The Flash Season 2: 16 WTF Moments From 'Running To Stand Still'

12. Godfather Shout-Out

The Flash isn€™t afraid to make reference or do shout-outs to the greater DC realm or to general pop culture as a whole, and Running to Stand Still delivered a great line in praise of Francis Ford Coppola€™s legendary Godfather trilogy. Now Earth-1 and Earth-2 have plenty of differences, but the alternative world of Earth-2 still has The Godfather, as confirmed here by Harrison Wells. Speaking to Cisco, Wells attests, €œEvery Earth has The Godfather, Vito.€ Adding further to this, in the background is Jay Garrick giving a reaffirming nod to back up Wells€™ statements.
