Description
The episode begins with Barry Allen, a forensic crime scene investigator for the Central City Police Department, recounting the troubles of his youth, including the murder of his mother who was stabbed during a lightning storm by a yellow blur, and his father being falsely imprisoned for the crime. In the present, Barry investigates a robbery and discovers evidence suggesting the Mardon brothers committed it. Later, Barry attends the unveiling of a particle accelerator created by Dr. Harrison Wells with his best friend Iris West at S.T.A.R. Labs. It explodes sending out an electrical surge, and Barry is struck by lightning created by it. Meanwhile, Iris' father, Detective Joe West, and his partner Fred Chyre follow the evidence Barry found. They discover the Mardon brothers attempting to flee in a plane. Chyre is killed, and the brothers are presumed dead after their plane crashes because of the electrical surge.
