Suicide Squad: 25 Biggest Questions Left By The Dumbest DCEU Movie Yet

23. How Did Rick Flag Get To Midway City So Fast?

After vetoing the members of Task Force X (albeit not very thoroughly) Waller and Rick Flag are left twiddling their thumbs waiting for a reason to actually activate them. Fortunately for them (if no one else), one comes about straight away - Enchantress frees her brother which leads to Midway City becoming the centre of a mass mystical attack.

Even more magical than their powers, however, is that Flag's on the scene with the cloud travelling June Moone almost instantaneously. Just minutes ago he was in his hotel near Belle Reve in Louisiana, the next he's halfway across the country in Michigan. How'd he get there so fast? There's no set up and it's treated like we've just had the connection. Maybe he's been taking lessons from Littlefinger?

This is the first of the movies "wait, what" editing f*ck-ups, but it's certainly not the last.
