As filler episodes go, this week's Flash episode doesn't necessarily do a whole lot to progress the plot but leaves enough for us with DeVoe to make it an episode semi-worth watching. If I'm being honest, this episode wasn't memorable at all. I'm having trouble even remembering some minor things that happened because I found myself spacing out for a good deal of the episode.
But in all seriousness, I'm just having toruble caring about what's going on this season for The Flash. First, this episode had the subplot of Breacher asking Cisco to both fix his powers and to eventually take his place after he realizes he's no longer capable of vibing. It's not that this storyline is bad, but why should I actually care for a plot that I know won't matter within a few episodes? Does anyone honestly believe Cisco will leave Team Flash? No.
Other than the team finding the 11th bus meta, it was a big Ralph and Barry week. They disagreed on how things should be handled in the field and butted heads about it, but ultimately realized there isn't one right or wrong way to be a hero, you just have to get the job done. Oh and then there was the one out of nowhere scene with Wells going back in to see Gideon and basically acting like Eobard Thawne? What was that about? I have to imagine that's just a red herring, right?
