Synopsis for "The Search for Barry Allen, Part 2"
On the wasteland world, Jesse Quick and Max Mercury defeat the raiders chasing Barry Allen, but when he does not recognise them they realise they are on the wrong Earth. The raiders' leader Terramongus attacks them.
On the dark world, Jai and Irey are confronted by Night-Flash, an alternate version of Barry. They attempt to run, and when Night-Flash sees Irey's speed he believes they are working for his enemy "Knives". He chases after them but they are able to escape when Jai punches him. Irey loses the device they need to return home and they hear Night-Flash catching up to them in the distance. A shadowy figure in an alley calls to them and they follow him.
On Earth-Flash.1 Wallace believes they have the wrong world, as Barry is calmly interacting with another version of Wally. However, Wally is not so sure, as Barry appears to be older than he was when Wally was Kid Flash. Barry and the other Wally split up so Wally tells Wallace to trail his younger self while he tries to talk to Barry. However, Barry sees Wally as the Reverse-Flash and attacks him.
Wallace trails the other Wally to his home, but after the teenaged Wally goes inside another, older Wally appears behind Wallace. He tells Wallace that he's retired as the Flash and Wallace is the hero Burst. To Wallace's shock he becomes older and his costume changes. Wallace's memories adapt to the new world and he goes inside to have dinner with Wally, Barry, Jay Garrick and young adult versions of Jai, Irey and Emiko Queen.
