"So, we know that your mother knows something about the Undertaking, why do not we go after her for answer" Asked Diggle as they met in the Lair to discuss the Undertaking and how to stop it.
Thea who was busy with school earlier, was at the meeting and said, "We already tried that and that ended up in Barry getting shot and nearly dying".
"What if we tip the scale in our favor this time?" Asked Barry, thinking about how Oliver got the truth in the original timeline.
"What do you mean, Bar?" asked Thea, curious where her brother was going with this.
"We use you as leverage to get the truth, at the same time we get inside Merlyn Global files" said Barry.
"Okay, it seems you have a plan, so what do we need to do Barry?" Asked Helena.
"Me and Thea kidnap our mom and use Thea as leverage to get the truth and the same time Helena and Diggle get inside the Merlyn Global files and see what they have about the Undertaking." Said Barry.
"Okay, Bar so how are we going to play this?" said Thea.
"Okay, here was what I was thinking …"
Several hours later, Moria woke up tied in a chair with Thea also tied up in a chair nearby and seeing that the Hood was there too with his bow in his hand.
"Please, do not hurt my daughter" pleaded Moria.
"Tell what Malcolm Merlyn is planning and I will not have to" said Barry is his disguised Hood voice. "
I can't tell you, he will kill me … he will kill my family" pleaded Moria.
"You should be more worried about what I can do" said Barry then he raised his bow and raised it towards Thea, he shot an arrow behind her, missing her slightly and then loaded another arrow into it.
Moira gasped and then exclaimed "Malcolm is planning on leveling the glades".
"How?" said Barry.
"With this machine, he said it can cause earthquakes".
"Who built it?"
"UNIDAC industries, Malcolm used my company's science division to turn into a weapon" disclosed Moria.
"Why would you agree to this?" probed Barry as he was standing behind his mother.
"Malcolm threatened my family, he was already responsible for the death of my husband and the loss of my son for five years" revealed Moria.
"Where is this device?"
"I do not know"
"Then how can I stop Merlyn" asked Barry.
"You can't he is always prepared" said Moria. Barry took one of his knifes and walked towards Thea and released her from the chair and did the same for Moria and walked away.
"So how did it go at Merlyn Global" asked Barry as he walked back inside the lair.
"We got the information, had to call in a favor but we got it done. We need some time to go through all of the files, how did it go with your mother" asked Helena.
"She spilled the beans, Merlyn has an earthquake machine that he plans to use to level the glades, it was built by UNIDAC industries" recounted Barry.
"Do you know where the machine is" asked Diggle.
"No, my mom said that she did not know where the machines are" said Barry. "
Wait did you just say machines, as in more than one?" asked Helena.
"It would make sense, he knows that we know about the Undertaking so why not be prepared, I think he thinks that we would only look for one machine, not two" said Barry.
"What are we going to do about the Dark Archer" asked Diggle.
"I do not know yet but let's wait until we go through the information." Said Barry.
"Why don't we go back to the Mansion while we wait?" asked Diggle.
"Let's go" said Barry as he walked out of the Lair.
