Things slowed way down on The Flash Season 1 Episode 7, as a new nemesis zapped Barry's abilities; while Dr. Wells' investment in his protege's future became just a tad more clear.
Let's start with the good (?) doctor.Speaking to his robotic assistant, Gideon, Wells observed how the "subject's" penchant for heroic action is keeping him from realizing all he can real be.
Yes, he referred to Barry as the subject.
He also said "the future remains intact," as proven by that front page of the 2024 newspaper. Barry simply needs to "kick it up a notch" if he's to use his powers to help larger humanity at large, as opposed to random Central City citizens.
Later on, Wells saw that this future had been changed by The Flash's incapacitation, altering the Gazette headlines to talk about a "Red Skies Threat" and a no more Wayne/Queen merger.
How far will Wells to preserve his interests? He set "Girder" free to stop the threat of Farooq inside S.T.A.R. Labs.
After Tony died as a result and Barry took exception, Wells shot back that he doesn't have the "luxury" of sharing Barry's "ideals."
Robert Knepper, meanwhile reprised his role Tockman/Clock King from an earlier episode of Arrow. In this case, he fired shots at Eddie and briefly took Iris hostage.
Because Barry was without his speed and The Flash unable to save the a day, Barry visited Irish once she was safe and said hd's "never be late again."
Iris took note of who else often utters this phrase.
At the end of the hour, Wells told Gideon that he has to "revisit our initial thesis," saying that Barry's "attachment to people" is what will keep him up to speed - thereby keeping the future "intact," as confirmed by the Gazette's restored headlines.
Watch Arrow online now and see Wells covertly secure a DNA sample from dead Farooq, intrigued as he is by the metahuman's ability to stop The Flash.
Where is this all going? In the near future, to The Flash Season 1 Episode 8, which will be the first half of the epic Flash-Arrow crossover! Check out the related preview here:
