WARNING: SPOILERS/NSFW - We usually dislike dream sequences that sorta try to create a false sense of peril, but you know what?  The Flash gets so much right, we won't even hold it against them! Hell, we're stoked about this episode!  The Turtle has maybe one of the coolest super powers we've ever seen utilized on screen, and he's a smarmy little bastard to boot! Winking at Barry. What a tool!  A sick tool, too, ya'll. Weirdo to the max!  But that's not all we talk about! 

Patty and Barry might be done for!  Barry keeps Patty at arm's length, treats her kinda bad, and acts like a douche (for just this episode).  Then again, aren't we rushing into things here, Patty? 

And what's up with all these CW kids and the illegal racing?  Seems like a weird trend...
