Complete story — includes the ending
Oliver publicly denies being the Green Arrow, facing an investigation by FBI agent Samanda Watson along with William's concerns of losing him. Anatoly Knyazev and his men kidnap a group of Markovian delegates, demanding a ransom. Believing Anatoly leaked the photo, Felicity and Curtis work on discrediting it while tracking the hostages, three of whom Team Arrow saves while Anatoly escapes with one. Anatoly tells Oliver that he needs to convince the Bratva that he is no longer friends with Oliver and is not weak, injecting the hostage with a toxin which will kill him soon. Detecting the toxin and acquiring the antidote, Oliver injects it into the hostage, but Anatoly kills him anyway. He escapes after telling Oliver that he did not leak the photo. The media acquires evidence from an "anonymous source" that it was faked, but Watson tells Oliver that she will continue her investigation. As John prepares to tell Oliver about his degenerative nerve damage, Oliver convinces him to wear the Green Arrow mantle, deciding to choose William over vigilantism.
