Iris confronts Barry about this, because his claim to be concerned about the integrity of their timeline is pretty bogus *cough*FLASHPOINT*cough.

While Iris is thrilled about connecting with her daughter, Barry is highly skeptical and kinda cold. What does surprise me is the difference in their initial reactions. Image Source: knew I’d absolutely love everything about seeing Barry and Iris be parents to Nora, and I totally do. DAMN.īarry and Iris as parental units is pretty schway. Why this desperate move? Well, Nora reveals to Barry that a few years after she’s born, he disappears and has been missing for 25 years. And eventually we learn that Nora has purposely slowed down her speed with negative tachyons, all to extend her time with her father. (Thanks Flash museum of the future!) She is thoroughly her Daddy’s girl: Nora studies exactly what Barry studied in college, she’s also a CSI. Nora is very excited to join Team Flash and is knowledgeable about all their exploits, even the ones that haven’t happened yet. As the team tries to figure out how to help Nora, Barry and Iris have to deal with meeting their adult daughter. We learn that Nora has come back from 30 years in the future, and unfortunately can’t run fast enough to enter the Speed Force and go back to her timeline.

Many of us suspected that it was a WestAllen baby (*flails*), and then at the end of the season finale, this was confirmed! Season 5 picks up with Nora West-Allen confronting her parents, relatives, and family friends, who are all incredibly shocked to realize who she is. Image Source: through the second half of Season 4, I wondered who was this beautiful young woman pseudo-stalking Team Flash. Nora West-Allen, the fastest woman alive. Basically, I’m so ready for this season! Let’s discuss the highlights! But even more, I really like who Barry, Iris, and the rest of the team are with Nora around. This week The Flash burst back on the scene with an amazing premiere episode for its fifth season! I just knew that introducing Nora West-Allen to Team Flash would open up some much potential for the show’s arc, but I didn’t realize how much I would completely adore Nora from the beginning. In the premiere episode of The Flash‘s fifth season, we learn why Nora has journeyed back in time and the big implications for Barry and Team Flash.
