Unknown Earth

Cisco dropped from a breach, and landed on the ground, but right below him was boiling hot lava. But then Gypsy dropped from the breach, and landed right on top of him. "Well, this is hot," Gypsy said.

"I think you're flirting with me to distract me 'cause you're afraid," Cisco said but Gypsy laughed.

"My collection record is flawless. In these trials, I am undefeated," Gypsy said but Cisco also laughed.

"Oh, please. Everybody's got a weakness. Even you," Cisco said.

A breach opened up and Cisco was pushed out from it, Gypsy following. "Says the man afraid of showing everyone how powerful he can be. You and I resonate on a similar frequency. I can feel it. Yet you allow your fear and insecurity to hold you back. That's why you're gonna lose," Gypsy said. She then opened up a breach and jumped into it. Cisco quickly looked behind him to see the breach opened up, and when Gypsy jumped out, Cisco blasted her, sending her to the ground.

"Does this look like holding back to you?" Cisco asked as she looked up at him confused while his blast continued to hold her down. "I could do this all night."

"How did you-" Gypsy started after Cisco stopped.

"You might want to work on your balance next time, girl. Admit it, I won," Cisco said.

Kara, Barry, Julian and Caitlin cheered as they saw Cisco blast Gypsy down. "Yes! He won," Barry said before he and Kara high-fived.

"Yeah, he did," Kara said before they also high-fived Caitlin and Julian.

"Yes!" Caitlin exclaimed.

"She must have been having an off day," Julian said and they all stopped, to give him a look. "What?!"

"Wow," Barry muttered.

"By the laws of Earth-19," Gypsy said as she got to her knees. "the prisoner is yours for the taking, as is my life."

"Oh, no, no, no, no. We don't roll like that around here," Cisco said before he handed out his hand for her to take. "Come on."

He then pulled her up to her feet and she eyed him heavily. "In all the multiverse, I have...never...met anyone like you, Cisco," Gypsy said.

"Please, call me Vibe. Or...or you can call me Cisco. That's also allowed. I'm just a regular guy. Just a regular...single guy," Cisco said and Gypsy mustered up a smile.

As Caitlin was checking up on Cisco, Barry, Kara, HR and Julian faced Gypsy who was getting her bags ready...full of coffee. "So what happens now? Go back to your Earth? Tell all your superiors that you were bested in battle, all the charges against H.R. are dropped?" Barry asked as Caitlin and Cisco walked out from the med bay.

"No. I tell them I killed him," Gypsy said.

"Wait, what?" HR asked.

"If I return empty-handed, they'll know I failed. And I never fail. Until today," Gypsy said.

"Okay, but if you tell them that you killed me, then I-" HR started.

"You will never go back to Earth-19, ever. Do we have a deal?" Gypsy asked.

"Yeah. I guess we have a deal. I don't really have anything to go home for," HR said.

"You'll always have a home here, H.R," Caitlin said and HR smiled.

Then Cisco walked up to Gypsy as she picked up her bags of coffee.

"Listen, I know there's no coffee on your Earth 'cause of the whole Blight thing or whatever, but this...this is just an absurd amount of coffee you're bringing back to your Earth. That can't be legal," Cisco said.

"I mean, I won't tell if you won't," Gypsy said.

"You know, for someone so fixated on enforcing the law, you sure seem oddly at ease about breaking it," Cisco said.

"Well, I guess some laws are worth breaking for the right person," Gypsy said.

"Hmm. So this goodbye then?" Cisco asked.

"For now," Gypsy said before she started to lean in to kiss him, but right when their lips would touch, she created a breach, and went into it.

"Wow. What an exit," Cisco said.

Barry and Kara's Apartment

Iris was pacing around while Barry and Kara, who were sitting on the couch, faced Mon-El, who was sitting in a chair, while he read Iris's article. "Okay, you know, for a very fast guy, you are the slowest reader," Iris said, finally just facing him.

"Hey this is your big article. I'm not gonna rush through it," Mon said and Iris sighed annoyed. "I'm just kidding. I read it five times already," he said and Iris took the tablet from him in annoyance.

"You sure sold the hell out of Kid Flash as Central City's next super savior. I'm sure Wally's loving that," Kara said.

"Well, I did promise him the front page," Iris said before she faced everyone. "But what do you guys think? Do you think it'll make any difference?"

"Kid Flash already changed one thing that we saw in the future," Barry said and everyone eyed him.

"I think she meant the article," Mon said.

"What?" Barry asked.

"I think you should be really proud," Mon said.

"Yeah?" Iris asked.

"Yeah," Mon said.

"It's the beginning of...an amazing journalistic legacy," Kara said.

"Really?" Iris asked.

"Mm-hmm," Kara hummed.

"How amazing? Like Pulitzer amazing?" Iris asked as she sat next to Kara.

"Time will tell," Kara said but then she looked back at Barry, who was still in deep thought.

"Hey," Kara said and Barry blinked.

"You done being in Kara-La-La-Land," Mon said and Kara gave Mon a look while Barry snickered.

"Sorry," Barry said before he pulled Kara close, then looked at Iris. "Do you know what I realized? Savitar, he said that I trapped him wherever he is; you know what that means? Means I beat him."

Iris smiled. "And we're gonna do it again," Mon said and Iris looked at him. "I promise. So don't worry. The Flash, Supergirl and Mon-El of Daxam are gonna save you."

Iris smiled at him deeply. "My hero," she said and Mon smiled back.
