Barry travels to the future to find out Savitar’s still unknown identity in the hope of saving Iris; the hunt for Killer Frost continues in 2017.

The Flash goes back to the future as Barry hopes to find the identity of Savitar and instead finds his friends broken and still grieving. Trips out of time are always interesting and open up opportunities to explore some of the characters and what makes them, them. Here we get a sense of that but it has more to deal with the friendship and unit everyone is.

With the death of Iris, Barry has given up and things have fallen apart. There’s some interesting things to see how everyone has taken it and what they’re up to.

But, the episode is a little weak in that we see some Rogues who have taken over the city beating up the Flash, but you don’t get a sense the city is under some crime spree and with only two, it’s a little weird. There should be more Rogues and villains taking advantage, but I never got a real sense that was the case. So, with hints the Rogues have beat up the Flash and his team, it’s kind of blah.

But, we see the band get back together in a way and that’s cool. Barry also is given a little help from future Barry, so it’s not all lost. Overall, the episode feels like it has a Scrooge sort of vibe about it, so nothing really new in that way.

The episode though really pays off at the end when Killer Frost is confronted by Savitar. It’s clearly someone who has gotten her attention, which has me that much more interested in finding out who is behind it all.

Not a bad episode, but one that doesn’t add a ton to the series other than giving Barry a little more effort to defeat Savitar. Still, I really want to know who Savitar is!!!!

Overall Rating: 7.35
