YMMV / The Flash 2014 S 7 E 1 Alls Wells That Ends Wells

• Ass Pull: The whole idea of Nash Wells having to host the psyche of every Wells from the multiverse is fine as far as comic book superhero logic goes... except for HR Wells. He was dead, and had been so for a few years when Crisis happened. At least Harry, Sherloque, and all the other Wellses (and even Thawne) were still alive before Crisis began. HR hadn’t been in the previous season, either, meaning his appearance comes out of nowhere and is never elaborated on.
• He Really Can Act: Grant Gustin manages to recreate several of Tom Cavanaugh’s different Wellses near seemlessly when they get trapped in Barry’s body.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot
  • If H.R. was able to exist in the mind of Nash Wells despite having already been dead when the multiverse was destroyed, could Earth-1 Wells have been in there, too? He’s mostly likely not shown because he had no real connection to Team Flash (like Harry, Sherloque, and HR) or any obvious quirks (like all the other Wellses), but these factors could have actually made it more interesting to see how he would’ve reacted to everything that happened after his death, including the existence of infinite versions of him.
  • The death of Nash, and by extension the other Wellses, is well-done and emotional. It’s a shame that Caitlin and Cisco couldn’t have come back to properly say farewell, however, as they were the ones who actually got to know Harry, HR, and Sherloque, unlike Allegra and Chester. Barry even comments on Harry and Cisco’s dynamic, making it all the more saddening that this is the second time Cisco will find out Harry is gone after the fact.
