Quotes 

• Reverse-Flash : This timeline's gone.

  Negative Deon : Well, we wanted you to feel at home. You, uh, you know who we are?

  Reverse-Flash : Beings who can do all this. I'm guess you're the Negative Forces. Why am I here?

  Negative Bashir : You never wondered where your speed really comes from?

  Reverse-Flash : I built a machine that taps into the Negative Speed Force, allowing me to siphon it for my own use. Brilliant.

  Negative Deon : Oh, you didn't tap into it. No, no, no, it tapped into you.

  Negative Bashir : It's true. The Negative Speed Force has always existed. It chose you as an avatar, because it feeds off your hatred for Barry Allen.

  Negative Alexa : The other Thawne forgot that. No hate, no negative Speed Force avatar. That's why he had to go.

  Reverse-Flash : I don't know what you're planning, but if you think I'm gonna stand here and play your stupid game...

  [Negative Deon stops Thawne in his tracks] 

  Negative Alexa : Relax, we're not gonna hurt you.

  Negative Bashir : We're just gonna transform you.

• Negative Bashir : Eobard can't come to the phone right now. He's going through some changes.

  Barry Allen : What are you doing to him?

  Negative Alexa : Helping him reach his potential.

  Barry Allen : If this was all about Thawne, why'd you attack us?

  Negative Deon : Oh, man, you came at us first for Armageddon when you cut off the Negative Speed Force from his avatar. Now, see, we... we've been pulling the strings ever since. Finally ready now. See, this is on you, Flash.

  Negative Bashir : You tipped the scales.

  Negative Deon : We're just puttin' things back to normal, and-and-and then some.

  Negative Bashir : This all started the day that you severed Thawne's speed - the day that you upset the cosmic balance.

  Negative Alexa : Something we didn't know was possible until you showed us how.

  Negative Deon : And that was also the day that we realized... we could do the same. Time to tip the scales.

• Bashir Malik : Wow, this is a nice office.

  Allegra Garcia : What happened?

  Bashir Malik : Iris' time sickness, it... it spread to us. So we needed to tether ourselves to someone in this reality. I chose Cecile.

  Cecile Horton : Why?

  Bashir Malik : Because of your boundless potential. I opened the floodgates of your mind. That's how you were able to absorb the gifts of others.

  Queen : Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on. Wait, wait, wait. So, you're the guy who gave her all of our powers?

  Bashir Malik : Mm.

  Rosalind Dillon : [in a sarcastic tone]  Thanks.

  Bashir Malik : You're... welcome?

• Cecile Horton : You wanna tell me how you're gonna deal with all of that anger? Barry, I can feel it pouring off of you. What are you planning?

  [sensing another wave of emotions] 

  Cecile Horton : Oh, my God. You want revenge. But why? Bart and Nora said that Iris is alive.

  Barry Allen : And I know she's not.

  [seeing her react to something] 

  Barry Allen : What is it?

  Cecile Horton : Someone's calling my name. And now I-I'm picking up desperation.

  Bashir Malik : [appearing in front of her]  You have to find us. You're the only one that can help us.

  Barry Allen : Who is it?

  Cecile Horton : Bashir, what happened to you? Where are the other Forces?

  [he flickers in and out, then vanishes] 

  Cecile Horton : He's gone.

  Barry Allen : Was it our Bashir?

  Cecile Horton : Yeah, and he's in pretty bad shape. He said that I'm the only one who can help them. I think he wants me to help bring back the other Positive Forces.

• Bashir Malik : We only have one chance.

  Cecile Horton : Okay. What do you need me to do?

  Bashir Malik : [conjuring his mask]  Put it on. There's a reason you were given all these powers, Cecile. The powers you absorbed were enhanced by the one thing that I lack: your ability to care about people. That's why you were chosen. So take it. The mask will reabsorb your psychic powers and transfer them to me.

  Allegra Garcia : [Top and Queen both try to make a move for it]  Don't even think about it.

  [as Cecile puts the mask on and screams in pain, Allegra moves to help her] 

  Bashir Malik : Wait. She has to go through this.

  [as it finishes, he and the mask both vanish] 

  Allegra Garcia : [helping her as she collapses]  Cecile, are you okay? Did it work?

  Cecile Horton : I sure as hell hope so.
