@Barry Allen:
"Don't forget Eddie.
Don't be a *****e."

Yeah,I never for a minute thought it was creating actual gold. It's another case of them not spelling it out enough for some people,I guess.Yeah! Like you know what would have been cool - if Lisa had said something like
"All that glitters..." right before she fired the weapon. indicating that - you know - it isn't gold. Commonly used phrase and all....
Oh waitaminute - she DID.
You mean the ninja skills that weren't enough to take down scrawny Hartley? Yeah, Heatwave was always going to wreck him, and he was handcuffed. (He only got off one swing this time, and against Hartley, it was more brawling competently than ninja skills.)
P.S. If there was another example of Cisco being a fighter that I'm forgetting, please correct me.
So any guesses on how this dumb relationship between Flash and Cold is gonna work now?
Cold: "I'm here to steal $50,000,000 worth of silverware.You can't stop me Flash,or I'll spill the beans."
Flash: "Well.....just don't kill anybody!"
*runs in the opposite direction*
I mean,this is even stupider to me than the whole "Might as well not bother even trying to stop Malcolm,he'll just escape any prison" shtick they're doing over on Arrow.
Also, what is with this "logic" about time travelling causing things to get worse, in the first place? There is a reason for that? An "eye for an eye" -thing? Because the universe wants to keep its balance? That is a stupid and lazy explaination that makes no sense whatsoever. Why not keeping the balance by improving things instead of causing something extremely horrible? Does that really mean, that every time Barry goes back in time, that something horrible will happen? Okay, who am I kidding, of course they are going to use it like that, it is that way in the comics after all. Talking about overpowering a character and doing lazy damage control... but probably a good sorce for conflict and drama...
Still, if the usiverse actually is looking for balance Eobard really has to have it coming after killing Barry's mom... I hope at least, I really start to dislike the Well/Eobard character, which is probably just as the writer intended. Cavanagh is doing an amazing job, I hope he sticks around for next season as well. He is playing such a ruthless character, there has to be so much potential with him.
Well, all in all a good episode, 8 out of 10.

I hated this episode. Whoever wrote this needs to be canned and never write again.
And don't get me started with the weapon that spits out gold. That thing could make you rich without doing any heists.
Brooke Eikmeier did The Sound and the Fury (the one with Pied Piper) and Kai Yu Wu did Going Rogue (first episode with Captain Cold) and Revenge of the Rogues (I'm sensing a pattern). The story is by Grainne Godfree who did Things You Can't Outrun (Mist) and Power Outage (Blackout). It's not their first rodeo for any of them and it's possible they just had a bad outing.
Well, they said they're doing it for the fun, not the money.

What was shown tonight was a more accurate representation of how easy it would be for Barry to take down most of his rogues on their own...in the way he apprehended Weather Wizard and Cold without much difficulty.
The Good:
- Tom Cavanagh.
- Captain Cold/Wentworth Miller.
The Bad:
- All that nonsense with Cold, Heat Wave, and "The Don". Talk about cheesy.
- "Your heart should ache for me. Does it?"
- The effects for Lisa's gun.
- Barry not grabbing Lisa's and Cold's guns after confronting them at the casino.
- Valdes' dramatic acting. (No offense to him.)
- "You and your rogues gallery..."
- Barry and Cold came to their arrangement way too easily.
- It didn't really take much for Barry to starting doubting Harrison, did it?
- I do not, at all, care about Barry and Iris as a couple.
The Okay
- I think Linda was way too cool about Barry breaking up with her for Iris. She was right all along and she acted like she didn't even care.
- "Lightning psychosis".
This was a step down from last week. 6/10.
Yeah, I thought that was very interesting. Pretty eerie almost.I really liked the alternate scene that played out between Eobard and Cisco.
I agree with some of your criticism, the episode was kind of bad.
Dominic Purcell is being too campy as Heat Wave, he's a better actor than that, but is the producers' fault for not telling him to tone it down a bit.
You really don't like Carlos Valdés serious acting huh!
I agree with you and others regarding the whole Barry-Cold deal, it's terrible writing...
And the whole Barry & Iris thing is a trainwreck, she's the worst character of the CWverse, not even Lana was that awful during the first season of Smallville.
