The following day, Barry finally got around to going to Iron Heights to see his father.

"Hey slugger. About time you came to see me. But then again, you still visit more than your sister does." Henry said and Barry smiled, happy that despite the fact that his father was still in prison, at least he was still alive. And no matter what it took, he was going to make sure that his father stayed that way.

"Yeah, sorry, but ever since I woke up from that coma, my life has kind of been sped up." Barry said.

"Really. How's Iris?" Henry asked.

"She's good. Happy that I'm awake. And she's going to be even happier soon." Barry revealed.

"Does that mean what I think it means?" Henry asked and Barry nodded.

"Iris and I have been together since high school and the fact that she waited for me the entire time proves that she's the one for me. So, I'm planning on popping the question." Barry said.

"Well congratulations son. Have you asked Joe for his blessing yet?" Henry asked.

"Not yet, but I'm going to later tonight and also ask him for mom's ring, since I think that she'd want Iris to wear it." Barry said and Henry nodded.

"I think you're right. I'm so happy for you son." Henry said.

"You're going to be there at the wedding, dad." Barry said.

"Barry, by that logic, you might never get married." Henry said.

"While I'd prefer that it's as a free man, I also know that since you've had nothing but good behavior, I think that Joe might be able to get you a temporary release to be in attendance at my wedding and maybe even at Jesse's." Barry said.

"If your sister ever does get married. Honestly Barry, she's even more focused on her work than you are, since at least you took the time to have a relationship with someone." Henry said.

"Iris and I are working on getting Jesse out a bit more." Barry said.

"Good luck with that son. And tell Iris that I am honored to welcome her to this family." Henry said and Barry smiled.

"I will give her the message, assuming she says yes." Barry said, even though he already knew she would.

"If she was willing to wait for you for nine months, I'm sure she'll say yes." Henry said.

"Thanks dad. I'll come visit you soon." Barry promised as he watched the guard take his father back to the cell block.


Barry's next stop after visiting Iron Heights was the West House, since he wanted to do it right this time.

"Hey Barr, what brings you here?" Joe asked when Barry entered the house.

"I need to talk to you about something. Is Iris here?" Barry asked.

"No, she's out running down leads on Wally. Why?" Joe asked.

"Because I don't want her to hear what we're talking about." Barry said and now Joe had an idea of what Barry was here for.

"Even though I know what your answer will be, after what we talked about last time, I thought I'd do it right this time." Barry said.

"Okay then. What is it?" Joe asked with a smile.

"I'd like your blessing to ask Iris to marry me. Again." Barry said and Joe smiled.

"Of course you have my blessing. I'm just glad that this time you had the sense to ask me for it this time." Joe said with a smile.

"Then, can I also have the ring?" Barry asked and Joe nodded.

"You know where it is in the attic." Joe said and Barry nodded as he sped upstairs to grab the ring before coming back down.

"And Joe, before I leave, I'd recommend that you start getting estimates to start renovating this place so that way when you and Cecille have Jenna, she's not living in a house that's falling apart." Barry said.

"Very funny." Joe said.

"I'm not kidding." Barry said.

"I know. I have a contractor coming by tomorrow to get an estimate." Joe said, rolling his eyes.

"I'm surprised that you and Cecille aren't back together?" Barry asked.

"Actually, we're going out on our first date in this new world tonight. Thanks again for having that J'onn guy restore her memories." Joe said.

"No problem. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go." Barry said as he sped out of the house.
