Just as the video was about to start up a woman came in and said "hi, I'm Zari I'm here to help Nora while laurel is gone."

"Don't move," Malcolm told Thea, bending down to look at the landmine. Thea nodded jerkily, and Malcolm examined the mine before looking up.

"The trigger's rusted over."

"Oh crap, that's not good at all," Curtis said. Thea paled a bit and grabbed Roy's hand.

"That . . . that's good, right?" Thea asked shakily. "That's . . . that's a good sign?"

"Nope not at all" Curtis said. Thea threw a pillow at him.

"Where do you keep getting pillows from, there was like one over there and you already threw that at me," Oliver said.

Thea just shrugged at him.

"No, that's really bad news," Curtis shook his head. "That means we can't disarm it."

"Well, somebody needs to do something!" Samantha protested.

"Thea, on the count of three, take your foot off the mine," Malcolm ordered.

"No, that will blow us all up," Felicity shook her head.

"I'm gonna take her place," Malcolm told her.

"Okay that's new and crazy for, even for you," Thea said.

"That's crazy!" Samantha's jaw dropped.

"Yeah, you're not the first one to call him that," Felicity told her.

"And she probably won't be the last to call me that either," Malcolm said.

"Oh I can vouch for that," Nora said.

"Me too," Zari said.

"I'll just find a boulder around here or something," Curtis began.

"No, we don't have that kind of time!" Malcolm snapped, turning to Thea.

"Thea?"

"No," she shook her head. "OK, no one is doing this, OK?"
"Thea," Kara began.

"OK, OK, it's all right," Malcolm nodded, standing up. "All right." He chuckled slightly. "I forgot how stubborn you could be."

"Don't know how you could forget that," Roy said.

Thea slapped him on the back of the head and said "I'm not stubborn."

"Yes you are," said everyone on team arrow. Thea huffed and crossed her arms.

He suddenly threw himself at Thea, and Kara rushed forward to support Thea and at the same time hold Malcolm up. Her eyes widened when she saw Malcolm's foot now on the mine.
