ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW? YOU DON'T DO THAT! YOU DON'T END AN EPISODE ON A BULLSHIT CLIFFHANGER LIKE THAT!
I'm torn. On one hand, this was a pretty great episode with a lot of touching, emotional moments. On the other, I'm mildly bewildered by Barry's sheer stupidity. When he agreed to stay in the future and help Cisco get the team back together, did neither of them realize that if he manages to save Iris in 2017, this future will never come to pass anyway? Why bother? I know there's no such thing as wasting time when you're a Speedster, but it sure as hell felt like it. And why did he stare right into Top's eyes instead of just knocking her out cold immediately? Why did he make that mistake not once, but twice? Does he never learn?
Future Barry is a hobo who lives alone in abandoned STAR Labs. That is so typical of him, always with the dramatics. Don't get me wrong, no one loves this idiot more than me, but Jesus Christ, I need to fight the urge to smack him on the head 90% of the time. To be fair, I did like the way he brought the team back together and how he inspired his future self to crawl out of his shell (even though I still think it was completely unnecessary, but you know, they had to fill their weekly quota of tugging on my heartstrings somehow, right?).
I'm looking forward to meeting Tracy the physicist. Let's hope she manages to build the Speed Force trap and save Barry from joining Daisy Johnson's club for superheroes who lost a loved one, abandoned their teams and turned to Fall Out Boy and unfortunate hairstyles/eye makeup to show how heartbroken they are.
Why can't Barry ask legends to take iris into vanishing point, effectively changing the future.?
Now that was an intense episode I've seen in a while! The future was sure all doom gloom boom, but I almost died laffing when H.R said 3sum
What an episode! That last scene triggered the ship out of me. I threw my TV, flipped my shit, shouted at the screen. I can't believe Savitar was...NOT REVEALED! I'm so mad I can hardly breath! At least we know he has legs! But it was indistinguishable! I'm getting anxious. I'm checking everyone's legs.
"It's been 19 episodes already, it's about time we find out" -the whole audience. Those damn writers, they're ten steps ahead of us and we don't even know what game they're playing. But who the hell is he? It has to be Ronnie or Julian, right? Who else would she blindly trust? But Ronnie never met the actual team and what would he have against Barry? And wasn't Barry there when he was created and it was about to happen? Or, my theory: Savitar is using the Philosopher's Stone to look like Ronnie or Julian to trick Caitlin into joining him. Plus, Savitar called her her child. It's a weird thing to do if she's your lover. At this point I'm thinking it's baby Sara, who is pissed at Barry for erasing her from the timeline. Or Wally. It would certainly traumatized him to find out he killed his own sister. His dad? Idk, I'm losing my mind.
The episode was lit. Tom Cavanagh is a quality director. He should direct more or recruit all the Wellses scattered through time to help him direct. All these weeks waiting for this and it didn't disappoint. I'm in love with that future suit. It was cool. Very comic-bookey. The future-to-present transition was just perfect. And that dual Flash scene was really great. I love how Wally was all surprised like "did you go? you just left!" even though they discussed it 5 seconds ago.
Seeing Future Joe beaten and sad was the most emotional moment for me. That man deserves happiness. He and Captain Lance should hang out. The saddest Father-daughter drama.
Next week hype! Can it just be Tuesday already, please? It's about time we find out. This is The Walking Dead levels of cliffhanger! I'm getting too anxious right now, Groddammit.
I believe Ronnie Raymond is the Savitar because Caitlin instantly completely trusted him as soon as she saw him.
Future spoiler:
Also, I read somewhere Caitlin uses face changing technology to take Iris's place when Savitar kills her.
What a great comeback!
I can't get enough of Top and Mirror Master, they play a cool duo. Not as cool as seeing TWO Flashes in action.
Man, I'm so excited for this! This episode looks amazing and Tom Cavanagh directs it! I'm ridiculously hyped for this and to see Killer Frost in action.
Yo that wig is ATROCIOUS take it off:hand:
Ima mark this as spoilers coz this is gonna be right..... I recon Barry is savatar, some kinda future Barry or something
Hmmmm, I think it must be Ronnie. Time will tell.
As the future would be if flash loses or how to fill another chapter
Emo Barry is hilarious lol
Pretty good episode until that fucking stupid CLIFFHANGER, episode 19th and still we dont know savitar's identity.
So, apparently, you need two speedsters to travel into future but only one to come back.
Another episode about nothing but to give writers more time to write an ending (in which Savitar is going to kill everyone).
Caitlin becomes Killer Frost and Barry abandons his friends to go to the future. To try and find out who Savitar is. He however winds up trying to bring his team back together. After future Barry abandoned them when Iris died.
So in a way past Barry is no better since he also left his friends when they needed him. We're supposed to think about that I guess. Since Barry can go back to the minute he left anytime he wants.
I hope the writer's don't make the twist that Savitar is the Tom Felton character. Since that would mean 3 years in a row, someone they trusted was bad. I can't think of who else it could be though.
From the creators of "You can't lock up the darkness" comes the new and improved "You can't leg up the armor"
This episode was great I know Barry is going change the future some way and help his friends love this show

My name is Barry Allen and I am the saddest man alive. To the outside world, I am an ordinary Emo Allen, but secretly with the help of my old friend Cisco at wherever he is staying, I make sure to disappointeveyone and wear a wig. In an attempt to stop the sadness in me, I accidentally met my past self, and I saw myself without a sad-wig. But I won't let that happen, I'm gonna do everything in my power to pit him a wig, and I'm the only one sad enough to do it. I am the Sad!
