* NarmCharm: Cisco telling Barry that he's his BFF could have come off as cheesy, but Carlos Valdes sells it perfectly.

* {{Narm}}: Creator/GrantGustin's wig as Future Barry looked really ridiculous for a number of fans. More than a few point out that it makes him look more like an EmoTeen than a man that has fallen into complete despair after the death of the love of his life. He looks similar to Peter Parker's infamous look in the darker parts of ''Film/SpiderMan3'', which itself was a case of high grade {{Narm}}.

It doesn't help that this is a Barry Allen that's meant to be Barry seven years in the future, but the wig instead makes him look ''younger'' (much like how [[Series/{{Arrow}} Oliver]] wears a wig like that when the show wants to show flashbacks to his younger years), completely inverting the intended effect. Generally one expects their brooding future self to look like a grizzled vet, not a pretty boy type.

* FridgeHorror: Future Barry gets a visit from his past self in February 2024 and, by the end of the episode, appears to be willing to get back on his horse and fight the good fight. But we know from past episodes that he vanishes in April 2024 during the Red Skies crisis. Has Barry unwittingly just put himself back into the fight only to doom himself?
