"I'm not really a teleporter," Wanda explained when she and Barry returned to Star Labs. "I don't know what I am. Not really."

"Maybe we can help you find out while we figure out how to get you home," Caitlyn offered.

"Wanda, this is my friend, Dr. Caitlin Snow, bioengineer," Barry said by way of introduction. "Caitlin, this is Wanda, the Scarlet Witch."

"Nice to meet you, Dr. Snow." Wanda nodded.

"Wanda, do you know how you got your abilities?" Caitlin continued.

"Scientist playing with forces they didn't understand. Too much money, not enough ethics." Wanda waved her hand dismissively in the air.

"Yeah, been there, done that, got the t-shirt," Cisco piped from behind a bank of computers. "There's not a big difference between genius and mad science these days."

"And that is Cisco Ramon, our mechanical engineer," Barry said.

"Hey," Cisco greeted with a raised palm.

"Cisco!" Caitlyn hissed in the young man's direction. "We are NOT mad scientists. I wish you'd stop telling people that. Especially people we are trying to help."

"Sorry, Wanda," Cisco said. "Caitlin's right, we're not mad scientists. We're the good guys. We definitely help people."

"That's right," Caitlyn said with an encouraging grin. "Some of us might have evil alter egos that sometimes try to kill our friends and freeze the city, but that definitely doesn't mean we're evil. Everyone has bad days and we can't just lock people up because they made a little mistake."

Wanda looked nervously at the trio. She took an involuntary step back toward the door.

"I...I think this was a mistake." The whites of Wanda's eyes had just the hint of a red glow and a mist of energy had begun to form around her hands.

"Guys…" Barry cautioned his friends. "Cut it out. We can debate good science versus mad science when we don't have a guest."

"Who are you people?" Wanda demanded. "I may be stuck in this dimension or wherever this is but I can still break my way out of your little lair if I need to."

"I'm sorry, Wanda. We really do want to help you. It's just that some people," Barry looked pointedly at Caitlin and Cisco. "have a sense of humor that doesn't translate well in serious situations."

"That I can believe." Wanda unclenched her fists, the glow from her eyes and hands dying down. "There's a few of those on my team, too."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief now that the impending showdown in the lab had been thwarted.

"So, bioengineer, mechanical engineer, definitely not evil" Wanda said, looking from Caitlin to Cisco then back to Barry. "And you, Barry, what kind of not-mad scientist are you?"

"Forensics, crime scene investigation, part-time lab rat for these two. I'm also not bad at quantum physics." Barry looked down and scratched his head.

"Don't forget the Speed Force!" Cisco chimed. "Barry spent a year in the Speed Force."

"And I'm really fast, but you already knew that," Barry added.

"You said you're not a teleporter, but you did teleport here," Caitlin continued her earlier line of questioning. "And whatever you did caused a huge spike in EM readings in the surrounding area. How did you do that?"

"A friend has been helping me explore the limits of my abilities. He's the Sorcerer Supreme," Wanda explained.

"That's why we don't like metas to name themselves," Cisco muttered under his breath.

Caitlin shot him a dirty look.

"It's his title, not his name. His real name is Dr. Strange," Wanda corrected.

"Now that sounds like a mad scientist," Cisco exclaimed gleefully.

Wanda laughed. "It does, doesn't it. He's a real doctor though, a surgeon, or he was until he broke his hands and started learning magic."

"Sounds like an interesting origin story," Cisco mused to himself.

"Origin stories aside," Caitlin interrupted. "We should do some tests and see how—"

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

An alarm sounded from somewhere on the bank of Cisco's computers. A second later, Barry's phone began to ring.

"There's an incident downtown," Cisco said, muting the alarm with a push of a button.

"What's going on, Joe?" Barry spoke into his mobile. "Yeah. We're on it. Do what you can to keep civilians calm. We're on our way."

Barry replaced his phone in an invisible pocket in his suit and fitted his cowl back in place.

"Something is making people act crazy downtown. CCPD suspects it's a meta attack. They need our help." He turned to Wanda. "I'm sorry, Wanda. I promise we'll get you home after we get this issue under wraps."

"Maybe I can help," Wanda offered.

"No offensive," Cisco said. "But I don't think blasting people with energy is going to help."

Caitlin shot Cisco a dirty look but Wanda just laughed.

"You think that's all I can do?" She said with a smirk.

A subtle wave of her fingers made the Star Labs cup of pens float off Cisco's desk. Wanda rotated her hand and the pens and cup circled in a cloud around Cisco's head.

"Woah!" Cisco exclaimed. "You're hired!"
