Ep 8:

Barry's pushing himself to be faster, but he's running into the same problem. Harrison asks how fast Barry has ever gone? Barry knows he's not getting faster. Let's figure it out. He leaves to meet Patty. Caitlin wonders what else they can do.

Shipyard. We have a stowaway. With 32 weapons. It's Vandal Savage and he kills all the people on the dock.

Barry saves Cisco and Kendra from Vandal Savage. Called her Priestess Shiara. Vadal's gone.

They take her to Star Labs. Harrison says Shiara is a Coptic name. Barry wants Team Arrow to help. Doesn't think Vandal is magical. They have the experience we don't. Cisco is finally convinced, but how do we know they have time?

Darhk and Ghosts stealing a chemical bomb. Team Arrow interrupts. Damian orders them to kill them.

Felicity forgets she's on an open line, lol.

Team Arrow taking down Ghosts. Damian tries to drain Oliver. Barry speeds him away. "What was THAT?" Damian's expression was priceless.

Thea didn't know we knew the Flash. LOL. Barry's not in town just to give an assist. Need your help to protect someone.

Arrow Cave. Barry's impressed. Notices Oliver doesn't have sleeves. He doesn't get cold. Felicity grabs Barry in a hug. Cisco says this is all wrong. Did you look at the specs I sent? Copper wiring! Felicity ooops. Kendra is introduced. She's pretty wowed. Oliver asks about the help. Barry sketches Savage. Felicity scans it. A photo from 1975. Kendra has never met him before. She just moved to Central City 6 months ago. Oliver says there has to be a connection. Think! This is how I help. You made all of us unsafe, so.. Felicity calms things, and suggests drinks at their place.

Harrison is working on a velocity drug. Caitlin helps. Need an oxygen generator. Sodium chlorate.

Oliver's apartment. Thea and Cisco bickering. Barry and Felicity catch up. She wonders what Oliver's doppelganger is like. Asks if Barry is seeing anyone. Yes. She's amazing. Good. Oven dings. Barry apologizes to Oliver. Oliver apologizes, too. Says reaching out shows maturity. I'm glad you reached out. Oliver says I'm happy now. At peace. Proposes a toast. Wishes it wasn't the dark times that bring us together. Barry steals his drink and finishes the toast. LOL.

Cisco tells Barry that he vibed the first time he kissed Kendra. She was like a bird. I don't want her to know about my powers. She laughs at my jokes and loves movies. I've never felt like this before. Vandal busts in through a window. Barry gets Oliver his bow. Vandal throws knives. Barry picks them off. Oliver fights Savage while the others leave. Thea fires at Savage, and he goes over the railing. I ended it. Oliver says this is why we ask questions! There's no Vandal on the ground, though.

Arrow Cave. Oliver talked to Captain Lance. Cisco tells Kendra he has powers. I had a vision of you. you could fly. Like a bird of some sort. It's all he saw. You with wings. Power goes out. Malcolm! With League assassins. Surprise.....

Caitlin thinks she did it. Jay comes back. To take the speed drug. We need to test it. Jay says the speed force isn't something you can create in a lab. Wells says how did you think you came to be? Science! Jay says find someone else to be your guinea pig. Don't give that serum to Barry.

Malcolm says you're looking for Vandal Savage. he's immortal. Kendra's freaked. Thea says it makes sense. Malcolm says you can't save her now. Kendra needs some air. Cisco follows her. Barry says we'll do whatever it takes to save her whether you think so or not.

Patty spots Harrison.

Cisco catches up with Kendra. She says my whole life just changed and I'm so not ready for that. he gets it. He felt like this, too. Still do. But every day gets a bit more normal. I promise. She thanks him. Hawkman sweeps her away!

Teams are out looking for Kendra.

Hawkman lands on a rooftop. Shiara, it's me. Do you remember? Look at me. You need to wake up. You need to stay by my side to protect you from Vandal Savage. He leaves her there when they get company.

Hawkman wakes up in chains. Where is she? You're putting her in danger and I'm the only one capable of saving her. She's the love of my life. You need to let me go. Shiara. I was Carter Hall, but that's not who we are. We're soulmates. 4000 years. After we die, we reincarnate and find each other again and again. Oliver asks about Savage. He hunts us down. 206 times. His life is tethered to ours. He becomes more powerful every time he kills us. Malcolm says Savage left a few hours ago. He's trying to locate the Staff of Horus. Carter says he'll be unstoppable.

Rooftop. Kendra is supposed to jump. this is how she'll emerge. Barry says why are we listening to this guy. Oliver thinks it makes sense. She gets on the rim. I need to try. Carter nudges her. She falls. Barry catches her. Carter says something is blocking you. Oliver says Barry, can i talk to you for a second? What is going on with you? Let her jump. You want to save her yourself, but she has to have a part in it, too. Barry says the rules keep changing and he feels powerless. Oliver says you've helped Kendra. Now help her get her wings.

Oliver tells Felicity to look for the staff in Central City. Kendra, you're drawn to things that will help you and kill you, so the staff should be there. Felicity finds it at a church. Barry tells Kendra to focus on yourself. Believe and your true self will emerge. Felicity asks do you want to do this? Barry says we'll be fine. Kiss her. LOL. Oliver says we'll be fine and kisses her.

Harrison's dying. Jay arrives. Caitlin offers the serum. It's our only option. He's injected. It works. He gets the bullet.

The chapel. Green Arrow and Flash. They're too late. Vandal has the staff. He activates the staff. They try to take it back.

Kendra says I have to let go. I have to do this.
