To say that Bruce doesn't entirely trust this other Barry Allen is an understatement. If anything, he trusts the total strangers that are here more -- especially... especially the three that had been there that horrible day in Crime Alley. And it goes without saying that he trusts Nightwing most of all.

But he swallows it down as best as he can for now. If this version of Barry genuinely is still on the side of angels, perhaps he'll be able to use insight into his own psychology to influence the other Barry somehow.

"As far as we can tell, Allen signed on due the massive loss of life in Metropolis. The prospect of a world where crime was tightly controlled enough that another disaster like that could never reoccur proved too tempting, especially after Jordan joined the Regime. That said, we have seen signs of...hesitation. The Regime has caused untold suffering and some of our sources say Allen is unhappy with it."
