Everyone was gathered, facing as Cisco was pacing madly. "She's good. She's great. I mean, Gypsy is a legend on my Earth," HR said and Mon gave him a look, then looked back at Cisco.

"So why, exactly, did you agree to fight her?" Mon asked.

"I don't know," Cisco said.

"You did what any of us would have done," Barry said.

"I might not have done it, just being honest," HR said.

"Okay, all right. Lay it out for me. What are my chances here, scale of one to ten?" Cisco asked.

"She's gonna kill you," HR said.

"You're dead," Mon said.

"It's a pretty solid one, mate," Julian said.

"Just, so dead. As dead as Krypton and Daxam," Mon said and the rest of them gave them looks.

"You have the same powers Gypsy does, right? I mean, she's not doing anything you can't do," Kara said.

"Much better...look, I mean, she's doing it just much better," HR said.

"You can do this, okay? You just need a little practice and a little confidence. And we're all gonna help you with that, right?" Kara said.

"Yes," Barry said.

"Uh, sure, sure, yeah," Julian said.

"Yes," Mon said hesitantly.

"Yeah," Caitlin said.

"Hey," Barry said and Cisco looked at him. "I believe in you, all right? You can beat her."

Cisco nodded as Barry and Kara walked off. "Listen, I have some ideas for a training regimen I can set up in here. Caitlin, why don't you get the medical bay prepared in the meantime?" Julian asked and Cisco gave him a look.

"What? Well, why does...why does she need to set up the...the medical bay?" Cisco asked nervously and Julian hesitated.

"For when you...beat her, when you beat her, she's gonna...she's gonna need medical attention. 'Cause you will beat her, I have every faith that you're going to beat her," Julian said slowly, before he playfully pushed Mon, wanting him to continue.

"Oh, yes. You...can do this. We believe in you, buddy," Mon said, but deeply cringed to himself. Caitlin then walked up to the two boys, dragging them away from Cisco and HR.

"We need to work on your interpersonal skills," Caitlin told Julian.

"I was really trying," Julian said.

Once gone, Cisco looked at HR. "Has anyone ever beat her?" He asked.

"Yeah," HR said but Cisco gave him a look. "No."

"Oh, okay. Well, I've officially reached a nice, comfortable level of just straight-up panic," Cisco said as he walked up to the platform behind them and sat down on the steps.

"I mean, you don't even like me," HR said as he walked up to him, leaning against the stair handle. "Why would you risk your life for me?"

"Well, you heard Barry. It's what we do around here," Cisco said.

"Come on. Why?" HR asked and Cisco stared at him intensely.

"You're not like the other Wellses," Cisco said.

"Yeah, so you keep reminding me," HR said.

"No, I mean, those two, they were geniuses. We depended on them. But with you, the roles are reversed. You depend on us. Harrison Wells was always there for me, so I guess in some weird way, I just...I want to be there for Harrison Wells," Cisco said.
