Freddy in the original timeline
In 1989, Freddy was invited to prom by Tiffany Harper, unbeknownst to him in order to prank him. He was ultimately humiliated, with trash dumped over his head. With his invitation to the prom, Freddy's mother believed him to be popular, and thus he was being "taken away" from her. Due to this, she killed all of his classmates except Tiffany, with Freddy taking the fall for it.[1]
Freddy was sentenced to prison in Iron Heights Penitentiary, and on June 4, 2004, he was executed by the electric chair. Kathy died of a heart attack afterwards, with the latter being given a second chance by Astra Logue.[1]
Current timeline
In 1989, Freddy was invited to prom by Tiffany Harper, unbeknownst to him in order to prank and humiliated him. Ray Palmer and Nate Heywood attempted to prevent him from going to prom to prevent an untimely future, but they failed. Freddy was met by Nora Darhk, who revealed herself to be his Fairy Godmother, dressing him up in a new suit. Arriving at prom, he danced with Tiffany, who had a change of heart, and eventually falling in love with him. Brad was angered by this, revealing the entire plan to Freddy, who ran off in anger. Nora talked to Freddy, suggesting he show his true self to his peers, and so he gave a dance performance in front of his classmates. Everyone in the auditorium was charmed by it and joined in. Because of this, he gained some popularity. They eventually all left the prom, but before their limo could leave, they were attacked by Freddy's mother in a mask. She was stopped in time by Behrad Tarazi, and was subsequently arrested.[1]
In 2004, Freddy and Tiffany attended their reunion showing they were now married, where Freddy thanked Nora for giving him a nice life.[1]
