Line 18:
* [[Clark Kenting]]: Justified: In the first season when Flash is seen from another person's point of view his head appears as a giant red blur and he alters his voice to a substantially different and non-human one (like an electronic voice changer gizmo making it) fairly reasonable Barry is unrecognizable to even his family despite the mask showing half his face. The second season doesn't use the effects as often though implies it is still in place.
* [[Cut Lex Luthor a Check]]: Averted: While comic!Captain Cold is one of the most blatant examples, this version makes it so his cold gun wasn't made by him (it was stolen) and it's noted he's a high school drop out who couldn't possibly build it.
* [[Family Tropes]]: A more subtle focus of season 2.
* [[Healing Factor]]: While The Flash has always had this power to heal faster to some degree this adaptation emphasizes it, allowing Barry to recover from injuries that should cripple or kill a normal person within the span of an episode several times. The biggest use narrative wise is so criminals can get away from The Fastest Man Alive by injuring him (as running away won't work for obvious reasons) to stop the plot from ending in the first five minutes.
* [[I Am Not Left-Handed]]: {{spoiler|Wells is not crippled like he claims}}.
