Season 4 / Episode 16 / The CW And you say C-City! Rough Start We kick off this dope episode of The Flash with Cisco and Harry turnt off the esibles having a Bill and Ted type thinking session, where Harry comes up with a way to “be smarter than DeVoe”. His big breakthrough involves recreating DeVoe’s thinking cap transformation. Cisco ain’t wit the shits. He like, “Sooo you want to blast yourself with hella dark matter to boost your intelligence?

He calls out Iris for her behind-the-keyboard leadership skills (Bast help me, the boy hasn’t seen the truth yet) and leaves her with that orange juice after brushing your teeth, bad taste in your mouth.
