_
3
00:00:14,856 --> 00:00:19,234
Look at them praying for a
miracle that isn't coming.
4
00:00:19,236 --> 00:00:22,015
Who knows, maybe it's my curse
5
00:00:22,018 --> 00:00:24,221
to leave one betrayal behind,
6
00:00:24,224 --> 00:00:28,139
only to find a greater
one here amongst the stars?
7
00:00:28,142 --> 00:00:30,926
They could've stopped this,
8
00:00:30,929 --> 00:00:32,754
but none of them had the strength to do
9
00:00:32,757 --> 00:00:34,279
what must be done,
10
00:00:34,282 --> 00:00:36,935
but I do.

13
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,223
So what's it like
walking to go get coffee
14
00:01:17,225 --> 00:01:19,695
when you can run 4,000 miles an hour?
15
00:01:19,698 --> 00:01:21,618
It's nice slowing down
every once and a while,
16
00:01:21,620 --> 00:01:22,881
even for the Flash.
17
00:01:22,883 --> 00:01:24,469
- Is Frost joining us?
- No.
18
00:01:24,472 --> 00:01:27,449
Last night I sent her on a
two-week "Eat, Pray, Love" tour
19
00:01:27,452 --> 00:01:29,975
because she's still
pining over Mark Blaine.
20
00:01:29,977 --> 00:01:31,672
I thought she was mad at him all summer.
21
00:01:31,674 --> 00:01:34,240
And fall, but she still misses him
22
00:01:34,242 --> 00:01:35,266
even though I told her
23
00:01:35,269 --> 00:01:37,546
he's a jerk who is never gonna change.
24
00:01:37,549 --> 00:01:38,897
Let me guess, she didn't care?
25
00:01:38,899 --> 00:01:40,246
Yep, she said,
26
00:01:40,248 --> 00:01:42,248
"The heart wants what the heart wants."
27
00:01:42,250 --> 00:01:43,991
She's always been such a romantic.
28
00:01:49,866 --> 00:01:51,431
I have learned one thing
29
00:01:51,433 --> 00:01:53,215
watching Frost go through all of this.
30
00:01:53,217 --> 00:01:57,406
For the first time since Ronnie passed,
31
00:01:57,409 --> 00:01:59,571
I think I'm really ready
to get back out there.
32
00:02:00,555 --> 00:02:03,399
I'm gonna start dating again.
33
00:02:03,401 --> 00:02:05,836
That's awesome. I'm really happy for you.
34
00:02:05,838 --> 00:02:06,727
Thank you.
35
00:02:06,730 --> 00:02:09,231
Now, if I could just get
some oat milk for my coffee.
36
00:02:12,062 --> 00:02:13,670
Two bullet trains on the Calvert railway
37
00:02:13,672 --> 00:02:14,673
- are gonna collide.
- Barry,
38
00:02:14,675 --> 00:02:16,542
that's 50 miles south of Keystone City.
39
00:02:16,545 --> 00:02:17,587
Yeah.
40
00:02:36,869 --> 00:02:39,392
Ladies and gentlemen,
authorities are now confirming
41
00:02:39,394 --> 00:02:41,524
that despite a massive explosion,
42
00:02:41,526 --> 00:02:44,136
caused by today's railway accident,
43
00:02:44,138 --> 00:02:48,125
no lives were lost during
this horrific event.
44
00:02:48,128 --> 00:02:52,059
It appears our city has the
Flash to thank once more.
45
00:02:54,713 --> 00:02:57,149
That was amazing.
46
00:02:57,151 --> 00:03:00,065
You got everyone to
safety in what, 20 seconds?
47
00:03:00,067 --> 00:03:01,718
12, actually.
48
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:02,806
Try your coffee.
49
00:03:08,205 --> 00:03:11,250
Wow, you have seriously leveled up.
50
00:03:11,252 --> 00:03:13,426
If only you could teach
Frost how to do the same.
51
00:03:13,428 --> 00:03:16,516
I mean, bypassing anyone who
calls themselves Chillblaine,
52
00:03:16,518 --> 00:03:18,213
I think, would save
for a lot of heartbreak.
53
00:03:18,215 --> 00:03:21,260
I mean, Frost dating
anybody is a first for her.
54
00:03:21,262 --> 00:03:23,906
Right? And everybody
you dated before Ronnie,
55
00:03:23,909 --> 00:03:25,655
I'm guessing, that was you leveling up.
56
00:03:25,657 --> 00:03:27,831
You know, it's a process.
57
00:03:27,833 --> 00:03:30,399
Maybe just give Frost
space to do the same.
58
00:03:33,100 --> 00:03:34,751
Captain Kramer, while supportive
59
00:03:34,753 --> 00:03:37,667
of your transparency,
you have been criticized
60
00:03:37,669 --> 00:03:40,279
for your decision to disband
the city's meta-task force.
61
00:03:40,281 --> 00:03:41,802
Some people thinking that it will
62
00:03:41,804 --> 00:03:44,065
increase meta-crime across the city.
63
00:03:44,067 --> 00:03:45,545
Do you care to comment?
64
00:03:45,547 --> 00:03:48,896
Once I came to terms with being a meta,
65
00:03:48,898 --> 00:03:52,117
it helped me realize how important it is
66
00:03:52,119 --> 00:03:54,789
for everyone in Central City to receive
67
00:03:54,792 --> 00:03:56,860
equal protections under the same laws.
68
00:03:56,862 --> 00:03:59,646
So you felt as though
the meta-task force
69
00:03:59,648 --> 00:04:01,256
was unfairly targeting
70
00:04:01,258 --> 00:04:02,866
marginalized sections of the populace.
71
00:04:02,868 --> 00:04:04,000
Yes.
72
00:04:04,003 --> 00:04:05,913
Which is why its time has passed.
73
00:04:05,915 --> 00:04:08,220
All right, thank you, Captain Kramer.
74
00:04:08,222 --> 00:04:10,787
This is Iris West-Allen
for "Citizentopia."
75
00:04:10,789 --> 00:04:11,964
Thank you for listening.
76
00:04:13,314 --> 00:04:14,661
That was great.
77
00:04:14,663 --> 00:04:16,141
It was great. Come in.
78
00:04:16,143 --> 00:04:18,344
Allegra, you remember Captain Kramer.
79
00:04:18,347 --> 00:04:19,737
- Hi.
- Hi.
80
00:04:19,740 --> 00:04:21,929
Well, I'll... I have an appointment
81
00:04:21,931 --> 00:04:24,064
with Chief Singh, so... thanks.
82
00:04:25,500 --> 00:04:27,239
You wanted to see me?
83
00:04:27,241 --> 00:04:31,069
Yes, so the last six months
have been pretty intense.
84
00:04:31,071 --> 00:04:33,636
I'll say. We have three new reporters,
85
00:04:33,638 --> 00:04:36,161
an IT intern, and an office manager now.
86
00:04:36,163 --> 00:04:38,728
Plus, online circulation's
over two million,
87
00:04:38,730 --> 00:04:40,997
and your new podcast
is frickin' brilliant.
88
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,428
- Thank you.
- Oh,
89
00:04:42,430 --> 00:04:43,951
we need faster Internet.
90
00:04:43,953 --> 00:04:45,561
Should we call the new landlord?
91
00:04:45,563 --> 00:04:47,085
Sue Dearbon bought the building.
92
00:04:47,087 --> 00:04:48,938
I think we can fix our own Internet.
93
00:04:48,941 --> 00:04:50,234
Roger that,
94
00:04:50,237 --> 00:04:52,654
but seriously, I just
don't see how you do it all
95
00:04:52,657 --> 00:04:54,222
and still find time
for an op-ed each week.
96
00:04:54,224 --> 00:04:55,832
Well, I can't.
97
00:04:55,834 --> 00:04:58,096
So the bullpen needs
a supervising editor,
98
00:04:58,098 --> 00:04:59,793
someone who decides
which stories we cover
99
00:04:59,795 --> 00:05:02,274
and then assigns and pre-edits copy,
100
00:05:02,276 --> 00:05:06,278
which is why I am promoting you.
101
00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:09,125
Wh... Iris...
102
00:05:09,128 --> 00:05:11,456
I've barely been staff for a year.
103
00:05:11,459 --> 00:05:13,164
I... I'm not ready for that.
104
00:05:13,167 --> 00:05:14,406
Well, I think you are.
105
00:05:14,409 --> 00:05:16,765
Well, you do realize you
have people on staff now
106
00:05:16,768 --> 00:05:19,008
who are more qualified to
handle that sort of thing.
107
00:05:19,011 --> 00:05:20,008
I mean, Vanya?
108
00:05:20,011 --> 00:05:22,445
She's got 10 years of
experience under her belt.
109
00:05:22,448 --> 00:05:25,470
Or that annoying Taylor just
graduated summa cum laude
110
00:05:25,473 --> 00:05:27,864
from Barnard College. Even the old guy
111
00:05:27,866 --> 00:05:29,685
was a war correspondent in Beirut.
112
00:05:29,688 --> 00:05:32,565
Aariz is my age.
113
00:05:32,567 --> 00:05:33,685
Girl.
114
00:05:37,528 --> 00:05:40,225
Look, now that we're CC Citizen Media,
115
00:05:40,227 --> 00:05:43,184
I am busier with more and
more administrative duties.
116
00:05:43,186 --> 00:05:44,794
Iris, are you sure?
117
00:05:44,796 --> 00:05:47,319
You got this. I believe in you.
118
00:05:52,195 --> 00:05:53,890
What is this?
119
00:05:53,892 --> 00:05:56,632
A candlelit pizza dinner
120
00:05:56,634 --> 00:05:58,068
from our favorite place in Milan.
121
00:05:58,070 --> 00:06:01,420
Oh, thank God. I was too tired to cook.
122
00:06:01,422 --> 00:06:02,986
I can't imagine why.
123
00:06:02,988 --> 00:06:05,728
Team Citizen has been
in overdrive these days.
124
00:06:05,730 --> 00:06:07,695
Plus, Deon's still helping to stabilize
125
00:06:07,698 --> 00:06:10,471
your temporal sickness
with regular treatments.
126
00:06:10,474 --> 00:06:12,213
It's a lot to handle.
127
00:06:12,215 --> 00:06:13,562
I told you, I'm fine.
128
00:06:13,564 --> 00:06:14,805
Plus, you're not exactly
129
00:06:14,808 --> 00:06:16,565
an underachiever yourself, Flash.
130
00:06:16,567 --> 00:06:19,002
- Nice work at Calvert Railway.
- Thanks.
131
00:06:19,004 --> 00:06:20,526
I guess we both earned a night off.
132
00:06:20,528 --> 00:06:22,005
And without kids too.
133
00:06:22,007 --> 00:06:23,746
I mean, don't get me wrong, it's great
134
00:06:23,748 --> 00:06:25,966
having Bart and Nora stop
in all the time from 2049.
135
00:06:25,968 --> 00:06:28,055
But if we're ever gonna have a baby...
136
00:06:28,057 --> 00:06:29,109
Uh-huh.
137
00:06:29,112 --> 00:06:30,884
We need some alone time, Mr. Allen.
138
00:06:30,886 --> 00:06:32,233
Mm-hmm.
139
00:06:34,977 --> 00:06:36,587
- Great.
- Yeah.
140
00:06:38,110 --> 00:06:40,635
- Ray?
- In the flesh.
141
00:06:41,897 --> 00:06:44,492
What... what brings you to Central City?
142
00:06:44,495 --> 00:06:46,638
Oh, well you guys said
I could always crash here
143
00:06:46,641 --> 00:06:49,903
if ever I was in town, and
I'm here attending CCTC,
144
00:06:49,905 --> 00:06:52,805
but my hotel was overbooked.
And it's impossible
145
00:06:52,808 --> 00:06:54,833
to get a conference hotel
room at the last minute.
146
00:06:54,836 --> 00:06:57,954
So I figured I'd take you
up on your very kind offer.
147
00:06:57,956 --> 00:07:00,611
- Oh, that makes sense.
- Does it?
148
00:07:01,873 --> 00:07:04,047
- Are you guys having pizza?
- Um...
149
00:07:04,049 --> 00:07:05,310
Is it gluten free?
150
00:07:05,312 --> 00:07:08,051
- No, it's from Italy.
- Oh.
151
00:07:08,053 --> 00:07:09,923
So where is Nora?
152
00:07:09,925 --> 00:07:11,185
Did she come with you?
153
00:07:11,187 --> 00:07:12,617
No, she's saving the world
154
00:07:12,620 --> 00:07:14,318
one kid at a time and loving it.
155
00:07:16,671 --> 00:07:19,324
Am... am I interrupting?
156
00:07:19,326 --> 00:07:21,064
- No.
- Never.
157
00:07:21,066 --> 00:07:22,588
Really? Great!
158
00:07:22,590 --> 00:07:24,078
So is this a sofa bed,
159
00:07:24,081 --> 00:07:26,864
or, like, a sheets and
blankets on top sort of thing?
160
00:07:26,867 --> 00:07:29,856
Uh, there is a guest bedroom
at the top of the stairs.
161
00:07:29,858 --> 00:07:32,380
Ah, you guys are the best.
162
00:07:32,382 --> 00:07:34,339
I'll get the rest of my bags later.
163
00:07:34,341 --> 00:07:35,777
- Okay.
- Okay.
164
00:07:37,822 --> 00:07:39,387
I thought he could shrink things.
165
00:07:39,389 --> 00:07:40,912
Yeah.
166
00:07:42,697 --> 00:07:44,044
Truck's at the loading dock.
167
00:07:44,046 --> 00:07:45,437
Copy that.
168
00:07:45,439 --> 00:07:46,875
Transport team's here.
169
00:07:48,477 --> 00:07:49,694
What the hell?
170
00:08:00,976 --> 00:08:02,889
In three seconds, the two on the outside
171
00:08:02,891 --> 00:08:04,810
will draw their weapons and advance
172
00:08:04,813 --> 00:08:06,849
while the other two
hold their positions.
173
00:08:06,851 --> 00:08:09,069
Jack, you're up.
174
00:08:12,683 --> 00:08:15,162
I could've melted your faces instead.
175
00:08:15,164 --> 00:08:17,079
Guess you drew a lucky hand.
176
00:08:18,123 --> 00:08:20,031
Ooh, their minds are full of fear, Ten.
177
00:08:20,034 --> 00:08:22,777
Show them who has the winning hand.
178
00:08:26,697 --> 00:08:27,957
Jackpot.
179
00:08:27,959 --> 00:08:29,263
Oh, crap.
180
00:08:29,265 --> 00:08:32,570
My King, you know the drill.
181
00:08:43,018 --> 00:08:45,540
- Guess he folded.
- Well, that's no fun.
182
00:08:45,542 --> 00:08:51,416
Either way, that was damn fine work,
183
00:08:51,418 --> 00:08:53,853
my Queen.
184
00:08:53,855 --> 00:08:55,086
Well it's easy
185
00:08:55,089 --> 00:08:57,414
when you can see each
card before it's dealt.
186
00:08:59,117 --> 00:09:00,383
My Queen.
187
00:09:12,526 --> 00:09:14,092
Now what?
188
00:09:16,044 --> 00:09:17,655
We raise the stakes.
189
00:09:25,582 --> 00:09:27,149
There you go, Iris.
190
00:09:28,324 --> 00:09:31,543
Uh, Ray, how often do you talk to Sara
191
00:09:31,545 --> 00:09:33,153
and all the other Legends?
192
00:09:33,155 --> 00:09:35,460
Well, not very often.
193
00:09:35,462 --> 00:09:38,637
Nate and I do have a standing
drinks night once a month,
194
00:09:38,639 --> 00:09:42,162
but he's rarely in the
same century or year.
195
00:09:42,164 --> 00:09:44,599
Yeah, that may be why I
haven't heard from him lately.
196
00:09:44,601 --> 00:09:47,167
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
197
00:09:47,169 --> 00:09:48,864
Kind of.
198
00:09:48,866 --> 00:09:51,476
Yeah, it was really
hard leaving the Legends,
199
00:09:51,478 --> 00:09:56,437
but since then, Nora and I have
been more connected than ever.
200
00:09:56,439 --> 00:09:58,657
And, uh, you know I've been able to
201
00:09:58,659 --> 00:10:01,573
get back to my other
true love, pure research.
202
00:10:01,575 --> 00:10:03,792
Plus, my life's more balanced now.
203
00:10:03,794 --> 00:10:06,447
It's not just, "I'm the Atom"
and science takes a backseat.
204
00:10:06,449 --> 00:10:08,273
You know? So uh, yeah.
205
00:10:08,276 --> 00:10:10,633
To, uh... to second acts.
206
00:10:11,802 --> 00:10:12,977
- I'll get it.
- I'll get it.
207
00:10:14,992 --> 00:10:18,328
This year's legacy honoree in the house.
208
00:10:18,330 --> 00:10:19,505
Hey, Chester, yeah. Come on in.
209
00:10:19,507 --> 00:10:20,809
Okay.
210
00:10:20,811 --> 00:10:22,768
Chester, Ray. Ray, Chester.
211
00:10:22,770 --> 00:10:25,510
Ah, so you're the new team tech genius.
212
00:10:25,512 --> 00:10:27,094
Nice to meet you, Chester.
213
00:10:27,097 --> 00:10:28,923
Likewise. I've been a big fan of yours
214
00:10:28,926 --> 00:10:30,992
ever since reading your
papers on quantum qubits.
215
00:10:30,995 --> 00:10:33,387
So you're pretty stoked
about the Con this year, huh?
216
00:10:33,389 --> 00:10:34,910
Oh, are you kidding me?
217
00:10:34,913 --> 00:10:36,315
Ever since I found out you were gonna be
218
00:10:36,317 --> 00:10:38,783
this year's legacy honoree,
I, kind of, took the liberty
219
00:10:38,786 --> 00:10:42,006
of signing up to be the CCTC volunteer.
220
00:10:43,442 --> 00:10:46,355
I'm gonna be your liaison
for the entire event.
221
00:10:46,358 --> 00:10:48,533
If that's... if that's
cool? Like, if you're...
222
00:10:48,535 --> 00:10:50,622
- Like, if you're all right?
- Sounds great.
223
00:10:50,624 --> 00:10:52,319
Cool 'cause I already have
224
00:10:52,321 --> 00:10:54,241
your whole itinerary
planned to sweet perfection.
225
00:10:55,845 --> 00:10:58,455
So um, I'm late for work.
226
00:10:58,458 --> 00:11:01,546
So Ray, Chester, I'll pop by
the convention center later.
227
00:11:01,548 --> 00:11:03,201
- See ya. I gotta go.
- Don't you dare.
228
00:11:04,420 --> 00:11:08,094
Ah, he forgot his breakfast.
229
00:11:08,097 --> 00:11:09,398
And that's a bracelet.
230
00:11:09,401 --> 00:11:10,990
Uh, you know what? I have to go, too.
231
00:11:10,992 --> 00:11:12,382
Deadlines.
232
00:11:12,384 --> 00:11:13,906
Uh, you got the list of questions
233
00:11:13,908 --> 00:11:15,653
- for the interview later, right?
- Sure do.
234
00:11:15,656 --> 00:11:16,874
See you at 4:00.
235
00:11:20,392 --> 00:11:22,218
Heard some paroled ex-cons
236
00:11:22,220 --> 00:11:23,698
went shopping without their wallets.
237
00:11:23,700 --> 00:11:25,961
OG meta-criminals, actually.
238
00:11:25,963 --> 00:11:29,399
Jack, Ten, King, and the Queen,
239
00:11:29,401 --> 00:11:31,706
call themselves the Royal Flush Gang.
240
00:11:31,708 --> 00:11:34,187
They were Central City's
very first meta-threat.
241
00:11:34,189 --> 00:11:35,317
You work that case, too?
242
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:36,547
Actually, no.
243
00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:38,813
The first time they
pulled a job, I was...
244
00:11:43,590 --> 00:11:45,894
Kind of under the weather.
245
00:11:45,896 --> 00:11:47,505
It's weird. Their MO is
246
00:11:47,507 --> 00:11:51,119
stealing cash from
casinos, not microchips.
247
00:11:52,294 --> 00:11:54,035
Well, at least no one was killed.
248
00:11:54,938 --> 00:11:56,124
This time.
249
00:11:57,125 --> 00:11:58,474
Everything okay, Captain?
250
00:12:01,173 --> 00:12:02,782
This is the kind of case
251
00:12:02,785 --> 00:12:04,874
the meta-task force
would've been assigned to.
252
00:12:06,047 --> 00:12:10,353
Um, so your mimic powers...
253
00:12:10,355 --> 00:12:12,660
How exactly do they work?
254
00:12:12,662 --> 00:12:15,184
They only activate in times of stress,
255
00:12:15,186 --> 00:12:18,971
when my adrenaline spikes,
and the effects are temporary.
256
00:12:18,973 --> 00:12:22,019
That's good to... yeah.
257
00:12:23,412 --> 00:12:25,151
Allen, does me being a meta
258
00:12:25,153 --> 00:12:27,742
make working for me more difficult?
259
00:12:27,745 --> 00:12:29,434
No, ma'am.
260
00:12:29,437 --> 00:12:31,633
It's already tough enough as it is.
261
00:12:34,466 --> 00:12:37,076
I'll let you know as
soon as I find something.
262
00:12:37,078 --> 00:12:38,383
Good.
263
00:12:44,041 --> 00:12:47,608
So I've gone over everyone's
ideas, and they're great,
264
00:12:47,610 --> 00:12:49,088
but what I'd like to do is start
265
00:12:49,090 --> 00:12:51,307
with last night's
break-in at Mercury Labs.
266
00:12:53,442 --> 00:12:56,225
It's not news, not in this city.
267
00:12:56,227 --> 00:12:59,133
It's a high-tech theft
at a huge R&D corporation.
268
00:12:59,136 --> 00:13:01,403
Which happens all the time in this town.
269
00:13:01,406 --> 00:13:03,289
- Was anyone killed...
- No.
270
00:13:03,292 --> 00:13:04,936
- Was the Flash involved...
- No, he isn't.
271
00:13:04,938 --> 00:13:06,453
- Tragedy sells papers, folks.
- But...
272
00:13:06,455 --> 00:13:08,320
- Sorry.
- That's not the point.
273
00:13:08,323 --> 00:13:09,891
We should look into the
rumors of embezzlement
274
00:13:09,893 --> 00:13:11,063
inside the mayor's office.
275
00:13:11,066 --> 00:13:13,241
Scooping a major scandal
before our competition...
276
00:13:13,244 --> 00:13:14,617
Will make Iris happy.
277
00:13:14,620 --> 00:13:16,289
Get in touch with someone
at the mayor's office.
278
00:13:16,291 --> 00:13:17,769
I got 1,000 words to finish
279
00:13:17,771 --> 00:13:18,987
on the Sharks' new GM for Iris, too.
280
00:13:18,989 --> 00:13:20,911
Wait, what 1,000 words?
281
00:13:20,914 --> 00:13:22,600
Well, I know the mayor's
executive assistant.
282
00:13:22,602 --> 00:13:23,949
We were in the same
undergrad sorority...
283
00:13:23,951 --> 00:13:25,603
I need someone on this Mercury break-in.
284
00:13:25,605 --> 00:13:27,126
- So she'll tell me everything.
- Uh, Vanya,
285
00:13:27,128 --> 00:13:29,328
I really need you to
run with this tech heist.
286
00:13:30,250 --> 00:13:33,001
I'm gonna follow up on the
Calvert collision this morning.
287
00:13:33,004 --> 00:13:34,665
My source in the county planner's office
288
00:13:34,668 --> 00:13:37,789
says it's gonna cost several
million to repair the damage.
289
00:13:37,791 --> 00:13:39,225
Talk about a budget crisis.
290
00:13:39,227 --> 00:13:42,271
Plus, that is what Iris would want.
291
00:13:42,273 --> 00:13:47,015
Iri... hold on. Wait, you guys.
292
00:13:47,017 --> 00:13:48,453
Seriously?
293
00:13:51,456 --> 00:13:53,935
We found this at the
train collision site.
294
00:13:53,937 --> 00:13:55,502
I thought Kramer had you working
295
00:13:55,504 --> 00:13:57,359
on the Mercury heist instead?
296
00:13:57,362 --> 00:13:59,362
- Uh, yeah. I am.
- You are,
297
00:13:59,365 --> 00:14:03,552
but you think that it's related
to the Calvert train collision?
298
00:14:03,555 --> 00:14:05,251
I will know in a minute.
299
00:14:05,253 --> 00:14:08,036
While working evidence
from the Mercury Labs heist,
300
00:14:08,038 --> 00:14:10,778
I found charred marks
on the guard's weapons,
301
00:14:10,780 --> 00:14:13,215
marks exactly like those.
302
00:14:13,217 --> 00:14:15,430
Yeah, I was right.
303
00:14:15,433 --> 00:14:16,977
Heat signature's the same
304
00:14:16,980 --> 00:14:19,568
as the burn marks on the
weapons at Mercury Labs.
305
00:14:19,571 --> 00:14:22,664
Laser burns delivered
with pinpoint precision,
306
00:14:22,667 --> 00:14:24,133
Jack's trademarks.
307
00:14:24,136 --> 00:14:26,005
Okay, okay.
308
00:14:26,008 --> 00:14:28,969
Even if it is the Royal Flush Gang
309
00:14:28,972 --> 00:14:30,885
behind all of this, why?
310
00:14:30,887 --> 00:14:32,931
Why would they go
through all the trouble
311
00:14:32,933 --> 00:14:36,064
of causing a massive railway collision
312
00:14:36,066 --> 00:14:38,327
when they haven't even
stolen anything yet?
313
00:14:38,329 --> 00:14:40,025
I asked myself that, too.
314
00:14:40,027 --> 00:14:42,984
Then I found out what was
being carried in this case.
315
00:14:42,986 --> 00:14:45,683
A bleeding-edge beryllium core
316
00:14:45,685 --> 00:14:49,039
which is a highly unstable power source.
317
00:14:49,042 --> 00:14:50,600
And that's what caused
the trains to explode.
318
00:14:50,602 --> 00:14:52,777
No. A beryllium-based detonation
319
00:14:52,779 --> 00:14:55,085
would've leveled a
surrounding 10-mile radius.
320
00:14:57,784 --> 00:14:59,871
The core wasn't in the case
when the trains collided.
321
00:14:59,873 --> 00:15:02,395
Which means, the real question is,
322
00:15:02,397 --> 00:15:03,962
why is the Royal Flush Gang
323
00:15:03,964 --> 00:15:05,790
changing their MO to
become tech thieves?
324
00:15:10,753 --> 00:15:12,414
Korber, what's going on?
325
00:15:12,417 --> 00:15:14,841
Iron Heights just lost
power for three seconds,
326
00:15:14,844 --> 00:15:17,323
during which every cell
door unlocked and opened.
327
00:15:17,325 --> 00:15:19,978
Now they've got 1,000
inmates roaming the facility.
328
00:15:19,980 --> 00:15:22,545
- Barry, if they get out...
- Yeah, I know.
329
00:15:27,074 --> 00:15:28,334
Barry, what happened?
330
00:15:32,601 --> 00:15:34,340
I got the inmates back in their cells
331
00:15:34,342 --> 00:15:36,037
before anyone got hurt,
332
00:15:36,039 --> 00:15:38,172
but we've got a bigger problem.
333
00:15:39,390 --> 00:15:42,087
Looks like the Royal Flush
Gang just leveled up too.
334
00:15:47,699 --> 00:15:49,482
Well, I am impressed.
335
00:15:49,485 --> 00:15:50,919
A schedule, timed to the minute,
336
00:15:50,922 --> 00:15:53,879
including a coffee stop to recharge.
337
00:15:53,882 --> 00:15:56,945
Best handler ever.
338
00:15:56,948 --> 00:15:58,407
Oh, you're getting a whole lot more
339
00:15:58,409 --> 00:15:59,974
than java in Jitters, my friend.
340
00:15:59,976 --> 00:16:03,848
How about a dozen CCTC
entrepreneurial hopefuls,
341
00:16:03,850 --> 00:16:06,851
each with their own
game-changing startup idea
342
00:16:06,853 --> 00:16:09,418
ready to pitch in three minutes or less?
343
00:16:09,420 --> 00:16:11,420
To Ray Palmer,
344
00:16:11,422 --> 00:16:14,249
business behemoth, scientific genius.
345
00:16:15,426 --> 00:16:16,643
Am I right?
346
00:16:16,645 --> 00:16:18,558
Okay, okay, come on.
347
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,562
Let's go make some dreams come true.
348
00:16:25,175 --> 00:16:26,566
- Chester.
- Yeah.
349
00:16:26,568 --> 00:16:28,002
What made you think that I...
350
00:16:28,004 --> 00:16:30,091
Oh, oh, I... I just
know how much you used
351
00:16:30,093 --> 00:16:32,313
startup investments
to expand Palmer Tech.
352
00:16:32,316 --> 00:16:34,742
You just got, like, a nose for science,
353
00:16:34,745 --> 00:16:36,706
but I also know you've been out
of the game for a little while.
354
00:16:36,708 --> 00:16:39,013
So I figured I'd help
jumpstart the magic.
355
00:16:39,015 --> 00:16:40,928
- Okay.
- And don't worry
356
00:16:40,930 --> 00:16:42,582
about Tech Con, 'cause
your interview with Iris
357
00:16:42,584 --> 00:16:44,192
isn't for another 90 minutes.
358
00:16:44,194 --> 00:16:47,106
So we got time. Hey, got your back, man.
359
00:16:47,109 --> 00:16:49,197
Thank you but I'm not
worried about my schedule.
360
00:16:49,199 --> 00:16:50,677
Oh, right, right.
361
00:16:50,679 --> 00:16:53,158
You need a cronut first, obviously.
362
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,942
- Excuse me...
- Chester, Chester.
363
00:16:54,944 --> 00:16:56,380
Chester, I...
364
00:16:57,729 --> 00:16:59,949
I don't want to start
another tech business.
365
00:17:04,084 --> 00:17:06,171
It's like I told Barry and Iris,
366
00:17:06,173 --> 00:17:10,438
the only thing I want to pursue
these days is a balanced life.
367
00:17:11,918 --> 00:17:14,266
That's why I haven't worn
the Atom suit in ages.
368
00:17:15,486 --> 00:17:18,313
But you're a... a Legend?
369
00:17:18,315 --> 00:17:21,186
Was a Legend.
370
00:17:21,188 --> 00:17:25,322
Now, I suppose, that's
what Team Flash is for.
371
00:17:27,019 --> 00:17:30,890
Look, I know how that
might sound for the Atom,
372
00:17:30,893 --> 00:17:33,763
but Ray Palmer's priorities are
373
00:17:33,765 --> 00:17:36,592
his wife and working in his own lab.
374
00:17:36,594 --> 00:17:38,333
I... I hope that you
can understand that.
375
00:17:38,335 --> 00:17:39,726
I... yeah, no, no.
376
00:17:39,728 --> 00:17:42,207
I... I get it, and...
377
00:17:42,209 --> 00:17:45,453
I am... I'm so sorry.
378
00:17:45,456 --> 00:17:47,239
It's okay, it's okay.
Ah, but we should...
379
00:17:47,242 --> 00:17:48,676
Everyone...
380
00:17:48,679 --> 00:17:52,484
Today's pitch sessions are officially
381
00:17:53,873 --> 00:17:55,481
- cancelled.
- What?
382
00:17:55,483 --> 00:17:57,178
- No, that's not fair.
- Guys? Guys?
383
00:17:57,180 --> 00:18:00,225
We are impinging on a great man's time.
384
00:18:00,227 --> 00:18:01,443
So get.
385
00:18:01,445 --> 00:18:03,793
Go on, go on.
386
00:18:03,795 --> 00:18:06,361
Sorry, everyone.
387
00:18:06,363 --> 00:18:08,581
I still believe in you.
388
00:18:08,583 --> 00:18:09,889
I like your sweater.
389
00:18:11,360 --> 00:18:12,884
And I will, um...
390
00:18:14,588 --> 00:18:16,849
I will leave you to get your privacy on.
391
00:18:18,071 --> 00:18:20,549
And again, I am...
392
00:18:20,551 --> 00:18:21,811
I'm so sorry.
393
00:18:21,813 --> 00:18:23,683
Chester, I...
394
00:18:34,769 --> 00:18:36,377
Thank you so much for coming.
395
00:18:36,380 --> 00:18:38,859
It's so exciting to have you here.
396
00:18:38,862 --> 00:18:41,788
When I founded this
conference five years ago,
397
00:18:41,790 --> 00:18:44,704
I never would've dreamed
we'd get coverage like this.
398
00:18:44,706 --> 00:18:47,402
- Well, this is pretty impressive.
- Yeah.
399
00:18:47,404 --> 00:18:50,492
Hey, your press pass gets
you into our afterparties.
400
00:18:50,494 --> 00:18:53,408
Are you a fan of filk
music by any chance?
401
00:18:53,410 --> 00:18:55,149
Boss? Excuse me.
402
00:18:55,151 --> 00:18:56,281
Can we talk?
403
00:18:56,283 --> 00:18:58,283
We'll gab later.
404
00:18:58,285 --> 00:18:59,762
Hey.
405
00:18:59,764 --> 00:19:02,722
So I totally blew it at the office.
406
00:19:02,724 --> 00:19:04,637
I told you, I wasn't ready.
407
00:19:04,639 --> 00:19:06,856
You got resistance from the staff.
408
00:19:06,858 --> 00:19:08,728
They barely listened to me.
409
00:19:08,730 --> 00:19:11,083
I'm pretty sure they think I
don't have enough experience,
410
00:19:11,086 --> 00:19:13,031
which I don't, and they think that
411
00:19:13,034 --> 00:19:15,213
my suggestions for which
stories to cover are wrong.
412
00:19:15,215 --> 00:19:17,389
Yeah, I figured that might happen.
413
00:19:17,391 --> 00:19:18,956
Then why put me in charge?
414
00:19:18,958 --> 00:19:20,348
Well, because you can handle it.
415
00:19:20,350 --> 00:19:22,698
And dealing with this is a part
416
00:19:22,700 --> 00:19:24,352
of growing into your new position.
417
00:19:24,354 --> 00:19:27,965
Well, I am not growing.
I am crashing and burning.
418
00:19:27,967 --> 00:19:30,141
Iris, I can't do this.
419
00:19:30,143 --> 00:19:31,881
Yes, you can.
420
00:19:31,883 --> 00:19:33,666
Well, how do you know?
421
00:19:33,668 --> 00:19:37,235
Because you're exactly
what CCC Media needs.
422
00:19:37,237 --> 00:19:39,802
You have a point of view
that's entirely your own,
423
00:19:39,804 --> 00:19:41,761
and you know this city better
than anyone in that room.
424
00:19:41,763 --> 00:19:43,148
You grew up here.
425
00:19:43,151 --> 00:19:44,633
You not only survived Iron Heights,
426
00:19:44,636 --> 00:19:46,287
you came out on the other side a hero.
427
00:19:46,289 --> 00:19:47,897
I could melt Taylor's face.
428
00:19:47,899 --> 00:19:49,645
You went from juvenile delinquent
429
00:19:49,648 --> 00:19:51,075
to voice of the people,
430
00:19:51,077 --> 00:19:53,816
and I'm talking about your
writing, not your meta-powers.
431
00:19:53,818 --> 00:19:57,081
Your articles speak to people
because you're one of them.
432
00:19:57,083 --> 00:19:58,952
That's your point of view.
433
00:19:58,954 --> 00:20:01,824
It's also how CCC
Media speaks to the city
434
00:20:01,826 --> 00:20:04,813
and why people respond so strongly.
435
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,352
Okay, but being a journalist
436
00:20:08,355 --> 00:20:10,616
and being in charge are way different.
437
00:20:10,618 --> 00:20:12,096
Look, I know that it's scary,
438
00:20:12,098 --> 00:20:13,883
but think how you leveled up as a meta.
439
00:20:13,886 --> 00:20:15,477
I'm sure that was scary, too.
440
00:20:18,626 --> 00:20:20,843
Try terrifying,
441
00:20:20,845 --> 00:20:24,108
but somehow I knew I
could handle an upgrade.
442
00:20:24,110 --> 00:20:26,066
Okay, then do that at the office, too.
443
00:20:26,068 --> 00:20:29,039
Your point of view is
perfect for this company.
444
00:20:29,042 --> 00:20:30,086
You've already learned how to own it.
445
00:20:30,088 --> 00:20:33,004
Now go, sell it. Go.
446
00:20:36,165 --> 00:20:37,730
Sell it.
447
00:20:37,732 --> 00:20:39,819
Turns out the Royal Flush Gang
448
00:20:39,821 --> 00:20:42,256
kidnapped a prisoner
named Jared Haywood.
449
00:20:42,258 --> 00:20:44,302
Had any luck tracking them down?
450
00:20:44,304 --> 00:20:45,694
Not yet.
451
00:20:45,696 --> 00:20:47,914
What about the Mercury Labs chip?
452
00:20:47,916 --> 00:20:49,481
Chester's still trying to figure out
453
00:20:49,483 --> 00:20:51,178
why the Royal Flush Gang would need it.
454
00:20:51,180 --> 00:20:53,572
- Okay.
- Not anymore.
455
00:20:53,574 --> 00:20:55,574
Turns out that chip's so cutting edge,
456
00:20:55,576 --> 00:20:58,925
it has, like, a thousand
different applications, so...
457
00:20:58,927 --> 00:21:00,840
sorry. I blew it.
458
00:21:00,842 --> 00:21:02,537
Seems to be my thing today.
459
00:21:02,539 --> 00:21:04,496
Hey,
460
00:21:04,498 --> 00:21:05,932
what's going on, Chester?
461
00:21:05,934 --> 00:21:07,629
I'm sensing a whole lot of sadness.
462
00:21:07,631 --> 00:21:09,528
Yeah, aren't you supposed
to still be with Ray?
463
00:21:09,531 --> 00:21:12,895
I have resigned as Ray's liaison.
464
00:21:12,897 --> 00:21:14,941
It turns out I messed that up, too.
465
00:21:14,943 --> 00:21:16,814
Now I'm, like, dead to him.
466
00:21:20,157 --> 00:21:22,889
Oh, my God, Cecil, I am... I'm so sorry.
467
00:21:22,892 --> 00:21:24,559
- I shouldn't have said that.
- No.
468
00:21:24,561 --> 00:21:27,649
No, no, it's okay. Hey...
469
00:21:27,651 --> 00:21:29,564
you gotta go easy on yourself.
470
00:21:29,566 --> 00:21:31,195
How?
471
00:21:31,198 --> 00:21:32,555
The day I'm having?
472
00:21:32,558 --> 00:21:35,830
I feel like I might as well
just gamble my per diem away
473
00:21:35,833 --> 00:21:37,616
at the craps table with Grandma Runk.
474
00:21:37,618 --> 00:21:39,835
I mean, Tech Con's paying
in cryptocurrency this year,
475
00:21:39,837 --> 00:21:41,185
which barely feels like real money,
476
00:21:41,187 --> 00:21:42,648
even though it totally is.
477
00:21:45,104 --> 00:21:47,889
What if the Royal Flush
Gang didn't change their MO?
478
00:21:48,835 --> 00:21:50,273
Chester, can we find out
479
00:21:50,276 --> 00:21:53,935
if any STAR City casinos
also take cryptocurrency?
480
00:21:53,938 --> 00:21:55,288
Yeah.
481
00:21:57,377 --> 00:21:59,942
Hot damn. Turns out they all do,
482
00:21:59,944 --> 00:22:02,380
'cause they'll happily take
your money however they can.
483
00:22:02,382 --> 00:22:04,035
And check this out.
484
00:22:05,733 --> 00:22:09,822
These casinos have over 50
mil in their digital coffers.
485
00:22:09,824 --> 00:22:11,867
So what exactly would
the Royal Flush Gang need
486
00:22:11,869 --> 00:22:13,608
to pull off a heist like this?
487
00:22:13,610 --> 00:22:16,289
A computer with a
next-level microchip...
488
00:22:18,137 --> 00:22:20,484
A massive power source to run it...
489
00:22:22,576 --> 00:22:26,143
And an expert in cyber
espionage to execute the hack.
490
00:22:28,582 --> 00:22:31,757
They didn't change their MO.
491
00:22:31,759 --> 00:22:33,064
They just leveled up.
492
00:22:35,328 --> 00:22:36,892
Okay, how do we stop them?
493
00:22:36,894 --> 00:22:38,285
The second the hack starts,
494
00:22:38,287 --> 00:22:39,939
I can trace it and ping the location.
495
00:22:39,941 --> 00:22:41,290
And I'll be ready.
496
00:22:46,774 --> 00:22:49,296
So it's all done?
497
00:22:49,298 --> 00:22:50,614
Transfer completed.
498
00:22:50,617 --> 00:22:52,604
Who wants to be a millionaire?
499
00:22:52,606 --> 00:22:54,432
I do.
500
00:22:54,434 --> 00:22:56,651
Exactly, and since more people
501
00:22:56,653 --> 00:22:59,263
means smaller shares for us...
502
00:22:59,265 --> 00:23:01,354
Someone's out of chips.
503
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,391
What the hell, man?
504
00:23:04,394 --> 00:23:07,401
We planned this for years,
and now you're gonna kill me?
505
00:23:07,403 --> 00:23:10,709
Of course not.
506
00:23:10,711 --> 00:23:12,148
Jack is.
507
00:23:12,151 --> 00:23:13,320
I'm all in.
508
00:23:16,630 --> 00:23:18,064
It's over, people.
509
00:23:18,066 --> 00:23:19,805
Haywood's back in Iron Heights.
510
00:23:19,807 --> 00:23:21,285
Who wants to go next?
511
00:23:21,287 --> 00:23:24,505
Ah, usually, I know when to fold them.
512
00:23:24,507 --> 00:23:29,075
You know 50 million... it's a
lot to leave on the virtual table.
513
00:23:29,077 --> 00:23:31,773
And since my Queen is a
psychic who knows everything
514
00:23:31,775 --> 00:23:33,688
you're going to do before you do it,
515
00:23:33,690 --> 00:23:38,084
go ahead, Flash, we call.
516
00:23:38,086 --> 00:23:41,305
Four to one, I like these odds.
517
00:23:41,307 --> 00:23:45,309
Go ahead, Flash-y,
pick a card, any card.
518
00:23:47,226 --> 00:23:50,488
Execute a full house
maneuver, all of you, now.
519
00:24:22,217 --> 00:24:23,260
Hey, bud.
520
00:24:26,700 --> 00:24:29,527
What? This is impossible.
521
00:24:29,529 --> 00:24:32,181
I read your mind. I saw
what you were planning,
522
00:24:32,183 --> 00:24:34,096
and then I trumped your
hand by going all in.
523
00:24:34,098 --> 00:24:36,360
- How did you...
- You can read minds.
524
00:24:36,362 --> 00:24:37,970
I can think at super speed.
525
00:24:37,972 --> 00:24:39,754
Your thoughts... after I read them,
526
00:24:39,756 --> 00:24:41,713
you reshuffled the deck.
527
00:24:41,715 --> 00:24:43,584
I guess the house doesn't always win.
528
00:24:49,508 --> 00:24:51,636
I'm so sorry, folks.
529
00:24:51,638 --> 00:24:53,855
I know today did not go as planned,
530
00:24:53,857 --> 00:24:56,641
but the rocky road of
science will not stop me
531
00:24:56,643 --> 00:24:59,600
from bringing you the best
Tech Con coverage ever.
532
00:24:59,602 --> 00:25:01,167
- I...
- Hey, Chester, you left
533
00:25:01,170 --> 00:25:02,789
before I could thank you for helping...
534
00:25:02,792 --> 00:25:06,171
Yo, yo, it... it's my fellow
science geek, CSI Barry Allen.
535
00:25:06,174 --> 00:25:07,347
- Hi.
- Good to see you, man.
536
00:25:07,349 --> 00:25:08,740
- Good to see you.
- Yes.
537
00:25:08,742 --> 00:25:11,438
- So ixnay on the ashFlay.
- Yeah.
538
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,179
Thanks for coming to
my livestream, dude.
539
00:25:13,181 --> 00:25:14,180
- For sure.
- And this is
540
00:25:14,182 --> 00:25:16,051
his first Tech Con ever.
541
00:25:16,053 --> 00:25:17,270
- Somehow that's true.
- Yeah.
542
00:25:17,272 --> 00:25:19,185
- Yeah, so Barr.
- Yeah.
543
00:25:19,187 --> 00:25:21,883
- How awesome is all this?
- Oh, it's pretty awesome.
544
00:25:21,886 --> 00:25:23,885
Have you seen the Magnus
Labs' Saturn Simulation?
545
00:25:23,887 --> 00:25:27,367
- Oh, dude, I was in it.
- You can get in it?
546
00:25:27,369 --> 00:25:28,555
Hey, Ray.
547
00:25:28,558 --> 00:25:30,109
Hey, this is legacy honoree Ray Palmer.
548
00:25:30,111 --> 00:25:31,632
Hey, come say hi.
549
00:25:31,635 --> 00:25:32,986
Have you seen some of these displays?
550
00:25:32,988 --> 00:25:34,634
Yeah, I mean, the imagination on display
551
00:25:34,637 --> 00:25:36,477
is just stellar. Hey, Chester...
552
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,552
Welcome to my livestream, Mr. Palmer.
553
00:25:38,554 --> 00:25:41,860
But hey, it's been a great
first day of webcasting.
554
00:25:41,862 --> 00:25:43,775
So how about we take a break?
555
00:25:43,777 --> 00:25:45,516
Good, good 'cause then
we can talk about...
556
00:25:45,518 --> 00:25:47,082
See you in ten, party people.
557
00:25:47,084 --> 00:25:48,823
- Hold this, please.
- Okay.
558
00:25:48,825 --> 00:25:50,434
Talk about what happened earlier.
559
00:25:50,436 --> 00:25:52,436
See ya.
560
00:25:52,438 --> 00:25:55,179
Well, he's not avoiding me.
561
00:25:56,659 --> 00:25:59,225
Chester surprised me
earlier with a pitch fest
562
00:25:59,227 --> 00:26:03,142
to mentor aspiring
scientists in the intention
563
00:26:03,144 --> 00:26:04,970
of forming a startup with one of them.
564
00:26:04,972 --> 00:26:06,667
I... that sounds great.
565
00:26:06,669 --> 00:26:09,063
And it would've been before, but I...
566
00:26:10,368 --> 00:26:12,585
I've grown a lot the last few months.
567
00:26:12,588 --> 00:26:14,545
So you don't miss any of this?
568
00:26:14,547 --> 00:26:16,547
I'm still a scientist, Barry.
569
00:26:17,573 --> 00:26:20,288
But, you know, if I start
another big tech company,
570
00:26:20,291 --> 00:26:24,468
next thing I know, I get
lost in all this again.
571
00:26:24,470 --> 00:26:26,818
This is all so intoxicating,
572
00:26:26,820 --> 00:26:29,560
and I... I don't want to
fall back into the trap.
573
00:26:29,562 --> 00:26:32,040
I get that, but,
574
00:26:32,042 --> 00:26:33,912
I mean, I'm not the same that I was
575
00:26:33,914 --> 00:26:35,828
the first time I put on the cowl either.
576
00:26:35,831 --> 00:26:37,787
You know I'm faster, more confident,
577
00:26:37,790 --> 00:26:39,526
more at ease with myself.
578
00:26:39,528 --> 00:26:41,398
Yeah, you've grown too.
579
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,547
Yeah but one of the ways that's happened
580
00:26:43,550 --> 00:26:46,820
is learning to take time out
to help Team Flash grow, too.
581
00:26:46,823 --> 00:26:48,621
Yeah, I've learned
just as much from them
582
00:26:48,624 --> 00:26:49,875
as they've learned from me.
583
00:26:49,878 --> 00:26:51,755
It's like being a CSI, every day I work
584
00:26:51,758 --> 00:26:54,587
with all my fellow
officers in all departments.
585
00:26:57,510 --> 00:27:01,775
I mean, I do miss
scientific collaboration.
586
00:27:02,769 --> 00:27:05,944
Just like I told Chester,
I'm not a Legend anymore,
587
00:27:05,946 --> 00:27:08,512
and, uh, I don't have the CCPD.
588
00:27:08,514 --> 00:27:10,557
So what?
589
00:27:10,559 --> 00:27:14,169
You're Ray Palmer, legacy honoree.
590
00:27:14,171 --> 00:27:17,348
If you want something that
doesn't exist, invent it.
591
00:27:34,931 --> 00:27:38,367
This copy is damn well-written.
592
00:27:38,369 --> 00:27:41,762
What exactly are you looking for?
593
00:27:41,764 --> 00:27:43,895
If you even know.
594
00:27:43,897 --> 00:27:46,463
Look, these stories aren't bad.
595
00:27:46,465 --> 00:27:48,900
They're well-sourced, thorough,
596
00:27:48,902 --> 00:27:54,340
but CCC Media is about more
than just providing facts.
597
00:27:54,342 --> 00:27:56,429
It's the voice of the people,
598
00:27:56,431 --> 00:27:59,432
which means it needs to
have something to say.
599
00:27:59,434 --> 00:28:02,174
It's literally the opposite
of objective journalism.
600
00:28:02,176 --> 00:28:04,483
How about we leave the
editorializing to Iris?
601
00:28:05,484 --> 00:28:07,527
Okay, it's right there in the name,
602
00:28:07,529 --> 00:28:09,357
"Central City Citizen."
603
00:28:10,576 --> 00:28:13,577
Yeah, you guys landed some
pretty major interviews,
604
00:28:13,579 --> 00:28:17,276
but every person's voice in
this city deserves to be heard,
605
00:28:17,278 --> 00:28:20,018
not just the most famous
or high-profiled ones.
606
00:28:20,020 --> 00:28:21,628
So what, we're not even supposed to talk
607
00:28:21,630 --> 00:28:23,500
to the DA or the mayor anymore?
608
00:28:23,502 --> 00:28:25,109
Yes, talk to them,
609
00:28:25,112 --> 00:28:28,591
but then go talk to the janitor
who cleans the mayor's office
610
00:28:28,594 --> 00:28:32,770
or a mom working two jobs
just to pay her bills,
611
00:28:32,772 --> 00:28:35,163
because corruption in this city...
612
00:28:35,165 --> 00:28:37,109
It affects them more than anyone.
613
00:28:38,517 --> 00:28:39,646
Don't you guys see?
614
00:28:39,648 --> 00:28:41,692
When we're at our best,
615
00:28:41,694 --> 00:28:45,719
our readers see themselves
reflected in our stories.
616
00:28:47,874 --> 00:28:50,788
So try again,
617
00:28:50,791 --> 00:28:54,795
but this time, remember
who you're writing for.
618
00:29:05,195 --> 00:29:07,631
You've already accomplished so much,
619
00:29:07,633 --> 00:29:10,625
and now you're a CCTC legacy honoree.
620
00:29:11,724 --> 00:29:14,072
What's next for you? Retirement?
621
00:29:14,074 --> 00:29:16,770
Uh...
622
00:29:16,773 --> 00:29:20,243
Well, honestly, I...
623
00:29:22,996 --> 00:29:24,345
I'm not sure.
624
00:29:25,912 --> 00:29:27,955
That question's come
up for me a lot today.
625
00:29:27,957 --> 00:29:30,871
And, uh, you know I have been
doing a ton of research lately,
626
00:29:30,873 --> 00:29:34,919
but I also don't want to
repeat my previous achievements.
627
00:29:34,921 --> 00:29:36,414
So um...
628
00:29:36,417 --> 00:29:38,662
I guess I'm having
conflicting thoughts about it.
629
00:29:38,664 --> 00:29:40,666
It's a... it's a tough decision.
630
00:29:42,537 --> 00:29:44,102
So you know what?
631
00:29:44,104 --> 00:29:47,627
Maybe... maybe we should
all find out together
632
00:29:47,629 --> 00:29:48,715
next year.
633
00:29:54,244 --> 00:29:56,227
Okay, and on that note,
634
00:29:56,230 --> 00:29:58,420
let's thank Ray Palmer
for joining us today.
635
00:30:07,649 --> 00:30:09,562
You all should run.
636
00:30:14,134 --> 00:30:16,177
While you still can.
637
00:30:18,225 --> 00:30:19,659
Everybody, go.
638
00:30:19,661 --> 00:30:20,770
Go.
639
00:30:24,753 --> 00:30:28,973
Flash, don't make this difficult.
640
00:30:28,975 --> 00:30:31,366
Show yourself.
641
00:30:33,936 --> 00:30:36,545
I'm not gonna let you hurt anyone.
642
00:30:36,547 --> 00:30:38,504
Why don't you tell me
what it is you want?
643
00:30:38,506 --> 00:30:39,638
Of course.
644
00:30:40,943 --> 00:30:44,031
I came a long way to find you, Flash.
645
00:30:44,033 --> 00:30:47,813
Now that I have...
646
00:30:47,816 --> 00:30:49,464
I'm going to kill you.
647
00:30:55,429 --> 00:30:57,037
Whoever you are,
648
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,133
if you're looking for
a fight, you found one.
649
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:04,878
Oh, snap.
650
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,750
Time to let Flash do what he does best
651
00:31:06,752 --> 00:31:07,925
and kick some butt.
652
00:31:07,927 --> 00:31:11,319
You're nothing like I expected,
653
00:31:11,321 --> 00:31:13,104
not that it matters.
654
00:31:13,106 --> 00:31:16,542
Those who were once good
655
00:31:16,544 --> 00:31:18,285
die just as easily.
656
00:31:31,733 --> 00:31:33,254
Okay, well, that's not good.
657
00:31:33,256 --> 00:31:35,125
- What is that thing?
- Oh, I'm picking up
658
00:31:35,128 --> 00:31:36,911
some seriously advanced tech readings.
659
00:31:36,914 --> 00:31:38,523
You just had that thing
in your back pocket?
660
00:31:38,525 --> 00:31:40,656
Oh, no. I just picked
it up from right there.
661
00:31:40,659 --> 00:31:42,833
Oh, yeah. Tech Con, right.
662
00:31:42,836 --> 00:31:44,669
I think Barry's going
to need a helping hand.
663
00:31:44,672 --> 00:31:46,137
Wait, what?
664
00:31:46,139 --> 00:31:48,619
Like a superhero team-up with the Atom?
665
00:31:49,789 --> 00:31:51,055
What changed your mind?
666
00:31:54,103 --> 00:31:56,800
My friends... An old
one and a new one...
667
00:31:56,803 --> 00:31:58,328
But I'm still not a Legend.
668
00:31:59,587 --> 00:32:01,152
Yeah, you're a hell of a lot more.
669
00:32:23,132 --> 00:32:25,263
I was born amongst the stars, Flash.
670
00:32:25,265 --> 00:32:27,918
Trapping me in a vacuum in pointless.
671
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,354
Now, surrender,
672
00:32:29,356 --> 00:32:31,878
and I promise you won't suffer.
673
00:32:35,231 --> 00:32:37,405
And the suit still fits.
674
00:32:37,407 --> 00:32:38,842
Hey, you been working out?
675
00:32:38,844 --> 00:32:40,974
Yeah, thank you for noticing.
676
00:32:42,543 --> 00:32:43,969
- All right, you ready?
- Yeah.
677
00:32:48,635 --> 00:32:50,940
Flash, Atom, who are you firing at?
678
00:32:50,943 --> 00:32:52,591
Yeah, yeah, he's right behind you.
679
00:33:04,085 --> 00:33:06,651
Now I know how Diggle feels.
680
00:33:06,654 --> 00:33:08,088
This guy isn't just strong,
681
00:33:08,090 --> 00:33:09,786
I think he's messing with our minds.
682
00:33:09,788 --> 00:33:12,571
Correct. This isn't your fight, Atom.
683
00:33:12,573 --> 00:33:14,573
Now, leave while you still can.
684
00:33:14,575 --> 00:33:16,793
Everyone has a weakness.
685
00:33:16,795 --> 00:33:18,098
I'll keep him occupied.
686
00:33:37,337 --> 00:33:40,817
You can't fool me with
a speed mirage, Flash.
687
00:33:40,819 --> 00:33:42,993
My mind is too powerful.
688
00:33:42,995 --> 00:33:46,083
Wait, you said I was good once.
689
00:33:46,085 --> 00:33:47,911
What happened to me?
690
00:33:47,913 --> 00:33:50,087
You owe me that.
691
00:33:50,089 --> 00:33:51,740
As you wish.
692
00:33:56,443 --> 00:33:59,487
Bear witness to a coming Armageddon
693
00:33:59,489 --> 00:34:02,356
that you create ten years from now,
694
00:34:02,359 --> 00:34:05,756
one that destroys your own planet.
695
00:34:07,454 --> 00:34:09,149
It already happened, Flash.
696
00:34:09,151 --> 00:34:11,938
That's why I, Despero, have to kill you.
697
00:34:13,199 --> 00:34:15,288
It's how I save our world.
698
00:34:26,953 --> 00:34:30,652
No!
699
00:34:31,957 --> 00:34:34,435
- Man, whatever you did...
- Anytime, Flash.
700
00:34:34,437 --> 00:34:35,959
- Hey.
- Hey, you guys okay?
701
00:34:35,961 --> 00:34:37,003
Yeah.
702
00:34:37,005 --> 00:34:38,613
Where'd that thing go?
703
00:34:38,615 --> 00:34:40,487
I don't know.
704
00:34:47,326 --> 00:34:49,239
Barry, you know you're not destined
705
00:34:49,242 --> 00:34:50,625
to destroy the world, right?
706
00:34:50,627 --> 00:34:52,177
Yeah, I know, but the visions
707
00:34:52,180 --> 00:34:54,412
Despero showed me seemed so real,
708
00:34:54,414 --> 00:34:56,008
and he said, our world.
709
00:34:56,011 --> 00:34:57,719
But what does that even mean?
710
00:34:57,721 --> 00:34:59,406
I don't know, yet.
711
00:34:59,409 --> 00:35:01,114
What if he's mind-punking you?
712
00:35:01,116 --> 00:35:02,724
Like how he made you and Ray see
713
00:35:02,726 --> 00:35:05,118
an illusion during your fight.
714
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:06,598
I don't think he was.
715
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,633
Every test I've run on Barry shows
716
00:35:08,636 --> 00:35:11,080
that he's completely fine,
mentally and physically.
717
00:35:11,083 --> 00:35:12,789
Well, I scanned the residual feelings
718
00:35:12,792 --> 00:35:14,910
that Despero left
behind inside your mind,
719
00:35:14,913 --> 00:35:18,697
and there was no doubt
Despero was telling the truth.
720
00:35:18,699 --> 00:35:20,568
He really did see those things.
721
00:35:20,570 --> 00:35:22,028
Which means everyone's in danger.
722
00:35:22,031 --> 00:35:23,141
No.
723
00:35:23,144 --> 00:35:25,530
No, there's no way that you're
the bad guy in this situation.
724
00:35:25,532 --> 00:35:28,098
What we need to do right
now is find out the truth.
725
00:35:28,100 --> 00:35:30,056
I have a bad feeling it's gonna find us
726
00:35:30,058 --> 00:35:33,224
once Despero gets back
from wherever Ray sent him.
727
00:35:33,227 --> 00:35:34,891
Yeah, well,
728
00:35:34,894 --> 00:35:37,149
the tech inside his belt was so complex,
729
00:35:37,152 --> 00:35:39,457
I could barely recognize
the navigation system.
730
00:35:39,459 --> 00:35:41,981
So instead of sending him
to a specific location,
731
00:35:41,983 --> 00:35:43,461
I tried a random setting.
732
00:35:43,463 --> 00:35:45,060
Who knows where he went?
733
00:35:45,063 --> 00:35:46,464
Or when he's coming back.
734
00:35:46,466 --> 00:35:49,958
Barr, how do we beat a
ten-foot-tall red alien
735
00:35:49,961 --> 00:35:53,297
who thinks like Grodd
and punches like Fuerza?
736
00:35:53,299 --> 00:35:55,734
By figuring out what
kind of alien he is.
737
00:35:55,736 --> 00:35:58,041
Get that, you may have some idea
738
00:35:58,043 --> 00:35:59,477
of what his weaknesses are.
739
00:35:59,479 --> 00:36:01,531
- Like Kryptonians...
- And kryptonite.
740
00:36:01,534 --> 00:36:03,567
Great idea. I'll call
Alex in National City.
741
00:36:03,570 --> 00:36:04,969
Yeah, so what do we do?
742
00:36:04,972 --> 00:36:07,440
Well, he took our best
shots like they were nothing.
743
00:36:07,443 --> 00:36:10,401
- We need to be ready.
- For what?
744
00:36:10,404 --> 00:36:11,971
The fight of our lives.
745
00:36:16,626 --> 00:36:17,992
Iris,
746
00:36:17,995 --> 00:36:19,594
this account of Despero
747
00:36:19,597 --> 00:36:22,107
fighting Flash and Atom is amazing.
748
00:36:22,110 --> 00:36:23,631
Is Barry okay?
749
00:36:23,633 --> 00:36:26,156
Yeah, it's just, Despero
750
00:36:26,158 --> 00:36:29,115
is like no one we've ever faced before.
751
00:36:29,117 --> 00:36:30,334
Any notes?
752
00:36:30,336 --> 00:36:33,250
Just one. Publish this now.
753
00:36:33,252 --> 00:36:35,141
People need to read it.
754
00:36:35,144 --> 00:36:36,625
You saw everything and survived.
755
00:36:36,628 --> 00:36:38,406
The city needs to know it can too.
756
00:36:39,388 --> 00:36:41,954
By the way, I read the revised articles
757
00:36:41,956 --> 00:36:44,130
that you had Vanya,
Aariz, and Taylor write.
758
00:36:44,132 --> 00:36:45,827
And?
759
00:36:45,829 --> 00:36:47,960
We're going straight to
print with all of them.
760
00:36:49,472 --> 00:36:51,616
Whatever you did to inspire
quality work like this,
761
00:36:51,618 --> 00:36:53,052
it must've gotten through.
762
00:36:53,054 --> 00:36:55,011
Thank God,
763
00:36:55,013 --> 00:36:57,970
but they're still not happy with me.
764
00:36:57,972 --> 00:37:00,103
Hmm, welcome to management.
765
00:37:04,326 --> 00:37:06,411
Are you sure you don't
need me to stick around?
766
00:37:06,414 --> 00:37:07,545
Nora can handle any
767
00:37:07,548 --> 00:37:09,041
supernatural emergencies while I'm gone.
768
00:37:09,043 --> 00:37:11,244
And like you said, Despero
could come back at any minute.
769
00:37:11,246 --> 00:37:12,637
It's okay, we're on it.
770
00:37:12,639 --> 00:37:14,813
And if Despero comes back again...
771
00:37:14,815 --> 00:37:17,120
The Atom will embiggen. Yeah?
772
00:37:17,122 --> 00:37:18,686
No? All right.
773
00:37:18,688 --> 00:37:20,601
- Keep working on that one.
- No, it...
774
00:37:20,603 --> 00:37:23,126
Chester, what you did
back there at Jitters...
775
00:37:23,128 --> 00:37:24,602
It was a huge mistake, I know.
776
00:37:24,605 --> 00:37:26,606
Was the best gift possible.
777
00:37:26,609 --> 00:37:28,957
Between that and helping
Barry again as the Atom,
778
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,517
I have now realized that there is
779
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,308
a middle ground to this
whole balance thing,
780
00:37:32,311 --> 00:37:34,883
which is why I want to return the favor.
781
00:37:34,886 --> 00:37:38,053
So what if I created a
non-profit organization
782
00:37:38,056 --> 00:37:40,810
to fund young scientists,
like your Jitters friends?
783
00:37:40,813 --> 00:37:43,798
That would be awesome.
784
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:45,757
Great. I was thinking I could call it,
785
00:37:45,759 --> 00:37:48,281
the Quincy P. Runk
Foundation, if that's okay.
786
00:37:48,283 --> 00:37:49,891
Barry told me about your father.
787
00:37:54,855 --> 00:37:56,857
Oh.
788
00:37:59,642 --> 00:38:01,642
Uh, yeah if you ever need,
789
00:38:01,644 --> 00:38:03,514
like, a consultant
or anything like that.
790
00:38:03,516 --> 00:38:04,691
I know who to call.
791
00:38:07,563 --> 00:38:09,346
Oh and Barry,
792
00:38:09,348 --> 00:38:11,739
there's one sure way to prove to Despero
793
00:38:11,741 --> 00:38:13,176
that you'd never destroy the world.
794
00:38:13,178 --> 00:38:14,612
What's that?
795
00:38:14,614 --> 00:38:17,267
Just show him who you really are,
796
00:38:17,269 --> 00:38:19,225
like you do with this
team each and every day.
797
00:38:31,326 --> 00:38:34,414
Barry, we got an alien
signal coming in hot.
798
00:38:34,416 --> 00:38:36,416
Barry, are you sure about this?
799
00:38:36,418 --> 00:38:38,422
Yeah, it's like Ray said,
800
00:38:38,425 --> 00:38:40,077
the only way to convince Despero
801
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:41,987
I'm not a threat is to
show him who I really am.
802
00:38:45,949 --> 00:38:48,298
Prepare to die, Flash.
803
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:50,343
Every life ends sooner or later.
804
00:38:50,345 --> 00:38:52,727
Wise words from a dead man.
805
00:38:52,730 --> 00:38:54,434
Despero, I'm not gonna fight you again.
806
00:38:54,436 --> 00:38:56,915
Really? I'm disappointed.
807
00:38:56,917 --> 00:39:00,005
Striking down a defenseless foe?
808
00:39:00,007 --> 00:39:01,883
Well, there's no pleasure in that.
809
00:39:01,886 --> 00:39:03,279
So you enjoy killing?
810
00:39:06,231 --> 00:39:09,884
Twist my words at you own risk.
811
00:39:09,886 --> 00:39:13,716
You wanted to kill me.
I'm not running anywhere.
812
00:39:19,287 --> 00:39:20,723
Then neither am I.
813
00:39:22,464 --> 00:39:25,073
In another time, on another world,
814
00:39:25,075 --> 00:39:27,861
we could've fought
side by side, you and I.
815
00:39:29,030 --> 00:39:31,296
There's great strength in you, Flash,
816
00:39:31,299 --> 00:39:34,344
but I've seen your future.
817
00:39:34,346 --> 00:39:38,086
The lives you take, the
betrayals you revel in.
818
00:39:38,088 --> 00:39:40,698
You're the most dangerous kind of killer
819
00:39:40,700 --> 00:39:43,831
because you hide in the body of a hero.
820
00:39:43,833 --> 00:39:46,530
I'm not a killer.
821
00:39:46,532 --> 00:39:48,314
I'm not whatever you think I am.
822
00:39:48,316 --> 00:39:50,925
I can prove it if you
let me show you the truth.
823
00:39:50,927 --> 00:39:53,276
Or you can take an innocent life
824
00:39:53,278 --> 00:39:55,278
just to prove you're right.
825
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,107
You're either very stupid or very brave.
826
00:39:59,109 --> 00:40:00,979
I can't decide which.
827
00:40:00,981 --> 00:40:03,416
Well, find out. Scan my mind.
828
00:40:03,418 --> 00:40:05,418
See for yourself, then decide.
829
00:40:12,166 --> 00:40:14,342
I see no deception in your mind.
830
00:40:16,066 --> 00:40:18,068
But I do see truth.
831
00:40:20,261 --> 00:40:22,307
And honor.
832
00:40:24,309 --> 00:40:27,571
Flash, you're asking me to risk allowing
833
00:40:27,573 --> 00:40:30,125
the future I've already
witnessed to unfold.
834
00:40:31,881 --> 00:40:33,274
I'm sorry.
835
00:40:34,710 --> 00:40:36,724
But there's too many lives at stake.
836
00:40:36,727 --> 00:40:38,364
Don't you see?
837
00:40:38,366 --> 00:40:40,410
This is why I came back.
838
00:40:40,412 --> 00:40:43,761
This is the purpose I swore to uphold.
839
00:40:43,763 --> 00:40:45,460
What if you're wrong about me?
840
00:40:47,549 --> 00:40:51,814
I've spent my entire life
protecting this world.
841
00:40:52,946 --> 00:40:54,511
All I'm asking for is a chance to prove
842
00:40:54,513 --> 00:40:55,817
I'd never turn my back on it.
843
00:40:55,820 --> 00:40:57,557
Why should I believe you?
844
00:41:03,261 --> 00:41:05,609
Because my name's Barry Allen,
845
00:41:05,611 --> 00:41:07,787
and I've nothing to hide.
846
00:41:09,397 --> 00:41:11,922
Your boldness impresses me, Flash...
847
00:41:13,662 --> 00:41:16,143
And it's earned you a stay of execution.
848
00:41:17,412 --> 00:41:20,413
You now have seven Earth days
to prove that you won't become
849
00:41:20,416 --> 00:41:23,147
the monster I've already
witnessed in the future.
850
00:41:23,150 --> 00:41:25,591
If you can't convince me in that time,
851
00:41:25,594 --> 00:41:29,197
or if I find any trace
of a darker nature,
852
00:41:29,199 --> 00:41:32,072
I will end your existence.
853
00:41:43,289 --> 00:41:48,883
