“The Flash Is Born” Episode Description: Iris is visited by the Streak, who again pleads with her to stop writing about him. Before he can finish, Barry speeds off to stop a car thief. Barry confronts the thief, but when he hits him the thief’s skin turns to steel and Barry breaks his hand. Barry runs back to the lab before he can be hurt further. The thief is identified as Tony Woodward, who was Barry’s childhood bully. Barry and the team discover Tony’s hideout, and Barry rushes in without a plan to defeat him. Tony gets the upper hand again and Barry is beaten up and left for dead. Back at the lab, Cisco determines that if Barry can hit Tony at over 800 mph at the right angle, then he can create enough force to compromise Tony’s metal structure. Tony kidnaps Iris and demands that she write about him. Barry arrives and successfully hits the speed necessary to temporarily disable Tony’s abilities. Afterward, Tony is locked away at S.T.A.R. labs, and Iris renames her hero “The Flash”. Meanwhile, Joe is visited by the metahuman that killed Barry’s mother, who steals the case file and threatens Joe to drop his investigation.
