'The Flash' Episode 11 'The Sound and the Fury' Recap

Last Tuesday on "The Flash," Barry had to go head-to-head with a villain who has a history with Wells — the Pied Piper.

"The Sound and the Fury" starts at S.T.A.R. labs with Cisco insisting that they take a group picture. Barry says that a picture of him with the group defeats the whole purpose of having a secret identity. But Wells said that maybe people in the future may want to know how it all began before taking the picture.

Barry and the rest of the team head home, and Wells stands up from his wheelchair and walks around in his home. The phone rings, and a voice on the line tells him that it's time to pay the piper. The glass in Well's living room ceiling shatters, and Wells speeds away, narrowly missing the shards of glass.

The team, Joe, and the rest of the CCPD come to Wells house to investigate. Joe pulls Barry aside and tells him that something is not quite right with Wells story — if he was under the glass ceiling like he said at the time, how is it that he didn't have a single mark on him?

At the lab, Wells tells the team that it was his former protégé, Hartley Rathaway, who was behind the attack. In the flashbacks, it was revealed Rathaway and Wells were good friends. But things started to change when Wells hired Cisco, and Rathaway felt threatened by him, despite many reassurances.

Barry thinks that Rathaway used sonic energy to break the glass. Barry then heads off to stop Rathaway from attacking his parents' company, and Cisco locks him up in the pipeline.

Later, Wells apologizes to Hartley for the damage to his hearing. Knowing that the team is watching them on the cameras, Hartley looks up and addresses Barry, and tells him that Wells will betray him one day.

Then, in a surprising move, Wells tells the team that Rathaway previously warned him that the particle accelerator would explode. This affects Cisco and Caitlin the most because of who they lost in the explosion.

Then Cisco discovers that Rathaway wanted to be captured on purpose. He checks on Hartley and is hurt by the explosion created by his escape. Wells holds a press conference and admits to the public that someone warned him about turning on the accelerator.

"I failed this city," said Wells.

Hartley starts attacking civilians, but in a brilliant move, Wells uses every car on the dam's satellite radio frequency to disarm Rathaway.

Once again, Cisco locks up Rathaway, who tells him that he knows what happened to Ronnie and that he knows how to fix him, but only if Cisco sets him free.

"The Flash" airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on The CW.
