You promised. You promised her that you would be there for Joe.
You don't understand.
"I don't understand." What, that you abandoned them? That you abandoned him and everybody else?! You made a promise--
That I couldn't keep!! Not after everything I'd lost. I was just as broken as Joe was!
I don't care.
[shoves Barry] You WILL!!... You will. You want answers, Barry? How's this? You will go back. You will do everything that you can think of to save her. You're even gonna create time remnants of yourself, but he's gonna kill them all mostly. And then on the night of May 23rd... Iris West will die in your arms.
No.
And in that moment when she takes her last breath, it'll feel like an eternity. And it will break you. She's the love of your life, Barry. She was the love of my life. [sinks into a corner] There'll be nothing left but stopping Savitar. So no, you won't be there for Joe. You won't be there when Caitlin becomes Killer Frost. And Savitar destroys Wally. You won't be there for any of 'em. But then one day, you'll stop him. You'll lock him in the Speed Force forever. But at that point... he already won. Because everything that you've ever loved is gone. Including you. Go home, Barry. There's nothing for you here.
