     After the strange encounter with Barry and Iris' child from the future, Olive tried to focus more on work. Like the fact that Caitlin and Cisco had just told her, Ralph, and Harry that Cecile is a telepath. Olive was a little happy with it, another telepath in the group. 

     "Cecile's a telepath? Well, that's way more important than getting Allen out of prison!" Harry shouted as he motioned to the board. "Not!" 

     "Sick burn, Hare," Ralph said holding his fist out for a fist bump. 

     "Please don't encourage him," Olive said looking at Harry. 

      "As a former prisoner, I can tell you-" 

     "No, that was gorilla prison," Cisco said with a shrug. 

     "Gorilla prison is worse. They throw their scat at you. I can tell you that Allen is sitting in his cell suffering, while this guy, DeVoe, continues his plan unabated," Harry said looking between everyone. 

     "Harry, Cecile filed an appeal last week," Iris told him. 

     "We have no new evidence, so that doesn't matter," Harry said waving her off. 

     "We have satellites on the DeVoe's," Olive chimed in, trying to calm Harry down. 

     "And they haven't made a move in weeks, so that doesn't matter," Harry said  even more angry this time. 

     "Well, Barry's in gen pop, so worst case, he can always phase out, or I can breach him," Cisco said as Caitlin nodded in agreement. 

     "And then he'd be a fugitive, and by the way, Ramon, why do we not have eyes on him in there?" Harry said pointing at TV monitor's. 

     "Hey, it's a pain trying to get into an analog camera from here, no matter how hard I hack," Cisco said as he motioned to the screen in front of him. 

     "Hack," Harry paused, taking a step forward, "harder. We're nowhere. This team is nowhere, and this is the team that got Barry out of a pantemporal speed prison, and we can't spring him from a country jail?" 

     "Harry, we are working just as hard as you, okay?" Iris snapped at him. "And, yes. It kills me to admit it but we are at a roadblock, so Barry is just gonna have to... Hold on." Everyone fell silent as they glanced at Iris. Everyone could equally feel each other's pain in not having Barry there. "I mean I can't even imagine what he's going through."

     Olive sat at monitor as she went through different paper work from Barry's case. She was trying to find any loop holes that the DeVoe's might have made, or any way to make it look like Barry was framed. She hadn't checked security footage yet, but was wondering if the DeVoe's planted fake footage. 

     The sudden ring of a phone made Olive look up. She realized it was Ralph's, but he wasn't in the room. In fact, she was alone. She stood up, reading the caller ID. As she read the unknown number, she pressed answer. 

     "Hello?" 

     "Hi, is this Ralph Dibny's phone?" a woman's voice asked.

     "Uh, yeah. Who's asking?" Olive asked sitting back down. 

     "I'm his landlord. The payment for the previous month on his apartment didn't go through and he either needs to leave by the end of this month, or he will be evicted." Olive's breath hitched in the back of her throat as she looked in each room.
