After the weak episodes last week and the week before, this one was quite good. Not too many distracting sidetracks, just focussing on Harrison Wells and how to reveal his true identity and to get a confession from him for the murder of Barry's mother. The acting was quite alright, except for a few scenes. I am not sure if it is the writers or Grant Gustin, but sometimes I have the impression that the nerdiness and bafflement of the Barry character is exaggerated. In my point of view a little more character development in this regard should take place.
Were there any logical flaws in this episode? Well, actually I can think of one. In the scene when Harrison Wells talks to Cisco in the bunker and approaches him with his hand raised to kill him, his hand doesn't vibrate as it did in Ciscos dream. Hence, to a smart guy like Cisco, this could have been an indicator that something is not right. But let's just say it was the "heat of the moment" and Cisco didn't notice that.
Another flaw was the usual on and off relationship between Iris and Barry. As I said in my review for S01E19, the Iris character is expendable. Her contribution to the show so far was minimal. After this episode I am afraid to say, she won't be out of the show soon. I am not sure where the writers are going with the relationship and with the character, but whatever direction it is, I won't like it.
