How do you Import flash from Flask?

Oh dear I think I'm asking a stupid question But if someone helps me that would REALLY help Thanks! :D

flask_app.py 
from flask import Flask, redirect, url_for, render_template

app = Flask(__name__)


@app.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template("index.html")

@app.route('/fishy')
def fishy():
    return redirect(url_for('index'))

import flash

To do that, just add flash to the end of the import statement

from flask import Flask, redirect, url_for, render_template, flash
