Flash: What I didn't get is what Cisco saw/heard from replaying Reverse-Flash-in-the-cell that made him figure out it was Wells. What did he learn?
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I think that he figured out that the "trapped speedster" was actually an illusion, and the only person who could have created that was Wells.

I'd like to know where the hell Barry, Cisco, and Caitlin think they got the moral authority to imprison people indefinitely (obviously Wells is a supervillain so he's worried about expediency, not ethics). Holding them on scene until the cops make an arrest would be fine, as would loaning their facilities to the police or feds for detainment of metahumans who might escape ordinary jails. But I'm really disappointed that Hartley didn't throw civil rights in Cisco's face, when the latter was acting like a prison warden.

And obviously Joe Wells has to know about the pipeline, because he knows the metahuman criminals aren't ending up in Central City lockup. They're all a little too cavalier about Little Guantanamo.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'm kind of surprised that Argus hasn't stepped in to take them. Or maybe that was the argument Wells used on the junior partners, that the prisoners were better off being held at Star Labs than than handing them over to Argus (or Eiling).

IMDb says he's 51. Dude is aging VERY well.
I have to handwave the prison in Pipeline in order to enjoy the show, because not only is it totally ethically abhorrent, it makes no goddamn sense on practical standpoint as well.

We just watched iZombie, and that was SO. MUCH. FUN!!! It's definitely replacing SHIELD for watching as it airs.

If I can manage it, I want to try to keep the same thing going where I watch SHIELD and then follow it with a fun iZombie chaser.

Are you watching The Flash? It's way more fun than Arrow, and a great lead-in to iZombie.
