This episode made me realize two things:
Who is going to be the Big Bad next season? The stakes don't really get any higher than the actual god of speed. How can they possibly top Savitar?
Barry is pretty slow for someone who calls himself "the fastest man alive", eh? He's not even in the top 10 if fucking Kid Flash has a better shot at saving Iris.
My stomach hurts from laughing. The Flash's had its ups and downs, but the one thing it consistently excels at is comedy. Cisco flirting with Gypsy, H.R.'s narration at the beginning of the episode, Joe and Iris' conversation at the precinct (poor Joe looked like he was about to have a stroke), Julian's complete lack of bedside manner, the list goes on. I love the humor on this show.
I'll never get over the way H.R. pronounces "Francisco". It's gold.
Cisco, my brave, selfless son. He kicked some serious ass in this eisode. I guess they're just beginning to really explore the extent of his powers.
Cisco and Gypsy were kind of cute. Once they got past the "I'm going to kill you" phase, that is.
I love that they jumped to Supergirl's Earth and fought in Cat's office at CatCo.
I want to see more of Iris the Badass Reporter. More often than not, she gets sidelined and doesn't do much except hang around S.T.A.R. Labs with no real purpose. Give her the storylines she deserves. Please. By the way, that scene where she faced the arms dealer at the warehouse got me thinking. She made a good point. If she's supposed to die 4 months from now, that means she's effectively immortal until then, right? I mean, what would happen if she went skydiving without a parachute? Or jumped into a pool full of hungry sharks? Or tried to learn to juggle chainsaws? Would she die, thus changing the future? I get dizzy trying to wrap my head around it.
Wow. Even though the story was not followed as such, it was a fun episode. It was fun as hell. Just Cisco in the suit, gosh. It was pretty cool. I want a poster of all of them in their suits. I would be happy for life. And Iris and Wally team-up was nice. I loved Wells's reaction: "Dad's like my biggest fan now. He'll be cool with this" Joe: "He'll no, I ain't cool with this". I laughed more than I should. Some would say, he's the reverse. And Cisco: "The other Wells's were geniuses, you're not like them at all. In fact you're the reverse". Yeah, I've come to grow fond of HR. He's such a weirdo. I love him. And wtf, he puts mustard on his fries? Earth-19 is weird, man.
There's one thing I just don't get. She gives you (in the middle of the day) 24 hours to prepre, and you end up fighting in the middle of the night. Well, yeah, if you don't have an answer, it's speedforce bitches.
I love Julian being the voice of reason here and the way he talks it's so funny. He reminds me of me, when I cause those awkward and embarrassing situations. I also loved Cisco and Gipsy's little battle. Both were fantastic, especially when they were travelling through the multiverse. It was just so fanfreakingtastic. So awesome. And I enjoyed the flirting so much.
So now that Wally's the one to save Iris the into will be changed. Because, in all fairness, if Barry's the one to save Iris, she's totally screwed up.
And HR and Cisco are amazing together. I love that weird bromance. This show keeps on getting better and better and Julian playing with Legos made it for me. so now, instead of explaining things with drawings, they're using Legos instead. so funny
Jesus! This show is getting worse episode after episode. This last one is terrible.
What I don't really understand is why the hell they didn't go back in time just to lock themselves up and train. That's the way they could get the time they need. In that Julian's speed-improve over time graph, it's made pretty clear that Barry can't reach the speed he needs in the time he has by the rate he's improving. So just go back in time and train the time you need. It's not like 'Oh we can't go because there might be another flashpoint', i mean if they're locked up there shouldn't be any change in the timeline
I love the difference between Cecile’s work and normal voice:joy:
This show has more lies, between supposed friends..... More walk outs I'll go talk to them moments in any show I've ever seen.
“Let’s talk about this, like adults, over dinner, or coffee.”
Cisco is funny this episode.
If you look closely to the 3D model, Iris model looks like some tribal figure lols
"My name is Barry Allen, and I'm the fastest man alive. Except when the writers forget that basic tenet (which they do all too often) and write some lazy plothole that doesn't make any sense with The Fastest Man Alive because it's just quicker, easier, and more seductive..."
They do kinda screw that up now and then, don't they? I mean, I know Gypsy's very well advanced with her vibey talent, but she caught The Fastest Man Alive's approach far too easily when they tried to ambush her by the waterfront.
C'mon writers, thinking through a little more consistency wouldn't hurt that much.
History that we take off the sleeve, but the hunt-rewards is a good personage and I hope to see it again

Flash's new opening:
"My name is Barry Allen, and I'm not the fastest man alive. To the outside world, I'm the fucker of past timelines, but secretly, with the help of my friends at the S.T.A.R. Labs museum, I train Kid Flash to be faster and fight metahumans like us. In an attempt to stop the evil speedster Savitar, I supposely didn't lock him up in the speedforce as I should've, and I saw him murder the woman that I love. But I won't screw it up this time. I'm going to take a step back and let Wally do the work, because I am the only one fast enough to screw it. Iris is screwed"
