The Flash, Ep. 1.11, “The Sound and the Fury ” and fathers and sons
Since The Flash returned from its winter hiatus, the writers have done a fine job in shifting the spotlight on the supporting cast while also inching one step closer to the showdown between Barry and the Reverse-Flash. In “The Sound and the Fury” we learn more about the past of the mysterious Dr. Harrison Wells when his former protege Hartley Rathaway returns to turn his world upside down and ruin whatever good reputation Wells has left. Hartley begins attacking his family’s business with sonic blasts, and later steals information from S.T.A.R. Labs’ computer that would allow him to identify the frequency of Barry’s molecules so he can kill him. Elsewhere Iris West begins her career as a professional journalist at Central City Picture News, and Joe has Eddie start an investigation on Wells, suspecting his motives are not what they seem.
