Quotes 

• John Diggle : So, how does it feel being 30 all over again?

  Barry Allen : Unreal, I guess.

  John Diggle : Because it's special, Barry, which means it requires a special gift.

  Barry Allen : Dig, I...

  John Diggle : No, no, please, open it.

  [opening the case, Barry finds Oliver's Green Arrow bow] 

  John Diggle : We thought we lost it when Earth-38 was destroyed. But A.R.G.U.S. found it in National City. It's hard to believe it's been three years, right? Sometimes I'll be at the grocery store, man, or with my kids, and, uh... grief will hit me all over again.

  Barry Allen : Yeah. It's hard. We don't get the chance to say goodbye to someone.

  John Diggle : I'm sorry to hear about Caitlin, losing her so soon after Frost.

  Barry Allen : Eh, having Khione's helped. But something about it all still just doesn't feel right. That's why I-I can't accept this.

  John Diggle : Barry, Oliver would have wanted you to have this.

  Barry Allen : I'm sorry, Dig. Maybe we should just display it in the hall.

• Ramsey Rosso : The Flash and Green Arrow together again? I am honored.

  Green Arrow : Don't be.

  The Flash : Wally, you don't have to do this.

  Ramsey Rosso : Too late, Flash. Wallace worships a new faith now. He worships at the altar of Bloodwork.

• Barry Allen : Do you think I'm - doing enough with my powers - with my time here?

  Oliver Queen : Well, Barry, you tell me. Do you give people hope? Are you moving through your city like a - guardian angel? Do you make a difference?

  [Voice starts echoing and eyes start to glow] 

  Oliver Queen : That bolt of lighting chose you. Don't *ever* forget it. Oh, and

  [voice returns to normal. Eyes stop glowing] 

  Oliver Queen : Happy birthday.

  [Barry looks away for momenent. Turns back and realized Ollie has vanished] 

• Barry Allen : No. No, Ramsey's still messing with my head.

  Oliver Queen : Barry, you need to calm down.

  Barry Allen : You're not real. How did I get here? Wally, he was a blood brother. He attacked me. He killed me.

  Oliver Queen : Dying is the easy part. Remember?

  Barry Allen : It's really you.

  [hugs Oliver] 

  Oliver Queen : Yeah. Okay. Okay.

  [Barry hugs him longer] 

  Oliver Queen : Okay, let go. Barry, let go.

• Oliver Queen : The attack's starting. Ramsey's fed his cells into the breach. Soon, they are going to infect your world and all of the worlds yet to be born.

  Barry Allen : I have to stop him. You have to get me out of here.

  Oliver Queen : It's not that simple.

  Barry Allen : You have the power of a god. You can bring me back from the dead.

  Oliver Queen : No, I can't... not while there is a part of you that doesn't want to go back.

  Barry Allen : That's not true.

  Oliver Queen : You've always been a terrible liar.

• Barry Allen : Wait, hang on. You're not going to... boop me again, are you? It kind of killed the Speed Force last time.

  Oliver Queen : No, no, I'm not gonna-- not gonna boop you.

  [punches Barry] 

  Barry Allen : [wakes up in the living world]  Ow! That hurts.

  Oliver Queen : Living hurts. Add it to the list.

  Barry Allen : Wait. You came back, too.

  Oliver Queen : It's just temporary. I can only intervene when the Multiverse is in danger.

  Barry Allen : I think you missed me.

  Oliver Queen : [opens a case and grabs his bow]  Not as much as I missed this. Let's go kick some ass.

• Chief David Singh : Can you settle something for us?

  Barry Allen : Sure.

  Chief David Singh : See, I think I was a better CCPD captain because I'm not a meta-human. It keeps me objective.

  Kristen Kramer : Chief, having meta-abilities give me a better understanding of what meta-criminals go through and how they're thinking.

  Chief David Singh : Being human implies I'm treating meta-criminals and non-meta-criminals equally.

  Kristen Kramer : Actually, it implies you're more biased because non-metas set up the system in the first place.

  Chief David Singh , Kristen Kramer : What do you think?

  Barry Allen : Um, that... Central City is lucky to have you both.

• Ramsey Rosso : What have you done to me? I'm human again.

  Green Arrow : I've cleansed the entire Multiverse of your infectious cells.

  The Flash : Including the ones inside you.

  Ramsey Rosso : And you killed me. Now my HLH will return.

  Green Arrow : I took care of that, too - perks of being the Spectre.

  Kid Flash : So it looks like you'll be spending the rest of your human days as a regular criminal.

  Spartan : Where you're going to rot until old age, just like everyone else.

  Ramsey Rosso : No. I was going to cure death. I was supposed to save the world.

  The Flash : Don't worry. That's our job.

• Wally West : You know there's a whole party going on in there, right?

  Barry Allen : I just needed some air. Hey, thanks for coming all the way for this. How are the Himalayas?

  Wally West : Well, Bakinimal has been helping me a lot with my journey to enlightenment, which is good. Um, but when Iris told me about the Red Death, it kind of gave me an idea. You know how I can project my consciousness into the Speed Force? Well, I've been doing it to find alternate timelines.

  Barry Allen : What for?

  Wally West : Since there are other timelines, there's probably another me out there who has already achieved enlightenment and could help me find it, too.

  Barry Allen : Wow. I mean, you already seem so in touch with yourself. Can't you do it on your own?

  Wally West : I wish it was that simple. Um, true awakening requires a deep examination of the self. And when you have baggage like I do, it's just... it can hold you back.

  Barry Allen : What baggage? I just... I thought the whole point of you going to Tibet was to deal with things from your past.

• Barry Allen : You can't fool me again. Those visions you showed me last time, they were lies, made to tempt me!

  Ramsey Rosso : I never lied to you, Barry. I just showed you a future where you had the power to end death. But you rejected my offer. And now your friends are dropping like flies. Nash, Caitlin, Frost... it's quite the list.

  Barry Allen : You can't break me again.

  Ramsey Rosso : I don't need to, Barry. This time I have a more interesting target in mind, just as fleet-footed, too, only more perceptive.

  Barry Allen : Wally.

• Barry Allen : Wait. If you're here, that means I'm really...

  Oliver Queen : You're dead. Otherwise, why would I let you hug me that long?

  Barry Allen : But if I'm dead, no one's there to stop them. Iris, the baby, the-- the whole world is in danger.

  Oliver Queen : I know. But it's not just your world in danger. When I took on the power of the Spectre, I thought I was simply creating Earth-Prime. But I was also making something else-- a new Multiverse to replace the one that had fallen.

  Barry Allen : But when we fought the Red Death, she thought she escaped her timeline into an alternate one.

  Oliver Queen : She is from Earth-4125.

  Barry Allen : You're numbering them?

  Oliver Queen : I've had a bit of time on my hands-- keeping an eye on threats to these new worlds, like your friend Ramsey Rosso. He wants to spread in infectious cells to every world out there.

  Barry Allen : No, I mean, Ramsey's powerful, but he's not capable of something like that.

  Oliver Queen : Right, but with Wally by his side... Wally thought that he was projecting his consciousness in the Speed Force to reach alternate timelines, when, in fact, he was reaching other Earths. So, if Ramsey's control over Wally becomes permanent...

  Barry Allen : He'll gain control over the Multiverse, too.

• Oliver Queen : [Sliding check to Barry]  Can you get this?

  Barry Allen : Are you kidding? You're a billionaire!

  Oliver Queen : [Patting his pockets to show he has no wallet]  You can't take it with you.

• Ramsey Rosso : Why all the sour faces? Don't tell me I've missed the cake.

  Barry Allen : [zooping forward, he pushes Ramsey up against a wall]  What did you do to them?

  Ramsey Rosso : Is this how you greet an old friend, especially one that's just escaped A.R.G.U.S.? You know, I came right back here so we could pick up where we left off. And now I find out you're having a party without me.

  Wally West : Look, I don't know you, but I know that we can solve this without violence.

  Ramsey Rosso : Mr. West... I don't want violence. I simply wish to save the world.

  Barry Allen : You don't want to save anyone. You're a monster who wants to absorb us all into your sick mind.

  Ramsey Rosso : Is that such an unfair price to pay for immortality?

• Barry Allen : You hurt Iris, I will wipe every last one of your cells off this planet.

  Ramsey Rosso : Fear not. Your wife is perfectly safe and healthy, and she'll stay that way forever, which means your daughter will never know an orphan's grief. On the contrary, little Nora West-Allen would be the first blood baby born into a whole new world.

  [Barry punches him, which has no effect] 

  Ramsey Rosso : Your anger means nothing, Barry. Now, last time, I made you into a blood brother first, only for your meddlesome team to rise up against me. But this time, they won't have that chance. And soon, your meager healing factors will run out, too.

  Barry Allen : I don't know what you're up to, but you're not gonna get into my head again.

  Ramsey Rosso : But, Barry... I already am.
