But the playfulness quickly disappears once Thawne realizes that he might not get to go home, and his despair is very affecting because we know how much he wanted to return to his time. There’s a playfulness and charm in his performance as Wells teases them with knowledge of Cicada and Nora that feels like it was partially inspired by Matt Letscher’s performance as Thawne on Legends of Tomorrow (I loved Cavanagh’s hand motion when he wonders which Barry Allen this is), and Cavanagh and Gustin’s back-and-forth was funny, too. “Well, things just got a lot more complicated, didn’t they?” The ensuing scene was quite possibly my favorite moment in the entire episode because seeing Cavanagh as Thawne is always a blast. So cut to Barry and Nora phasing into the Time Vault, where Thawne-as-Wells has season 2 Barry cuffed to a chair.
