I don't ever recall it mentioned that Barry and Iris were at that press conference "Wells" gave before he blew up the city. But I could be wrong.
And as convenient as it was for Barry to be drawn away right before "Wells" called out DeVoe, I think Iris was still there. Guess she forgot that someone with the same name they were checking up on was at that press conference.
And we still have no clue as to what he is trying to do exactly. Obviously he is manipulating things for his own goals, but towards what?
He would have been better off seeking help than being some criminal mastermind.
And Barry should really remember to vibrate his face if he is going to do "Flash" things undercover.
And like "Legends", for a super hero show, there is very little super heroing.
