A Villain called The Thinker is using his Thinking Cap to make himself appear to be in several places at once...the Flash's unite and after several battles the crooks are arrested, Barry and Jay say goodbye to one another and Barry invites Jay to visit his Earth some time. He then vibrates at super-speed and returns to his proper world.
