Kara and Iris followed the Winn into a rehearsal/dressing room."You guys got any more songs you could perform?" Asked Winn.
"Moran said it has to be original, how are we supposed to write an original song?" Said Iris
"I don't know. Um... Winn- I mean Grady, do you have anything original?" Kara asked.
"Well, I've been working on a little something all week." Said Grady, as he walked over to a guitar that was leaning against a piano.

"Wow things are so easy in a musical." Said Kara.
"Let's hope getting out is just as easy. Wait what am I supposed to do? I can't sing." Said Iris.
"Moran doesn't pay you to sing, he pays you to play the piano. Now sit down, there is a sheet of music on there." Said Grady. Iris nodded and sat down at the piano. Winn stared to play a tune on the guitar, by instinct Iris started to play along on the piano.

Kara listen along for a minute, enjoying the slow, sweet tune. Kara started to sing along:

Is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me?
I'm not cut out for all these cynical clones
These hunters with cell phones

Take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die
I don't belong, and my beloved, neither do you
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
I'm setting off, but not without my muse

What should be over burrowed under my skin
In heart-stopping waves of hurt
I've come too far to watch some namedropping sleaze
Tell me what are my words worth

Take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die
I don't belong, and my beloved, neither do you
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
I'm setting off, but not without my muse

I want auroras and sad prose
I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet
'Cause I haven't moved in years
And I want you right here

Kara blinked and her, Iris and Winn were performing up on the stage, in the night club. She continued to sing:

A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground
With no one around to tweet it
While I bathe in cliffside pools
With my calamitous love and insurmountable grief

Take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die
I don't belong, and my beloved, neither do you
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
I'm setting off, but not without my muse
No, not without you

The trio finished playing and the club erupted in applause.

Barry, Cisco, Winn, Alex, John and Mon-el were all stood around the main table in the control room at the DEO.

Alex looked down at her tablet. "Guys we have another problem, we need to figure out a way to wake the girls up soon. Their heart and breathing rates are getting slower and slower, if they continue like this... they only have a couple of hours."

Before anyone could speak, alarms started going off on Winn's computer. Winn rushed over and started typing on it. "Don't worry guys, it's just a bank robbery downtown. Wait, it's our guy! The guy who knock them out!"

Barry looked over at Mon-el. "Let's go."
"Wait, I'm coming with you." Said John.
"John I respect this whole special agent vibe you got going but-" Barry started to say but was interrupted by John smirking and transforming into his Martian self.
"Woah! Awesome!" Said Cisco. Everyone glared at Cisco. "What? He's a cool alien!"

John, Barry and Mon-el arrived at the bank, all dressed in their super suits.The mysterious man walked out of the bank. "Hello everyone! I'm glad you could make it!"
"Surrender now and no one has to get hurt." Said John.

The man laughed. "Catch me if you can." Then he sped off into the distance. Barry ran after him followed closely by John and Mon-el in the air. Barry threw a lighting bolt at the man. However he dodged it and flew off, now followed by Mon-el.

Mon-el sped up; grabbed the collar or the mans jacket and threw him to the ground, knocking him out.
