WEBVTT

00:00:02.430 --> 00:00:06.219
My name is Barry Allen, and
I am the fastest man alive.

00:00:06.220 --> 00:00:09.249
To the outside world, I'm an
ordinary forensic scientist.

00:00:09.250 --> 00:00:11.310
But secretly, with the
help of my friends

00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:12.329
at S.T.A.R. Labs,

00:00:12.330 --> 00:00:15.189
I fight crime and find
other meta-humans like me.

00:00:15.190 --> 00:00:17.450
But when my daughter came
back from the future to help,

00:00:17.460 --> 00:00:19.889
she changed the present.

00:00:19.890 --> 00:00:22.490
And now our world is
more dangerous than ever,

00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:24.929
and I'm the only one
fast enough to save it.

00:00:25.130 --> 00:00:27.760
I am The Flash.

00:00:28.520 --> 00:00:30.280
Previously on "The Flash"...

00:00:30.290 --> 00:00:32.100
- Who's Cicada?
- You'll never catch him.

00:00:32.110 --> 00:00:33.419
This is Sherloque.

00:00:33.420 --> 00:00:36.289
He's the greatest detective
in all the multiverse.

00:00:36.290 --> 00:00:37.620
I'm a detective as well.

00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:39.029
I'm here to catch your killer.

00:00:39.030 --> 00:00:41.449
So we're dealing with a
meta-human Jack the Ripper.

00:00:41.450 --> 00:00:43.809
In my history, he never
killed Gridlock or Block.

00:00:43.810 --> 00:00:45.540
They're completely different victims.

00:00:45.550 --> 00:00:47.929
- He's early.
- Because the timeline changed.

00:00:47.930 --> 00:00:49.520
Because of me.

00:01:03.540 --> 00:01:05.609
Guys, this is mad crazy!

00:01:05.610 --> 00:01:09.209
There are, like, fireballs in the sky!

00:01:09.210 --> 00:01:11.940
Holy...

00:01:11.950 --> 00:01:14.949
I'm gonna get a better look.

00:01:17.930 --> 00:01:22.050
There he is! This is gonna be lit.

00:01:22.060 --> 00:01:24.289
Wait, there's two of them?

00:01:24.290 --> 00:01:26.789
Oh, my God, guys. What was that?

00:01:26.790 --> 00:01:28.859
This is cray! What
is going on right now?

00:01:28.860 --> 00:01:31.199
Is the world, like, ending right now?

00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:33.620
Oh, my phone.

00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:37.279
You just saved my life.

00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:38.969
You are the second speedster

00:01:38.970 --> 00:01:40.729
who just, like, saved the world.

00:01:40.730 --> 00:01:44.709
Can I just get a... Can I just get a...

00:01:44.710 --> 00:01:46.579
selfie.

00:01:49.980 --> 00:01:51.980
What the...

00:02:27.160 --> 00:02:30.189
Sorry.

00:02:30.590 --> 00:02:33.219
- What are you doing?
- Uh, nothing. Go back to bed.

00:02:33.220 --> 00:02:35.010
I'm just making some breakfast.

00:02:35.020 --> 00:02:36.159
Like I could go to sleep

00:02:36.160 --> 00:02:39.960
after the smell of Jitters coffee.

00:02:39.970 --> 00:02:44.480
So, uh, I see you still know
your way around the kitchen.

00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:47.240
What's happening?

00:02:47.250 --> 00:02:48.899
- Uh, hey, babe.
- Good morning.

00:02:48.900 --> 00:02:50.940
Um, I, um, was thinking

00:02:50.950 --> 00:02:54.089
that we could have breakfast together.

00:02:54.090 --> 00:02:56.019
Right? Like a family.

00:02:56.020 --> 00:02:57.919
- I love it.
- Yeah.

00:02:57.920 --> 00:02:59.859
Do you... Hi.

00:03:01.590 --> 00:03:04.929
- Do you need any help?
- No, no. You guys just sit.

00:03:06.530 --> 00:03:08.869
Okay.

00:03:08.870 --> 00:03:12.609
What... do we have here?

00:03:12.610 --> 00:03:14.840
Well, these are
pancakes, as you can see,

00:03:14.860 --> 00:03:18.279
but I made them into
little lightning bolts.

00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:20.709
Well, the batter kind
of got away from me,

00:03:20.710 --> 00:03:22.110
but you see the little zigzag...

00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:24.009
No, no, no. Yeah, yeah.
I totally see it, yeah.

00:03:24.010 --> 00:03:26.290
Yeah.

00:03:26.300 --> 00:03:28.889
What are-what are you doing?

00:03:28.890 --> 00:03:30.750
Uh, I am just getting evidence

00:03:30.760 --> 00:03:34.329
that you make lumpy pancakes
in every time period.

00:03:34.330 --> 00:03:37.290
Let's try it out.

00:03:40.510 --> 00:03:43.630
Mmm. Lumpy, but delicious.

00:03:43.640 --> 00:03:45.960
- Yeah? Oh, thanks, babe.
- Oh.

00:03:47.940 --> 00:03:51.609
I'm sorry, um, when did you...
When did you get a phone?

00:03:51.610 --> 00:03:53.779
Uh, Dad got it for me a couple days ago.

00:03:53.780 --> 00:03:55.249
Mm-hmm.

00:03:59.590 --> 00:04:02.340
Nora suggested it. I mean, I
thought it was a great idea.

00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:04.289
We're always in and out of
S.T.A.R. Labs, so I just...

00:04:04.290 --> 00:04:06.989
You know, it'd be
easier to text and call.

00:04:06.990 --> 00:04:08.759
Yeah.

00:04:08.760 --> 00:04:11.429
Yeah, that totally makes sense.

00:04:12.930 --> 00:04:14.469
You guys excited to cheer me on

00:04:14.470 --> 00:04:15.969
at the charity softball game?

00:04:15.970 --> 00:04:18.839
Softball, schway.

00:04:18.840 --> 00:04:21.309
I just hope I don't get stuck
in right field this year.

00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:26.340
You, uh, gave your number out already?

00:04:26.350 --> 00:04:29.419
Yeah, just to the team and Sherloque.

00:04:29.420 --> 00:04:32.449
Actually, this text message,
I think, is from him.

00:04:32.450 --> 00:04:36.250
I don't think he's much of a texter.

00:04:36.260 --> 00:04:37.810
No.

00:04:37.820 --> 00:04:39.989
He, uh, wants us to
come to S.T.A.R. Labs.

00:04:39.990 --> 00:04:41.000
I'm gonna go get ready.

00:04:41.010 --> 00:04:42.699
You haven't had anything to eat yet.

00:04:42.700 --> 00:04:45.400
Mm. I'm not really a breakfast person.

00:04:50.970 --> 00:04:53.430
You know, I thought having her here,

00:04:53.440 --> 00:04:55.189
we would finally have
a chance to connect,

00:04:55.190 --> 00:04:57.609
but it's like every time
we take a half-step forward,

00:04:57.610 --> 00:04:59.779
we end up taking six steps back.

00:04:59.780 --> 00:05:01.749
I-I mean, don't give
up. She'll come around.

00:05:01.750 --> 00:05:03.550
- I have a feeling.
- Yeah.

00:05:06.550 --> 00:05:09.089
Well, not if I keep
making food like that.

00:05:09.090 --> 00:05:10.719
Hey, no, this really is good.

00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:13.059
It is. I mean, it's a little, like...

00:05:13.060 --> 00:05:15.359
- Wait, wait, stop. Just stop.
- Dark, but... No, it's...

00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:17.010
I'm going to make you
a banana. It's fine.

00:05:17.020 --> 00:05:18.179
You're going to make me a banana?

00:05:18.180 --> 00:05:20.040
I'm going to make you a banana.

00:05:20.050 --> 00:05:21.260
Thanks.

00:05:24.370 --> 00:05:26.839
Wait, no, I asked for everyone.

00:05:26.840 --> 00:05:30.839
Where is the little, uh...

00:05:30.840 --> 00:05:32.840
Cisco is laying low
at his parents' house

00:05:32.850 --> 00:05:34.849
while he heals up.

00:05:34.850 --> 00:05:37.849
Well, that's not very brave on his part.

00:05:37.850 --> 00:05:41.189
I will have a conversation
with him next time I see him.

00:05:41.190 --> 00:05:43.189
So, Team Flash.

00:05:43.190 --> 00:05:45.459
How will this handsome, master detective

00:05:45.460 --> 00:05:47.420
of all the multiverse, Sherloque Wells,

00:05:47.430 --> 00:05:50.859
pay off his debt to us...

00:05:50.860 --> 00:05:56.169
and catch this homicidal
maniac together?

00:05:56.170 --> 00:05:57.669
Well, we'll begin by asking ourselves

00:05:57.670 --> 00:05:58.699
a few obvious questions.

00:05:58.700 --> 00:06:00.610
How he became a meta-human?

00:06:00.620 --> 00:06:02.270
Well, power manifestation varies.

00:06:02.280 --> 00:06:03.419
The particle accelerator...

00:06:03.420 --> 00:06:05.399
I don't think we're
interrupting Sherloque, right?

00:06:05.400 --> 00:06:06.969
- Right.
- Sure, but you bring up

00:06:06.970 --> 00:06:08.430
a good point, Dr. Snow.

00:06:08.440 --> 00:06:11.070
What do we know so
far about this Cicada?

00:06:11.080 --> 00:06:13.049
Well, we know that
he's killed two people

00:06:13.050 --> 00:06:15.249
and almost a third.

00:06:15.250 --> 00:06:17.489
Exactly right. If I could gently be

00:06:17.490 --> 00:06:20.420
a little more specific,
not just people, right?

00:06:20.430 --> 00:06:21.929
Meta-humans.

00:06:21.930 --> 00:06:24.729
Also, Joe said he got the
feeling that Cicada's a dad.

00:06:24.730 --> 00:06:27.799
Right. Cicada... parent.

00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:29.699
His dagger dampens powers.

00:06:29.700 --> 00:06:31.159
Not just dampens the powers, right?

00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:32.849
He commands this dagger, right?

00:06:32.850 --> 00:06:34.900
It is like an extension of himself.

00:06:34.910 --> 00:06:35.930
So we know...

00:06:35.940 --> 00:06:38.509
Maybe they acquired their
powers at the same time.

00:06:38.510 --> 00:06:40.709
Yes, very good, Dr. Snow.

00:06:40.710 --> 00:06:44.319
So, acquired powers...

00:06:44.320 --> 00:06:46.049
together.

00:06:46.050 --> 00:06:47.419
So...

00:06:47.420 --> 00:06:49.949
there we are, Team Flash.

00:06:49.950 --> 00:06:52.189
Very simple.

00:06:52.190 --> 00:06:54.089
We unravel this puzzle,

00:06:54.090 --> 00:06:58.529
and we have a pathway
to tracking Cicada.

00:06:58.530 --> 00:07:01.399
Cool, or we just answer a
much more basic question,

00:07:01.400 --> 00:07:05.210
like what's up with his weird mask?

00:07:05.220 --> 00:07:09.709
Well, the mask conceals his identity.

00:07:09.710 --> 00:07:11.220
- That's what it's for.
- Right.

00:07:11.230 --> 00:07:12.459
What I'm suggesting is,

00:07:12.460 --> 00:07:14.640
if we find out what the mask is for,

00:07:14.650 --> 00:07:16.549
we'll find out the man
underneath much faster.

00:07:16.550 --> 00:07:19.349
37 times I have caught Cicada, right?

00:07:19.350 --> 00:07:22.989
And not once was this mask
angle very useful, right?

00:07:22.990 --> 00:07:24.989
But you know what?

00:07:24.990 --> 00:07:27.190
The more hours I bill you,
the less money I owe you.

00:07:27.200 --> 00:07:29.629
So, if you want to spend your
hours pursuing the mask angle,

00:07:29.630 --> 00:07:31.939
well, then be my guest.

00:07:33.370 --> 00:07:35.229
Okay, great. Sounds like a plan.

00:07:35.230 --> 00:07:37.069
- We got to get going.
- Yeah, yes.

00:07:37.070 --> 00:07:38.159
Good stuff.

00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:41.500
I hope you score a touchdown.

00:07:41.510 --> 00:07:44.509
- It's softball.
- Ah, score a basket.

00:07:44.510 --> 00:07:47.079
So, baby giraffe...

00:07:47.080 --> 00:07:49.649
lead on, my friend.

00:07:49.650 --> 00:07:52.119
Wow.

00:07:52.320 --> 00:07:53.649
Look at these guys.

00:07:53.650 --> 00:07:57.289
They think they're so
much better than us.

00:07:57.290 --> 00:07:59.059
Because they are, Bar.

00:07:59.060 --> 00:08:01.629
I mean, without Captain
Singh or my dad, it's...

00:08:01.630 --> 00:08:03.259
Huh.

00:08:03.260 --> 00:08:06.929
- Huh, what?
- Jonesy isn't here yet.

00:08:06.930 --> 00:08:08.729
Hey, Detective Rowell,
what do you think?

00:08:08.730 --> 00:08:10.999
- Maybe third base for me?
- Right field, Allen.

00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:13.139
Babe, I love you, but
leave the hot corner

00:08:13.140 --> 00:08:15.030
to someone who can
actually field a ball, okay?

00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:16.430
- Play ball!
- Come on.

00:08:17.150 --> 00:08:20.449
- Oh, God.
- In right field.

00:08:20.450 --> 00:08:24.150
Not the hot corner,
but... Guys, come on!

00:08:43.610 --> 00:08:45.709
Safe!

00:08:48.210 --> 00:08:49.879
Whoo!

00:08:52.020 --> 00:08:55.119
Wow, he really is slow.

00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:56.919
Yeah, Papa Joe told me all the stories

00:08:56.920 --> 00:08:59.319
about what an awful
athlete Dad was growing up.

00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:00.959
Well, believe me, they're true.

00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:02.959
Let's just be grateful
that he has coordination

00:09:02.960 --> 00:09:04.309
- when it counts.
- Yeah.

00:09:05.830 --> 00:09:07.260
Hey, what is that, Nora?

00:09:07.270 --> 00:09:09.999
There is this really
great app called Spyn Zone.

00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:11.839
The push notifications
let you know the second

00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:13.769
anything happens in the city.

00:09:13.770 --> 00:09:15.339
Like Iris' Website?

00:09:15.340 --> 00:09:17.139
Uh, yeah, kind of.

00:09:17.140 --> 00:09:18.909
It's just a lot more
up to date than that,

00:09:18.910 --> 00:09:20.540
and it's, like... It's really cool.

00:09:20.550 --> 00:09:23.849
This girl's, like, really in the know.

00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:27.249
Yeah, Spencer Young. I know her.

00:09:27.250 --> 00:09:28.419
Yeah, I see her all the time

00:09:28.420 --> 00:09:29.790
working on her laptop at Jitters.

00:09:29.800 --> 00:09:31.930
She... she actually was
a junior reporter at CCPN

00:09:31.940 --> 00:09:33.659
when I worked there, but...

00:09:33.660 --> 00:09:35.229
she didn't last very long.

00:09:35.230 --> 00:09:37.290
- Why not?
- Well, she wanted to be famous

00:09:37.300 --> 00:09:38.760
and make a name for herself,

00:09:38.770 --> 00:09:39.889
but she didn't care how it happened.

00:09:39.890 --> 00:09:41.620
Well, I think she's cute.

00:09:41.630 --> 00:09:43.410
Yeah, I mean, she may be cute,

00:09:43.420 --> 00:09:45.799
but she's never fact-checked
a thing a day in her life.

00:09:45.800 --> 00:09:47.389
She's doing something
right... She has three times

00:09:47.390 --> 00:09:50.260
as many followers on her app
as you do on your blogs, so...

00:09:50.270 --> 00:09:54.109
I'm going to get something to eat.

00:09:54.110 --> 00:09:57.709
Ooh, wow.

00:09:57.710 --> 00:10:00.980
- Ah, come on, Allen!
- Oh, honey.

00:10:00.990 --> 00:10:02.120
Oh.

00:10:14.830 --> 00:10:17.969
- Cecile? What's wrong?
- Something's not right.

00:10:17.970 --> 00:10:19.350
Something's not right.

00:10:22.710 --> 00:10:24.839
Is that Jonesy?

00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:27.779
Hey, somebody stop him!

00:10:27.780 --> 00:10:29.810
Everybody move!

00:10:43.730 --> 00:10:46.519
Hey, hey!

00:10:46.520 --> 00:10:48.899
- Nora, hey.
- Huh? What?

00:10:48.900 --> 00:10:50.669
What happened?

00:10:50.670 --> 00:10:52.499
You just saved everybody.

00:11:12.310 --> 00:11:14.219
Bomb squad finished their sweep.

00:11:14.220 --> 00:11:16.109
- They said it's all clear.
- Okay.

00:11:16.110 --> 00:11:18.379
Nora, how did you know
what was happening?

00:11:18.380 --> 00:11:20.919
I don't know.

00:11:20.920 --> 00:11:22.519
One minute I was going to get food,

00:11:22.520 --> 00:11:25.059
and the next I was in
the outfield with Dad.

00:11:25.060 --> 00:11:27.020
And you don't remember anything else?

00:11:30.030 --> 00:11:32.129
What's that?

00:11:32.130 --> 00:11:34.360
A notification from Spyn Zone.

00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:38.869
Already? That was fast.

00:11:38.870 --> 00:11:40.600
Allen, CSI time.

00:11:40.610 --> 00:11:42.660
Uh, we're up. We'll meet
you back at S.T.A.R. Labs

00:11:42.670 --> 00:11:45.209
- as soon as we can.
- Yeah.

00:11:45.210 --> 00:11:48.300
Iris, if Cicada sees that post...

00:11:48.310 --> 00:11:51.909
Yeah, he may pick Nora
as his next target.

00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:03.059
Well, you have brought
us to the location

00:12:03.060 --> 00:12:04.770
you first encountered Cicada.

00:12:04.780 --> 00:12:06.399
That's right. How did you know that?

00:12:06.400 --> 00:12:08.229
I know everything.
I'm a master detective.

00:12:08.230 --> 00:12:09.999
Look, I looked at the
CSI file of Barry Allen.

00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:12.539
There is no evidence
of Cicada DNA, right?

00:12:12.540 --> 00:12:15.229
And moreover, look at
this location, right?

00:12:15.230 --> 00:12:16.309
All the traffic through here...

00:12:16.310 --> 00:12:17.939
You can never pull DNA from here.

00:12:17.940 --> 00:12:19.479
It's a good thing
we're not here for DNA.

00:12:19.480 --> 00:12:20.760
What we are here for, then?

00:12:20.770 --> 00:12:22.930
We're here to find out
why Cicada wears that mask.

00:12:22.940 --> 00:12:24.709
Oh, encore with the mask!

00:12:24.710 --> 00:12:26.619
Do you think he's allergic to fresh air?

00:12:26.620 --> 00:12:29.579
- No.
- No, he wears that mask for a reason.

00:12:29.580 --> 00:12:32.129
All right, look, 37
times I've caught Cicada.

00:12:32.130 --> 00:12:34.349
Not once, not one time was the mask

00:12:34.350 --> 00:12:36.459
- a key part of the evidence.
- Yeah, that's true.

00:12:36.460 --> 00:12:38.459
But you said this Cicada is
different than all the others,

00:12:38.460 --> 00:12:40.699
so why wouldn't his
mask be different, too?

00:12:40.700 --> 00:12:43.130
Maybe it's just a mask
to... You know what?

00:12:43.140 --> 00:12:44.969
You want to pursuit
mask angle, be my guest.

00:12:44.970 --> 00:12:46.939
What do you expect to find here?

00:12:46.940 --> 00:12:48.859
When I was getting my ass kicked,

00:12:48.860 --> 00:12:50.739
I noticed that the
more he exerted himself,

00:12:50.740 --> 00:12:52.239
the heavier his breathing got.

00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:54.209
- That's what happens.
- So, I thought...

00:12:54.210 --> 00:12:56.849
if one of those breaths
was strong enough...

00:12:56.850 --> 00:12:59.680
We might just get lucky.

00:12:59.690 --> 00:13:01.849
How we are going to get lucky?

00:13:01.850 --> 00:13:04.050
Barry found traces of
fluoropolymers here.

00:13:04.060 --> 00:13:05.619
- So?
- So the Internet told me

00:13:05.620 --> 00:13:07.059
they're prone to flaking.

00:13:07.060 --> 00:13:08.939
I'm here to get some of them.

00:13:08.940 --> 00:13:11.359
The Internet also tell you to
contaminate your crime scene?

00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:12.999
Very good, master detective.

00:13:14.670 --> 00:13:16.699
Turns out industrial respirators use

00:13:16.700 --> 00:13:18.069
a protective coating around the nostrils

00:13:18.070 --> 00:13:19.350
that are made from this.

00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:21.169
And when this exposed
to another compound,

00:13:21.170 --> 00:13:23.370
dimethyl sulfate,
fluoropolymers tend to emit

00:13:23.380 --> 00:13:24.639
a very distinct odor

00:13:24.640 --> 00:13:25.839
Burnt onions.

00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:28.449
Right.

00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:32.849
We find out where this is used,

00:13:32.850 --> 00:13:34.880
we're going to find our man.

00:13:34.890 --> 00:13:37.050
- Elementary.
- Elementary.

00:13:37.060 --> 00:13:39.989
No shrap, Sherlock.

00:13:42.860 --> 00:13:44.929
It's Sherloque.

00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:54.269
Spencer?

00:13:54.270 --> 00:13:56.069
Iris West, wow.

00:13:56.070 --> 00:13:57.870
Long time. How are you?

00:13:57.880 --> 00:14:00.040
Uh, yeah, yeah, I'm good. And you?

00:14:00.050 --> 00:14:03.079
Good. Married that CSI
guy you were dating, huh?

00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:04.410
Uh, yeah.

00:14:04.420 --> 00:14:07.549
- Any kids yet?
- Um, no. Not...

00:14:07.550 --> 00:14:09.349
Uh...

00:14:09.350 --> 00:14:10.719
No.

00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:12.399
You know, I followed your lead.

00:14:12.400 --> 00:14:14.720
Started my own blog, left CCPN.

00:14:14.730 --> 00:14:17.800
- Now we are both Charleine Foster Kanes.
- Right.

00:14:17.810 --> 00:14:20.699
BTdubs, those Professor
DeVoe stories... respect.

00:14:20.700 --> 00:14:22.769
Metas are clickbait right now, right?

00:14:22.770 --> 00:14:25.839
Yes, which is why I wanted
to talk to you, actually,

00:14:25.840 --> 00:14:27.100
off the record, of course.

00:14:27.110 --> 00:14:28.539
Yeah, for sure. What's up?

00:14:28.540 --> 00:14:31.639
So, uh, I recently
found a source who thinks

00:14:31.640 --> 00:14:33.179
that metas are being targeted.

00:14:33.180 --> 00:14:35.609
Ooh, juicy. Who?

00:14:35.610 --> 00:14:38.719
Well, no one knows, not even CCPD.

00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:40.369
But these metas, including speedsters

00:14:40.370 --> 00:14:43.750
like The Flash and XS,
they are all in danger.

00:14:43.760 --> 00:14:47.459
XS. That new lady
speedster has a code name.

00:14:47.460 --> 00:14:50.659
Oh, like her size!

00:14:50.660 --> 00:14:52.629
Right, extra small.

00:14:52.630 --> 00:14:55.399
- Did you coin that?
- No, no.

00:14:55.400 --> 00:14:58.379
Look, the point is,
writing articles about XS

00:14:58.380 --> 00:15:00.200
could make her a target.

00:15:00.210 --> 00:15:01.939
Or it could make her famous.

00:15:01.940 --> 00:15:04.139
I mean, people are already
obsessed with her...

00:15:04.140 --> 00:15:05.609
and my app even more.

00:15:05.610 --> 00:15:08.130
Besides, a little
threat never stopped you

00:15:08.140 --> 00:15:10.739
from writing about The
Flash back in the day.

00:15:10.740 --> 00:15:12.770
That was different.

00:15:12.780 --> 00:15:17.519
Because it was your blog?
What... do as I say, not as I do?

00:15:17.520 --> 00:15:20.220
Look, please stop, okay?
Before someone gets hurt.

00:15:20.230 --> 00:15:22.959
The only one who's
going to get hurt is you

00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:25.329
when I make your blog irrelevant.

00:15:29.800 --> 00:15:32.199
What is this for, Allen?

00:15:32.200 --> 00:15:35.439
Just trying to get some answers, Jonesy.

00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:37.170
Would you send that to Caitlin?

00:15:37.180 --> 00:15:39.709
I told everyone everything
I know, which is nothing.

00:15:39.710 --> 00:15:42.549
- You don't remember a thing?
- No.

00:15:42.550 --> 00:15:47.419
Okay, God's own truth, Allen...
All I remember is waking up,

00:15:47.420 --> 00:15:49.489
getting ready for the
game, leaving my house,

00:15:49.490 --> 00:15:52.659
and the next thing I know,
I wake up in the field

00:15:52.660 --> 00:15:54.659
after that bomb went off.

00:15:54.660 --> 00:15:57.629
I mean, where would I even get a bomb?

00:15:57.630 --> 00:16:00.160
The evidence lockup.

00:16:00.170 --> 00:16:01.829
It was part of the inventory we seized

00:16:01.830 --> 00:16:03.389
from the Jansen-Moretti case.

00:16:03.390 --> 00:16:06.839
The cameras in the lockup
show you stuffing that bomb

00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:09.569
in your backpack this morning.

00:16:12.280 --> 00:16:15.349
- Joe, no one got hurt.
- They could've.

00:16:15.350 --> 00:16:19.049
The woman I love, my baby...
You could've killed them.

00:16:22.090 --> 00:16:24.719
I watched you come up, man.

00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:27.389
I'm sorry, Joe...

00:16:27.390 --> 00:16:30.690
but I swear, I don't
know how this happened.

00:16:34.990 --> 00:16:36.399
Move, move!

00:16:36.400 --> 00:16:39.239
- How many we got?
- Hey, what is it?

00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:42.769
Fire at CCPN. First
responders are across town.

00:16:42.770 --> 00:16:44.610
We got to go.

00:16:55.190 --> 00:16:56.499
Finally.

00:16:56.500 --> 00:16:58.319
Okay, the building's
already been evacuated.

00:16:58.320 --> 00:16:59.889
Fire trucks are on their way.

00:16:59.890 --> 00:17:01.929
Okay, let's just get
inside and put the fire out.

00:17:01.930 --> 00:17:03.790
I've never done this before.

00:17:03.800 --> 00:17:06.229
Come on. Seriously, move!

00:17:06.230 --> 00:17:08.199
That's okay. We're just
going to create a vacuum.

00:17:08.630 --> 00:17:11.339
Enjoy this news, Flash.

00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:16.979
All right, I'll walk you
through it. Once we're inside...

00:17:19.580 --> 00:17:22.749
What? Where... Where are you going?

00:17:22.750 --> 00:17:26.319
- Nora, what's wrong?
- He just ran away and left.

00:17:26.320 --> 00:17:29.659
His suit's GPS has him west, way west.

00:17:29.660 --> 00:17:31.990
Barry? Barry.

00:17:33.130 --> 00:17:34.529
He's not listening.

00:17:34.530 --> 00:17:37.419
Uh, guys, what do I do here?

00:17:37.420 --> 00:17:39.799
Okay, Nora, you're going to
have to do this by yourself.

00:17:39.800 --> 00:17:41.239
Okay? But I'm going to help you.

00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:42.279
Okay.

00:17:42.280 --> 00:17:44.070
Okay, you need to get
to the heart of the fire

00:17:44.080 --> 00:17:46.809
and extinguish it from there.

00:17:46.810 --> 00:17:49.460
- I got it.
- Rotate your arms

00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:51.009
in tight circles.

00:17:51.010 --> 00:17:52.510
You need to move them
in opposite directions,

00:17:52.520 --> 00:17:54.019
creating twin vacuums.

00:17:54.020 --> 00:17:56.449
Come on, Nora.

00:17:56.450 --> 00:17:58.619
Dad's done this a thousand times.

00:17:58.620 --> 00:18:00.189
You can do this.

00:18:05.930 --> 00:18:07.559
I'm doing it!

00:18:07.560 --> 00:18:09.429
Keep going.

00:18:21.580 --> 00:18:24.279
Whoa.

00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:33.389
Great job, Nora.

00:18:33.390 --> 00:18:35.259
Thanks, Mom.

00:18:38.330 --> 00:18:41.429
Hey... hey, did you find Dad?

00:18:49.210 --> 00:18:50.810
What the hell?

00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:01.739
I'm glad you were there to put that out.

00:19:01.740 --> 00:19:03.609
- It could've been a lot worse.
- Thanks, Dad.

00:19:03.610 --> 00:19:07.449
Don't thank me. Your mom
walked you through it.

00:19:07.450 --> 00:19:10.549
You were really great out there.

00:19:10.550 --> 00:19:13.619
So there was some weird
activity with your scan,

00:19:13.620 --> 00:19:16.220
but everything looks fine.

00:19:16.230 --> 00:19:17.689
Hmm.

00:19:17.690 --> 00:19:19.629
What's the last thing you remember?

00:19:19.630 --> 00:19:21.959
Standing outside CCPN with Nora.

00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:23.760
Next thing I know, I'm in Vegas.

00:19:23.770 --> 00:19:26.599
That's exactly what happened
to me and Officer Jones.

00:19:26.600 --> 00:19:28.069
So maybe the abnormal activity

00:19:28.070 --> 00:19:30.229
was some sort of hypnotic induction?

00:19:30.230 --> 00:19:31.499
I don't know. I mean,
I feel like one of us

00:19:31.500 --> 00:19:33.399
would've noticed somebody
trying to hypnotize me.

00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:35.940
Yeah, and why would someone
hypnotize us to save people?

00:19:35.950 --> 00:19:37.910
Publicity.

00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:40.949
Spencer Young wants to get
famous by making you famous.

00:19:40.950 --> 00:19:42.249
You don't know that.

00:19:42.250 --> 00:19:43.839
She admitted it when we talked.

00:19:43.840 --> 00:19:45.649
Why would you go talk to her?

00:19:47.820 --> 00:19:50.189
Hold on, look at the
timestamp on the post.

00:19:50.190 --> 00:19:53.359
7:52 p.m.? Nora and I
were still with Jonesy,

00:19:53.360 --> 00:19:56.160
and the fire at CCPN hadn't
even been reported yet.

00:19:56.170 --> 00:19:58.019
I guess you'll always be
the first one to the scoop

00:19:58.020 --> 00:19:59.569
if you're the one making it.

00:19:59.570 --> 00:20:01.769
So she's some sort of early edition meta

00:20:01.770 --> 00:20:03.009
who creates stories?

00:20:03.010 --> 00:20:05.269
Fake news taken to a whole new level.

00:20:05.270 --> 00:20:07.139
Maybe she's some kind of meta psychic

00:20:07.140 --> 00:20:08.809
who predicts the news.

00:20:08.810 --> 00:20:10.909
That still doesn't
mean she hypnotized us.

00:20:10.910 --> 00:20:12.910
Yeah.

00:20:12.920 --> 00:20:15.119
Caitlin, can you download
the cortical biometrics

00:20:15.120 --> 00:20:17.449
from Nora's suit and
run it against my scans?

00:20:17.450 --> 00:20:19.350
- On it.
- Thanks.

00:20:19.360 --> 00:20:21.819
What are you thinking?

00:20:21.820 --> 00:20:24.589
We need to figure out if
Spencer's responsible for this.

00:20:36.910 --> 00:20:38.709
Google for the win on finding out

00:20:38.710 --> 00:20:40.819
- where Cicada's mask is from.
- Google for the win.

00:20:40.820 --> 00:20:42.659
So you think Cicada's hiding out here,

00:20:42.660 --> 00:20:44.079
just lurking behind those doors.

00:20:44.080 --> 00:20:45.369
Yeah, as a matter of fact, I do,

00:20:45.370 --> 00:20:47.510
because my search also
told me that Szrek Chemicals

00:20:47.520 --> 00:20:49.849
uses dimethyl sulfates
in most of their products.

00:20:49.850 --> 00:20:52.699
So guess what. I'm
gonna take down Cicada.

00:20:52.700 --> 00:20:55.350
Oh, well, we shall see, giraffe.

00:20:57.630 --> 00:20:59.209
May I help you?

00:20:59.210 --> 00:21:02.480
- Hi, how are you? I'm...
- Elongated Man. I know.

00:21:02.490 --> 00:21:05.560
Sherloque Wells, yes, master detective.

00:21:05.570 --> 00:21:08.069
You know, we'll sign autographs
later... we have some business.

00:21:08.070 --> 00:21:09.969
Uh, we just want to
know if we can ask you

00:21:09.970 --> 00:21:11.339
some questions, please.

00:21:11.340 --> 00:21:12.539
About?

00:21:19.010 --> 00:21:20.979
What about our masks?

00:21:20.980 --> 00:21:22.949
Do any of your employees wear them?

00:21:26.360 --> 00:21:27.589
Follow me.

00:21:44.740 --> 00:21:48.679
Yep. Every worker,
every plant wears one.

00:21:48.680 --> 00:21:50.209
How many plants?

00:21:50.210 --> 00:21:52.049
Three in Central City and Keystone.

00:21:52.050 --> 00:21:55.419
- Mm.
- 14 in the Midwest alone.

00:21:55.420 --> 00:21:57.880
So probably thousands?

00:21:57.890 --> 00:22:01.150
Yeah, and we're not the
only facility that uses them.

00:22:03.590 --> 00:22:04.989
Thank you for your time.

00:22:04.990 --> 00:22:06.680
Hey, I, uh...

00:22:06.690 --> 00:22:09.599
Love that pear meme going
around the last few weeks.

00:22:09.600 --> 00:22:13.229
Classic.

00:22:13.230 --> 00:22:16.269
Mm, classic. I have
a suggestion for you.

00:22:16.270 --> 00:22:18.509
Maybe the next time
you do a Google search,

00:22:18.510 --> 00:22:20.609
advance to page two.

00:22:20.610 --> 00:22:21.939
Hmm?

00:22:42.830 --> 00:22:44.599
So here's the meta-watch,

00:22:44.600 --> 00:22:48.769
Press that button. If
Spencer's a meta, it'll beep.

00:22:48.770 --> 00:22:50.369
And if she's meta...

00:22:50.370 --> 00:22:52.439
It means she could be
dangerous, so come right back.

00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:54.809
Yes. One of us would go with you,

00:22:54.810 --> 00:22:57.380
but she knows both
me and your dad, so...

00:22:57.390 --> 00:22:58.910
I got it.

00:22:58.920 --> 00:23:01.179
Okay, we're here if
you need us, all ri...

00:23:01.180 --> 00:23:03.820
Um...

00:23:05.850 --> 00:23:07.479
I see her.

00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:09.789
All you need to do is get
within five feet of her,

00:23:09.790 --> 00:23:11.120
hit the button, in and out.

00:23:11.130 --> 00:23:13.290
I know!

00:23:13.300 --> 00:23:14.929
You see what I mean?

00:23:16.500 --> 00:23:18.899
Half-step forward, six steps back?

00:23:18.900 --> 00:23:21.839
I mean, you guys did great
with the fire, though.

00:23:21.840 --> 00:23:23.739
Thank you.

00:23:23.740 --> 00:23:25.660
You should totally
name one of your drinks

00:23:25.670 --> 00:23:28.199
after that new female speedster, XS.

00:23:28.200 --> 00:23:30.779
- Hey.
- Whoa. Hi.

00:23:30.780 --> 00:23:32.309
Hi. Sorry, Spencer.

00:23:32.310 --> 00:23:35.219
That's okay. Do I know you?

00:23:35.220 --> 00:23:37.819
- Uh-oh.
- Uh, Nora...

00:23:37.820 --> 00:23:39.310
you have to press the button.

00:23:39.320 --> 00:23:42.350
Um, no. No, you don't know me.

00:23:42.360 --> 00:23:43.920
- But you know me.
- Yes, I do.

00:23:43.930 --> 00:23:46.429
Uh, sorry. You're Spencer Young.

00:23:46.430 --> 00:23:48.529
I read all your stuff on Spyn Zone.

00:23:48.530 --> 00:23:49.739
It's a really good app.

00:23:49.740 --> 00:23:51.709
It's fantastic stories
and really good writing.

00:23:51.710 --> 00:23:53.249
I'm a... I'm a really big fan.

00:23:53.250 --> 00:23:55.839
- Nora..
- I always enjoy meeting a fan.

00:23:58.210 --> 00:24:01.170
Especially when they're
as adorable as you.

00:24:01.180 --> 00:24:03.040
What's happening?

00:24:03.050 --> 00:24:05.749
She's flirting with our
daughter. I'll be back.

00:24:07.220 --> 00:24:09.049
- What?
- Hold down the fort.

00:24:09.050 --> 00:24:10.880
Iris, wait.

00:24:13.260 --> 00:24:15.389
Huh.

00:24:15.390 --> 00:24:20.029
- Do you have a name?
- Nora, hey.

00:24:20.030 --> 00:24:23.429
- Wait, y-you know her?
- Uh, I do.

00:24:23.430 --> 00:24:25.429
Well, she's actually...

00:24:25.430 --> 00:24:27.699
This is, actually...

00:24:27.700 --> 00:24:31.240
Did you want to check your watch?

00:24:31.250 --> 00:24:34.509
I think we're running a little bit late.

00:24:34.510 --> 00:24:37.680
- Right, yes. Mm-hmm.
- Yeah.

00:24:39.580 --> 00:24:41.949
All right, well, I'm going to peace out.

00:24:44.390 --> 00:24:48.119
But I hope to meet
cute you again sometime.

00:24:49.860 --> 00:24:51.059
Nora.

00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:55.229
Well, I guess she's not meta.

00:24:55.230 --> 00:24:57.560
I guess not.

00:25:01.000 --> 00:25:03.000
Oh, no. No, no, no.

00:25:03.010 --> 00:25:05.730
Nora... look, I don't care
that you think she's cute.

00:25:05.740 --> 00:25:09.679
She's dangerous, okay? You
need to stay away from her.

00:25:09.680 --> 00:25:11.679
She could be dangerous.

00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:14.549
Nora, I am trying to protect you here.

00:25:14.550 --> 00:25:17.349
Has that been your thing my whole life?

00:25:17.350 --> 00:25:20.250
What does that even mean, honestly?

00:25:20.260 --> 00:25:22.319
I mean, is that why
you've been so cold to me,

00:25:22.320 --> 00:25:24.089
why you don't want to
spend any time with me?

00:25:24.090 --> 00:25:26.229
I'm... I'm just trying
to get to know you.

00:25:26.230 --> 00:25:28.840
- Just drop it.
- Nora, I don't under...

00:25:28.850 --> 00:25:31.010
Look, you lied to me!

00:25:31.020 --> 00:25:34.169
I would never lie to you.

00:25:34.170 --> 00:25:37.290
Yeah? What do you call that?

00:25:40.110 --> 00:25:42.940
You put a power-dampening chip inside me

00:25:42.950 --> 00:25:44.340
to take away my speed.

00:25:44.350 --> 00:25:45.709
And until six months ago,

00:25:45.710 --> 00:25:47.679
I didn't even know I had powers.

00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:49.780
My whole life has been a lie

00:25:49.790 --> 00:25:51.480
because you have been
trying to protect me.

00:25:51.490 --> 00:25:54.919
Well, guess what. I
don't need you to do that.

00:26:09.040 --> 00:26:11.239
- Hey.
- Hey.

00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:13.839
- What you doing?
- Well, Nora blocked me.

00:26:13.840 --> 00:26:15.809
So I'm trying to use
the quantum computer

00:26:15.810 --> 00:26:18.599
to access her phone and
force her to accept my calls.

00:26:18.600 --> 00:26:20.979
But I am no...

00:26:20.980 --> 00:26:23.010
hacker.

00:26:23.020 --> 00:26:24.990
Don't you think that's a little extreme?

00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:27.230
Yes, Barry, it's very extreme...

00:26:27.240 --> 00:26:30.179
and crazy and desperate, but
I am feeling extremely crazy

00:26:30.180 --> 00:26:32.059
and desperate, okay?

00:26:32.060 --> 00:26:35.190
I thought giving her
space would, you know,

00:26:35.200 --> 00:26:36.690
have her eventually come around,

00:26:36.700 --> 00:26:39.529
but it turns out she's
not the problem. I am.

00:26:39.530 --> 00:26:41.670
I mean, I don't know
how I could do something

00:26:41.680 --> 00:26:42.799
like that to her, Barry.

00:26:42.800 --> 00:26:44.509
Iris, you didn't do anything to her.

00:26:44.510 --> 00:26:47.689
You can't blame yourself for
something future-you might do.

00:26:47.690 --> 00:26:50.280
Yes, I can, Barry, and it's not a might.

00:26:50.300 --> 00:26:53.550
I suppressed our daughter's powers.

00:26:53.560 --> 00:26:56.249
I kept a huge part of
who she was a secret

00:26:56.250 --> 00:26:57.379
for her entire life.

00:26:57.380 --> 00:26:59.080
I did that.

00:26:59.090 --> 00:27:00.799
Look, she'll forgive you.

00:27:00.800 --> 00:27:02.919
What if my dad did
something like that to you

00:27:02.920 --> 00:27:05.789
after the particle accelerator exploded?

00:27:05.790 --> 00:27:07.729
See?

00:27:07.730 --> 00:27:11.829
I don't understand how I could
do something like that to her.

00:27:11.830 --> 00:27:14.669
Look, I don't know why you do it,

00:27:14.670 --> 00:27:17.039
but I don't need to.

00:27:17.040 --> 00:27:20.500
I know that anything you do for
our family, it's out of love.

00:27:20.510 --> 00:27:23.399
So, whatever reason
future-you has for doing this,

00:27:23.400 --> 00:27:25.609
I have faith that it's
the right thing to do,

00:27:25.610 --> 00:27:27.849
and so should you.

00:27:27.850 --> 00:27:29.649
Yeah, well, I'm having a really hard time

00:27:29.650 --> 00:27:30.919
believing that.

00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:34.160
Well, then it's a good thing
I have enough faith in you

00:27:34.170 --> 00:27:35.499
for the both of us.

00:27:35.560 --> 00:27:38.460
That's unusual.

00:27:40.730 --> 00:27:42.740
Dr. Snow.

00:27:42.750 --> 00:27:44.050
Aah!

00:27:44.060 --> 00:27:45.869
Oh, Dr. Snow.

00:27:45.870 --> 00:27:47.739
I have frightened you, Dr. Snow.

00:27:47.740 --> 00:27:50.139
I assume you came here
for some other reason

00:27:50.140 --> 00:27:51.279
than murdering me?

00:27:51.280 --> 00:27:53.649
Oof...

00:27:53.650 --> 00:27:55.279
If I was to murder you, Dr. Snow,

00:27:55.280 --> 00:27:57.379
I would not do it in
such an obvious fashion.

00:27:57.380 --> 00:28:01.389
Look, I have a theory on
the identity of Cicada.

00:28:01.390 --> 00:28:03.189
I request your assistance.

00:28:03.190 --> 00:28:05.849
Uh, okay. I was just finishing up.

00:28:05.850 --> 00:28:08.659
Not your expertise, your assistance.

00:28:08.660 --> 00:28:11.560
I need you to punch me in the chest.

00:28:11.570 --> 00:28:12.899
What?

00:28:12.900 --> 00:28:15.699
Right here, above the... um,
dee-aphragm. How do you say?

00:28:15.700 --> 00:28:16.899
Diaphragm?

00:28:16.900 --> 00:28:17.939
Diaphragm, right.

00:28:17.940 --> 00:28:20.639
In the solar plexus as hard
as you can. Allez.

00:28:20.640 --> 00:28:22.509
Listen, Sherlock...

00:28:22.510 --> 00:28:24.209
- Ugh.
- Loque.

00:28:24.210 --> 00:28:25.900
So this is one of those things

00:28:25.910 --> 00:28:28.749
where you are just the
brains and not the brawn?

00:28:28.750 --> 00:28:31.049
You don't have the guts.
You lack the courage.

00:28:31.050 --> 00:28:32.190
You're soft.

00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:34.950
Probably you couldn't
even hit me in the spot.

00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:39.120
For the record, I
know what you just did.

00:28:39.130 --> 00:28:41.129
- And?
- And it worked.

00:28:41.130 --> 00:28:44.399
Très bien. Then... allez.

00:28:46.100 --> 00:28:47.929
Ooh!

00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:53.769
Oh, uh, are you okay?

00:29:02.550 --> 00:29:04.819
You sound just like...

00:29:06.720 --> 00:29:08.919
Cicada.

00:29:11.020 --> 00:29:12.820
What do we got?

00:29:12.830 --> 00:29:14.890
CCPD is getting bombarded
with calls from people

00:29:14.900 --> 00:29:16.609
at the soccer game at
Central City Stadium.

00:29:16.610 --> 00:29:17.939
It's all over the news, too.

00:29:17.940 --> 00:29:19.000
Okay, I'm going to get over there.

00:29:19.010 --> 00:29:20.649
CCPD already cleared out the stadium.

00:29:20.650 --> 00:29:22.279
Find the bomb, and
we'll help you disarm it.

00:29:22.280 --> 00:29:24.199
- What's going on?
- I'll tell you on the way.

00:29:24.200 --> 00:29:25.589
Come on.

00:29:34.670 --> 00:29:36.869
- Nothing, you?
- No.

00:29:38.380 --> 00:29:40.419
Iris, there's no bomb.

00:29:43.990 --> 00:29:48.490
Guys, look at the
timestamp on Spencer's post.

00:29:48.500 --> 00:29:49.659
11:05 a.m.

00:29:49.660 --> 00:29:51.719
Yeah, and now look at the time that CCPD

00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:53.749
got the first call
about the bomb sighting.

00:29:53.750 --> 00:29:55.169
It was five minutes later.

00:29:55.170 --> 00:29:57.399
Hey, can you bring up
Officer Jones' brain scan?

00:29:57.400 --> 00:29:58.499
I'm going to run the code

00:29:58.500 --> 00:30:00.499
of Spencer's post
through the decompiler.

00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:05.840
Let's see what's underneath.

00:30:10.750 --> 00:30:12.119
Got it.

00:30:16.490 --> 00:30:17.809
- Done.
- The brain scan.

00:30:17.810 --> 00:30:19.620
The code is an exact match.

00:30:22.630 --> 00:30:25.029
- Barry, it's the headlines.
- What?

00:30:25.030 --> 00:30:26.850
That's how Spencer's hypnotizing people.

00:30:26.860 --> 00:30:30.580
They're reading her
headlines! Don't look at them.

00:30:30.590 --> 00:30:32.519
Aah! Too late!

00:30:54.130 --> 00:30:55.839
Nora's been hypnotized.

00:30:55.840 --> 00:30:57.429
She's trying to kill me.

00:30:57.430 --> 00:31:00.169
Nora, you got to snap out of this.

00:31:00.170 --> 00:31:03.669
What I have to do is kill you.

00:31:16.520 --> 00:31:18.219
Caitlin, take over.

00:31:18.220 --> 00:31:21.889
- Where are you going?
- To get my family back.

00:31:21.890 --> 00:31:24.559
Hurry up and kill him already.

00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:11.569
Time to bounce.

00:32:15.890 --> 00:32:17.899
Hey, you're going to be okay. All right?

00:32:17.900 --> 00:32:19.830
Nice shot!

00:32:19.840 --> 00:32:22.849
Guys, do we know where Spencer is?

00:32:22.850 --> 00:32:25.819
I can't ping her phone. CCPD
disabled all the cell towers

00:32:25.820 --> 00:32:28.019
in the area to prevent
a remote bomb detonation.

00:32:28.020 --> 00:32:29.959
She must be local in order
to put those headlines

00:32:29.960 --> 00:32:31.620
up on that big screen, right?

00:32:31.750 --> 00:32:34.459
- She's at the stadium.
- She's here.

00:32:38.070 --> 00:32:41.499
Looks like you'll be trading
this cell in for another.

00:32:45.670 --> 00:32:48.009
All right, Spencer's all
locked up in Iron Heights.

00:32:48.010 --> 00:32:49.909
- The Mayor's resigning.
- What?

00:32:49.910 --> 00:32:51.640
I'm surprised she lasted this long.

00:32:51.650 --> 00:32:53.510
Luckily, I was able
to get a quote from her

00:32:53.520 --> 00:32:55.819
exonerating Officer
Jones for my article.

00:32:55.820 --> 00:32:58.050
Post will go up tomorrow.

00:32:58.060 --> 00:33:00.589
Papa Joe will be relieved
his friend's in the clear.

00:33:00.590 --> 00:33:02.190
Yeah.

00:33:02.250 --> 00:33:04.120
Well, at least now,
with Spencer behind us,

00:33:04.140 --> 00:33:06.849
we can concentrate on bigger fish.

00:33:06.850 --> 00:33:09.150
Yes, we can.

00:33:09.210 --> 00:33:11.299
- So...
- Uh, Sherlock...

00:33:11.300 --> 00:33:15.099
- Sherloque.
- He thinks he's found a key

00:33:15.100 --> 00:33:16.310
to Cicada's identity.

00:33:16.320 --> 00:33:18.810
A crucial clue to help us
solve our little mystery.

00:33:18.820 --> 00:33:21.919
So we all know the distinctive
sound of Cicada's breathing

00:33:21.920 --> 00:33:23.579
due to the respirator in the mask.

00:33:23.580 --> 00:33:27.469
But not just that, because
also his lungs are injured.

00:33:27.470 --> 00:33:29.369
But injured from what?

00:33:29.370 --> 00:33:32.630
Historically, there is an
event that causes David Hersch

00:33:32.640 --> 00:33:35.129
to always become Cicada,
but not this time.

00:33:35.130 --> 00:33:36.920
There's a different Cicada because...

00:33:36.930 --> 00:33:39.759
Because Nora helped me
destroy the satellite.

00:33:41.910 --> 00:33:44.679
Monsieur Allen, Nora's
strike through the satellite

00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:47.249
changed the trajectory of
the debris, and now the debris

00:33:47.250 --> 00:33:49.950
has hit a new person and injured...

00:33:49.960 --> 00:33:52.059
our new Cicada.

00:33:52.060 --> 00:33:54.219
Okay, but how did that
give him his powers?

00:33:54.220 --> 00:33:56.579
DeVoe flooded the
satellite with dark matter.

00:33:56.580 --> 00:33:59.709
It makes sense that the
pieces would be saturated.

00:33:59.710 --> 00:34:02.490
So Cicada and the dagger were created

00:34:02.500 --> 00:34:04.610
the night of the Enlightenment.

00:34:04.620 --> 00:34:08.390
Acquired powers together.

00:34:08.400 --> 00:34:10.469
Well, listen, Sherloke...

00:34:10.470 --> 00:34:13.039
- Sherloque.
- I got to hand it to you.

00:34:13.040 --> 00:34:14.779
That's very impressive.

00:34:14.780 --> 00:34:18.549
It's quite a breakthrough,
right, Monsieur Dibny?

00:34:18.550 --> 00:34:21.619
One that I cannot take any credit for.

00:34:21.620 --> 00:34:24.389
No, all the credit, all the praise

00:34:24.390 --> 00:34:26.360
goes to you, Monsieur Dibny.

00:34:26.370 --> 00:34:29.369
It was your instincts to
follow the mask, right?

00:34:29.370 --> 00:34:32.939
Well, you were right, and I was...

00:34:32.940 --> 00:34:34.599
less right.

00:34:37.400 --> 00:34:39.299
I apologize.

00:34:42.210 --> 00:34:43.989
Okay, guys, I'm sorry.

00:34:43.990 --> 00:34:45.750
The dagger part still
doesn't make sense.

00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:48.820
I mean, things cannot
become metas, right?

00:34:51.610 --> 00:34:53.179
I don't know about that.

00:34:59.090 --> 00:35:02.379
Our satellite didn't
just create new metas.

00:35:02.380 --> 00:35:05.349
It created meta-tech.

00:35:05.350 --> 00:35:09.189
Which puts meta-human
abilities in the hands of...

00:35:09.190 --> 00:35:10.529
anyone.

00:35:26.990 --> 00:35:29.750
Hey.

00:35:29.760 --> 00:35:32.390
Caitlin says you're going to be fine.

00:35:34.930 --> 00:35:39.569
I'm sorry for suppressing
your powers, but...

00:35:39.570 --> 00:35:42.469
I think it was the right thing to do.

00:35:42.470 --> 00:35:44.670
Yeah. No, I-I...

00:35:44.680 --> 00:35:47.740
I get it. I mean, I
was trying to kill Dad.

00:35:47.750 --> 00:35:50.910
I would've done the same thing, too.

00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:52.949
No, that's...

00:35:52.950 --> 00:35:55.619
That's not what I mean.

00:35:55.620 --> 00:35:58.089
I'm talking about in the future.

00:35:59.620 --> 00:36:01.389
What?

00:36:01.390 --> 00:36:04.190
I know that you're upset and angry.

00:36:04.200 --> 00:36:07.269
And honestly, I...

00:36:07.270 --> 00:36:09.770
Before today, I couldn't
even imagine a situation

00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:13.039
where I would do
something like that to you.

00:36:13.040 --> 00:36:16.949
But after seeing the
choice that I just made...

00:36:16.950 --> 00:36:19.479
I know that whatever reason I would have

00:36:19.480 --> 00:36:23.680
for keeping your powers a secret, it...

00:36:23.690 --> 00:36:27.950
it must have been a good one, Nora.

00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:30.259
It must have been to protect you.

00:36:30.260 --> 00:36:33.159
No.

00:36:33.160 --> 00:36:35.730
What happened today...

00:36:35.740 --> 00:36:40.189
has nothing to do with
what happens in the future.

00:36:40.190 --> 00:36:43.769
You didn't suppress my
abilities my whole life

00:36:43.770 --> 00:36:48.600
because I was brainwashed
or attacking people.

00:36:48.610 --> 00:36:52.309
You did it to control me.

00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:57.559
My whole life I felt
like I was different

00:36:57.560 --> 00:37:01.760
than everybody else,
but I didn't know why.

00:37:01.770 --> 00:37:03.999
You took a choice away from me

00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:07.000
that I didn't even know that I had...

00:37:09.210 --> 00:37:13.340
A choice to be a hero, like my dad.

00:37:15.800 --> 00:37:17.469
What's going on?

00:37:20.040 --> 00:37:22.839
- Nothing, we're just talking.
- No.

00:37:22.840 --> 00:37:26.470
Mom thinks that she had good
reason to suppress my powers

00:37:26.480 --> 00:37:31.010
in the future, but she doesn't
know what that reason is.

00:37:35.160 --> 00:37:37.840
I'm sure it's a good one.

00:37:40.830 --> 00:37:43.800
Look, Nora, I don't
have to visit the future

00:37:43.820 --> 00:37:46.020
to know what kind of
mother Iris is going to be.

00:37:46.050 --> 00:37:50.199
She cares about family more
than anyone I've ever met.

00:37:50.200 --> 00:37:51.999
Okay? And...

00:37:52.000 --> 00:37:54.200
I support her decisions...

00:37:54.210 --> 00:37:57.109
past, present, and future.

00:38:02.150 --> 00:38:05.649
Then I guess I need to
rethink what the meaning

00:38:05.650 --> 00:38:08.349
of family is.

00:38:08.350 --> 00:38:10.200
Nora, wait.

00:38:10.210 --> 00:38:12.170
Do you know what hurt the most

00:38:12.180 --> 00:38:14.140
about learning I had powers?

00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:18.830
Not hearing it from my mom.

00:38:31.780 --> 00:38:33.989
- Hi.
- Nora, hi.

00:38:33.990 --> 00:38:37.379
Um, it's kind of a long story,

00:38:37.380 --> 00:38:39.760
but can I stay here?

00:38:41.860 --> 00:38:43.230
Get in here, kid.

00:38:45.200 --> 00:38:47.549
Are you sure it's not too much trouble?

00:38:47.550 --> 00:38:51.169
It's fine. Maybe talk
about the reason later?

00:38:51.170 --> 00:38:55.069
But for now, there's some fresh
pillows and blankets upstairs.

00:38:55.070 --> 00:38:57.339
Thanks, Papa Joe.

00:39:27.640 --> 00:39:30.070
Aah!
