User blog:ImperiexSeed/To those of you who think the RF was trying in 1x22, then why didn't Barry just have the Arrow defeat the RF in 1x09?

I and many others are aware that the RF wasn't trying at all in this fight and that he wanted to get captured. But, sadly, there are some of you out there who think that the RF was actually trying in "Rogue Air." Since you believe this, why didn't Barry just send in the Arrow to defeat the RF in "The Man in the Yellow Suit?" If this was the RF actually genuinely putting forth all his effort, then he was severely belittled by the writers. But I digress, because he wasn't even trying at all, and if he did, he would've massacred all of them so easily.
