Meanwhile, Cisco considers Hartley's dangerous offer and the team searches for Shawna, a meta-human with teleportation powers, who just busted her boyfriend Clay out of Iron Heights.

Plot

A woman is trapped in an upside down car along with her husband. The flash speeds over and tries to open the car. He does so and gets the one person out of the car. Due to a broken power line, the car catches on flame but not before Barry had sped out with the wife. The man thanks the flash before he speeds away.

Barry is sitting at S.T.A.R. Labs talking about what he had done. Cisco invites them out for drinks but everyone passes. Caitlin tells Cisco that Hartley told him he had a way to find Ronnie. Caitlin however mentions moving on so Cisco tells her that she needed to actually move on instead of just saying it. Barry had already headed out by this point.

A woman pulls up in front of a wealthy home. She teleports into the home and sneaks her way into the building but is spotted on camera before she breaks out a man, revealing that it is a prison. The man calls her Shawna before she teleports them out into her waiting car. They make out in the car briefly before he drives away.

The next day Barry fills in Joe on what he found when his dad is brought over. They finally touch and Barry fills his dad in on part of the case. Joe then reveals that the guard owed him a favor.

Shawna and her boyfriend Clay are in bed. She talks about how they now had a second chance but he says that he owes money so with what she could do could pay off his debt.

Barry takes the information to S.T.A.R. Labs and learns that it wasn't Clay's DNA but Shawna's. Cisco approaches Hartley and asks questions and says how he would have to show him the information he has. Hartley promises to help but Cisco doesn't believe him so he leaves.

Barry and Iris meet up at Jitters he talks about seeing his dad. Iris reveals that she has to write about the Flash or lose her job.

Cisco makes Hartley handcuff himself before letting him out.

Barry and Joe learn information from his dad. He then says that his dad needs to stop.

Cisco and Hartley head outside and look at a shadow. When Hartley tries to make a break for it, they start fighting and Cisco uses a device to incapacitate Hartley to stop him from running. Hartley tells him that the next place he couldn't be handcuffed for.

Barry meets up with Caitlin and she fills him in on what she found as well as Cisco said. The flash heads out and catches Shawna at her car. They start fighting with him speeding to her as she teleports away. Barry speeds to remove a bullet but he still has a bullet wound. He returns to the lab and talks about changing and meets up with Iris. He offers to help her but she has plans with Eddie and his mom. He grows upset but he calls Caitlin and mention how they should scope out the bars. They end up at a Karaoke bar and Caitlin vows that they need to use the time to better their lives. Caitlin drinks his drink and starts a tab.

Cisco and Hartley talk about something he saw that night of the explosion: Stein being combined with Ronnie due to the dark matter. Hartley removes the earpiece and then harms Cisco so as to leave.

Caitlin is drunk and goes onstage. She calls Barry to join her and eventually he did so. He claims he isn't much of a singer. She then has them sing Summer Nights. Caitlin can't sing but Barry is good.

Afterwards, Caitlin goes to the bathroom while Barry tries to approach the bartender. A woman, named Linda, gets the bartender to close Barry's tab. She and Barry then talk and he is surprised when the girl sends her information to him. Caitlin then returns and says she doesn't feel good. They head outside where she pukes.

In a warehouse, Clay gives money to the man. When Shawna has a gun aimed at her head, she doesn't stay still, showing her hand. Suddenly the police show up and Shawna freaks as Clay is shot. She then teleports her and Clay away.

The flash speeds Caitlin home. Caitlin asks if Barry was going to call the number and she drunkenly rambles as she strips. He turns around but she needs help so he superspeeds changing her. She thanks him and asks him to stay until she falls asleep.

The next morning a hungover Caitlin shows up at S.T.A.R. Labs where Barry waited for her. She doesn't remember much of the night before. Barry and Caitlin learn that Hartley is gone because Cisco let him go. Cisco then tells Caitlin how he sealed Ronnie in before the explosion blew. Caitlin forgave him and they then talked about having a theory to how she gets around. She can only move when she could see where she is going.

Barry receives a call and rushes off due to his dad being stabbed. Barry learns that his dad got stabbed due to helping the cops shut down Marcus's stuff. Barry asks him for who did it to him. Later as the flash, he frees Julius to get information and he is left there as the flash speeds off. He stops Shawna and Clay and they begin to fight. Clay then intercedes and Shawna teleports away.

Barry then speeds off to destroy her field of vision to stop her from teleporting. He breaks into the car and Clay ends up leaving her as the flash takes her away to S.T.A.R Labs.

Barry talks to Shawna who admits to being still in love. Caitlin declares to need to move on and Barry heads out.

Barry speeds away and gives Iris information on Clay Porter and what he doesn't know is that she got a photo.

Iris later learns that Barry was at the paper and is surprised that he is there for a lunch date with Linda Park. Afterwards, Barry meets with his dad who shows him the photo and tries to get his son to reveal that he is the flash. His dad then gives him advice.

In a sewer, two men go to find out what is wrong and hear a noise. Something drew the word "Grood" on the wall multiple times. Hearing another noise, they turn and look but see nothing. Suddenly one is attacked and the other runs away but isn't fast enough and is captured by a large black gorilla.

Trivia

  • After Barry is almost shot in the neck but pulls it out before the bullet enters him, Caitlin examines him. She tells him that he is lucky to be alive. He replies "I guess I am faster than a speeding bullet." This quote is commonly applied to Superman "Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings at a single bound!"

Errors

  • When Hartley describes the bomb shadow on the wall to Cisco, stating in Japanese: "bakudan no kage", meaning "bomb shadow", he pronounces kage wrong, with a nonexistent je sound in place of the ge.
