Spoilers The Flash - Season 3

I realized something, with Julian as Alchemy...wouldn't criminal lawyers all over Central City cry for their clients' cases to be thrown out...when the story breaks of course...?

On a side note, it still irks me about where he came from. It was said he was around for an year. It would mean he popped up around the time they were beginning to encounter Zoom...
That's CCPD. The GCPD is over on FOX Mondays at 8.
Damn. CCPD...yes CCPD. Thank you

With the...absurdities they have been doing over at Gotham like Batman and Catwoman being a couple as teens, I'm surprised they aren't thinking about having Flash's parents or Joe West walking around (with Lenny :devil:) doing or saying something foreshadowing the existence of the Flash.

Julian only handled meta investigations.
 
And only in this timeline. No point going back to old episodes looking for signs of him.

Eta: this was in response to Snaploud's post.
 
I just watched the beginning of the first episode of season two. I stopped when Barry mentioned a six month gap between the singularity and the episode.
 
Enjoyable episode, but yeah I really don't understand why Caitlin's powers turn her evil when everyone else is fine. And ugh. Julian as Alchemy? Really?

It's not her powers doing it, it's her repressed anger and pain and mommy issues. It seems she has a lot of that buried beneath her normally calm and helpful surface, and that's the sort of thing that, at least in fiction, can lead to a "dark side" breaking free of the repression.

Honestly, I suspect it's as much a matter of expectation as anything else. Caitlin knows that her Earth-2 counterpart turned evil as Killer Frost, and so she associates that power with her fear of becoming like KF, and sometimes our fears can become self-fulfilling prophecies. She so completely convinced herself that having powers like KF would make her evil like KF that her belief made it happen -- essentially giving those darker urges an outlet to emerge, since she believed it wasn't really her doing it, it was her "evil side."

Well, somehow Julian didn't seem happy about it either - so there may be something interesting going on there.

Of all the comic-book-silly implausibilities in these CW Super Shows, the notion of a bunch of hipster kids secretly worshipping "The God of Speed" may be the goofiest. What kind of drugs do they do, in Central City?

I guess they are stereotyping Tom Felton, huh?

Probably the same as Star City-- Vertigo!

Yeah, that was a really bad decision on their part. It was too obvious from the start. I mean, the guy even uses the Philosopher's stone, and they cast a Harry Potter alumni for the role? He would have been so much better as a red herring. S'what I get for expecting too much from these shows. :)

Hey, on the topic of Barry's wealth, can anyone remember if "Wells" left him ALL his estate or just STAR Labs? Even if the patent money is barely covering upkeep and Caitlin/Cisco's salaries, Wells also had a pretty damn nice-looking house that I'd imagine would sell for a lot (though in the Berlantiverse, everyone seems to have a fairly spacious pad regardless of salary).
 
^Cisco's place seems reasonable. Not that big. And I believe Caitlin comes from a very well to do family of doctors. She isn't an ordinary family doctor with a small practice out in the suburbs. The Wests' house...looks about the right for Joe.

I believe they only mentioned Star Labs, but that leaves a lot open to interpretation. Star Labs could own billions in revenue-producing patents, or it could just be the building and a temporary operating budget. Also, it matters if Star Labs was a 100% privately owned company or a non-profit. Barry may simply be the Star Labs' designated trustee.
 
Was there even a board of directors/trustees?

Nobody was mentioned. However, Wells (Eobard) may have been the previous trustee, and his will may have merely requested that Allen take over in that role. We have no idea how Star Labs was set-up.
