Anna smiled as she cuddled more into Caitlin. "I don't wanna get up." Anna sighed.

"We have to." Caitlin tried to peel away.

"5 minutes." Anna pulled her back.

"Fine. Only 5." Caitlin said as Anna peppered kisses on her neck.

"If we're late, I'm blaming this on you."

"Yeah, and I'll say I needed extra sleep because you kept me up all night, and they'll say, ew." Anna sighed.

"That was very dirty of you, Ms. Allen."

"Maybe it was Ms. Snow."




Caitlin and Anna entered the Cortex, about an hour late. "Why is the scariest person I've ever seen roaming our halls?"

"Cisco." Barry and Joe said at the same time.

"Oh. Okay, so, I've got the coroner's report for the death of the bus driver, but it doesn't seem like there's any signs of foul play." Iris explained.

"Aside from him being the one guy that could have told us who else was on that bus."

"They logged his personal effects, let's see... Credit cards, cash, receipts, um..." Iris slid through.

"Wait, go back." Barry questioned.

"Ralph Dibny."

"I'll be damned."

"Who is Ralph Dibny?" Anna asked.

"He used to be a cop."

"Dirty cop. He got kicked off the force." Barry addded.

"For what?"

"It's a long story." Joe explained.

"That's him." Barry pointed to a man on the screen wearing a police uniform.

"Oh. He's handsome in a square-jawed Oliver Queen kind of way." Iris said.

"For real?" Barry asked in irritation.

"Babe, you know I've only got eyes for you."

"The I.O.U. is dated the same day that I came out of the Speed Force." Barry noted.

"You think Dibny was on the bus that day? Maybe he's a meta-human now?" Caitlin asked.

"Let's pay him a visit." Barry exited the room after Iris muttered word to him.

Iris turned back to Caitlin and Anna. "Oliver Queen is hot."

"Amen, hallelujah." Caitlin whispered back.

"This is why I'm gay." Anna muttered.














"Yeah, yeah, well, you're welcome." Barry said after Iris ran in. Dibny's legs had been streched, more than the average.

"What happened to me?"

"Breathe, okay?"

"I am breathing."

"Okay. Clearly this guy is a bus meta." Iris insisted.

"This is interesting. The dark matter has polymerized Dibny's cells."

"What the hell is dark matter, and why is it in my cells?" Dibny yelled.

"You're saying the walls of every cell in his body have elasticized?"

"I'm saying they formed an unbreakable bond at the atomic level. Now you can stretch these cells and stretch these cells." Wells explained.

"Like Silly Putty." Caitlin suggested.
