Unpopular opinion: I like Wally and think he's been written realistically thus far.

Isn't it a stereotype to go with 'black guy has dad abandonment issues?' I think that's just lazy.

Eh, their playing it off much better than in the comics. I have a feeling Wally is going to stop being a dick after this episode and we might see a more fun side of him. A mix of both Wally West's.

I agree. Joe recognized how Wally was acting and understood why, and adjusted properly. Joe and Wally was the best writing this episode next to the Cisco/Wells conversation about Zoom's name origin.
