[speaking through Ronnie's body] This body's taste buds would obviously be different from my own. Perhaps I'm now a light beer man.
There are worse things to be.
You mean like a living nuclear bomb?
You know.
Unstable nuclear fission was always a danger in the transmutation process. Plus, you all argue very loudly.
[speaking through Ronnie's body] You know, Einstein was not only brilliant, he had a great sense of humor. How did it go? "Any man who drives safely while kissing a pretty girl is not giving the pretty girl the attention she deserves." If I learned anything this past year, life's too short not to live.
Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta - all your brain waves are perfectly in sync. The chances of that happening are next to impossible.
Impossible is just another Tuesday for us, remember?
Yeah, but this is like some Twilight Zone level stuff. And I say that knowing full well that we have a guy locked up in our basement who can turn himself into poison gas.
Wait, really?
Dude, that was like week three.
Hey? You gonna miss being able to fly?
Yeah, maybe if I was the one holding the controller.
Meaning?
Meaning you weren't the most conscientiousness body-mate.
So you do not consider keeping you alive to be conscientiousness?
Alive? We were living under a bridge eating garbage.
I did not determine that it would be my mind that would dominate our existence, but thank God it was. I could feel your fear and panic, emotions that could have gotten us killed in that state.
You kept me buried down. You kept me from her.
Which is likely why she's still alive. Now I believe that you and I have spent quite enough time together.
You need to hurry, Barry's wounds are starting to heal with the fragments still under his skin.
This is just like the time I stepped on a sea urchin. Only much worse.
Just don't pee on me.
Uh, you know that's a myth, right?
I had Ronnie, and then I lost him. Then I found him again, but he wasn't actually Ronnie. Then I got him back but just for a day until I lost him again.
You guys are like 10 seasons of Ross and Rachel, but just, like, smushed into one year.
[Reverse-Flash unmasks in front of Eiling, revealing himself to be Harrison Wells.]
Harrison... You're one of them. A meta-human.
Yes, I am. And I protect my own.
[a growl is heard in the sewer]
What was that?
Now, that... is an old friend of ours.
General...
That... voice... It's in my head. Dear God.
Not God. Grodd. [attacks Eiling]
While I am more than happy to spend an evening watching old movies with you, Cisco, do you not have your brother's dinner to attend?
Yeah. I was gonna ask Caitlin to come with me, but then I got a much better idea.
Which was?
To not go at all.
So Clyde Mardon has a brother?
And both brothers survived the plane crash, and then the dark matter released from the particle accelerator explosion affects them both in virtually the same way.
Yeah, only Mark's power seem to be a lot more precise. To be able to control the weather like that, indoors?
You'd have to be a Weather Wizard. Ooh, I've been waiting since week one to use that one.
Actually, you know, I could use some advice.
About what?
Uh, you know, just relationship stuff.
Oh, you mean, like, that girl, Linda?
No, actually. With Iris. Things between us have gotten a little complicated... again.
[laughs] You're asking your adopted father for advice about being in love with his daughter, who just happened to be dating his partner?
I know, I know.
Things have gone way past complicated.
You're incredibly clever, Cisco. I've always said so.
You're him. The Reverse-Flash.
You and I haven't been truly, properly introduced. I am Eobard Thawne.
Thawne? Like Eddie.
Let's call him a distant relative.
The night that we trapped the Reverse-Flash, you almost died. There were two of you.
[Wells uses his speed powers to create two images of himself.]
It's an after-image. A speed mirage, if you will.
Joe was right. You were there that night, 15 years ago, in Barry's house. You killed Nora Allen.
It was never my intention to kill Nora. I was there to kill Barry.
Why? You're his friend. You've been teaching him how to...
Go faster. I know. A means to an end. And I'll tell you why. Because I have been stuck here, marooned here, in this place for fif-teen long years. And the Flash, and the Flash's speed, is the key to my returning to my world. To my time. And no one is going to prevent that from happening.
I can help you.
You're smart, Cisco. [starts vibrating his hand] But you're not that smart. Do you know how hard it has been to keep all of this from you, especially from you? Because the truth is, I've grown quite fond of you. And in many ways, you have shown me what it's like to have a son. [thrusts his vibrating hand into Cisco's chest] Forgive me. But to me, you've been dead for centuries. [removes his hand, and Cisco falls to the floor dead.]
[to Iris] I am sorry. I didn't want you to find out this way. [changes into The Flash]
What if I came with you?
What? Seriously?
Absolutely. You've done so much for me. Let me be there for you for a change. And I can look at old family photo albums and see what little Cisco looks like without long hair.
I'm rescinding your invite.
You ruptured the time continuum, didn't you? You're experiencing temporal reversion.
Yeah!
How long?
Uh, a day and some change. It's like I'm living it all over again.
Yeah, well, that's good. That means there's not too much you could've messed up yet. How did this happen?
I-I don't know. I mean, I was running faster than I've ever ran, and the first time that I lived this day some really horrible things happened. There was a tidal wave and...
No. Do not tell me. I don't want to know anything about the future you experienced. Nothing!
Okay, but Dr. Wells, I...
Barry. Time is an extremely fragile construct. Any deviation, no matter how small, could result in a cataclysm. Now here's what you're going to do. Everything you did before. Every word you uttered, every step you took, you're going to do again. And you're not going to tell anyone this happened.
So when were you planning on telling me you took down Mardon?
I-I just haven't a chance yet.
You got sidetracked, you mean?
No, Joe, you can't be mad.
I'm not mad. But I'm curious. I mean, you were acting so weird at the crime scene.
I always act weird.
Okay. Weird-er
