[[spoiler:You can see now the moment where Thawne realizes Nora ''didn't'' come up with the plan and that it's actually his future self sending him a message through Nora and the beginnings of the StableTimeLoop built around Cicada's Dagger).]]

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Creator/RickCosnett was [[https://ew.com/tv/2018/12/04/the-flash-100th-episode-nora-spoilers/ originally going]] to return as Eddie Thawne for this episode, but Todd Helbing hinted that scheduling conflicts prevented Cosnett from reprising the role. Helberg also hinted that potential scheduling conflicts similarly prevented the crew from having more scenes of Creator/TeddySears as Zoom or bringing back Creator/TomFelton and Creator/ShantelVanSanten as Dr. Julian Alchemy and Patty Spivot respectively.

* {{Jossed}}: There had been a popular theory floating around that "Nora" was actually Eobard Thawne in disguise. This episode seems to firmly shoot down the idea, as it's instead revealed that Nora really is Nora, but she's being ''manipulated'' by Thawne.
