The Flash

Last season, on "The Flash."

Melt.

- Killer Frost... - Is gone.

It says there's still another cryogenic anomaly in my DNA.

Killer Frost is still a part of you.

Hang on.

See, right there.

Killer Frost, she was part of you.

Even then.

How is that possible?

To the newest member of Team Flash.

- Hi. - Hey.

We need to talk.

- Who are you? - I'm your daughter, Nora.

Sally's in a decaying orbit.

Okay, how do we stop something

that's going to send us back into the Stone Age?

Barry, you've got to destroy that satellite.

That satellite...

It wasn't just me who took it down.

There was another speedster.

Okay, let's back up.

My name is Nora West-Allen,

the fastest woman alive.

When I'm from, 30 years from now,

I'm the guardian of Central City.

I'm a speedster, just like my dad.

People call me XS.

Every day, I hope to live up to the legacy of The Flash...

But I've still got a long way to go.

You're saying you're our daughter?

From the future?

Named Nora?

After your mother.

Anybody need a refill?

No? Just me?

Mm.

Cisco Ramon,

always cutting the tension with a joke.

You know our names?

Of course. I know all of you.

You're Caitlin Snow, Ralph Dibny,

Papa Joe, Mama Cecile.

Little Auntie Jenna.

She's so cute.

And Uncle Wally.

Uh, and your nickname is XS?

Clearly not my doing.

No, uh, it's a nickname

that you gave me when I was a kid, Mom.

"Mom"?

You said I did everything in excess.

Guess I've always been like that.

Overdoing things, getting in way over my head.

Like, uh, recently.

This mistake that you made?

Big mistake.

Which was...

Helping you save the city

by destroying the STAR Labs satellite last night.

You were the other speedster?

I just couldn't stop myself

from getting involved.

But something happened when I did, because now,

I can't seem to go fast enough to open up the Speed Force.

Par... pardon me.

Are we talking about actual time travel here?

Do you just like, not pay any attention

when we have our briefings?

Y'all didn't teach him about the Legends?

Look, nobody said bubkes about time travel.

Shh, shh, shh. Oh!

Come on, Ralph. You're scaring the baby.

Yeah, you're scaring the baby.

No, no, she's not scared.

She just said she's hungry.

She said that she's... Joe!

I heard her!

I read her mind!

I might not be losing my powers!

I might not be losing my powers!

Awesome.

I'm sorry.

I know how bizarre this must seem,

meeting your daughter from the future as an adult.

But really, this wasn't my plan at all,

but I'm kind of stuck here now,

and you're the only people who can help me.

So... anybody know what to do?

This is so, so weird.

Yeah, I mean, I can't believe that's our daughter up there.

- We have been lied to before. - Barry.

Yellow lightning like yours, purple lightning like mine?

I mean, it's... It's got to be her.

We're meeting our daughter for the first time, Barry.

Yeah, well, look. If it is true, Nora

could say the wrong thing or step on the wrong butterfly

and screw up the whole timeline.

I mean, she could Marty McFly herself out of existence.

Mm, "Terminator 2," yeah.

No, that's "Back to the"... It doesn't matter.

Look, we just need to be responsible, all right?

I mean, I think we need to find a way to send her home, fast.

Barry, don't you think future us taught our daughter

how not to screw with the timeline?

Wow, this Speed Lab sure is archaic, huh?

La-la-la-la-la, you don't know...

You know what, um...

Sorry, just... no future talk, all right, please?

Right, I don't want to wreck the timeline.

- Right. - All right, Nora.

This is gonna link us up with your biometrics.

Ow!

And this little scrunchy doohicky

is gonna analyze your connection to the, um, uh...

- The Speed Force. - The Speed Force. Thank you.

Great.

I'll be back in a... flash.

And what does it say?

A quick analysis of her DNA shows

patterns that are similar to both of yours.

I knew it. She's our daughter.

What about her being stuck here?

Everything's normal.

She definitely has Speed Force in her system.

She's just not going... fast enough

to, uh, open up a time portal, so.

How much champagne did you have at Joe and Cecile's?

This is the first opportunity I have

to process my breakup with Gypsy, okay?

How was I supposed to know

that your future daughter

was gonna come show up

and crash my pity party?

How was I supposed to "ancipitate" that?

Crap, I was supposed to meet Singh

- at CCPD an hour ago. - Okay.

Hey, Wally, can you do me a favor?

Can you take the sample to the Legends

to see if they have any insight?

And maybe, worst comes to worst,

we can take her home on the Waverider?

- Yeah, I got it. - All right.

Okay, just... I'll hurry back.

Keep an eye on her.

New ID, keys to the lab.

You are officially reinstated as our CSI tech, Allen.

Thanks, Captain.

Oh, one more thing.

We didn't fill your position while you were away,

so there are a few cases waiting for you in your lab.

Get to them fast as you can.

Welcome back, Allen.

"A few"?

- Ahh! - What you working on?

- I don't... - You are crazy behind.

Hey, so I thought you were gonna stay at STAR Labs,

with, um... with your...

Iris... mom.

Your mom.

You know I'm a forensic scientist too?

CCU grad, just like you. 5.6 GPA.

I could help you get through this.

Oh, I don't know. I mean, it's...

So the fire marshal at this site says

crazing in the melted glass suggests a liquid accelerant.

Mm, any petroleum-based household product

could cause crazing.

Well, like floor wax, or shag rugs, even balloons.

Yeah, the glass melts under the surface,

like ice cream in the cracks of a waffle cone.

Oh, like when you get two scoops

of cookie dough ice cream with extra sprinkles

at the Mason Family Ice Cream Shop in...

Happy Harbor, Rhode Island.

My parents used to take me there when I was a kid.

It's my favorite dessert.

Mine too.

Hey, look, I'm sorry, um, you're obviously

good at forensics, but you shouldn't interfere.

I mean, people like us, we need to be responsible.

Right! Uh, timeline.

The timeline, yeah.

All available units,

M-0-3 in progress, 10th and Neely.

M-0-3, that's a meta attack.

Yeah, my suit's all torn up.

I don't have anything to...

Direct from Cisco's back closet.

One first-edition red emblem OG super suit.

Total fan favorite.

- Thank you. - Mm-hmm.

Uh, I'm... I'm gonna handle this.

You just... no, no, no.

Uh, you... stay.

- Okay? - Okay.

Seriously, please.

Now I'm gonna...

Going old-school today, Flash?

Yeah, it's a little tighter than I remember, though.
