to hell and I wanted to help.
Olivia: It's too dangerous to you
Sasha: I can say the same thing to you.
Oliver goes to say something
Sasha: Nope. You are not gonna talk me out of this.
