Kir the Wizard wrote: This episode had a very Twin Peaks-ish feel at times, with the Speed Force being our Lodge and Barry suffering from feeling like he's in all points of time all at once, like Philip Jeffries. Samuroids - a nice find at the bottom of the barrel for Flash villains. Cool DeVoe. Cute Caitlin. Yadayada.

The Iris plot was the weakest. The motivation regarding "BARRY IS GONE FOREVER" is meaningless when we KNOW that characters left and entered the Speed Force before, plus only some months passed. Oh, how terrible! I sometimes don't get to see my relatives for a whole year, try that, Irey!

Oh, and also it was a total de ja vu after seeing Supergirl, with the same "serious girl leader, fun-loving teammates" plot. But at least Cisco, of all people, tried to do something about it, instead of meager "Why don't you just feel better, Kara?" that people at Supes did. Easy Kir, Supergirl doesn't have a scientific reason why she loves Mon-El that they can just delete from her mind.
