Is Wells' annoying "...not!" supposed to be a side-effect to his character due to the Flashpoint events?

No, they actually pointed out that Harry and Jesse (and everyone not in Earth-1 really) was unaffected by the timeline change. They didn't remember the speed room either, because the last time they saw everyone it was the original timeline (or as close to 'original timeline' as you'll get on this series).

Shouldn't Barry be rapidly forgetting old poo poo and recalling new poo poo? The main dilemma 2 episodes ago was about how Flashpoint time fuckery was eroding his original memories and replacing them with Flashpoint ones. He should probably be remembering the speed room and forgetting...I don't know, King Shark or something?

DCTV has the least consistent time travel rules in fiction. That's a real accomplishment.

I assume it's just due to Flashpoint being a really dramatic change compared to the new timeline with its relatively minimal changes. Just think of the time rules as being sort of variable based on the situation, like a person's memories. Legends pretty much said outright that little changes are OK - not great, but cosmic balance stays.

But it touched his time on earth 1.

No, it didn't. Harry was saying that, like Barry, they had never seen the Speed Room - he and Jesse remember the pre-Flashpoint Earth-1 due to being in another universe when it happened and are thus unaffected.

Where did Barry take Iris on their date, and subsequently leave her?

I thought it was a pretty good episode, but I like Wells and Jessie a lot. Although it sucked that Jessie was given her costume, but didn't get to wear it. Next week, I guess. Are they sticking around for a while?

Here she is, I'll spoiler it just in case:

Not going to lie, at this point I'm just watching to see how far Tom can stretch this role. Harrisons Wellses for seasons and seasons.

He's basically a gun-toting David Caruso style CSI now.


YEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

In that particular scene I thought he looked more like a young Jerome Flynn.

Oliver's probably floating them money under the table. And Ray probably bequeathed them his fortune as a slush fund too on account of him being "dead" to the rest of the world. :v:

Comedy option: Cisco is actually still Flashpoint rich, he's just hiding it from everyone :homebrew:

Or he secretly went to Alchemy. Money IS the ultimate superpower...

My dislike of Wally/Keiynan doesn't have a goddamned thing to do with his race.






It's rooted in my deep hatred of Australians.

Heh, 'rooted'.

Yep, he has a daughter he's literally never met and he is shook as gently caress about it.

Funny how this matches perfectly to both Stein and Diggle. They need to bond.

Actually now that I think about it, that buddy pairing may have more unused potential than any other.

Maybe it was and a government just intercepted the rockets.

Or perhaps both pods got stuck in the Phantom Zone this time, and will need to be rescued by the Legends so Team Flash can take them in and raise them.
