"If you had the strength to end my life, you would have done it in the future," he said. What's more, Savitar suggested that Barry had a chance to kill him in the future. Iris' death could very well prevent Barry from evolving into the hero he was once destined to become, and instead send him down a much darker path. This could be the crucial moment where Barry Allen dies and "Savitar" arrives. By removing that prospect, Barry Allen no longer has the future he thought was set in stone, and thus he loses all hope. When he discovered that 2024 newspaper with the byline from "Iris Allen-West," he built his life around the fact that they would one day be together. Iris is Barry's future she is the one thing he has clung to since Season 1. While Iris' death would certainly cause Barry to suffer, we must also take into consideration the fact that Iris' death could be the one thing to "break" Barry. As such, it's important to Savitar that Barry watch Iris die. "I want so badly to kill you, and I will, but you have to live a little while longer, long enough to see Iris die," he hissed at Barry in the episode. RELATED: The Flash: Abra Kadabra Knows Something About Savitar in New SynopsisĪdditionally, Savitar told Barry that he can't kill him - at least, not yet. That is to say, Savitar has startlingly intimate knowledge of Barry's life, and this exchange further proves that. Seeing as only a handful of people were privy to that conversation, it significantly lowers the chances of Savitar being a satellite or recurring character. Savitar spits back what the other members of Team Flash told Barry when he considered killing Grodd: everyone else looks up to Barry precisely because he doesn't kill. You have everything and deserve none of it!" Here, Savitar drives home the guilt that Barry feels in the wake of the trouble he has caused the people he loves. He's the good guy, the boy Joe raised, the man Iris loves. In one of his statements, Savitar echoes Barry's intensely personal feelings: "Barry Allen doesn't kill. RELATED: Team Flash Loses a Member Due to the Wrath of Savitarīut let's switch tracks and focus more on the details rather than the implications. In fact, the only time at which Savitar refers to Barry by his codename is in this interesting line of dialogue: "I am the future, Flash." The way the line is delivered almost sounds as though Savitar is saying "future Flash," rather than directly addressing Barry.
This implies some intimacy, or at least the fact that there is a point at which Barry ends and Flash begins, that they are two separate entities. Additionally, aside from one key moment, Savitar only refers to Barry by his first name - not as Flash, but as Barry.
For one, Savitar talks about the future a lot he rarely mentions anything else, as if his sole purpose is to remind Barry that Savitar is the future there is nothing beyond him. Of course, there's plenty more to that theory, but - for the sake of brevity - we're going to focus on the events of "The Wrath of Savitar" here, particularly Savitar's last exchange with Barry.
