how is wally being worried about his girlfriend who is in the most dangerous position we have ever seen on the show annoying? put yourself in his shoes, you would be worried too. how is that a random suspicion? everytime a double agent is introduced into a story i immediately start to wonder if they are really a triple. wally is not leader material, this is known. wally became the fastest man alive in the comics who's to say he wont here. also, impulse far more competant? really, he's just fast, he hasnt really been shown to do anything yet.

why do so many people want to rush mal into a costume? right know he is an interesting position that makes him stand out, if he just became another cape then he would just blend into the blur that is 3/4 of the team at the minute Yes, Wally is annoying. "I am worried about my girlfriend, therefore, something is wrong with this plan. This plan is wrong because my girlfriend is in a dangerous position. That is why he is annoying. He is viewing this from his perspective only. Selfish and annoying because he has not grown out of it since season 1. Cave blew up? Bad, because I cannot look at the bigger picture. I cannot comprehend sacrificing a piece to save the whole. 

I feel the suspicion is random because I cannot follow Wally's reasoning. Maybe "random" was not the best word. One of the original three sidekicks turning traitor, because of a death and a father? Despite all he has done so far? How long has Wally known Kaldur? Kaldur had a perfect opportunity to obliterate the team in Alienated and in this episode. What could he gain by trying so hard to keep his friends alive? Kaldur's meeting with Nightwing and co. in Depths solidified his loyalty and Wally was right there with him. Kaldur did not kill Lagoon Boy. Kaldur swore to bring him back. Seems like Greg just wanted to throw a curve ball in just for the fun.

"also, impulse far more competant? really, he's just fast, he hasnt really been shown to do anything yet."

Wally is also just fast, too, did you know? Impulse is faster, though--significantly so. Before anyone harps about Wally's scientific genious, Impulse created a time machine--or at least helped create one. Impulse has superlative knowledge, too, and, in a single instance, has displayed (time machine) a higher level of scientific knowledge than Wally has. I am not saying Impulse is smarter. I am saying that Wally's displays of knowledge seem a bit more rudimentary. Going by what we have seen, Impulse outshines Kid Flash. In fact, I cannot even see Wally because of the light. By, the way, I do not care about the comics.

I want Mal to become a hero. What is wrong with that?
