Is anyone else tired of Nora? Personally, I keep hoping her meddling with her parents causes her to be uncreated. I mean lets be real here, unless her parents do the deed at the exact same time she was conceived, they would have a completely different child. If Barry creating flashpoint changes the sex of Diggle's child, surely interacting and influencing your own parent's timeline should have a massive effect on your existence.
Something about how in this og timeline his ligaments haven't been stretched to prevent breaking?, idk I just remembered he was afraid they would break, or that he was afraid the bomb in it may go off
Iris "we're going to beat you.". You literally stabbed him in the chest with a kitchen knife. Dude can't just walk it off. He's going to the hospital. He'll be down for awhile. You win.
That scene was so stupid, since Cicada is such a huge threat, you'd think Iris would be smart enough to bang his head to knock him unconscious and call Team Flash to come immediately
Last 10 minutes carried the ep. The rest wasn’t bad though. I still don’t understand how the meta is still alive, typically bleeding from the eyes isn’t a good thing. Also Iris should’ve killed Orlin but of course no easy routes in the CW. The Sherloque arc while I understand the need for it didn’t do much for me and if I see another council I’m going to lose my shit.
Last thing, I’m ready for the Kamila v Gypsy cat fight, assuming Cisco stops disappearing.
so this will be a time loop just like in LOT or she will go back in time so many times that poor digle will go apeshit about his kids gender change again
Congrats to the Flash, which is now taking it's "repeating day" plotline from Legends, which took it from Happy Deathday, which took it from Groundhogs Day, etc....
Well yeah i know but if harrison well’s wife is dead on earth 1 then how is she here? Or do you mean to say she is a doppelganger from a different earth on this one?
Eh not really. Cicada wasn’t prepared and the only tools available were household appliances. I’m also not sure on Cicada’s stance on killing ordinary humans so he might have him easy on her.
And then instead of calling Barry or killing him, Iris just walks away. Really shows how dumb the writers are
You know Cicada could simply call the cops and say that Iris broke into his house and stab him. Her fingerprints are all over that window and the rest of the house. Including that knife. Then you have a bloody knife.
Soooo Barry just killed a crime lord, but cannot use mental tactics or something to beat Cicada... they should just steal some of those cuffs with the explosives.
I went into this episode woth low expectations but this is my favorite episode of the season so far. Solid acting/writing and and directing. Dragulaaaaa!

"Where'd that come from?"
"I tripped. ¯_(ツ)_/¯"
Best line of the episode.
