Seeing Sugar from YTV as a Flash villain (and one of the best ones so far, yeah) was great.

So, wait, when the plumber said “This house is...” and Joe interjected “Bitchin’?” was that the quote Barry was citing in the season premiere, or was Joe referencing Barry? Or is it some sort of moebius strip of bitchin’ houses? Was Joe there when they deciphered Barry’s writing?

Really irresponsible on the part of the church though. If a priest is allergic to cinnamon incense, don't keep any cinnamon incense. Even food allergies are issues for some foods that make dust easily (flour, peanuts for example), DO NOT USE ALLERGENS IN SMOKE.

Kevin brought his own incense. He’s a loving idiot, but he shows initiative.

So Barry not running from the cops is his way to gently caress up Devoe, right?

I liked an explanation I saw posted on Reddit, where him not running is basically him expressing his faith in Iris and the team’s ability to clear his name.

So I missed that part about the Cerebral Inhibitor failing, but they basically confirmed in this episode that either Savitar was just trolling them last year, or he was just so loving Barry Allen Stupid that he forgot that it actually didn't work, right?

Or, in the season finale, Harry’s crisis of confidence over his doodly-doo not deedly-deeing culminates in him realizing he forgot to take into account the bleebledy-blorp and he schmeckedy-shlorps the dingle-bopper and then his stupid thing works now for reasons.

Black Lightning suffers from the same problem. Jeff shows up somewhere and threatens a guy in his civvies, that doesn't work, so he comes back like 20 minutes later as Black Lightning and shocks the poo poo out of the dude, and nobody realizes it's him because he puts a pair of big sunglasses on and fucks with his voice a bit.

They call this out, though. Apparently he does something that makes his face literally hard to look at, like looking at the sun or something.

Barry getting subtly sweatier and more out of breath as the episode went on was a really brilliant touch, and added hugely to the sense of urgency and mounting desperation. How is this episode part of the same show? It’s like it’s from Earth-2, where The Flash is prestige TV.

Yeah, but the point is that Flash then proceeded to spend at the very least the better part of an hour within a single moment, during which Cisco couldn’t help specifically because they were moving too fast for his portal to form.

In Young Avengers, Speed (who was the son of the Scarlet Witch) at one point has a job where he does super speed assembly of items. He tells another character that while it looks like he just did everything in two seconds it was two subjective weeks for him.

Is that the same character where they do a training exercise and when they’re done he suddenly has grey hairs and says he hasn’t eaten or slept in a month and that these training exercises are literally killing him?

Because that was messed up.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised that DeVoe's plan turned out to be so loving dumb. It can only ever be as intelligent as the people writing it, after all.

I’m further disappointed that Oliver seems aware that something’s wrong. I would have loved to see Stephen Amell play Grant Gustin.

If Barry is also aware something’s wrong and isn’t being full-on broody Oliver Queen, this will be an amazing opportunity completely wasted.
