"The boss collapsed by the table. This guy," Barry pointed to a different guy, "made it 10 feet away. That guy," He pointed to another guy, "had a chance to move off and fire shots into the window and try to break the glass so he could escape, but they just all stayed in the same place. They should've been affected by the gas at the same time, but-" 

"It's like someone took them out one by one." Barry nodded.

"I feel like we're going to need some back up on this." They all went to S.T.A.R Labs and filled everyone in on it. 

"Fascinating. A meta-human who can manipuate poison gas." Emely nodded.

"Is it just poison gas or can he control all aerated substances." Barry shrugged.

"How is he able to formulate connection? Is it physiological or psycological?" Barry looked at Emely.

"This individual can create a mental nexus using gaseous molecular level? That's ridiculously cool?" Emely turned to Joe.

"They get really excited about this kind of stuff." Joe nodded.

"I can see that. The thing I'm excited about is putting criminals behind bars. Except, Iron Heights isn't exactly equipped to handle meta-humans." Dr. Wells looked at the detective. 

"It's fortunate that that the ones you've encountered are no longer with us." 

"So we're just gunna keep killing the meta-humans we find? That doesn't sound like a good idea." Joe nodded.

"I agree with her. You geniuses are gunna have to come up with a place to hold them." Cisco smiled 

"A meta-human prison. Sweet." Dr. Wells pursed his lips. 

"Until we find a way to take away their powers." 

"There is one place here that might hold them." Cisco looked at Caitlin.

"You can't be serious. We haven't been down there since- It's been cordoned off." The young doctor argued. 

"Cisco is right. It could be modified to act as a make shift prison." Joe was confused.

"What are you guys talking about?" Emely sighed

"The particle accelerator." Emely looked at Caitlin who was zoned out.

"Caitlin. Caitlin did you hear me?" Caitlin noticed Cisco was talking to her.

"We're gunna go down to the particle accelerator thing." Emely could tell that Caitlin was uncomfortable going down there.

"We actually need Caitlin to help us identify the posion gas. If that's okay with her." Caitlin nodded.

"Let's go." The three of them headed to CCPD.

Welcome to CCPD." Barry said to Caitlin when they arrived. 

"So, this is your day job?" Barry nodded. 

"His day job, and my actual job." Caitlin nodded.

"Wow." The three didn't move for a while. 

A guy, criminal, passed by and he looked at Emely, which creeped her out. After him came a woman.

"Lab rats, I need prints off of this gun pronto." Barry nodded.

"Allen! Where the hell is the fiber analysis on the Orloff case?" A man shouted.

"It's upstairs. It's all finished. I can just run and bring it down." The man sighed

"With you, that could be three days." I smiled and the man turned to us.
