Ray tries his best to comfort Mick after his death, but it doesn't really work. Ray eventually loses his ATOM suit and Mick offers Ray to become his partner and use Leonard's cold gun.

Quotes
"I died once. At least, the world thought I did. You know what happened? Nothing. All the money, all the buildings, all the inventions; the world didn't care. My life, ultimately, didn't matter. Rip is giving me the chance to help save the world. I have to take it"

- Ray to Oliver

"This is the second worst 'Attack of the Clones' I've seen."

- Ray, I, Ava
