Quotes 

• Bart Allen : It's all "aster", no "dis."

  Barry Allen : I have no idea what that means.

• Iris West-Allen : Barry. You know the Negative Speed Force will need to find a new avatar.

  Barry Allen : I know. 'Cause the universe is all about balance... Which means that one day, the Negative Forces will have to pick one.

  Iris West-Allen : I wonder who they'll choose.

  Barry Allen : We won't know until it happens. But whenever that day comes, and whoever that avatar is... We'll be ready for them.

• Reverse-Flash : You're too late, because your pathetic avatar is powerless.

  Speed Force : You call that power? This is power.

  Reverse-Flash : [the Positive Forces merge with Barry]  This is impossible.

  The Flash : No, this is the end. We're equals now, Thawne.

  Reverse-Flash : Equals? Never. I have always been, I will always be better than 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.

• Barry Allen : You were dead. I saw your body.

  Reverse-Flash : And yet... here I am in the flesh. How's that possible? The Negative Forces... brought me back because they were too weak without a fourth member of their merry band. Didn't I tell you that finding ways to kill you is my life's work? Here's what's really funny - killing your mother lead to the birth of the Flash, and killing Iris led to the rebirth of me. So I guess you could say your mother... and Iris... were good for something.

• The Flash : I'm done fighting you.

  Reverse-Flash : You think I won't kill you? I'll slaughter you where you sit!

  [levitates himself in the sky] 

  Reverse-Flash : I just need more power. Do you hear me? I just need more power.

  The Flash : We're not meant to tip the scales. You won't survive, Thawne!

  Reverse-Flash : You lie, Flash! This is the moment!

• [Barry is hitting Reverse-Flash with a lightning strike] 

  Bart Allen : Dad, stop! He's not worth it!

  Barry Allen : He killed your mother!

  Nora West-Allen : Dad, if you do this, you'll be just as bad as him!

  [Barry stops] 

  Reverse-Flash : What's the matter Flash? You can't finish the job? You better then finish the job! 'Cause if you don't...

  [points at Nora and Bart] 

  Reverse-Flash : They're next.

  Bart Allen : Dad! Don't listen to him, please.

  Nora West-Allen : Even if he did kill Mom now in 2022, we're still here. Don't you see? We're still alive.

  Bart Allen : She's right. We haven't been erased from the timeline yet, which means Mom isn't dead yet.

• Cecile Horton : Barry, it sounds dangerous.

  Bart Allen : 'Cause it is.

  Allegra Garcia : Fine, so how exactly do you get inside the Negative Speed Force?

  Barry Allen : The first time I went into the Positive Speed Force, Harry hit me with a concentrated blast of dark matter and lightning that generated a tachyon reaction.

  Chester P. Runk : Well, I could rig the tachyon harness to do the same. Only, if you're trying to get in a negative place, you're gonna need a negative source of lightning.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : Like me.

  Cecile Horton : Meena, I-I don't think that's such a good idea right now.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : We need to find a way in. I'm the key.

• Iris West-Allen : Barry, you have to stop.

  The Flash : No, I have to finish this.

  Iris West-Allen : No, Barry, listen to me. The city can't take anymore fighting.

  The Flash : That's why I have to end this.

  Iris West-Allen : You can't.

  Reverse-Flash : She's right. We'll never stop until one of us is dead. Time to tip the scales.

• Tinya Wazzo : [in Iris' office at the Citizen]  Well, I never thought I'd see you again. I-I don't mean to be rude or whatever, but why am I here?

  Renee Wazzo : [being zooped in by the Flash]  Tinya.

  Tinya Wazzo : Mom? It's really you?

  Renee Wazzo : I didn't know if I'd ever get out of that place. I just knew I had to see you again.

  Tinya Wazzo : I... how did this happen?

  The Flash : When Iris beat her time sickness, it cured the Still Force, too, and then Renee showed up back at home in Coast City.

  Renee Wazzo : We have so much to catch up on.

  Tinya Wazzo : [to Flash and Iris as they leave]  Thank you.

  The Flash : You're welcome.

  [he and Iris fist-bump] 

• XS : [seeing streams of colored light in the sky]  What is that?

  The Flash : It's the universe resetting itself.

• Barry Allen : It's all my fault.

  Bart Allen : What about Thawne?

  Barry Allen : Negative Forces... they were transforming him somehow.

  Bart Allen : So he's still alive?

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : But they already gave him his speed back. What more could they want?

  Chester P. Runk : [his tablet beeps]  Guys, I'm picking up a huge influx of negative kinetic tachyons.

  Barry Allen : Where?

  Chester P. Runk : Right over Downtown.

• Chester P. Runk : Guys, I'm not just picking up negative kinetic isotopes; reading temporal, geothermic, electric chemical ones, too.

  Barry Allen : He has the power of all four Negative Forces now.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : Why?

  Barry Allen : To tip the balance of power in their favor; turn the entire world into a living hell.

• 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.

• Barry Allen : How are you feeling?

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : Like there is so much I don't know. But more importantly, the B.L.O.C. is no longer working. It was never my idea, was it?

  Barry Allen : No, it wasn't. The Negative Speed Force used the machine to pick its avatars. You were a means to an end.

  Iris West-Allen : I'm sorry you lost your speed.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : Don't be. It was never my dream to be a speedster.

  Iris West-Allen : I know I never got to meet him, but... Eobard seems like a very special person.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : He was.

  Iris West-Allen : [giving her his yellow tie]  I wanted to give you this.

  Barry Allen : We found it at STAR Labs.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : Thank you. For everything.

• Dr. Meena Dhawan : [an attempt to get Barry into the Negative Speed Force fails]  Why didn't it work?

  Chester P. Runk : I-I don't know.

  Bart Allen : If this won't work, we can't access the Negative Speed Force.

  Barry Allen : Then we need to find another way.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : Eobard would've known what to do. But now he's gone. Because of me... and that damn machine.

• Barry Allen : [Meena charges her powers in the B.L.O.C]  Your speed's at 100%.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : Promise me when you find that bastard, you'll never let him hurt anyone else ever again.

  Barry Allen : You remember what you did when you shared your speed with Eobard?

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : He told me I had to share the most important parts of myself.

• Cecile Horton : [feeling Barry and Meena's emotions]  They're both hurting badly.

  Allegra Garcia : Okay, so what do we do now?

  Cecile Horton : We find Iris and we bring her home.

  Chester P. Runk : Then we find a way to take down the Negative Forces, 'cause if they come back for a rematch...

  Nora West-Allen : I don't think they will. They already got what they came for; the last Thawne in existence.

  Bart Allen : What do they need him for, anyway?

  Barry Allen : There's only one way to find out. I have to find a way into the Negative Speed Force.

  Bart Allen : Dad, no offense, but that's insane.

  Barry Allen : I don't have a choice. As long as Thawne's out there, everyone's in danger. Chester already ran a satellite search. Thawne's nowhere on the planet. The only place left to hide is the Negative Speed Force. If I can find a way in...

  Cecile Horton : No, look... I can feel all of the anger inside you, I can, and I know that you've been to hell and back today, but we need to think our next move through.

  Barry Allen : HE KILLED IRIS!

  Cecile Horton : Barry, how can you possibly be so sure?

  Barry Allen : Because I am.

  Nora West-Allen : [asking for privacy]  Guys, we need to talk to our dad.

• Joan Williams : Barry, your Force particles are gone. And as for you, Iris, there's no sign of your time sickness anywhere. You're completely cured.

  Nora West-Allen : And Gideon says there's no Thawne anywhere in the timeline.

  Iris West-Allen : Then it's really over, all of it.

  Barry Allen : Bart, Nora, about the way I behaved today...

  Bart Allen : Uh-uh. No, not after all of the things that you have helped us with.

  Nora West-Allen : Yeah, he's right, Dad. At the end of the day, all that matters is you did the right thing.

  Jay Garrick : And on that note, I think we should all go back to our lives in 2049.

  [shaking hands with Barry] 

  Jay Garrick : Great work today, Flash, as always.

• Barry Allen : [Meena wants to destroy the B.L.O.C]  Meena, you don't wanna do this.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : Yes, I do! This machine ruined my life!

  Barry Allen : No, it didn't. Thawne did.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : There is nothing we can do about it! Not anymore.

  Barry Allen : [getting an idea, he glances at the machine]  Yes, there is. Look, Meena, I know exactly how you feel. You're the only one who understands, who knows, how this has to end. That's why you can't destroy your work. We need it.

  Dr. Meena Dhawan : What for?

  Barry Allen : So we can get you charged, and you can share your speed again... with me.

• XS : [throwing lightning at Reverse-Flash, it's revealed to actually be Bart]  Dad. Is he gonna be okay?

  Fast Track : If that's Impulse, where's Thawne?

  Reverse-Flash : [appearing behind them]  Right here.

  [he snaps, and Nora, Bart, and Meena vanish] 

  The Flash : What did you do?

  Reverse-Flash : I sent them back in time. A billion years, to be precise.

• Nora West-Allen : Assuming we can find our way into the Negative Speed Force, let us handle this. We will make sure Thawne gets back to Iron Heights. Dad, we promise.

  Barry Allen : You weren't there. You didn't see what I saw. Iris died in my arms before her body disappeared. You say she's alive, but for all we know, she's already been erased from this timeline, only the changes haven't caught up with us yet. It's happened before.

  Bart Allen : You still wanna kill him, don't you?

• Barry Allen : [cuddling with Iris]  I never wanna let you go.

  Iris West-Allen : Then don't. I mean, I could stay like this all week.

  Barry Allen : That works for me. Iris, last night, I thought I lost you forever, 'cause I couldn't feel our connection.

  Iris West-Allen : Yeah, when I was in the Time Stone, I couldn't feel you, either. That's why I knew I had to get back to you. So I reignited our spark.

  Barry Allen : How?

  Iris West-Allen : You're my lightning rod, too.

  Barry Allen : Thank you.

  Iris West-Allen : Seriously? I mean, I know I've been gone for a while, but...

  Barry Allen : For reminding me that even the Flash has limits. Thawne couldn't accept that about himself, which is why he didn't survive.
