Welcome to the team, Kamilla.

Your creation was unplanned,

but I know you'll make a useful addition.

Where's my counterpart?

She's no longer a problem now.

I don't have much time before Iris realizes I'm gone, so listen to me, this is important.

Six years ago,

I created a device capable of converting light into energy.

I called it the Prismatic Refractor.

It looked like this.

I need you to retrieve it for me.

♪ ♪

- It's beautiful.
- That's a replica.

I made it here in the Mirrorverse, but my R-CEM rejected it, I believe it needs the original in order to function.

What's the R-CEM?

A thing that will ensure the success of my long term plans.

Where do we start?

My husband, Joseph, he...

underestimated the value of the Refractor and sold it to Mercury Labs a few months ago.

Find a way in, replace the replica out with the original, and you bring it to me.

- Do not let me down.
- Success is assured.

[EXCITING MUSIC]

♪ ♪

I've officially hacked every Quantum Kinematic database on the planet.

You know what I found out about Artificial Speed Forces?

Thawne built one, and that's it.

And I doubt he's gonna tell us seeing how he's Linda Blaired our pal Nash, and you know, he kinda wants to m*rder the hell out of us.

If Thawne can figure it out, then so can we.

In the meantime,we need to make sure the Flash doesn't lose his powers.

The Speed Force may be gone, but there's still a residual amount of speed left

- in your DNA.
- Until we figure out how much, we need to manage your speed output.

- How do we do that?
- I call it the Speed Gauge.

It will measure the intensity of the velocity you're using by color. So, right now, it's black.

That's neutral... means you're not using any speed at all.

If you're using a minimal amount, that's green.

The yellow is next, then orange, and obviously red is the maximum amount.

At this point, I don't recommend operating beyond green.

And we're not just talking about running, okay?

- Speed thinking...
- Speed healing...

Flash time.

All of these things could deplete your meta-abilities.

- You have to be careful.
- Guys, it's not that simple.

I'm supposed to keep the city safe.

Team Flash! It's your pal, Nash.

Let me out!

Guys, are we sure that's Nash?

Or Thawne playing possum?

Let's find out.

I hear you've got an update for me on the Carver RICO investigation.

Just sifting through the paperwork, I found evidence of multiple cover-ups.

Homicides being filed as accidents, missing person cases buried by falsified paperwork.

And every victim has one thing in common.

You think Carver has a mole inside CCPD?

Somebody has been helping him evade criminal charges.

The question is, why?

This is, uh, outstanding work, Joe, but investigating a mole, that's... that's a job for internal affairs, not for us.

[SCOFFS] We can't trust I.A. or anybody until we find out who Carver's bought.

I mean, Barry agrees.

Hold on, Flash has seen these files?

Yeah.

Joe, this is not meta-related business.

Is there a chance that this is becoming personal?

I mean, I would totally understand given what Carver's done to Iris.

This is still about bringing a criminal to justice.

And we will, but Joe, this is your first year as captain.

If your people think you suspect one of them of being a mole, and you're wrong...

Have a look.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

So this Thawne... got the red eyes and vibrates, but he's also a Wells?

Yeah. That's him.

How did you...

I've been seeing a lot of Wells lately.

I mean, up here. A lot.

I don't know how many there are, but the wizard Wells, annoying.

French Wells... [SIGHS]

New York City Wells... actually he's all right.
And then Harry Wells.

Nash, Harry's dead. They're all dead.

Hey, guys? I think you should see this.

Let's go.

Let... come on. Let me out!

So, at first glance, Nash's brainwaves seem totally normal.

No anomalies or inconsistencies.

But when I take a look at them in D, it appears that there are multiple brainwaves intricately tangled together.

[MYSTERIOUS MUSIC]

When the Multiverse collapsed in Crisis all of the Wellses must have channeled into the only surviving doppelganger.

Multiple psyches camped out in Nash's brain.

It's like Tyler Durden times a thousand.

Tyler Durden. Great reference.

"First rule of fight club is..."

Kay, can we not talk about "Fight Club"?

Yeah, that's it. So how many Wells are we talking about here?

How many universes were there in the multiverse?

What?

Okay, wait, no, this doesn't make any sense.

I mean, Thawne wasn't even a real Wells.

He k*lled Harrison Wells, took over his body, and fooled us for months.

This is a psychopath we're talking about that is trying to take over my body!

Let's get him out before he resurfaces!

Come on!

I mean, there's no medical procedure or device that could separate brainwaves.

Not on this stupid Earth there's not, but hello,

Multiversal traveler, anyone? Right?

I have a neuro-splicer here in my bag.

Can you... can you get it please?

Will work just fine.

Actually help me out stop an invasion of psychic starfish on Earth- .

In the little... yeah, that's it.

That was not pretty, although, to be honest, I don't know if the splicer can separate thousands of brainwaves all at once.

It will be if we supercharge it with the EMP from your gauntlet.

Yes, the gauntlet, yes!

Just make sure that when you charge the EMP that it's , volts per meter,

Better, now that you're not trying to k*ll him.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

I don't know.

Nash needs help, not maiming.

You can't be here, Barry.

♪ ♪

- Why not?
- Because your Speed Gauge registered a massive loss of speed, which means not only does using your powers affect it, but so does your anger.

Caitlin, I'll be fine, all right?

And if I need more speed, I'll use a booster like Velocity-X...

Oh, great, so you're just gonna start taking speed steroids now?

Barry, every test we've run says that physiologically, you have changed drastically, so we have no idea what Velocity-X would do to you.

It could hurt you, it could hurt others...

Other people are already hurt.

I mean, we have no idea what Thawne is doing to Nash right now.

And he could do even more damage to you if he just gets under your skin again.

Okay, got your message about Thawne, so I brought, uh, holy water,

uh, garlic, wooden stake, salt, obviously, and Ouija board.

- Cecile.
- What?

It's an exorcism.

It's not like we can be too prepared.

This isn't some kind of vampire demon, this is... this is something else.

Oh, my God.

Everything that Nash is feeling inside, it's still just raw hatred.

What we think of as Thawne is actually just a series of negative tachyons inside Nash's body.

So we gotta hit him with positive tachyons to force Thawne out.

That's why we need the PTD, or the Positive Tachyon Device, and not a Ouija board. No offense.

Okay, so, what do you need me for?

You're gonna be my Thawne detector.

I need you to psychically monitor Nash and tell me when he's free from Thawne's influence.

I put in a call to A.R.G.U.S.

Until they have it in their custody, I'm not letting it out of my sight.

Well, we could keep it here at S.T.A.R. Labs for the time being.

If Sunshine is as ruthless as Dr. Light and Ultraviolet, then she's coming after that Refractor again, and if she shows up at S.T.A.R. Labs, the Flash isn't gonna be able to do anything to stop her.

Let A.R.G.U.S. take it.

Barry's right about Sunshine.

What if she strikes during the transfer to A.R.G.U.S.?

Let me worry about that.

Taking down metas and protecting people.

The Flash isn't supposed to have limits, Iris.

Uh...

Look, if Thawne gets his powers back,

I won't be able to stop him.

Just like I can't stop Sunshine.

Well, maybe the Flash can't stop them, but...

Barry Allen can.

- Are you okay?
- He will be.

I need a nap.

You're okay. You're okay.

Nash, I'm here. I'm here.

[GASPS]

It was my fault.

[SOMBER MUSIC]

It was all my fault.

The satellite scans say there are no traces of Thawne's negative tachyons to be found in any organic matter on the planet.

As for Nash,

Cecile confirmed that she didn't feel any of Thawne's energy inside.

According to three-dimensional imaging, Nash's brainwaves are Thawne-free.

I guess this means S.T.A.R Labs has successfully completed

- it's very first exorcism.
- Thawne's gone.

- For now.
- Right.

Thawne's tachyons might've dissipated, but they weren't destroyed.

Which means he's not dead. Just formless.

He's probably out there looking for another body right now, like a red-eyed, pissed off, Voldemort.

He comes back, we'll be ready.

I'm gonna go check on Nash.

Are you, uh... are you good?

Yeah. [SIGHS]

I have someone I should check on too.

What was it like?

Like being in fog.

You know what it was like?
It was like being underwater.

I could see, I could hear, but it was... it was hazy, I couldn't do anything... well, basically, it sucked.

You're free of it. Free of Thawne.

As for the other Wellses, their brainwaves are unfortunately still entangled with yours.

So they're as much a part of you now as yourself.

Right.

Wait, what?

Mm-hmm.

You mean I'm gonna keep hearing...

- Yeah.
- I'm gonna keep seeing them.

Yeah.

[SIGHS] Crisis of infinite Wells.

Well, I've had worse. Hey, look, credit where credit is due. I know that without your help, we don't get the psychopath out of my body, so for that, I'm grateful.

Thank you.

See you around Earth-Prime, kid.

Aren't you forgetting something?

I... I don't think so.

I made a lot of discoveries in my career, but...

She was the best discovery...

You know, she treat... she was...

Just like a daughter...

To me, so...

- And Allegra?
- What about Allegra?

Sure, she's not Maya, but you did help her with her powers.

But, you know, we got off to a rocky start.

There's no point in making it a rocky ending.

- Nash.
- What?

Pick a Wells. Any Wells.

- Do I have to?
- No.

It doesn't matter; I got off to a rocky start with all of them.

- What's your point?
- My point is,

I get how difficult it is to separate your feelings about a person from their doppelganger.

Did I ever tell you about the time I met Harry?

You didn't. That's the Earth- Wells?

- The very one.
- All right, go ahead.

When I first saw him, all I could see was Eobard Thawne.

♪ ♪

But when I saw him, when I really saw Harry for who he was...

I became his friend.

He became mine.

Yeah, you got off to a bad start with Allegra, but it's not too late to build something good.

[CLEARS THROAT]

You're a good egg.

You're not getting sappy on me, are you?

No.

No.

- Good.
- Good.

He's right.

Ramon, he had a second chance with Allegra.

It's what we've been trying to tell you.

[CHUCKLES] You think you're so smart.

And he's gone.

Well, that's gonna take some getting used to.

Caitlin, I... I need to apologize.

I didn't follow your advice, and you got hurt because of me.

- I'm sorry.
- It's okay, Barry.

I'm on the mend. Feeling better already.

So, we're okay?

Always.

Status report: Nash is physically fine, but emotionally destroyed, and Cisco is completely bushed.

[SIGHS] You guys make up yet?

- Mm-hmm.
- Thank God.

Guys, are we sure creating an artificial Speed Force is the way to go? I mean, anyone who came in contact with Thawne's Speed Force got hurt.

Ours will be different.

Yeah, but we still don't even know where to start.

Actually, I do.

Every time Thawne tried to hurt me using Nora's memory, really what he did was reminded me how much I loved her.

Made me realize that she's the answer.

And no one saw you?

CCPD was busy fighting Sunshine.

In and out and no one noticed.

So my husband stopped looking for me, but... apparently still goes out looking for my toys.

You did very well.

And as long as we stick to the plan...

BOTH: Success is assured.

And I'm one step closer to liberation.
