It's not that she's getting cold feet. It's that her husband just told her that he has no human feelings any more. That includes any feelings he had for her.
A bat! That's it! It's an omen.. I'll shall become a bat!

THE CBR COMMUNITY STANDARDS & RULES ~ So... what's your excuse now?
Always great having Snart around in any form but, yeesh, when does this season end? I cannot get over how boring the Thinker storyline is. Please someone stop them from using a season-long villain next year.
Check out my blog, Because Everyone Else Has One, for my regularly updated movie reviews.
It’s unfortunate that the consensus on this season finds it underwhelming. On paper there are a lot of good ideas and some bits of this season were excellent.
I fear the producers will take the wrong lesson from this and go right back to original recipe Flash and another speedster villain.
Just watched the episode. One question: If Flash can drop Goldberg off in China and run back again in a few seconds, why couldn't he just run Fallout to the Argus facility? Instead, they spend hours making and executing the great plan of...driving him there in a truck? It's this kind of ridiculous inconsistency that drives me crazy about the Flash in both his comics and TV identities. Still an entertaining show, but either he can run at a certain speed, or he can't.
Leo is a great grief counselor. He didn't even need to make a Ralph puppet this time! It's horrifying that he lost so many people under his command, but at least it gave him the clarity to advise Barry on dealing with Ralph's death. Ditto for Caitlin and Killer Frost. I would've liked to see Caitlin slowly bonding with KF more and more until they just become one, it's weird that she was an actual separate person.
It's kind of tragic, we've seen three different versions of Laurel Lance and NONE of them end up with Oliver Queen (in the case of Siren-X, he flat out didn't return her feelings). I'd like to see some alternate Earth where they are married.
Yeah, it's like he was saying "Snaht". Or "Snot", I suppose.
Where everything is completely different and...Henry Allen is still arrested for murdering his wife. Nah, I'd like that future Crisis to involve the DCEU as another Earth (which then gets destroyed only to re-emerge/be rebooted as a more entertaining and consistent Earth).
I liked this season a lot. I think the right lesson is not to have a Big Bad always ten steps ahead who keeps winning/biding his time until the finale.
Maybe they didn't want to risk setting Fallout off if Flash trips/is attacked/drops him going that fast.
maybe the thinker is going to get a unpleasant surprise when the elastic personality of Ralph asserts himself. on the other hand it could just mean that instead of devoe dying at team flash hands or his wife's he could be trapped forever in Ralph's body with Ralph constantly keeping him dormant which could be another killer frost like situation. Alternatively I think the thinker in his obsession to bring about the enlightenment may lush even Ralph's body beyond its limits and fry himself to oblivion. Already he shows signs of hubris which may prove fatal to his long term plans.
The Thinker is Johnny Witts—“The Crime-Boss Who Was Always One Step Ahead of Batman!” You’re never going to get ahead of him by being fast or having a plan. He always knows where you’ll be before you do.
The trick is not to do those things you would do. I can see why Barry’s speed is no help to him.
I wish they got that point across earlier in the season, so the stories would be about Team Flash going against their nature and winging it. Ralph could have been a more valuable asset for his ability to think outside the box. And the stories might have subverted expectations by having everyone on the team change their routine.
Wasn’t the point that Team Flash was not to know where ARGUS was taking Fallout? If they knew, that was something DeVoe could figure out. The plan was supposed to have so many levels of secrecy even the Thinker couldn’t calculate. Of course, they were wrong, but that was the plan.
So Barry and Cisco had to have some degree of ignorance.
But maybe when ARGUS picked up Fallout, they took Siren X, too. And she’s being held in a dark site.
I haven’t watched ARROW of late—plan to binge in the summer—but maybe Siren X will be the fall girl for any past Black Siren crimes. E2 Laurel will be allowed to pass as E1 Laurel, while E-X Laurel passes for E2.
But I like the idea of a Quentin Lance series where he slides from Earth to Earth, redeeming each Laurel he finds.
