A good, or at least solid, episode let down by one moment. That moment was when Iris jumped off the building to save Barry. How she managed to dive off the building perfectly in line with where Barry fell, had no struggle unlocking the cuffs with the key while falling... I know it's a superhero show, but that was a bit too much for me. She was more like Supergirl in that moment.
There were good things about the episode elsewhere. Nora was less annoying, Cisco and Ralph provided some humour. The nod to Spider-Man was amusing and rather fitting considering Stan Lee passed away this week. And there was some decent dialogue, particularly the scene between Cisco and Caitlin in the med bay of STAR Labs.
The villain might have been a little less powerful than some we have seen previously, but intriguing nonetheless.
It would have been a 7/10 from me but for the aforementioned "one moment".
