Maybe a cousin?
Not in this reality, I guess. It would actually be cool, if there was once a world changing time travel where the core is still as it used to be, but minor things changed.

We don't actually know that, though. He could be a cousin, or a half-brother or something.

Maybe she has an older brother that was in college during those flashbacks

"Diggle, there's something else I haven't told you about my time on the Island"
"HOLY CHRIST IN HEAVEN, OLIVER, WHAT NOW?"
"While there, I met... 'metahumans'. People with supernatural abilities. Dangerous people."
"I'm gonna fucking throttle you."

More Flashes are likely coming in later seasons. And it makes sense Wally won't be Iris brother. You really would want another ordinary human to stick around doin nothing for 2-3 seasons before he gets his powers? Cousin makes a lot more sense

What was so amazing about what he did?

From Wiki
So yeah, he was moving fast
And on that note, did the writers already forget about Barry's clothing catching fire due to friction?

Yes, but lighting travels a lot slower than the light itself, so the talk about aproaching speed of light doesn't make sense.
Also..this guy was bassicaly firing up electricity from his hands. There's no reason to assume he was shootin as fast as lighting actually travels. We could see the discharge travel, fast, but it was visible. On that short distance real lighting would just happen, it would be to fast to register any movement
Haha, I love these

Forreal.
I'm just going to assume that Ollie got stranded in the same island as the cast from Lost.
Watch out for some random Darma Initiative cans of beans littering his cave.
flash salmon ladder training incoming?
Barry was far away. Yet he started running AFTER the bolt left his hand, caught up to it, passed it, and had time to look at it and to his perception it was moving in slow motion. He was going fast. Fast, fast. I don't care how slow the electricity was moving. Barry was going much faster than it was.

snuckered? Good job there Amell.
We don't know that. We haven't learned anything about Iris's mother. If she's still alive, it's possible the West siblings are out there somewhere, as is Wally.
In fact, I think we'll see Wally this season. Early next season at the latest.

Snap indeed.
Good casting choice on the second one, didn't know that yet. Watching his most famous show right now.
Alias?
Alias had much more viewers.

The uhh "Iris Card" said she's an only child.
Yeah, certainly wasn't going that fast... Umm, creative license/dramatic effect, that's it!

Don't forget the Polar Bear. Ollie will have a crazy story involving the Polar Bear in year 5.
I've said as much before.
But we also don't know what happened to Iris' mother... so maybe a step/half-brother somewhere?

Wally will end up being a Cousin if anything. But I'm fairly certain he'll be way younger and only appear as a "tease." I don't think DC plans for any of these shows to go Smallville/Supernatural long.

lol naivete.

I said plans and I meant it. Arrow, for example, gave itself a definitive style-ending date by having Ollie be missing for 5 years and doing flashbacks in time with the seasons. So if the show gets to 6 seasons, they can't rely on writing portions of the show in the past to give perspective on the present.
Iris being written as an only child is clearly to avoid having to cast Wally as a recurring character. Berlanti wants a Barry-Flash Universe only. Similarly to Berlanti using a Supergirl that has no Superman relation.

I swear they are just giving us shipping bait now lol. Those looks...
They're just needling us at this point.
They know we hate Iris, and have made Caitlyn more Felicity esque as the show goes on.
Those bastards.

Let's not repeat the Arrow thread of hating the destined partner. Iris isn't bad, they're just making her too Lois-esque at the moment.

Why do people hate Iris? I don't get it.
Iris to be a vigilante by season three confirmed!

What's this "we" stuff, Kemosabe?

Not necessarily lighting current doesn't travel at the speed of light. He still must have been moving ridiculously fast but nowhere near speed of light yet.
Hmmm....
People hate Laurel so much that they're projecting that hate onto Iris because the two fit similar roles.
Season 1 and 2 only dealt with the first year on that island

Hate is irrational so if you don't already "get it," you probably never will.

I recall the Producers saying that the Flashbacks would be in-time with the seasons. So S1 = Year 1, S2 = Year 2, etc.. however that could have changed in implementation but I can't recall at the moment if it did or not. I can't think of anything that expressedly shows that S1 and 2 were the first year and S3 is the second though, so can you clarify?

Iris better find out that Barry is both 1) The Flash and 2) a lying prat by the end of this season.
