Iris then goes to the train station, where Wally comes off a train and greets his aunt. Iris takes Wally to Joe, who hasn't seen him in two years.

Barry kicks Eddie off him and continues his battle, this time, Barry isn't holding back, as now he knows Eddie isn't acting this way because of his powers or because of mental trama, Eddie is acting this way because this is who he is, this is what Eddie actually is like.

Barry then turns on the T.V., where he sees man in a strange suit, demanding that the Flash face "The New Rogues". Flash then runs to their location, where he meets the man, who reveals his name to be "The Trickster". Flash tries to just punch Trickster out, but he reveals he is wearing a suit that makes it impossible to hit him, as he would blow up with the power of a nuke if he was. Just then, Flash's feet are frozen by Captain Cold, who reveals himself to be alive to Flash. Boomerang then wraps an explosive boomerang around Flash's neck before handcuffing him, and then Mirror Master blasts the Flash and traps him in the ice's reflection.

Later, Barry enters Iris' house, only to be confronted by Wally, he claims that Barry is the Flash. Barry obviously tries to deny this, but Wally tells him all of his evidence, with Barry realizing he can't refute it. Barry seems to be panicing, but then begins to smile, as he grabs Wally, puts him on his shoulders, and runs around, revealing Wally's claims to be true. Afterwards, Wally demands that he becomes Barry's new side-kick, with Barry agreeing, as he realizes a speedster who doesn't know how to be a speedster is a very bad thing. Wally even gets the aproval of Joe and Iris, who realize the same thing. Later, Barry and Wally are running around the city, searching for the Rogues, though Wally isn't nearly as fast as Barry.

However, their plan does not go as planned, cause lightning to strike everywhere, including the lighthouse. Lightning hits Captain Cold, who had just got up, and he is thrown out of the window, while Barry begins to destroy the machine. He manages to stop it before anything to bad could happen, and the Rogues are once again taken away.
