Quotes 

• Savitar : Do it! You kill me, and you become me. Either way, I live.

  [Barry vibrates Savitar's suit apart] 

  Barry Allen : I'll never let the pain, the darkness, determine who I am. I will never be you.

  [Barry punches him] 

• Savitar : Fix this.

  Cisco Ramon : Fix what? The Speed Force bazooka? I didn't name it. If I didn't name it, I didn't make it. If I didn't make it, I don't know how it works.

  Savitar : Oh, you know enough about it to alter what it does.

  Cisco Ramon : Oh, I see. So you want me to alter it. Well, what do you want me to alter into? Like, a hair dryer? A waffle maker? Oh, I know. Maybe something that's gonna fix that thin-crust pizza you call a face.

• Barry Allen : [referring Gypsy]  Don't mess it up with her.

  Cisco Ramon : I'll do my best.

  Barry Allen : They're all gonna look up to you now.

  Cisco Ramon : I'm not a hero like you.

  Barry Allen : You've always been my hero.

• Cisco Ramon : Well, well, well. At least you're not shopping at Villains R Us anymore.

  Killer Frost : I'm sorry about H.R.

  Barry Allen : I'm sure he would have appreciated you coming.

  Julian Albert : Why did you come?

  Killer Frost : I don't know.

  Cisco Ramon : Maybe you wanted to come home.

  Killer Frost : I don't have a home.

  Julian Albert : Yes, you do, Caitlin. You do, with your friends. With me.

  Killer Frost : [handing Julian his serum back]  I'm sorry, Julian. I'm not Caitlin anymore.

  Barry Allen : You're not Killer Frost.

  Killer Frost : No, I'm not. I'm something else. And I need to figure out what that is, on my own.

  Cisco Ramon : [she turns to leave]  Hey.

  Killer Frost : Cisco... let me go.

• Joe West : All this time we were trying to save Iris, you're telling me that we should've been trying to save you too?

  Barry Allen : You did save me, Joe. You took an 11-year-old boy with a broken heart, and you gave him a home, and so much love. No son ever felt more love for a father.

  Joe West : No father ever felt more proud of a son.

• [as Jay Garrick escapes from the Speed Force and punches Savitar] 

  Jay Garrick : I've been waiting a long time to do that.

  Savitar : Garrick! How did you...

  Cisco Ramon : He didn't. I did. By changing the polarity of the climbing arc, I changed your Speed Force splicer into a Speed Force skeleton key. Didn't think I was actually gonna let you become a god, now, did you?

  Barry Allen : Let's end this.

• Savitar : An intradimensional quantum splicer.

  Cisco Ramon : A splicer.

  Savitar : I do have a plan B. I open a time portal, exposing the Speed Force, you shoot me with that, and I become fragmented throughout all of time. The past, present, future. After that, the paradox can't reach me.

  Cisco Ramon : You want splice yourself throughout time? Exist in every single moment there ever was?

  Savitar : All of us aware and connected through one consciousness. I'll be everywhere - every hour, every minute. And then, I will rule from the Big Bang until the end of the world.

  Cisco Ramon : You wanted us to build this thing.

  Savitar : Well, why do you think I let you idiots live? Tracy Brand trapped me in the Speed Force in the future. All I had to do was get her to build this a little earlier and have my best friend make all the adjustments.

  Cisco Ramon : I'm not your friend.

  Savitar : Get... to work, Francesco.

  Cisco Ramon : How about I sit on my ass and let you obliterate permanently from existence? How's that sound?

• [Barry phases into Savitar's suit and forces him out] 

  Barry Allen : How does it feel to get so close to your ascension, and end up on the ground?

  Savitar : Now I see. It's written.

  Barry Allen : Nothing's written!

• Savitar : So how's this gonna work? Where will I live?

  Barry Allen : What do you mean?

  Savitar : Are Wally and I gonna be bunk mates? Am I supposed to rejoin Team Flash, fight some Rogues? What kind of life were you thinking I'd lead?

  Barry Allen : I hadn't gotten that far yet.

  Savitar : How would we explain me at the wedding? And do I sit bride-side or groom-side?

• Iris West : [reading the future newspaper]  "Iris West-Allen".

  Barry Allen : It changed back.

  Joe West : Does that mean what I think it means?

  Barry Allen : Yeah, Joe. The future's ours again.

• Joe West : So for the millionth time, I'm lost on all this time travel stuff. What happens now? With Savitar? Iris didn't die. That changes things, right?

  Barry Allen : I mean, since that Iris didn't die, future me never goes down that same dark path. I never create time remnants to fight Savitar.

  Iris West : And if future you never creates these time remnants, then Savitar himself is never born.

  Julian Albert : Precisely. Once the time paradox catches up with him... He'll be erased from existence.

  Joe West : But I saw him. He didn't disappear.

  Julian Albert : Not yet.

  Barry Allen : But he will, Joe.

  Joe West : Any guess how long that's gonna take?

  Barry Allen : Maybe a few hours?

  Joe West : He can do a lot of damage in a few hours.

  Iris West : Well, we can't just sit around and wait for Savitar to disappear.

  Julian Albert : But Savitar won't become Savitar if he's erased.

  Barry Allen : Not unless he pulls off whatever he's got in mind before the paradox hits him. He stole the bazooka for a reason.

  Joe West : Yeah, why?

  Barry Allen : I don't know, but remember, he's been planning this for centuries. He wants to be a god. He must need the bazooka, and Caitlin, to achieve his goals.

• [last lines] 

  Iris West : This isn't fair.

  Barry Allen : I know.

  Iris West : We were supposed to have our happy ending. I'm ready to be Iris West-Allen.

  Barry Allen : You always will be. But you need to keep living your life. Keep growing. Keep loving. Keep running. For me. Promise me you'll run, Iris.

  Iris West : I promise.

  Barry Allen : I gotta go.

  [Barry walks into the Speed Force and it closes, the lightning storm stops]
