    This episode was not very good but at least they didn't drag Nora being a villain out

    That guy who played Rag Doll was on America's got Talent last year. Good to see him getting some work for his special talent

    I dont care about Nora, I dont care about Cicada. I just want to know what RF has up his sleeves but we probably wont figure that out until episode 22 which seems like too late. This whole season has been so dang boring

    Rag Doll makes Michael Myers less scarier with his mask.

    Glad Nora being a rogue villain didn't last either.

    Was not easy getting into this thread as it's inaccessible from the forum index for me.

    Anyway, can't Nora still light up with Reverse Flash lightning if she gets angry now? How do we know she won't turn bad again?

    And what was that supposed to mean with Cicada 1 standing behind Cicada 2 at the very end?

    Also I thought Weather Witch was meant to be sort of trying to stay on the right path and not keep being a villain. Seems she's still that here.

    The bee lady reminds me a bit of a young Jane Krakowski.

    Going into this episode, all I could think of was that hilarious "I hate you!" line from the trailer.

    This season has felt so long, I forgot who Silver Ghost was and had to look her up.

    I also had to look up the bee girl since I wasn't sure if I had seen her on this show or Arrow. I guess it was both, before I stopped watching Arrow.

    I still think they could've given Rag Doll a better wig.

    The grown I let out when Cicada was at the end and how it grew louder when they showed both of them. :funny:

    Which one was Silver Ghost again? At the time I was thinking of Silver Banshee, but remember now she was in Supergirl.

    I don't recall Bee Woman on Arrow.

    Lost potential. It was an okay episode, but only okay. I was hoping for something a little more insidious with Nora going bad. And she didn't even really go bad did she? It's more like 'oops, I made boobsie..' Once more she was in over her head and daddy had to save her. And from the Rogues and not her herself apparently.

    I think they had an avenue to make a real bad Nora in a real 'good' way if they had given it half a season to mature with the Negative Speedforce added into the mix. I wanted more of the red-eyed Nora with the blurring hand than the bumbler she had been at the beginning - and still apparently is. It seems like she's had no growth at all. And as to the Negative Speedforce, did she just turn it off or ignore it now without consequence...

    Beegirl I hardly remember at all. Weather Witch was trying to go good the last time we saw her, but now we get hints that she killed Silver Somebody and has no problem killing others. It's like they remember her history but not the motivations that lead to her choices.

    As to seeing Cicada beside Shecada at the end, I'm assuming Grace now has a multiple personality disorder. That could be the reason why she was able to kill her real Uncle, if the one she now has in her head is more real to her than he was.

    And of course, now the Flash's real identity (and Nora's) are known to three Rogues...

    I thought she was going to go bad like Barry did by becoming Savitar, and it would be up to Barry and Iris to pull her back from the brink. I thought he'd have to talk her down. It wasn't that at all.

    Weather Witch has been a rather confusing character because her motivations have been so inconsistent. She's had three episode appearances so far, and with each appearance, her motivations have varied widely, with little connective tissue between them.

    In her first appearance, she wanted revenge on her father, Mark Mardon, a.k.a. The Weather Wizard, for abandoning his family. In her second appearance, she wanted to reform herself, give up her life of crime, and start over. In her third and most recent appearance, she seems to have forgotten all about wanting to give up her life of crime, and instead she now just wants to steal stuff and get rich. It's been all over the map, and there's been little explanation for it.

    I looked it up, She was on season 4 episode 17. Emily Kinney is from Walking Dead and is frankly a better actress than Nora.

    She wasn't a very good actress on the Walking Dead... She may have developed as an actress since her days on that show (some years ago now?) but she wasn't very good during her zombie run, that's for sure.

    At least, in my opinion..

    Well, we can disagree on Kinney, but I was trying to say that the girl who plays Nora isn't very good either

    I don' think she's particularly good here on the Flash, but I've seen her in other shows where I have thought she's played a good character; Black Sails spring to mind.
