It's back! The Flash is finally returning to our TVs after an interminable summer hiatus. But although you may think you're ready for "Flashpoint," a.k.a. the season three premiere in which everything in Central City is completely different now that Barry (Grant Gustin) has gone back in time to save his mother, you're probably not.
Case in point: This sneak peek at the Flashpoint version of Cisco Ramon (Carlos Valdes), who is verrrrry different than the character we know and love from the first two seasons of the CW hit.
E! News has an exclusive clip that shows what Cisco's up to in the season premiere, and it's not what we'd expect from the Cisco we've spent time with for two seasons. This Flashpoint Cisco is a tech billionaire playboy who wears suits to the office and wants nothing to do with Team Flash—except maybe everyone's more intertwined than previously thought.
In the Flashpoint world, Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale) is the Flash (well, "Kid Flash," as Barry refers to him), Iris (Candice Patton) is the number one (and only) member of Team Flash, and Cisco—well, Cisco's still involved too. He made Kid Flash's suit.
"I make you a friction proof suit so your clothes don't explode at Mach 2 and you leave me out of your brother-sister war on crime," Cisco laments when Iris, Wally and Barry approach him. "That was the deal!"
Also not in the deal? Bringing a random stranger—that would be Barry—into the loop. "Oh, that reminds me, who the hell is this?!"
Watch the video above for Flashpoint Cisco and Barry's first meeting, and tune into The Flash Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on The CW.
