Is anyone else weirded out by how casually Cisco and Ralph treat Caitlin's split personality as no big deal; she's just another person out living "her" life?
Has Barry still not learned his lesson about time travel? He's tried this sort of thing before, going into the future to try and get a peak at how things play out; and it hasn't exactly worked out well for him then.
This is how I think the production meeting for this episode went down:
Writer 1: Hey, we need a name for this week's meta-human
Writer 2: How about Karen?
Producer: So, with the upcoming Crisis event, we need to bring in some extra money by inserting some subtly product placement. Can you guys slip like, 5,000 references to Allegra into an episode?
Writer 1: Yeah.
Why wasn't Allegra wearing the power dampener that Cecile requested as part of her bail? Oh, it was so the plot could happen? Okay.
I gotta give the show credit, the scene with Barry describing what he saw, the billions of possible outcomes, was pretty good.
Let me guess, Allegra (and yes, I see online, that is a real proper first name) will turn out to be innocent and end up working for Iris as a reporter.
Nah, that's too predictable.
So Barry saw billions of possible futures and only one where they succeed. That sounds incredible and not at all familiar.
On an entirely unrelated note, I plan to get around to watching Avengers Infinity War eventually. Please, no spoilers.
Sigh....Why are they turning Caitlin/Killer Frost/Whomever into....what.....am emo teenager?
Have they reduced Cecile from a full on telepath to an empath? Fuck, did they turn her into Diana Troi?
Why don't offer Allegra the meta-cure?
Damn, how is Joe such a bad shot? Why would he waste bullets like that? He's been around metahumans for years now, he know when bullets will and won't work on them; why did he think this was one of the times they would?
Wouldn't Allegra and Cecile have been safer...I don't know...further away than in the next room?
Jesus, this is episode 2 - episode fucking 2, and it's a God damn filler episode? This was such a paint by numbers episode. They could have fit the two major story developments - Cecile switching careers, Barry trying peak into the future - into like, the season premiere or into any other story. Hell, unless I blinked and missed it, they didn't even bother explaining Barry's new(ish?) costume.
Oh my God, Allegra's joined Iris' paper. Whoever could have seen that happen....??
Wait, what? What the hell did I just watch in that last scene? This storyline, such as it is, is so shoe horned into any otherwise pointless episode; we barely got one scene in the middle of the episode of whats-his-name attacking some dude in an alley with his Venom-esque meta powers. Now in some sort of turn about, the guy who was attacked and seemingly killed gets up to attack the meta doctor who killed him - yet I bet it's not the last time we'll see the doctor, so I'm not terrible worried, just confused and bored.
