16	1	"State of Emergency"	Alex Brow	Alex Brow	October 10, 2028
Three months after the temporal crisis, CCPD Captain David Singh is murdered by businessman Merrick Wren after uncovering evidence that Wren Civic Systems secretly controls much of Central City's infrastructure. Barry, Joe and Iris investigate while Wren exploits the resulting network failures to obtain emergency authority over public safety and deploy his private Central Response Division. Iris learns from whistleblower Evan Ryder that Wren's HALO surveillance program monitors citizens, police and the Flash, while Wren engineers further emergencies to study Barry's responses and justify expanding his control. Cisco's developing abilities eventually allow him to perceive an echo of Singh's murder, confirming Wren as the killer, although the evidence cannot be used against him. Wren demands that Joe reveal the Flash's identity in exchange for keeping his position; Joe refuses and is dismissed from the CCPD. Barry and his allies resolve to build a case against Wren while Iris publicly exposes HALO. Meanwhile, Wally begins displaying unexplained bursts of golden electricity. Wren later obtains Singh's files and orders HALO to investigate Barry, Cisco and Wally, identifying the latter's energy as an emerging anomaly.
17	2	"Impact"	Alex Brow	Alex Brow	October 17, 2028
Wren recruits Darius Vale, a metahuman capable of absorbing and releasing kinetic energy, to attack the Flash and provide HALO with data on Barry's behavior. Barry initially strengthens Vale by repeatedly striking him, but realizes that Wren is deliberately forcing him to choose between pursuing Vale and saving civilians. Meanwhile, Joe and Iris discover evidence that Wren secretly removed Vale from federal custody months earlier, while Wally demonstrates genuine super-speed for the first time. After Vale attacks the East Span suspension bridge, Barry uses kinetic sinks developed by Cisco, Wells and Wally to drain his stored energy and subdue him without further empowering him. Vale nevertheless tears part of Barry's cowl and obtains a blood sample before being taken into custody. Wren subsequently murders Vale using a kill switch built into his harness and retrieves the sample. He compares the blood against municipal medical records, conclusively identifying Barry Allen as the Flash and unlocking Singh's protected files confirming that Singh and Joe had concealed Barry's identity.
