Synopsis for "Ignition, Part Five: Secrets"
Batman informs Wally that a flood of memories came back to him as soon as he figured out that Wally was the Flash. Batman demands to know who tampered with everyone's mind. Batman explains he knew Flash operated out of Keystone City and that the current Flash was Bart Allen living with his guardians Jay Garrick. He checked out Impulse's school records and they were all forged. He checked out every Allen, including Iris who had a nephew, Wally. When Wally had no work history over the past two years and lost his kids in a fight with Professor Zoom the week Flash disappeared, he knew Wally must be the current Flash. As Wally hears this he starts having a flood of memories himself and remembers all the JLA secret identities. Batman asks who did it, and Wally tells him it was Hal Jordan. Batman mutters that it usually is an inside job. When Batman talks about getting Wally back to JLA, Wally zips Batman to Gotham and leaves him there as he has a few more things to finish first.
Linda Park leaves Iris Allen's place and tells her they don't keep secrets from each other. Iris picks up the phone and tells the other person that she didn't tell Linda yet even though she knows Bart is anxious.
Jared Morillo and Fred Chyre talk about the bad weather being a result of the Weather Wizard. They say they've caught most of the Rogues. Wally sneaks a peak at the police file. Linda surprisingly walks in and tells Wally they need to talk.
Ashley Zolomon is working late. Mr. Petrov walks in and makes several references to being smarter than everyone else and that some people will give you the cold shoulder for it.
Linda tells Wally she's dropping out of school over coffee. Wally realizes with his memories back that he's been talking to Leonard Snart at the coffee shop earlier when he was dressed as a civilian.[1] Wally thinks about Batman's comment of it being an inside job and realizes the an inside cop killer is probably Mr. Element.
Ashley realizes she walked out on Mr. Petrov as she was too focused on her own problems. She walks in and sees Mr. Petrov is dressed up and is really Mr. Element.
