Considering the reveal at the end I would think all of it was a lie. That grin it gave Wells is also probably a give away.

Wbat? Barry was talking about Wells knowing about they were doing the whole goddamn time.
I thought so too. Pretty dumb way for Iris to figure it out.

Baaarrrry, why did you eat my fries?

Short-form stories are just terrible for character development in general, especially action movies. There's just not enough time and not enough different situations to get a good grasp on people.

No DVR, or watching with impatient friends?
Absolutely not

I know he ages slower but I have a hard time believing his ability to think faster carries over to an increase in intellectual capacity. Especially to the point where he can program an AI.
Yeah, I suppose that could be it. Even if Barry invented Gideon it seems like a serious oversight for Wells to not lock out others from that room.
Super speed reading.

Again, that's a bit hard to believe. But maybe Barry creates Gideon in a future where AI technology is already advanced.

In the future, they have a Build-A-Bear Workshop equivalent, but for AI companions.
Pretty much this.

What I'm saying is that reading something doesn't grant you an increased intellectual capacity. I can read a whole lot about quantum physics but that doesn't mean I understand any of it to the point where I can come up with new ideas and theories.
Creating a sophisticated AI is - at the moment - exceptionally difficult, but I could accept it if Barry did it decades (or more) into the future during a time when most of the groundwork was already done for him (this is presumably what he'd read up on).
But then again why would Eobard want that (primitive and archaic - by his standards) AI?
Which he can do because he lives for a very long time. Are you purposely being dense or something? His powers give him the time and knowledge to make it happen, assuming she wasn't just lying for Wells.

Don't start being a dick head about it. I'm pretty sure you've done that before in this thread.
That's because you've been posting poor criticisms.

But to get there, we'll have to sit through 2020's season of Arrow which will contain flashbacks of this year of Arrow.
She said it in the preview comic so it is possible.
Also, maybe I don't remember last week's well enough, but I thought Everyman couldn't adapt to someone's powers? How was he able to vibrate his hand like Wells?
Did his hand actually vibrate? I remember him lifting it up but it didn't seem like it was vibrating to me.

another fantastic episode as usual. show's been straight quality except for the episodes with harrison's former assistant who looked like harry potter.
the way iris found out barry was the flash was lame as fuck though, not happy about that. plus i'd rather she know AFTER she was with barry rather than before. now it will just make her eventual attraction to him feel kind of unearned imo.

Yeah, he wasn't vibrating his hand. That was the first hint that something was off

On the Gideon thing... In the comics Wally spent a decent amount of time chilling in the future. Maybe Barry spends some time there too with access to all the cool technology?
The acting throughout the whole scene was lacking Wells' previous subtlety and depth. Tom Cavanagh acting so well to make it look like he's acting so poorly.

Green Arrow :O
Hawkgirl?? O:
Wow, that's a good catch! Green Arrow! Ooh! So I wonder if those rumors are true that Arrow will eventually be called Green Arrow.
Hawkgirl too =).
Edit:
She did or was about to? I need to rewatch it.
When Barry asked her who he was/how did she know him, she said he's Barry Allen, Founding Member of the...and then Barry cut her off.

Quality episode. Eddie keep taking those L's
That was an amazing episode. Carpet bombs dropping left and right. Everyone knows everything and it's all on for the last few episodes.
I just love how they both managed to keep it intense but then have Cisco dropping lines like "Is this Inception or Dreamscape?" and "I'm never ever gonna sleep ever again but yeah, I'm okay."
The last flashback with Wells talking to Barry, oh man that is some villainous shit.

Yeah, I was sceptical about how good The Flash would be with tv show time and budget constraints when it was first announce but it's been great apart from a couple of episodes.
I'm glad Iris now knows about Barry.
Wonder why RF took Eddie instead of someone more important to Barry like his dad or Iris.
Well's killed it as RF this episode. Just when you think the gangs got it all together RF shows that he was toying with them the whole time.

Very good episode. I liked how they showed the different reactions people had to Barry being in a coma via flashbacks. The Reverse Flash is once again on a completely different level than Flash and his team. I can't wait for the endgame to this.
I definitely am worrying about it falling prey to the OC syndrome, where they burn through so many storylines in S1 that they run out of steam in Seasons 2 and 3.
But we still have the introduction of the Reverse-Flash to look forward to! Can't wait to meet that guy and see how Barry first encounters him.

Not really worried for Season 2. There's still a ton of stuff then can elaborate on.
