- Barry Allen: [looking at a black flame] Hey, are you seeing this?
- Chester P. Runk: Holy "Fahrenheit 451."
- Barry Allen: Okay, we need a way to preserve it.
- Chester P. Runk: Maybe we can try to using the micro-catalyzed containment unit?
- Barry Allen: The what?
- Chester P. Runk: Ray Palmer and I designed it together in collaboration with the foundation that they named after my dad. The MCCU preserved the vaporized integrity of gases, but it's back at my workshop.
- Barry Allen: What's it look like?
- Chester P. Runk: It's like an 8-inch vacuum-sealed borosilicate canister with an ionic-fused base and cap.
- Barry Allen: I'll be right back.
- [turns invisible]
- Chester P. Runk: Yeah, yeah, okay. That's gonna take some time to get used to.
- Barry Allen: [reappears holding the canister] Is this it?
- Chester P. Runk: My dad... He never asked me to turn my back on my life here. Oh, no, he would love the life that I've built here. He'd freak... If he saw my workshop. And he'd love that I'm working with an actual superhero. Helping him save the world every day. No, my dad... He'd be proud of his son. And that man that I've become.
- Quincy Runk: I said take my hand.
- Chester P. Runk: No. No, I'm gonna stay here with my friends because they-- they're my real family, and you're not my dad. So why don't you just go to hell!
- Sue Dearbon: All right, I have to jet to to Coast City. We own a string of luxury hotels I have to go inspect.
- Allegra Garcia: Sounds fun.
- Sue Dearbon: No, no. It's boring as hell. Yeah, but if I'm lucky, maybe I'll catch a glimpse of the CCP while I'm there. Oh, you guys haven't heard. Apparently there's been multiple sightings of someone walking through walls. It's popping up on socials as #CoastCityPhantom.
- Allegra Garcia: It sounds like a new meta. I wonder how they got their powers on the West Coast.
- Sue Dearbon: Actually, I have run into quite a few meta around the world. Turns out there's folks all over the place with latent meta genes. All it takes is the right set of circumstances for the powers to manifest. Maybe that's what happened in Coast City?
- Allegra Garcia: Yeah, giving them their first meta.
- Sue Dearbon: Either way, you have to stop running from the fear of the unknown. It's... it's a race you can't win.
