Joe breaks up with Cecile in an effort to keep her out of the metahuman madness.
Cisco is afraid he might end up killing his friend, thus his hesitance to shoot Caitlin. Now, he confronts Cisco about not apprehending Killer Frost when he had the chance in both battles. Julian is upset that Cisco hasn’t located Caitlin. Cisco blames Julian for taking the necklace off in the first place. Throughout the episode, Julian and Cisco have been at odds about Caitlin’s status. HR finds her and gives her a pep talk, convincing her to help Team Flash. Tracy runs away to think…before a statue of Galileo. Also the fact that she needs to speed up her work if not someone will die. Team Flash bring Tracy to Star Labs and promptly overwhelm her with her future greatness. Barry chases the ice-surfing “white witch” around town, but ends up getting stabbed in the leg…again. It’s pretty fun watching HR and Tracy, but Killer Frost interrupts the sort-of date. To keep watch on her, they send HR to flirt with her (HR’s own doing)/ask her about her work (Cisco’s doing, via earpiece). They manage to get Tracy to CCPD, but she leaves to get food after providing her statements. Tracy is burning her research at Central City University after her too-advanced dissertation fell through, and Killer Frost has arrived to kill her. Julian thinks they are neglecting the missing Caitlin/Killer Frost, who Cisco hasn’t been able to locate. The remaining team decide to look for Tracy Brand, the physicist who helped Emo Barry trap Savitar. Wally is visiting Jesse on Earth 3 (at this time?! I guess Barry felt sorry for him after witnessing the future). Joe, caught off guard, makes things awkward and escapes via emergency call from Star Labs. Joe and Cecile went on a date/morning jog, after which Cecile drops the L-bomb. There are only three episodes left – not a lot of time to see Barry being evil. To me, it’s not so much dragging out the reveal than the time left to really explore Barry as a villain. I’m doubtful of the writers’ choice to reveal Savitar’s identity so late. You’d think that a guy who calls himself the “God of Speed” (it’s crazy that a version of Barry Allen is conceited enough to call himself a god) would know better than to interact with his past self.
What happened to sweet dorky Barry Allen?Īpparently, he was trapped in the speedforce by his younger self (circa-2024 Emo Barry) so he decided to get revenge by murdering the fiancée of his even younger self (2017 Barry)… Ironically, in doing so he gives his younger self the motivation to trap, well, himself in the speedforce in the first place.
However, I didn’t want to believe that any version of Barry would even think of hurting Iris, much less murder. I knew it was a very real possibility after the “I am the future, Flash/I am the Future Flash” declaration. The biggest question of the season (besides “Iris West will you marry me?” that is) has been answered. The Flash episode “I Know Who You Are” aired May 2, 2017.
