Smallville Season 9 Episode 16: "Checkmate" Quotes
Oliver: The only way you'd get me back in here is by force.
Tess: Don't flatter yourself. The best thing I ever did in this bed was kick you out of it.
Oliver: Well, look, something out of your mouth I can believe.
Oliver: Who knows how many deals were sealed right here?
Tess: You buried an arrow into my chest, Oliver.
Oliver: Actually... it was a taser.
Tess: Well, it bruised.
Oliver: Better bruised than dead.
John: Your preparations for war are unnecessary. You're simply reacting out of fear.
Amanda: Fear? Fear is what prompts us to protect ourselves. And studying fear gives us insight to others' phobias.
Chloe: You know, Oliver... now that Green Arrow is officially on Checkmate's radar, I think it might be a good idea for you to hang up your tights for one night. Go civilian.
Oliver: Well, they're not tights. They're not tights.
Amanda: Did you properly secure the detainee?
Tess: He had a hidden lock pick.
Amanda: The correct answer is "No, I did not properly secure the detainee!"
Amanda: Green Arrow, welcome to Checkmate.
Green Arrow: I think you've got the wrong Green Arrow. I don't remember signing up for any chess club.
Amanda: You are a guest of the U.S. government. And the time has come for you to do your patriotic duty.
Green Arrow: I didn't know Uncle Sam was into drugs and bondage. Kind of gives a whole new meaning to the "I Want You" poster, doesn't it?
Chloe: You know, unlike some people, Oliver actually follows protocol.
Clark: What protocol?
Chloe: Exactly.
Green Arrow: You could use some conflict resolution. Rule number one - you don't shoot your date. Rule number two - think about your wardrobe choices.
Lott: You're one to talk.
Green Arrow: Oh, no, don't get me wrong. I love black on black. It's just really hard to pull off.
Lott: It's easier than you think.
Green Arrow: And rule number three - you got to know when to say goodnight.
