Synopsis for "Exit Strategy, Part 2"
Deathstroke has The Silencer handcuffed and he leads her to an abandoned area. He explains that she is needed to bring an end to the internal Leviathan war, he believes that the whole war began when Honor killed Guile five years past and now it is her responsibility to stop the fighting.
Deathstroke explains that Talia al Ghul had been lying to Hope this whole time, Slade goes on to reveal that Talia gave Hope's identity and location away to Leviathan to make Hope fight her battles. Though Hope initially rejects this idea, Slade continues and suggests that the easiest way to end the fighting is to capture Talia and with that, he cuts Hope loose and she begins to head home.
For Hope, the normalcy of her home is unsettling, her husband Blake has to go away on business meaning that she must look after Ben. Going outside to put the pins away, Hope receives a phone call from Talia and Hope tells her that she wants to meet.
As they drop Blake off at the airport, Hope and Ben drive to a diner where they unexpectedly meet Talia at a booth and with Deathstroke camped out a few streets away unbeknown to both.
As Talia reveals that it was her who compromised Hope's location, Deathstroke contacts Gunn who sends in a Leviathan squad to capture the two assassins.
Soon bullets cause the window to explode, causing Talia and Hope to fight for their (and Ben's) lives.
