Mia Smoak : What did Thawne mean when he said, "save me"? Save him from what?
Barry Allen : You see how he's fading in and out? Same thing happened to me in his Reverse-Flashpoint. He's being erased. Once the process is complete, he'll die.
Cecile Horton : So when you removed Thawne's changes, the timeline decided to remove him, too.
Barry Allen : Yeah.
Iris West-Allen : Okay, but when Thawne died, he came back somehow after Eddie. I mean, could that happen again?
Barry Allen : No, this is different. When I reset the timeline, I used Damien's Time Stone. It eliminated all possible time variables, restoring a single, permanent timeline again. This one.
Caitlin Snow : So if he dies this time...
Chester P. Runk : It's game over for good.
Caitlin Snow : Okay. I need to call Frost. If we're gonna decide what to do about Thawne, we need the whole team here.
Mia Smoak : Wait a minute. You're not actually considering saving him, are you?
Iris West-Allen : Mia, we know that Thawne is bad, but we still need to talk this through before we make any decisions.
Mia Smoak : Fine. If that's how you guys do things. But you're making a big mistake.
-
Barry Allen : Look, if we're really heroes, we can't turn our back on anyone, including Thawne.
Frost : So you wanna take away his speed to save his life?
[he nods]
Frost : All right, what if it doesn't work?
Barry Allen : It will. Before the timeline reset, Jefferson hit me with enough continuous voltage to nearly sever my connection to the Speed Force.
Allegra Garcia : Like blowing a fuse.
Cecile Horton : And you wanna do the same thing to Thawne.
Iris West-Allen : And once his speed is gone, A.R.G.U.S. will take him into custody. We've already called Cisco.
Caitlin Snow : Jail time won't make up for all the lives he destroyed.
Barry Allen : Look, you're right, but... we can't let Thawne change who we are.
-
Iris West-Allen : I can't believe everything that you went through. I mean, these last few days have been so... normal. Boring, even.
Barry Allen : I mean, I'm glad nobody remembers.
Caitlin Snow : And Frost and Chillblaine were married?
Barry Allen : Apparently.
Caitlin Snow : That's insane.
Allegra Garcia : What about Chuck and me? What were we doing?
Barry Allen : I... I mean, same as now, I guess. I-I don't know, I mean, we weren't really teammates in that other timeline, so... I do know Chester helped build the energy absorption tech that saved the world. Hold on.
[he zoops away and back]
Barry Allen : [handing a device to Chester] There you go.
Chester P. Runk : [inspecting it] Holy Ron Mallett. This circuitry is next-level.
Barry Allen : Mm-hmm.
Chester P. Runk : Okay, nice work, future me, but is it okay that I have this? I don't wanna start, like, a Chester-P.-point.
Iris West-Allen : I mean, maybe just don't talk about it on your podcast.
Chester P. Runk : Ah, gotcha.
Joe West : Well, Barr, you risked everything to prevent Armageddon and gave all of us a second chance. And we are really damn grateful, especially me.
Cecile Horton : [taking his hand] Ditto. You really are a true hero, Barry.

Chester P. Runk : Mia, what the hell, girl?
Despero : [speaking through Mia] Iris West-Allen. You and Flash made this decision. And now you'll die for making the wrong one.
Iris West-Allen : Mia, listen to me. This isn't you.
Cecile Horton : Mia. Mia, she's right. Take my power. Take my strength. Fight him.
Despero : Empath. You think I'd release this perfect vessel?
Iris West-Allen : [powering up a blaster rifle] Mia, stop. I know you can fight this.
Despero : The child is gone, human.
Iris West-Allen : No, she's not. Mia, I know you can fight this because you already have. Look around. You could've killed us all, but you didn't.
Cecile Horton : Mia, she's right. Fight him.
Despero : [fighting with the Flash] Impossible.
Iris West-Allen : Mia, think about William. is this the path he would want you to choose?
Green Arrow : [as Despero's control over her is lifted, she drops her bow] Iris. Allegra, Frost, in the hallway.
Cecile Horton : I'll go check on them.
Green Arrow : I'm so sorry.

Chester P. Runk : Now, this is epic.
[imitating an echo]
Chester P. Runk : Epic, epic.
Cecile Horton : Wow, I don't know what's more impressive. This place or us.
Iris West-Allen : Us, definitely.
Mia Smoak : I haven't been in a place this swank since my debutante days.
Barry Allen : Well, we have the place to ourselves tonight. And since Thawne's at A.R.G.U.S. and Despero's finally gone...
Iris West-Allen : For good, it seems like.
Barry Allen : I figured we deserved a night off.
Mia Smoak : Look, about me going evil and trying to kill you all...
Cecile Horton : Already forgiven. We're just glad to have the real Mia back. And that, beautiful people, is it for shop talk.
Caitlin Snow : Yes, absolutely. I think we've had enough of aliens and evil speedsters.
Damien Darhk : Does that go for evil magicians, too?
Mia Smoak : [drawing a knife and putting it to his throat] I know what you did to Laurel Lance, Damien Darhk. How about I return the favor?
Damien Darhk : By all means, go for it. I thought I'd be a dead man by now, anyway.
Mia Smoak : [withdrawing the weapon] I need a drink. A real one.
-
Barry Allen : How's Mia?
Caitlin Snow : She's resting. Frost is keeping an eye on her.
Cecile Horton : Thank goodness Iris got to her before she...
Chester P. Runk : Right, but what in the world are we supposed to do now?
Allegra Garcia : We beat Despero to the punch. We whammy Thawne's speed right now, make him a permanent jaywalker before Despero whammies us.
Caitlin Snow : [Cecile senses an emotion from her] It's okay, Cecile. We all decided it together.
Barry Allen : Chester, where are we with...
Chester P. Runk : Project Whammy? Well, I still have to finish calibrating your suit.
Cecile Horton : Well, how much time do have before the timeline resets?
Chester P. Runk : A few minutes, maybe less, and only if Despero doesn't wipe us out first.
Allegra Garcia : Look, we are not losing today. Not our city. Not a single life. I don't know how, but there's gotta be a way to stop Despero long enough for Chuck to do his thing, so come on. We're Team Flash. What can we do?
-
Chester P. Runk : You can't be serious. You can't just let Thawne die.
Barry Allen : I gave him a chance to prove he can change. He can't.
Allegra Garcia : So what, we just kill him?
Caitlin Snow : Thawne messed with the timeline, and now the timeline is fighting back. I say we let it.
Iris West-Allen : Me, too. Look, Thawne did this to himself, and it's not like we can save him, so it's time to let him go.
Allegra Garcia : Look, I know that we're the new kids and we don't have the same history with Thawne, but that's a good thing, because I don't care who Thawne is. I care who you guys are, and you save people. I know because you saved me.
Chester P. Runk : And me, literally.
Iris West-Allen : You're right. You are the new kids. And so when it comes to Thawne, I'm sorry, but you don't get a say.
Cecile Horton : Iris, maybe we should think about this.
Caitlin Snow : We already have.
Barry Allen : You guys don't understand what Thawne's capable of. It's time to keep everyone safe by finally letting Thawne die.
Joe West : [with the tone of an order, not a request] Barry, Iris, we need to talk. Now.
