'The Flash' Season 6: Iris and the women of Team Flash are part of a 'Stop Smoking' ad and it's impressive
This article is spoiler-free
Midway through Episode 13 'Grodd Friended Me', 'The Flash' came up with an impressive quick commercial that asks viewers to stop smoking. The 10-second odd advertisement sees Candice Patton's Iris West-Allen, Allegra Garcia (Kayla Compton), Cecile Horton (Danielle Nicolet) and Kamilla Hwang (Victoria Park) in a room where Cecile senses something wrong. The frame switches to a warning of how dangerous smoking can be with thick wading it's way to the room. The last shot is of Allegra looking terrified.
Now, this is a pretty cool ad for a no-smoking campaign, we must say. The ad looks at smoking as evil and something the world needs to fight against, and that's the sort of evil that could plague the world worse than the 'Crisis'. And what better way to use superheroes as the route?
'Grodd Friended Me's official synopsis reads: "'The Flash' Season 6 Episode 13 'Grodd Friended Me': GRODD RETURNS – Feeling overwhelmed with all the changes since Crisis, Barry (Grant Gustin) conducts an experiment that goes awry and puts him directly in Gorilla Grodd's (voiced by David Sobolov) path."
"Expecting the worst, Barry is surprised when Grodd asks for his help. Unfortunately for both The Flash and Grodd, things get worse when another villain appears – Solovar (voiced by Keith David). Meanwhile, Iris (Candice Patton) works with Eva (guest star Efrat Dor) to escape the Mirrorverse. Stefan Pleszczynski directed the episode, written by Kristen Kim and Joshua V Gilbert."
