Barry and Iris in “Unfinished Business”

You sure this is the me you want, with all the baggage?

Seeing you without the weight of everything that's happened, seeing you happy, like you were before your mother was killed. Without all that darkness haunting you, you were finally free. It was nice.

I did the same thing months ago.

What do you mean?

That freedom? I had that. When I was with my Mom and Dad again in Flashpoint. And I could've let it stay like that. I could have let the memories of this timeline fade, but if I'd done that, I would've lost Joe and Cisco and Wally and Caitlin and you. Pain and darkness, it's a part of me, and I need it to fuel me. To push me to be a better person, to be a better hero. Keep me from ever forgetting who I am.

Now that is the Barry Allen I know and love. [gives Barry a long, loving kiss]
