With Damian

He was perched up on a pole and was looking at the tracker.

Paradox says "Tracker says Connors is in the Upper West Side sewers... better move."

Then he super-speed away after jumping down.

Nora had called and said, "Hey-- any luck at Connors' house?"

Paradox says "No-- but tracking him right now..." with a straight voice.

Nora asks "What's wrong?"

Paradox says "Nothing."

Nora says "Meaning something."

Paradox says "Harry was off his game... we almost had Lizard."

Nora sighs and says "I'm sure he was just trying to help."

Paradox says "Sometimes it's just easier to do things myself."

Nora says "That's not fair, Dam-- we're a team. Team Flash."

Paradox says "We just need to find Connors right now-- so we can deal with Kraven."

Nora says "Okay... let me know when you find him." and ends the call.

Paradox then had super-sped all the way to that sewer that Lizard was at.

With Team Flash

Nora had walked in and she was worried immediately.

Caitlin saw that and asked, "What's wrong?"

Nora says "It's Damian. He's... acting different."

Barry turns over and says "What? The suit? It's taking him over."

Caitlin says "I told you the suit's influence was gonna do it."

Barry says "I know. Okay. I'm sorry I didn't listen. But this moment, my son is somewhere where we don't know fighting the Lizard, and we don't know where he is without the tracker." 

Harry says "Barry, it's okay. This is Damian we're talking about. He's probably just stressed and we're overthinking it. That is a possibility, right? Cait?" 

Caitlin sighs and says "Yeah, it is. But... he's acting exactly like Barry did. But then again, I can't rule that out, just yet."

Barry says "Okay, no one treats him as a threat yet, okay? We need to make sure the suit is taking him over. Okay?"

They nod.

Caitlin walked to where she had set up the equipment.

Harry had noticed her walking away and followed her.

He hit the logo on his chest and his Spider-Man suit went back into his ring.

Harry says "Cait, you okay?"

She turns and says "I am. It's just..."

Harry says "You're worried the suit has taken over Damian completely. More than it did Barry."

She nods.

Harry puts a hand on her shoulder and says "It's okay. We'll find out if he has. Then we can make sure he doesn't hurt anyone else, okay?"

Caitlin nods.

Harry saw she looked down put his hand on hers and said, "Hey, no need to look so glum."

Caitlin smiled and they started to lean forward about to kiss each other, and they did.

They looked at lips as they smiled kissing each other.
