Trivia[]
- When Chester says "flame's on", referring to Deathstorm, it could a reference to when the Human Torch from Marvel comics says "flame on".
- The scene where Chester was thinking that he's talking to his father (in which it was the Black Flame in disguise trying to manipulate him), is quite similar to what happened in the episodes "The Present" and "The Wrath of Savitar" in which both Cisco and Wally had hallucinate their lost loved ones like Cisco's brother Dante Ramon and Wally's mother Francine West respectively, in which it was Savitar in disguise trying to manipulate and torture them into freeing him.
- Chester mentions the Quincy P. Runk Institute that Ray Palmer sponsored, even though he only sponsored it in the Reverse-Flashpoint timeline, indicating these events still happened in the new timeline after Barry reset it.
