Synopsis for "Quiver Hour"

Parallax teleports himself and Green Arrow away and shows Oliver a vision of him shooting Hal Jordan at the culmination of Zero Hour. He says that Oliver ruined all his plans to truly fix things but Oliver replies that he's not ashamed of what he did and would do it again. Green Arrow says that he knows Parallax is not the Hal Jordan of his world, but is a escapee from the previous Multiverse, which Parallax admits is true. He tells Oliver that he took refuge in the future, until Ollie's future self asked for his help setting up the system that keeps Team Arrow apart. Oliver demands to see his family and Parallax seemingly teleports them to Star City in the 21st Century, where Arsenal and Black Canary are about to enter a bar. However, when Oliver tries to hug Black Canary he discovers that he is merely a projection, and that they cannot see, hear or touch him.

The bar is The Brick House, a club owned by the crimelord Brick and frequented by mid-level supervillains. Roy is confident they will be able to find Waller's "help" in the bar. Dinah asks who they're looking for but Roy replies that the target will find them. Brick himself confronts the two heroes for coming into his bar and the patrons close in on them, but Roy is unconcerned. Suddenly the lights go out, and when they come back on everyone but Dinah and Roy is unconscious. Cheshire is revealed to be the one who knocked out the patrons and launches herself at the two heroes, but Roy tells Jade he knows she's not going to hurt him and asks her to help him find Amanda Waller. Cheshire refuses to help, until he tells her that Lian is in danger.

Back in the 31st Century Lian asks Brainaic 5 if he can track Parallax's energy signature and Brainaic says that he can, but they can't follow because time travel is illegal in their time. Frustrated, Lian asks if what the recording of the older Oliver said was true and her family really was responsible for the Great Disaster, but Saturn Girl replies they can't give her any details of the future. Lian accuses the Legion of never actually doing anything and Brainaic tells her the Oliver Queen dies a hero protecting his family. Lian points out that whoever is behind what has happened to the Arrow family has been meddling with time and therefore they are breaking the laws the Legion is supposed to uphold then they should try to catch them.

Parallax takes Green Arrow to the ruins of Star City at some point in the near future, but he refuses to tell him exactly what year they are in. He says that this is the timeline his older self is trying to avert and what will happen if he keeps trying to get back to his family. Oliver challenges Parallax to a fistfight with no powers or weapons; if he wins, then Parallax will explain everything and take him home, but if Parallax wins he can leave Oliver trapped in the future forever. Parallax agrees and the two brawl through the ruins. When Oliver starts to win, Parallax reactivates his powers and teleports away. Suddenly, the older version of Oliver emerges from a nearby building aiming an arrow at him, and says he shouldn't be there.
