Quotes 

• Iris West-Allen : You know what makes a great speedster? It isn't their speed. It's being the light everyone needs when the world grows dark.

• Barry Allen : Iris, I need you to run as fast as you can. On the water.

  Iris West-Allen : On the water? What?

  Barry Allen : Make sure you when you run you dig your heels in and you move back and forth in a tight formation.

  Iris West-Allen : Why?

  Barry Allen : So you drag as much water ashore as possible. Put out the cyclone.

  Iris West-Allen : You want me to create a 100-foot tidal wave? Are you crazy? I can't do that.

  Barry Allen : Yes you can. You told me that you used to be fearless. I know that you still are. You're the bravest person that I know. You can do this. I know you can. We all do. Now run, Iris. Run.

• Joe West : When I mentioned spending more time together, I meant family barbecues, not questioning people of interest.

  Iris West-Allen : I know. I just want people to know that I am not afraid to go out in the field every once in a while.

  Joe West : Well, who says you are?

  Iris West-Allen : Ralph.

  Joe West : Ralph? He should talk. He won't even leave the building.

• Iris West-Allen : Last year when I thought that Savitar was going to kill me, I was... scared out of my mind.

  Ralph Dibny : How did you deal with it?

  Iris West-Allen : It was really hard. But then I realized that if I hid from him, if I hid from the world, then... Savitar had already won. So I made the decision to not give into the fear. I chose to keep living.

  Ralph Dibny : Look, uh... what I said before about you never putting your life on the line, I was wrong. You make one hell of a Flash. In or out of the costume.

• The Flash : I lost my speed.

  Joe West : What do you mean you lost your speed?

  [Iris's hand is vibrating] 

  Iris West-Allen : Uh, guys, I think I found it.

• Dr. Harry Wells : Satellite is tracking temperature at the same intensity as the bank robbery, so...

  Caitlin Snow : That's him.

  Dr. Harry Wells : Yeah.

  Ralph Dibny : So who's that?

  Cisco Ramon : Matthew Kim.

  Dr. Harry Wells : Kim's gonna try and steal his powers.

  Cisco Ramon : All right, let's go.

  Iris West-Allen : [entering]  No. You guys are on point. I can do this.

  Barry Allen : You sure about this?

  Iris West-Allen : I have to, Barry.

  Barry Allen : All right, but remember, he can't touch you. Or he'll take your powers away, too.

  Iris West-Allen : Right.

  Caitlin Snow : Also, I'm not sure my clothes are gonna work this time.

  Cisco Ramon : I have a fix for that. It's the best I could do on such short notice.

  Iris West-Allen : Thanks, Cisco.

  [she changes at superspeed, leaving her civilian clothes behind] 

  Cisco Ramon : [insulted]  I got hangers.

• Iris West-Allen : Barry, when I was a reporter, I was always in the field putting myself in danger for a story. And after last year, for some reason that just stopped. Maybe it was because of Savitar, or maybe because you were gone into the Speed Force. I don't know, but... I quit my job. I joined this team, and now for the most part, I just stay here while all of you are out there putting your lives on the line.

  Barry Allen : Because of our powers.

  Iris West-Allen : No, it's not just that, Barry. And it took me getting these powers to realize it. But now that I'm the one that has it, it's my turn to do what all of you have been doing. To prove to myself that that fearlessness that I had is still in me.

  Caitlin Snow : [calling on the intercom as an alarm blares]  Guys, I think we found Frye's missing powers.

  Barry Allen : Then go get him.

• Iris West-Allen : What is all this?

  Dr. Harry Wells : This is gonna give us the edge we finally need to be smarter than DeVoe. Or me to be smarter than DeVoe, actually.

• Iris West-Allen : [Her website blog page]  After the Singularity -- How Central City Has Changed 10-6-2015 As we remember the day the sky opened up over Central City and changed our lives forever, it's remarkable to note how well our community has not only adjusted, but become stronger. Said Mayor Anthony Bellows at a particularly packed meeting of the city council last Thursday. Originally called as an emergency session to consider a re-zoning ordinance that would pave the way for a slew of major commercial construction contracts from out of state to be approved in Central City, the meeting quickly turned to the future, and the resilience of the city's population when it comes to facing major change. If there is one thing that's certain, continued the mayor, it's that the people of Central City don't shy away from change. We face it, we embrace it, and we thrive in it. While the optimistic tone struck a chord with supporters in the room who back the expansion of the out-of-state commercial contracts proposed, it also struck a nerve with those on the opposition. Representatives of the Central City Small Business Coalition arrived at the meeting prepared to protest the expansion of the construction contracts. And protest they did, seizing the microphone in the gallery at one point, chanting Progress Yes, more building No!, repeatedly. A spokesman for the group, who spoke with reporters after the meeting under condition of anonymity, commented that the city's abundant local businesses need support, and that it's not the job of the council to make it easier for outside Competition to move into the city. By the end of the meeting, both
