In The Flash season 5 episode 15, titled "King Shark vs. Gorilla Grodd," the two iconic DC villains face off in an epic battle.
Barry and his team receive a distress signal from ARGUS, alerting them that King Shark has escaped from his confines. Meanwhile, Caitlin and Cisco are working on a device that can help stop Cicada's metahuman-killing dagger. However, they need a component that's only available in ARGUS's vault, where King Shark was being held.
When the team arrives at the ARGUS facility, they discover that Grodd has taken control of King Shark's mind and is using him to carry out his nefarious plans. Grodd reveals that he intends to use the metahuman-killing dagger to destroy all the metahumans, leaving the world a safer place for gorillas.
As Barry battles King Shark, Grodd manipulates their surroundings to gain the upper hand. The Flash's speed and King Shark's strength are no match for Grodd's telekinetic abilities, and it quickly becomes apparent that the team needs a new plan.
Meanwhile, Cisco and Caitlin successfully retrieve the component they need, but they're prevented from leaving when Grodd takes control of ARGUS's security systems. With their friends trapped, Barry and King Shark must find a way to work together to defeat Grodd.

The episode concludes with a heartfelt moment between King Shark and the team.
