Did it come too late in the season to have much of an impact?
This couple is super cute.
Thankfully, Joe is summoned to S.T.A.R.
Labs and runs off before having to deal with that landmine.
Barry, Cisco, and H.R.
Dudek is delightful in this role.
Cisco freezes in the moment, but Barry is quick enough to save everyone.
Obviously, Killer Frost shows up at Jitters and tries to kill Tracy Brand again.
Thankfully, the whole team is there to save her.
Its a thrilling emotional roller coaster.
After the battle, Team Flash returns to S.T.A.R.
runs after her to have the pep-up chat, but he loses her.
After some future cyber stalking, H.R.
Im sure many of differ on how we feel about Tom Cavanagh as H.R.
Cavanaghs eyes are expressive and alight; you believe that H.R.
genuinely believes in Tracy.
Its clear hes not only crushing on her but truly inspired by her.
Its a very touching scene.
Cecile shows up unannounced at Joes home since hes been dodging her calls and texts.
Either Joe hands over Tracy in the next few hours, or Cecile dies.
Its platonic and familial.
It makes sense that Cisco would hesitate when he goes up against her.
Thankfully, Julians there to give him the pep talk he needs.
He tells Cisco hes confident he wont kill Caitlin because his powers come from a place of love.
Guys, this is the kind of cheesiness that the show has been missing all season.
Naturally, Savitar shows up right before they take her back to S.T.A.R.
My ascension is nearly at hand, says Savitar before speeding off with Caitlin.
Witnessing Savitar in action is the inspiration Tracy needs to start figuring out how to stop him.
Like I told you in the beginning, I am the future Flash, says Evil Barry Allen.
And this reveal definitely makes sense.
This Barry is clearly one who lost Iris and never recovered from that.
To be fair, the show tipped its hand twice early in the episode.
However, thats not the reason this reveal kind of falls flat.
The big reveal is the least interesting part of the episode because it came so late in the season.
In fact, Killer Frosts presence in the episode offers the best explanation for why Savitar doesnt work.
