Candice Patton: Iris West-Allen

Quotes 

• Iris West-Allen : I want you to take me to him right now.

  Barry Allen : I told you, I don't know where he's going.

  Iris West-Allen : You don't need to, Barry. They-they-they left, what, like, 30 minutes ago? They're probably still within a 50-mile radius. With your speed, you can search that entire area in seconds.

  Barry Allen : You know I can't, not anymore.

  Iris West-Allen : Can't or won't?

  Barry Allen : It's not that simple.

  Iris West-Allen : Yes, it is, Barry!

  Barry Allen : No, it isn't! Look, Iris, I'm... I'm barely hanging on. I can't catch my breath. I'm getting dizzy. My feet are numb. My fingers tingle. It feels like with every step I take, I'm getting ripped in two. All I can think about is if I'll be fast enough tomorrow to save another life.

• Iris West-Allen : I want you to leave.

  Barry Allen : You can't be serious.

  Iris West-Allen : Barry, you always do this. You always make all of these decisions, and then the rest of us have to deal with the fallout. Flashpoint, going into the Speed Force, taking Nora into the future, and now this... I am done, Barry.

  Barry Allen : Iris.

  Iris West-Allen : I want you to get out.

  Barry Allen : Please. Okay, look, we can work through this. You're my home.

  Barry Allen : [recoiling]  Not anymore. Leave.

• Iris West-Allen : I just talked to David. Is my dad really gone?

  Barry Allen : I tried calling you.

  Iris West-Allen : That's your excuse? My dad is in witness protection, Barry. You should've come to get me.

  Barry Allen : Yeah, Iris, there wasn't enough time.

  Iris West-Allen : You're the Flash, Barry. You can make a second last an hour. Where is he?

  Barry Allen : I-I honestly don't know.

  Iris West-Allen : When is he coming back?

  Barry Allen : The second that we catch Carver.

  Iris West-Allen : Carver's pockets are lined with... with politicians and lawmakers, Barry, not to mention assassins. It could be years before we catch him.

  Barry Allen : Iris, I'm so sorry, but Cecile was almost killed. And then Joe. He-he had to leave right away, or else Carver may come after Jenna or you next.

  Iris West-Allen : Carver already came after me.

  Barry Allen : And I wasn't here to protect you. Look, I'm-I'm-I'm trying to keep this family safe.

• Iris West-Allen : I read your theory that says that someone could pass through the mirror if their molecular structure was destabilized?

  Eva McCulloch : Yes.

  Iris West-Allen : Well, if I could just contact my husband, I think he might be able to help us. Eva, my husband, Barry Allen, is the Flash.

  Eva McCulloch : What?

  Iris West-Allen : And with his speed, I think he could phase us out of here.

  Eva McCulloch : If his instantaneous velocity correlates with the limit of the fractal surface, then... then he'll become intangible.

  Iris West-Allen : So... it could work.

  Eva McCulloch : Yes! Yes, I... I just... I need to recharge. I've been controlling the mirror all morning, and I'm... I'm exhausted.

  Iris West-Allen : Yeah, um, take all the time you need. I will, um, keep trying to decipher more.

  Eva McCulloch : Yeah. You... you do that. You're... you're on the right path.

  Iris West-Allen : Yeah.

  Eva McCulloch : [as Iris leaves, she opens a portal to Mirror-Iris]  She just did exactly what I knew she would do. She even told me the truth about her husband.

• Iris West-Allen : Eva, Joe West is still looking into your husband's activities. He knows about Black Hole.

  Eva McCulloch : Then it's only a matter of time before Barry Allen helps him. You have a new mission. The Flash is losing his speed. Drain him of the rest.

  Iris West-Allen : Why do you care about the Flash?

  Eva McCulloch : I don't. I care about my husband. The Flash is not gonna take that away from me.

  Iris West-Allen : Success is assured.

• Iris West-Allen : I trusted you, Barry. Now we have something else in common. We both lost our parents. I hope that was worth it.
