Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  The Flash : Guys, I saw the the alert. Meta attack downtown. I'm on my way.

  Kamilla Hwang : Sounds good, Flash.

  The Flash : Kamilla? Is that you?

  Kamilla Hwang : Uh, yeah.

  Chester P. Runk : And Chester P. Runk, sir! Ready to assist you in all your superhero needs.

• Kamilla Hwang : Flash, Rathaway is at 52nd and Palm.

  The Flash : All right, I'm on it. I'll take Broadway.

  Chester P. Runk : Uh, I wouldn't do that, sir.

  The Flash : Why not?

  Kamilla Hwang : Because there's a...

  The Flash : [just barely phases through a speeding train]  Whoa! Since when was there a train here?

  Chester P. Runk : Since always.

• Chester P. Runk : Barry Allen is The Flash.

  Kamilla Hwang : Yeah, I already knew that.

  Chester P. Runk : What? A-actually, you know what? When I think about it, this kind of makes sense. This whole S.T.A.R. Labs super-facility... Plus, the same voice every time The Flash came to visit me at the M.A.C. And the jawline, though? Very distinctive.

• Kamilla Hwang : Wait, so we have to somehow separate their minds at the exact moment they escape?

  Killer Frost : And I'd have to be accurate to the millisecond. Which isn't possible.

  Chester P. Runk : Not for us. But it's very possible for a mobile artificial intelligence unit. If we sync Gideon's quantum intelligence network to Barry and Grodd's bio-analytics, it will perfectly time the neural de-splicing. But I'd have to do some more augmenting to this puppy, and my augmenting is what got Barry into this mess, and I - I justmreally don't wanna mess up again, so...

  Barry Allen : Chester, listen to me. That tweak you made in Gideon earlier? In two seconds, you improved her functionality any more than I did in two hours. You're a genius. Maybe it didn't work out exactly how you planned, so here's round two. Try again. I need you now, Chester. Please. You can do this. I believe in you.

  Chester P. Runk : Flash believes in me.

  Kamilla Hwang : We all do.

  Killer Frost : Go ahead, take your second chance. Show us your moves.

  Chester P. Runk : Right. It's time for the Lebron James of the Junkyard to do his thing, baby! Oh, watch out, brothers and sisters, because Chester P. Runk is b-b-b-back!

• Chester P. Runk : Oh, come on, come on. Just- just one game

  Killer Frost : I spent that last two hours at A.R.G.U.S. talking to Ramsey. I do now wanna play pinball. Besides, I know the only reason you're hanging around is 'cause you wanna work things out with Barry, so just go do it.

  Chester P. Runk : What - I'm - I'm working my way up to it. It's just, you know, up until today, the worst thing I'd ever done before is drown my grandmother's car. Uh, don't try to build a hovercraft at age 11. It doesn't work out.

  Killer Frost : Didn't you create a literal black hole over Central City?

  Chester P. Runk : Oh, you think Barry's still made about that too?

  Killer Frost : Would you stop?

  Chester P. Runk : No, no, I wasn't even awake when that happened.

  Killer Frost : I mean, it's not like you killed him.

  [they find Barry unconscious] 

• Killer Frost : Barry is in Grodd's mind.

  Chester P. Runk : Gorilla Grodd? Damn. You, he is, like, my favorite supervilain ever! He's, like super strong, is super smart, and... Barry's super trapped in his mind, which is very, very bad.

• Chester P. Runk : You know, in the sixth grade, I got into the science fair with a Millennium Falcon that I built out of used vacuum parts. I mean, it-it... it flew and everything, like a drone. But on the day of the fair, it didn't fly. Uh, rust in the intake manifold was preventing air from getting into the combustion, which was then causing it to... sorry. Anyway, I had begged my teacher to let me fix it and then fly again the next day. He said no. You know why? He was an old school brother. And he said... that in the real world, people like us... we don't get a second chance.

  Killer Frost : Hold on. I'm not gonna pretend like I have any idea what your life has been like, and I know that some of the stuff we do in here has nothing to do with the real world, but I'm offering you a second chance. Because you deserve one. 'Cause we all do.

• Chester P. Runk : Oh, thank Rao.

  Killer Frost : You're back

  Barry Allen : Yeah, I'm back. Thanks to the team.

• Chester P. Runk : Harrison Wells is alive?

  Kamilla Hwang : That's a really long story.

• Barry Allen : I wanted to say, uh, I'm sorry I wasn't more welcoming. It's... I mean, I was dealing with this family thing. I felt like everything in my life was changing, and I took that out on you, and I'm sorry.

  Chester P. Runk : Ah, it's... it's all good, Flash.

• Chester P. Runk : That's one crazy cappuccino maker.

  Killer Frost : Close. Sherloque's machine was developed to put one person's mind into another person's memories.

  Kamilla Hwang : Wait, you think Barry's in someone else's mind?

  Killer Frost : I mean, we've had experience with this before. Based on Barry's pulse, his rapid eye movement, and his vitals... and the two brainwaves are a dead giveaway.

  Chester P. Runk : [laughing]  This is so awesome.

  [pantomiming an echo] 

  Chester P. Runk : Awesome. Awesome.

  [seeing Frost's look] 

  Chester P. Runk : I mean, no, this is just awful. We should, uh... we should fix that.

• Barry Allen : [getting a meta alert]  Do you mind manning the comms?

  Chester P. Runk : [laughing in excitement]  I thought you'd never ask. According to our satellites, it is... Rathaway. Pied Piper's back, baby!

  Barry Allen : Okay, I'm gonna need all the help I can get to take him down. Are you ready?

  Chester P. Runk : Oh, hell, yeah.

  Barry Allen : All right.

  Chester P. Runk : [watching him whoosh away]  Oh, that's never gonna get old.
