The solution to saving Iris was simple: get Snart to freeze her solid, then slide her ice block body into the shark's cell, which will make him sleepy and he will fall asleep cuddling her icy body. Barrytar will not be able to use his powers in there, and will be unable to pry the icy Iris teddybear from the shark's regenerating claws. Simple! Oh, and also dress Iris up like a female shark and then crank the heat up so the shark wakes up and gets jealous that Barrytar is trying to mack on his girl and rips Barrytar's head off.

What if Barry just took iris and traveled a few days into the future with her, then team flash hides her in the future

Can I have your job writers?

Except Barry would know the Savitar would know

 

[netguy503]

If there was only one episode (so, that's what a couple of days to them?) between them erasing The Flash's/Savitar's memories and Iris dying why......didn't they just leave Barry as he was for a couple days? Barry seemed to not be suffering any side effects from it and they got confirmation from Frost it was working on Savitar so why stop if only for plot reasons? They already messed Barry up, get past that date and the future could be changed and Iris could of been saved in which they could turn Barry back to normal.

But anyway, I think H.R. really screwed up this episode by giving Iris's looking to anyone that even looked like Barry (wasn't he included in the scenes to not tell him anything or Savitar would know?). If he had kept quiet I think the plan would have worked.

 

[Vengal]

Does Iris need to die for Wally to get powers? The mind wipe episode showed that if Barry didn't remember anything then Savitar wouldn't have given Wally powers. However for that to even happen in the first place savitar Barry had to exist.

So if they stop Savitar and Iris doesn't die does that mean no more kid flash?

 

[rackham]

that doesnt make sense

should fit right in with the show then

Except Barry would know the Savitar would know

Not if team flash (without Barry) took her and put her in a different earth...in the future


YOU DIDNT TRY HARD ENOUGH BARRY

This also crossed my mind.

 

[Teletraan1]

Honestly I liked Wally more before he got powers. Was designing engines, using his brain. Now he just runs into meat grinders endlessly. Same with Barry. Snart was out brainstorming him hardcore. Speedforce just makes you an idiot.

Instead of pleading with Savitar he should have just started running. He would have saved Iris 2x over if he wasn't standing there begging.

 

[CryptiK]

Its totally HR, they foreshadowed that shit so hard. It felt like this whole episode was a set up for it. Though that doesnt quite explain how randomly HR knew to talk about the room swap.

 

[Magwik]

I mean it has to be HR as a Wells can't stay around on the main cast for more than a season

 

[Monochromaticx]

its either HR or joe

reminder that the only one who did jack vs savitar was Jesse aka the best speedster

 

[Malreyn]

What's the chance that Iris is actually another time remnant of one of the Speedsters with the fake image Tech that they just used in this episode?

 

[BLOODED_hands]

I liked one reddit suggestion and that was to not show up at Infantino Street at all. Savitar and Iris would have been soooo confused lol.

Where the hell is Barry?! Damn.... Now killing you wouldn't be as satisfying as killing you in front of Barry and Company! Fine. Let me access my memories to see where they went.

 

[Begaria]

Barry could just decide not to make any Time Remnants to fight Savitar, since his future self said Savitar would just kill all of them save one, and Savitar then would simply just stop existing. Sure, Iris would still be dead (if she's dead), but then Barry breaks the time loop and fucks up Savitar's plan without having to throw him into the Speed Force.

Then again, "time travel = doesn't apply to you!" nonsense.

Or just not treat the Time Remnant like shit, like future team flash did.

 

[Monochromaticx]

Who was savitar in the comics.?

 

[tkscz]

Who was savitar in the comics.?

A Russian guy who got speed force powers before Wally/Barry. Instead of getting faster, he discovered all the things he could do with the speed force.

 

[caliph95]

Just some dude with a cult and a god complex

 

[BLOODED_hands]

Just a random dude.

Savitar is someone different in the comics. The savitar in this show is more reminicisent of a comic character called Godspeed who is also a future version of Barry Allen

Godspeed is not a future Barry.

 

[Xenoboy]

Wow, that ending has me shooked. I am still shaking, that message in the end combined with Barry running to her, feels bad man ;(
I really liked this episode, they really stepped up their game in these last few episodes. I'm starting to forgive for those Gorilla episodes. Just make a King v Grodd episode!

Cold was swagging as always and Tracy is very cute, I like that we have been getting some older actors in the show.

Godspeed is completely different

 

[Septimus Prime]

No, but seriously, they should have taken Iris to Supergirl's Earth.

You mean Blue Flash

Poster for Final Episode !

 

[carlsojo]

Savitar vs. Flash is such an eh fight in general, partially because speedster vs speedster has been overplayed to death.

Now Supergirl vs. Savitar... that would be a crazy awesome fight.

 

[Joni]

It is at least a nice poster. I wonder why no one else ever used orange and blue on a poster.

 

[Maddocks]

Season 5 they should go for Godspeed, Argus tries to harness the speed force and creates a speed force storm by accident and gives people flash speed but no control and have Godspeed be created from that storm and give it a flare and no hidden who it is crap.

Just have it be known the Rival style where he is known from the start and the question is how to stop him since hes so fast from killing other speeders and taking their speed.

That would be cool. Bring in some new speedsters and have Barry get attached before they die. Plus it would give them a way to get Barry a new girl since Iris is dead lol

Savitar would wreck Supergirl, I don't thin kit would be very fair.

 

[MisterRoboto]

It had to be Iris that died or there would be no Savitar. Isn't that the whole reason he has to kill her in the first place?

 

[caliph95]

But i thought the rules don't apply to him

Yes had to kill iris because that's what cause to be desperate enough to create remnants except one who goes crazy

 

[Calm waterfall]

I love the fact that Barry could not change the future, even though i like Iris.

I think we already know that the main villain of Season 4 isn't a speedster.

 

[Joni]

Savitar would wreck Supergirl, I don't thin kit would be very fair.

She is almost as fast as Barry but she can punch way harder without any run-up.

 

[caliph95]

That's why he said S5 not 4

 

[Neoxon]

That's why he said S5 not 4

Oh, right.

 

[Bunta]

I would think he would cease to exist once the date that Barry created the remnants passes, not the exact moment he killed Iris. Barry seemingly isn't even aware it wasn't Iris that died (if that is the case), considering he left Star labs so they could put their plan together (whatever that may have been).

 

[caliph95]

Why would the date matter the death of Iris is what drives Barry.
If the date matters it's makes even dumber they haven't dump on a different earth or erase his memory again

This is just so crazy it might just work

 

[DeviantBoi]

Poster for Final Episode !

I thought for a second that he was gonna turn blue when he was running towards Iris. That would make him fast enough to stop Savitar from killing her.

Maybe this poster is hinting at that.


Or they take the easy route and make Iris really be HR in disguise.

 

[Mariolee]

Iris is actually a time remnant of Barry in disguise.

Why not just keep Iris inside ARGUS HQ where they have META POWER DAMPENERS?

 

[HoopzBarkley]

So I seen the leaked finale videos and now some more pictures of the episode came out.
Looks like

Spoiler

Savitar might be helping the team with something that happens? The photos showed him standing with the team and barry

 

[Lord Frieza]

It makes sense, but they kind of cover this. Savitar will find some way to find and kill Iris eventually no matter where they hide her. Eventually, they will have to face him.

I mean, you know, they could hide her there until the Speed Force Bazooka is perfected, but...yeah, they want to get this season over with.
