We'd make a fortune. An improv group made up of superheroes. We can take it to Washington. We'd be the "D.C. Comics".
No, Ralph.
First rule of improv is say "Yes".
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
[Breacher, Gypsy's father, suddenly appears from a warp, grabs Cisco by the throat and pins him to a wall.]
I need your help!
[strangled voice] Little bit of a mixed message here.
[Barry is floating helplessly inside the Cortex room due to Null's gravity-manipulation power.]
Babe, you okay?
I just wanna get down from here as soon as possible.
Maybe you should try to burp yourself down like Charlie Bucket.
Ralph...
[to Caitlin] Anything?
Well, as best I can tell, Null's powers affect the density of his cells. It's like you've been filled with helium.
Terrific.
Always knew you were a lightweight.
I swear, Ralph–
You were great out there tonight, man.
Thank you. I had a lot of help. And, I had a great teacher.
You helped me realize that I can't always take everything so seriously. Even when it comes to Thinker.
Wait a second. Are you telling me that I, Ralph Dibny, taught Barry Allen, superhero extraordinaire, a lesson? What could this mean?
It means you're a great hero. And you make this team better by being on it.
[mock deep voice] Ah, the circle is now complete. When I came here, I was but the learner. Now I am the master.
It's also good to be humble.
But how can I be humble [expands his chest with his power] when I am swollen with pride?
I went back to my Earth, saw my reflection in my knife. I saw an older man.
I'm curious, have you never looked in a mirror before?
I'm not a teenage girl!
Okay, you're not a teenage girl.
But I realized, time to hang up my coat. [Referencing the Hawaiian shirt he's wearing] This is my new uniform, like it?
Yeah, retirement suits you. So, what do you do with all this time?
There's a dragon farm on Earth-47 that I've always wanted to visit.
A dragon farm? Okay, get your Khaleesi on.
I'm not a Khaleesi!
Okay, you're not a Khaleesi.
But, I just wanted to tell you Ciscy, goodbye forever. [turns to go] Oh, wait! Just one more thing. Now that I've retired, there's an opening at the Collection Agency. I would like you to replace me.
Wait, I'm confused.
You want to see my daughter more. Work with her! Together, you and Cynthia could be an unstoppable duo. So what do you say, Vibe? Do you want to be the new Breacher?
I've got something! My Big Belly punch-card, only 5 away from a free kid's meal. If I even live long enough to use it.
Hey, don't even joke like that. We're gonna get DeVoe, throw him in the Pipeline long before he gets to you.
Right. That doesn't work, we'll just, uh,... take him out the other way.
What other way?
Ah, we'll put him to bed with a shovel. Give him his harp and wings. Send him to visit Grandma Thinker in the sky.
[alarmed] Ralph, you think we're gonna kill DeVoe?
The way that you're saying that makes me think I'm supposed to say "no".
[Harry is demonstrating a new weapon to use against DeVoe]
One strike incapacitates the Thinker. Two strikes... no more Thinker. I call it "Sonic Scepter".
Okay. Points for alliteration.
I know what killing DeVoe would do to you. You would be throwing away everything you've done to become a better man. To become a hero. You gotta realize that.
You... are a moron.
Ralph–
[voice shaking] I'm not afraid of DeVoe or what he might do to me. I am afraid of what he might do to you, and Iris, and Caitlin, and Cisco. Joe, Harry, Cecile. DeVoe has taken out everyone who has gotten in his way. And Team Flash, it will always be in his way.
[realizing] This was never about protecting yourself.
I know that killing DeVoe would mean throwing away everything I've done to become a hero. But aside from my mom, this team is the only family that I have ever had, and I would throw myself into a furnace to keep them safe. DeVoe can not have them. They are mine!
What about what we want? You may not care about losing who you've become, but we do. We like Hero Ralph. Please don't take him away from us.
Heard all the commotion and I thought "If DeVoe was here... where would he be going?"
Hmm. A simple deduction for a simple mind. Though I assure you, you are no threat for an intellect of my magnitude.
Please, everyone I fight is smarter than me.
[Barry has been incapacitated as DeVoe prepares to possess Ralph]
Ralph! Fight it, all right?! Fight it! I'll save you!
You already did, Barry. [dies as DeVoe's mind takes over his body]
LSLeo Snart of Earth-X
All right. You get me for twenty-four hours. Not a minute more.
Wait. Why not?
Because I thought I'd make Ray an honest man. [indicates his ring finger] Tomorrow.
[Each member of Team Flash offers Leo congratulations.]
[puts his hands on Barry and Cisco's shoulders] I figured if you two could make it, so could we.
BCBarry and Cisco
What?
[points to her and Barry] No, we–
I tease.
Do you know how many rebels we lost over the years, Barry, trying to defeat those Nazi bastards?
Countless, I'm sure.
Not countless. Counted. Eighteen thousand, three hundred twenty-two. Three thousand, six hundred and seventy-nine were under my watch. And I felt the weight of each of their deaths. I still do, some years after they died.
Leo, look, I–
The thing I realized is that to continue to lead, to be clear-headed, I had to grieve those men and women I lost. So I did. Each and every one... Look, Barry, you want me to help you move a meta-human nuclear bomb that some genius with nearly every meta-power on this board is after. I will do what I can, as long as your head is on straight. Because if I die before Ray and I get married, Ray will kill me.
[Team Flash prepares to transport Neil Borman.]
All right, let's just go over the plan one more time, okay? I'm going to be running ahead of the truck, scouting the route for any signs of trouble.
Right. I will be at S.T.A.R. Labs tracking any pocket dimension en route.
And I'll be in the truck with Neil monitoring his vitals en route.
With me at the ready, in case our meta-of-mass-destruction here goes all mushroom cloud. No offense.
And I'll be driving. And reciting every prayer that Cecile's ever taught me.
I might join you.
Every event occurred exactly as I predicted. Except the outcome!!
You were supposed to defeat Siren-X.
No. The Flash was, but... Barry Allen just stood there, frozen. And now, I've lost my only nuclear meta. Because the Flash failed! Why? Why did he fail?
Perhaps there were variables that we just didn't consider.
As I already explained, there is no variable beyond my examination.
Even less apparent. The last time Barry Allen saw you, you took the life of his close friend. And now he sees you, and he pauses. You really don't see it. You can calculate near-infinite outcomes across multiple Earths, but you cannot account for how someone is feeling.
We're gonna miss you, Leo.
I'll miss you, too, Caitlin. You're quite the badass, you know? Enough to make your alter ego proud.
Thank you.
Detective West, I know my Earth-1 counterpart gave you a lot of headaches. Hopefully, I've begun to make up for that.
Man, you prevented a nuke from leveling this city. [shakes Leo's hand] We're good.
Cisco. I'm really gonna miss that hair.
[laughs nervously and touches his hair] Okay.
Iris West-Allen. Thank you for helping me take down Nazi scum. Again.
You're welcome. Again.
And then there was one. I can see why the other Snart turned over a new leaf and joined the good guys. You treat everyone around you with kindness and respect. Just remember to do the same for yourself. Every once in a while.
Thanks for helping me push through.
Any time, Barry. [embraces Barry]
