Recap

On her way to Watchtower, Chloe stops to get coffee from her regular vendor. She then enters the tower elevator, undergoing DNA, fingerprint, and voiceprint identification. However, when Chloe enters the chamber, she discovers that someone is hacking into Watchtower's computer systems. Tess ambushes her and explains that she realized Oliver was worried about Watchtower, and he has feelings for Chloe. She has Chloe's hidden gun, but Chloe manages to distract her long enough to get close and struggle for the gun. A shot goes off and the security systems go into lockdown, sealing them in. When Tess demands that Chloe release them, Chloe checks and discovers that the computer system is in control and they're not going anywhere...

Episode Quotes
Coffee Vendor: You know, I've been meaning to ask. What kind of job has a pretty young lady working all night, every night?
Chloe: Actually, I work for a non-profit organization. We help people in need.
Coffee Vendor: Trying to save the world, huh?
Chloe: All night, every night.

Clark: I let myself in.
Oliver: Terrific. You, uh, hop up to the helipad, or just superspeed past security, Clark?
Clark: I used the elevator.
Oliver: How human of you.

Tess: All I wanted to do was erase any info you had on the Kandorians, not reroute it.
Chloe: I knew you were the Kandorians' lapdog, but I didn't realize you were Zod's little bitch, too.

Chloe: Fever-colored lipstick? Really?
Tess: Well, I was going to go with Plain Jane, but you seem to have that market cornered.

Zod: You are unmistakeably the one they call Green Arrow... a rebel with many causes.
Green Arrow: I'm glad to know my reputation still precedes me. You must be Zod... soldier with no army.
Zod: Hmm. I see my reputation precedes me, too.

Tess: Asphyxiation or firing squad.
Chloe: Damned if we do, damned if we don't.
Tess: Just damned.

Clark: This baby is proof that you can still have a life here... apart from Zod, without powers. Faora... Krypton lives on through you.

Basquat: They will hunt us to the last man. But they will fail, for we shall never be defeated. We will follow General Zod to the ends of this Earth.
