"The Flash" is still on a break and it won't be back until next week. But thanks to Punkd Images, spoiler-packed pictures from the upcoming episode are now interspersed on the Internet, easing up the long wait. However, upon the show's return, many fear that Eddie Thawne may add up to the Reverse-Flash's body count.
Eddie is seen helpless in one photo. From the looks of it, the evil speedster has snatched the police officer's gun so quickly that he did not even realize it. In another photo, Iris faces up to the Reverse-Flash as well, which only means that he has targeted the people closest to Barry.
In yet another image, The Flash helps out his alter ego's best friend Iris West, who looks scared stiff and down in the mouth watching her man in the balance. The fear all over her face could only mean that her boyfriend's life is in jeopardy. Whether her terror is caused by Eddie's confrontation with someone highly-dangerous like the Reverse-Flash or him being a fatality of the yellow-clad speedster remains to be seen.
In the upcoming episode titled "Out of Time," Cisco will finally see first-hand the Reverse-Flash without a mask. Prior to that moment, Cisco already has his gut feeling even though he initially opposed Detective Joe on his hunch that Barry's mom's killer is Dr. Harrison Wells.
There are various theories about the identity of the Reverse-Flash. The first time the villain attacked, he killed all the Central Police officers in attendance but not Eddie. Perhaps the evil speedster thought it is not the right time. But some fans surmised that Dr. Harrison Wells is Eobard Thawne (Professor Zoom in the comics) simply because he steered clear of killing Eddie.
"Out of Time" will be a busy episode. Barry will have time to go on a double date — him with Linda along with Iris and Eddie. However, this date gets "awkward" and, judging from the photos, it is because Iris may be starting to realize that she may be in love with her best friend. Should it be the case, Eddie will surely hate him and it might open up to the emergence of another Reverse-Flash.
While the forensic scientist deals with his knotty love life, he will also have to take care of Mark Mardon, another weather wizard running amok and seeking revenge for his brother Clyde. Joe's life will be in danger as he is the one who shot Clyde to death.
"The Flash" episode 16 "Out of Time" will be aired on March 17.
