Quotes 

• Cisco Ramon : I patched into the mall's security system. According to witnesses, the gas attack was in the main elevator in the north wing.

  Barry Allen : [over the intercom]  Which one is the north wing?

  Dr. Harrison Wells : The one with the Big Belly Burger.

  [Cisco stares at him] 

  Dr. Harrison Wells : I eat.

• Cisco Ramon : [as Barry wakes up, recovering from the poison]  The Streak lives.

  Caitlin Snow : You'd be dead if your lung cells didn't regenerate so quickly.

  Barry Allen : My chest feels like that one time I had a cigarette.

  [Caitlin looks at him, dumbfounded] 

  Barry Allen : Yeah, teen me lived for danger.

• Barry Allen : You wanna grab a bite? I'm feeling a little famished.

  Iris West : After the Mongolian barbecue we had before the movie and the extra large popcorn you had at the movie? How are you not fat?

  Barry Allen : I've been jogging.

• Caitlin Snow : He saved so many lives that day, and no one will ever know what he did.

  Barry Allen : I do. He was a hero.

  Caitlin Snow : I didn't want him to be a hero. I wanted him to be my husband.

• Barry Allen : I thought being the fastest man alive would make my life easier, that I could outrun anything. Turns out no one can outrun pain. Life is tragic but it's also precious, and sweet, and extraordinary. And the only way I know to honor my mom's life is to keep running.

• Iris West : [about the Flash]  It's a man, okay? You know I'm really intuitive about this kind of stuff. Someone even posted a picture after being yanked from a car accident. It's a red blur leaving the scene. Here, what do you see?

  Barry Allen : [staring at Eddie's picture on Iris' cell phone]  I see your boyfriend's calling.

• Barry Allen : [voice over]  It doesn't matter if you're the slowest kid in gym class or the fastest man alive. Every one of us is running. Being alive MEANS running - running from something, running to something or... some one - and no matter how fast you are, there are just some things you can't outrun. Some things always manage to catch up to you.

• Barry Allen : [answering cell phone]  Hello.

  Cisco Ramon : Code 237 on Waid Boulevard.

  Barry Allen : Public Indecency?

  Cisco Ramon : Wait, I think I meant a 239.

  Barry Allen : Dog leash violation?

  Caitlin Snow : [cutting in]  Bad man with a gun in a getaway car. Go!

• Barry Allen : Being alive means Running.
