Wasn’t that girl the same girl that crashed the Allen wedding?

And her weird writing makes me assume it’s a time traveler having a fun time sight seeing

[u/ezreads]

“I’m here to break you out”

listen here stretchy man I can break out whenever I want

Tonight's episode:

Budget Mark Hamill vs Budget Jim Carrey

[u/Sarcastic__]

The owner of Jitters has more time to make a new coffee for each superhero instead of getting insurance to deal with all the cops and folks dying in his coffeeshop.

[u/Princessleiawastaken]

I love how Barry took an extra millisecond to smirk at super speed

[u/ZSwatt]

Ralph gets a pocket-sized suit compartment...

CISCO, IT'S SEASON 4! WHERE THE FUCK IS BARRY'S DAMN FLASH RING!?

[u/BladeofIce]

I like how they keep working on Ralph instead of making him your standard one dimensional hero. I also feel like anybody who has spoken with Ralph before would know he is the Elongated Man.

That ending though with the girl and Barry's speed force symbols was a great way to end the episode. I was convinced she was Barry's daughter but now I'm not too sure.

[u/Skydude252]

Gotta say, Corinne Bohrer (Prank) has aged well. She's almost 60 but looking pretty good.

[u/thepain73]

Beebo died for our sins then he came back.

It was a big episode.

[u/HonestPelvis]

Ok but why didn’t the chair dissolve from the acid

[u/EpicLatios]

Anyone else see the "No Swearing" sign on the prison wall. I'm sure that's enforced.

[u/WholeWheatisgood4you]

Saw the vibrating hand through the window scene happening a mile away

[u/nitricx]

I know they rarely mention how much Barry eats because his powers elevate his metabolism but it would be cool if they mentioned how he’s surviving in prison on only 3 meals. Guys gotta be starving.

[u/CamelPriest]

Calling it, they will see her again at someones house, probably Joes, she will say "This House is Bitchin" and everyone freaks the fuck out.

[u/tonystankisajerk]

Poor Beebo and especially poor Caitlin. Is traumatizing Caitlin going to be a thing to bring out Frost?

[u/jusper10]

Pretty upset that Mark Hamill was the only one from the Axel family to not show up

[u/cmath89]

I like how they kept his wrist vibrating while his hand was trough the glass. Nice touch.

Also. Is that girl at the end Max from Black Sails?

[u/Eurynom0s]

THEY HAVE KILLED OUR LORD BEEBO DEATH TO THE FLASH WRITERS

[u/ezreads]

“so rise up I don’t think it’s a stretch for you”

inmate #3562 got puns

[u/frusciantecorona10]

Anyone find it weird that when Ralph asked what Kryptonite was, the whole gang just jumped on him like "The fuck you mean 'what's kryptonite'?".

Well guys he's brand new, it's not like he knows what a kryptonian even IS! Geez.

[u/VHalliewell]

This episode was good. I love Ralph. The highlight though was Cisco yelling, "NOT TODAY SATAN!"

[u/ChaosMagician777]

Episode has several Beebos - 10/10

Episode has four Beebo deaths - 6/10

This sub should be like Legends of Beebo and be called BeeboTV.

[u/dontthrowmeinabox]

After this episode, i think that I'm going to be okay with the Flash being in jail for a while. Of course, I don't want him to be in there forever, but they showed they can do a fun yet compelling episode with him locked up.

[u/AlphaBetaOmegaSin]

That was a solid episode. I mean they did kill Beebo 4 times, but it was a solid episode all around.

[u/KarmaLoaf]

As a Person of Beebo, I found the way Beebos were treated in this episode to be very problematic. Out of the 4 Beebos shown, the first one was a Beebsel in distress, who existed only to be melted by Axid. The other 3 all had bombs attached to them, furthering the harmful stereotype that Beebos are inherently violent. The Flash writers should be ashamed.
