(Season 1x7)

Katrina heads into STAR labs, looking for the others, entering the cortex she sees Caitlin and Cisco, but no Barry or Wells. "Let me guess Barry slept in" Katrina says as she hands Caitlin and Cisco a coffee.
"Looks like it" Caitlin tells her.

"Even with super speed he manages to be late" Katrina tells her as Dr.Wells rolls into the room.

"Where's Barry? He's late" Wells says.
"Good Morning to you too, he's late, which is something he likes to do" Katrina tells him.
"Hey, you guys wanna see my signature move?" Cisco jokes.
Just then Barry arrives, "Sorry, guys I got a little held up" he smiles at them, and they all give him a look, "you had to be there" he adds.

"I'm gonna need a moment or two alone with Barry" Wells says to the three of them. Caitlin, and Cisco quickly make their way out of the room, "Ohh you're in trouble" Cisco says to him as he leaves.
"Don't be too hard on him" Katrina says as she walks away.

"You don't think Wells is reaming him for his off hand attempts at helping people" Katrina says to Cisco and Caitlin.
"When he gets a look like that, Barry's probably in trouble" Cisco tells her. Just then her phone starts to vibrate and sees that her and Barry are being beckoned to a scene. She heads back to the room, and looks at Barry and Dr.Wells.

"Sorry, we've got a homicide, Barry we gotta go" she says.
"This is not just about you, remember that Barry" Wells says to him.
"Yeah" Barry says as he then follows Katrina out.
"So what did Wells want, did he ream you out for your heroic antics" Katrina asks as she drives her and Barry to the crime scene.

"Not really, just that we need to work on our speed" he tells her as she pulls them up the scene, and they get out. Grabbing their gear they head to the scene, bending down, Barry lifts the yellow tarp off the body, allowing them to see a charcoaled body. They hear footsteps and look up to see Eddie and Joe headed toward them.

"I hope you both skipped your breakfast" Barry tells them.
"Whoa" Joe says.
"What the hell could do that?" Eddie asks.
"Two thousand four hundred degrees, give or take" Barry tells them as Katrina starts to take pictures.

"This area is filled with combustibles. How come nothing else burned up?" Joe asks them. As Katrina then looks around, and notices something.

"Where are you going?" Joe asks her as she climbs scaffolding that is near by.
"Notice the soot on the ground by where the cement is burnt?" she says as she gets up top.
"Yeah" Joe says.

"That to me is evidence of an arc blast, which happens when high aperage currents travel or arc through the air" she explains as she takes pictures from on top of the scaffolding.

"There's no live wires, there's no utility poles" Joe remarks.
"So how was this guy electrocuted?" Eddie asks, as Katrina finishes up and climbs back down.
"The first thing we need to do is ID him" Joe says to them.
"Yeah" Barry says as he takes more pictures of thebody.

"Yeah" Barry says as he takes more pictures of thebody
