QUOTE:
"Sometimes in the middle of a brawl, I wonder if I'm
going to flame out, like Barry did. Or if the odds'll be against me...
If I'll panic at the wrong time... or my speed won't be enough." —The
Flash |

SUMMARY: In New York City, a man's throat is slit during a
brutal mugging. The Flash finds him bleeding to death in an alley and,
moving at his most astonishing speeds, soon delivers an entire hospital
surgical room to the location. Though his efforts are responsible for
saving the man's life, Wally finds himself troubled by recent events.
The Flash has been accomplishing a lot of good, but the more mundane
concerns of life are beginning to take their toll on him. The scarlet
speedster and the Pied Piper are able to bring down a dangerous gang of
Velocity 9 addicts, but the Flash is in a state of financial crisis and
owes hundreds of thousands of dollars. He's also beginning to realize
that his unexpected interest in the lovely Linda Park may be prove more
worthwhile than his relationship with model Connie Noleski. With so much
on his mind, Wally West visits his psychologist in an effort to talk
through his problems. Unfortunately, when Wally's talking to his
self-centered therapist, nobody's listening.
