I promise I'll never be late again.
My best friend is always saying that and he is always late.
You're worth being on time for.

I promise I'll never be late again.
My best friend is always saying that and he is always late.
You're worth being on time for.
Subject has made a great leap forward, causing me to revise my initial thesis. I thought...I thought his attachment to people was a distraction, now I realize the opposite is true. Barry's attachment to people, the people he cares about, is actually key to getting him up to speed.
Last month you took on a man named Leonard Snart.
We call him Captain Cold.
We can talk about you giving your enemies silly code names later.
You mean like over coffee with Deathstroke and the Huntress?
There's a difference, Barry, between having powers and having precision.
When I came here thinking about going out helping people, you said I could be an inspiration.
Living this life... well, it takes more than a mask. It takes discipline. And since you are probably as stubborn as I am... [Oliver brings out his bow and arrow]
What is that for?
You're going to run over there, you're gonna come back at me, and you're going to get hit with an arrow.
[laughs] No, I'm not.
Yes, you are.
Okay. Fine. I will humor you. [runs up the field]
Ready?
Ready.
[Oliver fires an arrow at Barry, he runs towards Oliver and catches it]
Nice try. [hidden arrows behind Barry strike him in his back] Gah! Ah! What, you shot me?
I heard you heal fast. [Oliver pulls the arrows out of Barry's back]
How did it go with Oliver?
You know, to be honest, not exactly the partnership I thought it would be.
Did he really do the thing with the arrows?
[exasperated] You knew he was gonna shoot me?
Well, it is practically impossible to tell when Oliver's making a joke.
Barry has super powers. Oliver has a bow and arrow.
Do you have any idea how many people Oliver has killed with that bow and arrow?
Recurve bow arrows can travel up to 300 feet per second, so, like, 200 miles an hour. Barry can run three times that fast.
Whatever. Oliver's been doing this a lot longer. My money's on experience.
My money's on speed.
Please tell me you're not actually having this conversation right now.
There's one more thing and you're not going to like it.
Does it involve you shooting me in the back?
No. No, the heart. [nods over at Iris] That's not going to work out for you. And you need to let her go, for both of your sakes. [Oliver and Barry look over at Felicity and Iris. Oliver turns back.] Guys like us don't get the girl.
Who are you?
You know who I am, Barry.
I don't know who you are.
But you do, Barry. We've been at this a long time, you and I, but I'm always one step ahead. It is your destiny to lose to me, Flash, just as it was your mother's destiny to die that night.
The witness described seeing a yellow blur. Just like the one that killed Barry's mother.
Then we need to get cracking and stop this speed psycho. That - I wasn't trying to give him a name.
Not fast enough, Flash.
There's only two boxes left.
You know, at this rate, we'll be finished by Easter.
Don't even... [Barry decorates the Christmas tree in super-speed] Okay, the only red-suited dude I want in this house right now is Kris Kringle, you got it?
And the Flash. Do you know who he is?
Yeah, I do. He's the guy that saved both of our lives tonight.
My name is Barry Allen. I am not the fastest man alive. That title belongs to the man who killed my mother. But not for long.
Very impressive, Mr. Allen. Your reaction to stimuli at super speed continues to improve.
It's still not enough.
It will be. You keep working like you are, you stay focused like you are, and you will be ready the next time the man in the yellow suit comes around.
I think you mean the Reverse-Flash. What? He said it, not me. And he's right. Yellow suit, red lighting, and evil - the reverse of Barry.
Meh.
Actually, I kind of like it.
This is what we came for.
That's worth money.
It's called Fire and Ice. An abstract modern day masterpiece said to represent the dichotomy of being.
It represents to me that people with lots of money buy dumb stuff.
