— Flash

Later, he was called up by Harley who asked him to get to Doctor Psycho's recording studio. She claimed she wanted his help pranking Psycho, saying she immediately thought of him due to being the "lord of hijinks". He began excitedly flash around the room, asking what the plan was to which Harley asked he turned back time five minutes, forcing Psycho to do the adds for his show all over again (which he would hate according to Harley). Laughing, Flash took out his cosmic treadmill and Harley jumped on his back as they ran back five minutes. Back to before Harley knocked out Psycho, he pointed to Flash asking "who invited the virgin?" although Flash only laughed at his insults before being urged out of the room by Harley. When he tried to ask that they all hung out, Harley lost her patience and kicked him between the legs causing Flash to retreat.
