Neil Sandilands: Clifford DeVoe, The Thinker

Quotes 

  • Clifford DeVoe : Now, I do have a restraining order against your son. Shall I add you to the list?

    Joe West : If something happened to Barry, there ain't a restraining order on Earth that would keep me from getting you.

  • Dominic Lanse : Hello, Mr. Allen.

    Barry Allen : Dominic?

    Dominic Lanse : You really have an acute sense of detection. And wit. But like I said, Mr. Allen. You are incapable of seeing the breadth of my machinations.

    Barry Allen : DeVoe?

    Dominic Lanse : You really should have listened to your teacher.

    Barry Allen : How is this possible?

    [flashback] 

    Amunet Black : I told you I have a very important buyer, Dom.

    [she knocks him out; a few moments later, he wakes up in the middle of nowhere] 

    Marlize DeVoe : [handing Amunet a briefcase]  As promised.

    Amunet Black : Always a pleasure doing business with another savvy woman.

    Dominic Lanse : Please, don't do this to me.

    Marlize DeVoe : I won't be doing anything to you.

    The Thinker : [appearing in his hoverchair]  Please to meet you, Dominic Lanse. Or should I say Subject Six? Oh, I have created many metahumans, but only your unique abilities allow me to do... this.

    [he transfers his consciousness to Dominic; the scene then returns to real time] 

    Dominic Lanse : You see, Mr. Allen, three months ago you emerged from the Speed Force a new man. And in order for you and the world to experience my plan, I, too, needed to be reborn.

    Barry Allen : If you hurt my family...

    Dominic Lanse : I have no interest in your family. Besides, you're gonna need someone to miss you when you're gone.

    Barry Allen : What did you do?

    Dominic Lanse : I merely left something for you. It's a re-gift, as it were. I don't have need for it anymore.

    [looking around, Barry finds DeVoe's dead body] 

  • Barry Allen : DeVoe, if you wanted to kill me, you could have just electrocuted me on the street. So I'm here for a reason.

    The Thinker : Yes, Mr. Allen. So that I may teach you. I am, after all, first and foremost, a teacher.

    Barry Allen : Oh, god. All right. Fine. Teach me. But first I wanna make sure I'm all caught up. You sent your Samuroid after me. You arranged to pull me out of the Speed Force. You made sure that we turned all those people on that bus into metahumans. Why?

    The Thinker : You see, the finer points of my agenda are not part of today's syllabus.

    Barry Allen : Oh, come on. We can squeeze it in. I'm a fast learner.

    The Thinker : Please. You're about as capable of seeing the breadth of my machinations as an infant mastering multivariable physics. The lesson I have prepped for today is much more simple. Life 101. There are no happy endings.

    [a doorbell rings] 

    The Thinker : Oh. We have a guest.

    Barry Allen : [on a monitor, he sees Joe outside the house]  DeVoe?

    The Thinker : You should learn to lose every once in a while, Bar. A little humility will prepare you for what lies ahead.

  • Clifford DeVoe : Good evening, Detective West. Something tells me you're not here for more of my wife's world-famous lemonade.

    Joe West : Where's my son?

    Clifford DeVoe : Mr. Allen, has he gone missing?

    Joe West : He's not missing. He was taken. By someone I am eager to meet.

    Clifford DeVoe : Thinly veiled threats aside, Mr. West, I'm afraid I have not a clue as to Barry Allen's location. I do know, however, that your colleague is located behind my front porch carrying an ionic sub-repeating pulse firearm.

    [he laughs as Harry enters with said weapon] 

    Clifford DeVoe : The bird bath has a much better vantage point. A smart man would have taken up position there.

    Dr. Harry Wells : A smarter man would understand that this gun has no safety, and my finger is still on the trigger.

  • Dr. Harry Wells : You're not as smart as you think.

    Clifford DeVoe : Yes, I am.

  • Clifford DeVoe : You should learn to lose every once and a while Bar. The little humility will prepare you for what lies ahead. Now, if you will excuse me.

    Barry Allen : DeVoe. If you hurt him, if you put a hand on him. DeVoe. DEVOE!

  • Clifford DeVoe : The lesson I have planned for today is much more simple. Life 101, there are no happy endings. Ah, we have a guest.

    Barry Allen : DeVoe?

    Clifford DeVoe : You should learn to lose every once in a while Bar. A little humility will prepare you for what lies ahead. Now, if you will excuse me.

    Barry Allen : DeVoe. If you hurt him, if you put a hand on him! DeVoe! DEVOE!
