Synopsis
Barry travels to the 25th Century to learn how Reverse Flash was able to defeat Paradox, but unable to find the info he needs, he instead tracks down Thawne at the one place in time he knows Thawne will be, at Barry's boyhood home on the night Thawne murdered his mother. Meanwhile, Paradox is travelling backwards in time, killing past versions of Barry, thus creating more paradoxes which generates energy that increases Paradox' powers.
