‘The Flash’ episode 5 preview: Grant Gustin, cast find new surprises in ‘Plastique’

Anyone ready to see a prominent female meta-human on “The Flash“? While there may not be a new episode of the show next week (blame the midterm elections for that), there is going to be a great episode coming up on November 11 worth watching out for. The title here is “Plastique,” but this character is going to be just the tip of the iceberg for a hopefully great story.

In the synopsis below, you can get a chance to see some of how Plastique arrives on the scene, and also more about Iris’s journey, and how The Flash may actually need to be the one to tell her to stop writing stories all about him:

“After a bomb goes off downtown, the army, led by General Eiling (guest star Clancy Brown), rolls in and takes over the case, much to Joe’s (Jesse Martin) surprise. Suspicious, Joe tells Barry (Grant Gustin) that he and his friends at S.T.A.R. Labs should look into the army’s involvement. Wells (Tom Cavanagh) informs the team that Eiling was experimenting on his men to turn them into super soldiers. Cisco (Carlos Valdes) confirms one of Eiling’s soldiers, Bette Sans Souci (guest star Kelly Frye), was at the bomb site. The Flash tracks her down and realizes that she’s not setting off the bombs, she is a meta-human who can blow things up just by touching them. Meanwhile, when Joe learns Iris is writing about “the streak,” he tells Barry to make her stop. Barry realizes Iris won’t listen to him so he decides to have The Flash pay her a visit.”
