(PHONE BUZZING)

BARRY: Hey, Iris, what's up?

-Barry, I need your help. Now! -(GUN FIRING)

-(IRIS PANTING) -(GLASS SHATTERING)

-Were those gunshots? -Yeah.

I'm at Baldwin Tower. I can't find a way out.

(GUN CONTINUES FIRING)

Window. Is there a window?

Over here!

Um, yeah. Up ahead.

Okay. I'm by the window. Why?

Okay, great. You're gonna need to jump.

What? Are you crazy? Barry, no way!

Iris, do you trust me?

Yes. I trust you.

Okay. Then jump.

I can do this. I can do this.

(SCREAMING)

All right. You good?

-Yeah. -All right.

Wait. How many guys are up there?

-Two. They both have guns. -Okay.

(GUNS FIRE)

Okay. Now they're taking little naps until the C.C.P.D. wakes them.

So what exactly were you thinking?

I got a hot lead on a real estate scam. I mean,

these guys have been illegally evicting people,

breaking up families.

Okay, look. No story is worth your life.

-Thank you for coming. (LAUGHS) -Yeah. (LAUGHS)

I can't wait to write about this.

Pretty amazing, isn't it?

I still can't believe what I'm looking at.

BARRY: Fifty-two breaches in Central City

and the biggest one just happens to be in our basement.

CISCO: We need a name for it.

CAITLIN: It's not a pet, Cisco.

MARTIN: No, it's a wormhole.

Professor Stein, what are you doing?

Your blood pressure is 147 over 82. You could pass out again.

It's merely a few points above the 140 average for someone my age.

Besides, I have some ideas I would like to contribute

to this discussion, Dr. Snow.

And I want to hear them. This isn't just a wormhole.

It's my way home.

Back to Earth-2.

Jay, you really think that we can use

this as some kind of bridge from your world to ours?

Zoom uses the breaches. Why can't we?

CISCO: Well, we don't know how.

Everything I put through just bounces back.

If Zoom's using these breaches to transport people from Earth-2,

maybe it takes a speedster.

-He's not gonna... -Yeah, he is.

(ENERGY PULSES)

(GROANS)

Maybe I'm not fast enough.

I don't believe your speed is the entirety of the issue, Barry.

It might be the breach's stability, or lack thereof.

He's right. We need to think of the breach as a door.

And on Earth-2 there's another door.

In between we have a hallway.

But the hallway's constantly shifting, twisting, collapsing upon itself.

And the doors keep moving with it.

So we stabilize the door, we stabilize the hallway.

-And then I can jump through it. -JAY: Exactly.

It would serve as a kind of cannon.

A speed cannon.

Mmm...

We should hang out more.

All right. No more tests today. All of you are leaving now. As am I.

Cherish the gift of youth as I will go cherish my much-needed nap.

Clarissa's already on her way to pick me up.

Joseph.

You're wearing your wedding ring.

Divorced men take them off. Widowers don't.

I need you to leave town.

And you thought you could pay me to walk away from my own daughter?

Last time you walked away for free.

No amount of money is gonna keep me away from Iris.

It has been 20 years, Francine. Why did you show up now?

Now, I'm different. Now, I'm ready.

No, now you're too late. Iris is fine without you.

You've done a...

You've done a wonderful job, Joe.

Better than I ever could.

But right now, she needs her mother.

Losing the love of your life isn't something

you can just get over in a few months.

I would know.

Would you?

You have 48 hours to leave Central City.

I'm not going anywhere.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYS)

-(GASPS) Oh! -Hey. Hey!

Hey! The Flash!

What?

The drinks that they're serving today. They're called "The Flash."

"A brewed coffee with an extra shot of espresso to keep you running all day."

But you should maybe just, you know, have one of those.

(LAUGHS) Yeah. No, my friends ordered these. I didn't even realize that, um...

Are you sticking around to celebrate?

I don't know. Should I? (LAUGHS)

You know, actually, never mind. I can't.

-I... I have to head in to work. -Okay.

-But it was great to see you. -Yeah.

-Good to see you. Bye, Patty. -Okay. Bye.

-All right. Four Flashes. -Mmm-hmm.

Be careful, apparently they are super-caffeinated.

First, I had a day named after me, now I have a drink.

Well, all the things you do, rebuilding this place, protecting people,

everyone's appreciative, right?

-Mmm-hmm, I'll drink to that. -Yeah.

Hey, you guys think Professor Stein is okay, right?

I mean, Clarissa would call if there was anything wrong?

-Yeah. -All right.

I'm just going to call and check in. I'll be back.

-I don't see that call going well. -(ALL LAUGH)

(IMITATING) Young lady, these repeated intrusions are interrupting

what should be a speedy... Oh!

I'm so sorry.

Don't apologize.

You can bump into me any day, Cisco.

Huh. Lisa Snart.

You here to double-cross us again

or are you and your big bro holding up coffee shops now?

-I need your help. -(SCOFFS)

In your dreams, Sister Cold. You know I could call The Flash,

he'd be here in, like, two seconds. Probably one.

Call him.

Oh! Okay. Imma call him.

Mmm-hmm.

You really want me to call The Flash?

I need his help, too.

My brother's been kidnapped.

All right, so you really want us to just believe

that Captain Cold was kidnapped?

-I saw it happen. -Hmm...

Last night, Lenny, me, and Mick were knocking over

the cashier's cage at Central City Racetrack.

Does it physically pain your family not to rob people?

I never finished the job.

Well, after Mick torched through the side entrance, I looked back for Lenny,

and saw him getting thrown into the back of a van.

And why didn't you and Mick follow?

I would have.

Someone hit me from behind and knocked me out.

When I came to, Lenny was gone and Mick already made off with the cash.

How do we know this isn't some kind of a trap?

If Lenny wanted Flash dead,

he would have let Mardon, Simmons, and Bivolo take that honor, remember?

-Yeah, I remember. -Good.

Then you'll also recall that you owe Lenny a favor for saving your life.

Time to make good on that debt, Flash.

I do not like her.

Yeah, but she makes a point.

What? We should at least hear her out. Right?

Even if I wanted to help, how are we supposed to find him?

CISCO: Not a problem.

See, when I rebuilt the cold gun,

I didn't have time to place a tracker on it.

So I devised a method of locating it by borrowing some military technology.

See, the gun works the same as thermal imaging,

only instead of infrared heat signatures,

it's looking for ultraviolet cold signatures.

Whoa, look at that.

The gun's UV thermal reading was last picked up at 5th and Hoyt.

-Eight minutes ago. -THE FLASH: All right.

Let's see if you're a liar.

Snart.

Barry.

Are you okay?

Peachy.

Okay. Well, uh...

I'm supposed to be here to rescue you.

That's not necessary. You can speed along now.

Look, Snart, if these guys are making you do this...

No one makes me do anything.

Then why does your sister think you've been kidnapped?

(DOOR CLOSES)

(ENERGY PULSES)

(THE FLASH STRAINING)

What's taking so long?

LEONARD: I got held up.

Always the excuse with you...

Well, look at that.

I didn't think you had it in you, son.

LEONARD: Thanks, Dad.

Come on.

(GROANING)

We're behind schedule.

You know what they say. "Live fast, die young."

CISCO: (OVER RADIO) Talk to me. What's going on?

Cisco! Snart hit me with his cold gun!

His vitals are bottoming out.

I'm bringing the heat right now.

(COMPUTER BEEPING)

What?

(GASPS)

The suit. What's happening?

Therma-threading, baby!

It's a little something I added for situations exactly like this one.

(GROANS)

Please... Please tell me it's working.

Yeah. It worked.

But Snart's gone.

And Lisa has a lot of explaining to do.

So, your brother was not kidnapped. He was pulling a job.

With your father.

What?

No. Lenny would never do that.

Oh, just like he would never try and kill The Flash with his cold gun.

Are you sure it was my dad?

That's him.

CAITLIN: Lewis Snart. Convicted of larceny, armed robbery,

aggravated assault, assault with a deadly weapon...

You have to believe me. Lenny would never work with him.

He's a bad guy.

You and your entire family are criminals. Why should we trust anything you say?

I didn't get this scar being a criminal. I got it being a daughter.

Let me go. I got this.

I see you found my hiding spot.

This is usually where I come to, you know,

get away.

First time my father came after me, I was seven.

Second time, I was eight.

That's when I learned that a bottle hurts worse than a fist.

He used to say he was trying to teach us lessons.

I must have been a slow learner because the lessons never stopped.

I'm sorry, Lisa.

Lenny practically raised me.

If it weren't for him, I would have turned out a lot worse.

I know.

(CHUCKLES) How could I be any worse?

(LAUGHS) I didn't say that.

You didn't have to.

But believe me, there is worse.

And look, he may be a jerk brother, but he's the only jerk brother I've got.

He protected me.

Now it's my turn.

If he's with my dad, he is in serious trouble.

Please.

You've gotta find out what's going on.

-Hey, baby. -Dad.

What are you doing here?

I came to check in on my favorite crime-fighting reporter.

Dad.

(LAUGHS)

Actually, there's something I need to talk to you about.

Hey, Iris, Editorial needs your photos and story ASAP.

Congratulations, Detective.

Your daughter's exposé just made the front page.

(GASPING) What?

I am so happy for you.

A little bit jealous, but I'll get over it.

Thanks, Linda. I... I got lucky.

No. She's being modest. Your daughter's a serious badass.

You don't have to tell me.

Well, I better let you get back to work.

Wait, there was something that you wanted to talk to me about, right?

Later. It can wait. Go be fabulous!

(LAUGHS) Okay.

Back from the dead so soon, Barry.

Pass me the salt.

Don't spill, it's bad luck.

Why are you working with Lewis?

Lisa told us you hate him.

Things are...

Complicated with family.

As you know with your own parents, hmm?

Tell me what's going on. Let me help you.

Don't waste your time trying to save people who don't want to be saved.

Yeah, well, maybe it's not just about you, right?

I'm betting, whatever you two are up to, innocent people are gonna get hurt.

Don't worry. I remember our deal.

You leave me alone, I make sure no one dies.

All right. You're a criminal, Snart.

But you live by a code.

It sounds to me like Lewis doesn't. Like he won't care if people die.

That's why I can't leave this alone.

Then everyone will know who The Flash is under that mask.

I don't care.

I will take you down anyway. Both of you.

We'll see about that.

Thanks for dinner.

Mmm-hmm.

(PHONE BUZZING)

Iris' mom is alive.

I lied to Iris. You. Everybody.

Why?

I felt like I didn't have a choice.

Francine did so many things wrong.

Just about everything.

I don't know. Now I feel like my one wrong might be worse.

Look, Joe.

I've known you for, you know, most of my life,

and I know that you always have a good reason for the decisions you make.

And obviously, you were worried

that Iris would go down the wrong path if Francine raised her.

I mean, look at Snart.

He's a criminal because he had Lewis for a father. That could have been me.

Oh, come on. Never.

Yeah, because I had you.

And so did Iris.

You just gotta trust in that and tell her the truth.

Yeah, how do I do that without hurting her?

She's not a little girl anymore.

You should've seen her in action the other day.

Putting her neck on the line for a story.

She can handle anything that comes her way.

I've just lied to her for so long,

I'm scared she's not gonna understand or forgive me.

I could lose her.

No. She's gonna forgive you.

You just gotta give her a chance.

(SIGHS)

We make our move at 9:00.

That's when the cleaning crews go in, and the daytime shift leaves.

Now we'll go up in the service elevator to the 27th floor.

They got a two-man team of armed guards working the 27th to the 29th floor.

But if we time it perfectly with their shift change,

we should be able to get in and out.

And if timing doesn't work out?

-Then those guards don't make it home. -But if we start on the top floor,

-there's a service elevator that will... -Son.

You and I both know that there's casualties in this line of work.

Rutenberg, you're the tech guy.

Did you find a solution for the vault hallway?

Not yet. That Draycon Systems keypad's gonna be a problem.

(CHUCKLES)

Fine. How about you?

You gonna disappoint me too, or is that freeze gun of yours

gonna look after the power source for the laser grid?

It's a cold gun.

And yes. But I have a better way to get past the lasers.

That gun is the only reason you're here, so shut up before I make you...

-Ow. Ow, my... My head! -(BUZZING)

Oh, my head!

Ow! Ahhh!

-It feels like it's gonna... -(BEEPING AND EXPLODING)

Nobody talks to my son that way. Nobody.

PATTY: Don't worry, sir. I waited for you this time.

Okay, I may have done a quick preliminary assessment of my own.

Something is definitely weird.

-Oh. -Decapitation.

-Yeah. -Yikes.

We're still recovering parts of the head,

so the ID is taking a little longer than normal.

(SHOUTS) Ugh! Sorry. I thought I stepped on an ear.

I didn't. If I did, I'd be hearing things.

-Oh, hell no. -(BOTH LAUGH)

It doesn't look like the head was sliced off with any weapon I'm familiar with.

And I'm familiar with most weapons.

Yeah, you're right.

Perforation around the neck is too jagged. It's almost like the head was blown off.

Like a meta-human who can explode heads, right?

Not necessarily.

(RAPID BEEPING)

Traces of thermite.

-Bomb residue? -Uh-huh.

But then why wasn't the rest of the body blown apart?

I don't know.

The victim is David Rutenberg, security systems expert.

And guess who's on his list of known associates.

Lewis Snart.

Lewis Snart? Isn't he related to Leonard Snart AKA Captain Cold?

Please don't call him that.

Okay.

-Uh, one second. Come here. -Sure.

I think this guy is part of Snart's crew.

So, Snart put a bomb in him to keep him in line?

No, Snart wouldn't do that. But his father would.

Wait, so Lewis is killing people, and Snart's still working with him?

What happened with the deal you had?

Maybe he doesn't have a choice.

So you think Lewis put a bomb in his own son

to force him to pull off a heist?

Snart still wouldn't do it.

He'd dig the bomb out of his own head if he had to.

So there must be something else that Snart cares about.

The only thing Snart cares about is his sister.

-CAITLIN: Hey. -Hey.

-Thought you might be hungry. -Ah!

Good to know whatever Earth you go to, there's always a Big Belly Burger.

Thank you very much.

Looks like you're making progress.

Slowly. I should be able to do this a lot faster.

You miss it. Your speed?

Yeah. Surprising how much.

So what will you do when you get back to your Earth?

I don't know.

Guess I'll just have to get used to being...

Normal?

(CHUCKLES)

Yeah.

Two years ago, I was just a scientist slowly trying to save the world

by purifying heavy water without residual radiation.

Important work.

Yeah. It was.

But after the particle accelerator exploded,

I didn't need to wait years for my research to save a life.

I could save one before breakfast. I could save 50 before going to sleep.

There's nothing like that rush.

You guys have been fighting so many battles, one after another,

I'm not sure Barry's had time to take it in.

To appreciate how great it can feel.

Being a superhero isn't always about how fast you can run.

It's about helping however you can, wherever you're needed most.

I think that Jay Garrick, physicist, has just as much to contribute

as Jay Garrick, superhero. Maybe more.

You know what would help me build the speed cannon faster?

-Hmm? -An extra set of hands.

Specifically ones with a surgeon's precision.

Me?

Sure, if you think I can really help.

Hey, Caitlin. We need you up here. Like, right now.

Sorry.

(BEEPING)

Oh, boy.

What is it?

Lisa, there are traces of thermite on your skin.

Thermite? Like an explosive?

Not like an explosive...

It's a bomb.

When you were knocked out, your dad must have injected you with it.

IRIS: Hey. Dad, what's up?

Your message was pretty cryptic, even for you.

Hey, baby.

I need you to sit down.

Dad, what's going on?

Okay.

When I was still a beat cop,

me and my partner were on patrol.

And dispatch came on the radio.

A little girl had called in.

She said her mom had taken some pills and she wouldn't wake up.

And the little girl gave the address.

The address was mine.

By the time I got here,

your mother was unresponsive, passed out on that couch.

And in that kitchen, the stove was on.

There you were, standing in front of an open flame.

If I hadn't gotten here when I did...

Wait, my mom...

Your mom was a drug addict.

This wasn't the first time something like that had happened.

I got Francine into another rehab,

and a couple days later,

she was gone.

I looked everywhere for her, but...

Wife of a cop. She knew how to disappear.

I couldn't stand the thought

of you growing up thinking you were abandoned.

Going to sleep at night thinking your mother left

because you weren't enough to make her stay, that you weren't loved.

Because I loved you.

I loved you with everything I got.

Then we took Barry in.

And I saw the trauma he was going through, and I...

I was sure. I was sure

that I did the right thing. Not giving you that burden.

What do you mean Mom left? I...

I don't... I don't understand. I don't understand.

What are you telling me?

Your mother's alive.

She's here in Central City.

She wants to see you.

All these years, I thought...

Dad, you told me that my...

I know.

I should've told you sooner, but I couldn't figure out the right way.

And the mother you thought you remember,

the perfect mother in the stories I made up for you,

that is the mother you deserved. And I knew Francine couldn't be like that.

She would only break your heart.

I'm so sorry.

(SOBBING)

Dad.

It's okay. I understand.

You were just trying to keep me safe.

The micro-bomb casing must be made of some kind of a ferromagnetic material.

Once you hold it steady with the magnet, I can surgically excise it.

Put the magnet down!

This is a really concentrated bomb.

It's gonna combust if it's exposed to magnetic friction and an oxidant.

What's he talking about?

-Air. -Uh...

The... The bomb will explode if it comes in contact with air.

Don't worry, Lisa. We're gonna find another way to get it out.

Scientific minds, can we confer, please?

What if The Flash speed-extracts it?

No. It's too risky.

I'm gonna find a way to get it out, I just need a little time.

Well, we need to keep track of Lewis

until you figure out how to disarm the bomb.

I wish we knew what he was gonna steal next. And when.

Maybe I can get them to tell me.

Their tech guy is dead.

So I'm betting they're gonna need a new one.

I'm saying I'm gonna infiltrate Lewis' crew.

You're going to pretend to be a criminal?

How hard can it be?

These visits are getting old.

Third time's a charm.

-I told you. I don't need saving. -(GUN POWERING UP)

But your sister does.

I know your dad put a bomb in Lisa.

And Lewis told you he'd kill her if you didn't help him, right?

Look, don't worry.

My team's working on a way to remove the bomb.

Hope you got that gun of yours ready to blast 'cause...

(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

-Who the hell is this? -Uh, I'm...

Lenny said you need a new tech.

What's up? I'm... I'm Sam. What's up?

(CHUCKLES)

You're telling me you think this kid can crack a Draycon keypad?

Well, I did help Snart steal the Kahndaq Dynasty Diamond

from Central City Museum last year.

That was locked up behind an AmerTek Industries Phase Three Suppression Door

with a Draycon XL-1218 keypad.

(CHUCKLES) So...

Couldn't have done it without him.

Draycon's my jam.

Ah...

Okay, Sam. Let's go.

Right now?

You got a problem with that?

No. All good. Can't wait.

Oh, this should be fun.

Keep quiet and follow my lead.

Just like old times.

You watching the Diamonds game?

Yeah. The Salamanders are killing 'em.

IDs.

-What floor are you going to? -27th.

(BEEPING)

(BEEPING)

(BEEPING)

Hey, what's the hold up, guys?

I mean, you wanna call management

and explain why the toilets are still overflowing?

We're all on the clock, right?

Yeah. You guys are good to go.

-Thanks. -Ah...

You enjoy the game, guys.

-Diamonds don't stand a chance. -Not tonight they don't.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

Oh, hold on. Did you hear that?

I got it.

It's two armed guards.

Guess your timing didn't work out after all.

Yeah, that's why we got a Plan B.

'Cause you always needed one.

Yeah, but...

Your sister turned out to be a disappointment also.

(GUN COCKING)

Hey, what do you guys say we get on with the job?

Guards are gone. I don't know, must've taken a break.

Yeah. Must've.

Okay, Sam. Show us what you got.

Yeah. All right.

I'll just...

You guys just keep a lookout and I'll...

(BEEPS RAPIDLY)

(BEEPING CONTINUES)

(DINGS)

(GRUNTS) Told you Draycon was my jam.

(LAUGHS)

-Nice job, Sam. -Yeah.

It's good to go out on a high note.

Sorry, Barry.

What are you going to do to me with that thing?

Operating pressure on this is over 1,000 PSI.

This will easily suck the micro-bomb out of her neck

and into the barrel of this with one high-powered shot.

There is one slight risk.

Besides shooting a high-powered weapon directly against my neck?

The gun does use compressed air.

I trust you, Cisco.

(LASERS HUMMING)

Okay, son, make me proud.

Like I care.

Now what?

I told you I had a better way past the lasers.

Step aside. Time for another lesson.

You've got 125 seconds before the system defrosts.

-Then what? -Sirens.

(CLICKING)

(LEWIS GASPS)

How do you feel?

Like we should've put down some plastic.

(LAUGHS)

That's not funny.

Yeah.

But I like it when you smile.

Okay. Ready?

Shoot me, Cisco.

-(BEEPING) -(GASPS)

(STAMMERS) It's... Flash!

Cisco, how you doing with Lisa?

Uh, kind of in the middle of it right now, buddy.

All right. We need that bomb out.

The heist is going down right now.

(SIREN BLARING)

Time's up.

Let's get outta here.

Only place you're going is back to Iron Heights, Lewis.

Ah...

-You wanna bet? -Do I wanna bet?

Do not bet! Give me a minute!

Tell me this. What kind of man puts a bomb in his own daughter?

-A very rich man. -Ah...

Shoot him, son.

Kill him or you'll never see your sister alive.

Do it, Cisco.

I got the bomb out!

Lisa's safe.

(GROANS)

You're working with The Flash?

I thought you hated him.

Not as much as I...

Hate you.

(ICE SHATTERING)

Lisa was safe.

Why did you do that?

He broke my sister's heart.

Only fair I break his.

(DOOR BUZZING)

Last time I was in Iron Heights, I was visiting my dad.

Yeah, me too.

-And yet you killed him. -He deserved it.

Is that funny to you?

No.

What's funny is I finally figured out your secret.

And what secret would that be?

You'd do anything to protect your sister.

Well, I know your secret too.

Better hope I don't talk in my sleep.

You won't.

Today just proved what I've always known.

There's good in you, Snart.

Yeah, you don't have to admit it to me.

But there's a part of you that knows

you don't have to let your past define you.

A part of you that really wants to be more than just a criminal.

So I should be a hero like you, Barry.

What exactly does that pay again?

It's just a matter of time. Something you'll have a lot of in here.

Not as much as you think.

Be seein' you.

You really think that leopard's gonna change its spots?

I do. (SIGHS)

Maybe we should transfer him to the meta-human wing anyway.

I already got Patty on the paperwork.

All right.

Hey, I wanted to thank you for the advice you gave.

I told Iris. She's going to sit down with Francine.

It was hard, but it was for the best.

I'm glad. Anytime.

-You're a good son, Barry. -(CHUCKLES)

-I know. -(LAUGHS)

-Thank you. -WOMAN: You're welcome.

-Fancy seeing you here. -(LAUGHS)

Okay, we have to stop running into each other like this.

I know. We should just make a schedule or something.

Okay, great. Well, then I'll just have, you know, my people call your people.

See, that's the problem. Neither one of us have people.

So, how are we possibly gonna do this?

There. My number.

Oh!

That... That's what you meant, right? (CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)

(STAMMERS) Yes.

-No. -Yeah, uh...

No, you didn't. Um... You know what, though?

I've actually been meaning to give you my number,

in case you had questions about a case.

You know, sometimes when you call through dispatch, it gets all jammed up.

And this is efficient.

And as law enforcement colleagues, efficiency is important.

Yes, it is. No, that's...

Yeah. That's exactly what I was thinking too.

Okay, great. Awesome.

-Okay, I'll see you. -Yeah.

-Oh. -Oh!

Just kidding. Okay.

-Thanks. -Yeah.

So, taking off?

Thought I'd say goodbye.

And thank you.

Yeah, well, I wouldn't leave a bomb in anyone.

Not even you.

It's more than that.

You were there for me when I was feeling weak.

I hate feeling weak.

It's hard for me to trust people, but I trusted you.

You know, you might actually be my first real friend.

Is any of that true?

Until next time, Cisco.

-Later, Golden Glider. -(ENGINE STARTING)

(ENERGY PULSING)

Ta-da! The speed cannon.

CISCO: (GASPS) Wow! Look at that.

Dudes, you actually built the thing.

MARTIN: Mr. Garrick, I am... I am quite impressed

by what you've accomplished during my recent wellness hiatus.

-Have you tested it out yet? -Not yet.

Want to do the honors?

No, no, no, no! Now that I...

Now that I am back to optimal health, please, allow me.

(GRUNTS)

Excelsior!

How did you stabilize it?

-CFL quark matter. -Ah!

CISCO: Negative energy density with positive surface pressure.

-It's genius! -You created CFL Quark Matter?

It's something we perfected on my Earth. I'll show you some time.

You mean, sometime in the next few minutes?

Oh...

Yeah, I guess this is it, huh?

Time for me to go back home.

Right now? I mean, we still need your help with the breachers.

My first priority is Zoom.

I need to find out what he's up to. How he stole my speed.

But you can do that here.

And, you know, if you go back

then we can't get in touch with you when we need your help,

or with Zoom,

or whatever else.

It would be nice to be able to pick your brain every once in a while.

Get some more speedster tips.

JAY: Hmm.

Okay. Once we take care of Zoom, I'm going home.

-That's fair. -Good. (LAUGHS)

'Cause I could use a shower and a shave, and some sunlight.

(ALL LAUGH)

I'll, uh, see you later.

So, Professor Stein, how are you feeling?

Well, uh, it appears that a little rest heals all maladies.

(STAMMERING) I couldn't feel...

-(CHOKING) -Professor?

No, no, no, no. Get back! Come here!

(GASPS)

(GROANING)

CAITLIN: Professor Stein! Professor Stein, can you hear me?

-Professor Stein? -What happened to him?

He... He went up like Firestorm, but the flame, why was it blue?

I don't know. This isn't good. We need to stabilize him fast.
