The Flash (2014 TV series) season finale

That season finale was awesome. So many questions. But just in case you haven't seen it yet, and so as to not spoil you, I won't mention specifics here on your talk page until you respond that you've seen it. Flyer22 (talk) 01:07, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

I just finished watching it. I really liked it, though I don't like the perceived end to Wells. I like Tom Cavanaugh. I'm hoping with the Multiverse storyline next season we will have him back. I really liked Jay Garrick's hat coming through the wormhole.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 04:57, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

I enjoy Wells a lot on the series, especially Cavanagh's portrayal of him, and I grew so used to Wells's relationships with the main characters that I would hate to see him go for good. I know that Wells is not meant to work with them indefinitely, but they mesh so well together. I mean, I love his dynamic with Barry. I think that he will be back. I don't think that the writers would make it so that Wells and Eddie never pose a future threat for The Flash. I think that something with that wormhole is going to facilitate their return, despite the scientific aspects of what a wormhole is.

Regarding The Flash not saving his mother, I think that the only reason he didn't is because of the signal his other self gave him. Well, most likely that was the initial reason. At first, I thought that the other self was simply stating, "No, not yet." But, clearly, Barry interpreted the matter as "No, don't save her." The other self likely knows what would happen if Barry did, and that matters are better off with her having died.

Regarding Iris reentering into a relationship with Eddie, the choices she makes regarding her love life confuse me. Flyer22 (talk) 05:36, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, I read that Cavanaugh will still be a regular next season. So, I'm excited for that. I thought that he was saying "not yet" too, but realized that Barry saw that as "don't do it". I'm wondering when we're going to get the brighter red suit and the white symbol that he was wearing from the future. Interesting thought though....if Eddie killing himself in that timeline destroyed Eobard from the future, then wouldn't that alone of prevented Barry's mom from dying? I mean, it would suggest that Eobard was never born, and thus could not have gone back in time to kill Nora. Everything should have reset to the original timeline for Barry, where he doesn't get his powers until later. Hmm...

I think Iris' choice makes sense. Just because she knows that her future is to marry Barry doesn't mean that her feelings for Eddie would automatically be turned off.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 17:30, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

I didn't know for certain if he'd be back as Wells because I hadn't read about it (well, I mean I knew, as indicated above, but I didn't know it was confirmed); thanks for letting me know. Great news. And very interesting question and point about Eddie killing himself; I think there might be one or more time paradoxes in the next season. They messed with history so much that there has to be some consequence for that.

As for Iris, yes, I know that she has strong feelings for Eddie, but Eddie was on-point about Iris having strong feelings for Barry as well, and that there were three people in the relationship. I think that, taking her actions, Joe's words, Barry's words and Eddie's words into account regarding her love life, she loves Eddie, but is in love with Barry, especially given the alternate universe in which she essentially confessed this to Barry. Flyer22 (talk) 03:16, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, I feel like that was a goof on their part. I don't think they realized that Eddie killing himself should have effectively reset the timeline and Nora never should have died. Oops. LOL.

Well, Iris telling Barry she was in love with him was brought on by an intense emotional response, which was why it didn't happen again when Barry confessed his love to her. I also don't think that Iris' decision to be with Eddie was a completed one. There was nothing to say that a week, month, etc. from that point she wouldn't have realized she did not want to be with Eddie and broken it off. If Iris proved anything this season, though, it was that she doesn't like other people thinking for her and telling her what she needs to do. So, Eddie, Joe, and Barry confessing the "truth" wouldn't prompt her to just accept it at face value.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 20:22, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree with you on all of that about Iris. As we know, Barry was told why Iris reacted differently in that alternate universe as far as love confessions go. But even before it was explained to him, I assumed it was something like that. Or rather that different circumstances can lead to different responses. Sorry for the late reply, by the way; I got sidetracked. Flyer22 (talk) 04:08, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
