John Diggle : Word at A.R.G.U.S. is you are leveling up, Cecile.
Cecile Horton : Hmm. Didn't know you kept tabs on us ordinary people.
John Diggle : I guess that means you're far from ordinary.
Caitlin Snow : [referring to the captive Godspeed] Speaking of, can you sense what's going on inside his mind?
Cecile Horton : No. Barry already had me try, and the only thing that I could feel was... hatred. And determination.
John Diggle : Why isn't he trying to make contact with the rest of his team?
Allegra Garcia : Oh, he's trying. But I'm sending out serious interference. He can't get through.
Caitlin Snow : She's our own personal signal jammer.
John Diggle : That'd come in handy in the field. This whole team is leveling up.
-
Caitlin Snow : Easy. You still have six broken ribs and some internal bleeding.
Barry Allen : Another hour of speed healing, I'll be fine. Those Godspeeds will be back soon. I need to be ready.
Caitlin Snow : Look... I've patched you up enough times to know that this isn't about some broken bones or clones, or... even Iris being under the weather.
Barry Allen : I had a dream about Nora. My Nora, from the future. It was the second dream, actually. This time, she was so afraid. She told me the future had changed and... I needed to do something. I know it was just a dream, but... Caitlin, I'm really worried. Godspeed was Nora's enemy from 2049. If all these other Godspeeds are here now, what does that mean for the future of my family? What if it somehow means...
Caitlin Snow : Your Nora doesn't exist anymore. You could... go check on her. Run to the future.
Barry Allen : I want to, but I'd risk causing another Flashpoint. Plus, more Godspeeds could show up at any moment.
Caitlin Snow : Then you wouldn't be here to fight them. I get it. You're right.
Barry Allen : I can't leave. Not while there's a civil war in the city.
John Diggle : Maybe I can help with that.
Caitlin Snow : John?
Barry Allen : Dig!
John Diggle : Barry, Caitlin.
[holding up a small metal case]
John Diggle : brought you something.
Barry Allen : What is it?
John Diggle : If we're lucky, a way to end this war before someone gets killed.
-
John Diggle : It's called an entropy trap. And hopefully, it's gonna save your city.
Chester P. Runk : [trying to contain his excitement] Wait, wait, wait, wait. So you're saying that John Diggle is gonna help us end the Godspeed war? AKA Spartan, AKA Oliver Queen's right-hand man, AKA the heart and soul of Team Arrow?
John Diggle : Yeah. And this is something that Cisco cooked up after you called him and gave him the 411 on Central City.
Barry Allen : Dig, when we reached out for help, I had no idea he was gonna send you.
John Diggle : He didn't. I volunteered, man. You're fighting a war, Barry. I know something about that.
Cecile Horton : And with a battle-tested soldier like you on our side, we're gonna win.
-
John Diggle : This motion-detection plate has a response time of a picosecond.
[setting it on the floor and turning it on]
John Diggle : And now it's live. Hey, do you mind handing me that thing?
Chester P. Runk : Oh, yeah, absolutely!
[picking up Cisco's Quantum Ball]
Chester P. Runk : I mean, like, absolutely I don't mind kinda... I'm the new guy, by the way. Chester. Big fan, man, big fan.
John Diggle : Thanks. All right, guys, you might want to stand back.
[he throws the ball, and they watch it stop]
Chester P. Runk : Whoa, dog! So the plasmatic wave eliminates all entropy from any object or person.
John Diggle : Yup. Freezing it in time.
[turning the trap off, the ball falls to the ground]
Barry Allen : Guys... if we could trap one of these Godspeeds, find a way to communicate with it...
Cecile Horton : We can find out what they want and why they're fighting.
Chester P. Runk : And end this thing.
Barry Allen : Once we've caught one, we'll bring it back here for questioning.
John Diggle : Whoa, whoa, whoa. You want to invite the enemy into your house, Barry? Is that a good idea?
Barry Allen : Look, these new Godspeeds saved my life last night. If there's any chance of finding allies in this war, it's with them.
-
Barry Allen : You've been listening this whole time. Why talk now?
Prisoner Godspeed : I needed to be sure. In this war, we fight versions of ourselves. But when two sides are evenly matched, there is no winning. Only endless suffering. I know now you are strong. You are the advantage we need to achieve our goal.
Barry Allen : Which is?
Prisoner Godspeed : To live! We did not ask to be born, but we do ask not to die. The others, they want your speed to give to their master, August Heart. But upon completion of their mission, they will bow down to his final edict. Total submission.
Barry Allen : And once they do, they'll die?
Prisoner Godspeed : We do not want that fate.
Barry Allen : I understand the need to defend yourselves. But if you're from the future, why bring your war here?
Prisoner Godspeed : We had no choice. The Prime August Heart is here, in this time.
Cecile Horton : [watching in the Cortex with the others] That's what they're all doing. That's what they're doing. They're searching for August Heart.
Caitlin Snow : And whoever finds him first...
John Diggle : Wins the whole damn war.
-
Chester P. Runk : [watching Godspeed in the Pipeline] Okay, so... why isn't he talking?
John Diggle : He's a soldier. He'll talk when he's ready. And not a moment sooner.
-
Chester P. Runk : Tell Cisco that I have scanned every element. And I am on the case. If there's any way to duplicate this Time Trapper tech, we'll find it.
John Diggle : I know you will. You got skills, man. This team is lucky to have you.
Chester P. Runk : Thanks, man. So, see you soon?
John Diggle : Sure.
[offering a fist bump]
John Diggle : Take care of yourself.
-
Frost : You sure this is the right place?
Cecile Horton : Yeah, Iris' notes say that August Heart works at this address in 2049. But in our time, Dayton Labs hasn't been built yet.
Spartan : This was the last place on your list?
Cecile Horton : Yeah.
[seeing something out of the corner of her eye]
Cecile Horton : Did you see that?
[stopping Dig]
Cecile Horton : Wait. He's scared. I can feel it.
[giving her weapon to Dig, then heading over to a nearby dumpster]
Cecile Horton : Whoa, wait, wait, wait, we're not gonna hurt you. We're not gonna hurt you. Hi. My name is Cecile Horton. Are you all right?
August Heart : Yeah.
Cecile Horton : What's your name?
August Heart : I... I... I-I-I don't know.
Cecile Horton : Okay. Okay, well, look, we g... we gotta get you out of here. It's not safe.
August Heart : No, no, no, I can't... I can't leave! It's there. This place is... it's important. It's important. I can feel it.
Cecile Horton : Do you know why it's so important to you?
August Heart : No! No. Do you?
-
Barry Allen : You leaving?
John Diggle : There's something I've been putting off for far too long, and today it nearly got me killed. And now I have to deal with it.
Barry Allen : I get it, it's... it's just this war. We need all the help we can get.
John Diggle : Barry, you think I don't know that? And as much as everything inside of me wants to stay and help you fight, in my heart and soul, man, I know I can't put this off any longer.
Barry Allen : All right, well, whatever's going on, let us know if you need anything.
John Diggle : [hugging goodbye] Yeah. Thanks, man.
[stopping at the door]
John Diggle : And Barry? Good luck. With everything.
-
Frost : [Diggle has another migraine attack] Spartan, look out!
[knocking Godspeed back with a blast of ice]
Frost : You all right?
Spartan : Yeah, I am, since you had my back.
Cecile Horton : It happened again. I gotta get you out of here. Caitlin needs to examine you.
Spartan : No. Not while Heart is still out there.
-
Caitlin Snow : Godspeed's biometrics show he just tapped into his speed!
John Diggle : Barry, turn on the trap!
Prisoner Godspeed : [phasing out of his cell, he beats Barry to the trap and smashes it] If you are not an ally, you are an enemy.
-
John Diggle : [after Barry shouts at Chester] So, you want to tell me what's really got you so upset that you're talking to your teammates like that? And don't tell me it's about some broken tech, Barry.
Barry Allen : It's my daughter. Nora. Before she came to join us, she lived in the future. 2049. The exact time Godspeed's from.
John Diggle : Okay, and with everything that's going on, you think it affects the future somehow?
Barry Allen : Dig, if... if August Heart is here, wh-what does that mean for Nora? And the future of our family? Is she okay? Will Iris and I still have a family? Is Nora even alive in the future anymore? Now, all I wanna do is run to 2049 and make sure Nora's okay. See with my own eyes that my daughter's safe. But I can't do that.
John Diggle : Why not?
Barry Allen : Dig, you know better than anyone what could happen if I did. Besides, man, with this civil war destroying the city, staying here to fight is the right thing to do.
John Diggle : No, it's not. Barry, I lived a long life here on this earth. I've been a spy, a vigilante, a soldier; hell, I've even been the Green Arrow. The most important job I've ever had is as a dad. And there's not a bullet I wouldn't take, there's not a timeline that I wouldn't risk changing if it meant protecting my family. I know that now. Lyla, my kids, they're my heart, man. My soul. My entire world. How far would I go for them? As far as it takes. Everything else be damned. Don't be afraid to do the same.

Caitlin Snow : The clones are back.
Cecile Horton : Seems like they came back awfully fast this time.
Chester P. Runk : Flash, we got company.
The Flash : I'm ready, Chester. Do it.
Chester P. Runk : [tapping a control] Signal activated.
[the wings on Barry's cowl emit a high-pitched tone]
Chester P. Runk : Okay, Flash's suit is emitting a signal identical to the original Godspeeds.
Cecile Horton : So the new Godspeeds will think that he's their rival...
Caitlin Snow : When he's really bait.
The Flash : [a Godspeed catches up to him] We got one!
[approaching the entropy trap, he phases through the street]
Caitlin Snow : [seeing Godspeed suddenly stop] What happened? Did it work?
Spartan : It worked, all right.
[Barry speeds in next to him]
Spartan : That's something you don't see every day.
-
Cecile Horton : Thanks for coming.
John Diggle : Happy to help. Where's Allegra? We could use the extra firepower.
Cecile Horton : Yeah, no, I called, I texted, still nothing.
John Diggle : [with a sudden groan, he holds his head in pain] Do you hear that? Do you hear that?
Cecile Horton : No.
[he staggers for balance]
Cecile Horton : John! John, hey, hey! Are you all right?
John Diggle : These headaches. This one's a lot worse than the others.
Cecile Horton : Okay, okay. Are you sure that that's all it is?
[using her powers to sense his emotions, she gasps and holds her head in pain, too]
Cecile Horton : It's too much! It's like... fighting a hurricane!
[gasping as the sensation subsides]
Cecile Horton : Okay, John, buddy, I don't know what that was, but that was a hell of a lot more than a headache. I... I felt something. I don't know what it was, but it felt huge. No. More like... infinite. John, maybe you should stay here.
John Diggle : No. No, I'm fine, I promise. If there was something really wrong, the doctors in Gotham would have found it. Really, whatever it is, I can handle it when we're done here. Let's just find Heart while we still have the chance.

Barry Allen : [after Godspeed escapes from the Pipeline] How did he get out?
Chester P. Runk : I don't know. The meta-cell should have kept him powerless, but... oh, man. Godspeeds are fueled by a velocity formula; a chemical Speed Force substitute.
John Diggle : Which means he's an artificial meta, so dampeners wouldn't do anything.
Allegra Garcia : So why didn't he just peace out as soon as we unfroze him?
Barry Allen : We thought we were interrogating him. He was interrogating us. Chester, you have to fix this.
Chester P. Runk : Uh, I'm sorry, but... Cisco built this core with original Time Trapper tech. That kind of tech's one of a kind. I can't...
Barry Allen : Yeah, you have to. It's the only way to stop one of them.
Chester P. Runk : Barry, this isn't junk, okay? Without access to bleeding-edge temporal components, there's just...
Barry Allen : [his frustration boiling over] Then find another way!
John Diggle : Chester, Allegra, give me a second with Barry.
