Notes
- The Artificial Speed Force causes Barry to be gifted enhanced intellect like DeVoe; the super speed thinking also makes him able to see the imminent future.
- Iris West is finally freed from her imprisonment into the Mirrorverse but she was left catatonic as a consequence of being forced out of that dimension.
- Eva McCulloch is planning to replace Earth-Prime residents with her Mirror duplicates.
- It is revealed that the original Harrison Wells has been somehow resurrected on Earth-Prime.
Trivia
- Barry's super speed thinking causes him to become an evil, cold-hearted version of himself, much like DeVoe was after being empowered by the S.T.A.R. Labs' particle accelerator explosion.
- The Babel Protocol is a reference to the iconic JLA: Tower of Babel storyline where it was revealed that Batman had plans to neutralize the Justice League.
- Cisco reveals that Team Flash also has a contingency plan for Barry.
- It is shown that Team Flash stores its fallen comrades' memorabilia in the S.T.A.R. Labs.
- They also add Nash Wells' bandolier to their collection.
- However, it should be impossible for Jesse and the Multiversal Wells' mementos to physically exist on Earth-Prime as, after the Crisis, it never interacted with other realities so they should have never physically existed in the new reality.
