Barry's gonna save his mom, bro! But what if he makes something worse instead? Like his dad dies and his mother goes to jail, instead? Pissing in the time stream like this can not be good for it.
This is why I think Joe's biting it in the finale. Far as I can tell, he's not a major character in the comics. Plus, things can't possibly go perfectly for the Flash or there won't be much room for any signifigant drama. Something has to go wrong.

What was the line? I didn't hear it.
Cold said he thought Ferris air field was closed down and someone (Joe?) said it was after a test pilot went missing. Barry said it.

I'm hoping Barry realizes he can't save her, and just uses the time he has to say goodbye to her, instead. Maybe find a way to clear his dad's name, at least.

Holy balls, what an episode.
I legit cracked up when Snart played the Cold as Ice song in the bar.

I thought there was just too much going on tonight.
This should have been spread out over a couple of episodes.
I know he's chewing scenery, but man, Wentworth Miller is great as Captain Cold.

The last time Barry played in time he {Spoiler}{Spoiler}prevented Cisco's demise True, but everyone seemed to agree that playing with time like that would have consequences. ........not certain we've seen said consequences for that one yet... Anyway, the concern for viewers should be that this finale and what he does in the past could change the entire show into something different next season. Because Barry trying to save his mom IS the reason for FLASHPOINT and The New 52.

So just to have the correct timeline in my head, does yesterday's episode of Flash happen before last week's episode of Arrow?

If he does save his mom that would really make the show a mess. So does he bring her back to present day with a whole alternate reality? Means he never moves in with Joe and Iris so their relationships would be vastly different.

Reverse Flash/Wells/Thawne, Grodd, and Captain Cold have been 3 fantastic villains this season. Cold especially has been all kinds of fun.
Somehow I failed to realize the first time around that Nimbus is also Zsasz on Gotham.

I believe the consequence was Thawne killing the reporter that was going to expose him. The point being once a death has occurred, that space in time is forever reserved for a death.
Barry may save his mom, but someone has to die.

Doctor Who has taught me plenty about fixed points in time and what happens if you mess with them

This finale is seriously going to end on a cliffhanger that will have me pulling my hair for the next 6 months until season 2.
