My source only lent me access to the first 10 pages, but he did inform me of some of the details that happen later in the story. So SPOILER warning.
So, though it appears the character Murmur is a villain, the main antagonist is actually an ape named GRODD! His origin is similar to the recent Rise of the Planet of the Apes film. And if you have seen that movie, you know this could totally work.
He also told me that the object used to kill that CHEF was a sharpened prison bar from Iron Heights Prison, where 'Murmur' was locked up, and escaped from. And now he is taking out some of the guards who worked there when he was "wrongfully convicted".
We also find out that STAR Labs is a Tech Co. based just outside of Central City, and seems to be shrouded in mystery and rumors. Like an area 51 type thing, minus aliens. We also know, this takes place after the event of Man of Steel about 6-8 months; it never really specifies.
Barry gets his abilities very similar to how the character got his on the CW's The Flash; and that STAR Labs' Particle Accelerator malfunctioned. Sending a lightning bolt crashing down on Barry in his lab, with a mixture of chemicals. And that his "uniform" is also from STAR Labs. The name "Flash" are the very last words spoken (By Barry) in the film. And he isn't even in the "uniform" until page 98 of 124 pages. Which is like a 'armor/mesh/Kevlar' material. Barry gets his abilities on page 56.
The gist of the story is Murmur has a following, which lead people to do chaotic thing, and it actually starts a massive riot in Central City. No military shows up because Murmur states that he has stolen "military grade explosives" and placed them throughout the city. So if anyone comes near the cities limits... kaboom!
Meanwhile, Barry and Iris are planning for their first child. This is just kind of a sub-plot to create some time between the 'action' of the film. And p.s., Central City is a lot like Nevada in terms of geography. Their baby boy is born on pg. 122. But it's a fairly quick scene.
Grodd is given intelligent increasing serum stuff, that is not meant to make him that smart. But he does, and becomes aware the "humans" want to "put him down". Then he steels the serum and gives it to other apes. I'm telling you, very similar to Rise of the POTA.
Grodd has no mind reading ability but near the end he does say the words "Grodd no animal!" in his last words. See, Grodd isn't really a 'villain', just misunderstood. Though they do tussle a few times, in the end, Barry actually tries to stop the Police force from killing Grodd. It doesn't work and Grodd dies in Barry's arms. In context I'm told his works. Considering Grodd's whole deal is that he just wants to live in peace with his fellow Apes.
As for the two men who killed Nora, they were petty thugs. Barry's father was a detective, and found evidence on these two criminals (The same guys) that would put them away for 2o years. The thugs found out, and... well you know what happened. The Thugs also make it appear that Barry's father is the one to blame, leaving behind false evidence.
Murmur does indeed have bombs around the city, and I am told it an 'amazing' scene, where Barry has something like 15 seconds to disarm every bomb. Keep in mind there are 8 bombs, all around the entire city. My source compares it a little to the recent scene in X-Men DOFP (The Quicksilver scene). Murmur is captured (By Flash) and sent to a very remote, and secure location at a "specialized" prison, headed by Amanda Wallard.
Barry's father is arrested and convicted to a life sentence. But Barry knows the truth. Barry visits his father often. They talk about Barry's life, how Barry is trying to help convince everyone that he is innocent, and they discuss cases. Usually Barry's father (Tom) gives him advice.
Basically you know the story. Bad guys rise, along with a new hero. Hero saves the day and becomes known as "Flash". There is a mid credit scene written where Barry is working in his lab, when a man in a business suit walks in. Barry is like "I'm working. Who are you?". The man is Bruce Wayne, and appears very "casual". Bruce tells Barry he "knows" and is impressed. Bruce tells that he "has a proposition for him". I.e. the Justice League.
My source tells me it has much more humor (mainly from Barry himself) than MOS, or the Nolan films. But would classify more as an 'Crime-Action-Drama'. He gives the script a 7/10.
And there it is. Now, my source did say he has no idea weather this script is dead, or on reserve, or what. But hey just take it for what it's worth.
Well as I am sure you are aware, this is not an actual screenplay for a WB Flash film. But for those I bamboozled... Got Ya! This is just a little something I did to demonstrate, in a way, an example of a modern day Flash story.

Thanks for reading.
