The list of those who know how Oliver Queen spends his nights is an expanding one (there are so many motorcycle accidents one person can have until people start to become suspicious). Two episodes ago Slade told Laurel who the man under the hood was and now she is joined by Moira Queen who reveals to Ollie that she knows his secret. Unlike with the others, Moira figured it out on her own, during the night of the undertaking and kept it secret. Despite Moira deciding to drop out of the race for the sake of Thea, Ollie convinces her to continue running for mayor, saying he knows a little something about sacrificing those closest for the good of the city. Moira turns to Ollie as he leaves, looking troubled as she reveals she knows. Ollies worry is quickly replaced as Moira gives her blessing, adding she could not be prouder of her son (and maybe should have added an apology for shooting him a year ago). It is the reminder of everything Ollie has done that inspires her to continue her candidacy. It was a touching moment, but unfortunately the last the two would share.
