Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRip Hunter is identified by Eobard Thawne as the creator of the first successful time machine. He has been identified as a member of the time masters and will appear on DC's DC's Legends of Tomorrow (2016).
- GoofsWhen Dr. Stein is explaining the time travel calculations, he says they will "inject a hydrogen proton into the particle accelerator." Protons are the same, regardless of the element they come from. A hydrogen proton is the same as an oxygen proton or an iron proton or a plutonium proton. Elements are differentiated (partially) by the number of protons they have. Hydrogen has 1, oxygen had 8, etc. The subatomic particles are the same, so the phrase "hydrogen proton" is somewhat meaningless; however, In Particle Physics, hydrogen atoms are delivered in "packets" into the first stage of the accelerator (Linear Accelerator). These hydrogen atoms can only be used after their electrons are stripped away, leaving hydrogen protons. This is why they are known as hydrogen protons, and not simply protons.
- Quotes
Dr. Harrison Wells: What? No Big Belly Burger? It's one of the few perks of living in this time. We're out of cows where I come from. You don't care about that. You have questions. Go ahead.
Barry Allen: I'm not sure where to start... Thawne. That is your real name - Eobard Thawne?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Since the day I was born.
Barry Allen: And when was that?
Dr. Harrison Wells: 136 years from now. This's not what you wanna know. Go ahead, Barry. Ask it.
Barry Allen: Why did you kill my mother?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Because I hate you. Not you now. You years from now.
Barry Allen: In the future.
Dr. Harrison Wells: In a future. Yes. We're enemies, rivals, opposites, reverses of one another.
Barry Allen: Why? Wh-why were we enemies?
Dr. Harrison Wells: It doesn't matter. It doesn't... matter anymore. What matters is that neither of us was strong enough to defeat the other... until I learned your secret. I learned your name, "Barry Allen," and finally I knew how to defeat you once and for all - travel back in time, kill you as a child, wipe you from the face of the earth - but then you - future you, that is - followed me back and we fought. We both landed some pretty solid shots; and then, you - future you - got your younger self out of there. I was so mad, but then I thought... what if you were to suffer a tragedy? What if you were to suffer something so horrible, so traumatic that your child self could never recover? Then you would not become The Flash. And so I stabbed your mother in the heart, and I was free, finally able to return to a future without The Flash, only to realize that in traveling back I'd lost my way home, lost my ability to harness the speed force, and without it, I was stuck here, stranded in this time, unable to return to my own, and the only way back was The Flash - but The Flash was gone, and so I created him.
Barry Allen: Why train me? Why help me save so many people?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Because I needed you to get fast. Fast enough to rupture the space-time barrier and create a stable wormhole through which I could return home.
Barry Allen: Why would I ever do that?
Dr. Harrison Wells: Because, Barry Allen, if you give me what I want, I'm gonna give you what you want. You can go back and save your mother. You can prevent your father from going to prison. You can reunite the Allen family.
Barry Allen: No. No, I don't believe you. I want to kill you right now.
Dr. Harrison Wells: I know that rage. I used to feel that rage every time I looked upon you. And now, somehow, I know what Joe and Henry feel when they look on you with pride. With love.
Barry Allen: No. No. Don't you ever say that to me!
Dr. Harrison Wells: I know you're upset, but I'm giving you a chance. I'm giving you a chance to undo all the evil I've done. Don't you want that chance?
