What if...

What if I just, like,
breach all three

of the bus metas to,
like, Earth-2?

How about this?

We alter each bus meta's DNA

by performing
inter-cellular surgery?

And what,
turn them into chickens?

Yeah.

We're not Frankenstein-ing
innocent people.

Listen, Ramon.

DeVoe wants these bodies.

Maybe we change the bodies,
we keep these people safe.

I'm sorry.
Don't you have like six PhDs?

-Seven.
-Yeah, which one of them

is in mad science?

Mad science is just
an area of study.

It's not a degree. Okay?
And by the way,

I don't see you coming up
with any other ideas.

You know why? 'Cause it's
bedtime over here on Earth-1.

Do you know what bedtime is?
Do they have that on Earth-2?

-Bedtime--
-It's this thing where we just

-shut down to recharge our batteries.
-Oh, my gosh.

I highly recommend it.

[beeping]

-Harry.
-You're still here? What?

-No matter what you think,
-[sighs]

DeVoe has already thought of it.

So why don't you just go home,

recharge, start again
in the morning, all right?

I'm gonna keep going.

-[beeping]
-[sighs]

Good night.

Maybe you have
thought of everything.

[beeping]

Just like Thawne.

What is all this?

[Harrison] This is gonna give us the edge

we finally need to be smarter than DeVoe.

Or for me to be smarter
than DeVoe, actually.

Take a look at this.

[Cisco] What is that?

This is an intelligence booster.

You put this thing
on Dibny here,

and even he will be able

to understand
Poinsot's Construction.

You put it on a real genius,

I'll finally be able
to out-think the Thinker.

You know what?
I'm not sure this "thinking cap"

is the best idea
you've ever had.

It's an intelligence booster.

Looks like a thinking cap.

You don't like it,
blame yourself.

-You gave me the idea.
-What?

You're the one that said

DeVoe planned all this just like
Thawne in order to stop Barry,

and you said that DeVoe became
the Thinker the same night

you became the Flash and so

I hacked into the security
footage of that night to see

how he did it.

This is why he is so smart.

DeVoe boosted his intelligence

with neurochemical engineering

powered by the dark energy from

the Particle Accelerator explosion,

and if we build our own,
we can do the exact same.

Wait. You want to
blast your brain

with 10 billion joules
of dark energy?

I've harnessed energy from the
Particle Accelerator explosion

before, and I can do it again.

Yeah, but Harry, re-engineering

your brain's
neurochemistry, that's--

DeVoe did it.

So can I.

How many more metas have to die

before we finally stop DeVoe?

Uh... Not me. I mean,

I say we go for it, right? Right, guys?

What do you think?

I say we explore it.

-Yeah, I agree.
-Ramon?

No, this is way too risky.

[Harrison] Of course it's risky,

but if we succeed,
we will save the lives

of the four remaining bus metas,

including a member of our team.

You're talking about
intense amounts of dark energy

going right into your brain,
right into that cap,

that turned
a mac-and-cheese-loving pacifist

into a homicidal maniac.

You put that cap on,
what's it gonna do to you?

I ran the numbers
dozens of times.

The math and the chemistry
check out. I can do this.

-I don't think you can.
-I can with your help.

Not this time.

All right, let's keep coming up
with more ways to solve this.

[Dibny] Just so I'm clear on this,

someone finally came up
with a way to stop

this La-Z-Boy-riding lunatic,

and we just might not do it?

That's really cool, guys.

-I got this one.
-[Barry] Yeah, thanks.

[sighs]

It's the only way.

I'm gonna do it
with or without his help.

[Iris West] Hey, Ralph.

Look, don't worry, okay?
We're gonna figure this out.

Yeah, everybody
keeps saying that,

and each time we almost
get DeVoe, he gets away.

Every time he gets away,

he's one step closer
to getting me.

Hey, that is not
going to happen.

Well, I can't take
that chance anymore, Iris.

So, if anyone needs me,
I will be downstairs

in my tiny guest quarters
until this is over.

There are still
three bus metas out there.

And we're gonna need your help
to find them and protect them.

Iris, the only person
I need to protect from now on

is good ol' Ralphy boy.

You are part of this team.

Yeah, and I'm the only one
with a body

that DeVoe is trying to snatch.

You don't have any concept

of how dangerous it is
for me out there.

Yes, I do.

How could you?

Because I am the leader
of this team.

Yeah, that's right. You are.

But you're always
back there, hiding,

safe and sound,

while the rest of us
are out in the field,

putting our lives on the line.

[music playing]

[baby cooing]

Hey, sorry I'm late.

Some drama in the Cortex.

-Thanks for the coffee.
-It's all good.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm, you know...

Cecile's in her third trimester,

so it's definitely
getting serious.

You guys have any names
picked out yet?

Uh, yeah, a few.

Come on,
I'm not gonna tell anybody.

No, you're not,
because you're not gonna know

until Cecile tells you.

-All right.
-Anyway,

I talked to Singh

about getting you
back in the lab.

Yeah, and?

It's gonna be a while.

Why? I thought

Judge Hankerson and Singh
had everything they needed.

We thought so, too,

but the Mayor wants to sit down
with the DeVoes herself.

Seriously?

Look, we can't find Marlize,

so the only chance we got

is to get Ralph to use his
nauseating powers

to impersonate DeVoe again.

I'll ask him, but right now

he'll barely leave
S.T.A.R. Labs.

What happened to that whole
buddy system thing you had going on?

It's not enough for him,
I guess.

[sighs] Then I don't know, Barr.

I should be out there,

helping people.
putting bad guys away.

Right now, we should be trying
to stop DeVoe

and finding those last few bus metas

'cause I got a bad feeling one
of them is gonna show up soon.

[man groaning]

[Frye] Next time, it'll be your hand.

Now,

everybody on the floor.

Dude, you got a death wish?
Do what he says.

[Matthew] Stealing is a sin.

You shouldn't be using

the powers you've
been given this way.

I'll use them any way I see fit,

including frying you to a crisp

if you move any closer.

Oh, I don't think you will.

You don't want to hurt me

or anyone in this bank.

You can still walk away
from this.

But the moment you
touch that money,

your life changes forever.

Now, you don't really
want that, do you?

Maybe you're right.

Or maybe you've got
a death wish.

What the hell?

My powers, they're gone.

No, no, no! [grunting]

[handcuffs clicking]

Hey, buddy, you're a real...

Hero.

[rapid beeping]

-Cisco.
-Mmm.

What have you got?

Oh, you know, [sighs] the usual.

Just loads and loads
of dark matter.

Makes sense. Eyewitnesses said
this guy melted this vault door

with fire from his hands.

Hmm. Figures. Not just any fire.

This fire melted through
10 inches of reinforced steel.

I mean, that would take over
6,000 degrees Fahrenheit,

ten times the thermal output
of Rory's heat gun.

Here's where it gets weirder.

Apparently, shortly after,
his powers stopped working.

"Stopped working"?

Yeah, so if he was one
of our bus metas,

I guess we have
one less to worry about.

How would his
powers stop working?

Erik Frye.

Six months ago,
were you on the 405 bus?

Please.

Do I look like someone
who takes public transit?

All right, then, Mr. Frye,

how long have you
had your powers?

A few years.

Oh. You're an OG meta.

And you just started
using them now?

Here, yeah.

Once Flash showed up,
I took this act on the road.

[scoffs] Doesn't matter anymore though.

Right, you don't
have your powers anymore.

-[device clicking]
-'Cause they just disappeared,

vanished into thin air? Huh?

All right, Cisco.

He's clear.

You have any idea
how this happened?

One minute, I had
powers. The next,

nothing.

Can you get him out of here?

That's right.
Get him out of here.

No rights?

Yeah, get him out of here.

I can't believe his powers
disappeared like that.

How does someone
lose their powers?

[Caitlin] So I can think of a couple of
ways this might have happened.

If this Erik Frye metastasizes
solar radiation to create heat,

we could put him in the dark
to de-power him.

But it was still broad daylight.

Okay, maybe his internal
biochemistry has been altered

to create its own internal
thermal combustion,

and he just ran out of fuel.

Okay, so if this guy is not one

of the bus metas,
then that means

there's still three
more out there

before DeVoe gets to me,

so I'm safe... Safer. I'm safer.

Those are innocent people,
Ralph.

I'm innocent.
I'm still gonna get terminated.

Oh, my God.

I'm Sarah Connor.

No. I'm gonna go back to my room,
get some comfort food.

Ralph.

The way I see it,

Frye walks into the bank
with his fire powers,

meets this other guy,

and then his powers are gone.

Coincidence, I think not.

So you think this guy
did something to Frye?

I think we can ask him
some questions.

I interviewed every eyewitness
in that bank.

Nobody knew who he was.

Cisco, why don't you cross-check
the deposits from today

-with Dad's witness list?
-[beeping]

Way ahead of you.
Everyone on the list checks out,

except Matthew Kim,

an EMT out of
Central City General.

Barr, let's go
ask some questions.

Oh, I'll go.

Barry, you can stay here.

Um...

Okay, I--

Well, you know, I never go out

into the field,
so I thought, you know...

Yeah, I mean, you're the boss.

Okay, uh, Caitlin, why don't you see

how this power-stealing
thing works,

and, Cisco, why don't you use

the satellite's tracking
parameters

to scan the city
for dark matter?

-[Cisco] Mmm-hmm.
-Okay.

I'll just come running,
if you need me.

Okay. Thanks.

[beeping]

[clears throat] Can I hang out in here?

[sighs] Can you...

Do you mind...
Can you save the eating till later?

We're actually trying
to save lives here.

[mumbling] This is really good though.

-[sighs] Is it?
-Yeah.

You put this together
pretty quick, huh?

Yes, I did, for a test run.

[beeping]

I can feel my neurons firing.

Firing at a rate
20 times their normal rate.

And that's without
the addition of dark matter.

I can feel my brain's
processing systems evolving.

There's a 67% chance

you're gonna spill
that mustard on the floor. Oh!

Okay, how did you do that?

Well, I simply
analyzed your eating habits

and extrapolated them into
a predictive behavior model,

all within four seconds.

The cap is working.

Eh. Cool, but not quite convinced.

No?
Really, you're not convinced?

All right, then.

The answer is none.

And have a little more respect
for your body, will you?

It's a veggie dog, man.

I'm not talking
about the veggie dog, man.

I'm talking about the wiping
the mustard on the pants,

causes the pant movement,
which indicates a lack

of clothing-to-bodily friction,
which can mean only one thing.

Right.

What kind of underwear
am I wearing?

And the answer

is none.

[clicks tongue] You got all that
from your fancy metal cap?

-Yes, I did.
-It's impressive, Harry.

Except for one very small thing.

Which is?

Your head is on fire.

[laughs] It's not--

[rapid beeping]

[sighs]

When I mentioned
spending more time together,

I meant family barbecues, not
questioning people of interest.

I know. I just

want people to know that
I'm not afraid

to go out in the field
every once in a while.

Who says you are?

-Ralph.
-Ralph?

He should talk. He won't
even leave the building.

I know, but he made me
wonder, you know,

what kind of leader constantly
puts everyone else's life

on the line, except their own?

[sighs] Baby.

We all know you're fearless.

Whenever you've been needed
on the field, you've gone.

So don't let Ralph
get in your head.

Excuse me.

CCPD. We're looking for an EMT
named Matthew Kim.

-Yes, he's right through there.
-There?

Thank you.

Matthew Kim.

Detective Joe West, CCPD.

We'd like to ask you
some questions

about the attack at
Central City Bank this morning.

I wouldn't know
anything about that.

Really? 'Cause I have
a dozen witnesses that saw you

stand up to the man
that melted the vault.

He was going to hurt people.

It was my duty to help them.

Any reason you left
without making a statement?

I need to finish
restocking my inventory

before another call comes in.

-I can't help you.
-Look, Matthew,

we know you had something to do
with the guy at the bank

losing his powers.

We need to know,
what did you do to him?

Why? So you can steal mine?

No. No.

-Let her go.
-Put the gun down.

I said, put it down.

-He didn't deserve those powers.
-[rapid beeping]

He was hurting people.

Flash.

You're not the only one
that's been blessed with powers.

I'm helping people, too.

Not like this.

You did this, not me.

I got him.

I lost my speed.

What do you mean,
you lost your speed?

Uh, guys, I think I found it.

[laughing] This is amazing.

Yeah, it is.

Well, I've run every test
I can think of.

EKG, cellular regression
synthesis, brain chemistry,

and dark matter confirms it.

Iris is a speedster.

So what about Barry?

[Caitlin] Um...

Everything that was
a part of you,

your speed, connection to the
Speed Force, the dark matter,

it's all a part of Iris now.

-Can you--
-Reverse it?

I don't know. I can try.

So Matthew Kim
isn't just removing DNA.

He's transferring it
to anybody he touches.

He's not getting rid of metas.
He's creating new ones.

Well, that's not the only thing.

Guess who's got an apartment
just a block away

from the 405 bus line and rides
it every day to get to work.

So Matthew is our bus meta,

not Frye, which means that
DeVoe is gonna come after him

sooner or later.

And if DeVoe
gets Matthew's abilities,

he could take away
all our powers.

Unless we get him
on our side first.

Then he can remove
the meta DNA from DeVoe.

-Would that work?
-I mean, yeah.

It could. As best I can tell,
Matthew's abilities

work by melting down
the highly concentrated bonds

between DNA.

That makes them totally pliable,

so he can extract them
and infuse somebody else

with the exact same meta DNA.

"Melting highly
concentrated bonds."

Melting Point.

Oh, yeah, I gotta write that down.

Okay, great,
so you guys figure out

how to get this
Mr. Melting Point

in the same room as DeVoe

and not get his brains
sucked out.

I'm gonna go get a couple of

bear claws
and go back to my room.

It's not Mr. Melting Point.
Look, it's just Melting Point.

You know, somebody out there has
Frye's fire powers right now.

We need to find them as much as
we need to find Matthew.

I'm on it.

And I'll see if there's a way
to reverse this.

[sighing] Well, until then, what do we do?

We train.

Okay.

[beeping]

[Harrison] Ramon.

[sighs] There you are.

What are you doing?

I'm updating some software.

Oh, good, so nothing.
Great. I need your help.

Try Ralph.

[scoffs] Ralph's useless,
all he does is eat.

[sighing] What do you want?

Do you have a micro-filament
compression wrench

with a cobalt-retrieving clamp?

Yeah.

Yeah, where is it?

Why? So you can work
on your death cap?

-Not a death cap.
-It's a death cap.

No, it isn't.

I hear there's plenty of tools
on Earth-2.

-Well, I'm on Earth-1.
-Oh, you need a lift?

-I'll breach you there right now.
-"I'll breach you there right now."

-That's not what I sound like.
-"That's not what I sound like."

Fine.

[sighs]

Cisco,
why can't you just help him?

Why am I the only one who thinks
putting a rageaholic

and dark matter together
is a bad idea?

He's trying to stop DeVoe.
That's not a bad idea.

He's trying to match
his intellect

with a madman whose innovations
are warping his brain.

Have you not seen Spider-Man 2?

-No.
-How can you live with yourself?

It might be dangerous,
but it also might work.

And we're kind of
running out of ideas.

Besides, Harry is gonna do this
whether you help him or not.

So maybe there's some way
to make this thinking cap

and to keep him safe.

She can move.

Uh-oh.

Hey, Iris.

-You might just want to--
-I can't slow down.

That's okay. All right, just
gradually ramp your speed down.

Otherwise, you're going to--

[grunts] Do that?

-Oh!
-[groaning]

Hey, you okay?

-Come here. Are you good?
-Yep. I'm straight. I'm straight.

Thank God for speed healing, huh?

-[exhales]
-Yeah.

[breathing heavily]

Hey, I know this
isn't easy on you.

Hey, I'm fine.

Barry.

I am. I...

I lost my speed.

I lost my job at the CCPD.

Just feels like DeVoe

is slowly taking
everything away from me.

He hasn't taken everything away.

What if I never get it back?

Hey.

Caitlin is gonna
find something. Okay?

Mmm-hmm.

[sighs]

Until then, you just have

to watch me like I've watched you
these last three years.

Yeah, I guess so.

[alarm blaring]

[exclaims] That's super annoying.

What's happened?

Baldwin Tower's on fire.
CCFD is responding,

but there's people on the top
floor they can't reach.

Okay, Caitlin,
Killer Frost is on fire duty,

Ralph, Cisco, suit up.

-Yeah.
-Not a chance.

This could just be a trap for
DeVoe to get us out in the open.

Hey, I think we got
a bigger problem.

We don't have a Flash anymore.

Yeah, we do.

I don't think she's ready
for all that. I mean, she...

You just got your powers.

[Iris West] Um...

No, I wanna do this.

Okay. Okay, all right,
we'll monitor from here then.

Okay, well, you can't
go out there wearing that.

Oh. Right.

Sorry, Caitlin.

Mask.

Right.

[sighs]

Thank you, Jesse Quick.

Nice.

Please be careful.

Guess you're on comms.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right.
How do I... How do I--

-Other monitor.
-Wrong monitor.

[grunts]

I'm here.

Oh, boy.

Okay, Iris,
there are five people

trapped on the 14th floor.

Just get them out of there
as fast as you can.

[breathing heavily]

I did it.

[Barry] Great work. Okay,
now you've got to get back in there

to put out the fire.

Right.

Guys, I'm here. What do I do?

You know what to do.
Use your arms.

Create a wind funnel, suck all
the oxygen out of the room.

And the fire'll go out.

Just like he's done
1,000 times.

You got this, girl.

It's making it worse.

She rotating her arms
the wrong way?

Go the opposite direction, okay?

[screams]

Iris, what was that?

Iris?

My leg is pinned. I can't move.

Okay, you have to
phase through it.

-What? I don't know how.
-[sighs]

You have to vibrate
your whole body. Okay?

You just... You have to feel it.

I can't. I can't move. I can't do it.

[Cisco] We're running out of time, Barry.

The integrity of
the room is failing.

The ceiling is gonna collapse.

Barry, the whole place
is going up.

[screams]

[gasping and coughing]

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Thank you.

There's still a little bit
of irritation in your lungs

from all the smoke
you inhaled last night,

but you should be
good to go soon.

Your leg is already healed.

We shouldn't have let her
go out there.

You weren't ready.

I saved a lot of people
last night, Ralph.

Yeah, and Cisco had to save you.

Look, we just need to make sure
this doesn't happen again.

We have to find Matthew Kim

and whoever he transferred
Eric Frye's powers to.

How close are you
to reversing this?

-I don't know that I can.
-What?

I was up all night trying
every conceivable solution.

Dark matter splicing,
pattern DNA cloning,

even regrowing meta-enhanced
stem material

on a cellular level.

Nothing will work.

I cannot replicate
Melting Point's powers.

So unless we find him
and get him

to reverse what he's done--

Iris is Team Speedster
on a permanent basis.

Great. [sighs] That's, uh, great.

I'm gonna go work on my will.

Ralph...

[Cisco] Harry.

Harry, I know you hear me.

Another team member hurt by one
of DeVoe's meta.

-I know.
-And we can fix it, but no!

-I know.
-You know what else?

Snow wasn't the only one
who was up all night working.

I was up all night working.

I'm almost done.
I'm almost finished.

-But you won't help me finish.
-I'm gonna help you finish.

-Finish--
-The thinking cap.

I'm gonna help you
finish the thinking cap.

It's an intelligence booster.

Actually, it's called
an intelligence booster.

Two conditions.

What are your conditions?

One, we stimulate your synapses
without using dark matter.

[sighs] Fine, no dark matter.

And two?

The minute you start acting like
Locutus of Borg

and start assimilating everybody
with your Borg chair--

You can vibe me
back to my Earth. Okay?

Okay.

Let's go.

Take it easy.

It's just day two.

[grunts]

[breathing heavily]

Oh, man.

You're right about running.

It's so peaceful.

So calming.
Actually makes it easy to think.

Look, you just got your speed.

You know that, right?

I don't think anyone'll
hold it against you

if you took a minute.

Maybe just let Cisco and
Caitlin handle this.

Just run point. Like always.

Just stay here like I always do?

No, you know I didn't mean that.

No, I know you didn't. I did.

Iris...

You think that...

What, that you need to prove

to the team
that you're not afraid?

No, not to all of you. To me.

-[sighs]
-Barry, when I was a reporter,

I was always in the field
putting myself in danger

for a story.

And after last year,

for some reason,
that just stopped.

Maybe it was because of Savitar,
maybe because

you were gone into
the Speed Force.

I don't know,

but I quit my job,

I joined this team,

and now for the most part, I just

stay here while all of you
are out there putting your lives

on the line.

-Because of our powers.
-No, it's not just that, Barry.

And it took me getting these
powers to realize it.

But now that
I'm the one that has it,

it's my turn to do what all of you
have been doing.

To prove to myself

that that fearlessness I had
is still in me.

[alarm blaring]

[Caitlin over comms] Guys, I think
we found Frye's missing powers.

Then go get 'em.

[Harrison sighs]

Satellite's tracking temperature
at the same intensity

-as the bank robbery. So--
-That's him.

-Yeah.
-[Dibny] So who's that?

Matthew Kim.

Kim's going to
try and steal his powers.

All right, let's go.

[Iris West] No!

You guys run point.

I can do this.

You sure about this?

I have to, Barry.

All right, but remember
he can't touch you,

or he'll take your powers away, too.

Right.

Also, I'm not sure my clothes
are gonna work this time.

I have a fix for that.

It's the best I could do
on such short notice, though.

Thanks, Cisco.

I got hangers.

All right, here we go.

Don't make us shoot you.
Stand down.

Oh, I don't think so, copper.

Not until I get my money.

[officers groaning]

[Matthew] This is a mistake.

[officer] Take him down now!
Take him down!

Hold your fire.

You need to stop this.

Oh, I just got going, pal.

Wait.

You're that hero
from the bank, aren't you?

I am.

And I need you to stop this.

So you can take my powers
like you did his?

I don't think so.

You just gave them to me.

What are you talking about?

[chuckling] You didn't know that?

When you took powers from him,
you gave them to me.

And now I'm gonna get
what he couldn't. Money!

I think you've done
enough saving for today.

I'll take it from here.

How about we just
end this right now?

[Birch] That sounds fun.

'Cause I was just warming up.

[Iris West grunts]

What's wrong?

Can't stand the heat?

All right, Iris,
we need you to run around him,

create a vortex.
The lack of oxygen should

extinguish the flame.

Can't get close to him.

Temperature is at 800 degrees.

Like how hot is that?

It's hot as lava.

Guys, we need a plan.

[Birch] Oh, I got a plan, lady!

It's called, "Give me my
money before I unleash hell"!

Yeah!

What the hell is that?

That is a thermal cyclone.

That fire is gonna get too close
to those apartments.

And thousands
of people will die.

What do we do?

We turn this thing on.

-Harry, no, don't.
-Iris needs answers.

-We haven't tested--
-She needs answers.

[Iris West] Come on, guys, what do I do?

Do it.

[beeping]

[Iris West] Barry, come on,
I need an answer!

Hang on, Iris. Hang on.

There are 4,827 ways this could
go, and all those ways will fail

except one. If Iris uses her
speed to draw enough water

from Central City Bay
into her wake,

she could extinguish that blaze.

You want her to create
a tidal wave?

It's our only hope.

Iris, I need you to run
as fast as you can.

-On the water.
-On the water? What?

Make sure, when you run,
you dig your heels in,

you move back and forth
in a tight formation.

Why?

So you drag as much water
ashore as possible,

put out the cyclone.

You want me to make a 100-foot
tidal wave? Are you crazy?

-I can't do that.
-Yes, you can.

You told me
that you used to be fearless.

I know that you still are.

You're the bravest person
that I know. You can do this.

I know you can. We all do.

Now, run, Iris. Run.

That's it.

That's it.
Now, tight formations, okay?

Tight formations.

That's it, Iris. Keep going. Keep going.

Everybody, back!

Move. Move, move, now!

Long live rock 'n' roll. [yells]

Yes!

Nice work.

She did it.

[groans]

[Joe] Nice work, Flash.

I'm so sorry I did this to you.

I thought I was
cleaning up the city,

but I was just making it worse.

We stopped him.

He's in Iron Heights,
and that's all that matters now.

You sure you both
want to do this?

It's your call.

I have to say,
running on water is really fun.

But if you guys will
have me back,

I'd love to get back behind
the console again.

-Of course.
-Please, and thank you.

You're ready?

-Yeah.
-Yeah. Let's see.

-Okay.
-All right, here?

Okay.

That's it?

You okay, baby girl?

I think so.

How about you, Flash?

[pants] I feel great.

[laughs] My boy's back.

Well, that's the last time
I'm using this power.

This city was almost destroyed
because of me.

But you had no idea
that would happen.

Yeah, don't be so hard
on yourself, pal.

I thought I was chosen
for a higher purpose.

This can't be the plan for me.

Maybe you were chosen
for a bigger one.

What do you mean?

The guy we mentioned,
Clifford DeVoe.

He isn't gonna stop until
he gets all the bus metas,

which means we have to stop him.

We could use all the help
we could get.

Are you sure
I can make a difference?

Absolutely.

DeVoe's shown weakness against
other bus metas in the past.

With your help,
we might actually have a chance.

How do we start?

I'll give you the tour.

All right.

[laughs] No offense, I like my powers.

[chuckles]

So, Barr,

you never made
your own tidal wave before.

No, I haven't.

You go, girl.

So what do you say? You want
to teach an old dog a new trick?

All right. Training, 6:00 a.m.?

Ooh. Don't be late.

-You got it, boss.
-Welcome back.

[Iris West] Hey, Ralph.

Hey.

You know, Matthew

is gonna need a buddy, too.

Well, that's, [sighs]

assuming he stays.

After he finds out that
DeVoe has gotten everyone

he's come after,

he'll be terrified.

Just like I am.

Look, Ralph. I know what
you're going through.

[sighs] No, Iris, you don't.

Yes, I do.

Last year, when I thought that
Savitar was going to kill me, I was

scared out of my mind.

How did you deal with it?

It was really hard.

But then I realized

that if I hid from him,
if I hid from the world,

then Savitar had already won.

So I made the decision

to not give in to the fear.

I chose to keep living.

[Dibny chuckles softly]

Look, um,

what I said before about

you never putting
your life on the line,

I was wrong.

You make

one hell of a Flash

in or out of the costume.

Thanks. [chuckles]

-You going up?
-Yeah.

I think maybe it's time

that Clifford DeVoe paid
the Mayor another visit.

[Iris West] Hmm.

I thought you were

never leaving S.T.A.R. Labs.

Ah...

I think maybe it's time
I started living again, too.

Plus, we're definitely
out of veggie dogs.

-[chuckles]
-Hey.

Thanks, Iris.

[Barry exhales]

Fresh from this little place
in Keystone

that Cecile recommended.

[Iris West] Wow.

Those cravings of hers
are getting really intense, huh?

Yeah, tell me about it.

It's a good thing
I'm a speedster again.

[Iris West chuckles]

You know you didn't have
to give up your speed, right?

I mean, I would have
never asked you to.

I know.

Why did you do it?

You know what makes
a great speedster?

It isn't their speed.

It's being the light that
everyone needs

when the world goes dark.

It's the kind of
person they are.

The kind of person
that always wants to help.

That's why being the Flash

is your destiny.

It's your way of helping others.

But it isn't mine.

This is.

[chuckles]

I'll leave you to it.

[button clicks]

-[whirring]
-[Cisco] All right, take it off.

Take it off, Harry. That's enough.

We're already 20% over your
suggested safety limits.

You've got to give it
a little more time.

No, that's it.
I'm shutting it down.

No. No, we're almost there.
We're almost there!

You're not breaking bad,
Locutus!

All right? I'm disengaging
the photon flow.

[device powers down]

All right.

I don't need it anymore.

You got the names?

The last two remaining
bus metas.

Janet Petty and Edwin Gauss.

[chuckles softly]
