Barry, Rikku?You see that smoke? That's a fire on Western and 3rd in downtown Central City.
I'm going 352 miles an hour.
And it's a slow day.
This is Ladder 52.
We're still at least two minutes out. Barry . I said
People are gonna die in there.
I know.
Barry? Rikku! What? Did I miss it? You overshot by about six blocks.
[Sighs] My bad.
Paige! My daughter! Has anyone seen my daughter? Paige! Whoa! You there yet?
What are you doing? Nothing.
Who were you talking to? - No one. Are you talking to Rikku and Barry?
Who? - Barry Allen? Rikku? Struck by lighting? Was in a coma for nine months? Woke up being able to run faster than the speed of sound and a girl that can control water and ice? Ring a bell? No.
Haven't talked to them.
Cisco, there's fire everywhere! Cisco, are you still there? Mom? Mommy! - Whoa! - Mommy! [Siren wails] Everybody's out.
What else you got for me, Cisco? Barry, Rikku, it's Caitlin.
Hey, Caitlin. i said
How's your day? Barry asked
Get back to S.T.A. .
Now.
On our way.
[Exhales] Oh.
Have you all lost your minds? Who do you to think you are? Well, I'm the eyes and ears, and he's the feet and she the cool, hot girl.
This isn't funny.
You two could have gotten yourself's killed.
You can't be running around the city like some supersonic fireman and wondergirl.
Why not? This is what we talked about: Me using my speed to do good and Rikku saving peoples lives with her powers.
We talked about you helping us contain other people who might have been affected by the particle accelerator explosion.
Meta-humans.
And aside from Clyde Mardon, we haven't found any.
People in this city still need help.
- [Sighs] - And I can help them.
We can help them.
Will you please say something? I think what Caitlin is saying, in her own spectacularly angry way, is that we are just beginning to understand what your body is capable of.
Not to sound like a broken record, Mr.
Allen I do caution restraint.
I doubt restraint is how you got to be the man you are today.
In a wheelchair and a pariah.
Lack of restraint is what made me these things.
Know your limits.
don't expect me to patch you up every time you break something.
Hey, uh Anything happen out there today? The sensors in the suit were kicking back some weird telemetry, like your vitals spiked for a few seconds.
Never felt better.
[Phone vibrates] [Sighs] Hey, Joe, everything all right? Great.
I got a fresh crime scene A dead body Detectives interviewing witnesses miles of that yellow tape stretched over everything.
I'm only missing one thing.
Can you guess what that is? I'll be right there.
I got to leave. Barry said
OK i'll stay here practicing my powers. (Just in case i forgot to say Rikku is rich, alomst like oliver queen before he lost the company the first time).
At the crime scene
[Indistinct police chatter] Hmm.
Perp made off with a bunch of handguns, at least six Glock 19s fitted with extra ammunition magazines.
Somebody's looking to do a whole lot of bad.
Hey, sorry I'm late.
Doing a little fall shopping, Mr.
Allen? Oh.
[Nervous laugh] I was going so fast this morning, I didn't even notice.
Oh.
Yeah.
I downloaded the surveillance footage off the video camera.
[Gunshots] Looks like only one perp.
Footage may only show one, but it was six guys.
Look, the tracks.
They're all crossing each other.
Six sets of footprints.
Six guns stolen.
We should be looking for a crew.
Huh Weird.
The shoes, it looks like they're all the same size.
Men's tens, I'd guess.
Just like you, Captain.
Not that you're a suspect, sir.
I- Your ability to multi-task is truly remarkable.
The way you can embarrass me, the captain, and yourself all at the same time.
Joe, I'm sorry.
I'm starting to think "Joe, I'm sorry" is my actual name considering how often you say it to me.
I'm dealing with a lot right now.
Look, I know you are.
Believe me, I'm dealing with it, too.
I've always had a very simple set of beliefs.
Gravity makes things fall.
Sometimes later after the incident at staggs
Barry had fainted and was back at the lab
You lied to us.!
How could you not tell us you're experiencing dizzy spells? We're your doctors and best friend, how i'm wondering if she is passing by the samething?
God knows what's going on inside your bodies.
Your cells are in a constant state of flux.
You could be experiencing cardiopulmonary failure or a transient ischemic attack.
Probably not.
You of all people should know that in science, we share.
Just then Rikku enter the room and everybody looking at her.
what?!
Rikku the tips of you're hair are ice blue and you're eyes are topaz color. Caitlin says
How are you filling Miss Rikku? Dr. Wells asked
Uh i'm fine wait? What?
Dudett you're look totally awesome, that looks given an even awesome heroe apperance.
Let me see my self
(looks at the mirror freack out and brakes the mirror from ice and her emociones )
Whoa Rikku you're okay calm down . Barry says holding her in a hug.
Has she calms down her hair and eyes change pack to normal.
Now Let's figure out why this is happening to you Barry
We're all set.
A little padding.
Just in case.
Yeah.
You're sure about this, Cisco? Most home treadmills have a maximum speed of about This one has been Cisco'ed.
Trust me.
It can handle your speed.
Okay.
Heart rate, blood pressure, nerve conduction all normal.
For Barry.
Brainwave function within standard limits.
[Laughs] I told you the treadmill could take it.
Caitlin.
Look at the glucose levels.
Oh, my God.
Of course.
- Right? - It was so obvious.
Glucose levels.
Barry! We think we know why you keep- passing out.
Barry you're okay , can you hear me? Rikkus aid the her voice sounded so far away
Barry a fight he had with Joe about him saving people. An d Barry leaves.
Joe looks at Rikku
Joe i know what you're think but this means a lot to Barry.
These skin cells belong to the murderer, but these cells are naive.
Stem cells that they can replicate and become any cell the body needs.
They only come from babies.
This means your killer is what, a newborn? You honestly think that someone wants to kill me? Well, we're not sure, Mr.
Stagg, but An event you were being honored at was robbed at gunpoint.
And your head of security was found murdered this morning.
I am a scientist and a philanthropist.
We're not often the targets of assassins.
Well What about lawsuits? You got about 20 of those pending against you.
It is a sad fact of life, Detective, that when you earn a lot of money, people who haven't think they can take yours.
People like this guy, for example? Danton Black? Danton Black.
You fired him.
Now he's suing you.
Unfortunately, our working relationship wasn't successful, but I can assure you both of one thing.
Danton Black Is not a killer.
He's a clinical researcher, not a criminal mastermind.
Now, if I can help you in any way, please let me know.
I want these people caught as much as you.
Then here we are! Down! [Gunshots] [Urgent chatter] Captain, what's going on? Not now, Barry.
A while later entering STAR labs
Hey Cait there was something you me ... WHAT the FACK?! What is Black doing here?
Relac, Barry did the samething when he came in. It's just a clone a creature.
I isolated a sample of Black's blood from you suit to see if I could trigger the in vitro cultivation process and learn how Black multiplies.
So I exposed the target cells to a protein gel, and they began replicating Into that.
Why isn't he It doing anything? We did a brain scan.
Involuntary motor functions are active, little else.
We think it's acting as a receiver.
The clones are an empty shell without Black.
Shut down the real Black, and you might shut them all down.
But how do we know which one's the real Danton Black? That occurred to me given your own passing out.
Black has limits, just like you.
Controlling all of those clones must require a tremendous amount of physical strength.
So, look for the one showing signs of weakness or fatigue.
He's the prime.
Just a theory But one you might want to put to the test, Mr.
Allen and miss Rikku I think it time to show him what you can do
Plus, I whipped up these high- calorie protein bars for you to keep your metabolism up. Cisco said
And for you it's a mix between a tron and wrath motorcycler. It powers up with you're power, you can make a shield shot ice and water from it and it almost has fast has Barry almost its runss 350 mph.
Cool thanks Cisco
Lets go Rikku. Barry says.
Just has we got there we heard some one talking
I know Stagg stole your research, but that doesn't give you the right to murder.
[Grunting] You think this is about my job.
Aah! This is about Elizabeth.
She was my wife.
Gah! She had a degenerative coronary disease.
She'd been on the transplant list for years, but Time was running out.
So if I couldn't get her a new heart You were gonna grow her one.
I was so close.
Until Stagg stole my research.
So he could reap the glory.
And I got to bury my best friend.
Now I'm alone.
Gah! Ah! [Grunting] Ah! Remember, Barry, the prime.
There's too many of them to fight.
Barry, you need to isolate the prime, I will take care of the other. Come on let's go.
Back at STAR Labs
Well, at least multiplex won't be able to hurt anyone else.
Told you I'd come up with a cool name.
You're right Cisco. I said
Yeah, I may be the one in the suit doing all the running But when I'm out there helping people, making a difference You're all out there with me.
Finally realized something, we were all struck by that lightning.
Hungry? Pepperoni, olives And jalape~o pizza?
Or how about Chicken , turkey , peppers.
How about we order both with some ice cream. Dr. Wells said
That sounds great let's go.
Later on that night
A former employee of mine tried to kill me.
Former employee with the ability to replicate Faced off against a man who could move at super speed.
You've seen him too, haven't you?
Indeed, I have. Said WElls
Extraordinary.
The power he possesses, it's like the- it's like the Gods of old.
It's like Mercury on earth.
Can you imagine if you could control his power? If you could-if you could harness it? You could change what it means to be human.
The man in a red mask is the key, and I'm gonna get him.
The man in the red 's called the at least He will be one day. said Wells getting up from his wheel chair
What the hell? [Grunts] Wells stab the man.
Forgive me, Simon.
I worry you think that you will think this is personal, and it's not.
It's just that the man in the red mask The fastest man alive he must be kept safe.
Just like you like it.
Thank you.
