This week’s episode of “The Flash” was titled “Shade” and it focused on Wally West’s quest to gain speed powers. Throughout the episode Wally was being taunted by the voice of Dr. Alchemy inside his head. He kept seeing visions of his “Flashpoint” life, and it started to drive him crazy.

Eventually Team Flash decided it would be best if Wally followed the voices, that way he would be able to lead them to Dr. Alchemy. Joe West put a task force together, and they accompanied Wally West and The Flash as they searched for Dr. Alchemy.

Once they arrived at Dr. Alchemy’s lair, Wally confronted Alchemy, and Alchemy told him he could have anything he wants. Wally told him that he wants him gone, and then he attacked one of Alchemy’s druids. The task force and The Flash surrounded Alchemy as he got down on his knees.

As Alchemy appeared to be surrendering, a blue streak appeared in the room and started attacking members of the Central City Police Department. Barry told Joe and Wally to leave as he chased the streak.

As Barry was chasing the streak, Dr. Alchemy’s gem was calling to Wally West. Wally then touched the gem and turned into a cocoon.

Barry was then thrown up against a wall, and a speedster appeared. Barry questioned him, and he told Barry that he’s Savitar, the God of Speed. You can check out a picture of Savitar below.
