Cisco points at future Barry and calls him an imposter. Then future Barry tells Cisco he always says Spock's line about friendship to him at the end of the movie.

things to avoid alluding to or mentioning, as they won't have happened yet. Barry fails on most counts:
**His past self sees him and after '''No Earth-2''' - Cisco accuses Future!Barry of being tranquilized a {{Doppelganger}}, to which he replies "Not yet".
** '''No breaches''' - Same as above, by extension.
** '''No time travel''' - Almost everything Future!Barry says or does implies knowledge of the future, or use of time travel:
*** He tells Cisco to check Hartley's hearing aids for6 hours, returns and meets face to face with him.
**explosive capabilities, preventing him from escaping as he did originally. When Thawne learns quizzes him on this suggestion, Barry ineffectually dismisses it as a 'hunch'.
*** He leaves his new model iPhone lying around - Caitlin just shrugs this one off, though.
*** He's unusually indifferent to an alert at the CCPD, preferring to focus on the Speed Equation (which itself implies far more knowledge than Barry should have at that point).
*** He demonstrates Phasing, when Thawne had not yet taught him this.
*** He outright says "the Caitlin from the time I'm from" when discussing the tranquilliser dart Future!Caitlin made, cluing the rest of the team into the fact that Barryis from has the future and attempts ability to kill him, only for Barry to bluff his way into survival.
** A Time Wraith, which Thawne identifies as something that targets speedsters who travel through time, follows Barry into the past and tries to kill him.
** In retrospect, the plan itself was so poorly thought out that FailureIsTheOnlyOption anyway. It was sheer luck that things didn't go much worseTimeTravel 4-5 episodes earlier than they did. previously learned this.
*** The fact that the Time Wraith has appeared (and that he casually refers to having seen it before CCPD) clues Thawne into the fact that this Barry has time-travelled, and carelessly.
** '''Dad still in prison''' - This one he ''does'' avoid spoiling.
** '''No Jay Garrick''' - He avoids mentioning this as well.
** '''No suspicion that Wells = Reverse Flash''' - While he doesn't lead Cisco or Caitlin to this suspicion, Past!Wells quickly figures out that this Barry knows who he is, and almost murders Future!Barry, reasoning that doing so will not affect the past.
** '''No Ronnie / Stein''' - Once the facade falls, Future!Barry outright tells Cisco that Hartley knows where Ronnie is. Possibly a {{Justified}} rule-break, however, as by this point, he'd changed so many things that the original sequence of events that led Hartley to show Cisco what happened to Ronnie and Stein may not have happened, so doing this possibly helped ''preserve'' the timeline.
