- TriviaDevoe telepathically making Joe put his handgun to his head but Joe being able to resist is similar to the episodes Grodd Lives (2015) and Attack on Central City (2017) in which Gorilla Grodd made him do the same thing.
- GoofsTeam Flash decides not to call on their friends to assist against Devoe as he has become too powerful to defeat. However, either Supergirl or the crew of the Waverider could have knocked out Devoe's satellites, which at the very least could have bought them some time.

I have no idea. He hasn't really shown that he's deserving of having an extended stay on this show. Do we really need to add yet another team member to this overcrowded show? Back to the stakes, what was really the impact of anything the Thinker did this year? Besides Harry having his mind go back down to a slightly dumber version of himself, what did this season do to bring a new dynamic to the show? For as much as season 4 and season 6 of Arrow are ripped apart, both of those seasons did things that significantly threw a wrench in the show's status quo. It's really this simple fact that killed this season finale for me.
We knew that Marlize was eventually going to side with Team Flash, we figured that the team would find a way to save Harry's mind (for the most part), and we knew they weren't going to allow the Thinker's plans to come to fruition. The surprises just weren't there. Even the last minute appearance of Nora (Barry and Iris' daughter) wasn't shocking, it just set up a story for next season. How creative....
