The episode was exciting. A time wraith startled Barry while he was travelling through time and caused him to exit a little too soon. Barry ran into so many issues I expected there to be major disruptions to the timeline when he returned to his time. The differences so far are Dr. Wells' assistant Hartley is on good terms with Cisco and the team and engineered a device that can kill a time wraith. Of course, the most important change is Barry now has Dr. Wells/Thawne's formula to increase his speed.
Barry did at least three things he was not supposed to do. He had a fist fight with his past self.
The entire S.T.A.R.R. Labs team learned he was future Barry.
Another was he whispered to Cisco that Hartley knows where Ronnie is.
Dear compassionate Barry had Eddie make a video describing how he feels about Iris and then gave it to Iris when he returned.
Images passed so quickly I could not recognize the Easter eggs.

Caitlin brought Barry evidence that he’s running at the same speed as Zoom and the Reverse-Flash, but that their feet are spending less time on the ground. If Barry figures out how to run differently plus use the formula, he will be faster than Zoom.
Another no-no Barry did was to reveal that Hartley had the special ear piece that he used to escape the cell and Cisco told Hartley to remove it.
Even though Supergirl crossover aired before this episode, Barry was wearing a different chest plate which I am guessing was made by using the formula.

Saying "Welcome to darkness" in that voice seems like Jay has totally crossed over to the dark side.

I need a break. I couldn't believe how many shows I had to watch and, yes, in order to read newspapers last night, I had to extend the time on some shows with exclamation points. I am going to be busy today and tomorrow.
But I did go ahead and watch this show. I was very confused. I didn't realize Barry would already be The Flash until I went back and watched the scene again. Something I heard someone say made me think this was before the incident that created all the metahumans. If I was supposed to remember anything, I didn't. I remembered when the man said he had a problem which would cause him a lot of pain if something was removed from his ear.
I am glad Barry got Eddie to do that video for Iris. It surprises me that technology can survive time travel because Frank Parker carried a VHS tape with important information on it, and when he got back, it didn't work. Makes sense.
I thought I knew which Barry was which but then they traded symbols. Oh, no, Barry from the future was using the symbol that belonged to Barry from the past.
I thought Barry from the future was in real trouble with Eobard. But he made that threat and Eobard knew he couldn't go home.
I still find it very confusing that they say Eobard was erased from existence, but a lot of what has happened depends on him having lived in the first place even if Eddie died.

I didn't see anything on this page before I posted. That happens sometimes because I think I've seen all there is to see. It helps if my feet spend less time on the ground because I have less pain if they do. The longer I stand on my right foot or the longer my right foot stays in place if I am moving, the more pain I have. When I was in the nursing home, this was true. The physical therapist didn't like that I went so fast, but back then I was really in pain if I tried to walk. Going faster helped with that. I was disappointed there was no mention of Supergirl. I thought maybe Barry made a miscalculation that led him to her world and then ended up back in Hartley's time.

I mentioned Frank Parker above. And just two days later, he was a homicide detective in a movie where Cuba Gooding was a hit man.

Some of the scenes did not make sense. When the plan to use Solomon's family history to distract Zoom succeeded, Barry shot him with a gun and Zoom crumbled to the floor. Uh...why did Barry stand there gloating and conversing with Zoom? Zoom was not dead and no one tried to put him into a cell. I do not understand that at all. Also, when Wally was surprised that Flash was expected to rescue him, Zoom did not reveal Flash's not-so-secret identity. Is that a code among meta-humans?
When Wells explained what he was doing, I misinterpreted his intent. I thought he was adjusting the "take Barry's speed" device to backfire on Zoom. I was really surprised when Barry actually lost his speed.
I did enjoy the scene between Det. West and Wally when Wally agreed to live at the house.
I am reserving judgment regarding Iris being interested in Barry.

They have to give Barry his speed back. Otherwise, there's no show.
I did like how the relationship between Det. West and Wally improved in the episode.
What confused me is how the house has magically returned to how it was before it was seriously damaged several weeks ago.
I have one comment about Iris. She looked hot.

I just thought of something. When Barry and Det. West agreed it would be a good idea to invite Wally to live at home, one of them said they would not have as many of their favorite pizzas if Wally moved in. At the time, I was puzzled by the comment. Now I realize that if Wally was home, Barry could not zip out and be back in 5 minutes with a pizza from across town.
