Flash "The Nuclear Man" is actually about the Nuclear Family, while "Fallout" is about an aftermath

I wasn't a big fan of the pop directing this episode, but the writing was very interesting. Andrew Kreisberg & Katherine Walczak. I'm hoping it wasn't Andrew Kreisberg's fault that the episode failed. Not knowing much about Flash, the comic, I'm unsure of what Katherine Walczak's contribution to the character was, albeit, it's good to see a writer from that industry make it big.

In the episode, it is about the Steins and the Allens.
Dr. Stein is part of the FIRESTORM project done in a more kid friendly manner than in the Avengers. (I'm not hear to debate that result, because it's debatable, not right and wrong!) Stein wants to see his wife. In "Fallout," we would see kid friendly conspiracy soldiers: it is not done as well as Steven Spielberg's E.T. or even J.J. Abrams' Super 8, but I'll get to that later.
Ronnie wants to see Caitlin Snow, but is being controlled by a cowardly Dr. Stein who no sells his sadness and insanity.
And last of all, the episode is about Barry Allen, who is trying to find love with perhaps Iris and another woman, trying to balance saving lives with keeping his.

Insert Caitlin fanfiction jokes.
