DC's Legends Of Tomorrow: 10 Big Questions We're Asking After Pilot Part 1

6. How Is Gideon Connected To The One On The Flash?

Another unexpected moment was when Rip Hunter commandeers his spaceship, Waverider, and talks to a rather familiar AI. That would be the head and voice of Gideon, mostly associated with Harrison Wells on Season 1 of The Flash, although it was actually created by Barry Allen in the future and then stolen by Wells/Eobard Thawne. To add another layer of intrigue, Eobard Thawne (the non Tom Cavanagh version) turned up at the end of this week's Flash episode, and with him he had, yep, Gideon. So is Rip Hunter's version a different model, or has he stolen it himself in the future? And how does that tie in with the one we've recently seen on The Flash?
