New 'Flash' suit upgrades
The trailer starts with Cisco Ramon showing off the new upgrades to Barry's Flash suit, which will help him be a more effective crime fighter. The new suit will feature nano liquid circuitry, self-repairing armor, full spectrum scanning and much more, It is a nod to Peter Parker's suit in "Spider-Man: Homecoming."

"You'll see a new power at some point this season," Helbing told Comic Book Resources. "It's pretty cool."
Prison trial and the Tornado Twin's teased
Ever since Barry's return from the Speed Force in the season 4 premiere, comic book fans have been wondering if the mysterious messages may have something to do with his future actions this season and beyond.
According to Screenrant, the first message he muttered, "Your honor I'm innocent..I didn't kill anyone," teased the show's version of "Trial of The Flash" storyline. In the comics, Barry was sentenced to prison after he killed Eobard Thawne a.k.a. Reverse-Flash. Audiences saw a small glimpse of that during the season 1 finale.
The second message, "We're gonna need more diapers," refers to Iris and Barry's future children, Don and Dawn Allen. They inherited their father's super speed and became the crime-fighting duo, The Tornado Twins.
Co-producer Andrew Kreisberg confirmed that Barry and Iris will get married this season, but their wedding day will be ruined by the arrival of evil Nazis from Earth X in the next "Arrowverse" crossover.
