• [first lines] 

  Ralph Dibny : Good old CCTA, bus number 405, where I was gifted with pretty much the best powers ever. If it wasn't for this old girl, I'd still have to leave the couch when I need to use the bathroom, you know, because I can...

  Barry Allen : Yes, I know.

• Ralph Dibny : I got something. My Big Belly punch card. I've only five away from a free kids meal, if I live long enough to use it.

  Barry Allen : Man, don't even joke like that. We're gonna get DeVoe, throw him in The Pipeline, long before he gets to you.

  Ralph Dibny : Right. If that doesn't work, we'll just, uh, take him out the other way.

  Barry Allen : What other way?

  Ralph Dibny : Eh, put him down with a shovel, give him his harp and wings, send him to visit Grandma Thinker in the sky.

  Barry Allen : Ralph, you think we're gonna kill DeVoe?

  Ralph Dibny : The way that you're saying that makes me think I'm supposed to say no.

  Barry Allen : Okay, look... I've taught you a lot about being a hero, right? You ready for what's probably the most important lesson? We never have to kill. For people with our abilities, there's just always another way. You understand?

  Ralph Dibny : Han, you complete me.

• Barry Allen : I know what killing DeVoe would do to you. You would be throwing away everything you've done, to become a better man, to become a hero. You gotta realize that.

  Ralph Dibny : You... are a moron.

  Barry Allen : Ralph...

  Ralph Dibny : I am not afraid of DeVoe and what he might do to me. I am afraid of what he might do to you... and Iris and Caitlin and Cisco, Joe, Harry, Cecile. DeVoe has taken out everyone who's gotten in his way, and Team Flash... they will always be in his way.

  Barry Allen : This was never about protecting yourself.

  Ralph Dibny : I know that killing DeVoe would mean throwing away everything I've done to become a hero... But aside from my mom, this team is the only family that I have ever had, and I would throw myself into a furnace to keep them safe. DeVoe can't have them. They are mine.

  Barry Allen : What about what we want? You may not care about losing who you've become, but we do. We like hero Ralph. Please don't take him away from us.

• Iris West-Allen : Well, it could've gone worse.

  Barry Allen : Yeah, all things considered, we got lucky.

  Ralph Dibny : Lucky? Are you two serious? Am I the only one who's paying attention here?

  Iris West-Allen : Ralph, the mission was successful. Caitlin's okay, and Edwin agreed to stay in The Pipeline.

  Barry Allen : Edwin will be safe in there.

  Ralph Dibny : Safe? Because DeVoe's never successfully attacked metas in a maximum security facility before. Oh, wait, he did exactly that.

  Barry Allen : Watch it, Ralph.

  Ralph Dibny : I have been watching. Watching DeVoe ahead of us at every turn, watching Caitlin get skewered, watching metas drop like flies, one by one, because we can't save them. And why? Because we won't make the tough call and end DeVoe when we get the chance.

  Barry Allen : Look, I'm not doing this again.

  Iris West-Allen : Okay, Ralph, I get where you're coming from, but that is not the tough call, that is the wrong one.

  Ralph Dibny : Oh, Mr. and Mrs. S.T.A.R. Labs agree. I swear if I was running this team...

  Barry Allen : But you're not.

  Iris West-Allen : Okay, all right. That's enough. We don't have time for this, okay? We need to focus and stick to the game plan. Find DeVoe, hit him with the scepter, and put him in The Pipeline. No one has to die.

  Ralph Dibny : Huh... same plan again. And you wonder why he's always ahead of us.

• Ralph Dibny : I heard all the commotion, and I thought, "If DeVoe was here, where would he be going?"

  Izzy Bowin : Hmm. A simple deduction for a simple man. Though I assure you, you are no threat for an intellect of my magnitude.

  Ralph Dibny : Please. Everyone I fight is smarter than me, and no bad guy has beaten me yet.

  Izzy Bowin : [brings out a toy-sized dinosaur skeleton]  Well, I'm afraid an old friend requests a rematch.

  Ralph Dibny : I really hate sequels.

• Ralph Dibny : Warning: Fists in Pipeline are longer than they appear.

  [enlarges his fist and obliterates the dinosaur in one punch] 

• Barry Allen : Ralph! Just fight it, all right? Fight it! I'll save you.

  Ralph Dibny : You already did, Barry.
