Captain Joe West / Captain Singh Knows Barry's Secret Identity The Flash 5x22

[@VenomSkywalker.]

I feel like he knew, when Barry was in the court room and he said “I know he shows up late, but I don’t question him, because he always delivers the work properly.

[@ytsn_THE_OG]

@@tyewallace6863 I feel like he figured it out pretty early, like S3 I believe

[@AurianWarriorOfDarkness]

Ever since the flash showed up singh had become a believer also barry saved singh gay partner from a fire but my question is when and how long did he know sorta like a male Cat grant

[@sarathomas8499]

I think Singh knew since the beginning of Season 4 or the end of Season 3 and didn't let anybody know. That is why he protected Barry so much during DeVoe and didn't fire him and called him "one of the good one's" during the trial. SHOOK

[@ytsn_THE_OG]

Same here. I was thinking it may actually have been as early as season 3. Barry has amnesia in court, which confirmed his already growing suspicion. Like, every time Flash was nowhere to be seen, Barry wasn't either, and always returned around the same time. He's a detective and was already on to him, which made him an even bigger supporter of The Flash.

[@Sphrocket]

Nah Singh knew since season 1. If you go back to S1 Ep17 The Trickster, Joe is on the phone with Barry and I believe Singh believed he was talking to the flash and he said Barry's name when the Tricksters were taking Barry's dad. Now to explain my little theory, Barry was not present when Singh ordered the precinct to search for the bomb. Barry wouldn't be searching the bomb regardless since he is not a first responder, so why would Barry be searching for the bomb and how would have he found it so fast? Also Singh almost surprised when he said Barry's name over the phone instead of him saying "Flash he took a prisoner as a hostage". For all I know I could be wrong but it seems too obvious to ruled out as a possibility.

[@Yuki-qs5mt]

Jesus loves you 🙏

[@oSmokeyy]

​@@Sphrocket this is almost undeniable; especially considering CSI is almost never there within the first few hours of a crime scene, let alone should be NOWHERE to be seen when it comes to a bomb threat. so even if he didn't KNOW here, it definitely started with this.

[@Mizraab2912]

He is a very good actorm

[@nicktroisi6347]

Captain Singh always liked Barry, I don’t think he was always angry at him because he didn’t like him he just had a very stressful job and Barry even asked if he was ok multiple times, plus Singh’s fiancé said he always spoke so highly about him. And on Barry’s trial he said he hired him because he wanted to help and focus more on the victims’ family’s and get justice rather than just catching the bad guy and getting all the glory.

[@Noaher256]

Seems like lazy writing. No time to explain

[@DaRealCheezy]

[@badatvideogames5832]

@@capeto08 I mean when he's been the flash for 5 years and he started being late around when flash started its pretty self explanatory, plus like he said he's a detective too

[@capeto08]

@@badatvideogames5832 I think the lateness never really stop. He just become most absent. When i say is lazy writing is that they are telling not showing. I mean, Eddie was a detective also and he was with barry side by side and he didnt notice. At least if they left some hints or scenes and then go backward and conect the dotes. But it was easier to states facts with no pay off whatsoever

[@duckyfam9012]

the part when wally insults barry and then finds out he’s the flash after is better

I just knew in my gut, that Singh had known for awhile, and this scene showed that perfectly. Singh is a real one

[@TestvinayakBeta]

Can we have people like singh in our lives?

[@wafflingmean4477]

The look on Joe's face implies he's not even that surprised Singh figured it out. He's more like "Ah... shit. Well Singh was probably going to figure it out eventually."

[@hitekx4065]

I know that in S1 Flash vs Arrow was a thing, but I think it's really cool that at a time when superheroes being bad was a thing and Civil War and BVS was being hyped up, the writers of the Flash had Captain Singh say things like "Hey maybe the Flash can help." It was really refreshing after constantly being shown that law enforcement was after superheroes. Captain Singh was always a great character.

Honestly- now currently rewatching, he totally knew in Season 3 when Barry quit his job, then came back… he never started the paperwork and in that same season, Barry violated rules. He was late, leaving and showing back up after a long periods of time I mean he let Barry off for all that- he definitely knew

[@juliakelly8405]

I just love Barry in the background at 1:23 just freaking out 😂

[@ragequitter567]

David actually suspected Barry is the Flash since Season 1, especially since Barry started coming on time and finishing his work on time, but it was in Season 4 at the courtroom where he finally confirms that Barry is the Flash, but did not tell that to Barry until the ending of Season 5, i.e this scene.

[@hy8399]

In season 3, he didn’t care about Julian’s complaints about Barry and let him off the hook because he knew then too

[@ragequitter567]

@@hy8399 However I still don't understand why he would cuff Barry when the Thinker faked his own death via Brainstorm without any hesitation if he already knew that Barry was the Flash at that time in Season 4 because if he already knew he probably wouldn't have arrested him immediately on spot just like Henry without even listening to their POV first.

[@hmmmmm5600]

@@ragequitter567 it’s arrest first then the court decides if he’s innocent or not. Plus if he didn’t cuff him, it would make both of them suspicious on why he’s innocent without trial. It would either make Singh look like a dirty cop or make others look into why Barry would go free with ease. It’s not like they would just interview Barry on the spot with the knife a foot away from him in a crime scene where they don’t want to tamper with anything.

[@hmmmmm5600]

@@ragequitter567 also Barry says he has to go somewhere in the middle of the court case and then literally flash fights a meta during that time. It would be easy for a detective like Singh to know what’s going on. That’s why he seemed emotional during his speech that the flash died even though no one told him that or confirmed it. He was talking as if it was someone he knew personally and said he’s dead because he knows Barry is gonna serve a life sentence.

In season 1 episode 17, at 22:28, Joe is on a call with Barry when Trickster had just escaped prison. He took a prisoner and Joe said, “He took your dad” (something like that) and Singh was right there, so he knew since season 1 guaranteed

[@danielle8587]

[@ytsn_THE_OG]

Two Captains in a row to figure it out. One just stayed quiet and kept his plausible deniability, while Kramer just had to know, and put pressure on Barry to reveal his identity, which she picked up on.

[@lisamurphy7028]

He definitely knew since season Four. And had probably suspected it since the Dominator invasion. But actually Singh wasn't around much in season 3 to reveal to the audience that he knew. You can kind of see a light-bulb going off in his head during Barry's trial. But he was like "If Barry doesn't want me to know, I'll play it cool."

[@MangaSlayer102]

“Oh come on, Barry I’m a detective too.” Yeah I mean to be fair he works in a place full of law enforcement, bound to be someone to figure it out.

If you go back and watch season 1 singh then. In the episode where they show hannibal bates for the first time he says at the end when he says fortunately have the flash. He looks back at barry when he says this.

I mean singh probably knew cause every time barry was gone the flash appears, and barry being in prison and the flash not appearing before barry was released can't be a coincidence

Now if we compare this beautiful moment with the scene of Kramer telling Barry she knows, this one stands out as being far better because of the way it was played off and the natural charisma that Singh had in the scene.
