* RealityEnsues:
** Team Flash's search for [=DeVoe=] has thus far come up empty because they don't know his first name and "[=DeVoe=]" is a rather common family name.
** A senior CCPD officer and a CSI landing in jail for being in the center of [[BarBrawl a disturbance]]. Not to mention that Joe gets possibly kayoed when he tried to defuse the situation, and Barry is in a drunk stupor, so they can't explain themselves out of it. And getting Barry to explain in the state he is in would probably put them in bigger trouble.

* FailedASpotCheck: For some reason, the CCPD don't seem to notice that the man who came to get Barry, Cisco, Joe and Ralph looked an ''awful lot'' like Harrison Wells, the man who formerly owned S.T.A.R. Labs and reportedly killed Barry's mother. It's probably [[JustifiedTrope justified]] if Harry is wearing a holographic disguise so only Team Flash can see him in his true aspect, as it happened with H.R., but this is never clarified.
