The Flash: S01x09 – The man in yellow suit
Hey Guys,
welcome to the mid-season final of the Flash. The Story is giving us here really much. I don’t know the comics and so on but i read the review of someone, who did and so get to know a few things and get what they bring in here. Okay know we need a point to start and i think we start with that:
What would i give up for a few minutes with him?
One of the best part of the episode is the part with Caitlin, who became here a little more time. She is finding Ronnie, who survived and now firestorm is. She wants to help him and we see her struggel with everything. Also we see more of the friendship between her and Cisco, what should definitly have more room in the episodes.
We see what it looks like in Caitlin. It broke my heart but it is also one of my favorite scenes where she tells Cisco of the game she plays in her head. She would have give anything for a few more minutes with him. But when she have she wished she hadn’t.
I am really sure that we haven’t seen the last of him and i am not sure on which side he will be when they met again.
Reverse-Flash
I know it! Just saying. So the yellow flash who killed Barrys mother is coming back and shows Barry that he is not the fastest man alive and is also not ready for that fight. Barry is of course to emotional, he is lead by his anger and his fear. He don’t have a chance against him. But more important are to other things first of all the little hints about time travel. It starts with the things the reverse flash says, that they are doing this for years. Than Cisco is hinting that there is another fast man, when Barrys mother get killed. Barry say yellow and red lighting and this is what Cisco saw when the reverse-flash and the flash were fighting against each other. It also makes clear why Barry was found out on the street. Why should the reverse-flash get him out? For me it is clear that in that romm Barry was fighting with the yellow flash. Time Travel.
And the last is that we found out that Doctor Wells is the reverse-flash. He is having a ‘computer’ which tells him the newspapers from the future. So again time travel also he is there when the reverse-flash goes into the trap, so the only explanation is time travling.
Stuck here
After the fight with the yellow flash, he feels like failing his father. What brings us to a really important scene where his father tells him that Barry must let go. The whole episode shows us something Barry is still living in that living room. His whole life is dicated by that. Barry seems to understand it. He goes and tells Iris what he is feeling and maybe now he can start moving on. But this feeling the yellow -flash is wake in Barry stays. That is the point where Joe is telling Barry that he shouldn’t let the darkness in for him.
Barry is a really strong character. Oliver always tells that his life is so much darker and so than Barrys and yeah Oliver lost very much. But Barry also lost his mother. He was there and his father goes into prison for it. He lost his whole family in one day and nobody believes him and what he saw. He is stuck and he let so many chances go away because he can let go of that day but also he still sees the good in the world. He still is full of energy, of laughter, and smiles. He is still full of light. I understand why Oliver is like that, but it shows that Oliver is strengh is only from his body and Barrys strengh comes from his soul.
That is a reason i love Barry so much. He is full of light, full of believes and energy and i hope he will never lose it.
So we go in that break with so much potential for the next episodes. What is the plan of Doctor Wells, what game is he playing. Ronnie is alive and can comeback anytime. Than there is the time travel thing and Eddie is knowing about the metahumans and that Joe knows who the Flash is. Also we don’t want to forget that Wenthworth Miller is still out there and waiting to come back.
