Trivia: The back pack that Iris gives to Barry has two references - the bag has the colors of the Flash in the comics, red and yellow, and inside there is a comic book of the space ghost, another super hero character.

Tricksters - S1-E17

Trivia: When Jesse learns a new Trickster is copycatting him, he tells Barry and Joe that when he terrorized Central City, days without casualties were as rare as the Chicago Cubs winning the pennant. A few months after the episode aired, the Cubs made the playoffs, but lost the pennant in a four-game sweep; they won the pennant the following year and went on to win the World Series for the first time since 1908.
