The Flash - Season 6- Episode 10

The sixth season of The Flash has been a wild ride so far, with the Scarlet Speedster, Barry Allen, facing numerous challenges and adversaries.

The team is trying to find a way to restore the original timeline, but their efforts are hindered by the emergence of a new villain, Hartley (played by Andrew J. West).
