![]() ![]() If jumping off a building to save Barry wasn’t enough, Nora has yet another example of how badass Iris can be. But when Savitar rises, Nora also gets to see her mom save the day by shooting him before he can kill Barry. Nora watches as Season 3 Barry phases into Savitar’s suit and shatters it, while Savitar is knocked out on the ground. First stop Savitar! Barry finally notices the Time Wraith and instructs Nora to get a piece of Savitar’s suit while he rushes off to deal with the wraith. All they need is 1) an indestructible alloy with magnetic properties like Savitar’s suit, 2) something to remove dark matter from the dagger like the speed force transmitter that Zoom used to steal Barry’s powers, and 3) dark matter from the particle accelerator to recalibrate the speed force transmitter.Īnd so, the quest is on! We are treated to watching Nora and Barry running through the speed force, but unbeknownst to them, they are being followed by a Dementor Time Wraith. Nora, who is sitting in a chair reading her journal, chimes in that they need a weapon that is more powerful than Cicada’s dagger and the elements to build such a weapon are all in the past. Barry is gung-ho about racing over to catch Cicada, but Sherloque reminds him that they need a way to catch him without giving Cicada the opportunity to use his power-draining dagger. Labs, they report their findings to the team, predicting when Cicada will be at the hospital next. Knowing that Orlin/Cicada visits his niece at the hospital, Ralph and Sherloque go undercover to take some surveillance photos. Last week’s episode ended with the team learning the identity of their newest enemy, Cicada. The episode is fast-paced, but it neatly ties the team’s present to all of events of the past, and has lots of surprises that will leave you on the edge of your seat, wanting to see more. Strong writing by Todd Helbing and Lauren Certo allows viewers to fully grasp how the current timeline is so dependent on the smallest details of the past, while creative direction by Tom Cavanagh gives us a fresh take on some of the show’s greatest hits. This week’s 100th episode brings back some of the show’s greatest villains and provides a new perspective on some its darkest moments. Barry knows it, Nora should know it yet in the ongoing battle to defeat Cicada, they are willing to risk altering the future by traveling through the past. If we’ve learned nothing else from watching five seasons of The Flash, it’s that time travel is tricky. ![]() The Flash marks its 100th episode with a journey through its past ![]()
