The Flash

My name is Barry Allen,

and I am the fastest man alive.

To the outside world, I'm an ordinary forensic scientist,

but secretly, with the help of my friends at S.T.A.R. Labs,

I fight crime and find other meta-humans like me.

In an attempt to stop the evil speedster Savitar,

I was accidentally thrust into the future,

and I saw him murder the woman that I love.

But I won't let that happen.

I'm gonna do everything in my power to change the future,

and I'm the only one fast enough to keep her alive.

I am The Flash.

Previously, on "The Flash"...

The night that Savitar kills you,

you didn't have a ring on your finger.

We weren't engaged yet.

So you thought that if we were...

That it might change the future.

Now there's always gonna be a part of us that's tainted.

Why is Savitar hiding in the Speed Force?

That's where the future you trapped him.

- That's right. - I have what I need...

... to escape my hell, Wallace.

Not everything; we still have a piece of that stone.

- It's gone? - If Savitar gets ahold of the stone...

He'll escape for sure.

You can't get rid of that stone, Wallace.

You're not fast enough to throw it into the Speed Force

by yourself.

Wally has taken my place in the Speed Force.

We have to bring him back. We have to save him.

My fear is the reason for all of this.

Savitar was right.

This is all because of me,

because of my weakness.

Flashpoint.

And because of it, everyone's lives have changed.

Everyone I love is suffering.

This has to stop.

I can't let anyone hurt anymore because of me.

No one else should have to pay for my sins.

And they won't.

Ever again.

Cisco.

Get the breach room ready.

Okay, for what?

I'm gonna save Wally.

How exactly are you going to do that?

I'm going back into the Speed Force.

I'm just trying to wrap my mind around

you going into the Speed Force again.

The Savitar said he was there for years.

You said it was like being in space.

- I know. - So what are you gonna do?

You gonna run in there and run around till you find him?

- It's endless. - I know.

And this is the only way to save Wally.

Yeah, yeah, I just... we need a plan.

I... I...

I don't wanna lose both my sons.

Look, gang, I don't understand the Speed Force,

but there are plenty of people in this room who do.

Am I correct in assuming there's a point coming?

My point is why can't you use your knowledge

to fashion some kind of safety precaution for young BA right here,

so that, while he's in the Speed Force, he doesn't get lost.

Oh, so you're saying I can just whip up

some kind of inter-dimensional tether

to just anchor him to the Universe?

Yeah.

- That's exactly what I can do. - Yeah!

Now we're cooking with helium.

Yes, and I can... I can add a biological component

that will measure his vitals when he's in the Speed Force.

- That's a great idea. - Thank you, Caitlin.

Because if we can monitor Barry's vitals,

we'll know if they fluctuate, and we can pull him out.

You mean "pull us out."

Yeah, if you're going in there to save Wally, so am I.

Jesse, you're gonna stay here.

Because if your father finds out you're lost in some negative world,

the first person to get a broken schnoz is me.

- There's a negative world? - Yeah, negative world.

Really? They have Super Mario on Earth-29?

Oh, yeah, challenge me.

Barry, you need my help. Your shoulder is still broken.

It's okay. It's almost healed.

No, look, I can do this.

I know, but I need you to stay here.

Keep the city safe while I'm gone.

And this is something I have to do alone, okay?

Fine.

Thank you.

Okay, let's go to work.

Can I talk to you?

Yeah.

I'm gonna find Wally.

Whatever's holding him,

whatever's keeping him trapped in there,

I'm gonna get him back.

- Okay. - Okay.

Iris...

did I lose you?

Bar.

What's going on?

Nothing, nothing.

I'm just trying to make her...

not worry so much.

About Wally or you?

Joe, now's not the time, all right?

Look, you...

are about to risk your life

to save her brother.

I think now is the perfect time.

She's having doubts about us.

About marrying me.

Did she call off the engagement?

Guess I changed the future one too many times.

I think that's gonna do it.

We should be able to use this to keep track of Barry's vitals.

He'll play astronaut, and we'll play Houston.

Right, but how exactly are you gonna track his location

when he's in the Speed Force?

Well, this is just a simple modification

from what we used to get Barry out last time,

so the electrode halo?

Julian wasn't part of the team last time.

- Not yet. - Oh, right.

You know that thing we used to talk to Savitar?

Yes.

Meet the electrode halo.

So basically these two are linked electromagnetically

- via Goldtooth. - Goldtooth?

Yeah, it's kind of the Cisco Ramon

inter-dimensional equivalent of Bluetooth.

Kind of proud of it.

Anyway, it gives us all the relevant locus information

no matter what corner of the multiverse Barry's stuck in.

And, if Barry needs our help,

it'll stimulate Cisco's prefrontal cortex.

And I'll open a breach and...

send him back in.

Good Lord, multiverses, breaches, halos,

easy bloody peasy.

By George, I think he's got it.

Cisco, you about ready?

Born ready.

Okay.

Here's winging it.

Winging it? Wait, what do you mean?

Well, I mean, I don't really have a map of the Speed Force,

so when I vibe Barry into it...

You have no idea where I'm gonna land.

But the good news is, if he gets stuck

on the wrong side of the tracks, now we can fish him out.

Find my boy.

I'm gonna do whatever it takes.

Thank you.

I love you, Iris.

I love you too.

Are we ready?

Good to go.

To infinity... and beyond.

Okay, once I let go, you're on your own.

Do it.

Good luck.

Wally?

Wally?

Hello?

Hey, Bar.

Why are you here?

Why did you come back to this place?

I'm here to save Wally West.

Ever the hero, huh, Barry?

It's my fault that he's trapped here.

Is it?

Where is Wally West?

He's not exactly here, per se.

He's in the prison you created.

Well, your future self, that is.

How do I get him out?

How do I get him out?

I think you'll find we're not gonna be

as accommodating as we were the last time you visited us.

What the hell does that mean?

It means things have changed.

We gave you your speed back because you said

you'd come to terms with your mother's death,

but you lied to us.

- I... - You went back in time,

and saved her.

And, in doing so, you created Flashpoint.

Zoom had just killed my father.

We know, and we understand,

which is why we allowed you to do that,

but choices have consequences.

And I'm afraid we can't let you make any more choices like that.

Wally is just a kid.

He's a Flash.

He made his choice.
