1. Call us here, our lines
are open. Now for a quick update...Copy !req
2. here's Stan, the weatherman.Copy !req
3. Get out your handkerchiefs.Copy !req
4. We're in for another scorcher tomorrow.Copy !req
5. Hot and humid, with the mercury
climbing into the 90s...Copy !req
6. and there's no relief in sight.Copy !req
7. Man! It must be over 100 degrees
in here!Copy !req
8. Can't you do something about it?Copy !req
9. Hey, the air conditioning's busted.
The repairman's on his way.Copy !req
10. Heat's not the problem.
Jimmy Swain is the problem.Copy !req
11. Not for me, Vega. It's your territory
he's making a run at.Copy !req
12. Listen.Copy !req
13. Swain's got his torpedoes working
the west side. Once he soaks that up...Copy !req
14. - ... he'll move in on Little Hong Kong.
- In another month, we'll be squeezed out.Copy !req
15. Swain'll have this whole city
in his tight, dirty pocket.Copy !req
16. I say we take him out now.Copy !req
17. Send the message that no out-of-town
punk is gonna move us out.Copy !req
18. - I agree.
Last thing we need...Copy !req
19. is somebody screwing up
the balance of power.Copy !req
20. Somebody call for a repairman?Copy !req
21. Hello?Copy !req
22. - Who is it?
I'm here from Central City Air...Copy !req
23. to repair the air conditioning.Copy !req
24. Hi. How you doing, sir?Copy !req
25. Air conditioner's on the fritz.
Make it cool in here.Copy !req
26. Oh, don't you worry about a thing.
Cool is my specialty.Copy !req
27. Hello.Copy !req
28. Bar, sorry to wake you.Copy !req
29. - Julio.
- I'm down in Helltown...Copy !req
30. at the St. Diogenes Social Club.Copy !req
31. I think you should get over here.
We got a weird one.Copy !req
32. Move back here.Copy !req
33. Come on. Over here.Copy !req
34. Hey man, what's up?
Can you believe this heat?Copy !req
35. I got something else
you won't believe.Copy !req
36. What's that?
You'll see.Copy !req
37. These guys are frozen solid.Copy !req
38. It's gotta be about 90 degrees
out there.Copy !req
39. How could this happen?Copy !req
40. From the positions
of the bodies, they were...Copy !req
41. killed trying to get away.Copy !req
42. A sudden subzero drop
in body temperature.Copy !req
43. It could be liquid oxygen.
Or nitrogen maybe.Copy !req
44. You'd have to drop the bodies
in a vat of the stuff to get this effect.Copy !req
45. These guys were frozen on the spot.
I don't know how.Copy !req
46. Well, let me spur
your conjecturing, Allen.Copy !req
47. Meet the late Nikolai Brown...Copy !req
48. Ray McGill, Luis Vega...Copy !req
49. and attempting to dial 911,
Johnny Choi.Copy !req
50. - What?
- That's right.Copy !req
51. Central City's criminal board of directors.Copy !req
52. Combined, they control virtually all
the crime in this town. Ha! Or they did.Copy !req
53. It must've been serious for all them
to sit down together.Copy !req
54. I need some answers. Fast.Copy !req
55. I don't know if I got a quadruple homicide
or a freak of nature.Copy !req
56. You have no right!
Ever hear of freedom of speech?Copy !req
57. - This is closed to reporters.
- It's a violation of my rights!Copy !req
58. Nobody crosses this line
without authorization.Copy !req
59. All right! I get the message.Copy !req
60. But your name's on my list,
Officer Bellows!Copy !req
61. Ow! Oh, nice! Do you have any idea
how much a manicure costs these days?Copy !req
62. - What were you doing?
- Trying to get past Dirty Harry...Copy !req
63. not that it's any of your business.
Hey, you guys work for the crime lab?Copy !req
64. - Yeah, not that it's any of your business.
- Right. This is great.Copy !req
65. I hear you got a couple of human
snow cones in there.Copy !req
66. You give me an exclusive,
I'll put your name in the paper.Copy !req
67. - What do you say?
- Bellows!Copy !req
68. Escort Lois Lane back across the police
barricade and make sure she stays there.Copy !req
69. Yeah? How's this for a headline:
"Police rough up reporter."Copy !req
70. Don't tempt me, lady. Let's go.Copy !req
71. Your name is on my list too.
You got that? Watch yourself, ace!Copy !req
72. Ow!Copy !req
73. I love it!Copy !req
74. No more infighting over turf.Copy !req
75. No more slicing the pie so thin you can't
even see the wedge on your plate.Copy !req
76. From now on, this city is gonna be run
by a single entrepreneur: me.Copy !req
77. Oh, no, thank you.Copy !req
78. You know, I like the way
you clean house.Copy !req
79. I'm offering you a permanent position
in my organization. I'll pay you well.Copy !req
80. Oh, that's very flattering of you,
Mr. Swain, but you see...Copy !req
81. one of the great pleasures
of my job is the travel.Copy !req
82. Hmm.Copy !req
83. Have it your way.Copy !req
84. The rest of your payment,
as we agreed...Copy !req
85. and I thank you.Copy !req
86. Hey, listen, uh...Copy !req
87. There is one more little job I'd like
for you to do before you leave town.Copy !req
88. Oh, I'd really like to,
but I have reservations in St. Tropez.Copy !req
89. Yeah. Work on that tan.Copy !req
90. You're probably not the right guy
for this job anyway.Copy !req
91. It's a tough number.Copy !req
92. A real challenge.Copy !req
93. Oh, really?Copy !req
94. - I'm listening.
- Well, there's this guy in town...Copy !req
95. I'm worried about. He's put a lot
of my peers out of business...Copy !req
96. and I'd be very grateful if you'd...Copy !req
97. put him on ice.Copy !req
98. And who is this?Copy !req
99. He calls himself...Copy !req
100. the Flash.Copy !req
101. Oh.Copy !req
102. The Flash.Copy !req
103. Anything new
on those frozen bodies?Copy !req
104. No. The coroner hasn't got a clue.Copy !req
105. I'll have Tina run a tissue sample
through Star Labs.Copy !req
106. Any suspects?Copy !req
107. They could be aliens
from the Earth's core.Copy !req
108. - What?
- Like the Flash.Copy !req
109. Julio, come on,
you don't really read this rag, do you?Copy !req
110. You gotta wrap the fish
in something, right?Copy !req
111. Mendez! Allen!Copy !req
112. Almost got away.Copy !req
113. Gentlemen, this is Terri Kronenberg,
a reporter for The Daily Clarion.Copy !req
114. Ms. Kronenberg, Julio Mendez,
Barry Allen, our forensic scientists.Copy !req
115. Yes, Mr. Allen and I have already met.
How's your foot?Copy !req
116. Just fine. How's your hand?Copy !req
117. Ms. Kronenberg
is on special assignment...Copy !req
118. to do a series of articles about
the police. The mayor's office asked us...Copy !req
119. to extend every courtesy.Copy !req
120. I'd like you to show her the crime lab
and tell her what you do.Copy !req
121. Lieutenant, we're very busy up
in the crime lab at the moment.Copy !req
122. We are all very busy, Allen...Copy !req
123. but the chief's office thinks
the publicity could be good for us.Copy !req
124. - Need I say more?
- No, sir.Copy !req
125. Uh, look, why don't we just...Copy !req
126. let bygones be bygones
and forget our little disagreement?Copy !req
127. What do you say?Copy !req
128. I'd better run those tissue samples
to Star Labs...Copy !req
129. but I'm sure Mr. Mendez
will be happy to show you to the lab.Copy !req
130. Sure, Barry.Copy !req
131. - Is he married?
Excuse me.Copy !req
132. I understand you're a reporter and you're
doing a story on Central City's finest.Copy !req
133. - Uh, that's right.
- Great. Allow me to introduce myself.Copy !req
134. I'm Officer Murphy, somewhat
of a legend here in the police department.Copy !req
135. - I'll make myself available for interviews.
- Thanks, that's very considerate of you.Copy !req
136. I was thinking perhaps
over dinner maybe...Copy !req
137. I could tell you cop stories that would
make Jack the Ripper look like a musical.Copy !req
138. A musical comedy.Copy !req
139. Yes, no doubt. Uh, why don't you just
write your adventures down...Copy !req
140. and I'll read them
when you're done.Copy !req
141. —can you get line three?Copy !req
142. - Line three for you.
Hold on just one second.Copy !req
143. Why not?Copy !req
144. Why not?Copy !req
145. "Michael Francis Murphy:Copy !req
146. Dedicated cop, hard-hitting novelist."Copy !req
147. No. "Hard-hitting cop, unsparing author."Copy !req
148. Murphy, this is great.Copy !req
149. I thought you had
some theory to run past me.Copy !req
150. Yeah. Um...Copy !req
151. - You know spontaneous combustion?
- When things seem to burst...Copy !req
152. - ... into flames on their own.
- Exactly. Well...Copy !req
153. I was thinking this might be that,
only opposite.Copy !req
154. No one knows that spontaneous
combustion really happens.Copy !req
155. It's just a theory.Copy !req
156. And I've never heard
of spontaneous freezing.Copy !req
157. But there must be
some rational explanation.Copy !req
158. Let me run that tissue sample
through my analysis equipment.Copy !req
159. If I come up with anything...Copy !req
160. - ... I'll let you know.
- Thanks, Tina.Copy !req
161. Well, I better get back to the crime lab.
Hopefully Ms. Kronenberg will be gone.Copy !req
162. Dinner, anyone?Copy !req
163. - Hello.
- I heard you might be working late...Copy !req
164. I thought you might be hungry.
So I've got Chinese, Italian and Mexican.Copy !req
165. I have trouble making decisions.Copy !req
166. Well, this is very nice,
but really, it's not necessary.Copy !req
167. All right, look, about the other night...Copy !req
168. I acted like a jerk.Copy !req
169. Well, I mean, not so much a jerk
as much as I was just sort of pushy.Copy !req
170. All right, actually, to tell you the truth,
I was a jerk.Copy !req
171. But it's my job. I take it very seriously,
and it makes me a little aggressive.Copy !req
172. It's a problem,
and I've been working on it.Copy !req
173. I'm a lot better.
You should've seen me before.Copy !req
174. It's a trait, it runs in my family. So, what
I'm trying to say here is I'm sorry, okay?Copy !req
175. Do you ever breathe?Copy !req
176. - Yeah, that's another thing, I talk a lot.
- Oh, really? I hadn't noticed.Copy !req
177. I guess I figure that if I let someone
else get a word in edgewise, well...Copy !req
178. they're just gonna tell me I'm wrong.
My therapist says I'm insecure.Copy !req
179. - I don't know, what do you think?
- I think it's okay to listen.Copy !req
180. You know, you're smart.Copy !req
181. I like brains in a man,
I think that's sexy.Copy !req
182. I, uh— I think maybe we should eat
before the food gets cold.Copy !req
183. So.Copy !req
184. What, uh...?
What do you know about the Flash?Copy !req
185. The Flash? Um, not much, why?Copy !req
186. Well, I have this theory. I think that
he's a member of the police department.Copy !req
187. Really? What makes you say that?Copy !req
188. Well, come on, think about it.
Why can't they catch him?Copy !req
189. Because he knows every move they're
gonna make. It's because he's a cop.Copy !req
190. Interesting theory.
I'm not sure I buy it.Copy !req
191. I asked some of your fellow officers
who, uh, they all thought the Flash was.Copy !req
192. Everyone had a different answer.Copy !req
193. You friend Julio even thought once
that you were the Flash.Copy !req
194. What's so funny?Copy !req
195. Well, you don't really strike me
as the type. You're not physical enough.Copy !req
196. Well, I stay in shape.Copy !req
197. Oh, no, no, no. Don't get me wrong.
You look terrific for a scientist.Copy !req
198. Well, thank you.Copy !req
199. Listen, why are you so interested
in the Flash anyway?Copy !req
200. Well, he's news, you know. I would love
to get an interview with him.Copy !req
201. Any reporter would.Copy !req
202. Barry.Copy !req
203. Tina. This is Terri Kronenberg,
she's a reporter.Copy !req
204. Oh, yes. I've heard about you.Copy !req
205. This is Tina McGee,
she's a scientist too. Star Labs.Copy !req
206. Sorry to interrupt.Copy !req
207. I've just analyzed the tissue
and found something interesting.Copy !req
208. - Would you excuse us a moment?
- Uh, sure.Copy !req
209. There was a low level
of residual radiation.Copy !req
210. Not too dangerous,
but higher than normal.Copy !req
211. What does it mean?Copy !req
212. They were frozen by something that
uses nuclear energy as a power source.Copy !req
213. Sounds like some kind of weapon.Copy !req
214. It does, doesn't it?Copy !req
215. All right, let's move.Copy !req
216. Come on.Copy !req
217. Move it, people!Copy !req
218. Let's go.
Bellows, what's going on?Copy !req
219. Some creep phoned in. He left three
packages with bombs in the city.Copy !req
220. - They're about to set off in five minutes.
Where?Copy !req
221. There's one at Central Books, one at...Copy !req
222. So, um, you're a reporter.
That must be interesting.Copy !req
223. And you're a scientist.
That must be dull. Excuse me.Copy !req
224. Don't touch that!Copy !req
225. Where is it?Copy !req
226. Yeah, I knew if I raced you
all over town, you'd run out of steam.Copy !req
227. You look pretty hot.Copy !req
228. I think I'd better cool you off.Copy !req
229. Oh, boy, you've got some
pretty good moves there, red.Copy !req
230. But you know what?Copy !req
231. Even you can't outrun
the cold hand of death.Copy !req
232. Looks like we're gonna have
to call this one a draw, huh?Copy !req
233. Until we meet again.Copy !req
234. Still hurting, huh?
- Yeah, but it's better.Copy !req
235. I'm telling you, the blast went through
the suit like it wasn't even there.Copy !req
236. Barry, I did some research last night.Copy !req
237. I think I know where that weapon
came from.Copy !req
238. A company in California have been
doing research in biological cryogenics.Copy !req
239. The freezing of living organisms.Copy !req
240. They developed
a portable freezing unit...Copy !req
241. powered by
a lightweight nuclear module.Copy !req
242. It can fire a blast that can lower
a temperature to minus 200 degrees F...Copy !req
243. at a range of 100 feet.Copy !req
244. Six months ago, burglars broke in
and stole it.Copy !req
245. That's the weapon he was carrying.Copy !req
246. Barry, I want you to consider something.Copy !req
247. Last night was a trap.Copy !req
248. Whoever set those bombs knew the Flash
would race around to defuse them...Copy !req
249. and the exertion would exhaust you.Copy !req
250. - I think you should lay low for a while.
- Hide out till it's safe?Copy !req
251. - I can't do that.
- Barry, someone is trying to kill you!Copy !req
252. One blast could freeze you in your tracks
before you even got close.Copy !req
253. I'll just have to find him first.Copy !req
254. Okay, but I want to be able
to keep an eye on you.Copy !req
255. I've implanted this mini transmitter
in your suit's earpiece.Copy !req
256. It'll allow me to track you.Copy !req
257. If there's an emergency
and your vital signs reach critical...Copy !req
258. it'll trigger an alarm off
here in the lab.Copy !req
259. Thanks, Tina.Copy !req
260. You know, I really do appreciate
the concern.Copy !req
261. - Crime Lab, Allen speaking.
It's Fosnight.Copy !req
262. - What do you got?
- That guy that tried to frost the Flash...Copy !req
263. is the same guy who threw
the igloo pie at the St. Diogenes Club.Copy !req
264. Yeah, no kidding. What's his name?Copy !req
265. How about a nickname,
Captain Cold.Copy !req
266. Ex-mercenary, now he's a hit man.Copy !req
267. Captain Cold?
What's this guy look like?Copy !req
268. It's pretty hard to miss him.
He's an albino.Copy !req
269. Don't let the pink eyes fool you,
the guy's a stone killer.Copy !req
270. Hit men have employers, right?Copy !req
271. Right. There's a power play
brewing in the underworld.Copy !req
272. A punk from back east named
Jimmy Swain is trying to move in.Copy !req
273. He hired Cold
to refrigerate the obstacles...Copy !req
274. and that includes the Flash.Copy !req
275. All right. Thanks, Fosnight. Oh, um,
how much is this gonna cost me?Copy !req
276. You couldn't afford it, copper.Copy !req
277. But the Flash is a pretty good egg,
more or less, so this one's a giveaway.Copy !req
278. Later, Allen.Copy !req
279. Yeah.Copy !req
280. The Inquisitor.Copy !req
281. "Inquisitor has learned that police
and scientists from Star Labs...Copy !req
282. have joined forces to search
for a killer...Copy !req
283. with a nuclear-powered
freeze weapon."Copy !req
284. Here you go.Copy !req
285. "Murphy's Law: The true story
of Michael Francis Murphy...Copy !req
286. the cop who saved Central City"?Copy !req
287. - My eyes only, Bellows. My eyes only!
- What are you doing?Copy !req
288. Writing the first of a long line
of bestselling novels...Copy !req
289. that'll allow me to be the guy
in the hammock with a blue drink...Copy !req
290. - ... on the French Riviera.
- When did you save Central City?Copy !req
291. It's called dramatic license.Copy !req
292. Oh! I had a different word for it, see?Copy !req
293. - Where's Terri Kronenberg?
- Uh, I last saw her in Garfield's office.Copy !req
294. - Something wrong?
- I'll handle it.Copy !req
295. I need an address on Jimmy Swain.
He's a criminal from out of town.Copy !req
296. All right.Copy !req
297. - Did you write this?
- Me?Copy !req
298. Whatever gave you that idea?Copy !req
299. You're the only one
who could've heard us talking last night.Copy !req
300. Well, I—Copy !req
301. I called the Clarion, they never heard
of you. Neither did the mayor's office.Copy !req
302. You're not here to do a story. That was
just a scam. What's it really about?Copy !req
303. Call the Department of Public Affairs.Copy !req
304. - I'm sure that they—
- The Flash!Copy !req
305. That's it, isn't it? You want to do a story
about the Flash for the Inquisitor.Copy !req
306. - No, you don't understand.
- The hell I don't.Copy !req
307. You were pumping me
for information last night.Copy !req
308. Look, I have tried to get a job
with the Clarion for two years.Copy !req
309. I only work for the Inquisitor
because they'd hire me.Copy !req
310. The Flash is an alien?Copy !req
311. I figured if I could get a story
on the Flash...Copy !req
312. the Clarion would give me a chance.Copy !req
313. Either you tell Lieutenant Garfield
the truth...Copy !req
314. or I will.Copy !req
315. You're supposed to be low profile!Copy !req
316. What's next? Your own TV series?Copy !req
317. You said the Flash was gonna be dead
in 24 hours. What happened?Copy !req
318. Well, he was faster than I thought.Copy !req
319. But don't worry about it.
Don't get upset.Copy !req
320. It won't happen again.Copy !req
321. I've built an electronic scanner...Copy !req
322. that allows me to track anything moving
through the city faster than 200 mph.Copy !req
323. Next time he won't get away.Copy !req
324. There's not gonna be a next time.
You're fired.Copy !req
325. - But we have a contract.
- I'm canceling it.Copy !req
326. - You generate too much publicity.
- What about the rest of my money?Copy !req
327. The other half was on delivery.
You didn't deliver.Copy !req
328. Okay. If that's the way you want it.Copy !req
329. Oh, by the way...Copy !req
330. I have something for you,
a little gift. It's, uh...Copy !req
331. I always give one to my customers
at the end of every job.Copy !req
332. It's, uh...Copy !req
333. for good luck.Copy !req
334. Just to show there's no hard feelings.Copy !req
335. See you around.Copy !req
336. You know...Copy !req
337. that's the trouble with the world
these days, Mr. Swain.Copy !req
338. People have forgotten
about honor and commitment.Copy !req
339. Nobody cancels a contract with me.Copy !req
340. Once I take a job, I always finish it.Copy !req
341. No matter what.Copy !req
342. Hey, Barry, where you been?
We've got work to do.Copy !req
343. - The ice man struck again.
- Where?Copy !req
344. Remember that guy you asked
Bellows to locate, Jimmy Swain?Copy !req
345. He found him in an apartment
at Bradbury Arms, frozen solid.Copy !req
346. - Jimmy Swain?
- That's not all.Copy !req
347. Garfield got a call on another one.
Somebody found an iced stiff...Copy !req
348. at the metalworks,
it's on Sturgeon Street.Copy !req
349. - I'll take Sturgeon Street.
- I'll take the Bradbury Arms then.Copy !req
350. Gotcha! Great makeup, huh?
I feel sort of like a Christmas tree.Copy !req
351. - Are you out of your mind?
- Hi, I'm Terri Kronenberg, I'm a reporter.Copy !req
352. I know you're a very busy guy. I only
need five minutes for an interview, okay?Copy !req
353. It's important to me, and I'm sure
you won't mind. What's the deal?Copy !req
354. Do you sleep in the suit
or wear pajamas?Copy !req
355. Get these cuffs off of me.Copy !req
356. Not till I get my interview.Copy !req
357. Will you give me the key,
or do I have to search you?Copy !req
358. That sounds like fun,
but I don't have it on me.Copy !req
359. I hid it somewhere in the city.
Either give me my interview...Copy !req
360. - ... or we can search the city.
- I've got a better option:Copy !req
361. Hypothermia.Copy !req
362. Hey.Copy !req
363. Hey, get up. Get up!Copy !req
364. Sorry.Copy !req
365. This just isn't your night.Copy !req
366. Barry! My God!Copy !req
367. Where are you?Copy !req
368. Sorry. No witnesses.Copy !req
369. Aah!Copy !req
370. Clarion.
- Hi, I need to talk to the news editor.Copy !req
371. - Sorry, he's gone home for the day.
- You'd better find him, and fast.Copy !req
372. Tell him to dig out his checkbook.Copy !req
373. Somebody just killed the Flash,
and I got pictures of it.Copy !req
374. Come on, let's go!
Get the body to Forensics fast!Copy !req
375. Let's go!Copy !req
376. Get it in there!Copy !req
377. Perfect! Bellows, inside! Come on!Copy !req
378. Give me a hand over here.
Yeah.Copy !req
379. Over here.
I got it.Copy !req
380. National Inquisitor.
- Yes, this is Hogan Film Labs.Copy !req
381. We have a rush delivery
for one of your reporters...Copy !req
382. a Miss Terri Kronenberg.Copy !req
383. We seem to have misplaced the address.Copy !req
384. You can't die. I won't let you die.Copy !req
385. Damn it, Barry! Come on!Copy !req
386. Why wouldn't you listen to me, Barry?
Why?Copy !req
387. Come on, Barry!Copy !req
388. Tina.Copy !req
389. Barry?Copy !req
390. I thought you were dead.Copy !req
391. Oh!Copy !req
392. It's so cold.Copy !req
393. Why am I alive?Copy !req
394. Your high-speed metabolism
must have saved you.Copy !req
395. I could see everything.Copy !req
396. He was standing over me, grinning.
And then...Copy !req
397. he went for Terri.Copy !req
398. - Terri Kronenberg? She was there?
- He's gonna kill her.Copy !req
399. - You're in no shape—
- Just call the station.Copy !req
400. Tell them to get to her apartment.Copy !req
401. Miss Kronenberg?
It's Jason from Central City Courier.Copy !req
402. Here to pick up your pictures.Copy !req
403. I told the Clarion not to pick them up
for another hour.Copy !req
404. Well, I can't wait. I'm here.Copy !req
405. You ordered some ice?Copy !req
406. What's the matter?
Don't you wanna come out and play?Copy !req
407. I'm here to take you
to the Ice Capades.Copy !req
408. I'll huff and I'll puff...Copy !req
409. and I'll freeze all your stuff.Copy !req
410. I know you're in there,
I can smell your cheap perfume.Copy !req
411. Are you hiding in the shower?Copy !req
412. The ice man cometh.Copy !req
413. Hello there.Copy !req
414. - You're alive.
- No thanks to you.Copy !req
415. Uh...Copy !req
416. Hey, I'm sorry about what happened.
It's just that I—Copy !req
417. Oh. Oh!Copy !req
418. Oh, look at what you've done!Copy !req
419. You ruined all my photos!Copy !req
420. I could've got 10,000 bucks
for those pictures of you...Copy !req
421. and Mr. Ice Cube here.Copy !req
422. - Thanks a lot. There goes my career.
Wait a minute.Copy !req
423. You had pictures of Captain Cold
and you didn't call the police?Copy !req
424. They would've seen them
on the front page of the Clarion.Copy !req
425. I don't believe you!Copy !req
426. All you care about is your money
and your career. You almost got us killed!Copy !req
427. - No, I didn't— I didn't mean to—
- You didn't mean to what?Copy !req
428. To be an unprincipled,
manipulative brat...Copy !req
429. who thinks truth is something
to be twisted to get what you want?Copy !req
430. If you really wanna be
a good reporter...Copy !req
431. you have to learn to care
about the truth. And about people.Copy !req
432. The police will be here for him.Copy !req
433. Hey, Murph, did you hear the news?Copy !req
434. - Looks like the Flash isn't dead after all.
- What?Copy !req
435. Well, he captured
that Captain Cold character...Copy !req
436. at Terri Kronenberg's apartment.Copy !req
437. I knew that frozen phony we found
at the metalworks wasn't the real thing.Copy !req
438. Murphy!Copy !req
439. Would you mind putting
your memoirs away long enough...Copy !req
440. - ... to escort the prisoner to lockup?
Yes, sir.Copy !req
441. - All right, iceberg, let's move it.
Easy now.Copy !req
442. I'm gonna need your glasses.Copy !req
443. My eyes are very sensitive
to the light.Copy !req
444. Well, then keep them shut.
I need your glasses.Copy !req
445. If you wish.Copy !req
446. No, uh...Copy !req
447. you keep them.Copy !req
448. "There I stood, face to face
with the madman known as the Ghost.Copy !req
449. He had kidnapped my girl,
killed my partner...Copy !req
450. and shot my dog.Copy !req
451. Now it was time for him to learn
the real meaning of Murphy's Law."Copy !req
452. Hey, hey, hey!
That's private property, huh?Copy !req
453. Come on. You'll have to wait
for the hardcover edition...Copy !req
454. like the rest of the world.Copy !req
455. Don't you have doughnuts to eat
and coffee to ruin? Come on.Copy !req
456. I had no idea you were such a hero.
I mean, with a guy like you around...Copy !req
457. who needs the Flash?Copy !req
458. You'll laugh on the other side
of your badge...Copy !req
459. when I sell those movie rights, pal.Copy !req
460. Hey, you.Copy !req
461. "Hey, you"?Copy !req
462. Hey, what are you doing?
What's going on?Copy !req
463. It's a portable heating unit
we've been experimenting with...Copy !req
464. for work in Arctic conditions.Copy !req
465. If you're hit with cold air,
it instantaneously stabilizes...Copy !req
466. your body temperature
with a blast of heat.Copy !req
467. With the temperatures that Captain Cold
can create, it'll probably only work once.Copy !req
468. Let's hope that once is all I'll need.Copy !req
469. I've studied the properties
of his freeze gun.Copy !req
470. A reflective surface
may bounce the ice beam away.Copy !req
471. Thanks. I'll remember.Copy !req
472. - Murphy!
- Yes, sir.Copy !req
473. Did you search "Winter"
before you put him in lockup?Copy !req
474. - Absolutely. Stem to stern—
- Obviously, not good enough!Copy !req
475. You're on report!Copy !req
476. I always finish it, no matter what.Copy !req
477. Come on, you don't have
to prove anything to anybody.Copy !req
478. Because of me, he escaped.
I'm the guy that screwed up.Copy !req
479. Boy, were you right, that Murphy's Law.
More like Murphy's Guffaw.Copy !req
480. I didn't say that.Copy !req
481. The only way
I'm gonna redeem myself...Copy !req
482. is to turn Frosty the Snowman
into a puddle.Copy !req
483. Tina, listen, I'm okay, all right?
I have a little cold, that's all.Copy !req
484. Well, you don't sound okay.Copy !req
485. Stay in bed and take care of yourself.
No flashing around...Copy !req
486. - ... or you'll get pneumonia.
- Yes, mom.Copy !req
487. I am not your mother!Copy !req
488. Ow! Jeez.Copy !req
489. Ugh.Copy !req
490. Whoo.Copy !req
491. Uh, listen, I'm not feeling very well.
Could you come back later?Copy !req
492. Barry, I really need to talk to you.
This is just gonna take a minute.Copy !req
493. Uh, all right, here goes.Copy !req
494. I was a real louse, and I know it.Copy !req
495. You were so nice
and you trusted me...Copy !req
496. and I lied to you.
There's really no excuse.Copy !req
497. I was only thinking of myself,
I wasn't even thinking of anybody else.Copy !req
498. It's just that my job is important to me,
and I really wanted to get a big story.Copy !req
499. What?Copy !req
500. Friends of yours?Copy !req
501. Coming!Copy !req
502. Where you been? I been looking for you.
I tried calling you, the line was busy.Copy !req
503. Okay.Copy !req
504. - All right, I get it.
- No. I came home because I'm sick.Copy !req
505. - What's up?
- Okay, we got a real crisis on our hands.Copy !req
506. Captain Cold broke out of lockup and
froze a city bus with passengers inside.Copy !req
507. He called the station and said if the Flash
didn't meet him, he'd let them freeze.Copy !req
508. - No sign of the Flash.
- Where's the bus?Copy !req
509. It's on Poplar and Fourth.Copy !req
510. Garfield thinks, with our knowledge,
we can figure out how to stop this guy.Copy !req
511. If that bus is frozen, those passengers
won't last 10 minutes.Copy !req
512. - You go ahead. I'll meet you there.
- All right.Copy !req
513. Whoa, this could be a big story.
- You! Goodbye.Copy !req
514. - I'm coming with.
- What do you mean?Copy !req
515. - I've got work to do.
- I can help!Copy !req
516. You could get hurt.Copy !req
517. You don't understand.
Danger is my business.Copy !req
518. Get down!Copy !req
519. What's the matter?
Didn't you get to play in the snow...Copy !req
520. when you were a kid?Copy !req
521. I like that, that's good.Copy !req
522. You know, I knew you wouldn't
turn down my little invitation.Copy !req
523. I'm only here long enough to see that
you're put back in jail where you belong.Copy !req
524. Oh, really?Copy !req
525. Then why don't you just come
and get me.Copy !req
526. What's the matter?Copy !req
527. Oh, don't tell me,
you're afraid of a little ice.Copy !req
528. C'est la vie.Copy !req
529. This time, I'm gonna use full power...Copy !req
530. so you don't walk away again.Copy !req
531. Maybe I'm warming up to you after all.Copy !req
532. Those summer colds, they're the worst.Copy !req
533. How'd you do it, Murphy?Copy !req
534. - Do what, sir?
- You iced the ice man, didn't you?Copy !req
535. - You mean, you didn't see...?
- See what, Murph?Copy !req
536. Come on, come on,
I'm a reporter! Let me through!Copy !req
537. Murphy, when the paper gets
ahold of this, you're gonna be a hero.Copy !req
538. - Me?
- Yeah. Come on, tell us.Copy !req
539. How'd you take down Captain Cold?Copy !req
540. Oh. Wasn't easy. There he was, the man
who'd brought Central City to its knees...Copy !req
541. and there I was,
Michael Francis Murphy...Copy !req
542. the cop who put the law
back in "law and order."Copy !req
543. Only one of us was gonna
walk away from that, so...Copy !req
544. Well, suddenly...Copy !req
545. Go on, Murph.Copy !req
546. Ah, nuts. The truth is,
I didn't do anything.Copy !req
547. All I saw was a streak of red
and a blaze of lightning.Copy !req
548. Then it was the Flash.Copy !req
549. You're just gonna have to read
about that in my book. My new book:Copy !req
550. The Scarlet Speedster and Me.Copy !req
551. Somebody pinch me.Copy !req
552. - Murphy saw the Flash for himself.
- I didn't say that.Copy !req
553. - But you just—
- Wait a minute.Copy !req
554. You'll have to read about it in the book.Copy !req
555. In your case,
the comic-book version, okay?Copy !req
556. That's it.Copy !req
557. Lousy heat wave.Copy !req
558. Okay, somebody call the coroner
to pick this guy up before he melts.Copy !req
559. On the other hand, maybe you better call
the Good Humor man. Ha-ha.Copy !req
560. Lunch, anyone?Copy !req
561. Hello again.Copy !req
562. Thai, Greek, Moroccan.Copy !req
563. Sounds great. Let's go.Copy !req
564. You know...Copy !req
565. I wanna thank you.Copy !req
566. Between you and the Flash...Copy !req
567. I've had to take a good hard look
at myself and my career.Copy !req
568. - I quit my job at the Inquisitor.
- You did?Copy !req
569. What are you gonna do?Copy !req
570. You're looking at the newest writer for
the Happy Times Greeting Card Company.Copy !req
571. "A card for every occasion."Copy !req
572. Okay.Copy !req
573. Roses are red
Violets are blueCopy !req
574. If you don't pay our bill
Our company will sueCopy !req
575. Congratulations, I think.Copy !req
576. Well, at least it's honest.Copy !req
577. I figure it'll keep me in cornflakes until
I get a better job from a newspaper.Copy !req
578. I think you made the right decision.Copy !req
579. You know, I finally figured out
who the Flash is.Copy !req
580. - You did?
- Mm-hm.Copy !req
581. I still think he's a cop. Someone you
wouldn't suspect in a million years.Copy !req
582. - Really?
- Mm-hm.Copy !req
583. He's a nice guy. He's friendly,
concerned, works at the crime lab.Copy !req
584. - The crime lab?
- Mm-hm.Copy !req
585. Julio Mendez.Copy !req
586. - Julio?
- Mm-hm.Copy !req
587. Oh, my God, really? Julio?Copy !req
588. The way I see it, he puts on a little
makeup, a little padding under his suit.Copy !req
589. That way he figures
no one'll even suspect.Copy !req
590. Oh, man, that is amazing. I mean,
who would have guessed, Julio?Copy !req
591. Mm-hm. Yeah. Well, his secret's safe
with me. After all, he did save my life.Copy !req
592. Julio. Uh, want some couscous?Copy !req
593. Uh, no, thanks.Copy !req
594. You know, we were
just talking about you.Copy !req
595. - Yeah, what about?
- We were wondering where you've been.Copy !req
596. You know,
I was just out running around.Copy !req
597. Yeah, we thought so.Copy !req
