Quotes7

  • Barry Allen: Joe, what I said about you not being my father...
  • Joe West: Barry, I know. I know I'm not your father.
  • Barry Allen: You're right, you're not. You're just the man who kept me fed and in clothes, who sat beside my bed at night until I fell asleep because I was afraid of the dark, helped me with my homework. You taught me how to drive, and shave... and you dropped me off at college. Sounds a lot like a dad to me.
  • Joe West: You haven't said anything to Iris about all this, have you?
  • Barry Allen: No, I made you a promise. I keep my promises.
  • Joe West: Keep on lying like that. You're liable to get struck by lightning again.
  • Barry Allen: I'm dealing with a lot right now.
  • Joe West: Look, I know you are. Believe me, I'm dealing with it, too. I've always had a very simple set of beliefs. Gravity makes things fall, water makes things wet, and, up until a few weeks ago, I believed the fastest man could run a mile in four minutes, not four seconds.
  • Barry Allen: I could do it in three.
  • [Joe glares at Barry]
  • Barry Allen: [realizing] Not relevant.
  • Caitlin Snow: [to Barry] We're gonna need to fashion you a new diet based on your metabolic changes.
  • Cisco Ramon: I've done a few calculations. You need to consume an amount equal to roughly 850 tacos - unless we're talking cheese and guac, which is like a whole other set of equations.
  • Joe West: For Mexican, I recommend Tito's. On Bruckner Avenue? Best burrito in the city.
  • Joe West: You were wrong.
  • Barry Allen: I have been wrong a lot this week. You're gonna have to be more specific.
  • Joe West: [shoots a clone of Danton Black] Any more of them?
  • Caitlin Snow: Nope.
  • Barry Allen: Why did it start moving?
  • Dr. Harrison Wells: The prime. My guess is the prime is on the move. This one heard the summons to battle.
  • Joe West: And I know where he was summoned to - Stagg Industries.
  • Barry Allen: You should call it in.
  • Joe West: Police can't fight this. What Black's become, like Mardon... beyond me. Maybe way beyond them, too. The only person it's not beyond is you. You gotta do this. I get it. So for once in your life, do what I tell you to do. Go stop him.
  • Joe West: You think because you can run real fast that you're invincible? You're not.
