No, the genius engineer will strike up a conversation with the future Hawkgirl during "The Darkness and the Light," and by time episode 7 rolls around, the pair will tackle their first date.

Kendra Saunders (Ciara Renée) will pull up her small town roots to move to the big city, and the newbie will find work at Jitters. What are the coincidences that Team Flash will find Central City's next hero at their favorite watering hole? Too bad Cisco's upcoming date will be overshadowed by the return of a certain super-intelligent gorilla.

"Grodd returns to Central City and kidnaps Caitlin (Danielle Panabaker). Barry (Grant Gustin) and team race to find her before it's too late," The CW said of "Gorilla Warfare." "Meanwhile, Cisco (Carlos Valdes) plans his first date with the new barista at Jitters, Kendra Saunders (guest star Ciara Renée) and Patty (guest star Shantel VanSanten) begins to suspect Barry is hiding something from her."

Unfortunately, it seems Cisco's burgeoning relationship is destined to fail. Hawkgirl is slated to hold a prominent place in 2016's Legends of Tomorrow, and it remains to be see if the potential couple could sustain a two-series romance.
