In The Flash Season 2 Episode 3, titled "Family of Rogues," the team at S.T.A.R. Labs deals with a new threat in the form of a group of Rogues, a family of criminals who have a personal vendetta against Leonard Snart, aka Captain Cold.
Barry Allen, aka The Flash, also has some personal matters to deal with in this episode as he tries to mend his relationship with his father, Henry Allen. Henry is currently staying with Joe West and his daughter Iris, and Barry is walking on eggshells around him, trying to find ways to connect and make up for lost time.
Meanwhile, Captain Cold's father, Lewis Snart, breaks out of prison and enlists his daughter, Lisa, to help him pull off a heist. Lisa, aka Golden Glider, is hesitant to get involved, but Lewis blackmails her into doing his bidding.
As Barry takes on the Rogues and tries to stop them from completing their heist, he also ends up in the middle of a family feud between the Snarts. It becomes evident that Lewis was abusive to his children, which helps explain why Captain Cold turned to a life of crime.
In the end, while Barry and the team manage to stop the Rogues' plans, they also come to understand the complicated relationship between the Snart family members. Barry also makes some strides in his relationship with his father, who ultimately decides to leave Central City and start fresh elsewhere.
Overall, "Family of Rogues" serves as an action-packed episode that sheds light on the darker side of some of the show's recurring villains while also dealing with the emotional baggage that some of the characters are carrying.
