Following an action-packed episode that had some major developments in regards to Killer Frost (Danielle Panabaker) and a shocking Gideon-related twist to end the hour, next week's finale looks to be even better as the Scarlet Speedster (Grant Gustin) must take unprecedented measures to bring The Thinker (Neil Sandilands) down once and for all.

Watch the new promo for the season four finale, titled "We Are The Flash," below:



 
"We Are The Flash" - (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV)

SEASON FINALE - Team Flash gets help from a surprising ally in their battle against DeVoe (Neil Sandilands). David McWhirter directed the episode written by Todd Helbing & Eric Wallace (#423). Original airdate 5/22/2018.



Last season, Barry Allen aka The Flash used his extraordinary abilities to travel back in time and save his mother’s life, and inadvertently created an alternate timeline known as Flashpoint. The phenomenon not only gave birth to the villainous God of Speed known as Savitar, but changed the lives of Caitlin Snow and Wally West forever. With the help of his adoptive father, Detective Joe West, his fiancée Iris West, and his friends at S.T.A.R. Labs – Cisco Ramon and Harrison Wells -- Barry continues to protect the people of Central City from the meta-humans that threaten it. But first, he’ll have to escape the Speed Force – an extra-dimensional entity teeming with unknown dangers – that Barry sacrificed himself to in order to save Central City.

@Typobutcorrect - It reminded me of Daredevil's corridor fight in season 1.

@MarsivNayr - Yes, I feel it's improved after they got rid of Blades and introduced Morgan and Dori. Didn't expect what happened to Nick though.

The opening scene reminded me of Nightcrawlers’ scene from X2

Wow, just wow. What an episode that was. Very balanced in all the right ways and tones. Bravo, solid penultimate episode.

That opening thouhgh. DAT opening.



This was absolutely amazing. Specially when he used Black Bison’s powers to literally reanimate the dead soldiers to fight and kill the new ones.

Poor guy that got stomped. Maybe besides the brutality of killing him was as well a representation of what was going to happen: he was going to stomp on them.

DeVoe really likes to use the gravity power a lot to stop bullets and then redirect them with the pocket dimension power. Or how he redirected the shock of the batons with Kilg%re’s power towards them. He also likes to use the old fashioned ones like messing with their heads with Brainstorm’s powers and some bouncing off bullets too.

And that final part in using Hazard’s to kill the one that was left because he was irritated that his entire symphony was ruined. And to think he may have done all this just because one guard outside pissed him off with his taste of music.

I easily consider this stompage better than when E2 Zoom snapped the necks of all the cops in Jitters in less than a second and when Future Flash/Savitar killed the others while they couldn’t even see them.

Whoever is the next villain, he will have his work cut out for him in order to out-do this one.

Anyway moving on I liked the Flashtime training sequences because they brought up a bit of info from the comics that the fanbase always wondered and debated: whether Barry was or not generating Speed Force when he ran like in the comics because pre-Flashpoint once it was told that Barry created the Speed Force when lightning hit him and so he created it every time he ran. But I liked a lot better what they did here with explaining that it is when he enters Flashtime that he generates his own Speed Force and can share it with others if he practices.

So yeah those scenes with Cisco and Caitlin in Flashtime training were good, good humor in it too with the "baby breach" part.

I think Cecile's mind inhabiting aspect of her power during the last period of her pregnancy will come in handy someway last week. Joe calming her down by describing how his feelings were for her (plus that book) made for a good contrast to DeVoe's chat at the end with Barry of what he hates about emotions. DeVoe was always an apathetic in the making and he reached it when he became a consciousness.

The revelation that Caitlin always had her powers from beginning not only makes Barry free of his Flashpoint mistake with her since it was never something he gave her but it also brings back the idea that metas have been around in Earth-1 way before the particle accelerator exploded.

Iris and Harry scenes were good too. Harry was making me LOL at the right moment with knocking on the wrong door and "Door number 4" and "we can have tea" at Marlize's house. XD But both of them brought good arguments from Iris quoting their mistake in trying to help Savitar (I can see why they tried that last year to make the comparison a year later) to how they had to put themselves in Marlize's shoes to find her (which dawned on Iris by accident due to Harry's mudded shoes) while Harry admitted as well that as Iris' friend he should've put himself in her own first.

Barry and Cisco's arguments was on point. Cisco nailed it when he told him it was also his burden for all that happened since originally he was the one with the idea to bring him back and used the bazooka, Caitlin sealed it with how it wasn't a burden if all of them carried it.

Rescue scene was great. And seeing Barry and DeVoe debate about things is fun even if the latter always looks down on him.

I had a feeling that DeVoe's back up was to use STAR Labs' satelite but the way he did it with Gideon was unexpected with Kilg%re's power. I think that after the finale they won't have anymore their satelite.

Can't wait for the finale.

Also Joe kept with him the katana from the Samuroid. How fitting it'd be if DeVoe in some way meets his demise by the weapon from one of his own invention?

Is anyone else sick of Devoe? I know I am...

@SuperSomething616 - I'm sick of super powered DeVoe. He's supposed to be just winning from pure intellectual superiority. Not god-like power.

@Luminus - yeah i know what you mean! just sick of the eay he keeps winning...theres no back and forth, same goes for this current season of arrow! ive stopped watching to wait for them to finish so i can watch them back to back lol

@Luminus - But isn't that just exactly what he did at the end of the episode? Revealed he already had a back up ready in case they destroyed one of his satelites? All of DeVoe's intellectual superiority has been portrayed by how he quickly mastered each power he obtained, the way he put them in use at the same time (best example last night's opening) and how he's been ready for this for the last 3 years, including the time he raided STAR Labs in 4x18 when Harry overcharged his brain with dark matter and left the time vault open.

His greatest power continues to be his litmitless thought. Without it he wouldn't have been able to get this far.

@NinnesMBC - We saw Peter Petrelli do this way back in Heroes, and he was an idiot. Then his father did it, later on. Sylar did it, as well. How many idiots have we seen do this same thing? It's old and tired.
