The Flash (2014–…): Season 3, Episode 14 - Attack on Central City - full transcript
Grodd and his army bring their battle to Earth-1, which the team must find a way to stop.
My name is Barry Allen,
and I am the fastest man alive.
To the outside world, I'm an
ordinary forensic scientist,
but secretly, with the help of
my friends at S.T.A.R. Labs,
I fight crime and find
other meta-humans like me.
In an attempt to stop the
evil speedster Savitar,
I was accidentally
thrust into the future,
and I saw him murder
the woman that I love.
But I won't let that happen.
I'm gonna do everything in my power
to change the future,
and I'm the only one
fast enough to keep her alive.
I am The Flash.
Previously on "The Flash"...
Grodd. He's got my dad.
Harry's my friend. I'm not
gonna just abandon him.
I'm going back to Earth-2.
Now I am the
ruler of Gorilla City,
and all the gorillas will
follow anything I order.
Grodd the gorilla, he's
talking through Wells?
Yeah.
Who is this gorgeous intruder?
Her name is Gypsy.
She's a Collector.
Open a breach!
Time to warp out of this madhouse.
You will open the breaches,
and Central City will fall before Grodd.
Barry?
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
You're in a good mood for
6:30 in the morning.
Yes, I am.
Was I too loud?
I did make breakfast.
We got pancakes and waffles,
some French toast,
bacon and sausage, perfectly cooked.
And I picked up some of that
dark roast that you love so much.
Barry Allen, what has gotten into you?
Being with you makes me want
to do things like this.
Come here.
I love you.
I love you.
Um, so do you actually
want any of this, or...
Um, yes.
And some of the food too.
Yeah.
Whoa-ho-ho-ho, nice.
What...
are you doing?
I'm decorating!
Look at this place! Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
You're decorating the Speed Lab?
Yes, I'm decorating the Speed Lab.
You know, 'cause Francisco, you know,
he wouldn't let me decorate the cortex,
'cause I made it look
oh-so-jolly for Christmastime.
What are the balls for?
- Do you know what those are?
- Lanterns.
You know what I always say,
a fella that can't tell
the difference between
balls and lanterns
is in trouble when the lights go out.
Ohhh...
You go front to back.
Toothbrushing. You go front to back?
'Cause I'm a small circles kind of guy.
I wonder how the other
Wells brushes his teeth.
- The murderer?
- I'm fascinated
by the subtle differences
between us, you know?
- And the not-so-subtle ones.
- Like what?
Like the fact that I'm a genius
and you're a moron.
Okay.
See you at the party.
*THE FLASH (2014)*
Season 03 Episode 14
"Attack on Central City"
Wow. What a transformation.
Again!
So this is H.R.'s
contribution to the team?
Being Martha Stewart?
Guys, he's just trying
to do something nice.
Heads up!
I'm not really good with
this kind of thing.
You know what I got to do?
I got to take some lessons
from that guy in the green elf suit
over there in Star
City, what's his name?
Green Arrow. Hey, what is all this?
Friend's Day!
Ba-da!
- What?
- Yeah.
- Friend's Day.
- Friend's?
Oh, it's my Earth's equivalent
- of Valentine's Day.
- Valentine's Day.
And I thought, like, after, you know,
our success with the gorillas,
that we should, like,
celebrate the love.
Was all this necessary?
Yeah, Joe. Speaking of, where is your...
Your lady friend? 'Cause
I would like to...
No, you wouldn't like to do anything.
She's at work, which is
where I should be going.
Yeah, I...
Look what I have, ladies and gentlemen.
I have your own personal
Friend's Day card.
- Wow.
- For yours truly, Ms. West.
- Thank you, H.R.
- Captain.
- Thanks, H.R.
- Leader of the ship.
- Thank... thank you.
- You're so welcome.
Oh, hi, Jesse "So Quick"
Yeah, I also made one for
your grumpy old dad.
Ah, you know what I like?
- Yo' vibe.
- Thank you.
Caitlyn.
Oh! I forgot the coffee!
"You have sped into my
heart, Jesse Quick."
Oh, well, I guess that makes two of us.
Wow, H.R. is nothing like my dad.
He's so sweet and thoughtful
and understanding.
We should tell him.
Tell your dad about you moving here?
- Yeah.
- Um, now?
Yeah, I mean, H.R. said there'd
never be a perfect time.
Just got to rip the Band-Aid off.
- Yeah.
- Okay, let's do it.
H.R. does make a good point.
Yeah, what's that?
It was a really big win for
the team, beating Grodd.
I mean, we stopped a gorilla
attack from happening.
Yeah, look at you, changing the future.
We're all changing the future,
one headline at a time.
Look, I don't know what
the future's gonna bring,
but I hope every day is with you.
Which is why I wanted to ask you...
Barry Allen,
will you be my friend?
Always.
- Hey.
- Hey.
H.R. made this for you.
H.R. is an idiot.
So there's something I've
been meaning to tell you.
- Okay.
- So I-I'm just gonna say it.
I think that's wise.
I'm gonna move to Earth-1.
What?
- I'm gonna stay here.
- Why would you do that?
Grodd is no longer a threat.
No, it's... it's not that. Uh...
I want to be with Wally.
This whole thing has made us realize
that we have no idea what's
gonna happen, you know, and...
And if we're gonna go through something,
we want to go through it together.
Yeah.
This guy?
You like him?
Yeah.
He makes you happy?
Dad...
Okay.
That's it?
You're not gonna yell?
You're not gonna throw that over there?
Your happiness is what matters to me.
You're both adults.
I respect your decision.
Don't screw it up.
Okay, that was weird.
I guess that this means that
we gotta find you a place.
Me? More like us.
You know, sometimes it
seems like everybody else
gets to have their love doughnut.
Where's my love doughnut?
- Oh, love is complicated.
- Mm.
So, uh, where's Julian?
He's taking care of some
family matters in London.
Just so you know,
we are just friends.
Yeah, the friend zone. I know it well.
Pretty sure I have a
permanent residence here.
You know, maybe I should
just swallow the pill.
Maybe my game just ain't strong.
Your game is so strong!
For what it's worth,
I think Lisa Snart was totally into you.
Lisa Snart.
Not that I would actually
let you date her.
Cisco, I promise, there is a beautiful,
intelligent woman out there
who's gonna challenge you
to be your best version of yourself.
In fact, she could be
right around the corner.
Gypsy!
Oof!
Who the hell is this?
Where am I?
Ohh...
Why am I locked up?
Oops.
My powers don't work in here.
Yeah, it's kind of the
point of the cell.
What happened?
I thought we were all on the same page.
I spared your life, and you
said you'd go back to Earth-19
and tell everyone you killed H.R.
That's exactly what I did.
I told the council you were dead.
I don't believe you.
I didn't come here to take you back!
I'm telling you!
Then why are you here?
I don't know.
The last thing I remember,
I was on Earth-2...
hunting down another breacher.
Wait, you were just on Earth-2?
Where?
In the African jungle,
where I saw...
Let me guess, a gorilla?
Super tall? Anger management issues?
Grodd must have taken control of her
and sent her here to kill us.
Yeah, but she's on a
different Earth than him,
and Grodd's telepathy can't
cross dimensions like that.
Grodd said he always thinks ahead.
Just like the Reverse-Flash.
He didn't have you to open a breach,
so he used Gypsy instead.
So that means...
Grodd's here.
Something tells me he's not alone.
Any sign of him yet?
Not since you asked 30 seconds ago.
Okay, he's a giant gorilla,
who's probably leading an
army of giant gorillas.
- How can you not find him?
- He's probably figured out a way
- to scramble our satellites.
- Satellites.
We're talking about a
genius super-ape here.
And a master strategist
who successfully fooled us on my Earth.
We Wellses, we don't fool
easy, do we, hard hat?
Don't call me "hard hat".
We have to find him before
he hurts somebody else.
Don't worry, Barry, we will.
Every time I think we've beat him,
he comes back stronger, smarter,
and more dangerous.
He's evolving.
I keep trying to fight him the same way.
Okay, guys, look, we
just have to come up
with a different way to beat him.
What we need to do is get
ahead of him for once.
We can. You've seen the future.
You know there's an attack.
If we just figure out where
that attack happens,
we can launch a preemptive
strike against Grodd.
We can stop the attack
before it ever starts.
And fortunately, we have someone
who can foresee future events.
Before they happen.
Okay, okay, there's only one problem.
I can only vibe what Barry saw,
and a ticker on the side of a bus stop
doesn't give us a whole lot of info.
What if we widen the scope of your vibe?
Then you can see more of the future.
Yes. I can do that.
Just need to borrow your vibe gear.
- Harry, that's my only pair.
- I'll be careful.
- It's my only pair.
- West, come with me.
- You have an engineer's mind.
- Yeah, sure.
Happy to help.
We're gonna need all
the help we can get.
Can you talk to Joe, see
if he can rally CCPD?
Yeah, yeah, I'll let him know that
an army of sentient gorillas
is about to storm the city.
- He's gonna love that.
- Yup.
What about Gypsy? She's
a really powerful meta.
Yeah, but how do we know she's
not a Grodd sleeper agent?
She's not. I checked her out.
Can you convince her to help?
Bro, she won't say no to me.
No way.
You've got three
speedsters, an ice queen,
and a guy who vibes
almost as well as I do.
You don't need my help to stop Grodd.
Need I remind you, you're the one
who brought Grodd here
in the first place.
Not by choice!
I was chasing a fugitive
from my world on Earth-2
when Grodd ambushed me
and turned me into his damn puppet.
Okay, so then this is
the perfect opportunity
for payback, right?
Don't tell me you're gonna
run away from this.
I never run.
Then stand and fight with us.
We need you.
You need me?
Are you trying to Luke Starkiller me?
What if I am?
Is that what it's gonna
take to get you to stay?
Here's a bonus, you get to spend
extra time with this face.
And look at this face. Come on.
Who doesn't want to get to spend
extra time with this guy?
What?
The things I saw,
when Grodd was in control of my mind,
the horrors in that monster's head,
I can never un-see them.
What horrors?
The city in ruins.
People in pain. Death everywhere.
That's what Grodd wants,
what he's planning.
I'm sorry, Cisco.
This is your fight.
Not mine.
Now, if you don't mind,
I still have a fugitive to catch, so...
Okay.
I understand.
Take care of yourself, Cisco.
Admit it.
You are so into me.
West.
How are we coming along with that gear?
I've made all the
adjustments you asked for,
so we should be good to go.
Good. Thank you.
Yeah.
Great.
Um, how exactly is this gonna
help Cisco vibe any differently?
Ah, simple science.
We just broaden the overall
harmonic resonance
of Cisco's vibrational frequencies
all while focusing them on
a fixed temporal locus.
Couldn't be easier.
Yeah.
You know, I got to admit, Harry,
I was super surprised
at how cool you were
with Jesse staying on this Earth.
I thought, for sure, you
were gonna freak out
and throw something
or throw someone.
Well, my daughter's happiness
is of the utmost importance to me.
And you make her happy.
I'm gonna do everything in my
power to keep it that way.
I appreciate that, West.
I'm sure Jesse will too, after I'm...
gone.
We're gonna come visit
you on Earth-2 a bunch,
so you don't have to
worry about that, Harry.
Yeah, right.
Uh, well, means the world to me,
seeing as I don't know how
much time I have left.
Wait, y-you're sick?
I'm not as well as I once was.
Have you seen a doctor?
Yes.
I have seen a doctor, West.
Is it serious?
Oh, man, Harry.
Man. Um...
- I'm sorry.
- Me too.
Does Jesse know?
Appreciate you keep this between... us.
She doesn't know, and we
wouldn't want to upset her.
Hey, SWAT's ready to
roll whenever y'all are.
We find Grodd yet?
We're about to.
Cisco, you ready?
Harry, this thing, if
it fries my brain...
"It's an improvement."
- Was that "Rocky"?
- Yeah, Burgess Meredith.
Yeah, I'm ready.
Word of warning. Vibing blind,
it's like surfing a monster wave.
You need to stay above
the temporal flow,
otherwise your consciousness
can get sucked under.
And then what happens?
I don't know.
Guess we'll find out.
Wait, what?
Where are you, Ramon? What do you see?
I'm at an intersection.
State and Oakhill.
I think this is where it goes down.
That's a block away from the bridge.
That leads right to the heart of town.
If those gorillas get
over that bridge...
They'll overrun the city in no time.
Not if we stop them first.
Eyes wide, everybody.
Grodd's army could be here
any second, all right?
There's no sign of them.
You sure this is the right place?
According to Cisco, this is it.
Was it the right time?
We're too early.
No, Flash.
Too late.
- Grodd.
- I remember,
this human is important to you.
Now...
he's all mine.
No! Hey!
Do not hurt him. I'm the one you want!
- Right?
- I warned you, Flash.
And now I'm here on First Earth
to make good on my promise.
And when I'm finished, this city
and all the puny humans
will die.
No!
Joe!
Are you okay?
I think so.
I don't get it.
How is attacking Detective Joe West
a part of Grodd's plan?
- It wasn't.
- Then what was it?
A distraction.
I don't care if Senator
Ford is having doubts.
If the secretary doesn't
approve that budget
first thing in the morning, we're gonna
have to make some serious cuts...
The hell was that?
That damn gorilla almost
got me this time.
Shouldn't even have a scar.
Do you remember anything
from when Grodd was controlling you?
Not really. Just some flashes.
Flashes of what?
They were, like, these images...
places I've never seen before.
It was like I was seeing
what he was seeing.
Gypsy said the same thing.
Uh-oh, here we go. I know that look.
That's the "I have a genius idea" look.
A couple years back on my Earth,
there was a neuroscientist
that was able to achieve memory recovery
using transcranial magnetic
simulators on brain-damaged...
We use that here but more
as a depression treatment.
Well, in this experiment,
the neuroscientist
focused all the energy
on the occipital cortex
of the patients,
allowing them to achieve
almost full memory recollection.
So you think the
connection Grodd creates
in the brains of those he mind-controls
goes both ways?
Could be.
Maybe we could use Grodd's memories
that he left behind in Joe to
figure out what his plan is.
We'd just make some TCM simulators.
- All it takes is some...
- Magnets.
Throw together some magnets,
make a helmet out of 'em.
Hold on. Y'all want to
put a bunch of magnets
against my skull to look into the mind
of a psychotic, murderous ape?
Yeah.
Fine.
Let's make it happen,
before Grodd tries to
kill somebody else.
It's gonna be okay.
Hey.
Is everything okay?
Just tired of seeing the
people I care about
be put in harm's way.
Yeah, but like always,
we're gonna work together
and come up with a plan.
We're gonna stop Grodd, Barry.
And then what?
We just send him back?
He's just gonna come her again.
We have to end this once and for all.
Wait. What?
You want to kill Grodd?
Why not?
That's how their society
in Gorilla City works...
Kill or be killed.
That's why he wanted me to kill Solovar.
And you know what? I should have.
I showed too much mercy.
No, you did what was right, Barry,
as you always do.
That's what makes you a hero.
Oliver has killed.
He's still considered a hero.
Yeah, and he lives with the
weight of that decision
every single day.
I think that sometimes,
the only way to stop
bad things from happening
is to just get rid of
what's causing them.
What is this really about?
Grodd or what happens to me?
I kill Grodd, his attack never happens,
that changes the future, and...
you live, yeah.
Your humanity, showing mercy,
that is what separates
you from everyone else.
That's the reason that
everyone looks up to you.
Don't compromise who you are...
ever.
Losing what makes The Flash The Flash...
My life isn't worth it if
that's the cost to save me.
There you are.
Hey, you know your dad's
gonna be all right.
What's wrong?
Look, I've been thinking, and I...
I don't think you should stay here.
I think... It was a bad idea.
Um...
Wally, you asked me.
Yeah, and I shouldn't have.
I think you should go back to Earth-2...
spend as much time with
your dad as you can.
Spend as much time with my dad as I can?
Wally, what are you talking about?
Your dad is sick, Jesse.
He's really sick.
He doesn't have much time left.
Did he tell you that?
I'm so sorry.
He is...
unbelievable.
So all you have to do is concentrate
on your memories of Grodd, okay?
Yeah, that won't be a problem.
All right.
Hey, dead man.
- Seriously?
- Hm?
You told Wally you were dying?
- Dying?
- You're dying?
I didn't say I was, uh...
I-I said I didn't know how
much time I had left.
- None of us...
- Okay, what is wrong with you?
- Um...
- Is there seriously nothing
you won't say to get me
to stay by your side?
- I don't...
- Look, whatever.
I'm moving here, whether
you like it or not.
So all you have to do is concentrate
- on your memories of Grodd.
- Yeah.
- You ready?
- Waiting on you, dead man.
Mm-hmm.
Hey, if I start to Grodd
out at any point,
cut the power off immediately.
Of course.
All right, Joe, you ready?
- Yeah.
- All right, then.
So here...
we...
go.
Joe?
I didn't know he could draw.
Well, that's the thing.
Anybody can actually draw.
It's just that some have
more developed visual cortex
and manual ability, as you know.
And right now, these magnets are
taking that part of his brain
and lightin' it up.
Well, it worked.
Now we have a new problem.
We have to figure out
who the hell this is.
Good evening, General.
Color and number of the day.
Purple 246.
Are you all right, sir?
Sick.
Good.
General.
Great.
Yo, Rocky.
How you doin'?
Yeah, I'm fine. I just...
No matter what I do to stop Grodd,
he just keeps finding
new ways to attack,
new ways to destroy, and I...
Iris doesn't think I should,
but the only way this
ends is if I kill him.
Kill him.
That might be the most idiotic thing
I've ever heard you say.
- Wait, what?
- Iris is right.
If you don't want to listen, go ahead,
keep being an idiot.
I don't understand.
Don't. Kill. Grodd.
Harry, you of all people
should understand.
I mean, you would have
killed to save Jesse.
You were gonna kill Zoom.
Barry, there's a thousand things
I've done that I'm not proud of.
Some of them recently.
Every time I do one of those things,
it makes it easier to
do it the next time.
I look at you, out there
battling the darkness,
with honor and hope, and I'm reminded
there's always another way,
always.
Killing Grodd is not your answer.
Saving one life doesn't
justify taking another.
Find the other way.
Guys.
We need you in the cortex.
What's up, Cisco?
We've got a behemoth of a problem.
Terrific.
So we ran our John Doe image
through every database.
And it was tough. I mean,
the guy's a ghost.
We've been calling him Jason Bourne.
But then H.R. noticed something.
Well, at first, it was
a real brain-twister,
but then I remembered a quote
from a renowned poet from my
Earth, Alfred Yankovic...
Are you talking about Weird Al?
Why? 'Cause of the hair?
Get to the point already,
if you have one.
I can, hard hat. It's his hair.
Standard military cut.
So we ran the image through
the Department of Defense database,
and, as Cisco would say, "Yahtzee."
I would say that.
Nice work, H.R.
I know.
DoD has him listed as
Air Force General Matthew McNally.
General Matthew McNally, and
I'll give you one guess...
Just guess... What he's in charge of.
I know you're gonna
say military weapons,
but I really hope you don't
say military weapons.
It's worse, Barr.
Nuclear missiles.
McNally has the highest clearance.
He can have a rocket in the
air in less than ten minutes.
So are the satellites
back to functional?
We ran a full diagnostic.
Any nuclear weapon that's
authorized to fire,
- an alarm will sound.
- Okay, good.
Does it sound like that?
That's an alarm.
Yeah, it's that alarm, H.R.
Okay.
Short-range ballistic missile
authorized to fire from Fort Reynolds.
How much time do we have?
Minutes.
Grodd, what have you done?
Can we stop it from here?
Military weapons are basically analog.
I mean, they still use floppy disks.
I'm going after it.
Guys, no, look, I appreciate it,
but I need you to stay here, okay?
If I can't stop it,
I need you to get everybody
to safety, okay?
_
All right, I'm with the missile.
Barry, to access the
keypad, remove the panel
at the base of the missile vehicle.
All right.
All right, that's done. What's next?
Well, the good news is, this missile
has a built-in five-digit kill code.
Great. What is it?
That's the bad news. We don't know.
For real? Ah, well, then
what am I supposed to do?
You have to try every
combination, Barry.
It's okay, with this type of launcher,
you won't set off the nuke.
Barry, simulators are projecting
that hundreds of thousands will die.
Yeah, let's hope not.
Come on.
Five digits. How many combos is that?
- I'm guessing it's about...
- Precisely 90,000,
which you would know
if you weren't a moron
and you were an actual genius.
Two missiles are locked on target.
Guys, we need something
else. This isn't working.
Plan B, anyone?
Work!
How much time does he have?
15 seconds.
Guys, I need something!
This isn't working!
Something else!
You just got to keep going, Barry.
You just... just got to keep trying.
Six missiles are locked on target.
It worked.
It worked! We did it!
We did it!
Oh, thank God.
Flash stopped the weapon.
But he can't stop us all.
Attack!
Found them.
They're right outside the city.
Heading for State and Oakhill, fast.
Which leads right into downtown.
- All right, so what do we do?
- Barry, I know we're
speedsters and everything, but
we are way outnumbered here.
Yeah, I mean, he's right,
how are the three of us
gonna take on all those gorillas?
We have to.
As much as I hate these gorillas,
especially Grodd, if you kill him,
the other ones might stand down,
but you might not be able to
come back from this, Barry.
- You know that, right?
- I know.
But there's another way.
It's not gonna come to that.
Cisco, I'm gonna need your help.
Tracked her down on Earth-2.
Breach is taken care of.
Thank you.
Risky move coming to an Earth
where interdimensional travel
is punishable by death.
Especially when I'm the one
who's supposed to uphold that law.
I need to talk to you.
I don't do long-distance relationships.
Don't get me wrong, this is something
I'd love to talk about in more detail,
especially if distance
is your only hesitation.
But I'm here to talk about Grodd.
Okay, I see you don't
take no for an answer.
Gypsy, please.
He's gonna destroy my city.
And he's gonna hurt the people I love.
I told you before,
that's not my problem.
Look, just go back to Earth-1
before someone sees you
and I have to do something
that I don't want to.
You know, you told me I could
do things with my powers
I'd never even imagined,
and you're right,
'cause I'm not just
vibing people anymore.
I'm vibing what they feel.
And you know what I'm getting from you,
right here, right now?
You're more than this. You're like me.
You want to do something good.
Look, we need something to stop Grodd,
and I'm gonna need your help getting it.
Please, be the hero I
know you want to be.
Wells, how long do we have?
Two minutes, Barry.
Two minutes? Ten seconds!
Can you not even tell time?
That's what I said. Ten seconds.
So got any pointers on
how the three of us
are gonna save everyone and
stop a few hundred gorillas?
Go for the legs?
Just try not to get caught,
'cause, trust me, they won't let go.
Well, that was not the
start we're looking for.
Because...
How long do they have to last?
Hopefully not much longer.
Your city will fall, Flash.
There's only one way to end this.
You kill me.
But you won't do that.
All you care about is mercy.
Yeah, you're right.
Except I'm not the only one
that wants to stop you.
Solovar!
I challenge you, Grodd!
And you will fall again!
Good-bye, Grodd.
Stop! Stop...
Death isn't the way.
He betrayed me.
I know, so leave him
here, where he's from.
We won't let him go back to
Gorilla City ever again.
Just spare his life,
like I spared yours.
Send us home...
all of us.
How long is it gonna take
to put 100 gorillas through a breach?
We're gonna be here all night.
You know what I ought to do?
Whip us up some cappuccino...
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!
All the gorillas are back on Earth-2.
And Grodd?
I called Lyla. He's with A.R.G.U.S.
Good. I don't know about y'all,
but I don't ever need to see
a super-smart, telepathic gorilla again.
I'm with you.
Not that Grodd didn't have
some justification for
mistrusting humans.
Whatever good was in Grodd is gone.
As far as I'm concerned,
they can throw him
in the same cage as King Shark.
Mm, I'd pay money to see that fight.
All right, well, if the city
doesn't need my help anymore,
I'm gonna head back to Earth-19.
Oh, really?
So you did all this for the city, huh?
'Cause I'm pretty sure
there's a different reason
you chose to help us.
That's right, I was the only one
who knew where Solovar was.
Oh, right, yeah.
How could I forget?
- Mm.
- Don't front.
You're into me.
Look, Cisco, I mean,
even if I was...
You couldn't handle me.
Bye, guys.
- Bye.
- Mm-hmm.
I'll marry that woman.
Yeah.
Okay, I better get this story
in before I lose my job.
Okay.
You sure you still don't
want to look into the future
and see what's changed?
No.
Think I'm done with that.
- Good.
- I'll see you at home.
Okay.
Hey, I'll walk out with you.
I got a date with Cecile.
Oh.
Come on, guys. Let's go find Harry.
To review, this is my daughter.
There's nothing more important to me.
So you do right by my daughter,
or there is nowhere in the multiverse
I won't find you.
Dad.
They'd have to kill me.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye, Jesse Quick.
Always another way, Flash.
Always.
Babe?
Is that Grandma Esther's noodles?
Mm-hmm.
And there's mint chocolate
chip in the freezer.
And these are for you.
What is all this?
I've been really busy recently with...
trying to avoid the future.
And I forgot that there's
always another way.
What is that?
Making the future...
our future.
My great-grandfather gave
this to my great-grandmother
after World War II.
He wanted to propose
before he was shipped out,
but he... he didn't have the money.
And he bought this three years later
when he was stationed in London.
Fought his way across France,
all the way to Berlin,
and this ring...
around his neck with his dog tags.
And when he got back, she was
waiting for him on the dock
of the Brooklyn Navy Yards.
He proposed on the spot.
After my mom passed away,
Joe held on to this for me...
until tonight.
- Barry...
- Iris West,
will you marry me?
Inside of us, we both know
you belong with Victor.
You're part of his work, the
thing that keeps him going.
If that plane leaves...
Okay, I'm so confused.
Is it supposed to be about
the War of the Americas?
Do you not like it? 'Cause
this is my favorite movie.
No, no, I didn't say that. Um...
I guess we just have
more wars on my Earth.
Well, we can just watch something else.
Or we don't have to
watch anything at all.
Mm.
You know what I could go for?
Big Belly Burger.
Wow!
Wow, ow.
Um, I'll be right back.
Thank you.
and I am the fastest man alive.
To the outside world, I'm an
ordinary forensic scientist,
but secretly, with the help of
my friends at S.T.A.R. Labs,
I fight crime and find
other meta-humans like me.
In an attempt to stop the
evil speedster Savitar,
I was accidentally
thrust into the future,
and I saw him murder
the woman that I love.
But I won't let that happen.
I'm gonna do everything in my power
to change the future,
and I'm the only one
fast enough to keep her alive.
I am The Flash.
Previously on "The Flash"...
Grodd. He's got my dad.
Harry's my friend. I'm not
gonna just abandon him.
I'm going back to Earth-2.
Now I am the
ruler of Gorilla City,
and all the gorillas will
follow anything I order.
Grodd the gorilla, he's
talking through Wells?
Yeah.
Who is this gorgeous intruder?
Her name is Gypsy.
She's a Collector.
Open a breach!
Time to warp out of this madhouse.
You will open the breaches,
and Central City will fall before Grodd.
Barry?
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
You're in a good mood for
6:30 in the morning.
Yes, I am.
Was I too loud?
I did make breakfast.
We got pancakes and waffles,
some French toast,
bacon and sausage, perfectly cooked.
And I picked up some of that
dark roast that you love so much.
Barry Allen, what has gotten into you?
Being with you makes me want
to do things like this.
Come here.
I love you.
I love you.
Um, so do you actually
want any of this, or...
Um, yes.
And some of the food too.
Yeah.
Whoa-ho-ho-ho, nice.
What...
are you doing?
I'm decorating!
Look at this place! Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
You're decorating the Speed Lab?
Yes, I'm decorating the Speed Lab.
You know, 'cause Francisco, you know,
he wouldn't let me decorate the cortex,
'cause I made it look
oh-so-jolly for Christmastime.
What are the balls for?
- Do you know what those are?
- Lanterns.
You know what I always say,
a fella that can't tell
the difference between
balls and lanterns
is in trouble when the lights go out.
Ohhh...
You go front to back.
Toothbrushing. You go front to back?
'Cause I'm a small circles kind of guy.
I wonder how the other
Wells brushes his teeth.
- The murderer?
- I'm fascinated
by the subtle differences
between us, you know?
- And the not-so-subtle ones.
- Like what?
Like the fact that I'm a genius
and you're a moron.
Okay.
See you at the party.
*THE FLASH (2014)*
Season 03 Episode 14
"Attack on Central City"
Wow. What a transformation.
Again!
So this is H.R.'s
contribution to the team?
Being Martha Stewart?
Guys, he's just trying
to do something nice.
Heads up!
I'm not really good with
this kind of thing.
You know what I got to do?
I got to take some lessons
from that guy in the green elf suit
over there in Star
City, what's his name?
Green Arrow. Hey, what is all this?
Friend's Day!
Ba-da!
- What?
- Yeah.
- Friend's Day.
- Friend's?
Oh, it's my Earth's equivalent
- of Valentine's Day.
- Valentine's Day.
And I thought, like, after, you know,
our success with the gorillas,
that we should, like,
celebrate the love.
Was all this necessary?
Yeah, Joe. Speaking of, where is your...
Your lady friend? 'Cause
I would like to...
No, you wouldn't like to do anything.
She's at work, which is
where I should be going.
Yeah, I...
Look what I have, ladies and gentlemen.
I have your own personal
Friend's Day card.
- Wow.
- For yours truly, Ms. West.
- Thank you, H.R.
- Captain.
- Thanks, H.R.
- Leader of the ship.
- Thank... thank you.
- You're so welcome.
Oh, hi, Jesse "So Quick"
Yeah, I also made one for
your grumpy old dad.
Ah, you know what I like?
- Yo' vibe.
- Thank you.
Caitlyn.
Oh! I forgot the coffee!
"You have sped into my
heart, Jesse Quick."
Oh, well, I guess that makes two of us.
Wow, H.R. is nothing like my dad.
He's so sweet and thoughtful
and understanding.
We should tell him.
Tell your dad about you moving here?
- Yeah.
- Um, now?
Yeah, I mean, H.R. said there'd
never be a perfect time.
Just got to rip the Band-Aid off.
- Yeah.
- Okay, let's do it.
H.R. does make a good point.
Yeah, what's that?
It was a really big win for
the team, beating Grodd.
I mean, we stopped a gorilla
attack from happening.
Yeah, look at you, changing the future.
We're all changing the future,
one headline at a time.
Look, I don't know what
the future's gonna bring,
but I hope every day is with you.
Which is why I wanted to ask you...
Barry Allen,
will you be my friend?
Always.
- Hey.
- Hey.
H.R. made this for you.
H.R. is an idiot.
So there's something I've
been meaning to tell you.
- Okay.
- So I-I'm just gonna say it.
I think that's wise.
I'm gonna move to Earth-1.
What?
- I'm gonna stay here.
- Why would you do that?
Grodd is no longer a threat.
No, it's... it's not that. Uh...
I want to be with Wally.
This whole thing has made us realize
that we have no idea what's
gonna happen, you know, and...
And if we're gonna go through something,
we want to go through it together.
Yeah.
This guy?
You like him?
Yeah.
He makes you happy?
Dad...
Okay.
That's it?
You're not gonna yell?
You're not gonna throw that over there?
Your happiness is what matters to me.
You're both adults.
I respect your decision.
Don't screw it up.
Okay, that was weird.
I guess that this means that
we gotta find you a place.
Me? More like us.
You know, sometimes it
seems like everybody else
gets to have their love doughnut.
Where's my love doughnut?
- Oh, love is complicated.
- Mm.
So, uh, where's Julian?
He's taking care of some
family matters in London.
Just so you know,
we are just friends.
Yeah, the friend zone. I know it well.
Pretty sure I have a
permanent residence here.
You know, maybe I should
just swallow the pill.
Maybe my game just ain't strong.
Your game is so strong!
For what it's worth,
I think Lisa Snart was totally into you.
Lisa Snart.
Not that I would actually
let you date her.
Cisco, I promise, there is a beautiful,
intelligent woman out there
who's gonna challenge you
to be your best version of yourself.
In fact, she could be
right around the corner.
Gypsy!
Oof!
Who the hell is this?
Where am I?
Ohh...
Why am I locked up?
Oops.
My powers don't work in here.
Yeah, it's kind of the
point of the cell.
What happened?
I thought we were all on the same page.
I spared your life, and you
said you'd go back to Earth-19
and tell everyone you killed H.R.
That's exactly what I did.
I told the council you were dead.
I don't believe you.
I didn't come here to take you back!
I'm telling you!
Then why are you here?
I don't know.
The last thing I remember,
I was on Earth-2...
hunting down another breacher.
Wait, you were just on Earth-2?
Where?
In the African jungle,
where I saw...
Let me guess, a gorilla?
Super tall? Anger management issues?
Grodd must have taken control of her
and sent her here to kill us.
Yeah, but she's on a
different Earth than him,
and Grodd's telepathy can't
cross dimensions like that.
Grodd said he always thinks ahead.
Just like the Reverse-Flash.
He didn't have you to open a breach,
so he used Gypsy instead.
So that means...
Grodd's here.
Something tells me he's not alone.
Any sign of him yet?
Not since you asked 30 seconds ago.
Okay, he's a giant gorilla,
who's probably leading an
army of giant gorillas.
- How can you not find him?
- He's probably figured out a way
- to scramble our satellites.
- Satellites.
We're talking about a
genius super-ape here.
And a master strategist
who successfully fooled us on my Earth.
We Wellses, we don't fool
easy, do we, hard hat?
Don't call me "hard hat".
We have to find him before
he hurts somebody else.
Don't worry, Barry, we will.
Every time I think we've beat him,
he comes back stronger, smarter,
and more dangerous.
He's evolving.
I keep trying to fight him the same way.
Okay, guys, look, we
just have to come up
with a different way to beat him.
What we need to do is get
ahead of him for once.
We can. You've seen the future.
You know there's an attack.
If we just figure out where
that attack happens,
we can launch a preemptive
strike against Grodd.
We can stop the attack
before it ever starts.
And fortunately, we have someone
who can foresee future events.
Before they happen.
Okay, okay, there's only one problem.
I can only vibe what Barry saw,
and a ticker on the side of a bus stop
doesn't give us a whole lot of info.
What if we widen the scope of your vibe?
Then you can see more of the future.
Yes. I can do that.
Just need to borrow your vibe gear.
- Harry, that's my only pair.
- I'll be careful.
- It's my only pair.
- West, come with me.
- You have an engineer's mind.
- Yeah, sure.
Happy to help.
We're gonna need all
the help we can get.
Can you talk to Joe, see
if he can rally CCPD?
Yeah, yeah, I'll let him know that
an army of sentient gorillas
is about to storm the city.
- He's gonna love that.
- Yup.
What about Gypsy? She's
a really powerful meta.
Yeah, but how do we know she's
not a Grodd sleeper agent?
She's not. I checked her out.
Can you convince her to help?
Bro, she won't say no to me.
No way.
You've got three
speedsters, an ice queen,
and a guy who vibes
almost as well as I do.
You don't need my help to stop Grodd.
Need I remind you, you're the one
who brought Grodd here
in the first place.
Not by choice!
I was chasing a fugitive
from my world on Earth-2
when Grodd ambushed me
and turned me into his damn puppet.
Okay, so then this is
the perfect opportunity
for payback, right?
Don't tell me you're gonna
run away from this.
I never run.
Then stand and fight with us.
We need you.
You need me?
Are you trying to Luke Starkiller me?
What if I am?
Is that what it's gonna
take to get you to stay?
Here's a bonus, you get to spend
extra time with this face.
And look at this face. Come on.
Who doesn't want to get to spend
extra time with this guy?
What?
The things I saw,
when Grodd was in control of my mind,
the horrors in that monster's head,
I can never un-see them.
What horrors?
The city in ruins.
People in pain. Death everywhere.
That's what Grodd wants,
what he's planning.
I'm sorry, Cisco.
This is your fight.
Not mine.
Now, if you don't mind,
I still have a fugitive to catch, so...
Okay.
I understand.
Take care of yourself, Cisco.
Admit it.
You are so into me.
West.
How are we coming along with that gear?
I've made all the
adjustments you asked for,
so we should be good to go.
Good. Thank you.
Yeah.
Great.
Um, how exactly is this gonna
help Cisco vibe any differently?
Ah, simple science.
We just broaden the overall
harmonic resonance
of Cisco's vibrational frequencies
all while focusing them on
a fixed temporal locus.
Couldn't be easier.
Yeah.
You know, I got to admit, Harry,
I was super surprised
at how cool you were
with Jesse staying on this Earth.
I thought, for sure, you
were gonna freak out
and throw something
or throw someone.
Well, my daughter's happiness
is of the utmost importance to me.
And you make her happy.
I'm gonna do everything in my
power to keep it that way.
I appreciate that, West.
I'm sure Jesse will too, after I'm...
gone.
We're gonna come visit
you on Earth-2 a bunch,
so you don't have to
worry about that, Harry.
Yeah, right.
Uh, well, means the world to me,
seeing as I don't know how
much time I have left.
Wait, y-you're sick?
I'm not as well as I once was.
Have you seen a doctor?
Yes.
I have seen a doctor, West.
Is it serious?
Oh, man, Harry.
Man. Um...
- I'm sorry.
- Me too.
Does Jesse know?
Appreciate you keep this between... us.
She doesn't know, and we
wouldn't want to upset her.
Hey, SWAT's ready to
roll whenever y'all are.
We find Grodd yet?
We're about to.
Cisco, you ready?
Harry, this thing, if
it fries my brain...
"It's an improvement."
- Was that "Rocky"?
- Yeah, Burgess Meredith.
Yeah, I'm ready.
Word of warning. Vibing blind,
it's like surfing a monster wave.
You need to stay above
the temporal flow,
otherwise your consciousness
can get sucked under.
And then what happens?
I don't know.
Guess we'll find out.
Wait, what?
Where are you, Ramon? What do you see?
I'm at an intersection.
State and Oakhill.
I think this is where it goes down.
That's a block away from the bridge.
That leads right to the heart of town.
If those gorillas get
over that bridge...
They'll overrun the city in no time.
Not if we stop them first.
Eyes wide, everybody.
Grodd's army could be here
any second, all right?
There's no sign of them.
You sure this is the right place?
According to Cisco, this is it.
Was it the right time?
We're too early.
No, Flash.
Too late.
- Grodd.
- I remember,
this human is important to you.
Now...
he's all mine.
No! Hey!
Do not hurt him. I'm the one you want!
- Right?
- I warned you, Flash.
And now I'm here on First Earth
to make good on my promise.
And when I'm finished, this city
and all the puny humans
will die.
No!
Joe!
Are you okay?
I think so.
I don't get it.
How is attacking Detective Joe West
a part of Grodd's plan?
- It wasn't.
- Then what was it?
A distraction.
I don't care if Senator
Ford is having doubts.
If the secretary doesn't
approve that budget
first thing in the morning, we're gonna
have to make some serious cuts...
The hell was that?
That damn gorilla almost
got me this time.
Shouldn't even have a scar.
Do you remember anything
from when Grodd was controlling you?
Not really. Just some flashes.
Flashes of what?
They were, like, these images...
places I've never seen before.
It was like I was seeing
what he was seeing.
Gypsy said the same thing.
Uh-oh, here we go. I know that look.
That's the "I have a genius idea" look.
A couple years back on my Earth,
there was a neuroscientist
that was able to achieve memory recovery
using transcranial magnetic
simulators on brain-damaged...
We use that here but more
as a depression treatment.
Well, in this experiment,
the neuroscientist
focused all the energy
on the occipital cortex
of the patients,
allowing them to achieve
almost full memory recollection.
So you think the
connection Grodd creates
in the brains of those he mind-controls
goes both ways?
Could be.
Maybe we could use Grodd's memories
that he left behind in Joe to
figure out what his plan is.
We'd just make some TCM simulators.
- All it takes is some...
- Magnets.
Throw together some magnets,
make a helmet out of 'em.
Hold on. Y'all want to
put a bunch of magnets
against my skull to look into the mind
of a psychotic, murderous ape?
Yeah.
Fine.
Let's make it happen,
before Grodd tries to
kill somebody else.
It's gonna be okay.
Hey.
Is everything okay?
Just tired of seeing the
people I care about
be put in harm's way.
Yeah, but like always,
we're gonna work together
and come up with a plan.
We're gonna stop Grodd, Barry.
And then what?
We just send him back?
He's just gonna come her again.
We have to end this once and for all.
Wait. What?
You want to kill Grodd?
Why not?
That's how their society
in Gorilla City works...
Kill or be killed.
That's why he wanted me to kill Solovar.
And you know what? I should have.
I showed too much mercy.
No, you did what was right, Barry,
as you always do.
That's what makes you a hero.
Oliver has killed.
He's still considered a hero.
Yeah, and he lives with the
weight of that decision
every single day.
I think that sometimes,
the only way to stop
bad things from happening
is to just get rid of
what's causing them.
What is this really about?
Grodd or what happens to me?
I kill Grodd, his attack never happens,
that changes the future, and...
you live, yeah.
Your humanity, showing mercy,
that is what separates
you from everyone else.
That's the reason that
everyone looks up to you.
Don't compromise who you are...
ever.
Losing what makes The Flash The Flash...
My life isn't worth it if
that's the cost to save me.
There you are.
Hey, you know your dad's
gonna be all right.
What's wrong?
Look, I've been thinking, and I...
I don't think you should stay here.
I think... It was a bad idea.
Um...
Wally, you asked me.
Yeah, and I shouldn't have.
I think you should go back to Earth-2...
spend as much time with
your dad as you can.
Spend as much time with my dad as I can?
Wally, what are you talking about?
Your dad is sick, Jesse.
He's really sick.
He doesn't have much time left.
Did he tell you that?
I'm so sorry.
He is...
unbelievable.
So all you have to do is concentrate
on your memories of Grodd, okay?
Yeah, that won't be a problem.
All right.
Hey, dead man.
- Seriously?
- Hm?
You told Wally you were dying?
- Dying?
- You're dying?
I didn't say I was, uh...
I-I said I didn't know how
much time I had left.
- None of us...
- Okay, what is wrong with you?
- Um...
- Is there seriously nothing
you won't say to get me
to stay by your side?
- I don't...
- Look, whatever.
I'm moving here, whether
you like it or not.
So all you have to do is concentrate
- on your memories of Grodd.
- Yeah.
- You ready?
- Waiting on you, dead man.
Mm-hmm.
Hey, if I start to Grodd
out at any point,
cut the power off immediately.
Of course.
All right, Joe, you ready?
- Yeah.
- All right, then.
So here...
we...
go.
Joe?
I didn't know he could draw.
Well, that's the thing.
Anybody can actually draw.
It's just that some have
more developed visual cortex
and manual ability, as you know.
And right now, these magnets are
taking that part of his brain
and lightin' it up.
Well, it worked.
Now we have a new problem.
We have to figure out
who the hell this is.
Good evening, General.
Color and number of the day.
Purple 246.
Are you all right, sir?
Sick.
Good.
General.
Great.
Yo, Rocky.
How you doin'?
Yeah, I'm fine. I just...
No matter what I do to stop Grodd,
he just keeps finding
new ways to attack,
new ways to destroy, and I...
Iris doesn't think I should,
but the only way this
ends is if I kill him.
Kill him.
That might be the most idiotic thing
I've ever heard you say.
- Wait, what?
- Iris is right.
If you don't want to listen, go ahead,
keep being an idiot.
I don't understand.
Don't. Kill. Grodd.
Harry, you of all people
should understand.
I mean, you would have
killed to save Jesse.
You were gonna kill Zoom.
Barry, there's a thousand things
I've done that I'm not proud of.
Some of them recently.
Every time I do one of those things,
it makes it easier to
do it the next time.
I look at you, out there
battling the darkness,
with honor and hope, and I'm reminded
there's always another way,
always.
Killing Grodd is not your answer.
Saving one life doesn't
justify taking another.
Find the other way.
Guys.
We need you in the cortex.
What's up, Cisco?
We've got a behemoth of a problem.
Terrific.
So we ran our John Doe image
through every database.
And it was tough. I mean,
the guy's a ghost.
We've been calling him Jason Bourne.
But then H.R. noticed something.
Well, at first, it was
a real brain-twister,
but then I remembered a quote
from a renowned poet from my
Earth, Alfred Yankovic...
Are you talking about Weird Al?
Why? 'Cause of the hair?
Get to the point already,
if you have one.
I can, hard hat. It's his hair.
Standard military cut.
So we ran the image through
the Department of Defense database,
and, as Cisco would say, "Yahtzee."
I would say that.
Nice work, H.R.
I know.
DoD has him listed as
Air Force General Matthew McNally.
General Matthew McNally, and
I'll give you one guess...
Just guess... What he's in charge of.
I know you're gonna
say military weapons,
but I really hope you don't
say military weapons.
It's worse, Barr.
Nuclear missiles.
McNally has the highest clearance.
He can have a rocket in the
air in less than ten minutes.
So are the satellites
back to functional?
We ran a full diagnostic.
Any nuclear weapon that's
authorized to fire,
- an alarm will sound.
- Okay, good.
Does it sound like that?
That's an alarm.
Yeah, it's that alarm, H.R.
Okay.
Short-range ballistic missile
authorized to fire from Fort Reynolds.
How much time do we have?
Minutes.
Grodd, what have you done?
Can we stop it from here?
Military weapons are basically analog.
I mean, they still use floppy disks.
I'm going after it.
Guys, no, look, I appreciate it,
but I need you to stay here, okay?
If I can't stop it,
I need you to get everybody
to safety, okay?
_
All right, I'm with the missile.
Barry, to access the
keypad, remove the panel
at the base of the missile vehicle.
All right.
All right, that's done. What's next?
Well, the good news is, this missile
has a built-in five-digit kill code.
Great. What is it?
That's the bad news. We don't know.
For real? Ah, well, then
what am I supposed to do?
You have to try every
combination, Barry.
It's okay, with this type of launcher,
you won't set off the nuke.
Barry, simulators are projecting
that hundreds of thousands will die.
Yeah, let's hope not.
Come on.
Five digits. How many combos is that?
- I'm guessing it's about...
- Precisely 90,000,
which you would know
if you weren't a moron
and you were an actual genius.
Two missiles are locked on target.
Guys, we need something
else. This isn't working.
Plan B, anyone?
Work!
How much time does he have?
15 seconds.
Guys, I need something!
This isn't working!
Something else!
You just got to keep going, Barry.
You just... just got to keep trying.
Six missiles are locked on target.
It worked.
It worked! We did it!
We did it!
Oh, thank God.
Flash stopped the weapon.
But he can't stop us all.
Attack!
Found them.
They're right outside the city.
Heading for State and Oakhill, fast.
Which leads right into downtown.
- All right, so what do we do?
- Barry, I know we're
speedsters and everything, but
we are way outnumbered here.
Yeah, I mean, he's right,
how are the three of us
gonna take on all those gorillas?
We have to.
As much as I hate these gorillas,
especially Grodd, if you kill him,
the other ones might stand down,
but you might not be able to
come back from this, Barry.
- You know that, right?
- I know.
But there's another way.
It's not gonna come to that.
Cisco, I'm gonna need your help.
Tracked her down on Earth-2.
Breach is taken care of.
Thank you.
Risky move coming to an Earth
where interdimensional travel
is punishable by death.
Especially when I'm the one
who's supposed to uphold that law.
I need to talk to you.
I don't do long-distance relationships.
Don't get me wrong, this is something
I'd love to talk about in more detail,
especially if distance
is your only hesitation.
But I'm here to talk about Grodd.
Okay, I see you don't
take no for an answer.
Gypsy, please.
He's gonna destroy my city.
And he's gonna hurt the people I love.
I told you before,
that's not my problem.
Look, just go back to Earth-1
before someone sees you
and I have to do something
that I don't want to.
You know, you told me I could
do things with my powers
I'd never even imagined,
and you're right,
'cause I'm not just
vibing people anymore.
I'm vibing what they feel.
And you know what I'm getting from you,
right here, right now?
You're more than this. You're like me.
You want to do something good.
Look, we need something to stop Grodd,
and I'm gonna need your help getting it.
Please, be the hero I
know you want to be.
Wells, how long do we have?
Two minutes, Barry.
Two minutes? Ten seconds!
Can you not even tell time?
That's what I said. Ten seconds.
So got any pointers on
how the three of us
are gonna save everyone and
stop a few hundred gorillas?
Go for the legs?
Just try not to get caught,
'cause, trust me, they won't let go.
Well, that was not the
start we're looking for.
Because...
How long do they have to last?
Hopefully not much longer.
Your city will fall, Flash.
There's only one way to end this.
You kill me.
But you won't do that.
All you care about is mercy.
Yeah, you're right.
Except I'm not the only one
that wants to stop you.
Solovar!
I challenge you, Grodd!
And you will fall again!
Good-bye, Grodd.
Stop! Stop...
Death isn't the way.
He betrayed me.
I know, so leave him
here, where he's from.
We won't let him go back to
Gorilla City ever again.
Just spare his life,
like I spared yours.
Send us home...
all of us.
How long is it gonna take
to put 100 gorillas through a breach?
We're gonna be here all night.
You know what I ought to do?
Whip us up some cappuccino...
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!
All the gorillas are back on Earth-2.
And Grodd?
I called Lyla. He's with A.R.G.U.S.
Good. I don't know about y'all,
but I don't ever need to see
a super-smart, telepathic gorilla again.
I'm with you.
Not that Grodd didn't have
some justification for
mistrusting humans.
Whatever good was in Grodd is gone.
As far as I'm concerned,
they can throw him
in the same cage as King Shark.
Mm, I'd pay money to see that fight.
All right, well, if the city
doesn't need my help anymore,
I'm gonna head back to Earth-19.
Oh, really?
So you did all this for the city, huh?
'Cause I'm pretty sure
there's a different reason
you chose to help us.
That's right, I was the only one
who knew where Solovar was.
Oh, right, yeah.
How could I forget?
- Mm.
- Don't front.
You're into me.
Look, Cisco, I mean,
even if I was...
You couldn't handle me.
Bye, guys.
- Bye.
- Mm-hmm.
I'll marry that woman.
Yeah.
Okay, I better get this story
in before I lose my job.
Okay.
You sure you still don't
want to look into the future
and see what's changed?
No.
Think I'm done with that.
- Good.
- I'll see you at home.
Okay.
Hey, I'll walk out with you.
I got a date with Cecile.
Oh.
Come on, guys. Let's go find Harry.
To review, this is my daughter.
There's nothing more important to me.
So you do right by my daughter,
or there is nowhere in the multiverse
I won't find you.
Dad.
They'd have to kill me.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye, Jesse Quick.
Always another way, Flash.
Always.
Babe?
Is that Grandma Esther's noodles?
Mm-hmm.
And there's mint chocolate
chip in the freezer.
And these are for you.
What is all this?
I've been really busy recently with...
trying to avoid the future.
And I forgot that there's
always another way.
What is that?
Making the future...
our future.
My great-grandfather gave
this to my great-grandmother
after World War II.
He wanted to propose
before he was shipped out,
but he... he didn't have the money.
And he bought this three years later
when he was stationed in London.
Fought his way across France,
all the way to Berlin,
and this ring...
around his neck with his dog tags.
And when he got back, she was
waiting for him on the dock
of the Brooklyn Navy Yards.
He proposed on the spot.
After my mom passed away,
Joe held on to this for me...
until tonight.
- Barry...
- Iris West,
will you marry me?
Inside of us, we both know
you belong with Victor.
You're part of his work, the
thing that keeps him going.
If that plane leaves...
Okay, I'm so confused.
Is it supposed to be about
the War of the Americas?
Do you not like it? 'Cause
this is my favorite movie.
No, no, I didn't say that. Um...
I guess we just have
more wars on my Earth.
Well, we can just watch something else.
Or we don't have to
watch anything at all.
Mm.
You know what I could go for?
Big Belly Burger.
Wow!
Wow, ow.
Um, I'll be right back.
Thank you.
