Why specify 720p? Because “Fast Lane” is an episode built for motion. The 720p resolution (1280×720) was the gold standard for broadcast HD in 2016 — sharp enough to catch the blur trails of Barry’s running, but not so hyper-defined that the CGI falters.

This episode successfully transitions Harry from an antagonistic forced alliance to a trusted, albeit flawed, member of the team, perfectly setting up the high-stakes journey to the alternate dimension in the following episode. Summary of Key "Fast Lane" Details
