In Season 2, the surly Earth-2 version of Harrison Wells was slow to warm up to the team and eventually stole some of Barry’s speed after being blackmailed into it by Zoom. This Season 1 arc almost concluded when Eddie Thawne shot himself to erase the Reverse-Flash (Eobard Thawne from the 22nd century), but in Season 2, a version of the Reverse-Flash reappeared on the scene and he’s now back in-universe full-time with his original face that’s nothing like Wells’s. The most egregious example was when the Reverse-Flash impersonated the Earth-1 Harrison Wells and manufactured the particle accelerator explosion as a means to give Barry his speed earlier in life so he could train the Flash to be fast enough to bring him back to the future. It’s abundantly clear that one member of the team will betray them all, no doubt leading to the return of Savitar.Įvery single time Team Flash has seen the face of Harrison Wells, it has 100% wound up betraying them. Let’s unpack the specific implications this prophesy could have on the show in the back half of Season 3. Yet, that could mean something else entirely within the context of a show where a mythical magical dimension called the Speed Force can speak to you via The Five People You Meet in Heaven-style dream sequences and also, you know, at least nine characters that can run at super speed. The probable meaning of one “falling” would be death - which is quickly what Team Flash assumes - but keep in mind, a person “falling” could mean something like the common phrase “fall from grace.” And suffering a “fate far worse than death” is subjective at best, but in dramatic storytelling that almost always means watching one’s loved ones die. “Betrayal” is pretty straightforward, but it can come in several forms. This is the knowledge I have for you about your everlasting damnation.”Īs is the case with prophesies, word choice is often the tricky part, but the good news is that nothing will happen to at least half of the greater Team Flash. One will suffer a fate far worse than death. We were give an ominous prophecy from Savitar himself: “I know your destinies. In the mid season finale of The Flash, we got to see the so-called god of speed, Savitar, speak to the team through Julian by way of another in a long line of Cisco devices.
Season 3 of The Flash has been rife with misdirection: Flashpoint was over in one episode (with a bunch of lasting consequences), Julian was Doctor Alchemy and then sort of wasn’t, and within the last several episodes, this season’s big bad has finally reared his ugly, Megatron-looking charred robot head.
