Cisco Ramon quotes from The Flash

Ralph

Chapter one: "Initial Planning".

Cisco

Initial planning? It's a first date, Sun Tzu, not an incursion.

Ralph

Trust me, Grasshopper. Love is war.

Nora

I keep trying my absolute hardest to change the outcome, but I end up failing every time. What if we can't fix this, Cisco?

Cisco

Nora, sometimes we fail because... all we can worry about is not failing. I'm so worried about my first date since Cynthia that I don't feel free to be myself around Kamilla, and then I'll just end up screwing it up even more. This, this "Intelligence and Reconnaissance" mess? I don't need this. All I need is to be myself. Duh.

Caitlin

We oughta talk.

Cisco

Don't you know you shouldn't interrupt others while they're brooding? I'm trying to get my Oliver Queen on here.

Cisco

You know, I have a bit of experience with these, uh, long-distance relationships. I got one word for you: holocube. [presents a holocube] These things work–

Sherloque

I must request that you stop speaking. Possibly forever.

Ralph

Nora, where would you find this hyper-conduit in 2049?

Nora

Probably Ollins Laboratory. Ollins won a Nobel Prize for quantum engineering.

Cisco

Ollins? As in Sebastian Ollins?

Nora

Yeah. Do you know him? He is a true genius.

Cisco

[scoffs] A genius, you say. The guy couldn't even stay awake through a single physics lecture. In fact, I'm pretty sure if it wasn't for his very smart, very considerate college roommate lending him notes, helping him study, he wouldn't have made it through his finals! Nobel Prize, my ASS!!

Barry

Yeah, he knows him.

Barry

[regarding the speedster trap] Man, this thing brings back memories.

Ralph

Good ones? Bad ones?

Barry

Thawne ones. We trapped the Reverse-Flash in this thing before we even knew he was Thawne.

Cisco

Well, we actually ended up trapping his speed mirage, while his real self just sat there chilling in his wheelchair.

Ralph

Man, Thawne's plans got plans.

Cisco

[on how to revive an injured Ralph] We blast him ?!

Sherloque

Yes, you blast him. Like, the vibrational jolt, it will be more than enough to [snaps his fingers] kick-start his consciousness, I'm sure of it.

Cisco

Can't we just play some Gaga and hope he wakes up?

Cisco

You're looking at the world's first inverse mass angular momentum disruptor, but we can just call it a stellar grenade.

Barry

Cool. So this will destroy the black hole?

Cisco

As long as it doesn't get much bigger, this will reverse the hole's mass-collecting properties, causing it to... [sucks air] Implode. Just toss it into the event horizon, hasta la lasagna, don't any on you.

Cisco

That's it. [hits the computer space bar] I've been saving this for the right moment since day one.

Iris

Really, Cisco?

Cisco

The guy's running in and out of a black hole!

Iris

[a beat] .... Good point.

Cisco

Yeah.

Cisco

What are you doing on our Earth?

What am I doing? I'm searching for an artifact that happens to contain the same particles... I'm currently reading off you.

Iris

What?

Although...

Cisco

What - what part - particles of what?

Eternium.

Cisco

Eternium?

Eternium's a Multiversal element, all right? Although the readings were stronger in the alley.

Cisco

Listen, Indiana, I don't know how you do things on your Earth, but this ain't "Temple of Doom." And what is Eternium supposed to be, anyway? Some kind of stolen mystical element from the tiki gods that you suddenly have to return?

Look, there's no such thing as mystical mumbo jumbo or gods. What there are are meta-humans, aliens, and false gods worshiped by simple-minded people that find comfort in myths. I dispel those myths. You people are no help.

Cisco

The Monitor? Where did you see him?

Barry

We went in the Time Vault, right after putting Chester in the MAC. The Crisis that he spoke about last year, it's the same one in the plinth's newspaper. And it's not coming in 2024. It's coming December 10... 2019.

Ralph

Are you sure about this?

The jackass lied to you.

Iris

Yeah, well, we thought so, too, but... Barry went to Earth-3 and Jay Garrick helped him see that it was true.

Cisco

How did he do that?

Barry

Jay projected my mind forward into the future.

Cisco

Okay. And what did you see?

Barry

I saw a giant wave of antimatter sweeping over our Earth. Vaporized all of Central City and everybody in it. Including you three.

Great. I'll go mark my calendar.

Barry

We still have seven weeks to make sure none of this happens.

Iris

Guys, Barry's right. We've changed the future before. We can change it again.

Ralph

So what else did our Asgardian cosplayer say?

Barry

That was pretty much it.

Barry

What are you talking about? What the hell are you doing?

Cisco

I'm saving your life. 'Cause someone has to do it.

Barry

Saving Ramsey... Saving Ramsey's my call.

Cisco

And it's a bad call.

Barry

But it's one I made. Sometimes, as a leader, you have to make tough calls in order to serve the greater good.

Cisco

You know, I made a tough call. And I made it for you.

Barry

But I told you. You can't save me.

Cisco

I'm not buying that!

Barry

Well, you have to. Sacrificing myself saves everything and everyone. I've seen it.

Cisco

And what does that give me to look forward to? Waking up to a world without the Flash? A light without my best friend?

Barry

You get to live. You all get to live.

Cisco

Don't.

Barry

Look, man, I... I've been dealing this for weeks. Wondering what's gonna happen when I'm gone, how everybody's gonna move on. That's why I wanted us, you and me together, to save Ramsey today.

Cisco

You wanted us to save a random person so I'd be okay with you dying?

Barry

No. I wanted us to save one person's life so you could understand the tough calls... the sacrifices that a leader has to make. Because you're my pick. You the person I want to run S.T.A.R. Labs and this team when I'm gone.

Ralph

Okay, computer, what's Barry's favorite movie?

Barry

Empire.

Ralph

Oh, thank God.

Barry

Actually... I loved, loved Empire Strikes Back my whole life, but... now that I think about it... oh, my God. My favorite movie is Jurassic Park.

Cisco

There it is.

Barry

How does it do that?

Cisco

Fuzzy logic, and AI intuition, my guy. With the B.A.R.I. by my side, it'll be like you never left.

Kamilla

You need time to rest that sexy brain of yours.

Cisco

My brain is the Ryan Gosling of genius intellects.

Cisco

Me being like this, I don't want you to think I'm still hung up over Cynthia or something.

Kamilla

Cisco, someone you cared about died. I'd be worried if you weren't sad.
