If Orlin ever had any innate powers as Cicada he never showed them. Destroying the dagger was a logical way to render the original Cicada at least mostly harmless. The Flash sold Cicada as the main villain for the season consistently throughout, but the main character to support that idea was Nora. So did Ralph manage to save Cicada’s dagger in the present, and foil Eobard Thawne’s plans for the future? That’s the real question that the season 5 finale of The Flash needs to answer. Keep up with all our The Flash Season 5 news and reviews right here.How can you watch the season 5 finale of The Flash online? And with Nora locked up, we will see what happens with Thawne in 2049. Well kids, the Cicada threat ain’t over just yet, but it did get a lot more interesting in this nonstop ep. Stray thought #2: Well played that the time test between Thawne’s Spheres was named “Operation Shazam.” I wonder if that name has some significance in this universe.

Sure, it might muck up the timeline more, but it’s worth a shot. Stop the kid now to prevent the meta-killer in the future. Stray thoughts: I respect the need for consent in giving the comatose Grace the meta-cure, but c’mon.

(I do appreciate that Cisco define their relationship status by a Lostreference of “Not Penny’s Boat Big Deal.”) To borrow from another Spidey moment, perhaps this is the beginning Cisco’s own “Vibe No More” arc. He is also trying to keep his lives separate, and doesn’t want Kamilla in on this meta world. Ralph is an idiot with this scheme (as great as the Spider-Man call out is), and Cisco is having none of it. And, he hopes, that will lead to some radiation accident that will power her as a “Spider-Person” (complete with Thwipping movements). In a blatant multiverse callout of the Spider-Verse, Ralph “Peter Parkered” her to take photos for Iris’s Central City Citizen. And heartbreaking to see the younger West-Allen crumple in grief.īut hey, there were some laughs this week as well with Ralph trying to convince Cisco to get Facebook-official girlfriend Kamilla onto the team. And the scene sticks the landing – even though I am left wondering how much Sherloque cares about this team versus only caring about being right, and solving the mystery.īarry’s final moment of speeding Nora away into a cell. He is correct in accusing her of making puppets of all of them. Sherloque’s revelation is cruel, but not unwarranted. Dude needs to mind his own damn business on occasion, and stop preaching when he doesn’t have a stellar track record of, you know, breaking time and hurting others.)īut I digress, even with all the Cicada action, the final scene was the best of the episode. (Although Barry is particularly annoying, and often wrong, in his constant meddling in other people’s lives. She even tried to justify keeping her worlds separate by disagreeing when her dad scolded the meta mom that her family has a right to know about her powers. Now I am looking forward to this time traveling Cicada’s meta-murder rampage – especially since she is psychically bonded with Nora, and has access to Team Flash intel, such as the location of the “Starchives,” which contains Thawne’s Time Sphere, and other important goodies.Īfter all, how long has Nora endangered the team, and continued the ruse? She missed her chance to come clean. As a villain, he overstayed his welcome, but had an interesting death. Orlin’s death was not especially surprising since he was pretty much there throughout the episode to convince his niece to re-examine her murderous ways, and that her parents died accidently (and the police case file about it covered up). If Orlin hadn’t shown up to talk Grace down, Barry would be Flash fried. As her dark matter blade travels as fast as XS, who barely escapes with the civilian meta mom, Ralph and Cisco are unable to vibe to help the downed Barry. As she notes, there was not much enjoyment to be had by defeating Team Flash because it was too easy.

What I found particularly thrilling about Cicada-Grace is how darn good she is at wiping the floor with our heroes.
