come back to you

As Cisco was getting a machine ready, Iris, Kara, Joe and Mon all ran in, out of breath. "Cisco!" Cisco looked up at the worried group.

"Is that zombie still behind you?" Cisco asked.

"Good news is we lured Tony back to S.T.A.R. Labs. Bad news is we lured Tony back to S.T.A.R. Labs," Iris said.

"No, no. This is good. Okay, sidenote...You all might want to be on this side of the room, especially if you're wearing any jewelry or you have any metal plates in your body," Cisco said.

"Huh?" Iris asked.
"Excuse me?" Joe asked.
"What?" Kara asked.
"What now?" Mon asked.

"The stray energy from the accelerator reactivated Girder's brain...Well, parts of it, anyway. So I disassembled our MRI machine to set up these...Electromagnets. So, when Girder walks through that door and gets caught in the field that they generate, it should disrupt the energy wave that turned him Abby Normal. Like wiping a hard drive. Lah-kah-tah!" Cisco explained as the group stood behind the machine. In the distance, they heard Tony's groans, coming closer. "Okay, now, I can only maintain full power for a few seconds, so I can't actually turn this on until he's in the room." Then Tony, slowly, walked in, and saw everyone. "There he is. Hi!"

Cisco turned on the machine and it blasted Tony, but it didn't do anything to him. "Why doesn't it look like it's working?" Mon asked.

"Because it's not. Uh, let's get out of here," Cisco said before he, and everyone else ran out the back door and into the breach room.

Breach Room

Henry and Harry wheeled Jesse in, while everyone else quickly locked the door. "This is the safest place for her for now," Henry said.

"Not safe enough. Plans A through G did not work. Do we have anything in here that can stop him?" Harry asked.

"Barry could stop him if we could bring him back," Henry said.

"We tried that already, Dr. Allen," Harry said.

"We need to try it again," Henry said as Kara eyed the door.

"Somebody needs to try something," Mon said.

"That door's not gonna hold," Iris said, then Kara activated her heat vision.

"I'm ready for him," she said.

"Oh, God," Iris muttered.

Annoyed, Barry ran in, exhausted from running so much, but he stopped in his tracks when he saw Nora Allen sitting down at the dining room table. "Mom," Barry softly said.

"Hi, Barry," Nora said.

"You're not my mother. Why are you doing this to me?" Barry asked.

"We're not doing anything to you, sweetheart. You're just so tired. Sit, Barry. Sit," Nora said and Barry, tear eyed, sat across from Nora.

"You were right all along. I haven't accepted it...not for a second. I don't think I ever will," Barry said.

"My beautiful boy...You have to find a way," Nora said.

"How?" Barry asked.

"I don't know. But I know this. What you've become...It's wonderful...a miracle even, but it won't make bad things stop happening to you. Even the Flash can't outrun the tragedies the universe is gonna keep sending your way. You have to accept that. And then you can truly run free," Nora said as Barry began to break down.
