Ever since the
pilot episode of The Flash, fans have theorized that time travel would be a key component of the show and it appears that the fans were right. Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg
confirmed to TV Line that time travel will be appearing in episode 15 of The Flash this season.
"There’s an unexpected, accidental time travel coming up and it is played both for hilarity and darkness. It happens in an episode we’re really excited it — the first Weather Wizard episode with Liam McIntyre."
While the fifteenth episode of The Flash is currently untitled, we know that the sixteen episode features McIntyre and is tentatively titled 'Rogue Times". Perhaps time travel will be an epidemic explored across two episodes?
New episodes of The Flash return to The CW on January 20, with episode 10, "Revenge of the Rogues".
SYNOPSIS: Barry Allen was just 11 years old when his mother was killed in a bizarre and terrifying incident and his father was falsely convicted of the murder. With his life changed forever by the tragedy, Barry was taken in and raised by Detective Joe West, the father of Barry’s best friend, Iris. Now, Barry has become a brilliant, driven and endearingly geeky CSI investigator, whose determination to uncover the truth about his mother’s strange death leads him to follow up on every unexplained urban legend and scientific advancement that comes along.
Barry’s latest obsession is a cutting edge particle accelerator, created by visionary physicist Harrison Wells and his STAR Labs team, who claim that this invention will bring about unimaginable advancements in power and medicine. However, something goes horribly wrong during the public unveiling, and when the devastating explosion causes a freak storm, many lives are lost and Barry is struck by lightning. After nine months in a coma, Barry awakens to find his life has changed once again – the accident has given him the power of super speed, granting him the ability to move through Central City like an unseen guardian angel.
