⊱ ──────── {.⋅ ✯ ⋅.} ──────── ⊰

JULIET AND BARRY were doing everything in their power to try and prove that Eddie was innocent. It was proving to be hard to do, considering that there was video evidence that showed Eddie killing two cops, even though it wasn't Eddie — but nobody else but them knew that. Forensic evidence could only do so much against a video.

Barry, however, was taking his chances. He walked briskly up to the interrogation room that Eddie was in, Juliet trailing behind him. They entered to see Eddie sitting at the table with Cecile in front of him.

"The results of the GSR swab," Barry announced, handing Cecile the bag. "Detective Thawne's hands are completely free of lead, barium, and antimony."

"Yet no one can seem to explain how the surveillance video clearly shows Thawne firing his weapon," Cecile argued.

"It only looked like Detective Thawne."

"Mr. Allen, no. Aren't you and Ms. St. James supposed to be the scientists around here?"

Cecile walked past them, heading towards the door. Barry turned and went to say something to her, but Juliet put the back of her hand to his chest. He looked down at her, and she shook her head. There was no use.

Eddie sighed and stood up. "It's pretty hard to blame her. That video is pretty damning."

"No," Barry protested. "No, we just have to convince her."

"Seeing is believing, Barry. They're gonna put me away."

All of the sudden, there was a flash of yellow lightning. Juliet's hair flew up around her, and she blinked, only to see her standing by herself in the room. It was evident what Barry had done. He had taken Eddie so he could escape.

Juliet put her face in her hands. "Oh, dear God."

It was maybe a minute when the flash of yellow lightning that was Barry came back, setting Eddie down in the room again.

"Get me out of here the right way," Eddie stated.

"Oh, hear that?" Juliet asked, turning to her boyfriend and placing her hands on her hips. "He's using his brain."
