Episode 5 of Season 4 of
The Flash brings us Hartley Sawyer's second outing as Ralph Dibny and the first time the character is a full-fledged member of "Team Flash."
"Girls Night Out" features the bachelor and bachelorette parties of Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) and Iris West (Candice Patton). Cisco (Carlos Valdes) had planned a night of brandy with home movies and a nice steak dinner for Barry, but Ralph convinces the guys to go to the Golden Booty, a strip club. Cisco presents Barry with a concoction that'll get him nicely buzzed, but he might have overshot its potency.
Iris' party is interrupted by a henchman for Amunet Black (Katee Sackoff), which causes Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker) to change into her evil alter-ego of Killer Frost. Iris, Caitlin and Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards) set out to put a stop to Amunet trafficking the discharge of a captive metahuman. (It's less gross than it sounds. But still gross.)
The episode was fun and had some nice character moments for what's going on with Caitlin this season. Ralph gets a few fun scenes, still getting over being sleazy, though. Character development, you're coming. However, I'm going to have to join the fans reacting negatively to the girls cheering "hashtag feminism" just because they're doing things without the guys.
Next week teases the debut of Ralph's first superhero costume which looks a little like his original getup from
The Flash #112, but way more bland. Hope it's a prototype...
