The Flash Season 3: 9 Big Questions We're Asking After 'Magenta' 

8. Is Jesse Barry's New Sidekick?

After a lot of building towards this in Season 2, Jesse's arrival in Season 3 sees her become Jesse Quick.

The belated manifestation of the impact of the particle accelerator explosion, Jesse is now a speedster, but how is that going to play out?

She helps Barry this week, and seems to be next week too. So is she now Flash's (permanent?) sidekick, like Roy/Thea to Oliver on Arrow? Since it appears she's fairly new, what level are her powers currently at? Could she develop some that Barry doesn't have, as a way of keeping things fresh?
