10. Will Wally Become A More Permanent Feature Now?
The Francine arc came to a close this week, with Joe, Iris, and eventually Wally saying their final goodbyes. Although I didn't care for the character, it has meant some solid work from the oft-underused Candice Patton as Iris, and that's particularly the case in this episode. Now that she is very much Wally's big sister, and he has no one else apart from her and Joe, that's something they can explore a lot more of. I'd wondered how much Wally would be involved with the Wests in Central City, but now that his mother has passed away I'm assuming it's going to be a lot more, and that he'll probably move in with them and become more of a regular on the show. The question remains, though, how he will fit in and become a part of the show as a whole, rather than just separate stories with Joe and Iris? That's until he gets his speed, anyway, but that doesn't look like happening immediately.
