TV commentary:

Flash- Interesting how many developments come up in what's supposed to be a crossover episode. So the villain of the week is... Killer Bee? A cute blond hacker chick (who I totally didn't realize was Beth from Walking Dead at first) who controls tiny robotic bees. Is that their take on Killer Bee? Oh wait, looking up "Brie Larvan", I guess she's a chick version of the "Bug Eyed Bandit"? Like I guess Cisco and Ray said, "Bug Eyed Bandit", but I didn't think that was the name of a real character. In any case, she was fired by Tina Mcgee for making weaponized bees, so the gang has to protect her. And heh, being a computer girl, Felicity has a hack off and proclaims Brie her nemesis.

Anyways, Ray and Felicity are in Central City this week to get STAR labs help in getting the ATOM suit to work properly (apparently Ray has been overheating the power supply). Heh, corny joke of the week- when Ray flies in, Cisco and Caitlin are all, "Its a bird! Its a plane!" most likely referencing Brandon Routh's time as Superman.

Felicity picks up on all the awkwardness going on, since Barry is doing a terrible job of not letting the fact that Dr Wells might be Reverse Flash get to him. In fact, he's worried Caitlin and Cisco might be in cahoots with them, or that if he comes to him with this, they might actually choose Harrison over him, since he is a respected mentor to them (apparently even Ray idolizes him!) She eventually tells him he's being ridiculous, and brings up the story of how before she knew Ollie was the Arrow, she still did all the crazy stuff he asked of her because she could tell he was a good man and she could trust him. And she knows he can trust Caitlin and Cisco.

And there's all this evidence piling up. After saving Mcgee from Brie, Barry asks why she and Harrison had a falling out- and she's all, after the accident, it was like he was a different man. Also, Cisco has apparently started to have flashes from the other time line, of finding out Wells is Reverse Flash and then Wells killing him. So, when Joe and Barry finally do let Caitlin and Cisco in, while Caitlin is skeptical, Cisco reveals his dreams to them.

Also awkward are Eddie and Iris- Iris knows Eddie is lying about something, and Eddie is getting upset about how keeping Barry's secret is effin up his love life. And its kinda BS that they're all lying to Iris, since as they even said, Iris is the only one who doesn't know. Do they think she's a child? They say its for her safety, but why does she need more protection than the rest of them?

Anyways, Barry tries to smooth things over with Iris when she asks him if he thinks Eddie could be cheating on her, but he plays it off that they see a lot of effed up stuff working homicide, and that while Barry can hide in science, Eddie has to find some other way of dealing with it. And Barry claims Eddie doesn't want to burden her with it, wants to keep her in the light.

Unfortunately, that doesn't work for Iris- she understands that he's carrying around darkness, but their relationship doesn't work unless they're honest with each other. So how long until he can't take it anymore and caves, choosing his relationship over Barry.
