#Arrow 7.3 - "Crossing Lines" live recap

"Crossing Lines"

CURTIS GOES UNDERCOVER FOR ARGUS — Still in prison, Oliver (Stephen Amell) faces his biggest challenge yet. Meanwhile, Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) gets an intriguing offer, and Diggle (David Ramsey) asks Curtis (Echo Kellum) to go undercover for ARGUS. Ben Bray directed the episode written by Emilio Ortega Aldrich & Tonya Kong (#703). Original airdate 10/29/2018.

Episode 3:

Oliver. A bloody shiv. A guard dying. Dropping the blade.

12 hours earlier. Felicity vs. Agent Watson. She brings up the Longbow Hunters and Watson finally looks interested. Felicity says your deal with my husband ruined my life and the city. Watson says it was his choice to put on that hood and his choice to turn himself in. Felicity tremulously keeps yelling at the agent about Diaz. That isn't justice. She storms out.

Oliver and the little guy. Chow hall. Oliver tells Brick to tell what he knows about Diaz. Brick says a deal's a deal. He doesn't know where Diaz is, but there's an informant here. The Demon. I handled a transaction. I'll arrange a meeting. When? tonight. Cell 3B after lights out. And you'll know when.

Diggle says last chance before I bring her in. JJ in trouble. Did you or did you not eat this entire box of cookies. Lyla says now we know what happens when we eat too much sugar, right? They're leaving in 5. John wishes they caught Diaz before going. They honeymooned in Hawaii. They like working together. We make the best team. Awww.

Watson with another agent. Brought a Longbow photo to her boss. Diaz is only number 27 on the Most Wanted list now. He tells her he needs her focus elsewhere.

Felicity bugged the office. She and Rene watched the argument. She's sleeping on his couch. What does Diaz want at the CDC? She says the only way we get in there is with federal clearance.

Storm outside the prison. Oliver staring at the family photo. Cell doors open. 

Oliver tells his friend to stay here. Who doesn't. 

Zurich, Switzerland. John and Lyla and Curtis. Secret ARGUS mission. Get the painting within 5 feet of the bank manager's computer. They come in as Mr. and Mrs. Andrews. John reveals the painting. We need a safe place to store it. We were told you could handle this. Discreetly of course. Curtis into the system. The manager says they only need approval from the in house appraiser. Curtis says there's inside interference slowing the transfer. Lyla asks about the security of the vault. Download complete. Lyla says this is outrageous. We're taking our business elsewhere. She and John leave.

Felicity and Rene come to Dinah and Watson about the CDC interest. Felicity wants it to be a trap for Diaz. Tonight. Rene says no Canary, no Wild Dog. Just us. Felicity keeps pushing Watson. It's been 5 months! It's time to try another way. Watson agrees, as a one time thing, and if anything feels off, I pull the plug. 

Climbing the spiral staircase. Oliver tells the little guy to stop chatting. Get up to 3B. Oliver enters. It's empty. Where's the Demon? Brick got what he wanted and now he wants you dead. Criminals attack Oliver. One over the railing. One out. Oliver gets the guy under control. You're not going anywhere until I get answers.

Oliver says we had a deal! Brick has a game going on in the mess hall. There is a Demon, but the Demon summons you. The only way to the Demon is through Brick. There's a system. It's how this place works. Oliver will force Brick to live up to the deal. 

Entering the CDC. Let's the FBI team in. Bio containment lab. Camera on a loop. As far as Diaz can tell, it'll be empty. Watson and Felicity. Watson says just because the system is flawed, doesn't mean it shouldn't exist. Get the bad guy, then justice in court.

Curtis comes to John. Rambling. Remember the interference? I think someone duplicated the file simultaneously as we downloaded it. He thinks Lyla made a copy of the data. john will find out why his wife is lying to him.

Diaz and Hunters in the CDC. Reached the lab. Walked in with no key card. Felicity can't lock the door. Sonic disruption. Dinah's on it. Diaz finds the vial he wants. Packing up. Watson says time for plan B. She'll keep them in the room long enough to get the doors locked.

Dinah and the sonic chick. Fighting in silence again. 

One stray bullet and the place goes boom. Watson confronts Diaz. he tells the Hunters to handle it. Rene vs the shield guy. Watson vs. dart lady. 

Dinah and the sonic hunter.

Watson not doing bad. Rene is faster and more agile, but he gets tossed around. Diaz starts shooting. They run for cover. 

Silencer and Dinah still fighting. Dinah gets trapped. Rene saves her. Go get her! 

Watson says Diaz got away. 

Felicity says we can't let the Silencer escape. Silencer got away.

How much trouble is Watson in? A lot. Rene got out in a hurry. Felicity asks Watson how bad is it? What do you think? Felicity thanks her for trying. 

Oliver and his hostage. What are we walking in to? Prisoners at the doorway. Brick calls the shots. If I don't kill you, then Brick kills me. Oliver says everything I've done is for my family. He tells Oliver that he saved Lyla in 2014. Oliver says John never told me it was you. 

Lyla met with a man. John followed her. She says it's not what it looked like. He says tell me what's going on? The truth. She caught wind of something. Money changing hands that's bigger than anything we've done before. John is surprised she hid this. The one thing we agreed on is no more secrets. She says she was protecting him. There's more evil in the world than people to stop it. I can't stand around and watch anymore. Sometimes you have to cross some lines for the greater good.

2 prisoners guarding the door like Turner said. Oliver says get me in there or else. Turner approaches the guards. He says Queen is VIP. The high rollers will be happy to see him. Allowed in. They enter a fight ring. Brick says we have an unexpected treat this evening. Samson vs the Green Arrow!

Oliver doesn't have time for this. but no one's letting him out. Samson wants a rematch. this time, I'm going to kill you. Guards betting on it, too. Samson charges Oliver. Oliver bleeds, then charges back. Oliver breaks his wrist. Then his shoulder. Brick says you're a hard man to kill. Oliver charges up the railings to get Brick. No more games. Tell me where to find the Demon. Don't make me ask you again. Brick is amused. You'll never get to the Demon. Demon is on level 2, the worse of the worst. That isn't you now, isn't that right, Arrow. Oliver attacks the guards! Nothing fatal, but enough to get him punished. He drops the shiv. More guards race in with guns. Brick laughs.

Morning. Oliver in cell. Stop worrying about me. Keep your head down. Little guy says you'll never be able to stay here, not in this place.

Watson reassigned to DC. Felicity is not apologizing. Watson knew she put her career on the line. You don't deserve to live without your family. You're a good person, Felicity. Felicity is sorry to see her go. Square one sucks. 

Lyla packing. John apologizes. I was wrong. I should've given you the chance to explain before accusing you of something you're not. She says you have to trust me. He does. But it's so dangerous. Think of JJ. She does. But she can't turn her back on his. He agrees. Next time something like this happens, let me in. She hugs him and says she promises.

Rene and Felicity. He says this is a bad idea. Felicity is tired of waiting. They captured the Silencer after all. 

Diaz working on his project. He's told they got Honor. Diaz says all I've felt is pain. Pain of betrayal. Every bone of my body shattered when I hit the water. But I didn't panic. I was patient. He loads a syringe. Patience helped me transform that pain into something else. He injects himself. Punches the wall. Strength. 

They come for Oliver. You're going downstairs. Oliver limps past the others. Brick says the only way out of level 2 is through the morgue. 

Next ep - Felicity partners with Black Siren.
