The Flash - Season 6, Episode 05: Kiss Kiss Breach Breach
Trailer
Season 6 follows new events, with Crisis only a few weeks away. Now, Barry tries to set up a team member for Team Flash for life where he tries to catch a hideous world, and Ralph reveals the secret of the family that will change the course of events. Meanwhile, Barry and Iris are still trying to face their fate in order to deal with the tragic loss of their daughter Nora.
If there was any truth to the rumor he was leaving, it's great that he came back to sink his teeth into some real acting on par with what Valdes was tackling in Season 1. The show, and TV as a whole, is richer for it.
"Kiss Kiss Breach Breach" was a pretty okay episode. I loved that Valdes had an opportunity to shine even though I wished there was a bit more to the story. I just didn't feel Gypsy's off-screen death was a particularly strong inciting inciden
Given just how strong the season's first four installments are, it feels a bit like a cop-out to say that The Flash Season 6 Episode 5, "Kiss Kiss Breach Breach," is the weakest episode of the season to date.
Cisco and Kamilla, but mostly Cisco carries this episode and proves, when written well, he can be the focal point of the show, at least for small periods.
This twist does little to add any real suspense to the episode. It's more an excuse for Joe to dispense some of his trademark fatherly wisdom and delay the march towards Crisis.
When Ralph shows up in the nick of time, Joe's faith is rewarded. My faith in not being spoon-fed a lesson by The Flash, however, has been severely tested.
