[Barry has brought Iris to a new, empty apartment.]

I... I don't understand. Where are we?

Home.

What?

I couldn't sleep on Cisco's couch anymore, and your place is... sorta small for two. So I signed a lease and I put both of our names on it.

I got you a wallet.

I'm sure I'll love it.

Barry, this is a big step.

Not for me. [gives her a key and embraces her] I don't know what's gonna happen in the future. All I know is, right here, right now, I want to spend every moment I can with you. You're the first thing I want to see when I wake up, and the last thing I --

[Iris kisses Barry.]

I love you, Barry Allen.

I love you, Iris West.

New opening voiceover

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 metahumans 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.

Okay, well, remember, the best way to teach somebody something is to throw 'em in the deep end. That's how I taught you how to swim.

That was... I'm sill mad about that.

You can swim now, can't you?

...Yeah.

Did you ask Julian to join Team... Star Labs?

I know, he's an acquired taste, but–

Yeah, well he is Doctor Alchemy, the big bad's little bad.

Yeah, he gave Wally his powers.

That I don't mind.

Guys, I need his help. I'm sorry Cisco, but these cuffs, they aren't cutting it. Every night when I go to bed, I'm afraid that I'll wake up... be her. Maybe Julian can think of something that we haven't. [pause] Barry, when your mom was murdered, Joe and Iris, they took you in. Cisco, when Dante died, I slept on your couch to keep you company. The things we see, the things that we face, no one can do this alone. Trying is the biggest mistake that you can make.

Wally. What was that? I mean, you're supposed to be shadowing me.

Wh-wait, you're mad at me? I thought...

Observe and learn. That's it.

Whoa...

That's it!

Barr, ease up. Wally just saved your life.

I'm sorry, Wally, but if you can't learn to follow orders, this deal between us, it's over.

You all right?

I'm good, dude. You can have this one.

No, Wally, this one has to be you.

Why?

Because if you take down Plunder, the news report that says I captured him in the future, it's wrong. We can prove that we can alter the future here and now.

So that's why you sent me out here.

Hey, I sent you out here because you're a hero. Iris needs a hero now, Wally.

I asked myself to say a few words. On this occasion... a home, more than bricks and mortar, and a turtle. It's uh, it's a feeling. It's a feeling of belonging, isn't it? Of, of love, of course. Of hope, for the future. I don't know if I have ever met two people who are more suited to one another than you two. [raises his glass] To Barry and Iris.

[Cisco hits Gypsy's hand with a vibe wave after she shoots H.R. Caitlin rushes over to H.R.]

Where does it hurt?

Every. Where.

You can vibe? [pleased] Oh, I like it.

Slow down there. Let's just talk about this, like two adults. Over coffee. Or maybe dinner, if you prefer that. There's a great Thai place up the road if you like Thai. [offers to shake hands] I'm Cisco, by the way. You must be Gypsy. It's nice to meet you.

Are you asking her out on a date?

Are you kidding me?

I am negotiating!

By the laws of Earth 19, I hereby challenge you for possession of H.R. Wells! If you want, we could solve this another way. There's a great spot for drinks-

You realize trial by combat is to the death?

Yeah! For the loser. [Gypsy laughs] Listen, you want him? You have to come and claim him.

Hmm.

[turning around to Barry and H.R.] That's Arwen!

I take it you also want the customary 24 hours to prepare?

Do I want the customary-

Yes, you do.

I would love to take advantage of the customary 24 hours, if you don't mind.

Very well. One day.

One day.

See you then. [vibes open a portal and leaves]

She's gonna kill me, isn't she?

Okay, look, I know everyone is working really hard to prevent Savitar from...

... Yeah.

But honestly, these could be my last few months on Earth.

Could you not talk like that?

I'm just being realistic, Wally. I get to do that. Look, I want my life to mean something. More than just as a daughter or as a sister, or as a girlfriend. But as a reporter. This story can do that. It can say that I, Iris West, mattered.

You know, my life was a lot easier before I had a sister.

It's a lot better now, isn't it?

Oh. Hey. I'd be careful if I were you. Last thing we want is for me to touch a button and blow your head off, right? [laughs mockingly] 'Cause I don't know what I'm doing, right?

You know I don't think that.

Yeah, well, you have a very, very strange way of showing it.

You're right, man. I'm sorry. I don't know, I just... guess this whole "not getting faster" thing, it just has me rattled. I was always able to do it before, you know? I mean, against Reverse-Flash, and then against Zoom, but... Savitar's on a whole other level. And knowing what he'll do to Iris if I fail...

I'm afraid just thinking what's gonna happen to H.R. if I don't beat Gypsy. But you, you're the hero. I mean,... how do you handle all this pressure all the time?

By just leaning on all of you guys. You know, I mean you're always in my corner, helping me face my fears. And it is okay to be afraid, trust me. And when you are, I'll be there. In your corner.

[During their duel, Gypsy vibes her and Cisco to a planet of molten rock.]

Well, this is hot.

I think you're flirting with me to distract me 'cause you're afraid.

Ha. My collection record is flawless. In these trials, I am undefeated.

[laughs] Oh, please. Everybody's got a weakness. Even you.

[Gypsy throws Cisco back to Earth-1 and follows him.]

Says the man afraid of showing everyone how powerful he can be. You and I resonate on a similar frequency. I can feel it. Yet you allow your fear and insecurity to hold you back. That's why you're gonna lose.

So this is it. huh?

Yeah. This is the starting line to our race. Cisco set up sensors all along the course and he'll be tracking our speed all the way to the finish line on the other side of town.

No, I meant "This is it." You know, the day the greatest upset in speedster history goes down.

Wally. Man, this isn't about winning or losing, okay? This is about training. So you can get faster and beat Savitar and save Iris.

[serious] Yeah. Which I'm gonna do.

Okay.

[back to enthused] But first I'm gonna make you eat my dust, I'm sorry.

Okay, you know there is a reason they call me "The Fastest Man Alive".

[Caitlin and Julian prepare to do an autopsy on a metahuman's murder victim.]

What's his name?

Doesn't really matter much now, does it?

Of course. I should call him by his name. After everything he's been through, he deserves that much respect.

He is a corpse. Thus impervious to such bedside manners.

Well, thank goodness, 'cause I'd hate to have to subject him to yours.

[Training to phase through matter, Wally crashes into a wall at super-speed.]

That hurt like...

Like you ran into a giant wooden wall, 'cause you did.
