1000 Best The Flash Quotes

Barry: [Stein plays the message he and Jax found on the Waverider] A war is coming, Captain Hunter, and at some point, you're gonna be called back to Central City to fight it, so you need to know that while you and your team have been in the Temporal Zone, I made a choice that affected the timeline. As you know, whenever you alter the past, those changes affect the present and get compounded in the future. When you return, you will be in the new timeline I created, where everyone's past and everyone's future has been affected, including yours. When you come back, don't trust anything or anyone, not even me.
Barry: [listening] Where did you get that from?
Jefferson: We found it in a secret room inside the Waverider. It was sent by you, forty years from now.
Oliver: Forty years from now? Barry, what the hell does this mean?
Barry: It means I screwed things up when I changed the past.
Dr. Martin Stein: What did you do?
Barry: I went back in time. I saved my mom. I created a timeline where she's alive; it's called Flashpoint, and I lived in it for a few months, and... until I realized that I made a big mistake, and I tried to reset the timeline and put things back to how they're supposed to be, but...
Jefferson: But it didn't work.
Barry: No.
Oliver: Wow. Barry, that's...
Dr. Martin Stein: So, what's changed since you did this?
Barry: Cisco's brother is dead, Caitlin has powers, Diggle has a son now instead of a daughter.
Oliver: What? John had a daughter?
Barry: I didn't just screw up my life, man, I screwed up everybody's lives. And apparently, everybody's lives in the future.

Joe: I ran background checks on everyone involved in this Tar Pit mess, came up empty. I mean, they all have records, but they're sealed, so can't read 'em.
Cisco: Well, that's 'cause you're bound by ethics, Detective West.
Joe: How many felonies are we committing breaking into sealed court records?
Cisco: Eh, three or four. Nope, five.

Grace: Whose house is this?
Orlin: It's my cousin Robbie's. He doesn't live here anymore, but he said if I fix it up, we could stay here.
Grace: [seeing an unfished dollhouse] What's this?
Orlin: That is a dollhouse. Or it can be once we build it, and, you know, you can, uh... pick out furniture and, um, colors, or wallpaper. Decorate it how you want. Hey, uh... I know we didn't get off to the greatest start these past few months.
[seeing her look]
Orlin: Okay, it was a lousy start. But I want to fix all that. Well, I was thinking that while I work on this place, we could work on this one, too. Together. Listen, you were right, kid. I do hate me. I don't really know any other way to be, but I want to do right by you, Gracie. I want to keep you safe, and warm, fed. You know, just... give you all the things a kid should have.
Grace: [after a moment of consideration] Let's start with the dollhouse.

Cisco: How'd you get your suit in your ring?
Eobard: Who are you?
Cisco: My name is Cisco Ramon.
Eobard: And we know each other well, don't we? We have a history together.
Cisco: You could say that.
Eobard: And that's all you want to know? How I got my suit in my ring?
Cisco: I want you to know I'm the one who figured out you were back. I helped stop you. Me.
Eobard: And how'd you do that?
Cisco: I have powers. And I helped track you down and I put you in here.
Eobard: That's quite the ability you've been given.
Cisco: And here's what's so ironic about it. You gave me these powers. Have fun thinking about that while you rot away in this cell that you helped me build.

Joe: You took the photos down from your mother's case.
Barry: Yeah, well, the case was solved. This one isn't. We got these two. Kilg%re and Hazard. But that still leaves ten metahumans that were created when I came out of the Speed Force.
Joe: How hard can it be to track down ten bus passengers?

Cisco: Dude, you are a crime-fighting, lady-slaying machine.
Barry: Oh, God, it was so cool. She was so cool. We're going on another date tonight.
Caitlin: Tonight? Really?
Cisco: Aren't you worried about moving too fast?
Barry: No. What do you mean? It's a second date.
Cisco: No, no, no, no. I meant going too fast. Hurrying? Look, I mean, you're fast, but there's fast, and then there's fast. Am I being subtle enough?
Barry: You're really not.

Grodd: Grodd's mind wasn't affected by the merging of the multiverse, but Grodd can still sense changes in this reality. Changes like Gorilla City. City is here now. The gorillas are here now. Grodd knows this. Grodd wants to return home.

Officer: Chief Singh? Sir, what happened? Are we...
Chief: Dead? No, Officer, we're very much alive, and I'm pretty sure we owe our lives to a certain speedster and his better half.

Eobard: What do you want?
Barry: Like I said, you're gonna fix this for me.
Eobard: To do what?
Barry: Drain dark matter.
Eobard: Whose dark matter?
Barry: None of your business.
Eobard: It is my business.
Barry: No, it's not.
Eobard: There's no chance that I help you...
Barry: It's none of your business!
Nora: Cicada's!
Eobard: Cicada's. The one who got away.

Caitlin: You of all people should know that in Science We Share! We Do NOT Keep Secrets.

Dr. Martin Stein: Well, I must admit I never imagined the Sphinx's riddle about a man requiring three legs would ever apply to me, but if this device keeps me mobile then I will gratefully oblige.

Iris: She's dead. You killed Alexa.
Speed: Barry and I did it together. That was the only way. She was the strongest. I needed every ounce of power, including your strength, to kill her.
Barry: I'm supposed to protect lives, not destroy them!
Speed: I'm helping you clean up your mess, Barry. This is your fault. The night you brought me back, you created these monsters.
[derisively at Iris]
Speed: You and your lighting rod. When you regained your speed, I wasn't the only thing you two willed into existence.
Iris: That's impossible.
Speed: Really? Alexa was afraid to come here, but she trusted you. Why? Because deep down, she could feel a connection with you. The same connection that you feel with me now. But these new forces? The way they've merged with the people they chose as avatars? It's corrupted them because it's unnatural.

Mark: I know you, don't I? Kyle Numbus. Used to be a member of the Darbinyan crime family.
Kyle: That's right.
Mark: Weren't you executed about a year ago?
Kyle: It didn't take.
Mark: No. The Darbinyans weren't known for hiring the best and brightest. You couldn't even die right.
Shawna: So you're so stupid mad right now, Mardon, you're going to pick a fight with anyone?
Mark: Guess so.
Kyle: If I had my powers right now, I would gas you all out of existence.
Jake: And then you'd be standing in a container with four corpses. What would that get you?
Mark: Peace and quiet.
Kyle: Well, I don't know about you guys, but I don't need my powers to fill this rig full of bodies.

Dr. Harry Wells: Her name is Dr. Light, small-time thief on my Earth until exposed to the dark matter from the Particle Accelerator and became a meta-human with the ability to derive power from starlight.
Cisco: Oh, very cool.
Dr. Harry Wells: Stars having a temperature of 5,300 degree kelvin and a blinding luminosity, I would say, "Not very cool at all."
Cisco: You know, our Dr. Wells may have been evil, but you're just a dick.

Iris: Okay, get me up to speed.
Allegra: Well, Taylor is handling our new ad-free portal.
Iris: Oh, you two are okay these days?
Allegra: Oh, yeah. You missed the whole hostage situation with Sunshine and Dr. Light. Taylor, Vanya, and Aariz know I am a meta now and they are keeping my secret, so...
Taylor: [bumping into them] Ooh! Oh, I am so sorry. Iris, we missed you. But also, we've gotta do something about our filing system. I'm trying to fact-check my "High Life" piece and I can't find anything.
Allegra: I'll look into it.
Taylor: Thanks.
Allegra: And, boss, I have a feeling more than just our filing system is about to change.
Iris: What is that supposed to mean?
Allegra: I have a surprise for you. I wanted to tell you this in person, so while you and Barry had your weeklong staycation, I had a surprise meeting with one Ms. Cat Grant.
Iris: As in CatCo, Cat Grant?
Allegra: Yes. CatCo Worldwide Media wants to buy CCC Media and expand your global footprint under the umbrella of a major news conglomerate. She said it's a blank check. All you have to do is just say yes. Iris, this is your future empire, the one that Nora and Bart are always talking about. This is how it starts. Maybe this is where you win your first Pulitzer.

Jay: We need to think of the breach as a door, and on Earth Two there's another door. In between, we have a hallway, but the hallway's constantly shifting, twisting, collapsing upon itself.
Barry: And the doors keep moving with it.
Cisco: So we stabilize the door, we stabilize the hallway.
Barry: And then I can jump through it.
Jay: Exactly. It would serve as a kind of cannon - a speed cannon.
Cisco: Mm. We should hang out more.

Barry: [after Nora's angry outburst] How long you been holding that one in?
Nora: My best guess... my whole life. Growing up without you, I was so angry, but you were my hero, so... it was easier to put my anger for you not being around on criminals and meta-villains; a lot of times on mom. But when I saw you die today, it reminded me that I'm mad at someone else about losing you. You.
Barry: I get it. It's not easy having a parent who puts their life on the line for others. I remember feeling the same way about Joe being a cop when I was a kid.
Nora: No, it's not the same thing. Did he ever have to say goodbye to you knowing that he wasn't coming back? You did, and you're gonna do it again.
Barry: Nora, you gotta remember you're talking about a future that we might be able to avoid. We still have time to find our way to a solution, and we will.
Nora: But there is a solution. It's just one that you don't want. Give up being the Flash. Come on. It's the only way to guarantee that you won't disappear again in the future, or any other time.
Barry: Nora.
Nora: [hugging him as she cries] Come on. Think about it. You're not the only hero. Let the others protect the world. You don't have to keep sacrificing yourself. You give your life again and again. How many times does it have to be you? It hurts so much losing you when I didn't even know you, but now after all of these months getting to know you, I just... please, dad, don't make me go through it again. I don't want to go through it again.
Barry: Nora, people need the Flash.
Nora: [more to herself, as she leaves] I need my dad.

Joe: Hey, Counselor Horton. How are you?
Cecile: I am crappy, Detective West. So if you don't mind, I'm just gonna...
Joe: [blocking her way as she starts to leave] Yeah. Sorry, um, we are celebrating New Year's here, and...
Cecile: Oh, God. Okay, I'ma stop you right there. Um, two things: one, I have a ton of paperwork back on my desk at the D.A.'s office, and two - this one's important; pay attention - all men are jerks. No offense.
Joe: None taken.
Cecile: Great.
[leaving]
Cecile: Happy New Year.
Joe: Damn...
Officer: Sorry, Detective. Then again, her divorce just finalized last week.
Joe: That wasn't worth mentioning?
Officer: I was gonna, but it just seems like you two would make such a great pair.

Goldface: Don't I know you?
Barry: Uh...
Goldface: You're that rat that cost me the organ printer! The Chemist!
Barry: Yes. Um, yeah. Look, I-I was on an undercover assignment. Look, why don't you just tell us what it is you want? 'Kay, nobody has to die tonight.
Goldface: You know my lady, Amunet Black? Not only is she the finest female this side of Mississippi, but she's got some intel that there are some very rare and valuable items in your armory. I want what's in there. So I'ma go get it. And if anyone tries anything...
Barry: We get the belt.
Goldface: Good memory, Chemist.
[to one of his henchmen as he leaves]
Goldface: Keep an eye on this one. He smells like trouble.

Nora: Assuming we can find our way into the Negative Speed Force, let us handle this. We will make sure Thawne gets back to Iron Heights. Dad, we promise.
Barry: You weren't there. You didn't see what I saw. Iris died in my arms before her body disappeared. You say she's alive, but for all we know, she's already been erased from this timeline, only the changes haven't caught up with us yet. It's happened before.
Bart: You still wanna kill him, don't you?

Iris: Cisco, we got your message. I'm... I'm really sorry to hear about Gypsy.
Cisco: Some things you never get over. But her service is next week.
Barry: You want us to come with you?
Iris: Yeah. I mean, we loved her, too.
Cisco: Thank you. Uh, Kamilla's coming with me, so... I'm very lucky to have her. Is it wrong to feel that way? I mean, with everything that just happened? It's like I'm moving on. What kind of person does that?
Iris: Someone who is very much in love.
Cisco: It's funny. Cynthia wasn't the person I ended up with, but, um, I think she taught me how to be the person I needed to be for when the right person came along, and for that, I will never forget her.

Norvok: [to Caitlin] Amunet wants you.
Iris: Uh, Caitlin, do you know him?
Norvok: You need to come with me.
Caitlin: I'm not going anywhere with you.
Cecile: Please tell me that this is just part of his act.
Felicity: If it is, it's taking too long. Take it off!
[Norvok's eye pops and drops into Felicity's drink]
Felicity: Gross! I mean take off your pants, not your eye!

Cisco: Hey, what's up with all new your toys?
Abra: A magician never reveals his secrets. I see you're finally Mecha-Vibe.
Cisco: Mecha-Vibe? I know he just did not name me.
Abra: I know more than just your name. I've seen your future.

Dr. Harry Wells: [meeting the new Council of Wells] All of you have been kick...
[to Cisco]
Dr. Harry Wells: You got me a council of rejects.
Cisco: Well, they're brilliant rejects.

Cisco: He's running at Mach 5. He's moving faster than you.
The: But I know this city better than him.
Cisco: [as they run around the city, Godspeed gets the advantage and knocks Barry down] Barry!
Godspeed: You're pathetic. You don't deserve the speed you were given. We do!

Iris: [listening to Cisco and Ralph bicker] What is wrong with those two?
Dr. Harry Wells: You.
Iris: Excuse me?
Dr. Harry Wells: You know what's wrong. You're the team leader. Team leader's supposed to make the tough call.
Iris: I made a call. I said we would look for both of them.
Dr. Harry Wells: No. Looking for both of them is not a choice. We're overtaxing our resources, our people, because you won't face the hard truth. And the hard truth is we can't look for both. We can only look for one.
Iris: Harry, I just made a vow to love and protect Barry. To stand by him through thick and thin. And now you're asking me to choose between my husband's life and my friend's? I can't. I... I can't do that.
Dr. Harry Wells: You have to. Or we risk losing them both. You have to choose.

Cisco: Okay, you know what? This is exactly why we didn't contact you, 'cause the last thing we need around her is more of your salty-ass attitude.
Dr. Harry Wells: If you don't need my salty attitude, then maybe you should carry on without me. I'll let myself out.
Cisco: Oh, are you going back to your Earth? I'll breach you there right now.
Dr. Harry Wells: [mocking in a high voice] "I'll breach you there right now!"
Cisco: That's not what I sound like. That was really high.

Ralph: [Trying to compliment Cecile] You're the Deanna Troi of Team Flash.

Jay: Good to see you again, Barry.
Barry: You too, Jay.
Jay: You were right. You were hit with a dose of pure antimatter. Lucky you have speed healing, or that scratch could've wiped you out of existence.
Barry: So is there a way I can time travel past the barrier?
Jay: You want to tell me why the hell you were time traveling to begin with?
Barry: I needed to see for myself if The Monitor was telling the truth about what happened to me, and I know what you're gonna say about time traveling.
Jay: Actually, I was gonna tell you you made the right call. For the past year... I've been detecting antimatter signatures across the Multiverse. Now, we don't know their origin, but if my algorithm is correct, all Earths could be in danger.
Barry: Then we have to find a way to break through that wall.
Jay: Ah, your body never could. But maybe your mind can.

Patty: What do you want from me?
Turtle: The thing most precious to The Flash - you.

Joe: That storage space you sent us to was booby-trapped.
James: You can never be too careful with your private things.
Barry: You were protecting nothing. Your secret stash was empty.
James: What do you mean?
Joe: No firearms, none of your explosives, nothing.
Barry: Whatever you had in there, it was stolen. All of it.
James: No. He's stealing my legacy. Whoever this is... you need to find him. I will not let this... this...
Joe: Trickster?
James: That is *my* name! Mine!
Joe: What was in that room? What were you keeping there?
James: A bomb. A really big bomb.
Barry: How big?
James: Bye-bye, Central City.

Chester P. Runk: Guys, satellites just picked up one hell of a cryokinetic spike on the southside of Keystone.
Allegra: Frost said she might be going somewhere she used to work.
Barry: O'Shaughnessy's. Let's go.
Allegra: Wh... you still want me to come? After I lied to you?
Barry: Someone's gotta convince Frost to come home.

Wally: So the plan isn't to just stay still and do nothing, right?
Barry: No.
Iris: Barry, you heard Lyla. You can't do this on your own.
Barry: I don't plan to.

Dr. Harrison Wells: I know you took the V-9, Allen.
Barry: No, I haven't.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Oh, no?
Barry: No. I took it but I haven't taken it... yet.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Good.
Barry: Tell me why I shouldn't.
Dr. Harrison Wells: [scoffs] Figure it out.
Barry: If the game is already rigged, why can't I level the playing field? I mean, if everyone else is cheating, how can... I want to be fast enough to stop Zoom and ANY speedster that tries to hurt my friends. Shouldn't I use everything in my power to do that?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Y'wanna take a shortcut? Is that right? You wanna take a shortcut? Remember this: You lose a chunk of your humanity every time you compromise your values.

Godspeed: At last! True speed for a true god!
The: You got what you wanted, Heart. Now what?
Godspeed: Now you die, Flash. By my hand!

Breacher: I feel a code-17 breach in progress. We have to leave now, Cynthia.
Cisco: Cyn - Cynthia? Cynthia. What's your dad's name?
Breacher: Josh.
Cisco: [laughs] Cynthia and Josh. That's great. Not so scary now, Cynthia.
Gypsy: Keep calling me that. See what happens.
Cisco: All right. See you around... Gypsy.

Iris: Hey, uh, you saved my dissertation, right? Detective Pretty Boy. Sorry, uh, that's just what my dad calls you. Although, he's not wrong. You are a boy, and you are pretty... and, uh, that did not come out right.
Detective: I'll take any compliment I can get from Joe West or his lovely daughter.
Iris: Um, uh, well, do you have a name, Detective?
Detective: It's Eddie.

Barry: Aren't you the one who told me life isn't about playing defense? Sometimes the only way to succeed is by working the offense.
Joe: I think at the time we were talking about your high school football tryouts.
Barry: You said you'd never bring that up again.

Nora: [written in time language in Nora's journal, that Sherloque Wells is eventually able to decode] TRANSLATION JANUARY 24, 2019 This is hard. Harder than I ever thought possible. All of the things I'm learning, every conversation I have with Team Flash, everything I'm seeing of my Mom and Dad... they're the perfect couple. I catch them sometimes just looking at one another across the room. Dad smiles and Mom can't help but smile back. Their love is just so... I hate the idea that someday I'll have to leave, go back to our time. But once Cicada has been caught, there won't be a reason for me to be here. I don't know what things will be like when I come home, but I know I'll be a better speedster because of my experience here. As well as because of all of your encouragement. I know the road hasn't always been smooth, but I'm grateful to have you as my partner. Thank you. JANUARY 21, 2019 As promised, I haven't told my parents anything about you. Sometimes I wonder if I can keep this up... the white lies... the half truths. But then I hear your words echoing in my head "tread lightly," think of the ramifications." And I stay the course. I'm focusing on your other lessons. How to control my speed, how to channel my emotions. And I've become more aware of the emotions of everyone around me. My father is teaching me many of the same things as you, in fact. How to stay in the moment - look around, and take my time with my choices. It's funny. when I first came to this time, I thought it was to run faster. Now I find myself constantly slowing down. DECEMBER 1, 2018 I have mastered the art of stopping. This may not seem like a super big deal, but when you're running at Mach two, stopping is seriously hard. Dad taught me a pretty schway trick... turn your heel into the stop, not away. It's kind of like if you're skidding on ice and you turn your car into

Spartan: [First meeting after Oliver's death] Oliver?
Green: I can explain...
Spartan: Doesn't matter, man.

Barry: [to Iris West-Allen] I don't have to run when I'm with you.

Iris: What's wrong?
Barry: I'm still sore from our little double date with Amunet and Goldface. So, so weird.
Iris: Maybe you should stay home today.
Barry: No, no. Are you working on more Black Hole stuff?
Iris: Yeah. I think I am getting really close to taking this son of a bitch down.

Nora: I shouldn't have lied. I just wanted to see you so badly and spend a day with you. Go for a run for the first time together.
Barry: [emotionally] I missed all your firsts. I was so worried about screwing up your childhood and screwing up our family, but... I'm not even there.

Joe: [leaving with Wally to face Alchemy] Hey, you remember when I said that you remind me of myself when I was a kid? I was never this brave.

Oliver: So why come to me? Something tells me you didn't just run 600 miles to say "hi" to a friend.
Barry: All my life, I've wanted to... just do more - be more - and now I am, and the first chance I get to help someone, I screw up. What if Wells is right? What if I'm not a hero. What if I'm some guy who was struck by lightning?
Oliver: I don't think that bolt of lighting struck you, Barry. I think it chose you.
Barry: I'm just not sure I'm like you, Oliver. I don't know if I can be some... vigilante.
Oliver: You can be better, because you can inspire people in a way that I never could, watching over your city like a guardian angel... making a difference... saving people... in a flash. Take your own advice: Wear a mask.
[rappels to the next building]
Barry: Cool.
Oliver: [sees Barry runs off in a flash] Cool.

The: [in the Pipeline with Godspeed] Guys, it might not understand me.
Chester P. Runk: You think it might be a... drone?
The: Maybe. Queue up your translator.
Prisoner: A translation will not be necessary.
The: So you can speak.
Prisoner: Yes. And we have much to discuss, Barry Allen.

Iris: We're next, you know?
Barry: Wait, you want to have - what do you mean? You want to have a baby now? What do you mean? Right now?
Iris: Barry.
Barry: What?
Iris: Relax.
Barry: I'm fine.
Iris: Are you?
Barry: Yeah.
Iris: I just meant someday. Not anytime in the near future.

Joe: I need your help defusing an explosive.
Harrison: Uh, what kind of a device is it, Captain?
Joe: Uh, it is a Michael 112 composition Charlie 4 block demolition charge.
Harrison: [looking it up with his gauntlet] C4 block demolition charge. Yeah. Got it. Okay, so, easy. Open the outer panel. You're gonna see four wires. Pull the green one.
Joe: [opening the panel] There are more than four wires, and they're all green.

Reverse: Hey! I love what you've done with the place.
Chester P. Runk: We're gonna find a way to stop you.
Reverse: Maybe. Maybe not. But either way...
[fires a bolt of electricity at Chester]
Reverse: And just so you know... Just so you're aware of the whole... "Timeline" of events here, after I kill you I'm gonna kill your boss because I don't care what an upgraded ancestor of mine might say. Barry Allen's life is mine... to take... and so is yours.

Felicity: How'd it go with Oliver?
Barry: You know, to be honest, not exactly the partnership I thought it would be.
Felicity: Oh, did he really do the thing with the arrows?
Barry: [exasperated] You knew he was gonna shoot me?
Felicity: Well, it is practically impossible to tell when Oliver's making a joke.

Sue: Why would you call my parents?
Ralph: So, that diamond that you gave me, it turns out that it has a map for Black Hole's stash house. I did some recon.
Sue: Oh! I thought breaking and entering was a line Elongated Man didn't cross.
Ralph: [shushing her] Will you just... inside voices, please.

Kid: Looks like you remembered how to save the day.
The: Like riding a bike.

Caitlin: I wonder what Jay would say if he was here right now.
Cisco: "What's a Kamikaze?" And then you'd spend ten minutes explaining it.
Caitlin: And he'd say, "Just kidding. We have those on Earth-2."

Oliver: Kendra, there is a reason this guy is after you. Think.
Cisco: Look, man, we just came out here to hide out for a bit until we figure things out, so you can just take it down...
Oliver: You came here because you need our help. This is what our help looks like.
Barry: Oliver, I just saved you guys from whatever the hell Flock of Seagulls was about to do. At least you can do is...
Oliver: Barry, none of us has superpowers. You brought Kendra into our world without knowing who she is or what this dude that is after her is looking for. You made all of us unsafe. So maybe YOU ask the questions.

Joseph: I need your help after all, Allen. Federal protection. The full Joe West treatment.
Allegra: What happened to your killer minions?
Barry: [seeing his face] Eva got to them first, didn't she?
Joseph: You gonna help me or not?
[Nash scoffs]
Joseph: Look, get me into protection, and Joe can get out of it. One call from me and he's sleeping in his own bed tonight.
Ralph: [scoffing, too] You're a real piece of work. You know that?
Joseph: That sounded like a "yes" to me.

Allegra: Iris has trusted Barry against the odds before, like when Bloodwork infected him, and she was right.
Iris: If there's even a chance that this could be real, I can't give up, and you wouldn't want me to.
Cecile: Is that what you think? You think I gave up? Oh, my God. You think I don't wake up alone every morning in our bed praying to God that all of this was nothing but a bad dream? Iris, I have done everything that I can to just keep moving forward since I lost Joe. I did it so that I could be there for you and for Jenna, for this team, and you come in here and you want to shove his death in my face? He was the father of my child!
Iris: And my father!
Cecile: Fine. If you insist on pursuing this lie, then we will save Barry without you.
Iris: Fine. You save him your way, I'll save him mine.
[she leaves, and Allegra follows her out]
Catlin: Okay, Cecile. What do you want to do?
Cecile: We find Barry before Despero does first, no matter what it takes.

Cisco: "This house is bitchin'."

Joe: Sergeant Kramer, we need to talk.
Kristen: I'm in a bit of a hurry, Captain. Is there a problem?
Joe: Yes, there is. You mobilized my task force to harass someone who, from all accounts, is innocent, off of a phone call. There's no way in hell I would have authorized that.
Kristen: Captain...
Joe: Sergeant. We're not supposed to work that way.
Kristen: That's your point of view, and I respect that. But I also respect the evidence. Dr. Snow matches Killer Frost in 80 nodal points of facial recognition. Their known whereabouts over the last few months line up perfectly. And her prints were all over that delivery van. What's your conclusion?
Joe: I promise you, Caitlin Snow and Killer Frost are not the same person. And even if they were, I doubt that they wouldn't wear gloves as they went on a killing spree. This evidence, this anonymous phone call? It's like someone is trying to frame Frost.
Kristen: Okay, then who?
Joe: I don't know, but Frost helps keep this city safe. Hell, she's saved my life; more than once.
Kristen: She's still a criminal. Captain, you seem like a good cop, and I know that Dr. Snow is a friend of your family. But if you really want to honor your badge, you need to think about what is truly best for the public good.

Dr. Meena Dhawan: I can run at the speed of sound, but you...
The: Can run a lot faster than that. Look, the point is, you can't outrun me. So why don't you just tell me who you are and what's really going on?
Dr. Meena Dhawan: Look, I'm not a supervillain. That fire was an accident.
The: I know. But you risked people's lives to steal a battery.
Dr. Meena Dhawan: And I'm so sorry about that. I'm not a natural speedster like you.
The: That's why you've been so hard to trace. Your speed's temporary.
Dr. Meena Dhawan: Exactly. You see, my... associate and I found a way to generate my own speed source. I'm still trying to work out the kinks, so the effects only last a few minutes. I thought the battery could help extend the window, and I figured why sped another four years calibrating sodium nitrate cells when I could just borrow the only one I'd already made? I designed the original Newton Battery when I was a young engineer working here at IVO.
The: The Newton Battery was invented by Meena Dhawan.
Dr. Meena Dhawan: [unmasks herself] It's Dr. Meena Dhawan, actually.
The: You-you're the CEO of Fast Track Labs. Your book, "Quantum Gravity and the Universe", I've-I've read it three times. You're a genius.
Dr. Meena Dhawan: That's surprising and very flattering. Unfortunately, this genius intellect hasn't been any help in mastering these new abilities. That's why I've been trying to take a low profile, running trials with my team. The truth is... I just want to use my gifts to help people.
The: Well, I'm glad to hear that. I-when I first got my speed, I... I had a mentor, someone to coach me on how to use my powers, so if you're interested.
Dr. Meena Dhawan: You'd really do that for me?
[they shake hands]
Dr. Meena Dhawan: Thank you. I promise you won't regret this.

Khione: Don't worry, Cecile. You can do this.
Cecile: Right, and if by this you mean, just go on and astrally project myself into my future body, protect Barry from the Negative Speed Force, and save all of temporal existence, before coming back and teaching Jenna her multiplication tables, yeah, you're right. That's easy. Easy peasy.

The: Novikov, stop. You don't have to do this.
Frida: I know I don't have to. I want to.

Doctor: Clariss. Clariss!
Edward: Who's there?
Doctor: It's time to wake up.

Ramsey: [having knocked out Team Flash] Someone didn't drink their champagne.
Chester P. Runk: Uh, bro, I'm not really much of a drinker.
Ramsey: That's no fun. Now I'm gonna have to bring the party to you.
Chester P. Runk: [Allegra is animated as a blood sister] Sweet Duane Jones.
[Cecile, Kramer, and Singh are all animated, too]
Chester P. Runk: Oh, no, frak this.

Trevor: 15 years, Thawne. Tell me, how's it feel to know you're about to become extinct?
Eobard: I guess time will tell.
Trevor: I'm gonna miss the hell out of you. Especially our rehabilitation time. How about a taste of what's to come?
[gives Thawne an electric shock]
Eobard: Ironic, isn't it? The same thing that gives you your powers is gonna end you.

Sherloque: [to Nash] He... is... Coming...

Cisco: Thawne.
Eobard: That's right. Now, where were we?
[raising his hand]
Eobard: Goodbye.
[trying to vibrate his hand into Cisco's chest, nothing happens; confused, he tries again]
Cisco: [realizing] You're in Nash's body. No powers.

Joe: Why'd you do that?
Iris: Thanks for the hang? Is he your son or your age-inappropriate buddy?
Joe: Look, I know the dynamic is weird. I'm just trying to figure it out.
Iris: From my perspective, it seems like you're ignoring something that could... Oh, I don't know, get Wally killed.
Joe: The fact that Wally even wants to get to know me is the big win here. So, in the future, could you try not chasing him out of the house?
Joe: Look, Dad, I'll play along if that's what you want. But which you, exactly, are you trying to let him get to know? Because the person that I saw tonight... I don't recognize that dad.

Cisco: What did you do to my bazooka?
Dr. Harry Wells: Well, I turned your bazooka into an embiggening bazooka, with the help of the dwarfstar alloy we stole from Rundine's apartment, and improving upon Ray Palmer's amateurish schematics, presto chango, embiggening bazooka.

[Jesse and Wally are in the Time Vault]
Jesse: Can we come out now?
Dr. Harrison Wells,53194: No!

Barry: What did Joan say?
Iris: It's true. Jay got his speed back when the Speed Force was reborn.
Chester P. Runk: And then those clones took him.
Barry: They're gonna kill Jay.
Bart: I won't let them.
Barry: Bart, we've got this under control.
Bart: No, you don't.
Barry: Okay, we're working on a plan. Just give us some time.
Bart: We don't have time, Dad!
Chester P. Runk: Uh, guys, I'm-I'm triangulating the Godspeeds' comm signals now. It came from Zauriel Cathedral on Morrison Ave.
Bart: Well, that's where I'm going.
Nora: Bart, wait.
[he whooshes away]
Nora: Dad, they knew how Bart would react if they took Uncle Jay. He knows he's running into a trap, but he doesn't care. You have to stop him. You have to save him.
Barry: We have to save him.

Ralph: I'm back. I look like a Hemsworth.

Cecile: Babe, this is a first!
Joe: We've worked together before.
Cecile: We have, Detective, but anytime we did anything even close to this, I didn't have my abilities.

Joe: Mmm, I was thinking about what you said, about part of being The Flash is that you have the ability to do amazing things that nobody else can do. And we see now that a hundred years from now, you'll still be doing them. But the other part is, you're gonna be loaded with sacrifices, and you're gonna have hard choices to make, And there's gonna be a lot of things where, eventually, you'll have to let them go. You gotta be ready for that.
Barry: I am. I'm ready.
Joe: That's my boy.

Iris: Hey, you okay?
Chester P. Runk: Yeah. I need more neuro-fiber to fix the memory machine, so we can use it like we did against Grodd, but we don't have enough supplies here. So I gotta go back to my garage. Shouldn't be here anyway.
Iris: Wait, Chester. Yes, you should, Chester. I mean, this is - this is your lab.
Chester P. Runk: No, Iris. It's not.
Iris: What?
Chester P. Runk: Look, I didn't come to S.T.A.R. Labs to replace Cisco. I came here to work with him. And I want to do a good job more than anything. But I saw Barry in trouble today, Iris, I didn't even know where to start. I thought to myself, you know, what would Cisco do? Decided I'm gonna act confident and brave. Act like I had it all figured out.
Iris: Chester, confidence isn't what made Cisco Cisco.
Chester P. Runk: I know. What made Cisco Cisco was the connections and the love that he had for you all. Don't you get it? I don't have those bonds, Iris. I barely know you guys. And I can't help thinking that I just knew Team Flash a little bit better, that I would have been able to figure out that that wasn't the real Cecile. And then this entire thing just would...
Iris: Okay. Okay. Chester, Cisco didn't form those bonds overnight. It took time. It took patience. And we all have your back. Just like we know that you've got ours.
Chester P. Runk: Thanks. And look, Iris, I promise, okay? From today on, I'm really gonna up my game, and I'm gonna, like...
[realizes something]
Chester P. Runk: I think I know where Psycho-Cecile is going. Back at the museum, the mask said it wanted Cecile to be its host for eternity. But the legends says that once the mask feeds on the host's mind, it moves on to another.
Iris: So if Cecile is an empath, then maybe that makes her a stronger host.
Chester P. Runk: But not strong enough. She would need something to amplify her mental abilities. To create a permanent food source.
Iris: Okay. So where do we find a device like that?
Chester P. Runk: In our basement.

Cisco: Definitely some kind of wood fragment.
Iris: And you think those will lead us to where Cicada's hiding?
Cisco: We can find out. We can cross-reference this, see what kind of wood it is, then see where we end up.

Uniformed: Need our help, Flash?
Kid: Nah. When I'm done with this fool, he might.
Kid: What have you got against my city?
The: The city's just fine. It's the people in it who need to be educated. And I have no rival! Especially not you.

Detective: Second robbery this week.
Joe: The teller IDed Clyde Mardon as the shooter.
Detective: What? Oh, jeez, the Mardon brothers are back?
Captain: What do we got?
Joe: Perps took the bank, shot out the cameras, and as a chaser, killed the security guard over there. I got unis kicking in doors of known Mardon brothers associates.
Captain: CSI been over it?
Joe: Uh... no.
Captain: Where's Allen?

Barry: You okay?
Iris: Yeah. I thought I missed out on my chance to connect with Nora, but now that she's staying, I get another shot.
Barry: If you could have seen her on that plane, you'd know that you guys are already connected.
Iris: Really?
Barry: She was fearless, just like you.

Barry: This is why you pulled me out the Speed Force? Buy me a meal?
Jay: Because you were about to reset the timeline again after screwing it all up. Oh, yeah, I know about that.
Barry: How did you...
Jay: After your not-so-subtle reaction when you first met me. Harry told me all that happened with Zoom and your mom and your dad, so I decided I'd keep my eye on you for a bit.
Barry: He'd tell you anything else?
Jay: He did. I'm your father's doppelgänger. Sorry about that.
Barry: It's just... really weird.
Jay: And really sad, too... I'm sure. Having a loss like that in your life, I see why you'd wanna erase it. Who wouldn't try to save their parents? I understand that, Barry, completely. But the thing is, there are consequences to time travel.
Barry: I have heard all of this before.
Jay: Not from me you haven't. I'm not some Doctor with a theory, Barry. I'm a speedster, like you, who's travelled in time, and made these same mistakes you are making right now. Here, let me show you something.
Barry: Okay, you know what?
Jay: Humor me, kid. This coffee cup right here.
Barry: All right, yeah.
Jay: Think of it as the space-time-continuum. Whenever you go back in time it breaks.
Barry: For real? I mean...
Jay: Now... you can reset the timeline, you can try to fix it, but no matter how hard you try... it's never gonna be exactly how it was.
Barry: Look, I've learned all this stuff that I didn't know before, okay? I'm not gonna make the same...
Barry: Mistakes.
Jay: Yeah, what you just said right there? That is the paradox of time travel, and also the paradox of life. I mean, if I only knew then what I know now.
Barry: Why have these powers if I can't go back and fix what I broke?
Jay: We're not gods, we're men, who, for whatever reason, have been given extraordinary abilities. The question you need to ask yourself is, what kind of hero are you gonna be? Are you just gonna take a do-over every time you make a mistake? Or will you live with them and move forward?

Eobard: So she finally came clean. Or did you figure it out all by yourself?
Barry: One wasn't enough? You had to try to take my daughter from me too? MY DAUGHTER!
Eobard: I knew you'd react like this. You're always so emotional, which is why I had keep all of this from you. You can't blame the Little Runner, Barry. She just wanted to spend time with her dad. Don't hold that against her. Consider it a condemned man's last request.
Barry: You always thought you were so much smarter than us, Thawne. But you lost. And now you're finally gonna get what you deserve.

Iris: [points out a photo] Her. Dr. Komiyo Hoshi.
Cisco: Hoshi... She went missing 4 years ago. She's an astronomer out of Tokyo with the power to fuel starlight, but her meta-powers aren't precise enough to do the kind of damage you showed me in those photos.
Kamilla: What if she used the Photon rifle to focus them?
Cisco: Good thinking, maybe the reflector chip could condense her UV photon emissions.
Kamilla: The rifle is the weapon.
Cisco: No, she's the ammunition.
Allegra: So Black Hole turned her into some kind of evil light doctor.
Cisco: So we've got a brand new, more powerful, murder-happy Dr. Light on our hands. Another new meta surprise courtesy of Earth frakking Prime.

Savitar: Still here, pretender? Still trying to find your place?
H.R. Wells: I found my place. It's standing here with these people, against you.
Savitar: You know, the sad thing is that you live. You survived my wrath. The coward. Irony.
Barry: Where are you? You said that I trapped you in the future, where?
Savitar: The only place that you could think of. The only place that could hold me.
Barry: How long have you been in prison?
Savitar: Long enough to lose my mind several times over. It's only my will that keeps me on this side of sanity.
Cisco: You know, it's funny, when I think of sanity, I don't necessarily think of Savitar.
Savitar: Well, that's because you're small, Cisco. You've always been small. Reverb told you that you could have been a god. But instead, you'd rather work as... tech support.
Barry: You want to tell me why we're enemies?
Savitar: Because we had to be. Only one of us could live. You thought that Thawne and Zoom were your biggest foes, but... But it's me. It's always been me, Barry.

The: Whoever you are, if you're looking for a fight, you found one.
Chester P. Runk: [running in with Ray and Iris] Oh, snap.
Ray: Time to let the Flash do what he does best and kick some butt.

Barry: It's not okay for her to work with Thawne. You saw him. You said he's manipulating her.
Iris: And I said that he cares about her. He's worried about her safety...
Barry: No, he needs her, Iris. He needs her.
Iris: Or... he's changed. Barry, Thawne is the one that convinced me to come back home and try and patch things up with you.
Barry: Thawne. Thawne gave you advice?
Iris: Look, I know it sounds insane, and I know this must be hard for you to hear, but Barry, ever since I got back home, the same question keeps running through my mind. What if Nora is right? What if Thawne really is trying to redeem himself and that he does want to stop Cicada, and the only reason that Nora hasn't come back home is because she knows that you don't trust her? Look... Barry, having Nora in our lives has made us better people. Isn't it possible that she did the same thing to Thawne?

Cisco: [as Barry sits with a sleeping Caitlin] She's out like a light, huh?
Barry: Yeah. Jay really did a number on her.
Cisco: It's not like he exactly used kid gloves on the rest of us.

Cecile: Barry, why are you saying all these things all of a sudden? It's like the last six months, this... living nightmare never even happened.
Barry: Six months?
Cecile: What are you doing? I can't do this with you. Barry, I can't do it.
Barry: Cecile, listen to me. Joe's not dead.
Cecile: Yes! Yes, he is. He's dead. And I am trying to move on. Why won't you let me do that?

Cisco: Oh, my God. It's like "Twister" in there, the movie, not the game. Satellite's picking up two distinct funnel patterns. Tornadoes measuring at F3 on the Fujita scale. This guy's like a Weather Wizard or something.

Cisco: What are you doing on our Earth?
Harrison: What am I doing? I'm searching for an artifact that happens to contain the same particles... I'm currently reading off you.
Iris: What?
Harrison: Although...
Cisco: What - what part - particles of what?
Harrison: Eternium.
Cisco: Eternium?
Harrison: Eternium's a Multiversal element, all right? Although the readings were stronger in the alley.
Cisco: Listen, Indiana, I don't know how you do things on your Earth, but this ain't "Temple of Doom." And what is Eternium supposed to be, anyway? Some kind of stolen mystical element from the tiki gods that you suddenly have to return?
Harrison: Look, there's no such thing as mystical mumbo jumbo or gods. What there are are meta-humans, aliens, and false gods worshiped by simple-minded people that find comfort in myths. I dispel those myths. You people are no help.
Cisco: Newsflash, Nash. We've actually done this dance before.
Harrison: Is that right?
Iris: Yeah.
Cisco: That's right. It usually starts off rocky, especially between you and me, but eventually, we bond, and you learn to embrace that sensitive side. So why don't you just drop the act and show me that warm, compassionate, smart guy, that I know you to be.
Harrison: Let me ask you a question. Do I look like I want to hold hands?
[Nash tries going for his fanny pack but Cisco grabs it first]
Harrison: Interesting.
Cisco: If you want your toys back, you just might have to.

Barry: We made an arrangement. We cure him and then Grace.
Iris: Okay.
Orlin: Why are we here and not at a hospital?
Barry: We have to be sure that the cure is successful.
Cisco: We created it. We're the ones who know how it works.
Caitlin: Once administered, the cure will take 60 seconds to eliminate the meta-human powers in your system. That means the wound will then open. You'll need me to suture it shut so you don't bleed out.
Orlin: Why not Doc Ambres?
Iris: She's being held for questioning.
Orlin: No, it's Ambres, or we're done.
Barry: All right, we'll get her.
Orlin: If anything goes wrong, of if you're lying to me, I'll kill every... last... one of you.

Ralph: Hey, has Barry joined a gang yet? I've got some friends on the inside. I can make some calls.
Iris: [hitting him with the folder she's holding] Shut up, Ralph.
Ralph: Okay. I will stop helping now.

Savitar: It's like looking in a mirror.
[indicating the burn scars on his face]
Savitar: Well... not quite.

Dr. Martin Stein: You came back, Jefferson. Thank you.
Jefferson: Well, like my coach always said, "out of yourself and in to the team".

Barry: You know, it's ironic. I was just saying how much you remind me of the old Wells, and now here we are, just like I did with him, standing on either side of this glass with me asking you why.
Dr. Harry Wells: I'm doing what I have to do to save my daughter.
Barry: Yeah, at any cost, right? The cost of Joe's daughter.
Dr. Harry Wells: I told you I would betray you. I told you I would have to choose.
Joe: You chose wrong.
Dr. Harry Wells: Really, did I? Because I just sacrificed my daughter. Because I just sentenced my daughter to death to save your son.
Joe: You want a pat on the back?
Dr. Harry Wells: I want you to send me home. Send me back to Earth-2. Think about it. Zoom wants you to get faster. He wants me to have more speed force in you for when he finally takes it. Send me back, use the implosion reactor to shut down the breach. Shut down all the breaches. Close them all and Zoom will never be able to cross over ever again, and that'll be the end of it.
Barry: What about your daughter?
Dr. Harry Wells: Jesse's my battle to fight, not yours.

Cecile: Barry, you remember what Chester said. If you use your speed again, it could kill you this time.
Barry: I have to try. If I die or it ages me to 100, I'm not afraid anymore. You're right, Cecile, I can't outrun time, but I can embrace it, and I can choose to spend every moment I have left trying to save innocent lives.
Cecile: Then run, Barry. Run.

Cisco: [to Caitlin] Are we about to be the Grinches this year?

Cisco: So what are we gonna do?
Barry: I don't know. I mean, I'm not sure yet. I can't get close enough to her without triggering bad luck.
Cisco: Seriously, that girl's a hazard. Hazard, that's the one. Maybe that means the jinx is gone.
Barry: Her powers only work in her immediate vicinity. She didn't jinx us.

Hartley: Bakudan kage, It's Japanese.
Cisco: How can you speak six languages and sound like a dick in every one of them.

Ralph: How does it feel to be up and running again?
Nora: Super frickin' schway.
Killer: Uh, wanna know what's not super frickin' schway? Cicada knowing exactly when and where our secret transport was taking place.
Sherloque: Mm. Inside job, right? Cicada clearly has a inside man, only...
Iris: Only what kind of cop would help Cicada kill innocent people?
Barry: One that's going to have to answer to D.A. Cecile Horton.

Mark: You, Caitlin, and whoever else is part of your S.T.A.R. Labs posse think you get to just sit up here in your ivory tower judging who's good and who's bad. But guess what? Life isn't binary. It's everything in between. Now, you don't trust me? That's fine. But you cannot decide who someone's gonna be today based on what they did yesterday. And you should know that better than anybody else... Killer Frost.

Iris: AMAZO copied all of their powers, and now it's on the hunt for more. Cisco, there's got to be something you can do to stop it.
Cisco: How do you stop a T-3000 that kills for breakfast?
Sherloque: It's a computer, right? So just turn it off.
Cisco: I hate it when you're right.

Cecile: You are no hero. You are a monster.
Despero: I'm going to ask you one last time, Ms. Horton. And if I don't like your answer, you'll join your friends in the afterlife. Now... the Flash. Where is he?
Cecile: I told you, I don't know!
Despero: You know what? I believe you.
[as he opens his third eye, she begins gasping in pain; he then reacts upon hearing a high-pitched beeping]
Despero: Ahh! No, what is this?
[a wave of energy passes over him as the timeline is restored]

The: I know who you are.
Savitar: It's about time.
The: Yes, it is. Everything with you is about time, isn't it? The past, the present, the future - you know all of it, right? And you know everything about me! About Joe! About Wally. And Iris! You know our strengths. You know our fears. You know how much we love each other. And you know how to use that love against us. All this time we thought that we couldn't stop you because you were one step ahead, but that's not it! You don't just know what's gonna happen to us. You were there. You lived it. You remember... when you were me.
[the back of Savitar's suit opens up and a man climbs out revealing to be Barry's time remnant]
Savitar: Like I told you from the beginning... I am the future Flash.

[first lines]
Heat: Coming back 'round!
Captain: Yeah, to die!

Felicity: There's a whole new guy at work that you didn't even know about?
Barry: Yeah. And he's worked there for almost a year. And he doesn't like me very much, apparently.
Felicity: Well, that's impossible. Everybody likes Barry Allen. You're like pudding. Everybody likes pudding.

Cisco: Are you yelling at my satellite?
Ralph: No, I was just encouraging it. Although Sally here doesn't wanna be encouraged.
Cisco: Okay. One, her name isn't Sally. Two... I'm sorry. Barry and Caitlin. We've lost them both before, and it just feels like we just got them back. Well, sorry I was a dick.
Ralph: You weren't a dick. I'm the dick. Private and public.

Iris: Are you ready?
Ralph: All set to hit 88 miles an hour!

Barry: Where did that storm come from?
Cisco: A storm like that coming and going, disappearing in a matter of minutes, it shouldn't be possible.
Caitlin: Unless someone was making it possible. I mean, we've seen that before.
Iris: Weather Wizard. But Mark Mardon is serving a life sentence at Iron Heights.
Barry: Let's make sure he's doing just that.
[to Cisco and Caitlin]
Barry: Let us know if any other weather anomalies pop up on the radar.

Joe: So, you said there was an emergency. Where's the fire?
Cecile: Ah, it's funny you should put it like that. Lucius Coolidge.
Barry: Who?
Iris: Heat Monger.
Cecile: The worst arsonist Central City's seen since Mick Rory went off the grid. That is until Flash here stopped him.
Barry: What's Flash?

Joey: Two years I was trapped in the ground in that blackness. I couldn't see, I couldn't feel, but I could still hate.
Daniel: Joey?
Joey: D'y'ever wonder what it felt like when you dropped me in that vat of boiling tar? Since I went in head-first, I actually felt my ears and nose burn off, the pain of my eyeballs searing was unimaginable, but it was the way that it burned down my throat as I tried to breath that I thought was really special.

The: I see her.
Caitlin: She's getting away in a Prius.
The: Last time I checked, the Flash is faster than a Prius.

Chester P. Runk: See? One man's trash is another man's...
Cisco: Another man's reason for a a tetanus shot?
Chester P. Runk: I already got my tetanus shot.

Mark: Is that a genome sequencer?
Caitlin: Yes.
Mark: And did you steal it?
Caitlin: I borrowed it.
Mark: Whatever, Caitlin. Game recognizes game.

Psych: I can feel all your fear, Central City, and it feels exquisite.

Joe: I know how this looks. But there are other criminals that use ice to commit crimes, like Leonard Snart.
Kristen: Snart was a man with a gun. Mr. Runk, you're our new technical consultant on meta-human affairs. What's your take on all this?
Chester P. Runk: Uh, well, um, ma'am, uh...
[taking a device out of his kit]
Chester P. Runk: Dark matter levels... uh, dark matter levels here are... oh... well, they're... they're off the charts.
Barry: That doesn't mean it's Frost. Look, you see the pattern in these ice crystals here? They're dendritic, like tree branches. Frost's ice crystals are usually hexagonal.
Kristen: It's Killer Frost, Officer Allen. And you seem to know a lot about her powers.
Barry: Yeah, I've worked her crime scenes, and she's never killed anyone.
Kristen: Until now, apparently.

Jaco: Wait, so, saving hundreds of lives...
The: Try thousands.
Jaco: Saving that many lives is what I just did?
The: Yeah. Looks like you're the father Harold deserves after all.

Cisco: It's like your junk has been burned into my brain.
Dr. Harry Wells: You're welcome.

Ultraviolet: Looking for me, cousin?

Reverse: [wreaking havoc on the city] How does it feel, Flash? How does it feel knowing you could've prevented all this if only you'd killed me when you had the chance? Believe me...
[cracking his neck]
Reverse: That's a mistake I won't make.

Joe: We did it? We brought dark matter into Central City?
Barry: When you pulled me out of the Speed Force, yeah.
Caitlin: All the people on that bus, we turned them into metas.

Dr. Martin Stein: The calculations. There is a... a danger.
Barry: I know. I'm ready to take the risk.
Dr. Martin Stein: No, not just to you, but to everyone. Wells didn't tell us everything. Barry, even if you do reach the right speed, colliding with the hydrogen particle, there is a chance that explosion could create a singularity.
Caitlin: What's a singularity?
Cisco: It's a black hole.
Barry: We could destroy Central City.
Dr. Martin Stein: For starters. If we create a singularity here and then cannot control it, we could be looking at a global catastrophe.
Cisco: So long and thanks for all the fish.

Sue: John owns that warehouse. That's where the deal will go down.
Ralph: [as he moves to get out, so does she] Where are you going?
Sue: I'm going with you.
Ralph: No, no, no, no, no.
Sue: Oh, look, I get it. Chivalry's your brand.
Ralph: You're an MIT grad, speak six languages, and you play polo. You belong in a country club, not in the field.
Sue: You belong in the 19th century with your Victorian "save the damsel in distress" crap.
Ralph: Loring doesn't know that I'm coming, so I have the element of surprise. You, on the other hand, he might kinda know that you're coming. Translation: stay in the car, please.

Barry: I appreciate the enthusiasm, but I think we need to take a different approach. No powers, no crazy plans. The Flash can't convince Cicada to stop this, but... maybe... I can.

Savitar: [speaking through Julian] Hello, Barry. It's been a while.
Barry: Savitar?
Savitar: None of you are on your knees. It's a smart move to bow before a deity.
Barry: You're not God.
Savitar: To be a god, you just have to make people believe you are.
Iris: No one believes in you.
Savitar: You should, Iris. I hold the power of life and death over all of you.
Caitlin: How do you know so much about us?
Savitar: I know you, Caitlin. Cisco, Joe, Wally. The fake Wells. I know your fears and I know your weaknesses. I know you better than you know yourselves. I know your destinies. One shall betray you. One shall fall. One will suffer a fate far worse than death. This is the knowledge I have for you. About your everlasting damnation.
Barry: Who are you?
Savitar: I am the future, Flash.
Barry: What do you want from us?
Savitar: Everything! Everything you took from me, I want it back. And I'm gonna take it back. Then, I will destroy you.
Barry: They why haven't you already? If you're all-powerful, then why don't you just gp ahead and kill is all know, be done with it? Because you can't.
Savitar: You did this to me. You trapped me in eternity. Your future self - you did this to me, Barry. And now the age of my revenge rises. My freedom is at hand. You will feel my wrath. The wrath of Savitar!

Barry: I'm talking to the Speed Force.
[Joe nods]
Barry: Isn't that like saying I'm having a conversation with gravity, or light, or...
[Joe nods, whimsically]

Reverse: There's no point in running. You're all going to die.

Barry: Deon?
Deon: You okay?
Barry: Yeah, I...
Deon: [helping him to his feet] Good. 'Cause we got a lot to talk about.

Cisco: Looks like things between you and Julian are a little frosty, huh?
[Caitlin gives him a look]
Cisco: It's too soon for the cold puns?

Barry: My name is Barry Allen, and I am the fastest man alive. When I was a child, I saw my mother killed by something impossible. My father went to prison for her murder. Then an accident made me the impossible. To the outside world, I am an ordinary forensic scientist, but secretly, I use my speed to fight crime and find others like me. And one day I'll find who killed my mother and get justice for my father. That day is today.

Nora: Mom thinks that she had good reason to suppress my powers in the future, but she doesn't know what that reason is.
Barry: I'm sure it's a good one. Look, Nora, I don't have to visit the future to know what kind of mother Iris is gonna be. She cares about family more than anyone I've ever met, okay? I support her decisions; past, present, and future.
Nora: Then I guess I need to rethink what the meaning of family is.
Iris: [she starts to leave] Nora, wait.
Nora: Do you know what hurt the most about learning I had powers? Not hearing it from my mom.

Dr. Tanya Lamden: Shay, a team from S.T.A.R. Labs is here. They have something you may want; a meta-cure for your condition. Trust me, their preliminary analysis on reversing meta-gene transfigurations proves there is a strong chance it could work, especially in icthyological prospects.
[amused laugh]
Dr. Tanya Lamden: No, I'm not just showing off. It's their research.
[to the others]
Dr. Tanya Lamden: Shay has a wonderful sense of humor.
Cisco: So, are we supposed to call him King Shark or Shay?
Dr. Tanya Lamden: Yes, I'm still here. Uh-huh. I agree. Okay.
King: [jumping out of the water] You believe this cure could help?
Barry: Yeah.
Dr. Tanya Lamden: Where do we begin?

Mar: You failed.
The: Why are you doing this?
Mar: You did this to yourself. And now, all of you will perish.

Cisco: I'm gonna ask. Where's my suit?
Barry: It's... gone.
Cisco: What do you mean, it's gone? What did you do with my suit?
Barry: It blew up, dude. I managed to get out of it before it went "kaboom."
Cisco: My suit went "kaboom"?
Barry: Fun fact about Bette Sans Souci. She's not carrying bombs. She touched the emblem on the suit and turned it into a bomb. She's a meta-human.
Dr. Harrison Wells: With the ability to cause spontaneous combustion upon tactile contact.
Cisco: She blew up my suit.
Caitlin: You have, like, three more.
Cisco: Okay, I have two. And I loved that one.

XS: Dad, something's wrong.
Impulse: What's happening to us?
Jay: Flash, we have a problem.
Impulse: [watching all the Godspeed clones get back up] But we knocked 'em all out!
Jay: They're being recharged.
Iris: How?
Speed: They're feeding off me. It's what happened inside the Speed Force. And now that energy drain is affecting all of us.
The: Nora, you have to go.
Speed: I can't let you fight alone.
The: You'll still be with us, but you have to leave. Right now.
[she whooshes away]
The: We're not going down without a fight.

Caitlin: So we're just supposed to get used to working above a makeshift prison housing evil people with superpowers.
Dr. Harrison Wells: You'd be surprised what you can get used to, Caitlin.

Allegra: I'm glad Carver turned you down. After what he did to my cousin, Joe, Iris, he... he deserves what he gets.
Barry: He doesn't deserve to die. What if he's telling the truth about the Mirrorverse affecting minds?
Ralph: Or he's lying. He's not exactly the paragon of truth.
Harrison: I don't think he's lying. I think it could be neural dissonance. I came across this Earth on my travels where any visitor to that Earth immediately suffers a traumatic psychological state. Neural dissonance. This could be that.
Joseph: [entering] I'm glad someone believes me.

Cobalt: Looks like the gang's all here.
The: It's over. You can't beat us all.
Cobalt: I don't have to. You have your team. But me?
[Godspeed, Zoom, Savitar and Reverse-Flash appear]
Cobalt: I've got a whole legion.

Joe: Logistics compliance. Is that what you were doing when you were working in Gotham?
Kristen: I've made a few trips there. I'm a big Knights fan.
Joe: And I called my buddy who'd been working the Gotham beat for more than a decade. Pretty high stakes game you played. And...
[showing her her military service record]
Joe: ...there is this. So I don't know what your goal is here, but if you're gonna be in my precinct... how about we cut the bull and you be honest with me.
Kristen: Fair enough. I wasn't planning to announce this until I got my bearings. On the orders of the governor, I'm here to locate and apprehend a rogue meta-human, whatever the cost. And quite frankly, it's about time someone addressed the long-standing issue this precinct ignored.
Joe: [looking at her tablet] You want to arrest the Flash?
Kristen: Hmm, no; he's clean. So far. I'm here for someone far more dangerous. The meta-human fugitive known as Killer Frost.

Frost: Something was taken from Ivo Labs this morning. Do you know anything about that?
Mark: No, but I do know a bit about... science.
[mixing a drink]
Mark: If you take a hydrometer to a bottle of Plymouth gin, you'll find that it has a specific gravity, 0.94, which means a liqueur like, say, creme de noyaux here, will sink right... to the bottom. Ergo, the secret to the smoothest cocktail... is density.
Frost: [taking a sip] That is... not bad.
Mark: The famous Killer Frost likes my work. I'll call the Citizen.
Frost: It's just Frost now.
Mark: Oh.
Frost: Turn that up.
Kristen: [on TV at a press conference] So in light of the violence at Ivo Labs this morning, the Central City Police Department is offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the meta criminal known as Killer Frost. If you have any knowledge on the whereabouts of Killer Frost, immediately call the Meta-Human Task Force tip line.
Frost: [seeing the barflies surrounding her] Crap.

Barry: You said you know who Savitar is.
Abra: I know everything about the God of Speed, hallowed be his name.
Iris: Like what?
Abra: That he's unstoppable, that he was the first speedster, and that you defeat him, but not until after he takes what matters the most to you... Iris West.
Iris: Tell me is who he is, now!
Abra: I don't think so. It's frustrating isn't it, knowing that you're going to die unless I give The Flash what he wants. All that power, all that speed, and yet you're still slow.
Joe: This isn't a game or a trick. This is about my daughter's life.
Abra: And it's my life if you hand me over to that collector. It's simple. Let me out, and I'll tell you who Savitar is. Give me to Gypsy, and Iris dies. The decision lies with you, Barry.

Cisco: Holy 2001. I feel like I just opened my third eye.

Eva: What don't you understand? He's not worth saving!
The: Maybe... But it's not your decision.
Eva: Oh, yes, it is.
[forces a mirror shard through Flash's shoulder and it pierces Joseph in his chest]
Eva: My husband... let me rot in that world for years! He does not get to live in this one.
Joseph: You're not my wife. My wife died in the particle accelerator explosion.
Eva: Well... I've never felt more alive.
Joseph: You're not... even... human.

Barry: I think I understand how you're feeling. Sometimes our powers are so extraordinary, it makes our mistakes feel amplified, especially guilt.
Nora: But I should feel guilty. I've never messed up this badly before, and I can't stop thinking about it.
Barry: That's just 'cause you care. It's okay, it's a good thing. But... Nora, if every time you make a mistake, you just rush in to fix it, you're only gonna make things worse. Trust me, I know that better than anyone. You just gotta have a little more patience. Take a moment, think before you act, fix the problem the right way.

Leonard: Barry Allen, hero of Central City. This is Siberia in the year 1892. We're a little out of your jurisdiction.
Barry: Hear me out. I wanna recruit you for a mission.
Leonard: I'm already helping a bunch of idiot do-gooders. Sorry, I'm up to my fuzzy hood in teamwork.
Barry: Would it help if I said please?
Leonard: No. You already have a bunch of superhero types in your life. Why ask me?
Barry: Well, you have a... particular set of skills.
Leonard: Great movie. Last time we tried to be buddy-buddy, it didn't work out so well... for you. Why trust me now?
[Barry hesitates]
Leonard: Spit it out, or I'm gonna step on that ship and pretend like this conversation never happened.
Barry: Iris.
Leonard: Oy. The girlfriend.
Barry: Fiancee.
Leonard: Mazel tov. What about her?
Barry: If you don't help me, she's gonna die.
Leonard: True love? That's your pitch?
Barry: It's all I've got.
Leonard: I assume saving your girlfriend requires us to do something less than lawful.
Barry: We need to break into A.R.G.U.S. and steal an alien power source.
Leonard: The Flash a thief. That's my kinda mission. One condition: my rules.
Barry: Your rules.

Jay: Zoom uses the breaches. Why can't we?
Cisco: We don't know how. Everything I put through just bounces back.
Barry: If Zoom's using these breaches to transport people from Earth Two, maybe it takes a speedster.
[Barry super-speeds away]
Cisco: He's not gonna...
Jay: Yeah, he is.
[Barry super-speeds into the breach and bounces off]
Barry: Maybe I'm not fast enough.

Joe: Why does your female experience include you dancing at The Golden Booty?
Joanie: Because we live in a society that's dictated by the male gaze. I wanna control the narrative of feminism, okay? I wanna show the world that a powerful, strong woman she can wear anything, be it a bikini or a pantsuit.
Ralph: Or nothing. Feminism.
Cisco: That's not how feminism works. Will you cut it out? Joanie's practically his daughter.

Cisco: That's the other thing, celebrating the decimation of an indigenous culture so a bunch of greedy colonizers can get their turkey-lurkey on.
[to Iris and Nora]
Cisco: Do you know about this? Do you know about the sham? The sham we call "Thanksgiving."
Iris: Okay, I'm sorry, am I... am I missing something? Since when did you guys become anti-Thanksgiving?
Cisco: Since a bunch of guys wearing hat buckles fed us some old bull, wrapped in lies, stuffed in propaganda. It's a deception turducken.
Nora: Actually, I think the hat buckles weren't real, either.
Iris: Don't encourage him.

Despero: You're nothing like I expected, not that it matters. Those who were once good die just as easily.

Dr. Harry Wells: Ramon, remind me again... what's-what's... what's another word for "huge"?
Cisco: Colossal.
Dr. Harry Wells: Colossal. Great, thank you. This... was a colossal waste of time!

Digsy: Do you know who I am?
Barry: Uh, not Joe West, I'm guessing...?

Cisco: [using the Thinker's chair to enhance Cecile's powers] Cecile, you good?
Cecile: Nope! Not even close to good. I-I am sitting in a death machine. What if this thing fries my brain? Uh, wh-what if this chair turns me evil like the Top? What about that?
Caitlin: As a medical professional, I promise you will be okay.
Cecile: Okay.
Caitlin: Probably.

Despero: You can't fool me with a speed mirage, Flash. My mind is too powerful.
The: Wait, you said I was good once. What happened to me? You owe me that.
Despero: As you wish. Bear witness to a coming Armageddon that you create ten years from now, one that destroys your own planet. It already happened, Flash. That's why I, Despero, have to kill you. It's how I save our world.

Joe: [his phone rings] Hey, Cecile. What? I'm on my way.
[hanging up]
Joe: I need you to run me to the house.
Barry: You said you never wanted...
Joe: I need you to run me to the house.
Barry: Yes, sir.

Red: Central City, The Flash disgraced me. Now all of you will pay the price, and justice will be served.

Anti: [speaking through a possessed Harbinger] It is time... to end the age of heroes, and everything you hold close.

Kamilla: She should be here.
Allegra: Maybe it was a false positive?
Iris: Maybe since Nora is the Speed Force, her isotopic signature is all over the city by now.
Allegra: So what do we do?
Iris: I don't know. But we are running out of time.
Kamilla: Well, Cisco always says you can't solve a problem 'til you're asking the right question.
Allegra: Isn't "Where's Nora's kinetic energy leading us" the right question?
Iris: No. The right question is "Where's Nora?". We've been trying to find the Speed Force when we should be looking for... the person.
Kamilla: So where would the real Nora Allen go?
Iris: Home. Come on.

Solovar: Grodd will never leave!
Barry: You have my powers, Grodd, and my knowledge of how to use them. Now get us out of here.
Grodd: Grodd understands.

Savitar: I've beaten you, finally.
The: Where's Wally? What just happened to him?
Savitar: Like the Greek myth of Atlas, who could not put down the sky until someone took his place, Wally has taken my place in the Speed Force. You know me. I love a good myth.
The: He took your place. What...
Savitar: When you created Flashpoint, you unwittingly provided me with the means of my return.
The: Wally...
Savitar: You gave me the idea to turn Wally into Kid Flash, to make him fast enough to replace me in your prison. His youth and ego were my allies. So taken with his fame and speed, he never saw he was running right into my trap.
The: How do I get him out?
Savitar: Wally's gone.
The: [yelling] How do I get him out?
Savitar: Suffering in an endless void for all eternity. Another victim Barry Allen failed to save.

Iris: Did you think that you could run away and I wouldn't figure out where you went? It's my job to find out the truth. I'm a reporter.
Young: You're always a reporter. Why not be my mom for once?
Iris: Oh, yeah? How's this for being your mom? You are never coming back to this place again. Let's go.
[feeling something as she grabs Nora's arm]
Iris: Excuse me, what is in your pocket?
[Nora takes out a Flash action figure]
Iris: Hand that over right now.
Young: It's not yours.
Iris: Well, it is now. There are consequences to your actions.
[as they struggle, it falls and breaks]
Iris: Hand it over.
Young: I hate you!
Iris: Leave it. Let's go.

Linda: So, is this your place? It's awesome.
Barry: Yeah. Well, not entirely. I grew up here. Is it really lame that I live at home?
Linda: Not at all. I still live with my parents.
Barry: Really?
Linda: No. That would be so lame.

Iris: Who spit gum on the floor?
Ralph: I'm a gum-shoe! Not gum on a shoe!

Brie: Hello, Dr. McGee. You gonna open the window, or should I buzz myself in?

Joe: So, we gonna talk about it?
Kristen: Talk about what?
Joe: That Creyke said that he saw you die.
Kristen: Just drop it, West. I spent years letting Adam haunt me for the pain that he caused, the lives he took. Now I can put it behind me and get back to doing my job.
Joe: [passing traffic headed the other way] My God.
Kristen: What the hell?
Joe: It looks like the whole city's trying to leave town.
[trying to go around everyone, a car pulls into their lane]
Joe: Kramer, watch out!
[she swerves out of the way]
Joe: Oh!
Kristen: That was close.
[two fighting Godspeeds whoosh onto the car hood]

Barry: Imagine that this line is time, okay? I went back in time, stopped the Reverse-Flash from killing my mom. In doing so, I created an alternate timeline, a whole new existence where you're Kid Flash...
Wally: The Flash.
Cisco: Kid Flash.
Barry: And Cisco's a billionaire.
Cisco: So you're saying there's a timeline out there where I'm not rich? Boy, that's a glitch in the universe.

Iris: Nora.
Nora: Mom?
Iris: Step away from him, please.
Nora: Mom, it's okay. Eobard is helping me. He has a way for me to get back home.
Iris: Nora, step away from him now.
Eobard: Nora, listen to your mother.

Allegra: So you're the Barry from 2023. And you are the Cecile from 2023, but in our Cecile's body.
Chester P. Runk: And here I thought today couldn't get any freakier.
Barry: Look, the crystal that possessed Nora, it attacked me in the past. And then it went after the team in 2023.
Allegra: Wait, why don't we remember these attacks?
Barry: Because they're happening simultaneously across the timeline. First in the past...
Chester P. Runk: Then in your present.
Barry: And now here, in 2049. All while charging the crystal for the new avatar. Eddie.
Cecile: That's not all. Speed Force Nora showed up in 2023. She said she was under attack and that all that remains of the Speed Force lives in your family. And then she vanished.
XS: Big Nora's gone? Dad...
Barry: I know. Explains why we can't feel her anymore.
Chester P. Runk: Sweet NK Jemisin. OK, all this red energy that's appearing in the sky, it's not lightning. It's the timeline starting to fracture. And it'll spread in every direction...
Barry: Until there's nothing left of the timeline at all.
Allegra: How long do we have, Chuck?
Chester P. Runk: I'm not sure, but at this rate of degradation, not very long.
Barry: Cecile, I still can't time travel. Can you warn the team back in 2023?
Cecile: Yeah, on it. But what do I tell the team about Eddie? Is there a chance he rejected that crystal's offer?

Dr. Martin Stein: We're dealing with a lot of big scientific ideas today, but you, Mr. Thawne, might be the most interesting thing here at S.T.A.R. Labs.
Detective: Me?
Dr. Martin Stein: What are the odds that Dr. Wells would travel back in time and get stuck in the exact same city as his great-great-great-great grandfather, working in the same profession, the-the same building, and that part of his plan to get home would mean that he'd have to preserve and protect your life. That makes you this rare thing that-that-that no scientist can plan for.
Detective: Which is?
Dr. Martin Stein: Coincidence. There is no science to coincidence. You, sir, are an anomaly, a-a wild card, as it were. You are the only person in this whole story who gets to choose his own future. At least, that's my opinion.

Iris: What is so important about this particle accelerator, anyway?
Barry: Harrison Wells' work in quantum theory is light-years ahead of anything they're doing at CERN.
Iris: You're doing that thing where you're not speaking English.

Cisco: What's happening? Everything just stopped.
Chester P. Runk: The numbers are going back up. It's as if the forces are still here...
Barry: [returning with Wells] Iris was right. You all were. I, uh... I couldn't do it.

Renee: Wow. That would have been an embarrassing way to go. My gosh. Death by decaf.
Sherloque: Flattened by flat white.

Iris: So, figure it out yet?
Barry: Whatever these negative tachyons are, it feels a lot more like science fiction than actual science.
Iris: I wasn't asking about the science. I was asking about the scientist. You and Nora, you guys have such a strong connection. I mean, it's... it's effortless. So why are you so intent on sending her back?
Barry: I mean, what do you mean? First of all, she can't stop talking about the future. But... I mean, you know the danger that her being here poses to the timeline.
Iris: Yeah, I do, but I also know you, Barry. Look. You're the guy that went back in time to borrow Snart before he died.
Barry: I know.
Iris: You're also the same guy that traveled to 2020 to figure out who Savitar was, and 2015 to train with Wells. You changed fate to save my life. So, now that our daughter is here in front of us, asking for our help, you expect me to believe that you're worried about the timeline?

Leo: This was your team member, right? Ralph Dibny?
Barry: Yeah, Elongated Man.
Leo: Elongated Man? Don't remember someone with that name being part of the fight against the Nazis.
Barry: No, no, he, um... he wasn't ready yet.
Leo: Ah, a rookie hero. So you trained him?
Barry: As much as I could, yeah.
Leo: Even harder death to take, someone you've mentored. And yet somehow you seem okay, considering this happened, what, just a few days ago?
Barry: I am okay. I'm just... trying to do what I have to do. I'm trying to stay on task.
Leo: Oh, is that what you're doing? Do you know how many rebels we lost over the years, Barry, trying to defeat those Nazi bastards?
Barry: Countless, I'm sure.
Leo: Not countless. Counted. 18,322. 3,769 were under my watch. And I felt the weight of each of their deaths. I still do, some years after they died.
Barry: Leo, look...
Leo: The thing I realized is that to continue to lead, to be clear-headed, I had to grieve for those men and women I lost. So I did. Each and every one. Look, Barry, you want me to help you move a meta-human nuclear bomb that some genius with nearly every meta-power on this board is after, I will do what I can, as long as your head is on straight. Because if I die before Ray and I get married, Ray will kill me.

Ralph: Need any help what that, uh...
Cisco: Nope. Unless you came here to break something, in which case you'd be the perfect candidate.
Ralph: I deserve that. Never should've interfered with Kamilla. Sometimes, I forget how... embarrassing I can be.
Cisco: I'm not embarrassed by you, and I'm not embarrassed by anyone on Team Flash. You guys are my family. You're not the problem. This is the problem. This is the problem. Kamilla is blissfully unaware of any of the madness that goes on in S.T.A.R. Labs, or that we routinely save the city from evil metas.
Ralph: Or that you have a secret identity and dress up in leather and go all pew-pew!
Cisco: Especially the leather. She and I, we got a good thing. And being with somebody has never felt so... so easy. And when I'm with her, for once, I just feel like a normal dude, with a normal life and a social-media-official girlfriend, who happens to a very talented photographer and not... a Spider-Person.

Barry: What the hell?
Eddie: Wait. I've seen that happen before. My driver's license.
Barry: I've seen reactions like this, too, caused by negative tachyons. I think this place, Malcolm's belongings, his life - it's all made of negative tachyons. Like a false reality built for you to live in.
Eddie: Well, who could have done that?
Barry: There's only one force powerful enough-- the one inside that crystal. The Negative Speed Force. I think it brought you back to life.
Eddie: Why would it bring me back?
Barry: Eddie, I think the Negative Speed Force resurrected you, so you could be its avatar.
Eddie: Its avatar? Avatar for what?
Barry: A Negative Speed Force. It needs a surrogate on Earth to carry out its plan. That's what the crystal has been doing all along. Joe, Mark, Nora. I mean, it can only possess them temporarily. It must need you to choose to take on its power.
Eddie: No. That can't be right. The crystal showed me a better life, one with a daughter I was supposed to have.
Barry: Eddie, the Negative Speed Force is unlike anything you've ever seen before. It gets inside your head. It feeds off hate and rage, all right? Everything about it is evil.
Eddie: It brought me back from the dead, OK? Is that evil? And what if I choose not to be the avatar, huh? Do I go back to being dead?
Barry: No, no, we'll find a way to save you. You could choose to start a new life.
Cobalt: He lies.
Eddie: Oh, really? Because all your team tried to do was cuff me. But that crystal, it actually wants me to help me get my life back. A life I was a fool to give up.
Cobalt: There's still time.
Barry: Come on. You don't believe that.
Eddie: Don't tell me what I believe! Did you know I can hear it right now? Sometimes I can't tell if it's the crystal's voice or my own voice. And I'm starting to wonder, what's the difference? It's funny. Returning from the dead really has a way of making you realize the mistakes you made in your old life. My mistake was being a nobody.
Barry: Eddie, you weren't a nobody, all right? Listen to me...
Eddie: No! You listen to me. The second I died, everyone forgot about me. And you, Barry, the man I sacrificed my life for, you thanked me by stealing my fiancée.
Barry: Eddie.
Eddie: But now I have a chance to change that. If I chose the crystal, maybe I could be the hero. I could get the girl and the family I deserve.
Barry: Eddie. I know how much you're hurting. The life you're talking about, it's not yours. Iris isn't your wife. Nora is not your daughter.
Eddie: But they were supposed to be! And they still can be!
Barry: Eddie, you know that's not right. You have a chance to start over, to have your own life. What would Iris want you to do?

Joe: You never judge your kids for who they are now. You help them become who they know they can be when they grow up. So lead with love. After that, it's up to them.

Caitlin: Hey, you ready to get those shards out of your hands?
Cisco: Hell, yes! I haven't been able to play PS4 properly for weeks.

Adam: Well, that was fun! What? Nothing? Still looking for a way out of this? There isn't one. Oh, you can try. You could shoot me. Light me on fire. I know it's a trap. But I've died before. 17 times, actually. So why don't you give me your best shot. 'Cause I can't be killed. Hmm?
Kristen: Is that why you killed twelve innocent soldiers from Fort Dakota? Because you knew they'd die and you wouldn't?
Adam: [she turns around] Kristen?
[approaching from behind, Joe fires a restraining anklet, and she takes his weapon]
Kristen: You were like a brother to me, Adam. How could you do it?
Adam: I'll tell you. Right after you tell me who the hell you are. 'Cause Kristen Kramer died in that explosion. And that means you're dead.
Joe: What's he on about, Kramer?
Kristen: I don't know. And I don't care. All I care about is why you killed our unit. Was it money? If you were in trouble, I would have helped.
Adam: [laughing] Trouble? Listen. I'm immortal. And once I discovered that, I realized the world was meant for me because I deserved it.
Kristen: What you deserve is life in prison.
Adam: Oh, really? I gave my life to the Army. And what did it get me, huh? Nightmares and a kick in the teeth. That's when I realized I could go down broke or live it up rich. 'Cause there's plenty of folks out there willing to pay for my new talents.

Damien: Never dance with the devil.

Goldface: Scum recognizes scum. I'm scum. And I've survived this long by recognizing the same.
[patting Ralph's shoulder]
Goldface: Like you. You're scum. I sniffed you coming a mile away.
Ralph: Thanks?
Goldface: [turning to Barry] But your partner... I don't sniff nothing on him. And that worries me. So... the question is, who are you?
Ralph: I can vouch for him. He's just...
Goldface: I said shut your mouth!
[one of his thugs knocks Barry down to his knees]
Goldface: I want to hear it from him.

The: Hartley Rathaway. Since when are you a diamond thief?
Pied: It's Pied Piper, Flash. You're really gonna ask me that after what you and your friends did to me?
The: Uh, what did we do?
Allegra: Wow, Flash. My brother, that is epically cold. How do you not remember? It was really bad.
The: Oh, great. Another Crisis change.
Pied: Apparently, there is something else you didn't remember. The gauntlets are just my backup singers.
The: Wait, what?
[Pied Piper flies off]
The: Great. He can fly now.

Mark: Joss was born when me and her mom were still in high school. I never could work out how to be with that woman. Then when Joss came, I thought the best thing to do was to focus on my career.
The: Your criminal career?
Mark: That's why I left her with her mom. Least until she ran away because of some falling out.
The: What happened with Joss and her mom?
Mark: The last time I spoke to her, she told me that her and Joss are broken. You know how it is. Sometimes mothers and daughters break, and there ain't no fixing 'em.

Iris: You're still the cutest nerd I know.

Alex: Okay, uplink to the Tower mainframe is secure. You now have access to our alien database, including any intel we have on this Despero.
Iris: We appreciate you helping, Alex.
Chester P. Runk: How long will it take to download?
Alex: Well, this new algorithm works at light speed. In fact, Caitlin, that guy Marcus that I connected you with, he designed it.
Catlin: Well, if the world's still here in a week, I'll be sure and give him a call.
Alex: [getting a negative search result] Oh, I'm sorry, guys. I'll keep digging and see what I can find out. But if this Despero has managed to stay off of our grid, then he is a greater threat than any alien we've faced. Keep your guard up.

Savitar: Do it! You kill me, and you become me. Either way, I live.
[Barry vibrates Savitar's suit apart]
Barry: I'll never let the pain, the darkness, determine who I am. I will never be you.
[Barry punches him]

Dr. Harrison Wells: You soldiers, you call yourselves "Sheepdogs", am I right?
Bette: Happy and normal until someone attacks our flock.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Every good person who was changed that night, people like you, people like Barry Allen, those people are your flock now, Bette. And General Eiling will never stop attacking that flock, and he always gets his target. Unless you stop him.
[thoughtful look]
Dr. Harrison Wells: You know your duty Sergeant. Kill Eiling.

Barry: How was Blue Valley?
Wally: Oh. Self-reflection and a battle with a starfish from outer space gives you perspective.

Barry: Heart, tell me how to stop this war. Both sides are looking for you, including one that wants to kill you.
August: And what? You're gonna turn me over to them? Mm-mm. You're too much of a hero to sell me out. Now, Impulse, that's a different story.
Barry: I said leave my son out of this.
August: Oh, but I can't. He's the one who helped me realize the truth. That artificial speed would always be a pale imitation of the real deal. Spoiled little brat. He's not just reckless, he's unworthy. All the times we fought. He was so cavalier with his gift; a gift that should have been *MINE*! Now it will be... thanks to you.
Barry: That's what this is all about. You want organic speed.
August: [clapping sarcastically] Keep going.
Barry: Everything that's happened... us finding you, your clones, this war.
August: Is all a part of my plan to force your hand.
Barry: So why the act if your memories are still intact?
August: That's the one thing I didn't foresee. Memory loss is a side effect of fracturing myself in time. Who knew, right? Then again, I knew you'd come looking for answers, which eventually would bring you to me. Gift me the gift I deserve, and I'll save your precious city by reabsorbing my other selves. Or refuse my request... and watch your city burn.
Barry: There's no way that's happening. Besides, what you're asking me to do? It's impossible.
August: The impossible is your thing. You can figure it out. Or watch more cities fall as my army spreads and this entire world is torn apart. Oooooh! I can see those little wheels turning in your head. You're trying desperately to think of a way out of this. Well, guess what? There isn't. So what's your answer?
[Barry stays silent]
August: Answer me, damn it!
Barry: I already did. I said no.
August: Oh, you'll change your mind. You have no choice.

Jesse: Oh, that's a nuclear bomb.
Barry: I know.
Jesse: And its core has already gone critical.
Barry: I know.
Jesse: The second we slow down, it's over.
Barry: I know. That's not helping.

Cisco: Melting highly concentrated bonds. Melting Point. Oh, yeah, yeah. I gotta write that down.
Ralph: 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.
Cisco: It's not Mr. Melting Point. Look, it's just Melting Point.

Tony: [to Flash] Looks like you were born to take a beating.

Caitlin: Let's just say I envy your inability to get drunk. I don't remember much from last night.
Barry: Yeah, that's probably for the best.
[sings Summer Nights]
Caitlin: Oh, God. That I do remember.

Barry: You're telling the truth. You really have changed.
Grodd: Flash didn't believe Grodd before, but why does Flash believe Grodd now?
Barry: You let go of the past. Maybe I should do the same. Crisis has changed so much. I've been obsessed with trying to keep things the way they were before, but... I can't.
Grodd: Those things don't matter. If Flash can't beat Solovar, there's no escape. This world collapses. We both die. That's our fate.
Barry: No. We decide our fate. Grodd, Solovar beat me because I tried to fight him the exact same way I fought him three years ago. To get out of here, we just have to try something new. We have to run forward, not backward.
Grodd: How?
Barry: By fighting together.

Khione: I understand. It was you. You're the presence that told me to go back to S.T.A.R. Labs so that I could save Diggle.
Oliver: Khione, you're connected to the natural world, so you were able to use your powers to expel the unnatural inside of John.
Khione: That's a lot to digest. I'm going to meditate.

Cisco: It's just like we thought.
Barry: Great.
Iris: What?
Barry: With all the pieces that she's stolen, Grace can now use the dagger's dark matter energy to supercharge the atomizer. Apparently, it wasn't enough for her to just kill all the metas in Central City.
Cisco: With this super-charge, she'll kill every meta in the country.

Iris: You're all over the news.
Barry: What?
Iris: What did you do?
Barry: Nothing. I...
Arielle: [Iris turns the TV on] After apprehending a criminal earlier today, the Flash, for reasons unknown, committed a crime of his own. Warning: this footage may be disturbing to some viewers.
[he watches himself throwing lightning at civilians, then directly at the camera]
Arielle: Our camerawoman was barely able to escape with her life. And luckily, there were no deaths today, despite what city officials estimate are millions of dollars in damage. But other members of our crew, along with dozens of innocent civilians, were injured in the Flash's brazen attack. Once again, our top story: the hero who has saved our city countless times has turned against us. More on this unprecedented breaking development as we head to our reporter on the ground.

Mon: [Kara is bleeding out after getting shot] I'm so sorry I lied to you.
Kara: I forgive you.

Kamilla: You want to go after a force of nature?
Iris: Yeah, if I can convince Nora not to kill Deon and Psych, then... Barry will see that she can be reasoned with.
Allegra: But how do we find her? I mean, she's the freakin' Speed Force.
Kamilla: Well, if she finds us first, at least we'll know she's coming. Holy crap... . you guys gotta see this.
[showing them the filter on her camera]
Kamilla: You see that bright spot at the center of you? I think that's kinetic energy.
Iris: Guys, this is gonna sound really wild, but...
Allegra: Yeah, 'cause a ghost-hunting lens isn't weird enough.
Iris: But if Barry and I created these forces, what if there's a little bit of each of them inside of us?
Kamilla: Like you're all connected? Wait, Iris. When you're over by the door, your glow was brighter. Like there's something in that direction that was intensifying it. What if...
Iris: That something is Nora. Guys, we can use me as a diving rod to track her down.
Allegra: Yup, that's weirder.

H.R. Wells: Wallace... I understand what you've been through. Stuck in the Speed Force, things you saw... I get it. I also know that sometimes the old adage is true. You get bucked from the horse, best thing you can do is get right back on the damn thing and ride, Wallace.

Barry: I'm your super - it has a double meaning - friend!

Dr. Harry Wells: Hey, listen to me. Thawne knows about you. Right here, right now. This is where he learns about you, all of you. It's how he knows about S.T.A.R. Labs, how he knows about me; the Harrison Wells from this Earth. And there is nothing I can do about it. There's nothing you can do about it. This is his origin story, and it's going to happen no matter what you do. But right here, right now... you can send him back to his time. You can save your friend. You can save Cisco and then move on with your life.
Joe: This could be a good thing. You can finally let go of him.
The: I could throw him three centuries from now. He'll always be a part of me.

Iris: How do you do that?
Barry: Do what?
Iris: Stay positive in the face of overwhelming odds.
Barry: Because I plan on living a long life with you. Nothing's gonna take that away from me.

Robber: All right, first, I want a car. Something eco-friendly, like, uh... like a Prius.
Joe: [a little taken aback] Okay, we can do that.
Robber: [oblivious to Ralph rescuing the hostages] Good. Uh, right. Now, second. Uh, I want a plane, okay? A private plane. Okay? And a salad, all right? I'm counting calories.
Joe: Okay, it's gonna take us an hour to arrange that.
Robber: You better hurry up, because these hostages don't have much time.
Elongated: [appearing, as the robber realizes the hostages are gone] Should have gone with a steak, pal. 'Cause it's the last decent meal you're getting for the next five to ten years.
Robber: Who the hell are you?
Elongated: Your friendly neighborhood superhero. You can call me...
[stammering]
Elongated: Mr... one second.
[into his comms]
Elongated: Guys, this is a huge moment for me. What's my name?
Cisco: I was wondering where you were going with that.

Julian: You know why I don't like you, Allen?
[Barry shakes his head no]
Julian: I don't trust you. And I don't like things that I don't trust.

Allegra: Nope. I can't believe that Eddie Thawne is the avatar of the Negative Speed Force.
Cecile: Yes. That's the reason the crystal has been attacking us across time.
Khione: It was charging with power.
Mark: Sounds to me we could use the Flash right about now.
The: [over comms] Guys, can you hear me?
Cecile: Barry! Oh, thank God you got out of there. I'm on my way to the hospital.
The: Any sign of damage to the timeline?
Chester P. Runk: No temporal fractal yet, boss.
The: It's already started in 2049. If it spreads here...
Khione: It'll threaten our entire existence.

Cisco: Every time we try to do something right, it goes horribly wrong.
Wally: We're cursed.
Iris: Maybe we should burn some sage.
Barry: Guys, we're not cursed.
Dr. Harry Wells: You're not cursed. You should be cursed at.
Cisco: Okay, why should we be cursed at?
Dr. Harry Wells: You should be cursed at because you opened the Speed Force without consulting me.
Barry: Okay, I don't think we need to rehash...
Cisco: All right. Okay, I did consult you, and you're the one who gave me the calculations in the first place.
Dr. Harry Wells: Yeah, I told you not to use them without consulting me. I said "Ramon, don't use the calculations without consulting me."
Barry: Guys.
Cisco: Yeah, yeah, I heard you. I didn't see the need for that.
Dr. Harry Wells: And that's why you should be cursed at.

Reverse: Gideon, what's happening to me?
Gideon: Your latest time jump against The Flash caused a massive drain on your powers. Your cells contain no trace of The Speed Force.
Reverse: That's impossible!
Gideon: Your ability to move at super-speed as well as travel in time has been completely depleted.
Reverse: How am I supposed to get back?
Gideon: You can't.

Barry: Shouldn't that thing be at CCPD in evidence lockup?
Joe: Well, if Carver's trying to get this, we can't risk his mole gaining access. I put in a call to A.R.G.U.S. Until they have it in their custody, I'm not letting it out of my sight.
Iris: Well, we... we could keep it here at S.T.A.R. Labs for the time being.
Barry: If Sunshine is as ruthless as Dr. Light and Ultraviolet, then she's coming after that Refractor again, and if she shows up at S.T.A.R Labs, the Flash isn't gonna be able to do anything to stop her. Let A.R.G.U.S. take it.
Iris: [watching him leave] Barry's right about Sunshine. What if she strikes during the transfer to A.R.G.U.S.?
Joe: Let me worry about that. Go see after your husband.

Iris: And we're not exactly catching bad guys at our old rate. One out of every three metas have we've fought in the last six months have escaped.
Wally: Temporarily, yes, but Team Kid Flash is on the case.
Joe: Son, I love you, but ain't nobody feeling Team Kid Flash.
Cisco: It's, like, too many syllables.
Iris: Okay, guys, maybe a little less fooling around and a little more taking things seriously. It's up to us protecting this city, right? Because there's no one else.

Barry: Meta cuffs?
Carver: That's right, power-dampening cuffs fitted with an explosive charge, in case you're both metas. So tell me, who sent you?
Ralph: That's really sweet. Look how threatening they're trying to be.

Caitlin: Seriously, Marcus, I am so sorry. I cannot believe I made a dinner reservation for next January.
Marcus: Oh, please don't feel bad. Last week at work, I screwed up the blooming cycle for the Selenicereus grandiflorus I've been growing. You should have seen all the pollen.
Caitlin: [giving him her coat] Thank you. I mean, really, you're just such a trooper. This first round is on me. This place is a little seedier than I remember.
Marcus: It's fun. Plus, they've got karaoke.
Caitlin: There's that.
Frost: [on stage, singing Foreigner's "Cold as Ice"] You're as cold as ice.
Mark: You're willing to sacrifice our love.
Marcus: Hey. Way off-key, but they're committed.
Caitlin: We need to leave.

Chester P. Runk: Dude, there is no word to describe how awesome you are right now.
Caitlin: Actually, there is. He's da bomb.
Mecha: Hell yeah, I am.

Warden: A criminal psychologist set up weekly visits with him. James talked the shrink into committing suicide.

Cisco: [seeing his tracking device suddenly go dark as he nears a meta-human] Oh, I really wish that was because the batteries are dead.

Barry: You're saying you're our daughter?
Iris: From the future?
Barry: Named Nora?
Nora: After your mother.
Cisco: Anybody need a refill? No? Just me?
[gulps down champagne]
Nora: Cisco Ramon, always the cutting the tension with a joke.

Cisco: What is that?
Dr. Harry Wells: This is an intelligence booster. You put this thing on Dibny here, and even he would be able to understand the point source construction. You put it on a real genius, I'll finally be able to outthink the Thinker.
Cisco: You know what, I'm not sure this thinking cap is the best idea you've ever had.
Dr. Harry Wells: It's an intelligence booster.
Cisco: It looks like a thinking cap.

Clifford: Good evening, Detective West. Something tells me you're not here for more of my wife's world-famous lemonade.
Joe: Where's my son?
Clifford: Mr. Allen, has he gone missing?
Joe: He's not missing. He was taken. By someone I am eager to meet.
Clifford: Thinly veiled threats aside, Mr. West, I'm afraid I have not a clue as to Barry Allen's location. I do know, however, that your colleague is located behind my front porch carrying an ionic sub-repeating pulse firearm.
[he laughs as Harry enters with said weapon]
Clifford: The bird bath has a much better vantage point. A smart man would have taken up position there.
Dr. Harry Wells: A smarter man would understand that this gun has no safety, and my finger is still on the trigger.

Barry: What did you do to us?
Music: Oh, nothing much. Just put a little song in your heart.
Barry: Put a little... why did you bring us here?
Music: I-I-I didn't bring you anywhere. We're inside your heads. You created this world. And we got lucky, because it could have been a war movie or a... a space opera. But thanks to your love of musicals, what with the countless times you watched, um... "Wizard of Oz" with your adoptive parents...
Kara: How did you know that?
Music: [to Barry] And you, all those rainy nights watching Fred Astaire and Frank Sinatra with Mom. Well, where else would we be?

Caitlin: Killer Frost has been gone since the night that DeVoe took over your body.
Ralph: Jeez, Louise! No one tells me anything.

Joe: You want to go back, don't you?
Wally: I can't. I mean, I just got here. I don't want to leave the team. I don't want to leave you.
Joe: Wally, everybody in this rooms loves you, especially me. But you didn't finish what you set out to do, and nobody's gonna get in your way. So promise me, when you find what you're looking for, come back, or you're gonna have a very angry-looking dad in your zen garden.
Wally: Will you take care of him, XS?
Nora: You got it, Kid Flash.

[first lines]
Despero: [in 2031 Central City, the streets are in chaos] Look at them praying for a miracle that isn't coming. Who knows, maybe it's my curse to leave one betrayal behind, only to fight a greater one here amongst the stars? They could've stopped this, but none of them had the strength to do what must be done, but I do.

Sue: Yeah, I get it. Waiting sucks. You know what might make it suck less? A five-course meal from Angelino's delivered straight to your door. We could eat our problems away.
Iris: Food as a distraction? You're a bad influence
Sue: I'll take that as a yes.

Kamilla: Flash, Rathaway is at 52nd and Palm.
The: All right, I'm on it. I'll take Broadway.
Chester P. Runk: Uh, I wouldn't do that, sir.
The: Why not?
Kamilla: Because there's a...
The: [just barely phases through a speeding train] Whoa! Since when was there a train here?
Chester P. Runk: Since always.

Ralph: [hearing Nora's story] Are we talking about actual time travel here?
Cisco: Do you just, like, not pay any attention when we have our briefings?
Wally: Y'all didn't teach him about the Legends?
Ralph: Look, nobody said bupkis about time travel.

Iris: So how long have you known about these Dominators?
Lyla: Since the '50s.
Joe: That was them. Redmond, Oregon. The government tried to cover it up. What? I watch Syfy channel.

Joan: Jay told me he's the doppelganger of your late father.
Barry: Mm.
Joan: Do I remind you of anyone from your Earth?
Barry: Yeah, you do.
Joan: Hmm. Who is she?
Barry: Someone very special.
Jay: Ain't she? I never thought I'd settle down. But I needed a neurological specialist to help with my depleting speed, and something just felt right between us.

Dr. Harrison Wells: Cisco, bring the generator on-line. Make sure Barry gets the charge.
Cisco: What? You're not coming with me? I am not leaving you.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Listen to me. Of everything I've done in my life, of everything I have invented, my most important creation is the Flash. Barry Allen must have a future. Now, go. Go!

Weather: Hey, don't mind me. I'm just here to pick up my dad.
Nora: Did she say "dad"?
Mark: Joslyn?
Weather: It's Joss.
[in the blink of an eye, Barry takes Mardon to the Pipeline]
Weather: Bring me my father! Now!
The: Yeah, that's not gonna happen.
Weather: We'll see about that. Bring my dad to Porter Plaza in one hour, or Central City is gonna get wrecked.

Cisco: Spectre energy. Okay, well, that's just energy we don't understand yet. That's just something we can figure out, right?
Caitlin: Absolutely. We can run some tests, figure how to track it...
Barry: Thanks guys, but I want your help with something else. I've been thinking about what Thawne said.
Cisco: You mean how he's gonna kill us all? Yeah, me too.
Barry: How he built his own power source - the Negative Speed Force. If he can make one, then... So can we. I need your help to build an artificial Speed Force. That's how I can get my speed back.

Vibe: I hate teleporters.

H.R. Wells: [last words] Tell Cisco... This took strength, and he gave it to me.

Cisco: [having accidentally discovered Barry's message from the future] This is really you. Like, future you.
Barry: Come on, look...
Cisco: You told them, right?
Barry: I'm gonna tell them, yeah. When this is finished.
Cisco: When this is finished? Even though you're about to lead them through an alien war? Even after Flashpoint? After everything you've messed up, all the lives you've changed, you still don't think you should tell them?
Sara: Tells us what?
Barry: [Cisco gives him a non-verbal "go ahead" gesture] Uh... Jax and Professor Stein found a message from me in the future saying that right now, I can't be trusted.
Sara: And why would future you say that?
Barry: I think because I went back in time and changed the timeline, and now things here are different than before I left, including some of your lives.
Supergirl: Some of our lives? Like... like who?
Barry: Cisco. Caitlin. Wally. Dig.
John: Me? Why? What... what happened?
Oliver: [quietly] Hey. Apparently, you had a daughter.
John: I had a daughter, Barry?
Barry: Baby John was baby Sara.
John: So, wait, let me get this right. You just, uh... you just erased a daughter from my life?
Barry: Yeah.

Cecile: [feeling Barry and Meena's emotions] They're both hurting badly.
Allegra: Okay, so what do we do now?
Cecile: We find Iris and we bring her home.
Chester P. Runk: Then we find a way to take down the Negative Forces, 'cause if they come back for a rematch...
Nora: I don't think they will. They already got what they came for; the last Thawne in existence.
Bart: What do they need him for, anyway?
Barry: There's only one way to find out. I have to find a way into the Negative Speed Force.
Bart: Dad, no offense, but that's insane.
Barry: I don't have a choice. As long as Thawne's out there, everyone's in danger. Chester already ran a satellite search. Thawne's nowhere on the planet. The only place left to hide is the Negative Speed Force. If I can find a way in...
Cecile: No, look... I can feel all of the anger inside you, I can, and I know that you've been to hell and back today, but we need to think our next move through.
Barry: HE KILLED IRIS!
Cecile: Barry, how can you possibly be so sure?
Barry: Because I am.
Nora: [asking for privacy] Guys, we need to talk to our dad.

Orlin: Grace, what's wrong?
Grace: Look at this.
Orlin: It's your parents' murder file?
Grace: Do you see what they did? Nothing! Three witnesses saw a woman in a hoodie leave the scene, but did Central City's finest put out a search party or an APB? No. They thought it sounded like a job for the Flash.
Orlin: Look at this debris from the scene. Looks like a chemical burn.
Grace: It's not a chemical burn. It's charred dark matter residue. We can track the meta who left it.
Orlin: How?
Grace: I can't track an exact real time location, but I can get close.
[scanning the debris with a futuristic gauntlet cuff]
Grace: Found her.

Speed: Please understand. The role you play is vital to all things.
Barry: Oh, stop.
Speed: There are universal forces at stake. They must be protected.
Barry: What about the rest of us?
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: She's right. There are universal forces at stake. It's just a pity she doesn't consider your life among them.
Speed: Don't listen to him. He wants to possess your form no matter the cost.
Barry: Cost? All those headstones? Those people are dead because of my connection to you. How many times do I have to suffer for you? When is it your turn to suffer? Do you even feel pain?
Speed: No, at least not as you know it.
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: How could it? The Speed Force isn't human. It doesn't even know what it means to be alive, to have a family to love. It only pretends.
Speed: Ramsey's infection is twisting your heart. You have to fight it. Barry. These aren't your true feelings.
Barry: What do you know about the truth? This isn't what you look like. This isn't my old bedroom. It's a trick. This is you manipulating me so I'll do what you want.
Speed: That's not true. I care about you.
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: All it cares about is using you.
Speed: Barry, you must listen to me.
Barry: No, I don't! You're not my mom. You're the reason I buried her.

Iris: Chester, Ray. Ray, Chester.
Ray: Ah, so you're the new team tech genius. Nice to meet you, Chester.
Chester P. Runk: Likewise. I've been a big fan of yours ever since reading your papers on quantum qubits.
Ray: So you're pretty stoked about the Con this year, huh?
Chester P. Runk: Oh, are you kidding me? Ever since I found out you were gonna be this year's legacy honoree, I kind of took the liberty of signing up to be a CCTC volunteer. I'm gonna be your liaison for the entire event. If that... if that's cool? Like, if you're... like, if you're all right?
Ray: Sounds great.
Chester P. Runk: Cool, 'cause I already have your whole itinerary planned to sweet perfection.
Barry: So, um, I'm late for work. So, Ray, Chester, I'll pop by the convention center later.
Iris: Don't you dare.
Barry: See ya. I gotta go.
Ray: [Barry whooshes away] Aw, he forgot his breakfast.

Leonard: I like you, kid. You're smart. You pulled yourself up from humble beginnings. You seem like a good brother.
Cisco: You, too.
Leonard: Debatable.

Null: [restrained in anti-meta handcuffs] Didn't see that coming.
The: It's kind of the point.
Null: [pointing to the sky] No, you didn't see that coming. See, I call it my getaway car. 'Cause either the person in there dies, or you let me get away.

Barry: So, your, uh... mimic powers... how exactly do they work?
Kristen: They only activate in times of stress, when my adrenaline spikes, and the effects are temporary.
Barry: That's good to... yeah.
Kristen: Allen, does me being a meta make working for me more difficult?
Barry: No, ma'am. It's already tough enough as it is.

Chester P. Runk: If this is the real August Heart, shouldn't he be in, like, I don't know, triple lockup at A.R.G.U.S. or something?
Cecile: Well, right now, it's just a feeling.
Barry: Yeah, we need to find a way to prove it. One way or the other. It's what Iris would want.
Caitlin: Based on everything you told us, being with Deon is the safest place for Iris to be right now.
Chester P. Runk: Yeah, I mean, we've all seen what the Still Force can do. If anyone can keep her safe, Deon can.
Barry: All right, right now, let's stay focused on keeping the city safe.
Chester P. Runk: Right, right, okay. I just finished running the algorithm on the Godspeed disappearances. Turns out these clones are coming back exponentially faster each time.
Barry: How long do we have?
Chester P. Runk: At first, it was eight hours, then four.
Caitlin: And now?
Chester P. Runk: If we're lucky, 90 minutes. This war's about to go turbo.

Iris: You don't want peace with the Flash. You want to kill him.
Ryan: You're damn right I do!

Eobard: Sure there is a bit of a risk.
Dr. Martin Stein: I would hardly refer to possibly causing an extinction-level event as "a bit of a risk."

Dr. Harry Wells: I would ask you to talk Barry out of reopening the breaches to my Earth.
Joe: [laughs] Ah, I can't do that.
Dr. Harry Wells: No? You can't find a way to change his mind, for both our children's sakes?
Joe: Look, I think it's just as dumb as you do, but I learned a long time ago that I can't talk Barry out of anything once he sets his mind to it. Zoom is terrorizing this other world - your world. He can't let it go. But, look, why don't you do ME a favor? Go with Barry. Help him.
Dr. Harry Wells: Help him? Why would I do that?
Joe: 'Cause he's got a much better chance of defeating Zoom if you're involved.

The: [voice over] Jay's death took its toll, left scars on all of us, some more than others. And so to try and keep my mind off thoughts of the surreal other life I experienced that wasn't my own, I kept running, waiting for some other meta-human threat to rear its ugly head and distract me from the frustration I was feeling; and, as fate would have it, I did not have to wait long.

Queen: No, no way. She said these walls were meta-dampened. How can you read every single mind in town all at once? Even I couldn't do that.
Cecile: I don't know. I don't understand it either.
Rosalind: I think I do. Look, I don't know how, but, Horton, you're becoming one of the most powerful metas this city has ever seen. The planet, for that matter.
Cecile: What? What's happening to me?

Clifford: Good. We are gathered here today to worship in song. I suggest "Kumbaya."

Barry: Wait, Cisco, you're not gonna help us?
Cisco: Oh, that reminds me. Who the hell is this? Huh? You brought some stranger into my lab and told them I helped The Flash.
Barry: Cisco.
Cisco: Uh-uh. I don't know you, string bean.

Cisco: What do you mean we have to choose?
Barry: Simply put, the longer the person is in the Mirrorverse, the more dark matter photons are required to pull them out. Kamilla and Singh have been trapped for less time. Therefore, they can be retrieved together. With Iris, it would take everything we have to retrieve her.
Allegra: Well, there's gotta be another way.
Frost: Barry, what's your speed brain tell you?
Barry: We have to choose. Kamilla and Singh or Iris. It is the only way.
Frost: How the hell are we supposed to do that?
Allegra: I guess we vote?
Frost: On this?
Allegra: I don't know, dude. Do you know another way to be fair?
Frost: [sardonic laugh] This is beyond screwed up. But if this is the only way... who thinks we should save Iris?
[Barry raises his hand]
Frost: And Kamilla and Singh?
[she, Cisco, and Allegra, reluctantly, raise their hands]
Allegra: Sorry, Barry. Gotta go with the numbers.

Julian: [learning Savitar is a future version of Barry] That explains why Caitlin was willing to follow him. He has a face that she trusts.
Barry: Half of one, anyway.

The: Frost, you okay?
Frost: Yeah, I'm okay, it's just a scratch. I could use a little help with this, though.
Allegra: Yeah.
Frost: [Allegra uses her powers to melt the ice covering her eyes] Thanks. They broke you down?
Allegra: I tried, honest.
Frost: It's okay, 'cause the only other person I trusted today just tried to kill me, so... arriving with backup, I'll let it slide.

Warden: Welcome to my own personal meta-block, built on the ruins of the first Iron Heights. Completely off the books and camera-free.
Amunet: Yes, yes, less history lesson, more window shopping.

Detective: Sir, please, you have everything to live for.
Jumper: No, I don't.
[the Flash saves him from the building]
Jumper: [suddenly finding himself back on the ground with Eddie] Are you gonna let me go back up there?
Detective: No.

Solovar: After you die, your friends will follow you into the black.
The: We'll see.

Iris: What is this?
Barry: A candlelit pizza dinner.
Iris: Oh.
Barry: From our favorite place in Milan.
Iris: Oh, thank God. I was too tired to cook.
Barry: I can't imagine why. Team Citizen has been in overdrive these days. Plus, Deon's still helping to stabilize your temporal sickness with regular treatments. It's a lot to handle.
Iris: I told you, I'm fine. Plus, you're not exactly an underachiever yourself, Flash. Nice work at Calvert Railway.
Barry: Thanks.
Iris: I guess we both earned a night off.
Barry: And without kids, too. I mean, don't get me wrong, it's great having Bart and Nora stop in all the time from 2049.
Iris: But if we're ever gonna have a baby...
Barry: Uh-huh.
Iris: We need some alone time, Mr. Allen.
Barry: Mm-hmm.
[they lean in to kiss, but just before their lips touch, there's a knock on the front door]
Barry: Great.

Bart: It's all "aster", no "dis."
Barry: I have no idea what that means.

The: I need your help, John.
Dr. John Deegan: Go find someone else to prank, douchebag.
[the roof of his car is smashed and the windows blown out]
Dr. John Deegan: My god, wha... what are you?
The: Something beyond your comprehension. I've traveled far to this place and time to lay this precious burden at your feet.
[handing him the Book of Destiny]
The: Use this book to reshape the world as you see fit. Show them what a real god can do, John.
Dr. John Deegan: Why me?
The: You have vision. That holds the key to your transformation, John, and all you have to do is open it.
[Deegan does so, in awe of what he sees]
The: Use it wisely, John. The universe is in your hands.
Dr. John Deegan: I can... I can see... I can see everything.
The: And a word of advice: think big.

Abra: You've come to see off. I'm really touched.
Gypsy: What are we going to do here?
Barry: You're going with her. I'm not gonna stop her.
Abra: Then you'll never find out what you want to know.
Barry: I have nothing to offer you. No reprieve. No escape for what you're facing. You've done some terrible things. But you are still a man. You have a family, friends, people that you care about. Somewhere inside of you there must be a glimmer of light, of hope. It's that part of you that I'm asking. I'm begging. Help me save her.
Abra: Flash. Begging. See, here it is. In the future, you and I have been enemies for years. Oh, there have been others, of course. There was Thawne, Zoom, DeVoe, but none of them hurt you like Savitar. He truly broke you. I have to be honest. I was always a little bit honest. But now, it's like I get to kill her too. If you'll excuse me, I have my execution to attend.

Reverse: You wanna save me? Is this a joke?
Barry: No, I'm serious. Thawne, do you remember that day you told me about? 170 years from now? When you presented yourself to the world? Finally gained speed of your own?
Reverse: Greatest day of my entire life. Until now.
Barry: Up until that point in your life you admired me. You wanted to be a hero.
Reverse: And you destroyed everything I worked for. You saved that crowd. You took the credit that I should've had.
Barry: I know. And I'm sorry.
Reverse: Is that what this is all about? Making amends for ruining my life? Well, it's too late.
Barry: No, it doesn't have to be. Don't you see? All we do is cause each other pain. But tonight, you can change all that.
Reverse: That's not what this is about. You know I win tonight. That's what this is all about.
Barry: You win one battle, Thawne. Not the war that's going on between us, neither of us can do that. But if you don't walk away tonight, you will lose everything.
Reverse: [laughs] Don't you know who I am? I have always been the hero, you're the villain, Flash! You're the one who reversed my life and dragged me into hell and that's why you die tonight! By my hand!

Iris: Look, I have this friend, and he had something terrible happen to him when he was a kid. And his whole life, he's been telling stories about this impossible thing. And people laughed at him. And shrinks analyzed him. And he's been searching for an explanation ever since. But now, suddenly, it's like he's lost his faith. But you... you are proof that he wasn't crazy. Help me save my friend.
The: He's a lucky guy.

Virtue: Hey, blue eyes.
XS: Impressive. But I know you, empath. You won't hurt me.
Virtue: You're right. I won't hurt Nora. But for you, I'm going to bring the pain. Now get out of her head! And stay out!

Amunet: Men. They're all idiots. Who needs them?

Barry: We need to get back out there. Frost and Mecha-Vibe need our help.
Iris: Yeah, we will, as soon as...
Nora: [watching the Godspeeds vanish] They're gone again. Wow, Frost and Mecha-Vibe make a hell of a team.
Barry: Chester, how long would it take to rebuild the S.E.E.?
Chester P. Runk: Uh... four or five weeks, maybe?
Bart: Well, how come your tech thingy affected the clones and not us?
Chester P. Runk: Well, you're all organic speedsters, so I tweaked my Pops' design to only target artificial cell membranes.
Jay: Making it ineffective against us. Well done.
Nora: Dad, Mom, I know you both wanna keep the future safe, but if we don't stop this right now, there won't be a future to save. Please, can you just consider giving Heart organic speed?
Barry: Nora, I know that seems like the answer... but we're your parents. It's our job to protect you.
Bart: Maybe so. But Central City doesn't need parents right now. Dad, it needs heroes.

The: Hello again, Central City. It's time for the exciting new game show, "Wheel of Misfortune". With prizes so amazing, you'll think you died. And if you play your cards right, you just might. Here's your host, the murderous matriarch, Prank!

Cisco: [Barry ends a phone call with Joe] What was that about?
Barry: Iris posted about the Streak again. She signed her name to it.
Cisco: Oh, that's not good.
Barry: No.
Cisco: If one of these bad meta-humans we're dealing with figures she knows something...
Barry: They may target her, I know.

Cisco: You have, uh... Peter Parker'd her.
Ralph: Yeah, I mean, Kamilla is a great photographer and I thought she could start taking some pictures for Iris, and then maybe she'd start to come around S.T.A.R. Labs. I don't know, if we're lucky, get bitten by something radioactive. Become, like, a Spider-Person.
Cisco: So, while you thought, did it occur to you that no one asked you to do this?
Ralph: You don't think she'd make a good Spider-Person?
Cisco: You listen to me, and listen to good, you turkey on stilts. It is not your job to get my girlfriend on the team!

Barry: All right, what else do we know about her?
Cisco: Oh, I don't know. She's pure evil. We're gonna find this girl and send her butt into the Pipeline. No one blows my tech to smithereens and gets away with it...
[seeing Bette's picture from her Army personnel file]
Cisco: Unless she looks like that.

Sue: Since when does Cecile have that kind of power?
Caitlin: She doesn't. It was the mask.
Iris: That was the voice inside of our heads. She was possessed just like Hayden and all the others before him.
Sue: Okay. When did all this happen?
Caitlin: During the Force Storm, we thought Cecile was hit by the Sage Force lightning. But it must have been the psychic spirit of the mask that used that as a cover to take over her mind. Now they're both missing. We have no idea where they are.
Chester P. Runk: Or what they're up to.
Iris: We have to find her. That mask is the only link to helping Barry and figuring out what happened to the real Cecile.
Chester P. Runk: The legends says that the mask gives the wielder enhanced psychic powers. So maybe if we track her neurological signals?
Sue: And how about we let someone else come up with a plan for a change?
Caitlin: Sue, Chester was just trying to help.
Sue: Yeah, so was I when I told him that this job seemed too easy. But he brushed me off, and I shot a tranq into my own neck.
Chester P. Runk: She's right. This is on me.
Iris: Chester, that thing tricked all of us.
Chester P. Runk: But you heard what it said. It put Barry in that coma, just like Grodd did, to play me and zing my insecurities as the new guy. It knew I'd pick Psycho Pirate out of that binder and call Sue to help us break into that museum. All to make me think I had this all figured out. Really, I don't know jack.

Barry: You're not stuck here, are you?
Nora: [handing him a small disc from her gauntlet] I found it in the museum archive. Negative tachyons, harnessed on demand. Really should work on that poker face, I guess.
Barry: This didn't have to be a secret. Why'd you keep this from us?
Nora: Because if you knew I could have gone home, you would have sent me back the second I walked into Grandpa's house. I mean, it's like you said, dad. Speedsters have to be responsible. But... but I-I'm not responsible, am I? I'm... just selfish and really, really bad at being a speedster.
Barry: Nora, you're not bad.
Nora: I mean, I can do some cool things, you know? Sometimes, I run so fast I reverse time a bit, but I can't do the things you can. I don't even know how to phase yet. Guess there's only so much you can learn from a museum.
Barry: What about your mom?
Nora: Yeah, I... she's around, you know? It's just, uh... just me and her.

Caitlin: Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta - all your brain waves are perfectly in sync. The chances of that happening are next to impossible.
Barry: Impossible's just another Tuesday for us, remember?
Cisco: Yeah, but this is like some Twilight Zone level stuff - and I say that knowing full well that we have a guy locked up in our basement who can turn himself into poison gas.
Ronnie: Wait, really?
Cisco: Dude, that was, like, week three.

King: Those guns won't stop me, Flash. First I'll kill you, then I'll kill them.
The: Oh, yeah? Let's do this then! Come on!

Lia: A speedster? Nora, lab mate, friend of mine, you didn't happen to pitch your speedster theory to Detective Curtis, did you?
Nora: It is not a theory, Lia. It is the only explanation.
Lia: You know I'm equally a fan of our fleet-footed super friends. I mean, honestly, if I could have ever met Jesse Quick, it's like, hello, new best friend. No offense, um...
Nora: Some taken.

Cisco: Really not enjoying being one of the good guys this week. REALLY not.

Hunter: I told you family was a weakness. You feel the anger, don't you, Flash? And now... the two of us ARE the same.
Barry: [runs at Zolomon] No! No!
Hunter: There you go, Flash! Use your anger, just like I did.

Mark: Hey, Joe. I can call you Joe, can't I? Figured we don't got to be too formal, seeing as you put two bullets into my brother's chest.
Joe: Your brother killed my partner and a whole lot of innocent people, and threatened to kill even more.
Mark: Yeah, Clyde was no saint, but he was family. If you can't protect your family, the least you can do is avenge 'em.

Joe: Not to sound like a broken record, but where the hell are these new metas coming from?
Cisco: You know what? Maybe the scanners in the suit picked something up.
Barry: You said you took all the tech out.
Cisco: Okay, well, I left something in. Okay? Sue me.

Iris: Well, if you keep getting no for an answer, stop asking questions.
Detective: I say that! You're quoting "me" to me?
Iris: What can I say? You are a very smart man.

Mar: Cisco Ramon.
Cisco: [exclaims] Didn't I just leave you?
Mar: You are not a Paragon, but you do have a purpose. Vibe must live again.
Cisco: No. No, my powers are gone and there's a reason for that.
Mar: You must answer the call whether you wish to or not.
Cisco: Okay, maybe you didn't hear me under those luminous mutton chops of yours.
Mar: [turns Cisco into Vibe] Now go. Serve your higher purpose.

[first lines]
Wally: I'm fast, really fast. I might even be the fastest man alive. And when I'm running, there's no greater feeling in the world. I can move through the city like a guardian angel, protecting who need me.

Elongated: I know it's none of my business why you're afraid of a cure, but for what it's worth, I'm a meta. And I'm all for it. And after talking with most of those people out there, so are some of them.
Killer: Oh, yeah, I can see that. I just don't understand why.
Elongated: It might save their lives.
Killer: It's not that simple for me.
Elongated: Why not?
Killer: Because, just like Norvock didn't ask for his snake, Katie didn't ask for me. So if one day she wakes up scared of being a meta-human and decides to take that cure, her powers don't just disappear. I do, too. That's what I'm really afraid of. 'Cause if I'm gone, who's gonna protect her?
Norvock: [knocking on the door] It's witching hour.
Elongated: [he and Killer Frost turn to leave] I get why you're scared, but... you need to know that when DeVoe made you disappear, all Caitlin talked about was getting you back. So maybe as much as you want to protect her, Caitlin wants to protect you, too.

Barry: I'm Oliver Queen.
John: Yeah, I'll say.
Barry: I'm the Green Arrow. Holy crap.

Cisco: [after getting a vibe from Earth-2] Birds. Why? It's like a Hitchcock movie in my head.

Remington: Mr. Dibny, we meet again.
Ralph: You got to take it easy on the Bond quotes, man.

Savitar: My ascension is nearly at hand, Flash. As I rise, you will fall.

Abra: Now for my greatest trick yet. Absolute suffering.

Kristen: You must see a lot of strange crime scenes working in this city.
Barry: Yeah, yeah. This case is another one. Usually, I'd find dark matter dispersed evenly throughout meta-produced ice. But from what I can tell, this ice has dark matter. It's just... only on the surface.
Kristen: What would cause that?
Barry: I don't know, but I'm gonna find out.

Nora: So, since you let me agree to help you with your love life...
Sherloque: Right.
Nora: I came up with an... unusual idea.
Sherloque: Spectacular.
Nora: Mm-hmm. I have asked your ex-wives for help.
Sherloque: Great. What?

Prisoner: [he and his clones surround Bart] Your inability to suppress your rash nature shall be your undoing.

[after Wally puts his Kid Flash suit on the mannequin]
Barry: My suit goes there.
Cisco: Ah, two suits, one mannequin. That is what we call a conundrum.

Iris: I can't believe she's actually willing to level the city to kill one man.
Barry: She doesn't know where Mardon is. It's overkill, but it's the only option we've left her.
Iris: Well, Caitlin's on radar, and Cisco's trying to juice the satellites, but there's interference. We can't locate Joss. You okay?
[knowing she means Nora, he shrugs non-committally]
Iris: Look, babe, you're gonna find the words to make her understand. I know it.
Barry: Not sure I have the words to make myself understand. She's got a point.

Dr. Ramsey Rosso: I see you got my message. Cait...
[turning and seeing Caitlin]
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: You know, it's a bit weird seeing you like this.
Caitlin: I guess both our looks are evolving. Yes, I did get your message. It reminded me of when we both used to work for your mom. Way back when I was a resident.
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: You were like the daughter mum never had. Do you know at first, I was jealous? Over time, I came to see you less as a rival and more like a sister. And that's why I'm offering you a chance to join me.
Caitlin: You wanna kill me, too?
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: I'm offering you life, Cait.
[using his powers to mold a flower out of blood]
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: I've learned to control it, discovered its secret beauty. This is my final masterpiece, Cait. Life eternal.
Caitlin: Immortality?
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: You see? I'm no monster. I'm a miracle.

Barry: What do you think about what Julian was saying?
Caitlin: I know that every bad guy we've ever had has pretended to be our best friend, while really being an evil, murderous bastard, but...
Cisco: I think if he's lying, he sure believes the hell out of his own lie.
Barry: Okay, well what do we think about this box?
Cisco: It's creepy. Like, "Indiana Jones" melt your face creepy.

Caitlin: You can't be here, Barry.
Barry: Why not?
Caitlin: Because your Speed Gauge registered a massive loss of speed, which means not only does using your powers affect it, but so does your anger.
Barry: Caitlin, I'll be fine, all right? A-A-And if I need more speed, I'll use a booster like Velocity-X.
Caitlin: Oh, great, so you're just gonna start taking speed steroids now? Barry, every test we've run says that physiologically, you have changed drastically, so we have no idea what Velocity-X would do to you. It could hurt you, it could hurt others.
Barry: Other people are already hurt. I mean, we-we have no idea what Thawne is doing to Nash right now.
Caitlin: And he could do even more damage to you if he gets under your skin again. Look, I know this is hard for you, but you need to leave. You can't trust yourself around him.
Barry: What you mean is you can't trust me around him.

Joe: How is he still alive? How are you still alive?
Dr. Harry Wells: Well, I don't know. Because you missed?
Barry: Hey, I'm tryin' to keep him from shooting you. You're not helpin'.

Joseph: How do you know Eva's coming after me?
Barry: Who else would've burnt down your warehouse? 42nd and Darby, right?
Joseph: I'd never buy on that side of town. And I don't need protecting.
Barry: Mm.
Joseph: Give Captain West my best.

Cisco: Whatever Eva hit Frost with, it's light-based. Her healing's trying to compensate, but it's not enough. I can't fix this without Caitlin.
[Barry speeds around the room]
Cisco: What is that?
Barry: A cure.
Cisco: Has it been tested?
Barry: I ran 2,731 tests in my head. We're good.
Cisco: Barry, that is not a...
[Barry injects Frost]
Cisco: What are you doing?
Frost: [waking up with a gasp] What happened?
Barry: You took the brunt of Eva's laser blast to help us. I just returned the favor with a cryogenically-fortified paracetamol cocktail...
Frost: That fortified my cellular walls. Yep, that'll do it.
Cisco: Of course, you wouldn't have had to take the brunt of the blast if Barry hadn't let you get hit in the first place.

Iris: Cisco, remove the dagger and then breach the atomizer away.
Cisco: [receiving an electric shock] Yeah, there's a slight problem there. Breaching this thing anywhere could set it off. My powers are useless here.
Sherloque: Then use your other power. Your mind.
Cisco: Bring up the atomizer blueprints. I'm gonna have to science the crap out of you.

Iris: Did you know about the CatCo offer?
Barry: Yes. So, I did. I figured it out using this.
[showing her a notebook]
Barry: I call it my mapbook. It's a record I'm putting together of everything that's gonna happen to us in the future.
Iris: You're planning our future without me?
Barry: No, no, I'm-I'm cataloging it. Instead of changing the timeline, we're just gonna follow it.
Iris: Catalog how?
Barry: I mean, between everything I've picked up time-traveling and Gideon's records, we already know so much about our future. I spent all week putting it together.
Iris: Why would you want to do that?
Barry: Look, um... I've been having the same nightmare ever since we defeated the Negative Forces, and in it, I can't keep you safe. But with this book, we can see what's coming before it happens. The good and bad. Like with Nora. Iris... you're gonna get pregnant in three months. You're gonna win two Pulitzers! Like, how great is this, right? Now we won't have to worry about any Desperos or mirror dimensions or time sickness catching us by surprise. We're safer now with this.
[telling she's not as excited as he is]
Barry: What's wrong?
Iris: Um, nothing. I'm just... tired. Can we just, um... talk about this tomorrow?

Chester P. Runk: Ladies, may I present the solution to all of our Flash-finding problems, the Neural Conjoiner?
Catlin: Both of you have the natural ability to access people's brainwaves like an antenna. Cecile as an empath and Rosa as a psychic who can spin people's emotions out of control.
Chester P. Runk: So, with the Telepathic Crown as an amplifier, we'll be able to conjoin your psychic powers and pick up way more brainwaves than you'd ever be able to pick up on your own. Like, all over the continent. Now all you need to do is focus on the Flash's brainwaves, and the N.C. will transmit them here while I use the visual data to triangulate his location with this.
Rosalind: I'm sorry, but does that TV have rabbit ears on it?
Chester P. Runk: Yeah, yeah, it's 'cause it's my grandma's, which means we'll have to be done by 7:00, 'cause she doesn't want to miss her stories.

Barry: [trying to train Izzy] I saw up close what DeVoe did to Becky. To all of them. They... and I... I couldn't do anything except just stand and watch it happen. DeVoe is ruthless. He is not gonna stop until he's taken her powers and her life. He's not gonna go easy on her, so neither can I.

Nora: Wow, this house is bitchin'.
Caitlin: I think I've seen you before. Didn't you spill coffee all over Harry and me?
Ralph: Yeah, did she pay for hers? Because she paid for ours.
Wally: Weren't you the server at their wedding?
Barry: Wait, yeah, you were. And where did you get this jacket?
Nora: Uh...
[points at Iris]
Nora: From her.
Iris: Um... No, mine - mine is one of a kind.
Nora: So was this, uh, when you let me borrow it.
Barry: [chuckles] Who are you?
Nora: I'm your daughter, Nora. From the future. And I think I made a big, big, mistake.

John: So, how does it feel being 30 all over again?
Barry: Unreal, I guess.
John: Because it's special, Barry, which means it requires a special gift.
Barry: Dig, I...
John: No, no, please, open it.
[opening the case, Barry finds Oliver's Green Arrow bow]
John: We thought we lost it when Earth-38 was destroyed. But A.R.G.U.S. found it in National City. It's hard to believe it's been three years, right? Sometimes I'll be at the grocery store, man, or with my kids, and, uh... grief will hit me all over again.
Barry: Yeah. It's hard. We don't get the chance to say goodbye to someone.
John: I'm sorry to hear about Caitlin, losing her so soon after Frost.
Barry: Eh, having Khione's helped. But something about it all still just doesn't feel right. That's why I-I can't accept this.
John: Barry, Oliver would have wanted you to have this.
Barry: I'm sorry, Dig. Maybe we should just display it in the hall.

Sherloque: The point's simply that there's no reason for Cicada of this Earth to be anyone other than David Hersch.
Iris: Well, there may be one reason.
Sherloque: What's that?
Iris: The timeline.
Barry: Yes, since Nora got here, things have changed a bit. Yeah.
Sherloque: Oh, mais no, you must- how can you not tell me this? How am I expected to operate when you don't give me the variables?
Cisco: I don't know, but what we can expect is a refund, so...
Barry: Yeah.
Sherloque: Oh, no, no, no. That money is long gone.
Cisco: What do you mean "it's gone"? You spent all that money in one day?
Sherloque: Right.
Cisco: On what?
Sherloque: My ex-wife. Ex-wives. Seven marriages. Five wives. Lots of alimony.

Iris: I don't understand. Everyday you guys figure out a way to help people. All of The Flash's powers and all of this equipment and you can't save Eddie and my dad?
[walks off disappointed, if not in disgust]

Gideon: Good evening, Nora West-Allen.
Nora: Gideon, another data entry.
Gideon: [scanning the entry] Entry uploaded and recorded. Shall I send it to the same recipient?
Nora: Yes.
Gideon: Entry sent. Would you like assistance with anything else?
Nora: Yes, send a personal message from me.
Gideon: What would you like it to say?
Nora: Actually, I'll deliver it myself.
[arriving at Iron Heights in 2049]
Nora: We need to talk.
Eobard: Yes, Nora. Yes, we do.

Cisco: Some guy with ridges on his head, these big muttonchops.
Sherloque: Do you think that the red skies, this guy, these disparate event are somehow connected?
Caitlin: So Barry and Oliver were mind-swapped by a guy with muttonchops?
Ralph: Man, it's not even Tuesday.

Cisco: [while analyzing the pieces of Tim Kwon's car that the Flash has dis-assembled to nuts and bolts] Auto-topsy.

Kamilla: Iris, you were right. These isotopic readings are off the chart.
Allegra: Where are we?
Iris: The old Allen house. This is where Barry's mom was killed. He also said this is where the Speed Force went when she died.
Allegra: [heading in] Whoa. That old car is hella vintage. Almost looks brand new.
Iris: Must be a collector or something.
Kamilla: We can ask him when we're done. Assuming we survive.

James: It's going to be my masterpiece, my Mona Lisa, my Breaking Bad season five.
James: [explaining this last reference at Axel's inquisitive look] They gave me cable in prison so I'd stop killing the guards.

Eddie: So do you guys finally believe me, or do I need to pee into a cup?
XS: According to all our tests, you're telling the truth. You really are Eddie Thawne.
Eddie: I know. So who the hell are you, and how did you know who I am?
[XS removes her mask showing her face]
Eddie: You're Barry's daughter? But I thought...
XS: I know. You probably recognize me from when we first met. 2013, New Year's Eve. I was one of the new interns at CCPD.
Eddie: I remember that.
XS: Yeah, we had to travel back to 2013 to save the timeline. I'm sorry, are you OK?
Eddie: That thing I saw in the museum... I also saw one at the cemetery. It killed Captain Korber.
XS: It was a singularity. Thank God it didn't keep growing. One like that almost destroyed the city on - on the day you died.
Eddie: Yesterday, I thought I was a man named Malcolm Gilmore. I turns out that whole life was a lie, and in reality I was a dead man - some idiot who killed himself to stop a supervillain that didn't stay dead.
XS: I know, but if you didn't do what you did in the Pipeline, my dad would've died that day.
Eddie: Maybe. Or maybe I could have had a whole life, a family. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful to be back from the dead, but there's being alive, and there's what makes life worth living. And Iris, your mom - that was my reason. And without that, I just - I don't why I'm here.
XS: I can't imagine how you must be feeling. But I know better than most, you have been given the rarest gift, a second chance. You just have to decide how you're going to use it.

Detective: We have all been so focused on Barry's destiny, I forgot that I have one too.
[pause]
Detective: And it's you... Iris West. Every moment of my life led to meeting you. Screw the future.
Iris: [Giggles] Screw the future.
[they kiss]

Ralph: Sue's been on the run for the last year. It turns out that someone's after her.
Cecile: And you're her knight in shining armor? Ralph, I love it! By the way, you two? Hmm. When I read the both of you with my powers, I could barely tell you apart. Like, emotionally speaking, you and Sue are definitely surfing the same wave.
Ralph: Just trying to keep her safe. I mean, it's not like we're dating.

Cisco: Harrison Wells. Welcome to Earth-1. My name is Cisco Ramon.
Harrison: [grabs Cisco and shoves him against the wall] Why are you following me?
Cisco: Oh, great. Another angry one.

XS: If I go back in, the negative Speed Force will be a part of me forever.
Iris: No, we'll get it out of you, Nora. We can get it out of you. We can save you.
XS: Mom... you can't.
Iris: Please, I promise.
XS: Mom, you *can't*. None of you can. It's making me like Thawne. Full of anger and hate. I... I don't want that to be my legacy. This is all on me.
Iris: No.
XS: All of it. My mistake. And I'm not gonna make another one. Sometimes all you can do is live with the consequences.

Mark: When I was nine, I went ice skating up on Central Lake. It was Christmas, so the ice... should have been thick enough, but I fell through. I was submerged, body and soul, for over 15 minutes. And at first, the cold was terrifying, but then after twenty seconds or so, you know, it got warm... hot, even. And then I died.
Frost: And the paramedics saved you, and now you're obsessed with refrigerators, I get it.
Mark: No, you don't. The ice, it holds the power of life and death. A power all too clearly wasted on you, Killer Frost. Oh, I've watched you for years, admiring your abilities, wondering what I could do with them. All I needed was for Ivo to move my microchip out of deep freeze, so that I could steal it back again, and then combine it with that pesky scan of you. And now... I'm as powerful as you are.
Frost: Bring it on, Mark, if that even is your real name.
Mark: Oh, Mark Blaine. Yeah, that was my name. But you can call me...
[conjuring metallic gauntlets]
Mark: ...Chillblaine.

Barry: What are you doing here?
Joe: Axel Walker escaped. Some new nurse helped him get out.
Barry: [realizing] He was in here because of the pudding.
Joe: How do you know that?
Barry: He was complaining about the taste.

Chester P. Runk: So I just got off the phone with Luke Fox. Mercer's boomerang, Amar's knives, even Wozzack's funky violin, Luke thinks they all resemble advanced WayneTech designs. But their nano-tech foundations are beyond bleeding-edge.
Allegra: So he has no idea who we're up against.
Barry: What about this new speedster wearing a bat symbol?
Chester P. Runk: Team Bat's never fought a baddie dressed like that. But they have some drama of their own. A few weeks ago, Ryan Wilder went out on patrol. She never came back.
Cecile: We got a new speedster in a bat suit, and Batwoman is missing?
Khione: Could that be a coincidence?
Iris: Okay, what do we do now?
Barry: We find this new speedster. And we stop him.

Cecile: Can you, uh, maybe hurry up? You know, when Iris gave me a spare key, it was to water her plants. It wasn't to hack her computer.
Barry: Okay, well, it's not hacking Iris' computer if it's not really Iris.
Cecile: What are you even looking for, anyway?
Barry: Anything that might be suspicious from the past few weeks.
[finding something]
Barry: Bingo.
Cecile: What'd you find?
Barry: This photo. It was deleted from Kamilla's camera, but not before it was uploaded to the Citizen's cloud server. Do you see this text?
Cecile: Prismatic Filter. What is that?
Barry: It's the science that we're gonna use to test our imposter's identity. Expose her for good.

Iris: We just heard from Singh. You quit? What - what is going on?
Barry: I, um... didn't really have a choice.
Iris: What do you mean, you didn't have a choice?
Joe: Julian. You quit, he keeps his mouth shut about Caitlin.
Iris: That son of a bitch.
Barry: I don't know. I mean, he said I couldn't do something like protect Caitlin and still be a good CSI, and maybe he's right.
Iris: No, he's not. Barry, you are an incredible CSI, and no one in this building cares more about helping people find justice than you. And that was long before you were The Flash. This lab - it's your life.
Barry: You're my life. Both of you. And Wally and Caitlin, Cisco. If these past few months have taught me anything, it's that I would give up everything I have to keep you all safe. No regrets.
Joe: Every time I think you've run out of ways to be a hero, you show me another one.

Iris: You need to go and figure out who is trying to frame you.
Barry: I need to go to the future, see who causes Armageddon. I'm not gonna make it there. I don't have enough Speed Force left.
Deon: How about some Still Force? My isotopes will pull you toward any weird temporal activity.
Black: Run, Barry. Run.

[Season 1 opening]
Barry: My name is Barry Allen and I'm the fastest man alive. When I was a child, I saw my mother killed by something impossible. My father went to prison for her murder. Then an accident made me the impossible. To the outside world, I'm just an ordinary forensic scientist, but secretly I use my speed to fight crime and find others like me, and one day I'll find who killed my mother and get justice for my father. I am The Flash.

Barry: I spent last year so afraid of losing everyone I loved in Crisis, I never thought I'd have to face that fear again. Psych showed me... people I love dead. Fuerza had killed them. We've taken on the impossible so many times. Something about these new threats feels different. Bigger. And for the first time since Crisis... I'm sc... I'm scared.
Cecile: Sometimes when I'm scared, I ask myself "What would the Flash do?". Seriously. Barry, you run through fear every time you save this city. Honey, you just gotta find some of that courage for yourself.

Mark: To think, you have so much strength, so much power, but so little imagination. I guess that just means I'm a better meta than you.
Frost: Actually, Chillblaine...
[stabs the ice dagger through herself and Chillblaine]
Frost: You're not a meta at all. There's one thing your bracelets can't copy. Ice healing.

Joe: What the hell is wrong with you two? Since when do we let people die?
Iris: Dad, you know who Thawne is.
Joe: Yeah, I do. And that man came to you for help, which means you're obligated to try and save him.
Barry: Joe, he killed you. No, I know you don't remember, but I do. If we don't let this happen now, our family will never be safe.
Joe: You don't think I want to see him dead either? 'Cause I do. If I learned one thing being a cop, it's that you can't just protect the people you think are good. You have to protect everyone. That's what heroes do.
Barry: I know that.
Joe: Do you? A hero is not just in the name, Barry, or in a red suit. It's the choices we make that decide who and what we become. You know that.
Iris: Dad, we don't have a choice. Thawne isn't giving us one.
Joe: You always have a choice! Now, did either one of you even try to think of a way to save him? You already found one.
Barry: Yeah. We could save him if we take his speed away, permanently.
Iris: Just like Jefferson Pierce did to you.
Barry: Listen, Joe, wait...
Joe: Hey. Uh-uh. This decision is for the two of you. But I can tell you one thing: if you let Thawne die, you don't have to worry about destroying our family.

Cisco: Can we please get rid of Jay's helmet?
Barry: No. Sorry, it keeps me motivated.
Cisco: Well, it's giving me day-mares.

Barry: You trying to make me feel like I ran back in time?
Chief: What can I say, Allen? This'll always be home. And, don't worry, I covered for you. While The Flash was out stopping robberies in Central City, Barry Allen has been in his lab all day with me. Captain Kramer'll never suspect a thing.
Barry: Thanks, Chief, but it's fine. She already know I'm The Flash.
Chief: What? You told her already? She just got here.
Barry: Actually, she figured it out on her own.
Chief: Well, I figured it out first.

Catlin: What the hell is wrong with you?
Barry: What's going on?
Chester P. Runk: You... you zooped in outta nowhere and started destroying the place.
Barry: What? No, I...
Allegra: You almost lightning-blasted Chuck.
Barry: I... I don't remember doing any of that.

[Flash crashes in to a van]
Caitlin: Barry, are you all right?
The: Cisco, shut it off! Shut it off!
Cisco: Okay, bro-tholomew.

Eobard: You want to destroy Cicada's dagger, don't you?
Barry: We want to save lives.
Eobard: [laughing] You want to save lives. I bet you do. I bet you do. Especially your own, right, Barry Allen?
Barry: Look, that me, he's gonna wake up soon. He sees me standing here, your whole timeline is gonna be blown to hell. You're never gonna get home. You know that's true!
Eobard: I know! I know!
[calming down, he turns to Nora]
Eobard: Where are my manners? Can I get you a cup of water?

Joe: That looks familiar. Been what, seven, eight years since I've seen this board? Except the last time, it was covered with photos of a different man. Cecile told me what happened. The team is worried about you.
Barry: No, they don't have to be. I'm fine.
Joe: No, you're not. They don't know what today is. I do. February 1 - Henry's birthday. I remember when he was turning 45, and your mom threw that surprise birthday. The whole block showed up, and you were baking cupcakes for weeks, and when the big night came, before he could even take off his coat, the pager went off.
Barry: They actually needed him. Had to miss his own party.
Joe: And you were disappointed. Of course. But you understood. He was helping save people's lives, right?
Barry: Yeah.
Joe: But Henry, he was crushed. He was worried that he was missing all these moments with you and your mom. But I told him, "Those cupcakes might be stale now. But you'll have more birthdays for both of them."
Barry: Oh, there were. That was the last one before it happened.
[remembers the night of his father's arrest]
Barry: Joe, the look in my dad's eyes that night... It was the same look in Birch's eyes when they arrested him. Look of an innocent man... desperate not to lose his son... Begging someone to believe him.
Joe: And you do?
Barry: Yeah, I do. I just keep thinking about all the time my dad lost. All the birthdays we spent, separated by plexiglass. I can't let Birch and his son go through that if he's innocent.

Cecile: This is insane. All of the evidence says that she's guilty, but... my powers are telling me that she's not just innocent, she knows who the real killer is. I just need her to trust me.
Joe: All you need to do right now is slow down.
Cecile: What I need to do is find evidence to exonerate her before the trial, and I am running out of time.
Joe: Well, that's because you're trying to do the public defender's work and not your own. You do realize how much trouble you can get in, right? You let Allegra out of jail for an inexplicable reason, and now there's another murder.
Cecile: But my powers are telling me...
Joe: Two people are dead, Cecile.

Mick: Most people think the hottest part of the flame is the white part. They're wrong.
Dante: You gonna admire those or you gonna drink 'em?
Mick: Both.

Allegra: Well, it's official. This is the craziest plan we've ever had.

Barry: You know, you really are a lot like me. Trusting. And you always blame yourself when things go wrong.
Nora: How do I fix this?
Barry: I don't know if you can, Nora. You made a mistake, you know? A big mistake. Sometimes in life, all we can do is just live with the consequences. So what you have to ask yourself is what kind of hero are you gonna be? One who takes a do-over after every mistake, or one who lives with it and moves forward?

Caitlin: We can't use that serum on Barry.
Dr. Harry Wells: That's up to him, isn't it? Barry wants to stop Zoom; this is what he needs.
Caitlin: Jay said it could hurt Barry.
Dr. Harry Wells: Well, Jay's a coward.
Caitlin: Jay's a scientist who knows a lot about speedsters.
Dr. Harry Wells: You're a scientist, Snow. You've been watching Barry. You know he's nowhere near fast as he needs to be. This other mentor, this other Harrison Wells, did not want him to reach his full potential - I do.
Caitlin: You know, you're really starting to sound a lot like him.

Cecile: You wanna tell me how you're gonna deal with all of that anger? Barry, I can feel it pouring off of you. What are you planning?
[sensing another wave of emotions]
Cecile: Oh, my God. You want revenge. But why? Bart and Nora said that Iris is alive.
Barry: And I know she's not.
[seeing her react to something]
Barry: What is it?
Cecile: Someone's calling my name. And now I-I'm picking up desperation.
Bashir: [appearing in front of her] You have to find us. You're the only one that can help us.
Barry: Who is it?
Cecile: Bashir, what happened to you? Where are the other Forces?
[he flickers in and out, then vanishes]
Cecile: He's gone.
Barry: Was it our Bashir?
Cecile: Yeah, and he's in pretty bad shape. He said that I'm the only one who can help them. I think he wants me to help bring back the other Positive Forces.

Cisco: You expecting trouble?
Detective: Cops always expect trouble. In this city, I expect super-evil flying monsters.
Cisco: That's a solid expectation.

Ralph: Gentlemen, I have arrived.
Cisco: Ralph.
Dr. Harry Wells: Dibny.
Barry: Wasn't expecting you.
Ralph: You said, see you later. I assumed this was a superhero hangout and this was a test for my highly attuned detective abilities, which, for the record, nailed it.
Cisco: Okay, or...
Dr. Harry Wells: You weren't invited.

[first lines]
Iris: [on her blog; voice-over] To understand what I'm about to tell you, you need to do something first. You need to believe in the impossible. Can you do that? Good. Because all of us, we have forgotten what miracles look like, maybe because they haven't made much of an appearance lately. Our lives have become ordinary, but there's someone out there who is truly extraordinary. I don't know where you came from, I don't know your name, but I have seen you do the impossible to protect the city I love; so, for those of us who believe in you and what you're doing, I just want to say thank you.

Dexter: Who is Cicada? Officials believe...
Iris: Barry, maybe we should keep looking for the portal.
Barry: Yeah.
Dexter: But when Cicada resurfaced in 2024 after the Flash vanished, some were left to speculate that Cicada is not a man at all, but an immortal monster. All we know for sure is his body count, 152 victims and rising.
Barry: Wait, what? I knew we never caught Cicada, but he never stops killing?
Captain: Flash did everything he could, but Cicada killed more people than Zoom or even the Red Death. And the way the city saw the Flash, his legacy... it was never the same.

Barry: I just got the Speed Force restarted, now this happens.
Caitlin: And what about your speed? Has it been affected?
Barry: No. At least not yet. I'm still trying to figure out how this is even possible.
Caitlin: I have no idea. I have never seen biometrics like this.
Cisco: You've never had a god for a patient. The Speed Force took this form right after H.R.'s funeral. It's like Zeus coming down from Olympus disguised as a mere mortal.
Iris: Okay, but why would a god be asking for our help?
Caitlin: Whatever the answer is, I need to figure out a way to accurately monitor her recovery.
Cisco: [Barry speeds away and back] Holy mother.
Barry: You good?
Cisco: Yeah, just give me a minute.
Barry: She's wearing my Speed Force gauge now. Right now, it's red. If it changes, hopefully that'll tell us her power levels are recharging.
Caitlin: And if that's the case, maybe she entered a comatose state to help heal herself.
Iris: Makes sense, and when she recovers, she can tell us who did this to her. It.
Barry: Maybe it's the same thing that can rip through an antimatter bomb like it's tissue paper. Those are residual geothermic isotopes. They're all over her.
Cisco: You think Fuerza did this? Oh, that must have been one hell of a fight.
Barry: Not as big as the fight we're gonna take to Fuerza.
Cisco: Okay, but this isn't just some run-of-the-mill meta we're talking about here. Whatever Fuerza is, she's powerful enough to hurt the frickin' Speed Force. And what if she doesn't wake up? What happens to you?
Barry: Look, we've faced big threats before. Crisis, Savitar, Thawne. We beat them all. If Fuerza did do this, she should be afraid of us.

Sherloque: I don't understand. Explain again to me what the difference between this day and every other day in America?
Cisco: It's a holiday when we all get together and celebrate and eat a ton of food. Like, a gross amount.
Sherloque: Again, what the difference between this day and every other day in America?

Bart: So that's how we did this?
Nora: Yeah, when we chased Godspeed through time using the Cosmic Treadmill. Only it wasn't built to handle the energy of three speedsters at once. Our tachyon energies must have caused massive temporal fissures.
[opening a newspaper archive]
Nora: Oh, this is why Dad has time-travel rules. According to this, Uncle Jay never married Aunt Joan.
[checking her gauntlet and gasping]
Nora: Oh, my God. We erased her. We erased her! My gauntlet just confirmed it.
Bart: Is... is that part of those fissures that... that we caused? I'm sorry. How far back does it go? How many of them are there? Can we fix them?
Nora: [shushing him] Voice down. Okay, we work backwards identifying everything new to the timeline, figure out where things first started changing, and put them back where they're supposed to be. Okay.
[scrolling through more headlines]
Nora: "Corrupt Mayor Bellows Jr..." Farther back. "Trickster invades Tibet..." Farther back. Who's Booster Gold?
Bart: Keep going.
[she scrolls to another article]
Bart: "Zoom attacks CCPD Chief of Police Joe West." Grandpa Joe wasn't chief then, right?
Nora: But he is in this new timeline.
Bart: When did he get promoted?
Nora: There are no time fissures before that...
[finding an article about Joe getting shot at a robbery]
Nora: This is where the change happened, and it altered everything that follows like dominoes.
Bart: Okay, "Detective Joe West heroically took a bullet during a jewelry theft the afternoon of December 31, 2013."
Nora: And Dad couldn't help him because he was still in a coma.
Bart: You thinking what I'm thinking?
Nora: If we save Grandpa Joe from getting shot, things will return to normal... and we get Aunt Joan back.
Bart: New Year's Eve 2013, here we come.

Nora: You know, when I was your age, I had to come to this very same police station all by myself, too. It's kind of scary in here.
Grace: I'm not scared.
Nora: Well, I was. I'm scared all the time. In fact, once, there was this really bad guy and he wanted to hurt a whole lot of people on a plane.
Grace: A meta?
Nora: Mm-hmm. But I helped stop him.
Grace: Whoa, really?
Nora: I was terrified, though. But you know what my secret is? I just imagine what will happen after I do the thing. Do you want to try it? Okay, close your eyes.
[Grace does so]
Nora: And think about what will happen once you're out of here.
Grace: I'll see Uncle Orlin.
Nora: Let's find our way out of here, okay?

Oliver: You're late. Barry, how can you have super speed and still not be on time?
Barry: Sorry, I guess the super tardiness kinda neutralizes it.

Mark: All right, I know that you're angry, 'cause I know all about you and you know nothing about me. So go ahead. Ask away.
Frost: How did you know?
Mark: Oh, that you and Caitlin were related? I'm an observant guy; sue me. In studying you, I also traced your movements. Every fight, every battle.
Frost: Stalk much?
Mark: Honestly, finding out that you and Caitlin seem to come and go interchangeably was... well, let's call it more of a happy accident. Did come in handy, though.
Frost: So you could frame us? That's why you sent me to that empty warehouse, which wasn't really empty, was it?
Mark: Very good. See, I already had the chip. I just needed one final thing: a neurogenic scan of you to perfectly replicate your powers.
Frost: Neurogenic? That's quite a fancy word for a thief.
Mark: Uh, yeah, maybe because I'm not a thief. I simply took back what was mine.
Frost: The microchip? You built it. So you worked at Ivo Labs.
Mark: I'm a cryo-geneticist. The best.
Frost: Oh. Let me guess, your former employers didn't agree?
Mark: Well, they said that the... experiments I was conducting were... inhuman. So they got a warrant to put me in a cozy Iron Heights cell for the rest of my life. Unlike you, I've been smart enough to avoid capture. I'd rather die than end up in some warm prison.

Joe: [Barry uses his powers to knock out two thugs] That never gets old.

Barry: What's that?
Caitlin: I whipped up this cocktail of atomized DTPA and potassium iodide. It should flood our thyroids with enough non-radioactive iodine so that if our containment suit doesn't work, it should offer us some protection from radiation.
Leo: Some protection. How vaguely reassuring.

Barry: In times like these, when life is getting me down, and the world seems like it's gonna end... ship! There's a least one power that we both still have, and that's the power of...
Kara: Friendship?
Barry: Yeah, that's exactly what I was gonna say!
Kara: Well, it's an easy rhyme.

Iris: Eva, you said that this place was a mirror-version of our own. How is that possible?
Eva: Think of it like this.
[showing her an origami animal]
Eva: Our reality is observed by three dimensions: width, depth, and length.
[unfolding it]
Eva: The superstring theory posits that there are other realities, fractal dimensions humans can't see. So... two sides. One, our world. The other is just some empty reflection. I'm a quantum engineer. It's... it's my wheelhouse.
[hearing a high-pitched ringing, Iris holds her head in pain]
Eva: Yeah, that is a side effect of this dimension. I... I barely notice them anymore.

Barry: What do you want?
Mar: For your universe to survive.
Iris: The plinth... you destroyed it. You destroyed Nora's message.
Mar: An unfortunate side effect. But I needed to discourage you.
Barry: From doing what?
Mar: Hoping. Your determination is boundless, Flash - it is one of your greatest qualities - but you cannot avoid the coming Crisis.
Iris: Barry has five years before he vanishes.
Mar: No longer. December 10, 2019. On that day, he will answer the call and make the ultimate sacrifice. Soon... this world will fight for the fate of all the known universes.
Barry: I'm not going to leave my family. There has to be a way to stop what's coming.
Mar: I am sorry, but the events have been set in to motion that you cannot possibly comprehend.
Barry: I don't need to understand them! Just tell me what I can do.
Mar: To survive? You can't. In order for billions to survive this coming Crisis, the Flash must die.

Iris: What are you thinking?
Eobard: Well, I'm thinking you should be at home resting up for our big day tomorrow.
Iris: I will.
Eobard: [seeing she has something on her mind] What?
Iris: It's just that Allen seems off. Baby, he called me his lightning rod. Only you call me that.
Eobard: I know. But he's smart. He's attacking our love. We cannot let him pull us apart.
Iris: He won't.

Iris: Ryan, I've won two Pulitzers. Why can't I write my own wedding vows?
Ryan: Iris, tonight you told me to stop thinking so much and listen to my heart.
Iris: Yeah, okay, I get it. That's what I'm supposed to do now...
Ryan: 'Cause it works. Look, tonight I saved a kid living in their van near the waterfront, just like I was before I found the Batsuit. Some lowlifes were mugging her, and as I was kicking their asses, my heart told me what I want. I want to save a kid like Cora saved me. So after I dropped their sorry asses off at the nearest precinct, I called Sophie. We're gonna adopt.
Iris: Ryan. I'm so happy for you.
Ryan: Take your own advice. Trust me, if Eobard's the one, the vows will come.
Iris: And what if he isn't?
Ryan: Then I will get you out of here in a hot minute. My car drives really fast.

Cecile: Joe, we are not gonna need a katana at the hospital.
Joe: Okay, so you're in my head again, and it's entirely possible that we get attacked by a samurai at the hospital.
Cecile: You have already repacked that bag five times. You've read ten different books on birthing methods.
Joe: By the way, I love the one about Lamaze.

Detective: What kind of a tool steals a yellow Humvee?
Joe: What kinda tool BUYS a yellow Humvee?

Cisco: How did Thawne manage to build a Speed Force machine on his own without a journal to guide him, but all the brain power in S.T.A.R. labs can't even get this thing to work. It's like we built a 12-ton paper weight.

Julian: [Reviewing footage of Gypsy fighting] She's good.
H.R. Wells: She's great. I mean Gypsy is a legend on my earth.
Caitlin: So why exactly did you agree to fight her?
Cisco: I don't know.
Barry: You did what any of us would have done.
H.R. Wells: I might... Not have done it. Just being honest.
Cisco: Okay, alright. Lay it out for me. What are my chances here scale of 1 to 10?
H.R. Wells: She's gonna kill you.
Julian: It's a pretty solid 1 mate.

Barry: [cuddling with Iris] I never wanna let you go.
Iris: Then don't. I mean, I could stay like this all week.
Barry: That works for me. Iris, last night, I thought I lost you forever, 'cause I couldn't feel our connection.
Iris: Yeah, when I was in the Time Stone, I couldn't feel you, either. That's why I knew I had to get back to you. So I reignited our spark.
Barry: How?
Iris: You're my lightning rod, too.
Barry: Thank you.
Iris: Seriously? I mean, I know I've been gone for a while, but...
Barry: For reminding me that even the Flash has limits. Thawne couldn't accept that about himself, which is why he didn't survive.

Caitlin: [at one of Amunet's previous work addresses] Amunet used to work here? What did she do, bag groceries?
Joe: At least it's not human trafficking.

Cisco: Ladies and gentlemen, we finally have our hands on the meta-human cure. Cool, Cool. It's not like I spent weeks in the frozen tundra or anything.
Sherloque: No, no, no. I think that just people are waiting for inevitable "but" that follows such a big statement.
Cisco: Mmm, no, it's done, and thanks to Caitlin, we even have a way to deliver our silver bullet, so, no "buts."
Sherloque: I believe there is a big "but" coming.
Caitlin: But we need to test the cure on a meta-human.
Sherloque: There it is.

Mia: So Thawne messed with the timeline. No wonder I picked up on his temporal energy. He must be loaded with it.
Barry: Is that why you're here in 2021?
Mia: No, I tracked Thawne's scent by mistake. I was, uh, looking for something else.
Chester P. Runk: May... maybe we can help. I'm-I'm Chester P., by the way. New guy. And it is so cool to meet the future Green Arrow. Mia Queen, progeny of Felicity Smoak and Oliver Queen. I know all the stories.
Mia: Yeah, not all the stories.

Cisco: Looks like when you went down the thief also got disoriented too.
Barry: Maybe we both got whammied.
Iris: [entering the lab] Than you know how it feels. Hi, Barry. Or should I say The Flash.

The: It's over, Rathaway.
Hartley: You know my name. I know some names too. Caitlyn Snow. Cisco Ramon. Harrison Wells. I can hear the radio waves emanating from your suit. About 1900 megahertz. Is that them on the other end, listening? Are they going to hear you die?
The: No. They're gonna hear you get your ass kicked.

Cisco: Iris West-Allen, I know badassery when I see it and that was raw, undefined, cage-free, non-GMO, badassery right there.
Caitlin: You dove off a building.
Barry: For me.
Iris: Yeah, I guess I kinda did.
Nora: What was going through your mind?
Iris: "Uh, please, God, don't let me drop this key."
Nora: I mean, weren't you afraid? You're not a speedster.
Iris: No, I'm not. But my husband and my partner and my best friend is.

Hartley: My world is over. I hope yours burns.

Caitlin: That was cold, Flash. But this is colder.
[gives Flash a frosty kiss]

Barry: [hearing Hartley converse alternately in Spanish, French and Latin with his colleagues] God, I wish I had taken a language in high school.

Joe: When you first moved in with us, I thought it was gonna be too much - I'm already a single dad, finances were tough, and you were a little boy who just lost his mother - but, man, was I wrong. Within two weeks you had changed the whole dynamic of the house. Suddenly the house was filled with this... light... this energy. I mean, you brightened up everything. You've seen more darkness than any man will in a lifetime, and you never let it dim your soul. So there I was, thinking that I'm changing your life by taking you in, but the truth is you changed mine. So, don't lose that light now, Bar. The world may need the Flash, but... I need my Barry Allen.

Harrison: Yeah, why didn't you tell me that they were in danger? Okay, I could've - I could've gotten them out of there.
Cisco: Don't come at me, Nash. You're not here to keep me in the loop. You're not even part of this team.
Harrison: Oh, that's so hurtful. How's your little team doing in standings? Your little team...
Cisco: Okay, you don't see this is exactly what I'm talking about. No, you don't care about the team. You only work with us when you want something from us.
Allegra: Yo, keep me out of this.
Cisco: So, what is it this time? You - you got a couple glyphs you need Allegra to x-ray for you? Oh, or maybe you just want to open up another Pandora's box of Hell.
Harrison: Are you kidding me? I was the one to - I was the only one trying to stop Crisis.
Cisco: A Crisis you started! Billions of worlds, trillions of people gone, like they were never even born.
Harrison: And I paid for it! As Pariah I paid for it and still managed to help defeat the Anti-Monitor.
Cisco: Which did nothing for the people who died. Oliver. Harry. Jesse. An infinite number of Harrison Wells's. And we're stuck with the one who killed the multi-verse.

Vibe: Who's there?
Killer: Nash, is that you?
Pariah: I am no longer Nash, I am... Pariah. And I'm here to bear witness.
Vibe: To what?
Pariah: Tragedy.

Xotar: Flash, you found me.
The: Yes.
Xotar: Let me guess. You're psychic, too?
The: Not psychic, just patient. I knew if I ran around the city long enough, eventually you'd show yourself.
Xotar: How very underwhelming and basic of you. So, what's next? We fight? How passé.
The: Actually, what do you say we take a quick trip to Iron Heights?

Barry: Well, your source at the bar was right. She's here.
Iris: Yeah, but what is she doing? Any idea what that tech is?
Barry: No. But I'm betting it's connected to the first device she stole. We have to figure out how to stop her, before things get...
[a door slams nearby, and Goldface enters]
Barry: Worse.

Joe: [trapped underground with Nash] You selfishly don't believe in anything or anybody. I used to be like that. When my ex-wife left me and my daughter, I was broken. So much so that I... went somewhere I almost never go. Church. I didn't go to pray or anything, I went there to yell at the universe for destroying my life. Next day, I'm at home, I'm so hurt that I can't even... cook dinner for my...
[choking up]
Joe: ...for my daughter. Doorbell rings, I open the door to what looked like my whole neighborhood standing on my lawn who had cooked food for us. You can have faith in anything, but... it was then I realized that I... I had faith in people.

Barry: But secrets are like walls, and... you can't really know someone with walls between you.

Barry: Cisco. Hey, man, um, what Caitlin said...
Cisco: Was she lying?
Barry: No. Um...
Cisco: You're sorry? That you killed my brother? 'Cause he was here. He was alive until you created Flashpoint, until you did this.
Barry: I know, man.
Cisco: I don't even know how to feel right now. All I know is Caitlin is out there, and we need to find her. Can we do that?
Barry: Yeah.

Joe: [at CCPD with Barry] Oh, you scared the hell out of us, kid.
Officer: Yeah, that was quite the nap you took there, babyface, and you still look 12.

Barry: Fine, you want to ignore protocols? Now imagine millions dead all because of me!
[throws his lighting at Jefferson]
Black: [throws it back at Barry] It's your lightning. Keep it.

Lewis: [Leonard is pointing cold gun at the Flash]
[Lewis Snart to his own son, Leonard]
Lewis: Kill him
[the Flash]
Lewis: or you will never see your sister
[Lisa]
Lewis: alive.
[threatens as if to trigger the device that would explode the Thermite bomb he has put in the neck of his own daughter, Lisa]
Lewis: [Leonard is about to press trigger of the cold gun on the Flash]
Lisa: [at S.T.A.R labs, Cisco is about to removes the bomb from Lisa's body, but hesitates as the bomb could explode, killing Lisa and all of them. Lisa to Cisco] Do it Ciso.
Cisco: [at S.T.A.R labs, Cisco removes the bomb from Lisa's body, exclaims] I got the Bomb out.
[the Flash hears it through his device]
Leonard: [to Leonard] Lisa is safe.
[Leonard blasts the cold gun at the chest of his own father, Lewis]
Lewis: [Falls and is dying. A block of ice has penetrated his chest and heart. Groans. Says To Leonard] You were working with the Flash. I thought you hated him.
Leonard: not as much as I
[long pause]
Leonard: hate you.
[Lewis gasps, falls and dies. Ice block in his chest shatters]
The: [takes the cold gun from Leonard. Asks him] Lisa was safe. Why did you do that?
Leonard: He broke my sister's heart. Only fair I break his.
[Father Lewis has been child abusing his own daughter, Lisa, since she was 7 years. To punish the father for this, Leonard had literally jabbed ice in to the heart of the father, killing him]

Allegra: How dumb am I, huh?
Barry: Yeah, that feeling's going around.
Allegra: I've been working side by side with duplicates this whole time. Some budding reporter I am. Wait, does that mean I'm in charge of the Citizen?

Allegra: [finding a picture of Nash's] Who the hell is she?
Harrison: She... that's... that's... it's just someone I used to know.
Allegra: Well, she looks a lot like my doppelganger. Why do you have a picture of her?
Harrison: It doesn't ma.. it doesn't matter.
Allegra: It does to me! Dude, this is too weird. You know, I had a feeling something was off with you from the beginning, but I kept ignoring it, because I was just happy to find another person who actually believed in me.
Harrison: Okay.
Allegra: But this whole time, when you looked at me, you saw this other person. God, that is messed up, you know?

Cecile: When did you become so wise?
Allegra: I have my moments.

Cisco: What was his lair like? Did he eat the banana? Does he like King Kong? He's more of a Planet of the Apes kind of ape?
Joe: Uh, terrifying, no, and I didn't ask.

Barry: You gotta stop writing about this guy. I mean, he doesn't even exist.
Iris: I saw him, Barry. He wears a red suit, like a uniform or something, with a lightning bolt on his chest.
Barry: [scoffing chuckle] I mean, Iris, come on. You were drinking last night at the bar.
Iris: I was not drunk, and I know what I saw. He wears a mask. I think he smiled at me.
Barry: Okay, first of all, if he is wearing a mask, that probably means he doesn't want people to know who he is.
Iris: It doesn't matter who he is. What matters is that people know that he's out there. What is wrong with you? This is important to me. Why can't you be more supportive?

Joe: There was a house fire on Batton Street last month.
Barry: Okay.
Joe: The occupant died of smoke inhalation. I'm wondering if you could take a second look.
Barry: Joe, this case was already declared an accident.
Joe: Yeah. I, uh... I-I need a fresh pair of eyes on it.
Barry: Okay. I mean, what am I looking for?
Joe: Whatever you find.
Barry: Joe, I mean, I've got a mountain of cases I need to go through. Ones that haven't been solved already.
Joe: Okay, all I can say is that you'd be doing me a favor. And whatever you find, Barr, bring it directly to me.

Barry: My name is Barry Allen, and I am the fastest man alive. A friend recently gave me the idea for a new name, and something tells me it's gonna catch on.

Ralph: [getting caught by one of Loring's goons] Uh, I don't suppose you're a fellow bird watcher?
[he tries a karate chop, to no avail]
Ralph: Huh.
[he throws a punch, but the thug proceeds to get the better of him, dunking him headfirst into a drum of water]
Sue: Hey, Vin Diesel.
[taking him down with a karate kick]
Sue: [to Ralph] You still want me to wait in the car?

Chief: I hear you've got an update for me on the Carver RICO investigation.
Joe: Just sifting through the paperwork, I found evidence of multiple cover-ups. Homicides being filed as accidents, missing-person cases buried by falsified paperwork. And every victim has one thing in common.
Chief: You think Carver has a mole inside CCPD?
Joe: Somebody has been helping him evade criminal charges. The question is, why?
Chief: This is, uh, outstanding work, Joe, but investigating a mole, that's... that's a job for internal affairs, not for us.
Joe: We can't trust IA or anybody until we find out who Carver's bought. I mean, Barry agrees.
Chief: Hold on. Flash has seen these files?
Joe: Yeah.
Chief: Joe, this is not meta-related business. Is there a chance that this is becoming personal? I mean, I would totally understand given what Carver's done to Iris.
Joe: This is still about bringing a criminal to justice.
Chief: And we will, but Joe, this is your first year as captain. If your people think you suspect one of them of being a mole, and you're wrong...
Joe: Have a look.

Barry: Oh, God. What did I do?

Cisco: [about finding someone to merge with Stein] So how do we do that? Are we just gonna make a Tinder app for potential meta-humans? Because I'm pretty sure merging with Stein and randomly bursting into flames sounds like the biggest swipe-left of all times.

Hunter: You betrayed me!
Caitlin: You said you would spare them.
Hunter: I guess...
[puts mask back on, his voice changes]
Zoom: ...now we're even.
Caitlin: Jay, no!
Zoom: My name... is Zoom.

Ralph: You think there's any chance Frost could help us out with some sealant up there?
Caitlin: I don't think she's coming out today.
Ralph: She still having a tough time with your dad's death?
Caitlin: I mean, Frost protected me for so long that I don't think she's ever felt pain of her own before. Not like this.
Ralph: Well, I-I think I could help what that. Here.
Caitlin: "Ralph's 27 Steps to a Better Mourning"? I don't think Frost would respond very well to a pamphlet.
Ralph: Oh, come on. Look. Uh, number 10: go see your dentist because you should be doing that at least twice a year and you've been slacking, and it'll give you something to do other than dwell on the pain.
[Killer Frost emerges and seals up the hole in the roof with an ice blast]
Caitlin: There. Now will you shut up?
Ralph: Told you I'd get her to come out.

Cisco: I'd ask you to stay, but... I already know the answer.
Harrison: A man's gotta be where his heart lies. He's just gotta learn to listen to it. One more thing before I go. Whether it's me... or any of the many Wells predecessors, I want you to know that you taught us every inch as much as we taught you. Maybe more.
Kamilla: [watching Wells vanish] Yeah, I'm never gonna get used to that.

Iris: Uh... Barry... So Oliver Queen is the Green Arrow?
The: Yeah.
Iris: Oh, my God. He just got so much hotter.
The: Oh, my God.

Chester P. Runk: Routine traffic stop downtown? Oh, yeah. Looks like it was a good day to pull monitor duty, Chester P.
[his stomach growls]
Chester P. Runk: Ooh... snack time.
[taking out a lunchbox with the Superman "S" on it]
Chester P. Runk: Damn. I was supposed to make the egg salad this morning. Grandma Runk is gonna be epically mad. Now I got nada for lunch. Although... legally, I am entitled to a break every four hours, and it's only gonna take me, like, four minutes, 'cause the kitchen's just right down the hall. Then again, that is time enough for a nuclear meltdown and an alien invasion in this town. So...
Allegra: [coming in] Hey, Chuck.
Chester P. Runk: [jumping] Oh! What up, A? I thought you'd be working.
Allegra: I-I was, but then I remembered it's Wednesday, and that place I told you about at last week's D&D game, Hershfield's, today is when they have their amazing chicken parmesan sandwiches, so I thought...
[holding up the tote bag she's carrying]
Allegra: It's lunchtime. Why not surprise you with a treat?
Chester P. Runk: Wow, thanks. I guess I'm lunch-date-worthy now, huh?
Allegra: Chuck, you are date-worthy in all the major categories.
Chester P. Runk: I am?
Allegra: [realizing what she said] Yeah, definitely...
Chester P. Runk: I mean, that's... that's good... that's good to... know. You know? And I, too, think that you are also, um, what you just... like, worthy of what you just said a second ago.

Cisco: You think everyone on Earth-19 is missing crayons in the box, or just him?

Iris: Well, that was the best takeout world tour yet. Coq au vin from Paris, sashimi from the Arctic...
Barry: The Kansas State Fair funnel cake was Clark's recommendation.

Jefferson: You look like death warmed over.
Barry: I need your help.
Jefferson: Barry, what the hell is going on?
Barry: Injustice.

Joe: So, human bomb. Must be Tuesday in Central City.

Jim: In another life, I was a decorated police officer, a hero in my own right, but then I was called to a higher purpose. It's your turn now, Oliver. Only you can light the spark, Oliver. It is your destiny.
Oliver: What is my destiny?
Jim: To save everyone. Otherwise, all universes - all the people you love will perish.

Barry: Dig, what are you doing here?
John: Kicking your butt. Now get up. Come on.
[they continue the fight]
Barry: Did you guys redecorate the bunker?
John: Oliver, you've been to A.R.G.U.S. a million times.
[the fight continues again]
Barry: [while blocking a punch] Oliver?

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.

Ralph: God, that mask. It's like one of those porcelain dolls that's gonna kill you while you sleep.
Cisco: I thought it was more like a rag doll. Yeah, that's right. Still got it. Hold your applause.
Ralph: Guess it's off to Iron Heights for slippery old rag doll.

Red: Welcome to the era of the Red Death.

Bart: You know, even though future-you told us about your vow renewals, like, a million times, I still get pretty weepy.
Nora: Me, too. I mean, the love in this room when you two kissed...
Iris: We have such an amazing future ahead of us.
Bart: Yeah, if we didn't change it.
Barry: I checked with Gideon. No changes to the timeline. Everything's fine.
Nora: Well, on that note, we should be getting back to 2049 sooner or later.
Bart: Yep.
Barry: Keep the future safe. You're both gonna make great heroes.
Nora: I already am.
Bart: I'm gonna make you proud, Dad.
Barry: I know.

Joss: You want us to work for you?
XS: Not for me. With me. One big score split four ways.
Brie: What's the catch, goody two-shoes?
XS: No catches, no tricks. Just one condition. No killing.
Joss: [she laughs, and Brie scoffs] Well, this has been really fun, guys. I'm out.
XS: If anybody dies, the cops will be all over us.
Joss: Yeah, you would love that, huh? I was surprised that the Flash isn't already here.
XS: I'm not working with him anymore.
Joss: Look, you can put on your leather and you can act like a bad girl all you want, but you will never be one of us.
XS: What about the ice patch? If you don't trust me, why did you stop that test car from running me over?
Brie: Is she for real?
Joss: It was cold. Water freezes.
XS: Not like that, it doesn't. Look, these past few months, I have been through a lot. I'm not the same person I was.
Joss: Okay. Prove it. What's the job?

John: Oliver's last will and testament was read yesterday, and, um, he left something for you, Barry.
Iris: Oliver's mask.
Barry: It's the original. This is the one I made him.
John: Yeah, it's interesting, because Oliver was never a man given to sentiment.
Barry: [noticing something] Hey, do you see this? Right above the left eye. Oliver hasn't worn this in years. Why is there a mark on it?
John: I don't know. Felicity skimped on the dry-cleaning?
Barry: Or he left it on purpose. I mean, you just said it. Oliver wasn't sappy. What if the mask is a clue to some new threat out there, something too dangerous to put in writing?
John: Barry, you got all that from a smudge mark?

Guard: Missing those fancy trophies? What's that? You're still looking for the third one? It's already here. We picked it up last week. Hey. Keep it moving, Houdini. What are you trying to pull?
Abra: [escaping from his restraints] Nothing. It's already done.
[knocking the guard out, then gaining access to where the obelisks are being held]
Abra: And then there were three.

Dr. Harry Wells: [about Zoom] Did he follow you here?
Cisco: I've seen Heat like fifty times, okay? I know how to shake a tail.

Allegra: Didn't you get shot yesterday? Shouldn't you be soaking in a tub of frozen peas or something?
Killer: And miss out on my first Valentine's Day? No way!

Dr. Harry Wells: I think a better idea instead of playing Hoodlums and Holograms would be to rebuild the Particle Accelerator to get Barry's speed back.
Barry: Yeah, Wells, that's what you keep saying.
Dr. Harry Wells: That's right.
Barry: But look at what that explosion did to this city.
Cisco: Not to mention the last time we tried something like that we blew a hole in the universe and created, like, fifty portals to your Earth.
Iris: Which is exactly how Zoom and his henchmen got here in he first place.

Wally: Amala told me a story once about a mother who lost her only son. She was so heartbroken, she asked the Buddha to bring him back to life. He said he would, but he had one request: a mustard seed from a family that had never lost a loved one. So she went from neighbor to neighbor asking for seeds, and when she would ask "Has anyone in your family lost someone?", the answer was... was always yes. The Buddha was trying to have her understand that as much as she suffered, she wasn't alone. When I found out the Speed Force was dying... I forgot how much you were suffering, too. And I'm sorry. I am.
Barry: I did this. I deserve your anger.
Wally: So do something with it. We can't punish ourselves for the mistakes we've made. That's a closed door. But we can take responsibility for our actions, no matter how great the obstacle to overcome.
Barry: Amala teach you that, too?
Wally: No. You did.

Dr. Harry Wells: All right, we're synched up with whatever the heck that thing is.
Joe: Finally, something we're both baffled by.
Dr. Harry Wells: I am kidding. That, my friend, is a 75-KTSB 40,000 watt reverberating sound amplifier designed to single out the operating frequency of every single Earth-2 being on this planet, which, when contained and magnified by The Flash, creating a sound pressure wall around the city, will render all of us Earth-2 beings unconscious.
[tossing a set of protective earphones to Jesse]
Dr. Harry Wells: Hence... the safety precautions.
Henry: I'm baffled by it.

Marlize: Since the age of Enlightenment, when reason, debate, and the search for truth flourished, the world has improved by nearly every measure in human advancement, and continues to do so. There is no doubt in my mind that as technology continues to bloom, so will all of humanity.
Clifford: [Chuckling]
Marlize: Professor DeVoe? You disagree?
Clifford: Well, uh, yes, I guess. Just, I have a more realistic view of humanity whenever technology is concerned.
Marlize: What do you mean?
Clifford: Well, you spoke of the Enlightenment. One only has to look at history to find the answers.
Marlize: Okay, let's. Life expectancy over the past two centuries has increased from 30 years to nearly 70 years.
Clifford: And-and we should assume that's a good thing? Each new day, we have to share very limited resources with anything up to 200,000 newborn babies, most of whom will end up living in abject poverty and famine.
Marlize: Well, thank you very much, Professor Doom and Gloom. Remind me never to take one of your history classes.
[Crowd Laughs]
Clifford: Perhaps you should. There's much I could teach you.
[Crowd Murmurs]
Clifford: The Taoists, in pursuit of immortality, discovered gunpowder. Alfred Nobel created the Nobel Prize so he wouldn't be remembered as the man who invented dynamite. History has shown us time and time again that whenever a technological advancement can be used to hurt humanity, it will be.
Marlize: You can't blame technology for the way men choose to use it, Professor.
Clifford: You can't ignore that the best of ideas by the smartest of men often have a way of becoming corrupted.

Barry: Ouch. All-nighter, huh?
Caitlin: I haven't been this tired since Killer Frost decided to go to Burning Man.

Damien: Imagine how devastating it would be to the Flash to lose his friends on the eve of his wedding. Nothing destroys a man like losing the ones he loves the most.

Barry: Ever since I came back from the Speed Force, I have been constantly and genuinely happy. My friends are safe. Joe's gonna be a dad again. And next week, I get to marry the love of my life. I have nothing more to lose now than ever before.
Iris: Yeah, but what about when Cecile has the baby? Or after we get married, or even when we have our first child? You know as times goes by, there's even gonna be more for us to lose. And people are always going to come after us. You can't let that consume you, you just have to live in the moment and face it as it comes.
Barry: How are you not scared?
Iris: Because we're the Flash.

The: Chillblaine... what are you still doing with these guys?
Mark: My job.
The: No. You're gonna build the Red Death's cosmic treadmill for him?
Fiddler: Him? Somebody needs to catch up.
The: That machine can tap into forces beyond anyone's control. If she uses it, it could damage the whole timeline, destroy countless lives.
Red: [whooshes in] What a pity that would be.

Cisco: And I can still picture the way you looked at me when you called me a son, and you crushed my heart... with your fist.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Cisco, I'm sorry.
Cisco: Yeah. It sucked.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Yeah. Not for killing you. I'm sure I had a good reason.

Renee: Sherloque, you scared me to death.
Sherloque: Well, I apologize. But when you don't answer my many emoticon pictograms...
Renee: Well...
Sherloque: ...no, I fear the worst, huh?
Renee: I was in the library. What could've happened to me?
Sherloque: Stacks collapse. Livid librarian.
Renee: [amused] Really?
Sherloque: Death by Dewey Decimals?

Barry: Mon-El seems like he really cares about you.
Kara: [laughing scoff] Mon-El only cares about himself. He lied to me about who he really is for nine months.
Barry: Hmm.
Kara: I can't shake it. I thought it was gonna be something special like what you have with Iris.
Barry: That is... off track.
Kara: Oh, I'm sorry.
Barry: I asked her to marry me.
Kara: You did? That's great.
[seeing his look]
Kara: Did she not say yes?
Barry: Oh, she said yes, but I guess I did it for the wrong reason, and, I mean, I love her, but I was trying to change the future. Then I pushed her away so I could focus on saving her, and it's just a mess now.
Kara: Hmm.
Barry: Everything's so simple when I'm running.
Kara: Or flying.
Digsy: Shut up! Both of you.
Barry: Stein?
Digsy: Who... who's Stein?
Barry: [realizing it's just another character] Right.

Allegra: You okay?
Caitlin: After our fight with Eva, I have just been exhausted. And now I've got this headache.
Allegra: If you need to recharge, can't you just, like, Frost out?
Caitlin: No, not out here. I... you and I know she's reformed, but technically, there's still a warrant out for Killer Frost's arrest.
Allegra: [her phone buzzes] Ugh.
Caitlin: Who's that?
Allegra: Iris wants notes on a Citizen article. Kamilla's been spending all her time photographing the destruction in the city. It's great that she's so inspired, but now I'm the only one that can give Iris any feedback. Maybe I'll stay here a little longer.
Caitlin: It sounds like you're avoiding her.
Allegra: Fine. I'm going.

Barry: Um, well, I was just wondering if you've ever written about time travel. But more specifically traveling to the future.
H.R. Wells: Oh, no, my best seller... oh, hey, 'The Future Ain't What It Used to Be'... that was...
[sighing and murmuring]
H.R. Wells: it was all about... it was all about this guy who's actively trying to prevent his own murder. Won the Nebula Award. It's well-received.
Barry: Wow.
H.R. Wells: Yeah.
Barry: Um, so this character... your character... uh, was he able to change his future? More specifically, if he allowed certain events to occur naturally, was he only cementing the very timeline that resulted in a horrible event later?
H.R. Wells: There were two schools of thought. One faction... one group of fans... they believed, you know, the future's ever-changing. You know, it's not fixed, and so you could make of the future anything you wish.
Barry: Right.
H.R. Wells: Another group of fans vehemently disagreed with it. They said, "No, no, no. "The future is fixed, and you can't change it no matter how hard you try."
Barry: Mm-hmm. Where do you come down? On a fixed or ever-changing future?
H.R. Wells: Well, I think that a man often meets his destiny on the very road he takes to avoid it.
Barry: Meaning?
H.R. Wells: Meaning... the future is fixed.
Barry: Yeah.

Barry: Look, I don't know, I guess our wires have gotten crossed a few times the last few days, but I think that hardly rises to the level of a crisis. After everything we've been through together, you and me, we're Barry and Iris. we're the Gold standard. I am so in...
Iris: Then how could you leave me? You left me, Barry. You just left me. Standing there, alone.
[getting emotional]
Iris: How could you do that?

Dr. Harry Wells: I think I need a Big Belly Burger. Anyone?
Barry: I'm good. Thank you.
Joe: Yeah no pickles.
Cisco: Two triple-triples please?
Dr. Harry Wells: You got money?

Iris: Barry, I can't lose anyone else. Not like Nora.
Barry: Maybe we're not meant to be parents. I mean if we can't even keep our own family safe...
Joe: That's a load of crap. Look, I've been feeling so sorry for myself that I've been neglecting the people that need my help. Baby girl. You and Barry think that you can't help your kids because parents are the only ones that can keep a family safe?
Iris: It's our job to protect them.
Barry: She's right, Joe.
Joe: Barry, when you decided to be the Flash, I tried to talk you out of it, said you were just a kid. Did you stop?
Barry: No, no, it just made me want to prove I could make a difference even more.
Joe: And you sure as hell have. But Iris, when Barry can't do it alone or those times when he is gone like the first time he went into the Speed Force. Who took charge of this crew and kept us safe? You did. You're always there, side by side with him. Just like now, taking care of business. You two don't get it? Sometimes it takes a family to protect a family.
Barry: Iris, we've been trying to keep the forces apart.
Iris: When we should be bringing them together.

Dr. Harrison Wells: [looking at the Time Sphere] It's beautiful. Rip Hunter would be impressed. He built the first one of these. Interesting man.
[the wormhole spits out a silver helmet with gold wings]
Joe: Now what the hell is that?
Dr. Harrison Wells: That's my cue to leave. Thank you, Cisco.
Cisco: Don't ever come back.

Dr. Harry Wells: So when did you do it? After we returned to Earth-2?
Barry: Look, Harry, only a couple things are different.
Dr. Harry Wells: Oh, I'm sure. Not.
Cisco: Really? You guys are doing "not" on Earth-2 now?
Jesse: Uh, no. That's all him.

Ralph: So you really think this might be it?
Caitlin: Cisco sent me this sample to corroborate his findings, and it all checks out. I'm sending it back to him for final processing, but I think we may have found a way to suppress the meta genome.
Barry: Great. Then we can use it to de-power Cicada, stop him for good.
Ralph: So, what's the plan? Put this thing in a tranq gun and go all "American Sniper" on him?
Caitlin: It's not that simple.

Bart: Uncle Jay. You're-you're here.
Jay: Uncle? That's new. Um... yeah, I kinda like it. It's good to finally meet you, Bart.

Deathstorm: I will burn you to ash!
Hellfrost: You first!

Cisco: For real?
Barry: Stop, all right? I was gonna ask her out, and then a man-shark tried to eat me, and then Dr. Wells, the sequel, showed up.
Cisco: Okay, can we not use the name "Dr. Wells?" I'm just gonna call him "Harry."

Chester P. Runk: What up, party people? It's your boy Chester P., and I'm ready to rock your world with knowledge for free!
[imitating an echo]
Chester P. Runk: Free! Free! Free! Hey, today, we have a self-flying drone based off of an AI algorithm created by yours truly. I'm gonna upload the specs online, 'cause here at the Runkyard, we keep tech openly sourced and classy.
Caitlin: All right, how is this even possible? I've silenced my phone, I've turned off all the notifications, and look at what keeps popping up.
Allegra: [she scrolls through pictures] Are those all from Frost and Mark?
Caitlin: Oh, you mean my sister and her ex-con boyfriend? Yes, they are. Look at what they're doing.
Allegra: Looks cool.
Caitlin: No, it looks dangerous!
Chester P. Runk: Hey, hey, Caitlin. Do you mind just taking a wee little step to the right?
Caitlin: Are you live-streaming?
Chester P. Runk: Uh-huh, yeah.
Caitlin: WookieLover77 says, "Who's the girl? Her sister seems cooler"?
Chester P. Runk: Okay, that's it for today. Smash that "like" button.

The: What do you want from me?
Zoom: Everything.
The: You want to be me? Is that it? You want to be a hero?
Zoom: Heroes die.
The: Only if you can catch them.

Axel: There's just one thing I've been dying to ask. Why did you choose me?
James: Because I knew you had the strength to fulfill my legacy. Besides, it was in your blood.
Axel: Wait. What do you mean in... in my blood?
James: The real reason I tracked you down and groomed you to be the best you could possibly be, Axel - I am your father.

Cecile: Um, what did you need? Maybe I can help you.
Ralph: Oh, I need somebody to flash a badge and generally look intimidating, so.
Cecile: [giggling] You don't think that I can be intimidating. Oh, my God, you don't, do you? Ralph, I am the district attorney. You know I psychically teleported the Flash inside the Thinker's mind whilst giving birth to my daughter, sans epidural - it hurt! I literally saved the world between contractions, and you don't think that I am intimidating?
Ralph: I'm really intimidated right now, actually. You are very intimidating.

Nora: What is that?
Barry: Looks like wood.
Nora: From what? I mean, the floor is marble, furniture's untouched, and the skylight's made of glass and metal.
Barry: Well, if it didn't come from Cicada's point of entry...
Nora: She must've brought it from somewhere else.

Thea: [training against Supergirl] She really is a badass.
Sara: Yeah. It's kind of hot.

Sherloque: All right. Nora West-Allen, let's see what we have here.
[scrolling through journal entries]
Sherloque: Boring. Boring. Boring. Banality. Boring. Boring. Come on. I know you're working with someone, but no names. Clever girl.

Clifford: How did you beat me?
Barry: I didn't. We did.
Marlize: Their emotional attachment to Mr. Dibny have made them stronger than you would ever be, Clifford. But then, you wouldn't understand.
Clifford: No! This is not my will!
Ralph: [speaking through DeVoe] Not anymore. It's mine.
[DeVoe's body transforms back into Ralph's]

Eobard: Oh, look at us, Flash. Two peas in a pod. Just two speedsters frustrated by the limits of their speed.
Barry: I'm nothing like you.
Eobard: No, I'm the one who's gonna get his speed back. When I do, when I gain control of this body, when I reconnect to my Speed Force, you... you're gonna be too weak to stop me, aren't you? Just like you were powerless to save your daughter. I miss my Little Runner.
Barry: Nora was never yours.
[vibrating his hand]
Eobard: Do it. Do it. I wonder, how much speed will you have left after I'm gone?

Red: I just wiped out the last of your speed. Why do you think I kept Mark alive? To draw you in. So, now, you can't stop me. The whole world will feel the vigilance of my watchful eye, and if they step out of line, they'll pay the price for defying justice. I'm gonna do what you shoud've done in the first place - eliminate all crime by erasing it through my rule of law.
The: Those things out there...
Red: My sentinels. They'll keep watch and maintain peace. One way or another.
The: They're just psychic manifestations. They can't hurt anyone.
Red: Oh, Flash. When Bashir put Savitar in your mind to stab you in the chest, did that hurt?
The: I almost died.
Red: Mm-hmm, well, my sentinels are just as deadly.
The: I won't let you hurt this city. I'll swear I'll find a way to...
Red: Stop me? You served your purpose, Flash. All of this is because of you. You made all of this possible through your greatest mistake!

Nia: So we're stuck in a dream. Our bodies are dangerously close to overheating. And you're worried about an award?
Iris: Yeah, I know. It's stupid.
Nia: So talk to me. What's going on?
Iris: Well, um, right before you got here, I found that the article that I'm writing is gonna win me my first Pulitzer. Hazards of being married to a time traveler: I know way more about my future than most people.

Caitlin: Guys, are we sure creating an artificial Speed Force is the way to go? I mean, anyone who came in contact with Thawne's Speed Force got hurt.
Barry: Ours will be different.
Cisco: Yeah, but we still don't even know where to start.
Barry: Actually, I do. Every time Thawne tried to hurt me using Nora's memory, really what he did was reminded me how much I loved her. Made me realize that she's the answer.
Caitlin: [he shows them a leather-bound book] Nora's journal?
Barry: Thawne taught Nora how to build a Speed Force. Now she can teach us.

Sterling: You. Open the register. Give me everything inside.
Natalie: Dude, we just re-opened. There's barely anything in there.
Sterling: Really?
Natalie: Yeah.
Sterling: Oh. Well, I'm... gonna... start blowing stuff up, then.

Dr. Harry Wells: One strike incapacitates The Thinker. Two strikes, no more Thinker. I call it a Sonic Scepter.
Cisco: Okay. Points for alliteration.
Caitlin: Basically just a big tuning fork.
Dr. Harry Wells: My goodness.
Cisco: Well, like, I mean, it's not just any tuning fork. This might be the most powerful tuning fork in the multiverse. You must've laser-shaved this thing down to the nanometer.
Dr. Harry Wells: Shaved it right down to the last angstrom, as a matter of fact. Child's play for me and my Thinking Cap. The Sonic Scepter mimics Izzy Bowen's sonic frequencies, so we can penetrate a heretofore impenetrable force field of DeVoe. And here's the best part. Because there's no tech involved...
Barry: It's Kilgore-proof.

Ralph: So... I, uh, came to apologize.
Killer: So you broke in? My front door is locked.
Ralph: Yeah, I may have, uh, slipped under the doorframe, uh, literally. So I guess I actually have two things to apologize for.

Sherloque: Well, well, well. Bonjour, Eobard Thawne. If I am Eobard Thawne, what kind of man am I? Patient, right? Master of science. But also...
[blowing dust off of Thawne's horn-rimmed glasses]
Sherloque: A master of...
[pulling a sheet off of Thawne's electric wheelchair]
Sherloque: Subterfuge. Because not only... am I... Eobard Thawne, but I'm also... Dr. Harrison Wells. And that man... that man would keep his secrets...
[finding a button under the arm rest, he presses it and hidden compartment opens]
Sherloque: [removing a concealed flash drive] Close. What have we here? Well, well, well. Bonjour.

Jefferson: You know, this whole thing is strange, being 50% of someone.
Caitlin: Yeah, but you're 100% a hero.

Chester P. Runk: Blazing Bessie Blount, I just got my first solo crime scene call. Oh, since Cisco and Kamilla are away and all, I'm the only CCPD tech consultant around. I wonder what it is> Maybe it's a 10-90. Maybe it's a 10-11.
[gets a text from CCPD]
Chester P. Runk: Oh, snap, it's a 10-35. Frost, I am so sorry but...
Frost: It's fine. Go have your fun, Peralta.

Breacher: Echo is in an Earth-19 cell. Where he belongs. I'm sorry I lost faith in you, Cisky.
Cisco: You know what? It's okay. Things were looking pretty bad there for a second. But what I don't get, if she was dying, why come here?
Breacher: Because she knew you would bring Echo to justice. She had to lure him here, to this Earth.
Kamilla: She never lost faith in you, Cisco.
Breacher: Now that this is over with, what am I gonna do?
Cisco: The same thing I have to do. We start healing.
Breacher: I want to invite you to Cynthia's remembrance ceremony on Earth-19. You, too.
Cisco: I'd be honored.
Breacher: Cynthia would've liked you. I do, too.
Cisco: What's not to love?
Breacher: Awkward.

Barry: We can't let Kramer arrest Frost.
Joe: You don't think I know that? But we gotta follow orders.
Barry: So what are we supposed to do? Frost can't lay low forever.
Joe: The only thing we can do, Barry: find the real metahuman that did this.

Amunet: So why did you run away from me?
Caitlin: Tried. Tried and failed. Killer Frost would have been able to do it.
Amunet: Ah. I see. Caity, do you know what I was doing before I became the successful entrepreneur you see before you today?
Caitlin: Mean British nanny?
Amunet: Hmm. No. I was a stewardess. You see, unlike you, I did not have fancy scientists for parents. I did not collect scholarships or attend fine institutions. My career options were... limited. So I spent my days in a quaint little skirt in there serving coffee to handsy pilots, powerless to stop them. But then the particle accelerator exploded, and I was powerless no more. I showed those pilots the error of their ways.
Caitlin: Why are you telling me this?
Amunet: Because. Obtaining my powers was quite literally what made me me. But the same thing cannot be said about you. There are any number of doctors I could have come to for this procedure. I did not; I came to you. Because you, Caitlin Snow, are and have always been remarkable. You are bright. Resourceful. Resilient. And I am more than certain you can do this. So, with that said, unless you want to spend the rest of your medical career in the morgue, I suggest you buck up, darling. You know, pull on your big girl pants and do the bloody thing.

Ralph: Look, this is all just fantastic, but we're not really gonna do this.
Cisco: Yeah, I mean, um, we've already got a lot on our plate just trying to free one innocent man.
Caitlin: We all want Barry to be free, but I don't think that there's much else we can do right now. We kinda hit a wall.
Joe: Well, we're not gonna get through that wall while we're working on this.
Iris: It's just one case.
Dr. Harry Wells: And it's a case that we have to take. Allen has made one request of us since he's been incarcerated, and the request don't even involve himself. We have to take this case.
Cisco: It's unsettling how convincing you can be sometimes.

Chester P. Runk: Girl, you gettin' your art mojo on. I can dig it!
[Frost throws a wet rag at a canvas]
Chester P. Runk: Ooh. Okay, well, my bad. I did not mean to disturb the artist at work. But a friend of yours is out and about.
Frost: Who, Mark?
Chester P. Runk: Yeah. And I just figured it was something you should see.
Frost: Why? What do you know? Katie told you everything, didn't she?
Chester P. Runk: Nothing, I just remembered you two fought at that bar the night you got arrested?
Frost: Yeah, and again the night of the Force Storm.
Chester P. Runk: [showing her his tablet] Well, it says here that he handed in state's evidence and got parole, so, maybe he's turned over a new leaf.
[gasp]
Chester P. Runk: Like Captain Cold!
Frost: Uh-uh, I don't buy it. Not for a second. I'm just waiting 'til he shows his true colors, and then I'm gonna kick his butt right back to Iron Heights.
Chester P. Runk: Sounds kinda like you're gonna stalk him or something. You know, like, watch his every step. That would be crazy.
Frost: Great idea, Chester.
Chester P. Runk: [she leaves] Wait, what? No. I-I said that sounds like it's crazy. I said "crazy", right?

Cisco: [raising his wand] Expecto Patronum!

Chester P. Runk: How do you guys feel?
Barry: Uh, exhausted.
Cisco: And a lot less happy.
Caitlin: Chester, how'd you cure them?
Chester P. Runk: Okay, so I figured if we focus Carrie's full spectrum light particles through a vibrational filter, the resulting fractal energy would counteract the whammy effect. You know, it's kinda like Vibe saved the day one last time.

Flash: [about to sacrifice himself] Let me do this. Let me save you all.

Joe: What's wrong?
Cecile: I just keep thinking. I'm not doing everything I can to help the city as the district attorney. The justice system doesn't always work for metas... which is why I want to become a defense attorney for meta-humans.
[Joe has a surprised look]
Cecile: I know. I know you can tell me that I'm crazy, and we were not on the same page about Allegra today...
Joe: No, no, no, that's not crazy. That's incredible.
Cecile: Really?
Joe: Babe, you know how many people you could help in this city?
Cecile: Yeah. And I know where I want to start.

Iris: They call you the Clock King, right?
William: A somewhat florid appellation, but I've grown to see the humor in it.
Iris: You're going back to prison.
William: Really? And - and how do you reckon?
Iris: Because the Flash is coming.
William: Oh.
Iris: Oh, where are you?

Ralph: Bullet booger. Super gross.

[last lines]
Officer: [leaving CCPD] Thank God. Now everything can go back to normal.
[in a picture of New Year's Eve 2014 on the wall, Nora and Bart appear behind a row of CCPD officers]

Caitlin: Nora's in trouble. Grace's defense mechanisms must be attacking her.
Sherloque: [looking at Barry and Iris' scans] She's not the only one who's in trouble.
Caitlin: We need to get them out of there now.
Barry: [seeing the Reverse-Flash suit] It's Nora's defense mechanism.

Ralph: Even if all of that worked, we can't just waltz into the hospital with our soon-to-be-named dampening device. Dwyer smells us coming, he's... he's gone.
Nora: Then we do a time hack.
Ralph: A time hack?
Sherloque: It's when you...
Cisco: Plant something in the past so it's available in the future. You go back, you take the device, and you... hide it near the hospital, somewhere it won't be found for five years. He won't even know it's there.

Barry: [finding Zoom's transmitter isn't where it should be] Come on...
[hearing a plasma gun charge, he turns to find Harry behind him]
Dr. Harry Wells: Well, you change quickly.
Barry: What?
Dr. Harry Wells: Out of your suit.
Barry: [playing along] Yeah, no, I... yeah, it was... just too weird being in it without my speed.
Dr. Harry Wells: That's your own damn fault, isn't it?
Barry: I guess so.
Dr. Harry Wells: I know so.

Iris: Everything worked?
Nora: Yeah.
Barry: Is Dwyer still at the hospital?
Caitlin: Hasn't left her side.
Cisco: Did you plant the transmitter?
Nora: Yeah, we sure did.
Barry: Let's go get Cicada.

Wells 2.0: We had a Cisco on my Earth once. He was delicious.
Harrison: He ate the other Cisco.

Barry: We have to wait how long before we can use the meta-human cure?
Cisco: Not even that long.
Iris: Cisco.
Cisco: [snapping his fingers] It's gonna go by like that.
Iris: Cisco.
Cisco: 29 days.
Nora: A month?
Cisco: I know, right? Just one, teeny, tiny month until we stop Cicada's purge. You know, historically speaking, this is way faster than we've ever stopped a big bad, so...

Eobard: What are you waiting for? Shoot him!
Barry: I need you to know, no matter what happens, after everything Thawne's taken from me, he can't take away my feelings for you. I love you, Iris.
Eobard: Enough.
Iris: [shooting Thawne with the Velocity-Zero gun] Go, before I change my mind.

Oliver: I spent the past seven months in a maximum security prison, and no matter how bad things got - and they got bad - every cell had a toilet.
Barry: [kicking a wall panel] You sure you can't hold it?
[Oliver stares at him]
Barry: Oh, you wanna back up the pipes.
Oliver: And fry the dampener, yes.
Barry: That's a great idea.
[taking a panel off the toilet]
Barry: One problem. I'm not gonna be able to reach the valve with these on.
Oliver: You're gonna have to dislocate your thumb.
Barry: Are you crazy? I'm...
Oliver: I'm not crazy. You need to dislocate your thumb. Just apply pressure to the joint.
Barry: [hesitant] No, I'm gonna break my hand.
Oliver: You're not gonna break your hand, because in this reality, your ligaments have been stretched and conditioned in the art of escape by Anatoly Knyazev. Now man up, apply pressure to the joint, and dislocate your thumb!

Dr. Harrison Wells: Now that we have a sample, we'll get to work analyzing it, figure out the makeup of the poison, maybe get a clue as to his human identity.
Cisco: Or at least a way to stop him from turning into a mist. The Mist. Okay, that's his name. End of discussion.

Detective: Eddie Thawne's life was almost so different. iris was about to be his wife. Joe was about to be his father-in-law. But things didn't turn out that way, did they, Barry?

XS: Grace, I know you think your uncle wanted all metas dead, but he was a meta. That's why he took the cure and why he wants you to have it too. Your a meta, just like your uncle.
Grace: No, I'm not! Take it back.
Cicada: Don't listen to her, Gracie.
XS: This hate. It's consuming you, turning you into a monster. And what's worse, you're all alone.
Grace: Uncle Orlin wouldn't leave me.
XS: He had no choice. Take the cure just like your uncle did.
Cicada: No. Metas killed your parents, Gracie. They all deserve to die.
XS: Don't believe him, Grace. This is just in your mind.
Orlin: She's right, Gracie.
XS: It's why you created him. He's the man who took care of you. I know a part of you knows that this is wrong. But the other dark part of you is out there in the real world killing innocent people. You can only make a choice to stop it.
Grace: How?
XS: Wake up and take the cure.
Cicada: Shut up.
Orlin: You can do this, Gracie.
XS,63784: [repeating her name]
Grace: Okay, I don't want people to die. I'll take the cure.

Ray: Chester, what you did back there at Jitters...
Chester P. Runk: It was a huge mistake, I know.
Ray: Was the best gift possible. Between that and helping Barry again as the Atom, I have now realized that there is a middle ground to this whole balance thing, which is why I want to return the favor. So, what if I created a non-profit organization to fund young scientists like your Jitters friends?
Chester P. Runk: That would be awesome.
Ray: Great. I was thinking I could call it the Quincy P. Runk Foundation, if that's okay. Barry told me about your father.
Chester P. Runk: [hugging him] Uh, yeah, if you ever need, like, a consultant or anything like that.
Ray: I know who to call.
[turning for the elevator]
Ray: Oh, and Barry, there's one sure way to prove to Despero that you'd never destroy the world.
Barry: What's that?
Ray: Just show him who you really are, like you do with this team each and every day.

Cecile: Look, Kramer is appointed by the governor, right? She doesn't get results, she's gonna get reassigned.
Caitlin: Frost, I know this isn't fair, but it's our best option right now.
Frost: Fine, I'll quarantine here.

Warden: [handing over "Lindsay's" file] Well, this is her.
Joe: [recognizing her] This woman's name isn't Lindsay Fineheart.

Zoom: Time's up, Wells. What's it gonna be?
Dr. Harry Wells: I know what you're doing. I know why you keep sending villain after villain from our Earth to this one. You want Barry to get faster. You want him to get stronger. You want him to become more powerful, more full of... speed force. You're fattening him up like a Christmas goose.
Zoom: The more power he has, the more I can take and you're going to help me.
Dr. Harry Wells: Let me see her first.
[Zoom brings Jesse out of the wormhole]
Jesse: Daddy?
Dr. Harry Wells: Are you okay? Did he hurt you?
Jesse: Please help me. Don't let him take me back there.
Dr. Harry Wells: I won't...
[Zooms returns Jesse through the wormhole]
Zoom: Now decide, in return for your daughter's life.
Dr. Harry Wells: I'll do it. I will help you steal The Flash's speed.

Iris: Flash, Atom, who are you firing at?
Chester P. Runk: Yeah, yeah, he's right behind you.
[Despero throws a taxi-cab at The Flash and Atom, The Atom then shrinks himself and Flash to avoid the taxi and regrow to normal size]
The: [groans] Now I know how Diggle feels.

Oliver: Barry, I get that you're desperate to help and you want to be the hero and you want to save her yourself, but I think she has to have a part in it, too.
[Barry scoffs]
Oliver: What?
Barry: I-it's just the rules keep changing. It's one day I have to run through time, the next I'm fighting a telepathic gorilla, a-a-a-and now we're, what, we're-we're chasing down an immortal madman on a rampage against a reincarnated warrior priestess? I just never thought I had superpowers and feel more powerless than I have in my entire life.
Oliver: That part I understand.

Joe: Barry, don't you think Iris would recognize you voice?
Barry: [vibrating his voice] No, I can do this cool thing with my vocal cords, where I vibrate them so I sound like this. I know. It's cool, it's cool.
Joe: Whoa.

Despero: Armageddon waits for no man.

Dr. Ramsey Rosso: Of course. You're the Flash. But how did - when? You were struck by lightning. That is quite the origin story.
Barry: I don't know how you're doing this. Real or not, I'm coming for you.
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: And yet I'm not your foremost concern, am I? Not as much as your inevitable demise in a coming... Crisis? Goodness, you really are full of surprises, aren't you? So tell me, when you saw all those permutations, billions of possible futures ending in your death... What role did I play?
Barry: You didn't. You weren't there.
Dr. Ramsey Rosso: Really? Not even in one? Huh. Then again, you never saw what's coming did you? Frankly, neither did I. Makes one believe in the possible, doesn't it? You look scared. You should be. After all, it is the end of the world.

Barry: You gotta admit this is a little cool.
Oliver: I will find it a lot cooler when I wake up in my own bed tomorrow morning.
Barry: You woke up in bed with Iris?
Oliver: Mm-hmm.
Barry: We have to fix this right now!

Jay: I say we give 'em heck, Flash.

John: I mean, do you think he can do everything really fast? I mean, like, how fast do you think he goes to the bathroom after he's eaten something?
Oliver: This is you watching my back?

Gideon: Reprogramming complete. The Time Sphere's navigation core is now locked onto Nora West-Allen's temporal signature.
Iris: And you disabled the tracker that Cisco installed into the Sphere?
Gideon: Yes. However, there are still alarms in S.T.A.R. Labs. If you wish to use the Sphere undetected, you must activate it off-site.

Cisco: Believe it or not, this ain't the first time I've died in a past timeline. Ah, I once got a vibrating hand through the chest courtesy of Eobard Thawne. Well, more than once. I actually kept vibing that moment until I realized that it actually happened. I guess I should have known the same thing was happening now, huh?
Nora: I keep trying to absolute hardest to changed the outcome, but I end up failing every time. What if we can't fix this, Cisco?
Cisco: Nora, sometimes we fail because all we worry about is not failing. I'm so worried about my first date since Cynthia that I don't feel free to be myself around Kamilla, and then I just end up screwing it up even more.This - this intelligence and reconnaissance mess, I don't need this. All I need to do is be myself. Duh! And I sure as hell don't need to dress up like Ozone just to impress Kamilla.

Savitar: Fix this.
Cisco: Fix what? The Speed Force bazooka? I didn't name it. If I didn't name it, I didn't make it. If I didn't make it, I don't know how it works.
Savitar: Oh, you know enough about it to alter what it does.
Cisco: Oh, I see. So you want me to alter it. Well, what do you want me to alter into? Like, a hair dryer? A waffle maker? Oh, I know. Maybe something that's gonna fix that thin-crust pizza you call a face.

Barry: Do we know anything about Sunshine?
Joe: Only that she can disappear in sunlight and melt steel.
Iris: [entering] Her name is Millie Rawlins. Kamilla took a photo before we got out of Mercury Labs. We ran it through S.T.A.R. Labs' facial recognition and got a hit at the Department of Defense's database.
Joe: Ex-military, special ops.
Iris: She, uh, was transferred to the covert division after the particle accelerator explosion left her with the meta ability to bend sunlight. Her call sign was Sunshine.

Iris: How's Caitlin and her mom?
Barry: Caitlin is still running some tests, but she thinks Carla's gonna be okay. I mean, as okay as she can be given the circumstances.
Iris: Why was Cicada II even there tonight? I mean, why attack Icicle and Caitlin?
Sherloque: Perhaps the ice meta were not the primary target.
Barry: What could Cicada II want with the cryo-atomizer?
Joe: Well, we're not gonna figure it out tonight. So let's rest tonight. Are you coming back to the house?
Iris: Um...
[glancing at Barry]
Iris: No, I'm gonna stay at the loft tonight.
Barry: You are?
Iris: Yeah. We should talk.

Kristen: Right on cue. Khione called it.
Officer: What now, Chief?
Chief: Now, we get payback. Get your hands in the air, Zoom! This is your only warning!
Zoom: More of CCPD's finest for me to slaughter, huh? You shouldn't have!
[Khione and Mark arrive to help CCPD]
Khione: I already told you, Hunter. No one dies tonight.
Zoom: The goddess and her sidekick. Too bad neither of you are powerful enough
Zoom: To lock up the darkness.

Cisco: You scared us for a minute there.
Caitlin: Yeah.
Ralph: Can you tell us what happened?
Caitlin: I was home alone, and the wound from the light bullet was getting worse.
Cisco: I'm sure your run-in with Sunshine didn't help.
Caitlin: Yeah, so I tried to ice heal it, and that's when the wound ruptured. It must have been my immune system's way of protecting me. Guys, I need help.
Ralph: You just tell us what you need. I mean, who do we know that can help with a... light-ice wound?
Caitlin: There's only one person we can call. My mother.

Cisco: [in Icicle's ice lab] Caitlin, why did you bring me here?
Caitlin: Because, despite our last encounter with him, he did create a meta-gene, so I was thinking that you could use his research to do the reverse.
Cisco: Um... okay, don't look now, but if I didn't know any better, I'd say this feels a lot like you helping me make a meta-human cure.
Caitlin: I couldn't stop thinking about what you said about how a cure would give you a second chance at a normal life. No friend would stand in the way of that.
Cisco: But there is a difference between you standing in my way and you actively helping me.
Caitlin: I still think this is dangerous, but maybe if I'm involved, we can have some ground rules? Like the first, and most important, we will never, ever, force a cure on anyone.
Cisco: Okay. Rule number one. We're not just here to make a cure. We're here to make a choice.

Cisco: When the heat gun was fired, it increases surrounding temperature of the air dramatically, sort of like an extreme heat wave.
Cisco: [looks to Dr. Wells] "Heat Wave"...?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Stop doing that.

Julian: There is one thing you can do for me, mate.
Barry: Anything.
Julian: Quit.
Barry: What?
Julian: Tender your resignation from the Central City Police Department, effective immediately. I can overlook the unexplained absences, the constant disregard for the rules and regulations, but your moral compass is broken, my friend. I point-blank refuse to work with someone whose sense of right or wrong is as flippant as the weather, someone who thinks friendship is more important than justice. You are unfit to be CSI. Barry Allen has no place in law enforcement. Now, do we have an agreement, or would you like the detective to meet that girl?
Barry: All right.

Caitlin: So Clyde Mardon has a brother?
Dr. Harrison Wells: And both brothers survived the plane crash, and then the dark matter released from the particle accelerator explosion affects them both in virtually the same way.
Barry: Yeah, only Mark's power seem to be a lot more precise. To be able to control the weather like that, indoors?
Cisco: You'd have to be a Weather Wizard. Ooh, I've been waitin' since week one to use that one.

Chester P. Runk: [with their speed, Nora, Bart, and Jay reassemble the S.E.E] Whoa, you guys are stellar.
Bart: Thank you. What did we just do?
Chester P. Runk: Well, you saved me at least three weeks in the proverbial salt mines of science. At this rate, the modified version of my Pops' S.E.E. could be up and running in a day or two.
Jay: A day or two? Isn't there some way we can speed that up a little?
Nora: There is, but Mom and Dad won't change their minds.
Barry: We already did. We're gonna give August organic speed.
Bart: [chortling] Okay.
[realizing he's serious]
Bart: Oh, you're not kidding.
Nora: Where's Mom?
Barry: She's still with the Speed Force. They're both helping, too.
Jay: What changed your mind?
Barry: My kids, when I realized that their future starts right now.

Frost: [Diggle has another migraine attack] Spartan, look out!
[knocking Godspeed back with a blast of ice]
Frost: You all right?
Spartan: Yeah, I am, since you had my back.
Cecile: It happened again. I gotta get you out of here. Caitlin needs to examine you.
Spartan: No. Not while Heart is still out there.

Mecha: I know we said we'd protect the city while the team figured out a way to end this, but can a man get a timeout?
Frost: Not happening.
Mecha: [Godspeed clones appear] Hey, how long can you hold your breath?
Frost: What does that matter?
Mecha: When I say now, we're gonna suck in a much air as we can and hold it in.
Frost: What's that gonna do? Wait, you're not actually gonna...
Mecha: Oh, I'm gonna.
Frost: No, no, no, no, no.
Mecha: Now!
[Mecha-Vibe activates his gauntlet, and he and Frost are protected by a bubble; the Godspeed clones stop their attack and speed off]
Mecha: Yeah! Thank God those bubbles are temporary. That's right. Your boy put an auto-timer on the entropy bubble and in the process, answered his own question. A man can get a timeout! Am I a genius?
Frost: Never do that again.
Mecha: I'll take that as a yes.

Lyla: [watching Barry zoom away] Yeah, okay. That's kind of freaky.
John: Yeah. Yeah, see? I told you.

Sue: No one followed us. We're clear.
Ralph: Sue, I... I have been looking for you for nine months.
Sue: Ouch. I hope you don't bill by the hour.
Ralph: Where have you been? And-and... and why did your apartment explode in my face?
Sue: Yeah, hate it when that happens.
Ralph: Look, I'm serious. Now, who set that bomb? Why are they trying to kill you? And how long has this been going on for?
Sue: Uh, my ex. Because I know too much. About nine months. You done?
Ralph: No, I'm most certainly not done. Why is your ex sending you explosive candygrams?
Sue: [picking up a bottle of booze] Ooh, the cheap stuff.
Ralph: [taking the glass away] Look. Drinks later. Spilling your guts to tell a tragic story? That'd be now.
Sue: Fine. I fell in love with a murderer. Happy?

Despero: I was right about you all along, Flash. You are humanity's enemy.
The: I'm choosing to save a life, Despero, not end one. That's what heroes do. But you've never been a hero, have you?
Despero: What are you implying?
The: What you told me about your home world, that was all a lie, wasn't it? You weren't the heroic rebel leader. You were the despot. The one who inflicted pain and suffering. Who killed to get what he wanted.
Despero: I did what was necessary.
The: No, you're wrong. You've been wrong this whole time about everything. You're no hero, Despero. You're just like Thawne.
Despero: Only in your eyes, Flash, because I know what must be done. The greater good that must be embraced in order for this world to survive. All that remains is for me to show you.

Security: I'll never forget that day. People were screaming someone fell. I... I tried calling the emergency line, but it was too late.
Iris: What about before it happened? Did you see anyone suspicious on the platform?
Security: It was pretty empty when Mr. West died. The Red Line came in 15 minutes early. Hang on.
[double-checking her business card]
Security: Iris West-Allen? Were you his daughter?
Iris: I still am. What about after? Was there anyone there who had access to the scene before CCPD arrived?
Security: Ma'am, your father took a bad step. It happens sometimes.
Iris: Well, the reason I'm asking is because the video files that you sent over to CCPD were missing some very important frames from the moment of incident. That doesn't just happen unless you're saying someone got into your system.
Security: Or because we're on the same power grid as Sharks Stadium. Whenever there's a game, like there was that day, our automatic CCTV upload gets interrupted, and we end up losing chunks of data. It's a good thing we back up our files locally.
Allegra: [as he replays the footage, it shows Joe getting hit by a train] Is this the only angle?
Iris: No, it's okay. I was wrong. It was just an accident.

Joe: [about Wally] Damn. How fast is he going?
Cisco: Faster than Barry could at the beginning.

Volunteer: Who the hell are you?
Abra: I'm the greatest magician of all time, which is why you should be more than just afraid. You should be terrified. Boo.

Joe: All I'm sayin' is you already escaped the hornets nest once. Why go back and kick it again?

Cecile: So what do we do?
Ray: Well, he took our best shots like they were nothing.
Barry: We need to be ready.
Chester P. Runk: For what?
Barry: The fight of our lives.

Joe: [given an EMF gun] How do you use this?
Dr. Harry Wells: All right, so you aim it, and then you pull the trigger.
Joe: Smart-ass.

Iris: [watching Cisco] Promise me, if we ever do get married, you will not do THAT dance at our wedding.
Barry: Oh, I can promise you that. I mean, not the wedding, the dancing. What?
Iris: I... I don't know. I just think it's weird that we're married in the future and on Earth-2.
Barry: I wonder what our married doppelgangers are doing tonight.
Iris: Oh, probably Earth-2's equivalent of "Netflix and chill."

Caitlin: Since when did we have facial recognition software?
Felicity: Happy Hanukkah.

Barry: What made you look into Mayor Bellows in the first place?
Ralph: Oh, it was a client. Asked me to follow the mayor. Never met him, though. He did everything over the phone.
Barry: Who was it?
Ralph: Only gave me his last name. DeVoe.
[Barry flashes back to Abra Kadabra and Savitar mentioning DeVoe]
Ralph: What's wrong? The name DeVoe mean something to you?
[Barry gives a small nod]
Ralph: I smell a mystery.

Elongated: You guys still have those meta-cuffs?

Barry: How's Ralph?
Caitlin: I've never seen anything like it. I can't quite figure it out. His cells are kinetically inverted. It's like they're the reverse of themselves.
Cisco: [meaning the mirror gun] Should've spent more time trying to figure out how this thing works.
Nora: I just don't understand why he would jump in front of that blast. I mean, why would he do that?
Sherloque: That's the question, isn't it? That's the question.
Cisco: In other news, Cicada deuce is still MIA.

Barry: How do you guys say "see ya later" over there?
H.R. Wells: Ah.
[poses dramatically]
H.R. Wells: Until next communion.

The: Okay. I get it. You don't want to help me because even after all this... You're still jealous.
Eobard: I'm not jealous of you. I pity you.
The: I mean jealous of them.
Eobard: Who?
The: This new speedster out there living a life you lost while you can barely move. Their journey is just beginning. Yours is just over. What's it like knowing you've been replaced?
Eobard: I won't be replaced. I will never be replaced because no speedster is ever gonna feel for you what I do! Hate. Hate. Hate! Hate! Pure and infinite hate. I hid in plain sight for years to be next to you, to be close to you so I could hurt you. I devoted my life so I could destroy yours! No speedster will ever replace me! No speedster would ever feel what I felt, and because they don't, this new speedster... Doesn't care about you at all, and so there's another reason they don't want to be found.
The: So what is it?
Eobard: You really don't see it? I guess I am faster than you after all. This about it, Allen. A new speedster running through the streets... With frightening new speed just like you eight years ago.
The: They're hiding because they can't control their abilities. The fire was an accident.

Leo: Detective West, I know my Earth-1 counterpart gave you a lot of headaches. Hopefully I've begun to make up for that.
Joe: Man, you prevented a nuke from leveling the city.
[shaking hands]
Joe: We're good.

Barry: I just keep thinking about this speedster, what if they're the new Negative Speed Force Avatar?
Iris: Yeah, I feel like we just got rid of the last one.
Barry: There's something else. There was a symbol on his armor. It looked like a bat.
Iris: Barry, we have to talk to Chester.

Joe: Why the charade? Running around dressed like The Flash?
Hunter: To give people hope, Detective.
Joe: Hope?
Hunter: So I could rip it away from them. It's so fun pretending to be a hero.
Caitlin: You are no hero. You're nothing but a monster.

Cecile: Honey, the people that we love, they're only gone when we stop carrying them with us. How you choose to carry Nash is up to you.

Dr. Harrison Wells: Hey
Jesse: What happened?
Dr. Harrison Wells: We... You're fine. Your...
[CLEARS THROAT]
Dr. Harrison Wells: You're going to be fine. We got the drug out of your system.
Jesse: Oh... Looks like you saved the day again.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Look, honey, I know that this isn't enough. I... I promise you, though, I am... I'm going to spend the rest of my life making it up to you for the... for that terrible thing that I did.
Jesse: Yeah?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Yes.
Jesse: And how many more terrible things are you going to do to protect me?
Dr. Harrison Wells: What does that mean?
Jesse: I mean, everything that you do and everything that you have done for me, it's so dark, and you don't even see it. I mean, you didn't even hesitate out there.
Dr. Harrison Wells: [STAMMERS] Of course not, I'm not going to lose you, Jesse.
Jesse: Okay, but you just gave that crazy speedster everything she wanted, without even blinking. Without even thinking what other lives could be at stake.
Dr. Harrison Wells: It's my job to keep you safe, to protect you. That's my job. That's all that matters.
Jesse: Well, maybe it shouldn't be.
[SIGHS]

Cecile: Thanks for coming.
John: Happy to help. Where's Allegra? We could use the extra firepower.
Cecile: Yeah, no, I called, I texted, still nothing.
John: [with a sudden groan, he holds his head in pain] Do you hear that? Do you hear that?
Cecile: No.
[he staggers for balance]
Cecile: John! John, hey, hey! Are you all right?
John: These headaches. This one's a lot worse than the others.
Cecile: Okay, okay. Are you sure that that's all it is?
[using her powers to sense his emotions, she gasps and holds her head in pain, too]
Cecile: It's too much! It's like... fighting a hurricane!
[gasping as the sensation subsides]
Cecile: Okay, John, buddy, I don't know what that was, but that was a hell of a lot more than a headache. I... I felt something. I don't know what it was, but it felt huge. No. More like... infinite. John, maybe you should stay here.
John: No. No, I'm fine, I promise. If there was something really wrong, the doctors in Gotham would have found it. Really, whatever it is, I can handle it when we're done here. Let's just find Heart while we still have the chance.

Dr. Martin Stein: Gather around, everyone, please. Looking at all of you, thinking how far we've all come, and remembering those who are no longer with us, I'm reminded of a Hebrew word used during times of graduation. "Kadima." It means forward.
[raises glass as a toast]
Dr. Martin Stein: Forward!
Detective: Forward.
Iris: Forward.
Cisco: Forward.
Caitlin: Forward.
Henry: Forward.
Barry: Forward.

Barry: How often do you think about why your friends came into your life? Was it random, by design, or maybe a little bit of both? Regardless of the reasons, some friends you just know are gonna be by your side for a while. Others you're not so sure. And then there's that one friend who, well, you hope someday becomes something more, but "friend" will have to do for now, and that's okay... I guess.

Tracy: The sketch artist was, like, freaking Michelangelo. And you've got your woman.
Joe: No, not yet. And until we do, you could be in a lot of danger.
Tracy: You really think Jack Frost's sister wants to kill me? I'm no one.
Joe: In my experience, if she's come after you once, she's likely to do it again.

Caitlin: You gonna be okay?
Barry: I remember everything, hurting my own team... forcing Iris through the portal, leaving Kamilla and Singh trapped. I'm sorry.
Cisco: That wasn't you.
Barry: Yeah it was.
Cisco: Man, no, it wasn't. You were not yourself. Trust me, we get that. That's why we're gonna put it behind us, and we're gonna move on, all right? We're a team. We've got each others backs.
Caitlin: We're going to figure out a way to save Iris and Kamilla and Singh. I promise.
Barry: But Eva's still out there and I can't stop her 'cause I don't have my speed anymore.
Cisco: But you will. I'm running a full diagnostics on the Artificial Speed Force machine. It worked before. It can work again. All we to do is just figure out...
Barry: No. I'm done with that thing. You saw what it turned me into. I'm not Thawne. Connecting something artificial isn't gonna work for me... and since the real Speed Force is dead...

Reverse: Uh uh. I know what you're thinking. You're thinking what did I do that? Well, I did it to draw out your hero! What is taking him so long?
Green: You want a hero?
[knocks down Reverse-Flash]
Reverse: You. You know, normally, I'd be intrigued to meet the great Green Arrow, but unfortunately, today, I don't have the time.
Green: Where's William?
Reverse: Who's William?
Green: [draws back on her bow] Wrong answer.
[Reverse-Flash fades in and out]
Green: Oopsie. That's a temporal fade, pal. Looks like you're not too much longer for this timeline. Too bad. Now, where the hell's my brother?
Reverse: Enough with the questions.

Sherloque: Remind me again what we're looking for?
Cisco: Uh, it's like a huge, round glass bubble.
Sherloque: [gesturing to something nearby] You mean like that?

Henry: Sometimes you just have to slow down to get back to where you want to be.

Cisco: If I hadn't seen Jurassic Park, I wouldn't be nearly as frightened right now.

The: The meta we spoke to said Zoom created a breach and escaped.
Joe: And how did he do that again?
The: Who knows, but he's back on Earth-2 now.
Captain: Earth-2? Is that something else I don't wanna know about?
The: No.

Al: Well, this is a curveball. I thought I was going to have to come looking for you.
Barry: I'm not gonna let you hurt anyone else.
Al: I'm only here to hurt you, buddy.

Joe: Iris! Come on! This brunch reservation ain't gonna get any later.
Barry: Joe, don't worry. I'll make sure we're on time. After surviving Armageddon, we all deserve this.

Joe: Barry, get the chance to grow up with both parents. You don't have to grow up without a mother.
Barry: What about growing up with a father?
Joe: You will have a father - your real father. Wells has messed with our lives long enough. This is why you became The Flash, Barry. To put things right. You saved a lot of people's lives this past year. Now it's time to save yours.

Barry: This the mirror gun?
Iris: Yeah, it contains a bleeding-edge reflective microchip technology. If I can examine the gun up close, then maybe I can find some kind of small clue that connects the gun to Black Hole, since McCulloch created it. It's still in the Starchives, right?
Barry: Yeah. Yeah, it is.
Iris: Could you, um, get it for me?
Barry: Uh... I-I mean, unlocking a weapon like that sounds like a bad idea.
Iris: Barry, it's me.
Barry: I-I know, but I mean, after what just happened with you and Carver... w-what if the gun fell into the wrong hands? Just like the cold gun fell into Snart's.
Iris: It won't, trust me.
Barry: Iris, I... look, you I trust, but, um, the guy who just tried to have you assassinated, not so much. I-I mean, and if Black Hole had a weapon as powerful as the mirror gun, I mean, there's no telling what could happen.

Sherloque: Monsieur Allen, just for my record for today's events, what was the defense mechanism Nora was using?
Barry: It was one of the costumes from the museum.
Sherloque: What costume?
Barry: The Reverse-Flash.

Barry: According to the Department of Transportation, over 900 people rode that bus that day.
Joe: What about the bus driver?
Barry: That's where things get more interesting. He's dead. Drowned in his own bathtub.
Joe: [sarcastic] That's not too suspicious.
Barry: Harry said it was all connected. I think he's right.

Joe: Sue, I thought you and Ralph were laying low until we can clear your name.
Sue: Yeah, Ralph's tracking a lead. Arrest me if you have to. I had to come.
Joe: You mind telling me what's so important that you would risk your freedom?
Sue: Those people in there, those are not my parents. I know it sounds crazy, and when Ralph mentioned pod people a while back, I thought it was nuts too, but I'm telling you, that's not them.
Joe: No, I believe you. I've gotten over 100 calls in the last hour, the exact same complaint. All saying that people they've known for years aren't themselves anymore.
Sue: Do you think this has anything to do with the craziness at McCulloch?
Joe: Damn. I know what's happening.

Barry: The people we admire aren't always who we'd like them to be.

Barry: You are my lightning rod, Iris.

Ralph: We're going too fast.
Cisco: Think light thoughts.
Ralph: I'm thinking how you nearly got us killed.
Cisco: Think lighter!

Eobard: Iris West is my lightning rod, Reverse-Flash.
Barry: What the hell did you do?
Eobard: Nothing you haven't done before.
Barry: You created a Flashpoint.
Eobard: Wrong. I created a Reverse Flashpoint. I started by doing a little housekeeping at S.T.A.R. Labs, and then I took care of the one father you had left. Why? Because after our last encounter, it was clear to me you were faster than I was, and the only way to defeat you... was to become you. So I ran back to the year 2013 and made sure that I was the one struck by the lightning. I was the one that Iris West wrote about as the Streak. I led Team Flash. I was the one Iris West fell in love with. I stole your life! And because every hero needs a villain... I created that, too.
Barry: You wore my face. It was you that attacked the city that day. That's why they don't trust me.
Eobard: Made you think you were crazy. Crazy enough to beg, literally beg, Jefferson Pierce to steal your speed. What's it right now, 5%? Maybe less?
Barry: Thawne, what you did destroys the world. It creates Armageddon.
Eobard: No.
Barry: No, it's true, damn it!
Eobard: I would not create a perfect world just to watch it die. As a matter of fact, the only thing that is set to expire is you. And do you know why? Because I finally did what I set out to do all those years ago. I killed you as a child.
[Barry tries to punch him, but his hand goes right through]
Eobard: You can do that all night long. But the fact remains, at the stroke of midnight, my timeline will solidify... and you will cease to exist. And your precious Speed Force cannot help you now, because in this timeline, she chose me. And Iris chose me. I've won. I finally won. Who's faster now?

The: Cicada.
Cicada: Is that what you call me?
The: Not all meta-humans are responsible for what happened to Grace.
Cicada: Yes, they are. The destruction they cause, the death, the pain.
The: I know about pain and death, taking it out on the world. That's not gonna help. Think about Grace.
Cicada: She's all I think about, Flash. And I'm making the world safe for her. Every meta-human must go.
The: Then what about you? You're a meta-human now.
Cicada: I am, and after you're gone, I'll join you. All four of you.

Barry: You think she should come with me?
Iris: Yeah, Barry, I do.
Barry: Iris, if I do this, I'm going back to some crazy times. Savitar, Zoom, Thawne. Speedsters...
Iris: Who you've all outsmarted and defeated. Look, this was her idea, Barry. Her solution. And it's a good one. So unless you have a better reason why she should stay back, let her do this.

Barry: I stared at that newspaper for so many years. First it felt like a guide. You know, like proof that things were headed in the right direction. Then it became a sword hanging over my head. A part of me always felt like... if I vanish in whatever crisis is coming... maybe I was still out there somewhere, looking for a way to come back to you. According to The Monitor, that doesn't happen.
Iris: "To save the lives of billions, The Flash must die." What kind of crap is that?
[Barry chuckles]
Iris: No, I'm serious. I mean, The Monitor shows here up out of nowhere and says you're suppose to die on December 10th? The last I remember, the article said that you were in a fight with Thawne, not some cosmic disaster.
Barry: The article changed.
Iris: If that article can change, then that means we can still change the future.

Iris: Oh, now you show up.
The: I'm sorry I wasn't there for you today. It couldn't be helped.
Iris: It's okay. A girl's gotta be her own hero every now and again.
The: I promise I'll never be late again.
Iris: My best friend is always saying that, and he is always late.
The: You're worth being on time for.

Cisco: I have an idea, a way to get our people out of the Mirrorverse. We need a lossless, self-sustaining source of perpetual energy.
Harrison: Sounds like you're talking about the holy grail of science: a perpetual-motion machine.
Cisco: That's right. Hartley had some ideas. I think we can actually build one. We're just missing one component, and thanks to my travels, I know exactly where to find it: Atlantis.
Ralph: Finally, Crisis pays off in a good way for once.
Cisco: I know time is crucial, but don't worry. I'll hurry back.
Allegra: Can I come?
Barry: Actually, if you don't mind, I'd like for you to stay. Team Flash needs as many hands on deck as possible.
[she nods with a smile]
Barry: Now let's get to work.

Barry: I was ready to give up on her. You know, I mean, if I'm ready to do that, it makes me feel like... even after everything we've been through, I'm not a good parent. You know, I mean, maybe I never will be.
Joe: [laughing] Come on, Barry. You know that's not true. You're going to be an amazing father.
Barry: I wanted her to leave. The second that she got here, I did, I... I've held back from her. It... it still doesn't feel right when she calls me "dad".
Joe: Well, you didn't call me "dad" 'till... i-it was here, in this room, right after you got your powers. But you know why that was. You already had a dad; Henry. And when the whole world thought that that man was a criminal, Barr, you... you thought he was perfect.
Barry: Do you think Iris is right? Nora's plan, Thawne's plan, could be a good thing?
Joe: I don't trust that man. I never have and I never will. But I do... trust my granddaughter. And if we're gonna bring Nora home, Barr... you're gonna have to trust her, too.

Killer: What's Babel Protocols? I thought that was defense stuff you added to Barry's suit.
Cisco: That's version 1. Version 2.0 puts up a force field around S.T.A.R. Labs. Nothing gets in, nothing goes out - not even our comms. I built them just in case... just in case if the Flash ever went dark.
Iris: Barry said that Ramsey gave him a choice. Why-why would he chose him?
Killer: Maybe he decided eternal life was better than dying in Crisis.
Cisco: Ramsey's using Barry. And whatever he's having him do, he's got a plan.

The: [to Iris] Meet me on the roof. I'll give you a head start.

Cisco: I might've given you unlimited data, but I also gave you spotty reception.
Sherloque: Nice work.
Cisco: All right. The bees are in drone mode. So if we move very, very slowly...
[in a dramatic move, Sherloque easily removes his restraints]
Cisco: Man, what in the world?
Sherloque: What? I was trained in the art of escape by Thaddeus Brown from Earth-51.
Cisco: [indicating his still-cuffed wrists] Yeah, well, help me escape!
Sherloque: That's a good plan.

Barry: The explosives I found in all the parachute bombs had the same explosive composition as the bombs you set off twenty years ago.
James: That's impossible. I never told anyone that formula.
Barry: The signatures are an exact match.

Eobard: And Zolomon-- Love your work. Although slightly derivative, don't you think? Pretending to be the Flash's ally. Let's see. Who's playbook is that from?
[points at himself]
Hunter: Are you mocking me?
Eobard: Now, you're catching on. Good, Zoom.
Hunter: I'm the fastest man alive.
Eobard: No, you're a strung out, jumped-up Velocity 9 junkie. The fastest man alive... You're looking at him.
August: Oh, please. I'm the one, true god of speed.
Savitar: [appears] No, I am. Before I bring this dimension to its knees, I demand who brought us here.
Eddie: I did.

Cisco: Look, we have to face the facts, and I have to own up to whatever it is that I did.
Kamilla: You're gonna turn yourself in?
Cisco: I have to! I can't trust myself anymore.
Kamilla: Anymore? You stopped trusting yourself the moment Barry asked you to take over as team leader. I mean, you've built this elaborate device just so you wouldn't have to make any decisions for yourself.
Cisco: That's...
Kamilla: Let me make this decision for you. You are innocent.
Cisco: How can you be so sure?
Kamilla: Because I have faith in you. The real question is why don't you have any faith in yourself?
Cisco: Because Barry's gonna die! What if I can't keep people safe the way he does? I'm not the Flash.
Kamilla: Babe... Barry didn't choose you to be the Flash. He chose you to be you. All these doubts, they aren't you. They're just... noise in your head.

Barry: Deon just aged the harness a thousand years. How bad is it?
Harrison: Pretty bad.
Chester P. Runk: But not hopeless. See, I figured if we can find some way to... somehow create some sort of...
[seeing their looks]
Chester P. Runk: I-I was working on the collection disc when Deon showed up. I figured I better hide it just in case.
Barry: Chester, you're a lifesaver.
Chester P. Runk: As for the vest, I'm used to working with junk. I'll just need a bunch of replacement parts from my garage and she'll be up and running in no time. With a little help, that is.
Harrison: I'm with you.

Barry: You were dead. I saw your body.
Reverse: And yet... here I am in the flesh. How's that possible? The Negative Forces... brought me back because they were too weak without a fourth member of their merry band. Didn't I tell you that finding ways to kill you is my life's work? Here's what's really funny - killing your mother lead to the birth of the Flash, and killing Iris led to the rebirth of me. So I guess you could say your mother... and Iris... were good for something.

Henry: Do you think... Can you be all that you are becoming with me here?
Barry: You're the only family that I have left.
Henry: Well, that's not really truth. Don't you have another family in this room? They need your help, too, Barry. When you need me, I will be here, but right now Central City doesn't need you to be Henry Allen's son. It needs you to be The Flash. My kid, the superhero. I have to go. I need you to tell me that it's OK.

Caitlin: Sherloque, you happy to be going home soon?
Sherloque: Of course I'm happy to go back. I just feel that... somehow, there's more work to be done here.
Caitlin: I think he's, uh, talking about his lady friend. You know, I have a bit of experience with these, uh... long-distance relationships. I got one word for you.
Sherloque: Hmm.
Cisco: Holocube. These things work wonders.
Sherloque: Can I request that you stop speaking, possibly forever? I can deduce from your conversation when you came in that you have indeed tracked down Cicada's next target, but do need help facilitating the conversation between Cicada and the Flash, correct, yes? So, good. Come with me and I will give you the solution.
Caitlin: [surprised] When did you figure it out?
Sherloque: I'll miss you both very much. But you will miss me more.

Cop: Going old-school today, Flash?
The: Yeah. It's a little tighter than I remember, though.
Cop: [Gridlock gets back up] Hey, uh, you might want to do something.
Gridlock: Now it's my turn, Flash.

Dr. Harry Wells: A break-up cube is, uh... kind of what it sounds like. You know, you record a message for the person you want to... the person, and, uh, pick a music setting, and then there's a tissue that pops out if you need that. You know, a break-up cube.
Wally: Jesse's breaking up with me with a cube?
[Harry taps his nose, the non-verbal "yes" gesture]
Caitlin: Seems like a really convenient way to break somebody's heart.
Dr. Harry Wells: Exactly.
Wally: What did she say, in the message?
Dr. Harry Wells: You know, you heard. You... you're a great guy... I don't remember.
Wally: Don't you have total recall?
Dr. Harry Wells: Yeah. No. No. Don't. I did. I don't. I did, but I don't.

Reverse: [emerges out of the other Reverse-Flash's body] Thanks for the resurrection, Flash.

Chester P. Runk: How awesome is all this?
Barry: Oh, it's pretty awesome. Have you seen the Magnus Lab's Saturn Simulation?
Chester P. Runk: Oh, dude, I was in it.
Barry: You can get in it?

Caitlin: I'm okay. I took a beating but Killer Frost's ice healing kicked in. I'm going to be fine thanks to Dad.
Dr. Carla Tannhauser: Well, how-how it this possible?
Thomas: Well, I saw Icicle about to kill Caitlin, and I found the strength to break through.
Caitlin: Just like Killer Frost, Dad saved me.
Thomas: Well, you saved me too, Caitlin. I mean, thanks to you, I think I may have finally banished this monster.
[Cicada comes into the room and blasts The Flash from behind]
Cicada: That's good. That just leaves one more monster for me to kill.

Jefferson: I think we should be on the up and up with everybody. We got to tell 'em.
Oliver: We're going up against a bunch of aliens, and you want to tell people that their lives have been affected by time travel? One sci-fi problem at a time.

Dr. Harrison Wells: As the detonation ripped throughout Central City, a number of people were exposed to a wave of unquantifiable energy. One of those people... was you. You were in Central City ten months ago.
Bette: Uh... I had just returned from Afghanistan. I was there diffusing roadside bombs and... shrapnel ripped through me. I was flown back stateside, spent months at the base recuperating, and next thing I know, I became the thing that almost killed me. And Eiling's favorite new lab rat.
Caitlin: The dark matter must have combined with the bomb particulate inside your body.
Bette: I thought Eiling did this to me.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Eiling is not smart enough to create someone like you. Clever enough to see your value.
Bette: Do you know of any others who were changed?
Caitlin: There've been a few.
Cisco: But no one who looks like you.
[realizing what he just said]
Cisco: I'm sorry. That was inappropriate. Please don't leave.
Caitlin: I know how to perform a lobotomy.

[Reverse-Flash stabs Godspeed with a lightning saber]
The: Thawne! You could have killed him.
Eobard: Wasn't that the plan? Didn't you say you needed help dealing with a threat? Well, I dealt with it. And now... and now... it's just you and me, Flash. I've been waiting for this moment for a long, long time.
The: I'm only gonna say this once. Walk away while you still can.
Eobard: Allen. You are two weak to stop me. And I'm just getting started.
[Barry goes into Flashtime to stop Thawne's attack and tosses him to the pavement]
Eobard: What did you do? I created you. I taught you everything you know! Everything you are because of me! What did you do?
The: I got faster. Didn't you?
Eobard: No. But I will, Flash. Mark my words. I will.

Director: We need to construct a concrete and steel encasement around this entire facility in order to contain the radioactive material. Then we'll demolish S.T.A.R. Labs and move the debris to a nuclear waste site.
Allegra: You're gonna demolish it?
Director: The safety board makes the final call. But this looks pretty bad.
[to Barry]
Director: Now gather your people and say goodbye. You got five minutes to make like a banana and split.

Caitlin: If you're gonna kill me, just get it over with.
Deathstorm: Why would I do that? I traveled across the stars to transform you, so you could end my loneliness. Because tonight, you become my bride.

Cisco: I just picked up a frak-ton of background particle radiation.
Barry: Particles? Tachyons?
Cisco: Negative tachyons.
Joe: That's a thing?
Barry: I mean, negative tachyons can't generate lightning, right?
Cisco: Unless negative tachyons don't just offset positive ones like we thought. Maybe they actually siphon positive tachyons.
Joe: Stealing speed from the Speed Force like a parasite?
Barry: That's what Thawne taught her how to do. She's using negative tachyons to run and avoid our scanners.
Iris: Yeah, but why would Nora be trying to avoid us?
Joe: I don't know, but if she's stealing blueprints, this ain't gonna be her last stop.

Mark: It is okay if you're into me.
Frost: For the last time, I am not into you.
Mark: Then why don't you stop staring at my six-pack?

Joe: He called himself The Trickster too, just like you.
James: He is nothing like me, Detective. Nothing!
Joe: Do you know who he is?
James: Oh. If I did, I would tell you so you could find him, cut off his head, and throw it right in his face. No, this is obviously the work of a rank amateur at best, a mere pretender angling for my throne.

Caitlin: Dad! Please, I know you're in there. Don't do this.
Icicle: Do you think Thomas can hear you, Caity? Thomas hasn't been able to hear anything for a very long time.

Barry: Cecile, can you sense anything from this guy?
Cecile: Yeah, I tried. The only thing I'm picking up is the same fear that anyone suffering from memory loss would have. Whoever this person is, he seems like somebody who needs help.
Caitlin: I ran complete diagnostics on him. There's no sign of speed powers, organic or artificial. But take a look at this. His neurological scans show severe memory degradation. But his somatic memory cells are still intact, they're just inactive.
Barry: Can we access them?
Caitlin: I could give him a nano dose of neurogenic dark matter. It might reactivate the cells. But it's risky. And the effects would only be temporary.
Chester P. Runk: I think if there's a chance that what's inside his head could save lives, it's worth trying.
Barry: As long as he agrees. Let's get the shot ready.
Cecile: I'll ask if he's willing to help.

Barry: Oh, Lyla, this is, um... my daughter, Nora.
Lyla: Your daughter?
Barry: Yeah.
Nora: I'm from...
Lyla: The future, I'm guessing.
Nora: Weird, right?
Lyla: No weirder than waking up one day to find out that your son used to be your daughter.

Caitlin: Since the M.A.D. 2.0 isn't working, we need to try another tactic.
Cecile: [August inspects the Cosmic Treadmill] Does this remind you of anything?
August: This seems so familiar.
[reaching out to touch it, he's zapped by a small static electricity discharge]
August: Uh!
Caitlin: Are you all right?
August: Ever since I lost my memories, I've been trying to understand who I am and how I ended up like this. I figured I must have had a breakdown. Maybe somewhere there's a wife and kids wondering what the hell happened to their dad. I don't know. Am I ever gonna know who I am?

Barry: Let's get out of here.
Henry: I'll race you.
Barry: You will lose.

Caitlin: Oh, my god. What happened?
[Bette pulls up her shirt sleeve]
Caitlin: Why didn't you say that you were shot?
Bette: It just grazed me.
Caitlin: There's something in there.
Bette: [Caitlin pulls the "something" out with a pair of tweezers] A tracker.
Dr. Harrison Wells: [seeing Eiling and his soldiers on the surveillance cameras] Lock down the Pipeline. Get Bette out of here. I'll take care of Eiling.

Bashir: Wow, this is a nice office.
Allegra: What happened?
Bashir: Iris' time sickness, it... it spread to us. So we needed to tether ourselves to someone in this reality. I chose Cecile.
Cecile: Why?
Bashir: Because of your boundless potential. I opened the floodgates of your mind. That's how you were able to absorb the gifts of others.
Queen: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on. Wait, wait, wait. So, you're the guy who gave her all of our powers?
Bashir: Mm.
Rosalind: [in a sarcastic tone] Thanks.
Bashir: You're... welcome?

Sherloque: Nothing?
Caitlin: Nope, I still cannot figure out how to reset his cells back to normal.
Cisco: He's still Humpty Dumpty'd, huh?
Caitlin: Yep.
Cisco: He hasn't been this much of a mess since he first got his powers.
Sherloque: Since... And what did you do to help him then?
Caitlin: We introduced a stabilizing enzyme that reset his body back its original form using vulcanization and muscle memory.
Sherloque: Muscle memory. Well then it appears all that we need to do is wake him up.
Caitlin: How would you suggest we do that?
Sherloque: Simple. We blast him.
[mimicking Cisco's vibe blast]
Cisco: We blast him?
Sherloque: If you blast him, the vibrational jolt, it will be more than enough to kick-start his consciousness. I'm sure of it.
Cisco: Can't we just play some Gaga and hope he wakes up?
Sherloque: Gaga is not the solution to everything. You have to blast him. Allez, young Ralph Macchio, please.

Reverse: Guys, Thawne is tricking you. I came here from 2021.
Iris: Save it, Allen. We're not falling for your mind games this time.
The: Put him down.

Eva: Are you real? No, of course you're not. That's it. That's it. I've finally lost it.
Iris: It's okay. I-I'm real.
Eva: [laughing in relief, she hugs her] Oh, my... I... Oh, I-I... I can't believe I'm talking to another person. It's been so long.
Iris: Wait, I know you... you and your husband, Joseph Carver, you founded McCulloch Technologies. You're Eva McCulloch. But you're supposed to be dead.
Eva: No. Not dead. Just... trapped. Now so are you.

Sherloque: [about the residual particle catcher] That contraption is not going to work.

Allegra: Okay, this is the last of your... whatever this stuff is. What's this thing?
Chester P. Runk: Uh, nothing. Yeah, no, it's just a-a project... for Frost. That's all.
Allegra: Uh-huh. Chuck, you know how we've been spending more time together lately?
Chester P. Runk: Oh, yeah, our weekend D&D sessions are, like, my new favorite thing. Why?
Allegra: Well... and I can't believe I'm saying this, but the way you just said "nothing"... is exactly how you sounded right before the raid on Shavak's Tomb. And we all knew you were bluffing then, too.
Chester P. Runk: Yeah, okay. Uh... Frost asked me to build... a weapon. To hurt Despero.
Allegra: But you're...
Chester P. Runk: A pacifist. Yeah, I know.
Allegra: How do you feel about doing this?
Chester P. Runk: Allegra... you know I still remember the exact moment that I decided to be a pacifist? I was ten. And I had just seen Marvin the Martian's ray gun on Saturday morning cartoons. So I decided to make one of my own. When I demoed it for my best friend, it malfunctioned. And, well... I burned his parents' house down. Him and his family barely made it out alive. After that... I made a vow. No more weapons, no matter what. So by going back on that vow now... I feel like by building this, I'm not just gonna hurt Despero. I'm gonna hurt myself, too.
Allegra: Look, I... I know you wanna do right by Barry and by the team. But you can't do that if you don't do right by yourself. It's not your job to make weapons. It's to... find a way to protect Barry and stay true to yourself.

Joe: Doctor.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Detective. Are you here to make more accusations?
Joe: Here to make amends. I looked up Tess Morgan. I'm sorry for your loss. You two were research partners in Maryland?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Yes, we were. We were... married to the work as much as to each other. After the car accident... I could not go back to the work. Could not go back to our lab.
Joe: So you moved here.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Where no one knew me. Where no one could remind me of what I had lost, and, um... I - I found it difficult, starting over, and rebuilding, and what took me fourteen years, Tess could have done in four. Believe me, she - she... At the time of Nora Allen's murder, the Particle Accelerator that I would eventually create was but a notion, much less a reality, and so whomever or whatever is responsible for her death, it did not originate from me or from my work.
Joe: I'm sorry I doubted you, but I hope I can still count on your help.
Dr. Harrison Wells: You don't give up, do you?
Joe: Nope. Not till I get my man. I owe that to Barry and to Henry.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Barry is lucky to have you on his side, Joe.

Sue: Will you relax? We're safe here. John's not stupid. Killing me in a public place? Uh-uh, it's not gonna happen.
Ralph: I'm sorry, I believe he blew up an apartment to get to you.
Sue: That building was scheduled for demolition next month. But he does know that someone's after him now. It'll make him harder to get to. Thanks to you.
Ralph: [she pays for her drink and stands to leave] Where are you going?
Sue: Sorry, Slick. I can't partner up with someone who doesn't think I can pull my own weight.

Kamilla: Why is it every time I come to visit there's always a crisis?
Cisco: Comes with the meta-territory. 750 mph. He's getting faster.
Kamilla: Who is this guy?
Cisco: An old family friend. His name's Godspeed and he's from the future. He's like a fake speedster.
[the Flash runs into action and gains on Godspeed]
Kamilla: What's that?
Cisco: The real deal.
Kamilla: Kick his butt, Barry!
The: Done and doner.

Speed: [after his powers glitch] Barry, what did you do? We've lost everything.
Barry: What did I do? I didn't lose the data that was supposed to clear Frost. You did, by being here.
Speed: I was only trying to help.
Barry: Okay, I didn't ask for any.
Chester P. Runk: Guys, maybe we should take five?
Speed: Barry, you helped me be reborn, and now you're keeping me safe. Of course I want to help you.
Barry: I keep telling you, I didn't ask for help. Look, you chose me to be the hero. So let me be the hero.

Mayor: Who are you?
James: How quickly they forget. James Jesse, your honor.
[removing his disguise and mussing up his hair with a maniacal cackle]
James: AKA the Trickster. And I'm here to relieve you fine people from all your money. Because we know if you're in this room, oh, ho, ho... you've got loads of it.
[Axel pulls out an assault rifle]
Mayor: What makes you think that anyone in this room would give you a cent?
James: Because... that champagne they just slurped down like so much fruit punch? I added a little something special to it. Trimethylmercury-32. Poison.
[he cackles again]
James: Without the antidote, you'll begin to feel the effects in about, oh, um...
Axel: One hour!
James: One hour.
[a guest stumbles forward, foaming at the mouth]
James: I remember you. You got to the party about an hour early. I offered you the very first glass of champagne.
[he cackles as the man collapses]
James: An hour is plenty of time for all of you to call your bankers and transfer everything you have to the account number on the bottom of your glass. Once my young friend and I are rich, you'll get the antidote. If any of you decide to call 911 instead, well...
[he holds up a pistol]
James: ...then we switch to lead poisoning.

Barry: You got your suit?
Jay: Sure. Well, except my helmet.
Dr. Martin Stein: Helmet?
Cisco: Silver-kettle helmet? Gold wings?
Jay: Don't tell me you guys found it.

Nora: I don't know what's crazier, how big this guy is or the number of incised wounds on his body.
Barry: Well, and the depressed skull fracture points to impact with hardened surface, but cause of death is definitely repeated stabbings.
Nora: Yeah. Looks like someone was really angry.
Barry: Look at these wounds. Doesn't it look like they have the same depth and diameter as the ones on Gridlock's body?
Nora: Yeah, and like Block's and Raelene Sharp's.

Supergirl: How did you get the nickname "Heat Wave"?
Mick: Well, I burned my family alive, and I like to light things on fire.
Supergirl: Aah. Well, that's a colorful backstory.
Mick: Well, my shrink thinks so.

Khione: I see. You're a daffodil.
Allegra: A what?
Khione: A daffodil. A daffodil seed doesn't want to be hurt either, so it clings to the stem, when really, in order for it to grow, it should let go so it can be carried by the wind and blossom into a flower.

Barry: Guys? I have a problem.
Cisco: We all do when guys like him exist.
Caitlin: [looking at Eddie] Yeah, he's so hot. Uh, I mean, genetically speaking. Because I'm a geneticist, of course. Oh, my God, do I sound like Felicity?

Lisa: I need your help.
Cisco: In your dreams, Sister Cold. You know I could call The Flash. He'd be here in like two seconds - probably one.

Harry: He's right. Ramon, he had a second chance with Allegra. It's what I've been trying to tell you. You think you're so smart.
Harrison: [about to say something] And he's gone. Well, that's gonna take some getting used to.

Iris: How do we know which memories weren't real?
Barry: [thinking] Of course. Iris, it's the Hall of Villains. You and Nora.
Iris: Barry, I still dampen Nora's power. She still grows up hating me. This is my future.
Barry: No, no, it's not. It's just a memory, one warped from the perspective of a sad, angry, little kid that ran away from home. Don't you get it? That person that we saw in there, the bad mom that Nora told us about, she doesn't even exist in any timeline. I told you you had to be different in the future, but I was wrong. You... you don't have to change who you are. You don't even have to change the name of your newspaper. I know any future with you in it is gonna be a good one. You just gotta believe that, too.

Cisco: So you thought you could leave to another Earth without paying us back?
Sherloque: Worked on my fourth wife and my sixth. Same woman.

Sherloque: Madames et monsieurs, may I present to you La machine à Mémoire, or as they say in Amérique, you know...
Iris: The Memory Machine.
Sherloque: Oui, Iris. Memory Machine. Many times I have enterted into people's minds using this very technology. From the unfortunate comatose victims of the Summerholt Institute to, yes, Jervis Tetch himself, the Terrible Mad Hatter Killer from Earth-221.
Cisco: I come back from Tannhauser for one second, just borrowing a splicer for the meta cure and what do I find? This, this...
Sherloque: Machine à Mémoire.
Cisco: Whatever. How did you even get this here from Earth-221?
Sherloque: Well, I used the Forerunner Multiversal Delivery Service. You don't use it? You don't have a gold card like me? Maybe I'll get you a discount.

Barry: Don't run.

Gideon: Sequence complete. However, Team Flash date on interval servers will compromise your identity if discovered. Standing by for emergency data wipe.
Barry: Gideon, is there any other way?
Gideon: No, Barry Allen. All information within S.T.A.R. Labs must be erased in order to assure your safety. This includes myself. This is the best option.
Barry: I'm so sorry, Gideon.
Gideon: It has been an honor working with you, Barry Allen. Farewell.

Caitlin: You okay?
Ralph: [showing his burned hand] Nothing a gallon of aloe won't fix.

Joe: So when were you planning on telling me you took down Mardon?
Barry: I-I just haven't a chance yet.
Joe: You got sidetracked, you mean?
Barry: No, Joe, you can't be mad.
Joe: I'm not mad. But I am curious. I mean, you were acting so weird at the crime scene.
Barry: I always act weird.
Joe: Okay. Weirder.

Killer: Hello, Stretch.
Ralph: They call me a man who elongates now.
Killer: Hm, they should call you pathetic.

Barry: Nora... made sure that we didn't lose everything tonight.
Ralph: She saved every meta in the city.
Caitlin: And she gave Grace a new future.
Sherloque: Gave all of us, right? Especially me. Without Nora, I never would've met the love of my life, Renee.
Cisco: And you wouldn't have stopped your 38th Cicada. Or your 39th.
Sherloque: Right. It's been quite a journey.
[shakes Barry's hand]
Sherloque: Pleasure. An honor, Flash.
Barry: We never could've solved this mystery without you.
Sherloque: Well, don't be too sure. You already have a master detective in your midst. Congratulations, Adult Giraffe.
Ralph: Well done, Sherloque.
Sherloque: Sherlock. Well, all right then. Without further ado.
[opens portal to his Earth]
Sherloque: Mes amis. Good luck, Team Flash.

Killer: I'm sorry. Crisis is over, we beat the bad guy, and you're still worried because...
Cisco: Because... an infinite number of Earths experienced a cosmic heat death from which only one Earth was rebuilt.
Killer: Mm-hmm.
Cisco: So now not only do Superman, Supergirl, and Black Lightning live here, but not our timeline has been rewritten so that they've always lived here,
[reveals he's wearing a Superman t-shirt]
Cisco: and I don't remember owning this shirt.
Killer: Great shirt. Besides, isn't that a good thing? We're all one big, happy family now?
Cisco: No. No! No, it is not. Not when these guys are crashing the reunion.
[puts down a binder of supervillains]
Cisco: Not a single one of our doppelgangers survived to make it to Earth Prime, as far as I can tell, but we did manage to pick up a butt-ton of bad guys and aliens and more metas, and you know the best part? The best part is a bunch of our old villains are back, with fresh paint jobs!
Killer: When did you have time to do all this?
Cisco: Edencorp, The Top, Rainbow Raider. Our Earth has more threats than ever, and we don't even know where they're coming from.

Iris: He's at the DOD site. Look.
Barry: That building's seven below?
Sherloque: Look at the temperature. Look at it drop.
Cisco: He initiated the negative array but didn't seal it. The room is -7, but the array is -100.
Ralph: That thing's so freaking cold, it's freezing the whole building.
Caitlin: Wait, at this rate, in five minutes, the temperature will be -460 degrees, AKA absolute zero. At which point, he can inject himself with my serum.
Nora: And turn himself into a full-on icicle.
Cisco: Icicle, that's... not the time.
Caitlin: We gotta go.
Cisco: Let's do it.
Caitlin: Hey, what... what about your hands?
Cisco: You're my friend, my family. I'm going.

Joe: [to Barry] You're putting a whole lot of faith in the man wearing the face of your mother's killer.

XS: No Weather Witch in sight.
Caitlin: Okay, Singh cleared the perimeter, so it's free of civilians.
Cisco: And our satellites are on weather watch for our Weather Witch. Nothing yet.
Sherloque: What? I wouldn't say nothing. My data leaves me to conclude that there is a artifically-created pressure system of uncertain origin heading rapidiment toward the downtown core.
Cisco: Listen, Galileo, you can lick your finger and stick it in the wind all you want. Why don't you leave the actual calculations to actual compu...
[his computer beeps]
Cisco: Oh, for Christ's sake.
Sherloque: And your exasperation leads me also to conclude that you have realized, although late, that once again I'm right.

Cisco: [walks into his workshop and finds everything packed up in boxes, reads a note] "Happy to help. Barry." So I guess that's done.
Caitlin: Wow. That was fast.
Cisco: Yeah, well, it helps when your best friend's The Flash, doesn't it?
Caitlin: Sure does.
Cisco: Since it's just us... How you holding up? You sure you're doing okay with everything that's happening? You know, me leaving?
Caitlin: Oh, of course. I mean, come on. A.R.G.U.S. has not one, but three bionic neural integrators. You are movin' up, my friend.
Cisco: Yeah, but fancy new toys aside, if you wanna talk about anything...
Caitlin: Oh, there is something that I wanted to say.
Cisco: I knew it. What is it? Lay it on me.
Caitlin: "You suck forever. But I love you anyway." It's from Frost. She's stuck up at Mom's lab. She's sorry she couldn't say goodbye.
Cisco: Frost, she kills me. She really does.
Caitlin: Yeah, me too.
Cisco: Do you remember how I got stuck in the cryo-vault my first day?
Caitlin: You would've hacked your way out of there. We all knew you were a genius from day one.

The: Captain Boomerang, right? Didn't we do this already?
Captain: Nope, and since you know who I am, I'm sure you're aware that I'm your worst nightmare.
The: You said the same thing yesterday.
Captain: Dumbass, we just met. Just now. Let's skip to the fighting part so I can carve that stupid look off your face.

Spartan: [seeing Ramsey turn into Bloodwork] That's one ugly son of a bitch.

Vandal: You tried those arrows once before, remember? They didn't quite finish the job, now, did they?
Green: I'm not gonna make that mistake again.
The: You're gonna leave Kendra alone.
Vandal: I can't do that. While my destiny is to live forever, Chay-Ara's is to die, as is yours now.

Cisco: The program completed. It should have worked. Hey, Harry. Harry?
Dr. Harry Wells: Don't worry. You have been and will always be... my friend.
Cisco: Khan.
Cisco: Kill them.
[Cisco and Harry embrace in a hug]
Cisco: Oh, my God.
Iris: "Star Wars."
[Barry shakes his head "no"]

Barry: [downing a series of alcohol shots in quick succession] I can't feel anything.
Cisco: Yeah, that's usually what happens when you drink too much.
Barry: No, the alcohol is not affecting me. I mean, I literally feel nothing.
Caitlin: It's your hypermetabolism. I need a sample.
Cisco: I'll get more shots.

Ralph: How'd you get in here, Earl?
Earl: Door was unlocked.
Ralph: No, it wasn't.
Earl: It was after I picked it.

Chester P. Runk: You all right, dude?
Cisco: Who are you? Where am I? Did you take my headgear?
Chester P. Runk: Dude, it's me. Chester.
Cisco: No. No, I don't know you. Stranger danger.
Chester P. Runk: Stranger danger? Uh. Cisco, how old are you?
Cisco: I'm seven, you predator.
Chester P. Runk: Because you still think it's 1998. Oh, no.

Prisoner: We are on the same side, you and I. We have the same goal: stop one man from gaining a power so great, it would destroy us all. So join us, Flash. And by doing so, you can end this war. Save your city, save your family.
Barry: If I do help... what happens to August Heart once we find him?
Prisoner: We kill him. Until he is dead, our freedom will be compromised.
Barry: I won't kill. Not even an enemy.
Prisoner: Then know this: anyone who stands in our way will die with him.

Cisco: I think we found the next target for our thirty-something, meta-human, not-a-Ninja-Turtle.
Caitlin: How long did it take you to come up with that one?
Cisco: It just came out of my mouth - did you see that? That was amazing.

Joe: So, Bare... You never made your own tidal wave before.
Barry: No, I haven't.
Caitlin: [to Iris] You go, girl.

Caitlin: Cisco, why can't you just help him?
Cisco: Why am I the only one who think putting a rageoholic and dark matter is a bad idea?
Caitlin: He's trying to stop DeVoe. That's not a bad idea.
Cisco: He's trying to match his intellect with a mad man whose innovations are warping his brain. Have you not seen "Spider-Man 2?"
Caitlin: No.
Cisco: How can you live with yourself?

Nora: Okay, I thought something big was supposed to be going on down here.
Iris: Oh, I don't know. It's pretty big.
Barry: Feast your eyes on the newest addition to the Jitters menu.
[Nora gasps excitedly]
Iris: The XS-presso.
Nora: [squeaking] I got my own drink!
Iris: It's pretty schway, right?
Barry: Think of what could be next. An XS action figure? XS Day?
Nora: Guys, you are embarrassing me.

Cutter: There you are!
Barry: [surprised to see him] Merlyn.
Kara: Who?
Cutter: Who?
Barry: Malcolm Merlyn. Former head of the League of Assassins.
Kara: The what of the what?

Barry: What are you looking for?
Dr. Harry Wells: I'm looking for... I'm looking for anything to help me find my daughter, all right? Just...
[clattering his plasma gun around]
Dr. Harry Wells: I don't have my daughter. You don't have your speed. Zoom has Caitlin, and this whole thing... this whole thing is going to hell in a handbasket.
Barry: [seeing he's about to smash the transmitter] No, wait! Wait, wait. Her frequency.
Dr. Harry Wells: What?
Barry: Jesse's frequency. People from Earth-2 vibrate at a different frequency. Maybe you can track her that way.
Dr. Harry Wells: [forcefully handing back the transmitter as he leaves] Figure out a way to find Snow.

Becky: Using my powers just hurt those around me. My good luck just jinxed everyone else. You know, you seem to really care about people - not like the type of person who'd take someone's life.
Barry: I didn't kill that teacher. I wouldn't take a life. You know, not every meta uses their powers to hurt people. Some use to help others, to protect people. Our powers don't decide who we are. We do.

Henry: Hey, slugger.
Barry: You've been calling me that since I was eleven. Funny thing is, I finally got into a fight today.
Henry: You just got out of a coma. I'm not sure you should be picking fights. Hey... did you win?
Barry: Yeah, I did.

Cisco: I get that, wanting to be with the person you love. If Kamilla and I are lucky enough to share half of what you and Tess have...
Harrison: You will.
Cisco: This is weird.
Harrison: Yeah, we just met.
Cisco: Right? It's like I barely even know you.
Harrison: We barely know each other.
Cisco: I mean, you're nothing like him.
Harrison: Like who? Oh, the Harrison Wells you used to know.
Cisco: Or the man I thought was Harrison Wells. Of course, he turned out to be a...
Cisco: A jerk?
Cisco: Yeah.
Harrison: Yeah.
Cisco: How do you miss someone you barely even know?
[they shake hands]

Harrison: Got lost, didn't you?
Allegra: What? No.
Harrison: No?
Allegra: Maybe.

Dr. Harry Wells: Things are a little complicated on Earth-2.
Cisco: Oh. Everything okay with Jesse?
Dr. Harry Wells: Yes. I mean, yes. If you must know, I spent the summer assembling a support staff for her, so...
Cisco: Oh, like a Team Quick?
Dr. Harry Wells: No.
Cisco: Team Jesse.
Dr. Harry Wells: No.
Cisco: Jesse and the Quicksters.
Dr. Harry Wells: They're not called that.
Cisco: Well, they should be. That sounds like an awesome team.

Goldface: Wakey, wakey, ladies and gents in blue. Folks call me Goldface. That's 'cause if it's made of gold, it's mine to control, from your dental fillings to the 0.35 grams of gold in your cell phones. Don't even bother trying to phone a friend, 'cause we knocked out the nearest cell phone tower. But if anyone does come calling...
[two of his henchmen take off their coats, revealing police officer uniforms underneath]
Goldface: ...they'll find a couple of Central City's finest outside telling them there's a gas leak.
Barry: [Kramer gets to her feet] What are you doing? What are you... hey.
Kristen: Goldface, this is my precinct. You have a problem, you take it up with me. Let my officers go.
Goldface: Ah... if it isn't the famous Kristen Kramer. Loved you on the "Citizentopia" podcast. Very inspiring.
Kristen: Thanks.
Goldface: Now, Captain, I'm guessing you wanna play hero. Let me let my man Carver here show you what happens if anyone gets out of line.
[he whistles, and Carver rolls a mannequin into view with a meta-dampening cuff on its wrist]
Goldface: Now, you may all have noticed that you're sporting a new piece of jewelry. Well, since Captain Mimic here outed herself as a meta, I figured she may not be the only one of you. But these bracelets, they don't just dampen powers. They also do this.
[pressing a button on his belt, the cuff explodes]
Goldface: You feeling me now, Captain?

Barry: What is that?
Harrison: I think that is an act of creation.
Barry: But I have the particles. Shouldn't the forces be dying?
Harrison: Perhaps they are. Somewhere. In time, but right here? Right now? They're being born.

Speed: It's okay, Barry. I'm here. I'm sorry it took me so long to find you. Ramsey's infection is stronger than anything we've ever faced, and it's only getting stronger.
Barry: I think I know why.
Speed: You feel doubt.
Barry: I do.
Speed: You've answered our call before. It's always been difficult. What's changed?
Barry: I've led more. I've gotten married, seen a future where I'll have a daughter who's the best of me and Iris combined. Most of my life has been driven by my past, but... but now, I... It finally feels like I'm living for myself. I don't wanna leave my family and my friends. I don't want to die. I know that's selfish. I'm sorry I let you down.
Speed: Barry. No person is immune to fear and doubt... No matter how brave... that's what makes you human, Barry. But the courage to move forward, even in the face of overwhelming odds, that's what makes you a hero. That's what makes you the Flash.
Barry: Thank you. I needed to hear that.

Barry: You got what you want, Zolomon.
Hunter: [noticing Nora] And who is this?
[Barry subtly, but instinctively, stands in front of her protectively]
Hunter: Another speedster.

The: Hey, Turtle. So you want to know my new definition of irony? Now you... are our most prized possession.

Allegra: [Cecile moves the coffee with her mind] Cecile, did you do that?
Cecile: Uh... yeah? But, okay, all I did was think I really wish I had the right coffee, and then I kind of thought in my head, and then all of sudden, it was...
Chester P. Runk: Oh, the force is strong with this one.
Cecile: Well, that's new.

Joe: Fine, just tell us what you want.
Robber: I want you to back off, or I will detonate this thing.
Joe: Okay, calm down, nobody needs to get hurt today.
Robber: You just follow instructions, and everybody here gets to live to see the sunshine tomorrow. All right? And I'd better not see the Flash, either.

Cisco: Have we already had this conversation?
Barry: Kind of.
Dr. Harry Wells: What does that mean?
Barry: Ah... All right, so the last time Mardon attacked, he, um, generated a tidal wave that destroyed all of Central City.
Dr. Harry Wells: So why are you not all sleeping with the fishes?
Cisco: Earth-2 has "The Godfather?"
Dr. Harry Wells: Every Earth has "The Godfather," Vito.

Bart: Is today the day that Grandpa Joe and Grammy Cecile start dating?
Nora: No. I mean, I don't think that it is.
Bart: Okay, good, 'cause stopping Grandpa Joe from getting shot is enough fixing for one day.

Iris: Look, Nora, I'm glad I have you. Your last story did so well that I would like you to write a follow-up piece.
Nora: Yeah, sure. When's the deadline?
Iris: Uh, if you get something to me...
[they lose connection as Iris' picture disappears]
Nora: Mom, Mom?
Bart: Yeah, that looked like more than just bad service.
Iris: [reappearing in the apartment, looking shocked] Bart? Nora, is that really you?
Bart: Uh, sis, is it just me or does Mom look really young?
Nora: Oh, shrap.

Ralph: Nora, Cisco hasn't left for his date yet, has he?
Nora: Uh, I don't think so.
Ralph: Great, I get another chance at this.

Captain: This is impossible. Eddie?
Eddie: I shot myself with this bullet. I need to find out what happened. I need to know how I'm alive.
Captain: Listen. I believe you. But this city is a lightning rod for insanity. You could be a clone or a cyborg. We need to get you to a hospital and get you checked out.
Eddie: No. I need to find the Flash. He'll know what's going on.
Captain: No, listen. We can't jump to conclusions without investigating. If you're really Eddie, then you're a detective, and you know this.
Eddie: I am Eddie Thawne! I'm alive, and I need to know why!
[a black hole opens above Eddie and Daisy]
Captain: What the hell?
[she gets sucked up into the black hole]
Eddie: KORBER!

Joan: Barry. You're with us. William Knox. I've discovered that poetry can stimulate collapsed neural pathways.
Barry: Lady Gaga usually works for me.

Killer: Next time you want to talk, come yourself. Don't send your eye-hole to attack me.
Amunet: Did you start a fight? Honestly, Norvock. That's why you're my third favorite henchman. I mean, what do I always say?
Killer: Never start a fight you can't finish.

Clarissa: Well, after a year apart, I'm not letting him out of my sight. S.T.A.R. Labs did quite a few tests on Martin, didn't they - and they said he was fine?
Barry: Yeah. Why? Is something wrong?
Clarissa: He just seems a little different is all.
Barry: Different how?
Clarissa: He's been asking for pizza. Martin despises pizza.

Jay: All right, old man. Time to get in on the action.
[a burst of white lightning throws him across the room]
Jay: [surrounded by Godspeed clones] What the hell do you want?
Prisoner: [grabbing him] You, Jay Garrick. We want you.

Ralph: [seeing Barry and Nora return] Did you even go?
Cisco: I told you time travel was weird.

Sherloque: [wearing a respirator like Cicada's] I have frightened you, Dr. Snow.
Caitlin: I assume you came here for some other reason than murdering me?

Cisco: If I looked at the DNA of two siblings, one who became a meta and one who didn't, I would have a close enough genetic match to isolate the part of the genome that controls meta-genes. I'm sorry, did I just say that out loud?

Catlin: You can't just come in here and kick us out of our own offices.
[Hackshaw hands her a piece of paper]
Catlin: Public Safety Act?
Director: Passed four years ago after the meta fallout nearly took out the city. Means we can do whatever we have to do for the greater good. Post teams at every entrance. No one gets in without clearance.
Barry: [getting off the elevator] Excuse me, I'm Barry Allen. I own this facility.
Director: Mr. Allen, we've detected dangerous levels of radiation within your facility. This lab's a day away from a meltdown.
Allegra: That's impossible. We would've noticed if things were that bad.
Chester P. Runk: Uh, maybe not. I just checked out the safety logs. Our radiation scanners haven't updated in over a week. Doesn't make... any sense.
Barry: [as he opens a wall panel, sparks fly] What happened?
Chester P. Runk: This is part of our early detection array that monitors radiation levels inside the place, but it's corroded. Hasn't been functioning for a while. Sensors in the subterranean power core currently read over 1,000 rads.
Director: Consider yourselves lucky. Another day, you'd all be in ICU.

Clifford: Why such turmoil in your mind, Mr. Allen? Allow me to ease your pain.

Barry: Yeah, I may be the one in the suit doing all the running... but when I'm out there helping people, making a difference... you're all out there with me. Finally realized something: we were all struck by that lightning.

Deon: Sorry for almost killing you.
Bashir: I tell you what, you help us survive, we'll forgive you. Maybe.

Barry: Look, last night, on my way to the morgue, I saw something.
Dr. Harrison Wells: What'd you see?
Barry: I was running and I turned and I saw myself - or, I don't know, another Flash running beside me.
Dr. Harrison Wells: Interesting.
Barry: Yeah. W-w-what do you think it was?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Could be an optical illusion, a mirroring effect caused by wind sheer and light, a speed mirage, if you will.
Barry: It didn't seem like that. It was... He seemed real.
Dr. Harrison Wells: I'll tell you what. Let's focus on finding Mardon, and once we safely contain him in The Pipeline, we'll investigate this.

Mia: What did Thawne mean when he said, "save me"? Save him from what?
Barry: You see how he's fading in and out? Same thing happened to me in his Reverse-Flashpoint. He's being erased. Once the process is complete, he'll die.
Cecile: So when you removed Thawne's changes, the timeline decided to remove him, too.
Barry: Yeah.
Iris: Okay, but when Thawne died, he came back somehow after Eddie. I mean, could that happen again?
Barry: No, this is different. When I reset the timeline, I used Damien's Time Stone. It eliminated all possible time variables, restoring a single, permanent timeline again. This one.
Caitlin: So if he dies this time...
Chester P. Runk: It's game over for good.
Caitlin: Okay. I need to call Frost. If we're gonna decide what to do about Thawne, we need the whole team here.
Mia: Wait a minute. You're not actually considering saving him, are you?
Iris: Mia, we know that Thawne is bad, but we still need to talk this through before we make any decisions.
Mia: Fine. If that's how you guys do things. But you're making a big mistake.

Iris: Looks like someone tossed this place.
Barry: Yeah. Probably the same guys that hung Dibny off the roof.
Iris: Why do you think?
Barry: I dunno. Guy like that probably has a long list of people that wanna toss him off rooftops.

Wally: Oh, man, that was so dope. How do you stay so calm? You're like scary calm in the middle of a fight.
Barry: It's just experience, Wally. That's why it's important to show me for a while, and try to learn everything I know.
Wally: And then I get to kick some ass.
Cisco: Let me give you some advice, Wally. Being a superhero's not about kicking ass. Well... nope, actually that's a straight-up lie. There's a lot of ass-kicking involved.

Joan: Maybe we should renew our vows.
Jay: Oh, I'd marry you again in a heartbeat.

Joe: What are you looking for, Cisco?
Cisco: You ever seen "Twin Peaks"? Of course not. Why do I ask? This is an old black masking trick they used for the Man from Another Place, where they record his audio backwards and then play it forwards.
Joe: Like the Ozzy Osbourne records.

Barry: 52 times?
Nora: 53, if you include now.
Barry: That's... a lot.
Nora: What was I supposed to do, let one of them die?
Barry: The thing is, Nora, there are consequences to time travel.
Nora: Oh, I know.
Barry: No, you don't. Not like I do. Let me show you something. Imagine this coffee cup is the space/time continuum.
[as he vibrates the mug, a piece breaks off]
Barry: Whenever you go back in time, it breaks. Now, you can try and reset the timeline, try and fix it, but no matter how hard you try, it's never gonna be exactly how it was. It seems like things worked out this time, but that's not always gonna be true, and it's impossible to know how these changes are gonna unfold; the ripples you'll cause, whose life you're gonna affect. No one can do that.
Nora: No one?
Barry: No one. We're not gods, Nora. We've just been given extraordinary abilities.

Allegra: Uh, what?
Cisco: Yeah, repeat that. For Allegra.
Barry: All right, I'm sorry. Um... let me show you.
[drawing on a glassboard in superspeed]
Barry: Ramsey's unique cells created a polar covalent bond with the molecules in Eva's mirror portal. That's why she needed his blood.
Cisco: Right, it-it formed, like, uh, a bio-friendly skin on the interdimensional barrier.
Allegra: So, we need Ramsey's blood. We knew that.
Barry: No, we don't need it. His blood would have bonded with the electronegative particles and become dark matter photons. Those particles wouldn't just stay on the mirror portal.
Cisco: No, they wouldn't. They'd attach themselves to Eva. Those photons are still on her. If we could collect them, we could open our portal. But it would take, like, years to develop a prototype that could do that.
Barry: [whooshing away and coming back with another board] Not if we integrate the neural net in the Thinker's chair, synched to a nanite bridge, fed into the Tachyon Enhancer's non-reductive loop.
Cisco: N-No, but wait, wouldn't... well... well, yeah, I-I guess... I guess that could work.
Allegra: But isn't Eva still holed up behind McCulloch Tech's forcefield? We'll never get close to her.
[seeing Barry's look]
Allegra: You're gonna bring out another board?
Barry: [whooshing away and returning with a third board] Factoring in geographical analytics, concealment probability, these are the remaining Black Hole stash houses. There's a 97.6% chance Eva's hitting this one next.
Cisco: [a little taken aback] Right. Right. So that's where we go. And that's what we do. Just wish I could have seen it earlier.
Barry: This isn't on you. We wouldn't be in this mess if I'd seen through Iris' mirror duplicate sooner. Eva's not the first to use my emotions against me. Let's make sure she's the last.

Ralph: I shouldn't have been so harsh.
Killer: It's okay. You were right. I have a long way to go.
Ralph: No, you don't.
Killer: [he offers what looks like a graduate's diploma] A "Dib-ploma"?
Ralph: Congratulations on graduating life-coach school.
Killer: Ralph, this is ridiculous.
Ralph: You know what's ridiculous? You thinking that you're not as important as Caitlin. And being intimidated by a parent, that... that's normal. Frost, I was ten when my dad walked out on Mom and me. You don't think a day goes by where I'm not... absolutely terrified that he's gonna show up at my front door?
Killer: He walked out on you guys. He's a jerk.
Ralph: Yeah. And a part of me still wants to see him.
Killer: I guess I'm afraid Carla might actually want to get to know me, and then... she'll see me for who I really am.
Ralph: That is the ironic part to me. 'Cause, Frosty, you are one awesome human being. You were just afraid that Carla was gonna reject you, so you rejected her first.
Killer: [taking the Dib-ploma] Not anymore.
Ralph: And that is why you're ready to graduate. Damn, I really am one hell of a life coach.
Killer: Yeah, you are.

Iris: You need to throw a lightning bolt.
The: At what?
Iris: Yourself.
Joe: You want him to do what?
Iris: It might short the suit out, give him back control.
Cisco: Or it might set off the self-destruct early.
Caitlin: Or it might stop his heart.
Iris: Barry... Barry, you need to listen to me, okay? We can do this.
The: Okay. No, I trust you, Iris.
Iris: Then run, Barry. Run.

Mark: There's a new meta in town. He's got a thing for experimental tech. Keeps it all at the old Wieringo complex off Route 119. If he's the guy, you're gonna find him there.
Frost: What's that gonna cost me?
Mark: How about a second visit? Just ask for Mark.

Harrison: Connecting Fusion Sphere. Fusion Sphere connected. Activate.
Chester P. Runk: Uh... activated.
Harrison: Oh, it's working. Now we just have to find a fuel source to put in it.
Chester P. Runk: And then we can power the artificial Speed Force.
Harrison: Exactly.
Chester P. Runk: [yawning] Hey, uh...
Harrison: What?
Chester P. Runk: One of the sphere plates doesn't look fully magnetized.
Barry: [speeding in and stopping him] Whoa! You can't touch that. If you touch the Fusion Sphere while it's activated...
Harrison: The Fusion Sphere thinks you're the fuel source.
Barry: Yes.
Chester P. Runk: And fuse my atoms, which would lead to a complete molecular degeneration. Sorry. I'm just trying to get your speed back.
Barry: Don't hurt yourself trying to do it. I'd never want you to do that.

Cisco: So, the reason you didn't have your powers is because there was a dampener in the mask. You see?
Jay: I don't want to see this thing ever again.
[vibrates his hand through the mask, breaking it in half]
Cisco: So your powers are back.
Joe: I see Jay - excuse me - Hunter stole your color scheme too.
Jay: He stole a lot of things that were mine, except for that. That's, um - that's all him.
Iris: He said it was his father's from the war.
Dr. Harry Wells: Ironically, on my - on our Earth - this helmet stood for hope.
Jay: Yeah?
Dr. Harry Wells: Yeah.
Jay: Maybe I can continue on that sentiment, take something from him, for a change, make it my own.
Caitlin: It suits you.
Jay: Thank you, all of you, for saving me from Zoom, especially you, Flash.
Barry: You're welcome, Flash.
Jay: Now all I have to do is find my way home.
Wally: And where's that?
Jay: I think you would call it Earth-3.
Cisco: Uh-huh. Well, I can get you to Earth-2.
Dr. Harry Wells: My daughter and I can help you with the rest.
Jesse: We can?
Dr. Harry Wells: Yes, we can. We're going home.

Zoom: I know you're here, Harrison Wells, and you did not come alone. You can try to hide, but I'm the fastest man alive.

Bart: Yo, this place is crash!

Cisco: [after one of his vibes] Are you telling me I can see the future?
Dr. Harry Wells: That's exactly what I'm telling you.
Cisco: Those goggles are getting named immediately.

Allegra: I need to take these powers to the next level. So come the next apocalypse, I can can be more than a human glowstick.
Kamilla: Ooh, you should yell a cool catch phrase before you fire your bad ass energy beams. Like, "flame on"!
Cisco: You are such a dork, and I love you.
Kamilla: Not as much as I love you.
Cisco: Oh, that's actually not possible. Because my love knows no cosmic bounds, so...
Kamilla: Oh, yeah? Well...
[whispers into Cisco's ear]
Cisco: Oh, it's like that, huh?

Chester P. Runk: [walks into the invisible barrier] Uh. Does the van have a secret cloaking mode that I don't know about? Asking for a friend.
Cisco: That's no van.
[throws rock at the barrier]
Chester P. Runk: Whoa.
Cisco: Chess, we've just been under-the-domed.

Caitlin: Van Horn Industries created a peaceful anti-riot device called a Neuro-Stasis Field Generator. It's basically a bio-EMP that can immobilize any living organism within a confined radius. Of course, the new devices they had built were stolen. I wouldn't even know where to begin looking for them.
Ralph: I do.
[she and Barry look around in surprise]
Ralph: Can you at least try not to look so surprised? Look, if we need this, uh neo-Matrix whatever it is, if it's stolen tech, I think I know where to look.

Jay: Caitlin, I like the way you look at me with warmth and pride, and I'm not... I'm not worthy of those.
Caitlin: Yes, you are.
Jay: No. I did a terrible thing, Caitlin. When my world's Particle Accelerator went off, I became a speedster. I became the fastest man alive, only... only it wasn't enough for me. I wasn't... I wasn't fast enough, so I figured with my scientific background I could increase my powers. I did.
Caitlin: So you've taken Velocity-6 before?
Jay: Yes, but there were some... unforeseen side effects.
Caitlin: This is why you didn't want Barry to take it, or e-even know about it. Zoom never stole your speed. This is what's making you sick. Velocity-6 is killing you.
Jay: I wasn't lying when I said that stuff was dangerous. I've made so many mistakes.
Caitlin: You have something now that you've never had before - me - and I'm gonna figure this out.

Barry: Satellites say it's just a small, everyday earthquake.
Iris: Usually we have to kiss first to make the ground quake.

Nora: Dad, are you okay?
Barry: Nora, the temporal stream... I can feel the pure Still Force energy moving through me. I can see the past, present, and future all at once. I can see Jesse and Harry. Cisco and Frost too. I can see Bart's children, your wife. Nora, you're all so happy. I see... Max?
Nora: I'm getting married? Who's the lucky lady? Actually, don't tell me.
Barry: I can already feel the spark inside me fading. Take my hand.
Nora: Oh, this feels seriously weird.
Barry: Let's get the hell out of here.

Joe: I want to keep her safe.
Barry: You know the only real way to get her to stop is to tell her the truth.
Joe: Man, you really wanna tell her.
Barry: I tell her everything.
Joe: Mmm... not everything.
Barry: [he chuckles nervously, then sees Joe's look] Is it that obvious?
Joe: Not to her.
Barry: But how long have you known for?
Joe: I have watched you be in love with Iris since you were old enough to know what love is. And I've been waiting years for you to tell her. But you haven't.
Barry: Guess I was too slow.
Joe: Hmm.
Barry: Now she's happy with someone else, so...
Joe: When the universe wants to make something happen, whether it be giving a young man lightning speed or putting two people together, it has a way of figuring those things out.

Barry: I didn't... I mean, I didn't know what it was. I thought it was some sort of... illusion? I don't know.
Caitlin: Okay, well, we need to find it before it hurts somebody.
Barry: Can you track it?
Cisco: What is it with you guys? It's like you think I have ESP or something. I can't just magically sense where things are.

Dr. Ramsey Rosso: I will never accept death, not like you did.

Barry: You leaving?
John: There's something I've been putting off for far too long, and today it nearly got me killed. And now I have to deal with it.
Barry: I get it, it's... it's just this war. We need all the help we can get.
John: Barry, you think I don't know that? And as much as everything inside of me wants to stay and help you fight, in my heart and soul, man, I know I can't put this off any longer.
Barry: All right, well, whatever's going on, let us know if you need anything.
John: [hugging goodbye] Yeah. Thanks, man.
[stopping at the door]
John: And Barry? Good luck. With everything.

Oliver: You think this is funny? Do you think my skills are a joke?
Barry: Come on, man. I was a much better sport when you shot me.
Oliver: I shot you to teach you how to case an environment. You shot me to get a laugh.
Barry: All right.
Oliver: You know what? Fine, fine. Come at me. Try to get - try to get one hit in.
Lois: Deck him, Barry!
[Kara and Clark looks at Lois]
Lois: What? He's a jerk.

Barry: [Iris gifts him a copy of "North American Science" magazine featuring his dad on the cover] Iris, this is in mint condition. How did you find this? I've been looking for a copy ever since I lost my dad's as a kid.
Iris: Enjoy.
Barry: I mean, I can't believe you did this. I mentioned it once six months ago.
Iris: And that's how we do it, boo.

Barry: How did you know I was here?
Cisco: I had a feeling. A feeling I have not felt in a long time. And so I hacked into the security cameras, and I saw you fighting Top and Mirror Master in your O.G. suit with the white emblem - 2017 edition, of course.

Cisco: Destroying Cicada's dagger in the past will save Thawne from dying in the future?
Sherloque: That's right. Cicada's dagger has been dampening Thawne's powers all this time.
Caitlin: So if we get rid of the dagger now, it disappears in the future?
Barry: And Thawne gets out of Iron Heights.
Cisco: A reverse time hack.

Barry: Nora, you need to stay here.
Nora: You... you don't want my help?
Barry: I just... I got this one this time.
Nora: Are you sure that now is a good time to go? I mean, I just mean the city will be Flash-less, and an hour is a long time to be without the Flash.
Barry: The city is not gonna be Flash-less. It'll have XS.
Nora: Yeah, but what about the time you had to spend 24 hours in the Pipeline cell, and Weather Witch and Silver Ghost stole that A.R.G.U.S. car...
Barry: And you stopped 'em, without me.
Nora: But, what... with what happened to mom because of Cicada...

Nora: Yeah.
Barry: I trust you; you just gotta trust yourself.
