My only real gripe this episode: Why does Barry suddenly start to have flashes (yes, I said that) of incompetence whenever a apprentice-in-training is around to step in and assist (or fail to do so and earn a lesson)? (E.g., Barry can't speed-blast the armor-suit and then blaze off after Black Bison; Barry's leg is hurt so that he can't save the girl, but seconds later he can streak over to check on her injuries.) C'mon, writers, it shouldn't take that much more effort to write the scene in which the noobs earn those experiences, right?
Oh, and does Flash really have to stand there defiantly waiting for Black Bison to animate something? Every. Single. Time? (Dammit, writers!)
But, other than that... so many amusements in so little time...
"That belongs in a museum!" And before I could even say "So do you!" and look around for Indy and the Panama Hat guy, here comes Night at the Museum, immediately followed by Ralph's multiple Jurassic Park references -- Ralph and Cisco really should hang out long enough to compare pop-culture references -- ...
Also, that brief what-did-I-just-say look right after Cisco heard himself pronounce "you're a wizard, Harry"... Yeah, in this the writers are constantly on fire.
I can only imagine what we'd see if The Flash's writers put the same detailed effort into plotting as they do into the weaving in of pop-culture references...
