I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby.

So am I crazy or was there a hint at the fact that Bart might not be Bart? I mean he acted and talked and behaved like Bart - he was the very perfection of Bart. And the entire episode it seemed like he was merely concerned - he made it seem like Barry going up against Neutron would be the death of Barry. But I think later on, it was because he wanted to do whatever it was he did for neutron without Barry there. And then the last line ‘Guess i might as well get into character now’? It just reminded me of when Inertia pretended to be Bart in the comics. Is it possible that Bart isn’t Bart, but Inertia instead? I mean, they checked his DNA but Inertia was Bart’s clone - so wouldn’t he have the same DNA as well?

Is it just lack of skill or something else??

I assume it might be skill. Wally, in the comics, turned himself into a speedster. So at the most, he’s been a speedster for six or seven years. Bart when he was born - his molecules were so fast that by the age of two, he looked roughly thirteen. They had to put him in a virtual reality just to stabilize his speed. So I think technically, Bart might be faster than anybody else his age. In him, it’s genetics. But for Barry - I think it comes with the ease of having been a speedster for a while. In the comics though, it does make mention that Barry is the fastest man alive. That if he puts his mind to it, he can literally speed up to time to the point where he might be able to see a few seconds into the future. Wally in the comics gets faster with age though - like he can race against time and so forth later on.

When someone claims they’re not the cousin of a gorilla, and that evolution is shit? That’s when my gloves come off and I start citing science at them.
