Six months later, while using his speed to repair Central City, Barry operates alone, being the hero and savior of the public and the local government; Cisco works in the police department alongside Joe, and Caitlin works at Mercury Labs. Barry evaluates a crime scene with a victim named Al Rothstein. At a ceremony, the Flash is attacked by Atom - Smasher, whose strength and size manipulation prove too much for Barry, but manages to force his mask off. Underneath the mask Atom - Smasher is revealed to look exactly like Rothstein. Barry is convinced by Joe and the others that he needs help in taking down certain metahumans and Rothstein is defeated by over absorbing radiation. As he dies, Rothstein tells Barry that he was sent to kill him by a person called Zoom. Barry receives a flash memory from Thawne 's lawyer containing Thawne 's confession to killing Nora.

Stein confirms the claim, describing their world as "Earth - 1 '' and Jay 's as "Earth - 2 ''. Zoom brings another metahuman from Earth - 2 called Sand Demon, later identified as Eddie Slick, to kill the Flash. Cisco analyzes the "sand '' left behind and has a vision of the previous fight, frightening him. After Slick kidnaps Officer Patty Spivot, Jay teaches Barry how to hurl lightning.

Eventually, the team determines that Lewis placed a bomb inside of Lisa and threatened to kill her if Snart did not help him with his theft. Barry infiltrates Lewis ' crew with assistance from Snart.
