Atom Smasher, Sand Demon, Lewis Snart, Tokamak, King Shark, Doctor Light and now "The Turtle" have been all the villains this season created to serve a cause.

Atom Smasher needed to be there to deliver the threat of the season and to present Zoom in some way.

Sand Demon served like a way to present the doppelgangers from Earth-2, to present Jay Garrick and also to make Barry learn something new.

Lewis Snart was create to help Leonard Snart had a "redemption" and prove he has some good inside him.

Tokamak was only there to be an obstacle for Barry and Jefferson Jackson, while also a reason to force Jax to become Firestorm.

King Shark was created to prove the Writers dont have limits when we talk about fan-service.

Doctor Light take advantage of the doppelganger situation present thanks to Sand Demon and they use this like an excuse to create some stupid plan about how to put a trap to Zoom, so she serve like a tool to the writers.

The Rogues (James Jesse and Mark Mardon) serve like a tool too, because they released Leonard Snart and help him to finish his "redemption" arc of showing he still has some good inside him. While they also serve to make Patty confront his father killer, Mark Mardon. Also they serve like the obstacle of the season.

Finally "The Turtle" it was him who prove a point, he is slow, Barry was also too slow, he had the chances to make Patty stay in Central City, but he never was honest with her about who he really was and it was "The Turtle" the one who make burst the alredy existing problem between Barry and Patty.

Also "The Turtle" can slow down the time, so he was the tool the writers needed to help Harrison Wells and the Team be possibles of slowing down Zoom. Like "Farooq Gibran" was kill in the Episode 7 of the Flash by Harrison Wells, because he needed to understand how to steel the Flash speed.

If we think so, this episode "Potential Energy" is the 7 episode of the Main Arc, like "Power Outage" was the 7 episode of the Main Arc of the 1 Season, in both episodes Harrison Wells take advantage of a death metahuman to understand and replicate his powers.
