Quotes 

• Barry Allen : Satellites say it's just a small, everyday earthquake.

  Iris West-Allen : Usually we have to kiss first to make the ground quake.

• Iris West-Allen : Babe? You home?

  [Barry speeds past, setting up a romantic candlelit dinner] 

  Iris West-Allen : Well, the Speed Force is definitely fixed, because the loft did not look like this a second ago.

  Barry Allen : You like it?

  Iris West-Allen : I love it. Like the trip to Maui yesterday and the fresh crepes this morning from Paris. You, Barry Allen, are the most romantic husband ever.

• Barry Allen : Save your work. You can finish writing in the beach villa I just rented us in Monaco.

  Iris West-Allen : [he whooshes away and back with a suitcase]  Oh. You mean leave right now?

  Barry Allen : Yeah. For a romantic villa. In Monaco.

  Iris West-Allen : Barry.

  Barry Allen : Look... you're working. I get that that's important.

  Iris West-Allen : Yeah.

  Barry Allen : [looking over her shoulder]  But you were just staring at a blank screen when I...

  Iris West-Allen : Fathwoomed in?

  Barry Allen : Yeah. And you know what's great when you're stuck? Clearing your head in Monaco.

• Iris West-Allen : Barry, we have traveled the globe nonstop all this past week.

  Barry Allen : Yeah, 'cause you deserve the best.

  Iris West-Allen : Are you okay?

  Barry Allen : Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just... I'm trying to sweep my wife off her feet for a romantic getaway.

  Iris West-Allen : Which, I appreciate, but...

  Barry Allen : Iris, will you please just let me make this up to you? Please?

• Iris West-Allen : Zoop me to paradise.

  Barry Allen : Don't you wanna pack your laptop?

  Iris West-Allen : Uh, no. You know what? I need to take a break. You're right. Surf and sand sounds perfect right now.

  Barry Allen : [his phone buzzes]  Kadabra's just escaped custody. He's loose somewhere in A.R.G.U.S.

  Iris West-Allen : Go.

  [seeing he's relucant] 

  Iris West-Allen : Go.

• Allegra Garcia : Hey. Got your text.

  Iris West-Allen : Great. Sorry to drag you away, but I need those notes on the Mirrorverse article. We need to go to press ASAP. Online viewership is down 73%, and I think that my article could be what the Citizen needs to pull us out of the financial hole that Mirror-Me put us in. Ooh. Did you get me a TV shirt?

  Allegra Garcia : [tossing one over]  Yes.

  Iris West-Allen : [giving it a once-over]  Thanks. Cute.

• Iris West-Allen : So, stop burying the lede. Tell me what you think. Good, huh?

  Allegra Garcia : Well, it was really well written.

  Iris West-Allen : [expecting more]  Okay. Come on. Pretend you're my editor. Lay it on me.

  Allegra Garcia : It stinks, okay?

  [showing Iris the article with proofreading edits in red pen] 

  Allegra Garcia : This part about the explosion at McCulloch Tech is straight out of CCPN's report. This section on Eva's framing of Sue Dearbon was already covered to death by CC News Network. And was this quote from that Maurice guy even fact-checked?

  Iris West-Allen : [taken aback]  Okay. Is there anything else?

  Allegra Garcia : Yeah. You were in the Mirrorverse the longest and knew Eva the best. You're the expert. So where's anything about your experience? 'Cause what's missing from this is you.

  Iris West-Allen : I'm the reporter, not the story.

  Allegra Garcia : This time, you're both. Look... there are people out there just like you who wish they hadn't been a part of this story. But they were. You're their voice. So try again, for them.
