You're a hero, Barry. You offer protection, hope, light. What that man does is carrying out a dark reckoning for his city. It is a brutal, violent vision of justice, one we do not share here. If you truly think he's a hero, so be it. But he's not the kind you should be looking up to.

Science fairs and soccer games. No hint, no sign, no trace of the man you will be one day, for whom I have nothing but hate. And to be clear, nothing is forgiven. There will be a reckoning. I promise you, Barry Allen, that you will die.
