Seems like some of those scenes are from the week after.
The Firestorm stuff.

My pie n the sky prediction is
Wells is going to try to body swap with Barry. He's unable to control the speed force adequately without the suit and is progressively vibrating towards complete paralysis. He wants to switch his body with Barry's but only just before Wells is about to become paralyzed indefinitely. This would avoid any chance of Barry reversing the mind switch. Wells will actually succeed in body swapping for a short time until Barry has some kind of epiphany or zen moment which then allows him to control Wells' body. He'll go out and defeat Flash as the Reverse-Flash and then reverse the mind switch. Barry will have his body back and Wells will be paralyzed. Kinda dark, now that I think about it.
Basically, I think he's losing control of the speed force and needs the suit to stabilize the output.
 
Can we talk about Malese Jow now? Or as I like to call her, mini Moon Bloodgood

i'm guessing you missed tonights episode of Arrow?

One episode doesn't change anything. Had to deal with watching her for 2.5 seasons now. At this point, the only thing that might be interesting about the character would be if she was revealed to have been Vince McMahon all along.
 
I love how Hartley spoke Spanish to Cisco, French to Caitlin and Latin (I think) to Wells. Adds a whole exotic Bond-villain flair to the whole thing.
 
Decent enough episode even if it is one of the weaker ones for me this season. Pied Piper was an ok Villain I suppose. I did like how darn brutal some of his remarks were to the Flash team "Never did get that wedding invite". Wish they hadn't done the being captured was all part of my plan. Getting a tad sick of seeing that particular villain plan nowadays.
Iris becoming a journalist works, gives her something more to do in the show at least. Also nice to see Speed Force finally get a mention in the show.


Going be fun seeing Mark Hamill ham it up.
 
In regards of last week's episode, I'm rather surprised they didn't show case Snow and Wave freezing/melting bullets or able to create huge ice/barriers to really showcase why the cops wouldn't want to deal with them.
 
So why is Hartley put in that prison cell where all the other metahumans go? He has no powers. He should just be in a normal prison.

That was my biggest problem with him being locked up. It's really inconsistent because why do Cold, Heatwave, and Clock King get carted off to normal prison then? Obviously the Star Labs thing is a plot device to put away the Villain of the Week without killing them off, but it is super weird when you think about it.

Season is kinda dragging for me honestly. The crossover and mid-season finale episodes were fun, but I'm pretty lukewarm on the "Villain of the week, lesson of the week" format. I get that they are pretty much making Season 1 a drawn out origin story, but it's the same cycle + a tiny Dr. Wells stinger at the end.

I don't think Pied Piper knows Barry's identity. He knew that The Flash was connected to Star Labs, but I don't remember him making a mention of Barry at all.
 
Process of elimination, surely. Unless Star Labs has more people working they're than the four we know about.

Well Barry works for the Central City Police Department. Him visiting the lab is explained away from him doing it for his job, same way that Joe is there as well. And I don't think Pied Piper dealt with Barry at Star Labs, outside of encountering The Flash. There really isn't any reason he should know who Barry is, or exists. At least that I saw.
 
I don’t think its anything to do with him knowing Barry’s identity (Since he doesn’t), its more the fact that he knows about Star Labs working with the Flash. Of course, when you add in the fact he is a genius hell bent on revenge it makes more sense to lock him up where you know he wont be able to escape.

The bigger question is how three full-time people at Star Labs do so much shit on a weekly basis. I mean before the Accelerator went boom there were at least a dozen employees there.

I don't think they do anything besides helping Barry at this moment.

I know. But Cisco is inventing new tech on a weekly basis, and physically making it. It's an awesome character trait, but he'd made a fully working COLD GUN in secret without anyone else at Star Labs knowing about it. Within weeks of meeting The Flash. That's some Lucius Fox level shit.

Then again we have Felicity farting out computer programs while watching Big Bang Theory.
That takes a lot of impact for me for Cisco's ability.
 
Assuming we even get a Wally, sure that too. I was more pointing out how she floats from CW show to CW show, always a guest star, never recurring.

My gut tells me that there's a good chance there's going to be another Particle Accelerator explosion, and Wally's going to be introduced after he gets superpowers.

So its OK to lock a guy away in solitary confinement for life just because he knows Barry's identity? The Pied Piper had only caused a bit of vandalism at this point yet gets life in prison without trial.
I can understand Ollie locking people up without trial because he does what he needs to and has no issues killing or torturing when its needed but Barry enjoying locking people up like this doesn't fit him supposedly being the boy scout hero.

Attempted murder is a bit worse than "a bit of vandalism."
 
I think at some point in the show we'll get a Barry who reveals his identity to the public. It kind of goes hand in hand with who the Flash is, the "blue collar super hero" who knows everyone's names. I think it would work well as a season finale.
